I commented on an older video about your audio quality. This one is much improved. As always, thank you for your vids. This explanation is so good, my friend.
I had no clue about computers and better yet nothing about blockchain and because of your channel I found out that am very good at understanding your explanations. Now am coding and am a crypto trader. Changed my life and am from the hood 954.. thanks man keep doing ya thing my g
Hey Ivan...Thank you so much.....Your video is a very detailed and simple language. The way you explained the protocol is very simple. I got it Man...Thank you for making...❤
Thank you for sharing! That's very helpful. You clearly identified that coins are the native digital asset over the network, which are defined by the protocol while tokens are higher-level digital assets built on top of that and defined by the smart contracts.
IVAN! This is another GREAT Presentation you have for us to see! Damm I Admire all of you Young guys and Gals who are aware that cryptos are serious....and you have so much info and wisdom you share..... I got my first ones at 50 cents USD someone stole that tote I had my info in and my computer! TRUST NO ONE! Ivan, here in the USA a lot of ignorant people have no idea that at one time a Bartender in Reno told a Gold Miner from California , who had turned in his gold for FRN's across the country over in Washington D.C. that he was "not going to accept some silly piece of PAPER with NUMBERS on it for Whiskey and a room! "It's Gold or the Road my friend" he said! WELL SOON it is going to be " It's CRYPTO or No Go!" You will HAVE to because the government is going to do what ever it can, illegally of course to TAX us on what IS NOT Theirs to tax us upon! Value for Value is what this CRYPTO Thing comes down to! SIMPLE< most people have no freaking clue as to what you are talking about here UNTIL NOW!!! I want to talk with you. Jeffrey Allen Storrs
Hi Ivan. BTC has token. There is a network called RSK, that adds a sidecar to BTC allowing to have smart contract over BTC ( rBTC that is a BTC over RSK). There is a nice ecosystem called Money on Chain, that even has a stable coin(DoC Dollar on Chain) and a BTCx2 leveraged position. Check RSK and Money-on-chian. Cheers. Great channel
Hi Ivan, you are a great guy and I love your knowledge. Just a quick suggestion: could you do a section with condensed video info, so I don't have to waste half the time listening to stuff I don't need. A 'quick and to the point' video is worth tonnes. Kind of like: 1. Blah, blah, blah, 2. Blah, blah, blah and so forth, bullet point focussed info on every topic. I have you on 1.5 speed and it still takes too long ;-). Thanks and keep up the good work.
Hi Ivan great video. I had a few questions after watching your video. Question.1. How do you know if a crypto is in token form or coin form. How do you know if an ICO has already made the swap or not. Question 2. What happens when you send a Coin to a Myetherwallet that holds ERC20 tokens. example: (You buy Qtum from an exchange which you got was a coin because it has already did the swap. Then you deposit it to your Myetherwallet because you did that before when they were tokens). Question 3. For say you bought tokens from an exchange and you send it off to Myetherwallet and hold it for 1 year. The prices go up and you want to sell it now, except that the token has already turned into a coin. Only you didn't know because you don't follow that crypto new daily. You then send your Token back to the exchange you bought it at to sell. What will happen to the Tokens? Will they actually make it to the Exchange and be auto swapped into coins or are they going to disappear? Thanks for the help.
Ivan: Do we need coins to run distributed applications over the network? Can blockchain-based solutions exist without coins? Is the coin just a driving factor for more people to join in or it has other important roles?
Thanks !!! Ur the best 🙂 i havent programmed in a while and want to get back to it. I hope u can provide a high level instruction on how to create smart contracts (high level)
Awesome video, I learned a lot. You're very gifted in explaining technical things to non technical people. Careful not to say "I know this is confusing to you" too much, people might take offense, or worse, get annoyed, lol. :)
Ivan I'd have a request for you to cover a different but also interesting topic - what do you think would happen, if the current system of power decides to implement pervasive filtering of crypto-related communication? I'm talking filtering on ISP level in EU, USA, etc.. Do you think the crypto world can overcome this as well?
@Ivanontech IOTA does not use Block Chain, it uses the Tangle, there is no block and no chain, when you create a transaction you must verify 2 others, that's all. So there is no need for miners as with blockchain.
So, the way you are describing this, the graphic is up-side-down, built on top of, but it's below in the picture!.................................. So, Blockchain=technology; Protocol=language with rules; Coin=arrangement of the blockchain; Token=description of usage of the coin. IS THIS CORRECT? I'm just trying to reduce my understanding to a sentence. Thanks for your good work!
thanks for the video, BUT could u please short and surmised the topic and just go directly to the topic, delete those branch and just focus on it , you doing great. good luck.
First I want to thank you for all your videos. I consider myself as a newbie and I have a question about this topic: does every protocol based on blockchain needs a coin? Or can there be blockchain protocol without coins?
you could have a blockchain without a currency, but it would then just remain a theoretical solution to the byzantine generals problem, possibly kept running out of academic interest, yet fail to attract the computing power necessary for making proof of work run stable the alternative ways of securing a blockchain, such as proof of stake even more so depend on monetization, as they fall apart when there is nothing to put at stake
AnarchistMetalhead thank you for your answer 🙏. At this moment I don’t understand you (yet), but I now will look what the Byzantine generals problem is. Hopefully I will soon understand your answer
@@TourismKomodo I don't know if I am late to the party r not, What AnarchistMetalhead is trying to say is that It is the coin that makes the blockchain sustainable because that is the incentive. That is the reward you get for validating transactions and mining new blocks on the chain.
I want to note that the TokenGo project has a convenient and understandable Bounty, as well as a very interesting bonus referral program. The project has good prospects, and now a very favorable price for a token.
