Biweekly update 12th February- 26th February
This is not financial advice.
During the last two weeks Enigma showed little activity in media landscape. The main keynote of Enigma’s activity was an interview with Max Brody, the co-founder and CEO of Cent, who talks with Tor Bair about why he started Cent, his team, the future of the Cent platform and whether he sees Facebook as a competitor — or as a danger to society. To continue, Tony Sheng, a prolific writer in the decentralization space, talks with Tor Bair, Head of Growth at EnigmaMPC, about setting and valuing metrics for early-stage decentralized projects — and how growth, ownership, VR, and games are all interconnected. Finally, Enigma launched its first Twitter AMA.
Social encounters
Enigma’s podcast “Decentralize This!” features Max Brody, the co-founder and CEO of Cent, a social network built on Ethereum that aims to get creators paid directly for sharing their work and wisdom. On this episode Max talks with Tor about why he started Cent, how his team has chosen what parts of the product to decentralize, why he believes art and artists will proliferate on the Cent platform, and whether he sees Facebook as a competitor — or as a danger to society.

The earliest that will happen is 2020. “Something that people tend to miss is that we will have a blockchain in 2019 (before Defiant), but it’d still be pegged to Ethereum so we don’t need a token swap yet. The swap comes in 2020, but it’s the least interesting part of the technical roadmap IMHO” ~ Enigma Project Official.
