Einsteinium Fellowships

In 2018, the Einsteinium Foundation, a non-profit organization (NPO) and the world's first NPO to be backed by cryptocurrency, established our annual award program. We did this in order to offer grant money to directly support scientific research. We continue to balance our operations as a cryptocurrency and philanthropic organization. Therefore, on the anniversary of Einstein’s birthday, we announced that the Einsteinium Foundation will support the Einsteinium Fellowships, with details of this initiative described in our recent blog post. This marks a very special occasion for the Einsteinium Foundation as our organization's founding was inspired by Albert Einstein. For this program, there are no restrictions on the type of projects that are eligible but they must be scientific in nature and well-thought out. Additionally, eligible projects must follow a general ethos to push human knowledge forward, and strive to build us a better, safer and more stable future. In this regard, the fellowships support researchers across career stages including graduate, postgraduate, or professorships by offering funds to be utilized for the advancement of a scientific project. This year, we will be offering the Einsteinium Fellowships in the form of 10 fellowships to be awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year. Each fellow will be awarded 10,000 EMC2 in unrestricted funds. We encourage you to spread awareness of this initiative and if interested, to direct your application here.

ANNOUNCING OUR SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION OF KOMODO dPoW INTO MIL

To the Einsteinium community, 

We have achieved a major step in the release of MIL. Our recent blog post highlights this key innovative feature and shows where we are in our roadmap for release, and our next action items.

More details about the EMC2/MIL roadmap can be found here.

Security on the blockchain is of fundamental importance. It allows us to release a safe and effective product, currently EMC2, and in the near future MIL.

The actions taken by the Einsteinium and Komodo teams, to implement Komodo’s delayed Proof of Work (dPoW), solidifies the strength of the MIL network and directly drives our ability to promote widespread adoption and usage. The Einsteinium Foundation has been working with the Komodo team for years as a core technology and we want to continue our strong relationship. Komodo’s technology is anchored to the 4 Pillars of Blockchain Technology: security, scalability, interoperability, and adaptability:

  • Komodo's dPoW mechanism recycles the hashrate of the network to protect all integrated blockchains an equal level of security. This is made possible by storing backups of individual blocks onto the decentralized ledgers of other blockchains.

  • The process of storing backups of individual blocks onto another blockchain's ledger is called notarization. Komodo's decentralized network of 64 Notary Nodes carries out the technical work required to successfully complete notarizations.

Additional details regarding this unique method of blockchain protection can be found here: https://komodoplatform.com/en/blog/delayed-proof-of-work/

Our team is focused on the growth of Einsteinium and a strong future with MIL. We are proud of our progress, the contributions made by our team and the commitment of our community.

Sincerely,
Leadership of the Einsteinium Foundation.

EINSTEINIUM FOUNDATION 2021 ANNUAL LETTER

To the Einsteinium (EMC2) Community,

We write this letter to you in another generation defining year.

Eight years ago, the Einsteinium Foundation was created to focus on championing cryptocurrency at the intersection of global health and scientific philanthropy. Science has always been the main driver of human achievement and a hallmark of a thriving civilization.  With its far-reaching consequences for health, food, transportation, and touching every facet of our life. Our focus is to use a community-driven approach to benefit society through scientific advancement. Our vision is that fully decentralized systems will usher in a new age of human equality and cooperation. One where staying alive and chasing health does not become your only priority, to the detriment of your quality of life.
Viruses like SARS-CoV-2 remind us that, for all our differences, everyone in this world is connected biologically by a microscopic network of germs and particles. We hope the experience we’ve all lived through over the last year will lead to a long-term change in the way people think about global health—and help people in rich countries see that investments in global health benefit not only low-income countries but everyone.  The Einsteinium Foundation will play a role as part of a long term solution. The way we see it, you need a lot of different people and interests coming together in goodwill to benefit all of humanity. A new generation of scientific philanthropy can help facilitate that cooperation and progress. Just as the HIV pandemic was a generation defining viral pandemic, the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic reminds us that we are living through history.  

