🗿 Un abbraccio a Satoshi Nakamoto
📍 A Lugano (Svizzera), è stata realizzata di recente un'opera d'arte che celebra il fondatore di Bitcoin.
🔍 La caratteristica unica di questa statua è che si vede solo da una prospettiva, attraverso il codice. Questo simboleggia l'anonimato di Satoshi Nakamoto, permettendo di vedere la sua "anima" attraverso il suo operato.
👤 Satoshi Nakamoto è infatti il fondatore di Bitcoin. Dal 31 ottobre 2008, nessuno sa ancora chi sia realmente, eppure tutti possono vedere che non ha mai mosso i suoi Bitcoin dopo la prima e ultima transazione prima della sua scomparsa.

🔈Most Common Smart Speaker Usage
People are doing plenty of things with voice commands on their #SmartSpeakers, but shopping isn’t really one of them. Only about a quarter to a third of U.S. smart speaker owners have ever purchased something using voice. Very few do so on a regular basis. An Information article this summer said just 2 percent of #Alexa owners had made a purchase via Alexa in 2018.

🗣The State of Chinese Voice Assistants
China is the second-largest consumer market in the world, hitting $4.3T in consumer expenditure in 2016 alone (for reference, the US ranked first with $12.5T, and Japan third with $2.7T).
The Chinese smart home market will reach nearly $23B in 2018, according to Juniper Research. #SmartSpeakers and #AI voice assistants are becoming an integral part of that.
Now that smart speakers are becoming commonplace, the early entrant, #Amazon, is losing its market share — and not just to its rival #Google, but to newer players emerging in China.
