Dear VTBCommunity members,

The VTBCommunity Foundation is pleased to announce a series of incredible updates that are set to transform your experience on the VTBDex platform. Committed to endowing our community members with pioneering technology solutions, the VTBCommunity Foundation is delighted to bring you good news about the latest key updates regarding NFTs and blockchain optimizations.

Functionality: NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens)

We are proud to introduce our latest new functionality in the VTBDex: NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), dubbed NFVTBs. This significant enhancement adds a new layer of functionality to our platform bestowing our community, in a friendly user way, a world of opportunities for creators, collectors, and enthusiasts to easily tokenize and securely trade and showcase their digital assets.

NFVTB will empower our community to participate, through the VTBDex, in the world of blockchain-powered digital asset exchange like never before!

With the introduction of NFVTB on our platform, we believe it’s essential to delve into what NFTs are, how they function, and the myriad ways they can revolutionize the digital landscape.

What are NFTs and how do they work?

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are a powerful innovation in the blockchain world that is transforming the way we perceive, trade, and interact with digital assets. They are a specialized type of digital asset that represents ownership or proof of authenticity of a unique item, piece of content, or creation. Each NFT is distinguishable from others and carries metadata that makes it truly one-of-a-kind.

The magic of NFVTBs lies in our underlying blockchain technology. Each NFVTB is created, stored, and verified on our unique blockchain, which is a decentralized and secure digital ledger, making them transparent and immutable, eliminating concerns of counterfeit or duplicate copies. Moreover, ensures that the ownership and transaction history of each NFVTB are publicly verifiable and tamper-proof. Once minted (created), an NFVTB is assigned a one-of-a-kind digital signature, ensuring its authenticity and provenance.

When you own an NFVTB, you essentially hold proof of ownership for the underlying digital asset. This ownership can be bought, sold, or traded on the VTBDex, creating a lively marketplace for digital creations and collectibles.

Exploring the Uses of NFVTBs

The uniqueness and versatility of NFVTBs make them perfectly suited for representing individual digital assets which leads to a remarkable array of use cases across various industries, such as artworks, collectibles, virtual real estate, music, videos, fashion, and more.

Optimization: Data Structure Reduction and Simplification

In our commitment to delivering an optimized and seamless experience, the VTBCommunity Foundation is excited to announce that we implemented substantial data structure reduction and simplification within the VTBDex.

Through meticulous data structure reduction, we’re reducing the size of data blocks within the blockchain. This not only translates to faster transaction processing but also contributes to lower storage requirements and improved network performance. Smaller data structures mean quicker synchronization for nodes and more efficient utilization of resources. Additionally, by simplifying the data structure transactions are processed with greater efficiency. This streamlining minimizes complexities that can lead to network congestion and delays.

We are convinced that these enhancements will not only improve the overall efficiency of the platform but will also contribute to faster transaction processing and reduced network congestion, which translates into a smoother and more reliable user experience.

Conclusion

These successful updates add a significant milestone in the evolution of the VTBDex and the VTBCommunity Blockchain. We are entirely committed to fostering a user-friendly, vibrant, and innovative platform where users can engage with cutting-edge technologies and seize new opportunities in the digital world. The introduction of NFVTBs and blockchain optimization showcases our compromise to delivering a sustainable, secure, and efficient blockchain ecosystem for our valued community members.

Once more, please allow us to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our members for your unwavering support to make the VTBCommunity a success.

Thank you,

VTBCommunity Blockchain Completes Transition to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Consensus Mechanism

in

VTBDex & PoS

 Date: July 26th, 2023

Available at https://vtbdex.com/

VTBCommunity Announcement – VTBDex Technical Updates – VTBCommunity Blockchain Completes Transition to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Consensus Mechanism

Dear VTBCommunity members,

The VTBCommunity Foundation is delighted to announce the successful completion of the transition to the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism on the VTBCommunity Blockchain. This momentous achievement marks a significant milestone in the Foundation’s commitment to providing a robust and sustainable blockchain ecosystem for its valued community members. Through this strategic move, the Foundation aims to foster greater trustworthiness and enhance the overall user experience within the VTBCommunity platform.

What is Proof of Stake (PoS)?

Proof of Stake (PoS) is a blockchain consensus mechanism where participants validate transactions and secure the network by staking their cryptocurrency tokens, reducing energy consumption and increasing efficiency compared to traditional mining methods like Proof of Work (PoW).

In PoW, participants compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles to validate transactions, which requires significant computational power and energy consumption. In contrast, PoS eliminates the need for resource-intensive mining and instead allows validators to be chosen based on the number of tokens they hold and are willing to “stake” as collateral, making it a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach to maintaining a secure blockchain network.

