										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">Welcome to The Stack CafeTM &#8212; A Small Step for Blockchains, A Giant Leap for Blockstack &#8211; Stacks Genesis Block and Stacks token transaction.  Not long ago, Blockstack launched a major update to its architecture &#8211; Stacks blockchain v1,  and just recently, successfully executed a transfer of some Stacks tokens from one Stacks address to another Stacks address.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">The Stacks Genesis Block release was designed to smooth the path and further facilitate the building of decentralized applications (dApps) by developers.  In addition, the latest iteration also enabled the distribution of Stacks tokens to pre-existing purchasers and the registration of smart contracts and Stacks tokens.  For more on the latest software release, please visit the Blockstack <a href="https://forum.blockstack.org/t/blockstack-annual-hard-fork-2018/6518" target="_blank" rel="noopener">forum</a> page.</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And, to go along with the latest release, Blockstack performed a Stacks token transfer a couple of days ago.  The Blockstack Stacks token network is now live.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">Welcome to the Stack Cafe<span style="font-size: 10pt;"><sup>TM </sup></span>— Blockstack Portland is hosting another Meetup on May 16, 2018 &#8211; Superchain. Previously, we discussed this meetup group in this post <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-meetups-happening-worldwide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>. </span><br />

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Well, Blockstack Portland is busy preparing for its next Meetup tonight &#8211; May 16, 2018.  And, tonight will feature an upcoming platform being built for Blockstack &#8211; Superchain.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Per Blockstack Portland, &#8220;Superchain is a Blockchain platform that aims to fuse Blockchain with Cloud Computing. With Superchain, you get a interface similar to AWS or Google Cloud: a cli, web console, services like identity, storage, functions, pubsub, etc.&#8221;  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Looks very interesting and appears that the Team at Blockstack Portland is working together to bring this to the Blockstack ecosystem.<br />
</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">Welcome to the Stack Cafe<sup>TM </sup>&#8212; Blockstack: UPDATE to the Blockstack Community Rewards Program &#8211; Join in, contribute to Blockstack and receive rewards for your contribution.  It has been about a month since we visited the Blockstack Community Rewards and it looks like Team Blockstack and <a href="http://prism.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Prism.io</a> have been busy &#8211; more ways to contribute and the list of contributors/rewards has grown.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1941" src="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-750x574.png" alt="" width="750" height="574" srcset="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-750x574.png 750w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-300x230.png 300w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-768x588.png 768w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute.png 1216w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As we mentioned in an earlier post <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-blockstack-community-rewards-program/">here</a>, the </span><strong><a href="https://contribute.blockstack.org/">Blockstack Community Rewards Program</a> </strong><span style="color: #000000;">is a way to reward community members for the value they bring to the ecosystem.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">It looks like the ways to contribute has grown and the list of contributors and rewards has grown too.  Let&#8217;s take a look at what is new to the world of Blockstack contributions and stacks rewards.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For example, it appears that Blockstack PBC has upped the ante and is offering a $1,000,000 in grants of $100,000 each to ten teams to create a new Social Network.  Blockstack PBC puts it this way:<br />
</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;No single entity should have unilateral say over how 2 billion people connect and communicate. The current centralized model of social networking has created a stranglehold on our collective consciousness, communication, and friend network. But we’re at an inflection point — a moment where people can reclaim control of the way they network.&#8221;</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Blockstack PBC will even award stacks to the person that pushes out a tweet or post about the same initiative &#8211; Request for a Social Network&#8221; &#8211;</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Sometimes the best founders can be hidden, that&#8217;s why we want your help in getting the message out to extraordinary founders looking to build decentralized social networks using Blockstack.  Click ahead to learn more!&#8221;</span></p></blockquote>
<p><a href="https://contribute.blockstack.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-1941 size-large" src="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-750x574.png" alt="" width="750" height="574" srcset="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-750x574.png 750w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-300x230.png 300w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute-768x588.png 768w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blockstack-Contribute.png 1216w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The initiative promoted by Blockstack PBC for the $1,000,000 grants for a new social network can be found</span> <a href="https://blockstack.org/blog/a-1m-request-for-social-networks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1942" src="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Social-Network-for-Blockstack-750x677.png" alt="" width="750" height="677" srcset="https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Social-Network-for-Blockstack-750x677.png 750w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Social-Network-for-Blockstack-300x271.png 300w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Social-Network-for-Blockstack-768x694.png 768w, https://thestackcafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Social-Network-for-Blockstack.png 1024w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">So, if you are up to the task or have the team up to the task, follow the links above and build the social network for the decentralized internet on Blockstack.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Some of the other tasks that one might be able to contribute to include feedback on tutorials, writing a blog post, signing up for Blockstack, unit testing, de-lint(ing), and many others.<br />
</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">We know that bounties for app development are critical to our growth. Just as critical is the participation of the broader community to support infrastructure maintenance and education of the market. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">We’re confident that this program will help user experiences of decentralized apps rival that of experiences we’re familiar with today. But this time, the applications won’t have unilateral say over your online experiences.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">The Blockstack Community Meetup event is a great opportunity to meet the people behind Blockstack and kickoff the week for Consensus 2018 in New York City.<br />