When we wrote our last Annual letter

We were just beginning to understand the global pandemic which has resulted in an immeasurable amount of human death and suffering, and unfortunately continues to present in everyday life. At the time, hope was on the horizon with advanced research and development of several vaccines targeting key structural areas of the SARS-CoV-2 genome. These vaccines have proven their fundamental usefulness in combating the severity of this disease. However, the unequal and inequitable distribution of these resources is something we should examine and take actionable steps to address. Humanity is served by the unrepentant energy and activity of scientific research and those that endeavor to overcome these maladies. In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic The Einsteinium Foundation, owing to our own values and mission statement, led direct contributions towards the COVID-19 medical response.  Within only a few weeks of COVID-19’s designation as a global pandemic The Einsteinium Foundation took decisive action to help with resources and our volunteer efforts wherever we could. Members of the Einsteinium community and leadership of the foundation should be proud of their fast acting resolve and dedication. However, the critical steps we took are a small step compared to the impact of the pandemic and the enormous sacrifices made by front line workers. In 2022 we will continue to look for opportunities to contribute to science which benefits humanity and helps to alleviate pain and suffering. 

Our year in review

As we review our activity over the past year, we accomplished a major software development milestone after a long development cycle where we ran into a number of detailed and technical issues which needed to be resolved. We launched our MIL Mainnet. Which itself encountered, as can often be expected, a new error. We operated to quickly resolve and implement a strategy to move forward. Here, we rely on our deep development experience in the blockchain space.  We also took steps to strengthen and secure our blockchain using Komodo. In September 2018, the Einsteinium Foundation recognized Komodo dPoW as one of the best existing network security solutions. Komodo has an excellent core team, as well as a great and dedicated community of developers who are building incredible tools for the entire crypto community. Since its implementation, EMC2 has undergone serious blockchain attacks, which were successfully rejected due to the integration of dPoW. As a result, dPoW will be a significant security feature of MIL coin. We released an updated brand identity for the Milevium (MIL) project. This includes a new logo and font in the classic Einsteinium blue. You’ll see the new look anywhere we are out in public, like our website and all of our social channels dedicated to MIL. Very soon you’ll see it in all of our products supporting the MIL ecosystem including our official wallet. We believe that this new look better matches what we want the MIL project to be: an evolved chain, forked from EMC2. While EMC2 will continue to support promising scientific projects. We will discuss further actions regarding the release of MIL later in this letter.

Einsteinium Awards

The Einsteinium Foundation continues to support scientific research through the use of our annual award program. Scientific research is a long-term investment in our future, and the future of our planet.

Additionally, in specific, we are currently looking for a Blockchain Developer to work on our new cryptocurrency core that utilizes the Ethash mining algorithm (MIL). The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on development experience with Bitcoin or any other Bitcoin-like cryptocurrency core project.

A vision for Einsteiniums future

In the rest of this letter, we write about two areas we see as essential to building a better future: prioritizing equity and getting ready for the release of MIL. 

Prioritizing Equity

It is still early days and as blockchain technology reaches beyond the financial sector, we expect new applications and methods to be developed for the consumer and for the scientific community. We continue to see innovation at the intersection of scientific research and blockchain, and the development of widely adopted standardization and functional frameworks Additionally, we strongly believe in a necessary advantage for the utility of blockchain solutions surrounding the reproducibility crisis in the scientific community. As work in this arena moves from emerging literature to canon, we see a future where the digital ledger will be used to secure scientific data and hopefully can play a central role in dismantling the reproducibility crisis in scientific literature.

Scientific and medical advances and their resulting healthcare improvements should be available to everyone. However, systemic inequities in scientific and medical research, clinical care, and access to healthcare have contributed to an unequal healthcare system. The present moment underscores the need to address disparities in healthcare, beginning with the funders of scientific and medical research. Here, we see a fundamental role for cryptocurrency to address these problems in a global (borderless) way.

How can institutions ensure that their research study leaders and their ideas are diverse? How can foundations ensure that they are helping underserved and underrepresented communities? Ensuring equitable access to diverse backgrounds and ideas, which challenge strong held beliefs in the scientific community and thus are able push the boundaries of human knowledge further. How can scientists ensure that their studies represent diverse human populations? We often see results in particular human populations that do not generalize to all human populations. This is a major problem in understanding how different backgrounds contribute to health and disease. Public and private funders and industry experts need to change their strategic donations for scientific and medical research as this can help build a more equitable global health system.