The switch to PoS empowers the VTBCommunity to build a stronger, greener, and more reliable ecosystem, providing its members with enhanced security, efficiency, and participation opportunities.

PoS Migration: Enabling Individuals to Run Nodes

One of the significant advantages of the PoS migration for the VTBCommunity Blockchain is the opportunity it presents for individuals to run nodes. This feature solidifies the network further, as community members can actively participate in securing and validating transactions by running their own nodes. By staking their VTBC tokens, these participants become validators, playing an essential role in the network’s consensus process and enhancing its security and resilience.

Adding Detailed Logging and Chain Monitoring Services

As part of its commitment to continuously improve the blockchain’s performance, the VTBCommunity Foundation has implemented more detailed logging and chain monitoring services. These monitoring services play a vital role in ensuring the blockchain’s stability and reliability:

  • Close Monitoring of Nodes and Storage: Detailed logging and monitoring services allow the Foundation to keep a close eye on the health and performance of individual nodes and storage systems. This real-time monitoring ensures that nodes are running optimally and that potential issues are detected and resolved promptly.
  • Traffic and Demand Monitoring: The Foundation closely monitors network traffic and demand for scaling. This proactive approach allows the team to anticipate and address any increased demand on the network, ensuring smooth and efficient transaction processing.
  • Node Management and Maintenance: With detailed logging, the Foundation can efficiently manage and maintain its nodes. This proactive maintenance approach helps prevent potential downtime and ensures that the blockchain remains operational and accessible to its community members.

Recap: Balanced Total Supply through Token Burning

To recapitulate on its official announcement made on the 27th of June on its official Telegram channel, the VTBCommunity Foundation created 1 million VTBC tokens as rewards for participants engaging in Proof of Stake (PoS) activities during its maintenance phase. However, this token creation led to an increase in the Total Supply, reaching 41 million VTBC. To ensure a balanced and equitable distribution, the Foundation proactively burned 1 million VTBC tokens from the Foundation’s wallet, effectively reducing the Total Supply back to 40 million VTBC. This prudent action aims to maintain a harmonious token economy and reinforces the Foundation’s dedication to transparency and fair distribution within its blockchain network.

Advancing Towards Integrity and Reliability

With the completion of the token-burning process, the VTBCommunity project takes a significant stride towards achieving a reliable blockchain ecosystem. The PoS consensus mechanism ensures that participants can actively contribute to the network’s security and validation by staking their VTBC tokens. This innovative approach empowers community members to play an integral role in the decision-making process and ensures the continued integrity and reliability of the VTBCommunity Blockchain.

Benefits to VTBCommunity Members

The successful transition to the PoS consensus mechanism brings an array of benefits to the VTBCommunity members:

  • Greater Network Security: The PoS consensus enhances the network’s security and resilience by encouraging active participation and stakes from community members, effectively deterring malicious actors.
  • Energy Efficiency: Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work (PoW) systems, PoS reduces the energy consumption required for mining, making it an eco-friendly alternative.
  • Incentivized Participation: By staking VTBC tokens, community members receive rewards, creating a thriving ecosystem that encourages active engagement and knowledge sharing.

Gratitude to the Community

The Foundation extends its heartfelt gratitude to each and every VTBCommunity member for your unwavering support and commitment throughout this remarkable journey. Your active involvement and engagement have been instrumental in driving us forward, and the VTBCommunity Foundation is thrilled to have you as part of this growing community.

As the Foundation forges ahead in shaping the present and future of the VTBDex, it remains steadfast in its dedication to delivering cutting-edge blockchain solutions and fostering a dynamic and inclusive ecosystem.

With continued support from its valued community members, the VTBCommunity Foundation looks forward to propelling the VTBCommunity project to greater heights and creating a pioneering blockchain ecosystem that stands at the forefront of innovation.

Conclusion

The successful transition to the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism marks a significant milestone for the VTBCommunity Blockchain. With PoS migration allowing individuals to run nodes and the implementation of detailed logging and chain monitoring services, the VTBCommunity Foundation reinforces its commitment to delivering a sustainable, secure, and efficient blockchain ecosystem for its valued community members.

Thank you,

INTRODUCTION

The VTBCommunity Foundation (VTB – “Validus Tutis Beneficium” stands for “Strong Secure Benefits”) is a non-profit entity established in Gibraltar in September of 2021 that offers a revolutionary financial assembly and predictable ecosystem developed as a bold response to the dynamically inflationary money mechanic. It will perpetuate the principal objective of providing expectable economic value and unmatched stability to its users based on temporality, capital injection, and transactional numericity.

