JSON-RPC

By PABATAI 時間 Tony Searl
JSON-RPC, the native communication protocol designed for EVM-supported blockchains, is now openly accessible and ready for in-production application use on the Hedera network, the open source, leaderless proof-of-stake public network. By incorporating JSON-RPC support, Hedera fosters increased interoperability and greater EVM equivalence, streamlining the Web3 development experience for developers and infrastructure providers. As an open-source solution, JSON-RPC encourages innovation and collaboration across the EVM ecosystem, while promoting the growth and advancement of the Hedera network. 
 
Saiprasad Raut, Co-Chair Technical Steering & Product Committee at the Hedera Governing Council, commented on the announcement, 
 
"JSON-RPC marks a significant achievement on the Hedera network's journey towards EVM equivalence. We foresee this advancement propelling rapid adoption by both new and migrating developers in the Web3 space. As the Hedera mainnet recently crossed the 17 billion transaction milestone, our aim is to amplify the network effects already evident in the Hedera network today by ensuring the best developer experience. To accomplish this, the Hedera Governing Council continues to prioritize streamlining the adoption process. We see JSON-RPC as one tool of many in our toolkit. We've found that once developers and retail users experience the Hedera network's distinct advantages, they remain actively engaged within its thriving ecosystem."

In this week’s news, Hedera continues its commitment to innovation and EVM equivalence with the integration of JSON-RPC onto the network. Duncan Moir, from Hedera Governing Council member abrdn, penned a piece highlighting how blockchains are set to transform the way organisations across industries operate. The United States Federal Reserve's instant payment system, FedNow, showcased Dropp, a Hedera-based micropayments platform that revolutionizes retail transactions with reduced costs, in its Service Provider Showcase. Bharat Blockchain Yatra, India's Web3-focused tech tour, launched with a curtain raiser event, highlighting blockchain innovation and entrepreneurship, along with the unveiling of the Hedera India Hackathon 2023. Meanwhile, Doerksen and Davenport debuted a multi-file music NFT, "Hello Future," on Hedera, enabling creators to tokenize diverse artwork into a single NFT at low and fixed fees. Enjoy these stories below.


Hedera continues to signal its commitment to service innovation and improvement with the news that JSON-RPC, a native communication protocol designed for EVM-supported blockchains, is now openly accessible on Hedera. By incorporating JSON-RPC onto the network, Hedera streamlines the Web3 development experience for developers and infrastructure providers, enabling increased interoperability and greater Ethereum Virtual Machine equivalence. Through this integration, Web3 developers can easily tap into Hedera’s robust infrastructure and operate public or private JSON-RPC relays (e.g. Hashio). Further to this, Web3 developers can take advantage of a vast array of familiar EVM libraries, tools, and environments, to expedite the design, testing, and deployment of their Web3 applications. Following on from this successful integration, JSON-RPC will soon be set to enable broader individual user adoption by offering support for MetaMask and other JSON-RPC comparative EVM wallets. 

Duncan Moir, from Hedera Governing Council member abrdn, penned a piece highlighting how blockchains and other forms of distributed ledger technology (DLT) are set to transform the way organisations across industries operate and, ultimately, the way individuals live their lives. In it, he highlights how some proof-of-stake networks, especially Hedera, are particularly environmentally friendly.

FedNow, the United States Federal Reserve’s instant payment system, has added Dropp, a micropayments platform built on Hedera, to its Service Provider Showcase. The Service Provider Showcase aims to connect financial institutions and businesses with service providers that can ‘help them innovate and implement instant payment products using the FedNow service’. Leveraging regulated banking technology and Hedera’s distributed ledger technology (DLT), Dropp offers a digital solution designed to enable merchants to accept payments at significantly reduced costs. As the financial industry continues to evolve, the Federal Reserve’s dedication to exploring new technologies is indicative of the strong potential of fintech solutions. This move also underscores the capacity of DLT to revolutionize current payment systems and transaction processes. 

Services and products to support the FedNow® Service 

"Dropp offers a digital technology solution designed for merchants to accept payments at a very low cost. Dropp has leveraged distributed ledger technology and regulated banking technology to build an extremely secure and cost-effective solution where merchants can accept payments as low as a cent. Dropp is a Pay-By-Bank alternative to credit card payments, allowing merchants to accept small-value purchases digitally without paying large transaction fees. Dropp also offers a digital alternative to cash payments for small value purchases. Dropp makes it possible for digital merchants to offer goods and services at a granular level that has not possible affordably because of the cost of credit card transaction fees. Dropp opens up a digital economy of micro-purchases.

Dropp gives consumers complete control over payments with authorized credit push. None of the consumer’s credentials are shared with the merchants. Consumers get the convenience of making purchases with a single click or a QR scan using Dropp’s digital wallet, available for mobile devices and most popular web browsers. The Dropp platform is offered to financial institutions as an embedded payment solution. Dropp as a ”payment service“ allows banks to provide customers and merchants with a bank-branded digital pay-by-bank solution for shopping.

