Why do you want to be a node? We hope to build a more efficient, more secure, more private and more decentralized blockchain network through XX network.
How did you originally hear about the xx network? Reddit
Which current xx network communities are you a member of?
  • Twitter
  • Discord
  • Facebook
  • BetaNet Forum
Are you an active member of those communities? Yes
What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? Because xxnetwork can build a new generation network that can protect user privacy and security, and can resist the threat of quantum computing, I am very interested in it.
Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? polkadot,filecoin,bzz,xch
Have you ever attended a blockchain conference? If so, which one(s)? I participate in the Blockchain Conference every year, and I will participate in the 2021 World Blockchain Conference (Hangzhou).
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:
  • Other: There are many contents in Chinese communities, such as wechat, blog and microblog.
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. In China, I can publish XX articles on the WeChat public account.
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 contribute to a promising project
  • To undo the centralization of the internet by big tech companies
  • 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? Distributed network storage technology is to store data scattered on multiple independent machines and equipment, which improves the reliability, availability and scalability of the system, and also improves the efficiency of information transmission.
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, for the first time, realized a low-latency, high-performance full privacy network.
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 underlying network is more efficient and safer than solving privacy protection on the application layer.
In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? Quantum computing's super computing and password deciphering capabilities have a huge impact on the current standardized passwords, directly affecting the current network and information security in various fields, and it is likely to destroy most of the current public chains such as Bitcoin.
