Which current xx network communities are you a member of?
  • Twitter
Are you an active member of those communities? Yes
What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? For the protection of user metadata, and the ability to counter quantum computers.
Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? Filecoin And Polkadot and Swarm
Have you ever attended a blockchain conference? If so, which one(s)? None
Do you have past experience managing communities or creating content to be distributed across social media? Please enter details for all with which you are comfortable or have experience:
    As part of growing the xx network community, are you willing to create content as part of operating an xx network BetaNet node? Examples would be node setup & on-boarding review vlog post, bi-weekly twitter update, medium review of on-going node operational process, etc. 3-4
    Would you be interested in helping to lead the development of the next xx network community? Yes
    Why do you want to run a node in the xx network
    • To protect the privacy of political speech
    • To protect private personal communication around health and lifestyle issues from mass surveillance and abuse by centralized organizations
    • To promote quantum secure distributed systems
    • To earn xx coins
    • To help build David Chaum's vision of a decentralized world
    • To help build true digital cash to fuel a decentralized economy
    • To reverse the political centralization of legal, police, and military organizations which favor the wealthy and powerful
    What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? Our team has very professional blockchain operation experience, which can fully guarantee the normal operation of the xx-network nodes we participate in.
    As best as you can given currently available information, please describe the value proposition of the xx network platform and how it differs from other current blockchain solutions. xx network is a quantum-resistant blockchain xx network realizes the privacy protection of user metadata for the first time The xx network constructs a high-performance, high-security privacy network at the bottom, and realizes value transmission, smart contracts, MPC, etc. on top of it, which is the infrastructure of the future decentralized society xx-messager is already available
    Privacy by Default is a goal of the xx network Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? Solving privacy protection on the network, and solving privacy protection on the application layer is more efficient and safer. The existing major networks are controlled by large companies. It is almost impossible for them to get rid of economic interests and protect users' data privacy through self-regulation. Privacy should be owned and controlled by this person. The current structure of the centralized network is required and demand-oriented, and it can only be achieved on a decentralized network. This is the goal of the xx network.
    In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? The decentralized system is built on a public-private key encryption system. Quantum computers can easily crack the public-private key encryption system, and it is likely to destroy most of the current public chains such as Bitcoin. We don't know when the quantum computer will arrive, but it will definitely come, so we need to prepare for that day and find a decentralized system that can protect our digital assets from quantum computer attacks. Since centralized systems do not all use public-private key encryption systems, quantum computers will not have a great impact on them, or centralized systems have more centralized solutions for anti-quantum computers.

    good application with proper specs. has my vote

    strong applicatoin - my vote

    A good application and location. You have my conditional support. Please take note of the follow
    ing:

    A quick question: are you applying for more than one node? Hopefully you are aware there is a strict 1 KYC’d person per node policy?

    https://staging-forum.xx.network/t/orange-xi-node-application-12707118999/5562

    It’s seems to me that I’ve already seen this answers :upside_down_face:

    Yes,I aware the KYC’d policy of xx-network and i will flow this policy.Thanks your question.