We see a fundamental role here for Einsteinium. We believe that the following areas can be addressed:

  • Access to funding for countries with limited science programs.

  • Access to sustainable funding for early career researchers.

  • Sustainable funding, enabled through community-driven approaches.

  • High-risk high-reward grants to tackle paradigm changing ideas in a diverse array of fields.

  • Genius grants, where we provide multi-year sustainable funding for promising researchers and research areas.

  • Addressing the inequitable distribution of scientific funding. Where large academic institutions get the lionshares of available funding at the detriment of smaller institutions.

  • Corruption and “boys-club” mentality of late career researchers who have benefitted from inequitable situations and fail to take action to correct the circumstances for others.

  • Incremental science as a proxy for progress. Here, we hope to fund projects with exponential growth potential which can advance humanity to tackle our imminent problems.

Getting ready for the release of MIL

As we look towards 2022, we anticipate an exciting time where blockchain and cryptocurrency continue to mature. Through the work of our team members, we are well positioned for the release of MIL. We are excited at the opportunities this provides to continue to support a number of different avenues which contribute to fundamental scientific progress and the overarching mission of The Einsteinium Foundation. The Einsteinium Foundation is proud to be in the final stages of releasing MIL. A detailed description of MIL can be found in our Blue Paper. MIL represents a long-term and forward-looking project for the Foundation, and a defining project which solidifies the future of this organization. MIL represents an evolved blockchain, forked from EMC2, and our software development has focused on increasing technological improvements and functionality. Please, review our recent post describing our MIL roadmap for more details.

Here, we briefly describe our vision and roadmap for the delivery of MIL

  • The release of MIL will be a gamechanger for us.

  • We anticipate momentum and adoption to move from those classified as first movers in the cryptocurrency sphere to the psyche and utility of the mainstream.

  • MIL will position Einsteinium and the Einsteinium Foundation in a strong financial position and will be a technological leap forward. Einsteinium is an old coin in the cryptocurrency space with our genesis block being mined on March 1st 2014.

  • Over our history, the foundation has managed to overcome a variety of logistical, technical, micro- and macroeconomic challenges, continuing to learn how to efficiently operate in the blockchain space and grow our community all along the way. 

  • By using both coins (EMC2 and MIL) as a tool to search, recognize, reward and even fund the best scientific research, our ability to expand our reach and the probability of accomplishing our fundamental mission will be significantly stronger.

The Einsteinium Foundation is embarking on a truly ambitious path likely to change how cryptocurrency is viewed and used in the real world through the ongoing philanthropic support and dedication to scientific research. By allowing funds to circumvent political roadblocks, we can accelerate our ability to create rapid and necessary change. Such a mission requires a complex system of apps, platforms, services and coins, but all in a simple to use software hub. 

Einsteinium owes a debt of gratitude to the ongoing support and loyalty of our global community. We are very proud of the active and vocal global community Einsteinium has. Our hope is that our community keeps up the great work it has done to support our mission statement and core values for the foreseeable future. We are all in this together and want to do everything we can to help get all of us through these challenging times. It is only through the continued energy and efforts to drive change that we can accomplish our long term mission of being a cryptocurrency that supports scientific research in innovative ways. Our community has been a significant part of our team and we couldn't imagine a situation without you. Thank you for staying with us over the years and for the bright days to come. Throughout these unparalleled and difficult times, it is important that we support and reach out to one another. In this regard, the Einsteinium Foundation maintains a number of modern digital communication channels which I encourage anyone to reach out to us with. 

As we near the end of yet another unprecedented year, I extend my deepest gratitude to our community, especially those on the front lines of the COVID-19 crisis.

