Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: dothebeats on November 17, 2014, 01:05:44 AM What exactly is a proof of upload? Sending bits of data? How would that work? I‘m sorry but my senses couldn‘t make up anything about this proof of upload thing.

Or are you talking about something like decentral cloud, where people are "mining" with their hdd's. People can then store files in the blockchain, which is a great concept.

Ahh so you mean "seeding" or uploading bits of data for others to use? Like a node or something? I thought the nodes of the bitcoin network has some kind of incentive? Or was I wrong all the time? :3 Let me ask Google. Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: shanem on November 17, 2014, 02:20:55 PM Do you mean uploading information on the a system to get the altcoin?
How do you keep track of the information which is uploaded is useful? Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: very rare fruit on November 17, 2014, 02:54:03 PM Proof-of-upload or proof-of-seeding. A combination of bittorrent client and alt-coin. You seed something and you get coins.

Post by: Simon8x on November 18, 2014, 10:29:52 AM So you want to create a new BT client and create an incentive (by offering seeders some coins) for people to use it, am I getting it right?
Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: medUSA on November 18, 2014, 10:37:06 AM I see what OP wants. He wants to be rewarded for seeding a BT file :D
So who is going to mine the blockchain? seeders or leechers? Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system?

Yes. Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: Undefeatable on November 18, 2014, 03:10:46 PM What do you think? Does that mean that the faster the connection, the higher the coin you get? Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system?

The more bytes you seed, the more coins you "mining". Title: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system? Post by: very rare fruit on November 18, 2014, 05:57:23 PM I see what OP wants.

It would seem so, but I think that that would be quite nice for the torrenting community as a wholeTitle: Re: Is it possible to create a “proof-of-upload” system?