Dropp’s payment platform is built on a high throughput, low latency distributed ledger technology for instant payment execution. Dropp currently utilizes ACH to fund the consumer wallet and make end-of-day payments to merchants. Dropp plans to partner with banks using the FedNow Service to provide merchants an innovative option for year-round, end of day real-time settlement and instant payment services, providing access to funds directly from customers for large value transactions. Dropp will also enable instant payments at the retail level for regular daily purchasing through participation in FedNow." https://dropp.cc/

This piece further highlights the news that FedNow has added Dropp to its Service Provider Showcase. By leveraging Hedera’s fast settlement times, and low, predictable fees, “Dropp makes it possible for digital merchants to offer goods and services at a granular level that has not been possible affordably because of the cost of credit card transaction fees — opening up a digital economy for micro-purchases.” Leveraging Dropp, merchants can move away from the traditional content subscription model,  packaging and pricing their services in various new ways, including as pay-per-use products. As such, consumers can choose to only pay for what they consume. 

Last week, Bharat Blockchain Yatra (BBY), India’s first tech tour focused on Web3 and supported by the Hashgraph Association, kickstarted its tour with a curtain raiser event at T-Hub, Hyderabad. The event commenced with an inauguration ceremony, led by Sudharshan Reddy Minumula, CEO of Information Data Systems (IDS), and Voruganti Aravind, Convenor of BBY. The event consisted of multiple expert speaker sessions, panel discussions, product showcases, and demonstrations from industry leaders in the Web3 space. Voruganti stated that, “Bharat Blockchain Yatra is a testament to our commitment to fostering blockchain innovation and entrepreneurship in India. Our goal is to not only raise awareness about value-driven blockchain use cases but also provide a platform for companies and startups that have not received the limelight they deserve.” During the event, Stefan Deiss, Co-founder and Board Director of The Hashgraph Association also unveiled the ‘Hedera India Hackathon 2023’. As part of this initiative, the top three selected startups will each receive up to $250,000 USD in grant funding to develop scalable and utility-driven applications on Hedera. 

Doerksen and Davenport, a creative agency working with Hedera startups, projects, and artists, has announced the launch of a multi-file music NFT “Hello Future”, built on Hedera’s network. The new multi-file NFT will allow creators to tokenize their artwork (3D objects, audio files, videos, etc) into one single NFT. Additionally, in line with Hedera’s mission to maintain low and fixed fees across its product portfolio, it will only cost $1 to create a collection and just 2 cents to mint each NFT. To amplify the news, Doerksen and Davenport have created a rock and roll song “Hello Future” to show what is possible with multi-file NFTs.

I Know No Thing...

By PABATAI 時間 Tony Searl

What opens inside you when you're willing to entertain the possibility that things maybe different than you thought they were is what I call the great internal space; a place where you come to know that you don't know. This is really the entry point into the end of suffering: when you become conscious of the fact that you really don't know. I mean that you don't really know anything - that you really don't understand the world, you don't really understand each other, and you ... really don't understand yourself. This is such an obvious thing when we really take a moment and look around. When you look at the world that human beings have created and how we relate to each other, it's so obvious that we don't know anything at all. . Everybody's going around pretending like they really know things, pretending like they know what's real and what's not, pretending they know what's right, pretending they know who's wrong, ...

HEART CONNECTED NOT MIND ATTACHED

Mmmm GEE!  SPOT ON🤣 Sex doesn't mean much to her, emotional connection does. She can go forever without physical intimacy . Physical desire isn't her primary need. Her body responds to her heart, not the other way around. When her mind isn't safe, her body won't be available. When her emotions aren't nurtured, her passion disappears. What she craves is mental and emotional safety . She needs to feel understood before she feels desired. She needs to feel heard before she feels wanted. She needs to feel valued before she feels attractive. She needs emotional intimacy before physical intimacy. She doesn't need you to tell her she's sexy. She needs you to tell her what you admire about her mind . She doesn't need you to desire her body. She needs you to appreciate her heart . HEART 💕 HEART I FELT ONE TRUE COMMUNION IN SHARED STILLNESS  IN SHARED SILENCE  WE CREATED IT  PHYSICALLY TOGETHER Mmmm… GEE THAT MEDITATION DO YOU REMEMBER?  IN YOUR NEW LOUNGE R...

IT ALL BEGINS IN THE…

By PABATAI 時間 Tony Searl

Beyond Attraction:  The Sacred Blueprint of Divine Love Within every soul , there are four energetic bodies : the physical, the emotional, the mental, and the spiritual. True fulfillment comes only when all four are brought into alignment . And so it is with love. And so it is with union. In karmic relationships , the pattern begins from the ground up— from the lower centres . A spark of physical attraction lights the fire. That fire stirs the emotions. The emotions seek meaning, leading to an intellectual connection. But if the spirit is not aligned, the bond will eventually unravel. Without spiritual harmony , the relationship becomes a house built on shifting sands— beautiful for a season, but doomed to collapse under the weight of its own imbalance. Divine union follows a different path. It begins not in the body, but in the spirit. It is the recognition of the soul — the ancient memory of two beings who were always meant to meet. A vibration before a thought. A knowing befor...