<p><span style="color: #000000;">A little bit about Blockstack from Blockstack:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p class="mb-5"><span style="color: #000000;">Blockstack is a new internet for decentralized apps that you access through the <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://blockstack.org/install" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Blockstack Browser</a>.

<p><span style="color: #000000;">A little bit about Consensus 2018 from Consenus (<a href="https://www.coindesk.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Coindesk</a>):  </span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000000;">CoinDesk is proud to present our 4th annual blockchain technology summit, May 14-16, 2018 at the New York Hilton Midtown. Consensus 2018 will feature 250+ speakers and 4,000+ attendees from the leading industry startups, investors, financial institutions, enterprise tech leaders, and academic and policy groups who are building the foundations of the blockchain and digital currency economy.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">So, if you are interested in learning more about Consensus 2018, blockchain, digital economy, Blockstack and more&#8230; Go check out the Blockstack community meetup tomorrow at Houston Hall at 6:30 p.m.  Meet Team Blockstack and learn about the decentralized ecosystem being built by the same.<br />

<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you are in New York City this next week, and are interested in anything to do with blockchain, bitcoin, Blockstack or more, Consensus 2018 may be a good place to visit.  And, at a minimum, if you want to talk to the Team Blockstack, about Blockstack and what it is building, go to the meetup on Monday, May 14, 2018.</span></p>

<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000000;">As shown above, it appears that Blockstack has taken a step closer to bringing the stacks token to fruition by the release of the public Stacks test-net.  Blockstack has released the token testnet to let developers and others experiment with using the stacks token on the ecosystem.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Experimenters on the test-net can:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Send and receive Stacks tokens</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Buy names and namespaces with Stacks tokens</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Register subdomains</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Use the Blockstack command-line tool</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">To get started with using the token test-net, please visit this link <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://github.com/jcnelson/cli-blockstack" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> for more information on the the command line interface tool used in any testing done.<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;"> We will try and do a quick overview of open collective for you.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">With <a href="https://opencollective.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open collective</a>, the developers put forth an open source platform to help open source projects that have created open collectives to raise money and share their expenses in a transparent way.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;"><a href="https://opencollective.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open collective</a> further describes itself in these words:<br />
</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p data-reactid=".0.1.3">&#8220;<span style="color: #000000;">OpenCollective enables groups to quickly set up a collective, raise funds and manage them transparently.</span></p>
<p data-reactid=".0.1.4"><span style="color: #000000;">We want all those seeds to have a chance to grow, to bring their ideas to life. We believe everyone should have the tools to create the organizations of tomorrow. And we are dedicating ourselves to making that happen!&#8221;</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Sounds great, and it is open source and transparent. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And, it appears to help solve the problem of raising resources to fund new ideas whether the group is small or large.  This type of project may blend in well with other open source projects e.g. <a href="http://blockstack.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blockstack</a>.(or dApps on top of blockstack e.g. <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-souq-a-new-dapp-for-voluntary-associations-launches/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Souq</a>)<br />

