#10KQA — 10 000 Blockchain Question Challenge book, “ ,” refers to the “10,000 hour rule” as a rule that says it takes 10,000 hours of what Gladwell calls “deliberate practice” to become a world-class expert in any field. Satisfaction does indeed come from these long hours of hard work, but when you are at it long enough, practicing every day and getting closer to your 10,000-hour mark, you will see big results. Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers: The Story of Success While some people don’t believe this rule to be true (some interesting details by ), I have through my own experience found that hard work and dedication does in fact pay off, and the payout is far greater thereafter. How many times have you gone to the gym and felt your muscles ache and burn only to realize that after a while, and after several hard runs on the treadmill, you finally got the figure you wanted? How many hours have you spent coding on Assembler before you finally started getting into the flow of things, realizing that you’ve created something special? here Nick Skillicorn It takes hard work and deliberate practice to get into the flow and become a master. And that was how the idea to start the 10,000 Question Challenge was born. The main goal of this challenge is to derive a better understanding of the blockchain by studying it and interacting with other experts. I am sure that a huge quantity of new ideas will rise to the surface during the process, and it will be interesting to chat with experts in the field as well. What is the 10,000 Question Challenge? For 2018, I would like to receive answers to 10,000 questions about the blockchain from the best experts in their respective fields. Why 10,000 questions? Why not… This number is not so large. There are, after all, more than 19,000 questions posted onto both of the Bitcoin and Ethereum forums. source: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions So, my purpose is to create a gateway for beginners who want to take the plunge into the blockchain. I have formulated the following categories myself, and I will organize the questions into four categories: • : This will cover everything from core blockchain technologies, to its development, to the methods of resolving the scaling problem, and cryptography in general (including understanding what will happen when quantum computers enslave the world). Core Blockchain Development • : These will all be questions related to earning money and understanding how long the cryptocurrency hype will go on. It will be questions regarding the mechanisms of trading and the nuances that distinguish crypto trading from usual trading. There will be questions about investing into ICOs and the real profitability behind the new technologies that are being developed in this field.. Profits (trading, ICO, mining) • : There is the feeling that, in most cases, blockchain technology is farfetched, and there is no way to actually profit from implementing it into other markets ( , the airline industry, the music industry, etc.). I would like to dive deep into these questions about how the blockchain can disrupt multiple industries, and to receive answers from the real practitioners and experts who have already implemented the blockchain in their fields with great success (by the way, there is a good article on this by ). Real Disruptive models freelance services subject here Haseeb Qureshi • : Any questions regarding regulations, applicable legal practices, the legality of Bitcoin, and so much more will fall into this category. Will ICOs soon be regulated? Is it legal to pay a salary in crypto? Laws and regulations The discussion and selection of questions will happen on Slack or they will be gathered from social networks via the hashtag. It is my hope that a large number of people are involved with this event. #10KQA Later on, a mailing with the chosen questions will be distributed every day. My team and I will moderate all of the messages and leave only the truly interesting ones. In addition to that, I will ask a question to people whom I consider to be experts in the field (there are plenty of them in our community). Also, feel free to recommend your own experts.