thanks for your explanation. However I have now a follow up questions, since I actually view Ethereum and Neo as platforms. I come up with this since Origin Trail claims to be a Protocol and TE-Food a platform aiming for a food traceability. What is the difference now between those projects and their goals.
So Protocol == Cryptocurrency? If so, do I need to create my own Blockchain to create my protocol, given the information you said, “each protocol has its own Blockchain”?
Protocol layer should be split. Protocol and platform. Unfortunately, there is poor separation between the two leading to “one ring to rule the all”. Ethereum the protocol becomes part of Ethereum the platform which can support multiple coins
Another excellent video explaining Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies in an easy to understand fashion. Still I have some questions on Tokens. Take an ERC20 token defined by a Smart Contract on the Ethereum Blockchain. Does this effectively mean that to monetise that token it must first be converted into Ether ?
Hey Ivan, it would be really helpful if you can explain why we need token. The origin story of token and why token is necessary when we already have coins
tokens are built on top of the existing blockchain , so that you don't need to worry about running your own. this way more people can participate and create different applications. otherwise you will have 1000 of blockchains which would not be as secure as Ethereum or Bitcoin for example.
Hey thanks for this cool video, but two questions reman to me: - is it possible to index a token on exchanges the same way as a coin? - is a token owner taking advantage of the coin mining network, let's say by Ethereum miners and have to pay for the transactions fees and mining to Ethereum or its miners? Thanks in advance :-)
I think something is missing from this explanation. Protocol and coin need to be separated to better understand that the protocol is moving information in the form of a coin (if I am understanding this correctly). Similar to how TCP-IP moves packets of data around.
Hi Thank you for the Video..I have a query..suppose you have Dapp and there is a usage token to take part in the Dapp. Can I change the Dapp after the token is build?
So if some Ethereum token increases its price, it should increase the price of ETH too? because they are using ETH behind? and more important, what happens when some token decides to move from their network, right now we have the case of EOS and TRON moving from Ethereum, and some people says that's why ETH is falling so strong, because they are selling a lot of ETH, I'm a bit confused about this, what is the relation between the tokens and ETH?
I understand that token based on protocols (eth,btc) but then it means tokens will have their own blockchain or how will they store into same eth blockchain ? thank you for the video, very helpful!
Hi Ivan, I have questions regarding how a blockchain can work with real life products (i.e. RFID tags). I am constructing my own application and would love to have a conversation with you to gain further knowledge. Can we open a dialogue? Thanks!
I think the chart is correct, blockchain is an idea and also technology, with this technology, you can build different variants, Ethereum, bitcoin, litecoin, dogecoin etc.
Good day programmer 💻. Here in this video you have mentioned that IOTA planning to built smart contract functionality into their blockchain. I have doubt that IOTA use Blockchain or Tangle? Please advise me
This could have been done in a 1 or 2 page PowerPoint, and explained at a high level in less than 3 minutes. My bitch is all the fluff around the discussion. I like your show none the less.
A crypto company - Cointed - which is also having its ICO currently up and running, prior to publicly stating its partnership with TAS, announced that they are having a crypto-debit card give away!
Good video. However not enough precise regarding token. Indeed why use a token if you run a dapp on a specific blockchain let s say ethereum for instance ?
Ivan, I wish i could say I understand it now but I don't really. I did learn that each protocol builds it's own blockchain and I didn't know that before. I did learn that ETH and BTC are their own blockchain PROTOCOLS and i didn't know that before. I did learn that many different TOKENS can be built on a PROTOCOL or some protocols But everyone is talking about crypto protocols and tokens like it's MONEY and it's not, I think, or is it, what the hell is it... I still don't really get what a token is? What's it for? I know very little and I know lots of people investing that know a lot less than me!
As my modest experience shows, this is one of the best exchanges. The platform in HitBTC is fast, it works very fast, that is especially important for short-term trading. The commission is minimal, and pleases the speed of transactions in the withdrawal.
Wow, I have returned to watch. I left after 2 mins of nothing last time but I think you have information I need, so I am back. I will start at the 5 minute mark and see if you are finally on topic....
Hi, could you help me understand how does token economics work? For example, after ICO, who manages the entire operations and how does operational costs, employee salaries an other costs get paid for? Would like a bit of overview on how cash flows of ICO companies would be managed in general? Anyone kindly help me understand or point me to any useful resource for the same.. Thanks!
each company should have a white paper that breaks down expenses, which I'm sure you've probably already discovered by now since this was 3 months ago....
Thanks for taking the time to educate the new-people, without talking down to them or being condescending.
You have fans.
I commented on an older video about your audio quality. This one is much improved. As always, thank you for your vids. This explanation is so good, my friend.
This really helped me understand things. It's the video I've been looking for ever since I first heard about blockchain. Thanks, Ivan.
You definitely have fans! Another informative video, Thank You.
Bernard Macarius agreed!
Great video Ivan !! The best part is the time-length of the video, great to start the day with your video and a cup of coffee!
Man this video was a eureka moment for me when everything just clicked together in my head! Great vid, Subscribing now!
17 minutes and I went from clueless to a general understanding of cryptocurrency.. got yourself a new subscriber
I had no clue about computers and better yet nothing about blockchain and because of your channel I found out that am very good at understanding your explanations. Now am coding and am a crypto trader. Changed my life and am from the hood 954.. thanks man keep doing ya thing my g

