Marquez\"},\"description\":\"A literature major, Reynaldo M\u00e1rquez has been deeply immersed in the crypto industry since 2017. His journey began with translating articles for various crypto news outlets, a role he took on with zeal. In 2018, amidst a challenging market, he embraced his first writing assignment, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to the nascent industry and the promise of change it bears for many people worldwide. In March 2021, he joined the prestigious crypto news outlet NewsBTC and Bitcoinist, where he not only reported on the latest crypto news but also had the privilege of interviewing some of the industry's most influential figures. A year later, his dedication and hard work were recognized, and he was promoted to Managing Editor, a position he currently holds with pride. He believes in honesty, good communication, hard work, and the power of cryptocurrency and its potential to transform people's lives, especially those alienated by the legacy financial system. Born in 1992 in Venezuela, Reynaldo is familiar with how governments and central banks can negatively affect people, their everyday lives, and their futures by creating inflation and erasing their hopes for a better future. Thus, like many Venezuelans, he embraced this new technology to help him and his family navigate difficult times. In another life, Reynaldo would have pursued a career as an investigator, most likely tracking down the origins of the Cyberpunk movement with the publication of William Gibson\u2019s \u2018Neuromancer.\u2019 The intersection between fiction and reality, with the materialization of Bitcoin in 2009, would have allowed him to dive deep into the crypto sphere as something more than a financial phenomenon but also a cultural shift in society that was brewing since the XX century, and maybe even sooner, in the XIX century with the publication of Henry David Thoreau\u2019s \u2018Civil Disobedience.\u2019 But that\u2019s for another life. In this one, Reynaldo has been trading to improve his trading skills. Since 2023, he has been trying to learn Python to create successful strategies and find ways to execute them. It is a difficult task, which continues to keep him busy today and will most likely continue to keep him busy in the near and long term. In his free time, he enjoys lifting heavy objects, reading, watching movies, and listening to his favorite music. Some of his favorite authors are Walt Whitman, William Faulkner, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Raymond Carver, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Mario Vargas Llosa, Reinaldo Arenas, Rafael Cadenas, and many others. Lately, he has been primarily interested in reading about dystopic societies, a topic that deeply resonates with the crypto industry. Since 2023, he has lived in Spain with his wife. He loves the weather, the food, and the people and their culture. They both expect to travel much more within the country they now call home and beyond its border. He hopes to retire with his wife, maybe in a quiet place near a beach, but most likely in a city close to a library and a university with his kids and, hopefully, grandkids.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/reynaldo-mrquez-2ab111190\/\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/rl_m\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/author\/reynaldomarquez\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design","description":"Ethereum second layer scalability company StarkWare confirmed the rumors about the upcoming launch of the StarkNet token.","robots":{"index":"index","follow":"follow","max-snippet":"max-snippet:-1","max-image-preview":"max-image-preview:large","max-video-preview":"max-video-preview:-1"},"canonical":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/","og_locale":"en_US","og_type":"article","og_title":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design","og_description":"Ethereum second layer scalability company StarkWare confirmed the rumors about the upcoming launch of the StarkNet token.","og_url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/","og_site_name":"NewsBTC","article_publisher":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/newsbtc","article_published_time":"2022-07-14T16:52:15+00:00","og_image":[{"width":1920,"height":1080,"url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"author":"Reynaldo Marquez","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_creator":"@rl_m","twitter_site":"@newsbtc","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Reynaldo Marquez","Est. reading time":"4 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/"},"author":{"name":"Reynaldo Marquez","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/#\/schema\/person\/6b25e0bbb04d6129ebb4d"},"headline":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design","datePublished":"2022-07-14T16:52:15+00:00","dateModified":"2022-07-14T16:52:15+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/"},"wordCount":620,"publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/#organization"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080","keywords":["ETH","ethereum","ethusd","starkware"],"articleSection":["Ethereum"],"inLanguage":"en-US","copyrightYear":"2022","copyrightHolder":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/#organization"}},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/","url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/","name":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080","datePublished":"2022-07-14T16:52:15+00:00","dateModified":"2022-07-14T16:52:15+00:00","description":"Ethereum second layer scalability company StarkWare confirmed the rumors about the upcoming launch of the StarkNet token.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080","contentUrl":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080","width":1920,"height":1080,"caption":"Ethereum StarkWare"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/#website","url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/","name":"NewsBTC","description":"Bitcoin &amp;