<p><span style="color: #000000;">We have not tried out <a href="https://opencollective.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open collective</a> but will give it a go at some point (when we do we will try and provide a brief overview). But, it looks like a great tool to help with the transparent crowdfunding space. In the meantime, go give it a try and give us and/or <a href="https://opencollective.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open collective</a> some feedback.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">In addition, <a href="https://opencollective.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open collective</a> is open source.  </span><span style="color: #000000;">We like that and try to promote open source. See our post on open source <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-developers-using-open-source-projects-to-bootstrap-dapps/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And, perhaps it may be a tool that can be used on the Blockstack ecosystem (e.g. a decentralized voluntary association crowdfunding &#8211; or perhaps it may be a good chance for collaboration with another dApp that does the same type of thing for voluntary associations and crowdfunding &#8211; <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-souq-a-new-dapp-for-voluntary-associations-launches/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cryptocracy</a>/souq). </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">Welcome to the Stack Cafe<span style="font-size: 10pt;"><sup>TM </sup></span>— Blockstack Evangelists: A Toolkit to help Evangelist and anyone else learn and help in the Evangelist endeavor.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Another very important part &#8211; a vital part &#8211; of the Blockstack ecosystem is the Evangelist. The Evangelist is person on the front line, so to speak, promoting and growing the Blockstack ecosystem in their own backyard. Evangelists are making it happen in the real world, everyday. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As Blockstack states &#8211; &#8220;Everyday[ ] Evangelists are helping educate and build community around the decentralized web movement.&#8221; A list of some of the Blockstack Evangelists may be found <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://thestackcafe.com/update-blockstack-evangelists-team-grows-the-developer-supporter-growth-partner-promoter-evangelist-for-blockstack/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;">Toolkit for the Evangelist</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Today, we will provide a brief overview of the toolkit for Evangelists that has been posted on the blockstack forum by Mitchell Cuevas.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As Mr. Cuevas opines (re: Evangelist Toolkit): &#8220;This is a resource for Evangelists that will be regularly updated with new materials as they become available. It contains things like templates, presentations, links, and more.&#8221;  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The links put together by Mr. Cuevas appear to cover many of the items that may be needed to get started (and for current Evangelist for updates) with Blockstack as an Evangelist.  If you are interested in exploring more about Blockstack and Evangelists, go check out the Evangelist Toolkit.<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">Welcome to The Stack Cafe<span style="font-size: 12px;"><sup>TM </sup></span>&#8212; LessPass &#8211; a Stateless Password Manager.  <a href="https://lesspass.com/#/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LessPass</a> is an <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-developers-using-open-source-projects-to-bootstrap-dapps/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open source</a> project to use/generate passwords.  And, it looks like a neat open source password project worth checking out.  We will try and do a quick overview of LessPass for you.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">With LessPass, the developers put forth an open source password manager that allows for remembering &#8220;one master password to access your passwords, anywhere, anytime.&#8221;  </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;">LessPass further describes itself in these words:<br />
</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p id="4c27" class="graf graf--p graf-after--p"><span style="color: #000000;">LessPass generates unique passwords for websites, email accounts, or anything else based on a <em class="markup--em markup--p-em">master password</em> and information you know.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">LessPass is different from other password managers that you can find on the Internet because:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">It does not save your passwords in a database</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">It does not need to sync your devices</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">It is open source (source code can be audited).&#8221;</span></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Sounds great, and it is stateless.  Stateless &#8211; via a general definition &#8211; &#8220;In computing, a stateless protocol is a</span> <a class="mw-redirect" title="Communications protocol" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_protocol">communications protocol</a> <span style="color: #000000;">in which no information is retained by either sender or receiver, meaning that they are agnostic of the state of one another. &#8221; (See this link</span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateless_protocol" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a><span style="color: #000000;">)</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And, it appears to help solve the problem of having to remember multiple passwords, breaches, syncing and the code is perhaps more robust based on the audit-ability of the same (<a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-developers-using-open-source-projects-to-bootstrap-dapps/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">open source</a>).  This type of project may blend in well with other open source projects e.g. <a href="http://blockstack.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blockstack</a>. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">A rundown &#8211; on how it works &#8211; from one of the developers can be found at this link <a href="https://blog.lesspass.com/lesspass-how-it-works-dde742dd18a4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Below, we provide some screenshots and links for learning more about LessPass.  We hope you find this useful.  </span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">We have not tried out LessPass but will give it a go at some point (when we do we will try and provide a brief overview).  But, it looks like a great tool to help with the password conundrum.  In the meantime, go give it a try and give us and/or LessPass some feedback.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">In addition, LessPass is not trying to take advantage of anyone.  LessPass prides itself on</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">being open source open source (GPLv3 license)</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">refuses to install cookies, analysis tools on our applications </span>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">(<strong class="markup--strong markup--p-strong">there are no Google Analytics, or links to external services on our tools</strong>).</span></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">We like that and try to promote open source and no tracking etc.  See our posts on open source, licenses and online protection <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-developers-using-open-source-projects-to-bootstrap-dapps/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>, <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/blockstack-developers-corner-it-is-has-been-developed-do-i-need-a-license/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> and <a href="https://thestackcafe.com/online-privacy-website-tools-that-may-help-protect-you-while-you-use-the-internet/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And, perhaps it may be a tool that can be used on the Blockstack ecosystem (e.g. a decentralized password manager).   If you have not tried out Blockstack, you can find some links below to help you get started in the decentralized internet platform for identity, security and storage.  Gotta have the Blockstack browser &#8211;<br />