Smashed the like button Ivan, i do like this programer's playlist quite a lot.
Good explanation video with picture and graphic,
but it could be less time under 5 minute
Thank you for your hard work. You are great in your explanations and patience in covering details for those entering the crypto sphere.
Ivan the Best one and you have fans for sure.
Cheers from Brazil!
nice ivan you gave us a extra ordinary info on crypto.
your english word pronunciation is very clear, so we can get it easily.
keep it up..
thank you
Found your channel from Invest Like a Boss, love the channel, thanks Ivan
Good explanation about the difference between them, very clear and easy
This is absolutely the best UA-cam channel about Crypto!
IVAN! This is another GREAT Presentation you have for us to see!
Damm I Admire all of you Young guys and Gals who are aware that
cryptos are serious....and you have so much info and wisdom you share.....
I got my first ones at 50 cents USD someone stole that tote I had my info
in and my computer!
TRUST NO ONE!
Ivan, here in the USA a lot of ignorant people have no idea that at one time
a Bartender in Reno told a Gold Miner from California , who had turned in his
gold for FRN's across the country over in Washington D.C.
that he was "not going to accept some silly piece of PAPER with NUMBERS
on it for Whiskey and a room! "It's Gold or the Road my friend" he said!
WELL SOON it is going to be " It's CRYPTO or No Go!" You will HAVE to because
the government is going to do what ever it can, illegally of course to
TAX us on what IS NOT Theirs to tax us upon! Value for Value is what this CRYPTO
Thing comes down to! SIMPLE< most people have no freaking clue
as to what you are talking about here UNTIL NOW!!! I want to talk with you.
Jeffrey Allen Storrs
Very good explanation 👏🏿 the comparison to torrents was brilliant 💡
All this is totally clear for me after watching this video. Well done, you are the man.
I am a fan of you and the energy you put into teaching, Ivan.
Great video, Ivan! Many thanks - from one of your many fans.
It's the first of your videos I'm watching and I am definitely a fan.. thanks for the info
VERY VALUABLE KNOWLEDGE .. THANKS IVAN