EINSTEINIUM FOUNDATION — MONTHLY UPDATE FOR NOVEMBER 2021

To the Einsteinium community, 

Below is a brief overview of our actions over the past month of November 2021.  Our focus remains on the delivery of MIL, an evolved blockchain forked from EMC2. In addition, we continue to balance our operations as both a cryptocurrency and a scientific philanthropic organization. This month provided an opportunity to focus on the functional security around our technology. We have been heads-down focused on the software development aspect of MIL to ensure the delivery of our secure blockchain. Our open source disclosure also allows for any member of the community to build and interact with our active ecosystem of software. Additionally, as we move forward, we also encourage all members of the community to follow our new social media page for MIL  @mileviumcoin.

Expanding our listings on exchanges

We continue to look for new ways to increase the awareness for The Einsteinium Foundation and the inherent functionality of Einsteinium, our current product. Einsteinium, the coin, is available to trade on several top exchanges such as Bittrex and includes our recent EMC2/ETH pair. We are excited by and fully support the recent community-driven activity to reach out to exchanges on our behalf. As a strong driving signal on the Foundation side and in order to reach a wider audience in the cryptocurrency community we are planning for additional exchange listings this year.

We are looking to add to the team

Einsteinium Foundation is looking to add to our team. In specific, we are currently looking for a Blockchain Developer to work on our new cryptocurrency core that utilizes the Ethash mining algorithm. The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on development experience with Bitcoin or any other Bitcoin-like cryptocurrency core project. This current position is not recruiting for smart contracts developers. Additional details regarding the position are available here.

EMC2 Fellowships

      In 2018, the Einsteinium Foundation, a non-profit organization (NPO) and the world's first NPO to be backed by cryptocurrency, established our annual award program. We did this in order to offer grant money to directly support scientific research. 

      We continue to balance our operations as a cryptocurrency and philanthropic organization. Therefore, on the anniversary of Einstein’s birthday, we announced that the Einsteinium Foundation will support the Einsteinium Fellowships, with details of this initiative described in our recent blog post. This marks a very special occasion for the Einsteinium Foundation as our organization's founding was inspired by Albert Einstein. For this program, there are no restrictions on the type of projects that are eligible but they must be scientific in nature and well-thought out. Additionally, eligible projects must follow a general ethos to push human knowledge forward, and strive to build us a better, safer and more stable future. In this regard, the fellowships support researchers across career stages including graduate, postgraduate, or professorships by offering funds to be utilized for the advancement of a scientific project. This year, we will be offering the Einsteinium Fellowships in the form of 10 fellowships to be awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year. Each fellow will be awarded 10,000 EMC2 in unrestricted funds. We encourage you to spread awareness of this initiative and if interested, to direct your application here.

Signed,

EINSTEINIUM FOUNDATION — MONTHLY UPDATE FOR OCTOBER 2021

To the Einsteinium community, 

Below is an overview of our actions over the past month of October 2021. Our focus remains on the delivery of MIL, an evolved blockchain forked from EMC2. In addition, we balance our operations as both a cryptocurrency and a scientific philanthropic organization. This month provided an opportunity to focus on the roadmap to the fulfillment of MIL and our continued delivery of results to the Einsteinium community. Our public disclosure allows for any member of the community to build and interact with our active ecosystem of software. As we move forward, we also encourage all members of the community to follow our new social media page for MIL  @mileviumcoin.

Milevium (MIL) Development

The Einsteinium Foundation is proud to announce that we are in the final stages of releasing MIL.  A detailed description of MIL can be found in our Blue Paper. MIL represents a long-term and forward-looking project for the Foundation, and a defining project which solidifies the future of this organization.

This month provided an opportunity to describe our vision and roadmap for the delivery of MIL.

This public disclosure allows for any member of the community to know where we stand, and the ability to build and interact with our active ecosystem of software. It is our expectation that we can scale our network and continue to build the ecosystem of software to support the delivery of this innovative project. This includes easy ways to interact and transact with MIL. And includes integration for our philanthropic donations towards scientific research. Our reason for this is to keep with the ethos of cryptocurrency and build an open-source future.

In addition, we will be releasing monthly updates and periodic developer notes as we progress. Finally, we will release an updated roadmap on our website describing our plans and next steps. Stayed tuned for an announcement about the roadmap. We are thankful for our community and all it offers. This remains a very exciting time for Einsteinium!
