2) Summary: Is Dash more secure than Bitcoin

Name: Julia Magas Cointelegraph

Category: High Tech

Email: query-b2g2@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Cointelegraph

Deadline: 5:00 PM GMT - 27 July

Query:

I'm seeking security experts who can comment on the topic of a
51% attack and the Dash's ChainLocks technology.

Dash claims it has been the world's safest cryptocurrency for a
year now thanks to its brand-new technology called ChainLocks
that makes a 51% attack impossible.

https://twitter.com/StayDashy/status/1278683418738544641

Andreas Antonopoulos previously told that an attacker needs to
do a 60% attack if they want to hack Dash. I would like to know
if this is the case and figure out if anything changed over the
past year.

How important this technology is, given that today's cost of a
51% attack on Bitcoin is over $20 million that makes it
cost-ineffective and hence almost impossible?

Requirements:

The comments should come from security experts with a broad
understanding of blockchain security.

3) Summary: Crypto Custody Announcement

Name: Anirudh Tiwari Cointelegraph

Category: High Tech

Email: query-b2jt@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Cointelegraph

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 27 July

Query:

We're currently working on a piece regarding the US Banking
Regulator (OCC) greenlighting the custody of crypto assets by
federally chartered banks, what this change means for crypto
exchanges, crypto firms and investors in general.. Even the
impact of BTC price hitting 10k based on this news and the $2
Trillion Fed stimulus expected. We're looking to get insights on
the following subjects:

Will banks actually take up this opportunity? Or will the
industry show the same reluctance it has in the past?

What does this change for the crypto exchanges?

How does this impact crypto custody firms? Likes Coinsbase,
Satoshi Labs etc.

Considering that change happened in Germany a few months ago,
how is this similar or different to the implications of that
change?

What does this change for investors? Are there any disadvantages
of this move?

This news along with expected $2 Trillion Fed stimuli, has sent
the price of BTC and even Ether to soaring highs and growing.
Will this price rally continue? Are any more factors causing
this?

Please feel free to add any additional details that you feel I
might have failed to consider in relation to this subject.

For your time, we will be more than happy to add your/company
name, company/profile details in the article. However, we do not
link Twitter, LinkedIn, biz websites since we are an independent
publishing house.

Looking forward to your responses.

Requirements:

7) Summary: Looking for crypto mining experts to answer a few questions

Name: Shiraz jagati Cointelegraph

Category: High Tech

Email: query-b2lk@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Cointelegraph

Deadline: 10:00 AM EST - 28 July

Query:

Hey HARO family,

Currently working on a new piece for Cointelegraph regarding the
Chinese as well as the global crypto mining sector. Was looking
for experts to provide their insights in regard to a few
questions:

(i) China-based mining pool Btc.top is looking to redefine the
concept of cloud mining, which will allow users to mine crypto
remotely by buying a certain amount of hash power from a
third-party, with what it calls "joint mining." While on paper
this concept sounds quite appealing, how feasible and
financially viable is BTC.top's vision in reality? For example,
as per reports, operational/usage rates are subject change once
the rainy season in Sichuan is over since at least some of its
mining farms are located there.

(ii) If BTC.top's business model does succeed, do you think more
and more companies will follow suit and start to employ this
strategy? Are their other companies that are exploring novel
mining setups? If so, would you be kind enough to point out some
examples of the same?

(iii) With PoS-based networks fast gaining traction in recent
times, how competitive is the mining scene at the moment in your
opinion? What does the future look like for this niche market
sector?

(iv) Do you foresee China's dominance within the crypto mining
market shifting in the foreseeable future, especially after a
few more countries recently put a ban on all crypto-mining
related activities (such as Venezuela)?

(v) Please feel free to add any more details that you may see
fit in relation to this subject.

For your time, we will be more than happy to add your name,
company details in the piece. However, please note that my
editors don't allow me to include any backlinks int he piece.

Looking forward to hearing from y'all

Regards

Requirements:

Comments should only come from Crypto mining experts (preferably
from ones operating in China).