The section on regulatory challenges was eye-opening.

thanks for cool explanations.
As I understand, if 'X' coin is added to etherium protocol than it means ethrium protocol is updated. Is it right?
I had difficulty understanding the structure and you cleared all of that up I thank you. Liked and subscribed!
Hi! Yes, you do have fans! Trust me! ;) You are great! Keep on going!
Thank Sir, God Bless America and Greece-Roman.
Thanks !!! Ur the best 🙂 i havent programmed in a while and want to get back to it. I hope u can provide a high level instruction on how to create smart contracts (high level)
Ivan, fantastic video. I'll check out the podcast. Thank you.
433K subscribers......... i think you did have fans dude !!!!!!!!!!!!! well done to ya..... love your content !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Careful not to say "I know this is confusing to you" too much, people might take offense, or worse, get annoyed, lol. :)
Very clear and precise, many thanks for the tutorial
This is beautifully explained! Thank you, Ivan!!!
Very well explained Ivan. Thanks.....
Just need further differentiation between token and coin.

coin = native currency of the protocol
token = other currency enabled by code running on that protocol
Thanks for explaining the terms. I learned a lot.

Ivan, ty for u videos

Dear Ivan, Kindly make a video on Security tokens.. Polymath/Tzero.
You are an excellent teacher.
I think something is missing from this explanation. Protocol and coin need to be separated to better understand that the protocol is moving information in the form of a coin (if I am understanding this correctly). Similar to how TCP-IP moves packets of data around.

Can you do a video on atomic swaps?
I understand that token based on protocols (eth,btc) but then it means tokens will have their own blockchain or how will they store into same eth blockchain ? thank you for the video, very helpful!
Two questions: 1. Do Bitcoin and Ethereum share the same blockchain? 2. What is Litecoin in that regard?
no.
another separate blockchain
Hi Ivan I am interested in SONM I see their repository has some action in September. Would like to get your take on that. Thank you
thank you.. just one thing.. bitcoin also has smart contracts 😉
Hi Ivan,
I have questions regarding how a blockchain can work with real life products (i.e. RFID tags). I am constructing my own application and would love to have a conversation with you to gain further knowledge. Can we open a dialogue?
Thanks!
can you please sent the link to that PDF file on video....

Hi if i want to build a crypto exchange website do i need to connect to the protocols or connect to third party company like binance.
Is it okay to say that smart contracts use coins (Ether) to perform transactions on the blockchain and dApps clients use tokens?
This is exactly what the browser wars was all about when the internet first came up and people started developing websites.
I think the chart is correct, blockchain is an idea and also technology, with this technology, you can build different variants, Ethereum, bitcoin, litecoin, dogecoin etc.
Good day programmer 💻. Here in this video you have mentioned that IOTA planning to built smart contract functionality into their blockchain. I have doubt that IOTA use Blockchain or Tangle? Please advise me

Small Question how can ethereum & bitcoin become protocol. i think PoW & PoS are the protocols
Bitcoin and Ethereum are protocols, POW and pos are consensus mechanisms within the protocols
Wow, I have returned to watch. I left after 2 mins of nothing last time but I think you have information I need, so I am back. I will start at the 5 minute mark and see if you are finally on topic....