In its development stages, the VTBCommunity Foundation has been through extended periods of complex restructuring and reassessment to evolve its financial proposal, ensuring stability, scalability, and predictability.

“The new website for the VTBCommunity Foundation is located at vtbcommunity.org, and it comes with a completely renovated technical document, the VTBCommunity Project White Paper that is readily available for download at the foundation website.”

VTBCOMMUNITY WEBSITE LAUNCH & MIGRATION ANNOUNCEMENT

It is with immense pleasure that we reach out to the community to announce the successful migration of our decentralized exchange to its final stage, the VTBDex.

We also introduce the new foundational structure, technicalities, and new frontiers of our endeavours as an integrative financial proposal, the VTBCommunity Foundation.

2021 will go down in history as the rebirth of the project. The Foundation was aware earlier this year that the entire system needed to be rebuilt from scratch, as it was fundamentally impossible to try and save the old to make it look like the new.

You may download the VTB Announcement PDF by going to bit.ly/vtb-migration.

So, we had no choice but to redo everything and that is exactly what we did.

The new token system is now titled “VTB.” Therefore, we will use the VTBC and VTBT terminology as the dual-token root to work with.
It is essential to emphasise that it is an entirely new project and that everything is completely different from past iterations.

VTBDEX

The new Decentralized Exchange is now VTBDex and operates under the vtbdex.com domain with an optimised infrastructure, an enhanced performance, and an extended e-wallet compatibility.

VTBCOMMUNITY FOUNDATION

The new website for the VTBCommunity Foundation is located at vtbcommunity.org, and it comes with a completely renovated technical document, the VTBCommunity Project White Paper that is readily available for download at the foundation website.

*Note: The two websites are now the official websites of the Foundation. Additionally, all social media channels appropriately listed on such websites are in place as the Community’s only official accounts. Anything that is not linked on the official websites is not and will never be considered as a part of the VTBCommunity Foundation.

Please make sure to share these facts with other members of the community that you may be in touch with.

 

 

It is the reason why the VTBCommunity Foundation has decided to perform a complete overhaul & reestablishment of its solutions, primarily considering our community members’ financial well-being and, of course, staying true to our core values and overall mission as a non-profit entity with our distinctive forward-thinking envisioning.

IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO STATE THAT WE NOW HAVE A PROPRIETARY BLOCKCHAIN, THE VTB BLOCKCHAIN.

This fact is something that you will be able to read in our White Paper.

To build a business ecosystem around the VTB, we needed to ensure that we secured the Foundation and that the project (token) would be protected in time.

In the coming weeks, you will see announcements of the progress and the expected beginning dates of the different parts of that ecosystem.

 

THE FORUM & TELEGRAM

We have also launched our VTB Forum section where feature requests, announcements, and traders corner, among others, will become active and prominent sections of our website, acting as a repository of information for every VTBCommunity Member to consult.

You can visit the VTB Forum by going to vtbcommunity.org/forum and you may find the VTB Forum’s Rules at vtbcommunity.org/forums/topic/vtb-forum-rules.

On the other hand, we are now attending to VTBCommunity members on our new Official Telegram Group, offered at t.me/VTBCommunity. You may find the rules for our Telegram Group on bit.ly/vtb-telegram-rules

THE BENEFITS

The Foundation designed this project to bring stable value-added assets to people, businesses, and merchants alike at the lowest possible risk while reducing the impact of an increasing cost of living. Also, this project allows the individual to be intentional about the financial system they wish to use instead of using the default. Price predictability, stable low fees, and simplified access to blockchain assets are salient benefits that set it apart. To drive the use of the asset, VTB is working with a profit-driven entity, whose goal is to offer financial tools in a business ecosystem delivering unique features to the community, such as a crypto advance program, a merchant platform that includes a fee-less payment system, a reward program for the merchants, and many others incentives for the users.

VTB is not only building the foundation for an ecosystem; it is also creating the associated network that follows. This is a complete project comprising an interactive movement between assets and users: assets need users, and users require these assets to work for them; it just makes sense.

Additionally, VTB welcomes businesses, for-profit, non-profit, and even governments so that, thrust by their utilization, the fundamental asset will continue to grow accordingly.

Coherent with the blockchain space of tomorrow, VTB is honing its efforts to drive solutions for several of the barriers mentioned above. These solutions result in a blockchain-based architecture that not only people can use in an easy, low-risk manner, but businesses can as well by removing some of their overhead costs in an equally low-risk environment. The ease of use allows adopters to utilize their smartphones to perform these VTB interactions.

Data Transfer Technologies

in

Digital technologies have propelled our every communication and transaction into a new era of interconnection where data is transmitted rapidly from one part of the globe to another. In that same manner, electronic transactions are gradually replacing the need for tangible bills. Indeed, money has become increasingly virtual and synonymous with mere data transmission, especially with the emergence and expansion of the digital economy.