His journey began with translating articles for various crypto news outlets, a role he took on with zeal. In 2018, amidst a challenging market, he embraced his first writing assignment, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to the nascent industry and the promise of change it bears for many people worldwide. In March 2021, he joined the prestigious crypto news outlet NewsBTC and Bitcoinist, where he not only reported on the latest crypto news but also had the privilege of interviewing some of the industry's most influential figures. A year later, his dedication and hard work were recognized, and he was promoted to Managing Editor, a position he currently holds with pride. He believes in honesty, good communication, hard work, and the power of cryptocurrency and its potential to transform people's lives, especially those alienated by the legacy financial system. Born in 1992 in Venezuela, Reynaldo is familiar with how governments and central banks can negatively affect people, their everyday lives, and their futures by creating inflation and erasing their hopes for a better future. Thus, like many Venezuelans, he embraced this new technology to help him and his family navigate difficult times. In another life, Reynaldo would have pursued a career as an investigator, most likely tracking down the origins of the Cyberpunk movement with the publication of William Gibson\u2019s \u2018Neuromancer.\u2019 The intersection between fiction and reality, with the materialization of Bitcoin in 2009, would have allowed him to dive deep into the crypto sphere as something more than a financial phenomenon but also a cultural shift in society that was brewing since the XX century, and maybe even sooner, in the XIX century with the publication of Henry David Thoreau\u2019s \u2018Civil Disobedience.\u2019 But that\u2019s for another life. In this one, Reynaldo has been trading to improve his trading skills. Since 2023, he has been trying to learn Python to create successful strategies and find ways to execute them. It is a difficult task, which continues to keep him busy today and will most likely continue to keep him busy in the near and long term. In his free time, he enjoys lifting heavy objects, reading, watching movies, and listening to his favorite music. Some of his favorite authors are Walt Whitman, William Faulkner, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Raymond Carver, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Mario Vargas Llosa, Reinaldo Arenas, Rafael Cadenas, and many others. Lately, he has been primarily interested in reading about dystopic societies, a topic that deeply resonates with the crypto industry. Since 2023, he has lived in Spain with his wife. He loves the weather, the food, and the people and their culture. They both expect to travel much more within the country they now call home and beyond its border. He hopes to retire with his wife, maybe in a quiet place near a beach, but most likely in a city close to a library and a university with his kids and, hopefully, grandkids.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/reynaldo-mrquez-2ab111190\/","https:\/\/x.com\/rl_m"],"url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/author\/reynaldomarquez\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design","url":"http:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/ktsl888.com\/news\/ethereum\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080"},"articleSection":"Ethereum","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Reynaldo Marquez"}],"creator":["Reynaldo Marquez"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["eth","ethereum","ethusd","starkware"],"dateCreated":"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z","datePublished":"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z","dateModified":"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Why StarkWare Faces Backlash Over Token Design\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/ktsl888.com\\\/news\\\/ethereum\\\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/ktsl888.com\\\/news\\\/ethereum\\\/why-starkware-faces-backlash-over-token-design\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ktsl888.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/07\\\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ktsl888.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/07\\\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080\"},\"articleSection\":\"Ethereum\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Reynaldo Marquez\"}],\"creator\":[\"Reynaldo Marquez\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ktsl888.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"eth\",\"ethereum\",\"ethusd\",\"starkware\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-07-14T16:52:15Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/ktsl888.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutter_speed-LLEZ1JCpmJ8-unsplash-1.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495707"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/535"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/495308"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ktsl888.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
