How El Salvador Is Fixing Chivo Wallet, Trying To Get Bitcoin Adoption Back On Track By Jaime Garcia Chivo is the official bitcoin wallet of El Savador, the first country using bitcoin as legal tender. Unfortunately, when the Bitcoin law came into effect, thousands of thrilled Salvadorans expecting to download the software to experience how would it be to transact with a decentralized and unstoppable monetary system came across download delays, challenges in the identity verification process and problems transacting over the Lightning Network. Fortunately, later on, El Savador’s government started working with AlphaPoint, an experienced blockchain and financial services technology company and, as a result, Chivo wallet infrastructure is now overall stable and fully functional. Many well-known issues have been addressed and numerous upgrades were made to enhance the user experience. Now the biggest challenge to Bitcoin adoption in El Salvador is to rebuild trust with users who may have had a bad experience early on. |

Proof Of Reserves - The Making Of A Bitcoin Industry Standard By Mario Gibney One of Bitcoin’s main goals is to reconstruct the monetary scheme and allow you to become your own bank so that you and only you can exercise any kind of power over your capital. If Bitcoin is going to become the standard for the world's financial system, there will be custodians. There will always be lenders, exchanges and yield service providers that will be required to hold Bitcoin on behalf of clients. Fortunately, Bitcoin is a publicly verifiable asset and it is totally auditable. This allows users to demand transparency from Bitcoin service providers so that they periodically publish undeniable proof of the asset reserves in their possession. Proof of Reserves is a concept that has been growing in popularity and has become a feature that clients can, and should expect from any Bitcoin company. Instead of resigning ourselves to the risks inherent in custodial models, we can strive to standardize solutions and mitigations to alleviate those risks and ultimately help to drive faster and broader adoption. |