Having become mainstream nearly around the world, these data transfer technologies now require an expansion of their availed infrastructures, enabling users to move value in a safer, more accessible and utmost convenient manner.

Globally, people are seeking improvements in the current financial system. According to a study conducted in 2015 by Accenture gathering 2000 senior decision-makers around 15 countries, their use of analytics and Cloud-based infrastructure had increased by 34% and 30%, respectively, and in doing so, their primary concerns were security and keeping pace with digital advancements. In another more recent study, because of the surge of digital network use during our global crisis, masses ask for easy access, fast delivery and increased security for everything from bill payments to sending money to loved ones without going to a financial institution.

These necessities have driven the development of online banking and other electronic payment systems; many will show up in web searches. Money, assets, and wealth have been changing, and the next generation of financial instruments and vehicles will likely be built using something like regulated blockchain technology that enforces laws and protects people from fraud.

Meanwhile, a simple internet search will show that banks are starting to adopt blockchain technology globally. Having already proven its effectiveness and given its global demand, the time has come to expand upon its initial design and avail it to the world. In that respect, we believe that our project, VTBCommunity (VTB), cannot only achieve this task but provide other innovative financial opportunities.

VTB is designed to advance the digital money infrastructure by offering a stable and predictable growth asset. It is more straightforward, user-friendly and renders a rich end-user experience while lessening the often-cumbersome cost burden otherwise charged by the current financial systems and some alternatives.

More specifically, the VTB system is based on methodically increasing the asset value, thus progressively increasing users’ net worthwhile charging a fixed fee within the VTB system. This enables an expanded purchasing power to meet their goods and services requirements. Although its inherent vision may seem somewhat utopian, or as some may think, “too good to be true,” the fact is that its design is meant to transform the financial system’s past four to five decades of macroeconomics (since Simon Kuznets won the 1972 Nobel Prize in Economics) into something new. Take inflation, for instance, even with its annual fluctuations, the cost of living has continuously risen, and this year, 2021, has seen the highest yet (macrotrends.net). In terms of perspective, the CPI inflation calculator estimated that the purchasing power of US$1.00 in 2000 had decreased to 0.60 cents in 2021[1]. That being true, one could also say that similar assets to VTBC already exist, such as “Risk-free Bonds” typically seen as United States Treasury Bonds, but the ROI is far from sufficient to help anyone become financially comfortable let alone independent.

How is it remedied?

Let’s face it, whatever increase in wages employees have received or sales generated by most Small to Medium Enterprises (SME), their bottom line has flattened due to an equal or sometimes higher inflation rate simultaneously applied on goods and services for at least the last 20 years. This decreased buying power dwindles most people’s potential to live within their means. Home prices, for example, have become unaffordable to most, while the cost of food, another basic need, has substantially risen due to a high rate of inflation across many countries. Unfortunately, this never-ending cycle in a financial system serving its ends, not humankind’s, can only lead to an increasing lack and poorer societies.

The question that begs an answer is, “Why is this happening?”—followed by perhaps an even more important one, “How is it remedied?”. This project has considered these questions and found a way to transform them into remedies. Simply put, the refined and efficient solution is to take the rising cost of living and apply it to a system that works for the VTB users (community members) instead of against them. In this way, such community members can buy goods and services, food, housing, etc., in a safe, secure, and abundant manner using a new infrastructure built on blockchain.

Most debates about money are philosophical, but the real question is, “Are people willing to adopt positive changes?” or “What are they willing to accept in exchange for labor and or products?”. Recently, people in prominent positions are now accepting Bitcoin for their wages. Realizing that fiat money is only backed by debt, would everyone be willing to continue using it, even at a loss? Or would they happily switch to a medium of exchange based on growth and abundance? A brilliant person once said about finance and banking, “These are man-made rules; they are not natural laws, such as gravity.”

It means that humans can create any exchange system for their goods and services. VTB has created a system that will generate abundance for its users and holders.

In short, the VTB contribution to the digital money ecosystem is integrated into existing technologies utilizing a “layer-2” methodology using a sidechain pattern to ensure uncompromised security and stability. Moreover, this innovative system utilizes Ethereum and IPFS technologies to back up its data with transparency. In this manner, VTB provides a secure environment. For those already acquainted with cryptocurrencies, it is similar to an NFT where a token can be seen in a decentralized environment by accessing IPFS addresses through Etherscan. This transformation to the next level of digital money, assets and wealth was inspired by the now renowned giants, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Now is a time for the next generation of cryptocurrencies to meet the financial demand of the world with projects like VTBCommunity.
