141  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / How do miner's spend their fees (not the block reward)? on: September 16, 2016, 11:42:20 AM
What do the transactions on the blockchain look like where a miner spends their fees - not the block reward of 50/25/12.5 BTC they have earned per block but the fees users have paid for each transaction to be mined to a block? How are these referenced by the next transaction because fees are not specified in a transaction output?

I understand that a miner states the amount of bitcoin they wish to receive as a reward in the coinbase transaction for a block (they are even able to specify a lower reward than the maximum permitted by the network). They can then spend the outputs from the coinbase by referencing it in the next transaction. But how are the fees the miner received for all the transactions in that block spent?

Bump - prices are current.

Please ask if you are after anything unusual as I may have it!

I've not been able to find answers to these questions so apologies if they have been asked before.

1. If all the outputs of a transaction are zero knowledge how does the network or miner know what the fees will be?

2. Is there any way a shadowcash user can provide the ability for a third party to see their anonymous account activity, e.g. like a Monero "view key", without exposing their private key?

3. Is there any way to enforce instant transactions on the network like Dash? Or does shadow cash rely on the normal method of confirmations until statistical certainty on non-reversibility (due to chain reorganisation) reaches a certain threshold.

4. Why did the blockchain switch from PoW to PoS? Was this to seed an initial distribution of coins?

5. Where can I read up on the specific type of PoW used?

6. Where can I read up on the decentralised market protocol?

Thanks for this. Their demonstration site seems to be down (http://bitcoin-abe.info/). Do you know if there are any running versions of it?

So far I have found the following 3 open source block explorere websites:

145  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Open Source Blockchain Explorer on: August 12, 2016, 02:43:17 PM
It's been a while since I visited this but want to know if there are any other open source block explorers out there.

Please post here if you know of any. Thanks.

Glad you liked them.

For those of you asking yes the prices are current.

How does checkpointing in PPC work?

Broadly I understand that Sunny King or a super user with a specific key signs the PPC's blockchain periodically to effectively lock it and prevent reorganisations.

I can't really answer the questions the way you are asking them.  I will give some details that might give you the answers you are looking for.

1,2,3. An InstanTX is a transaction that locks the input for the next 6 blocks.  So it doesn't allow any transactions that would use that same input during those 6 blocks.  This is all done in the masternode memory pool before it gets to the miners.  The other part of this is that you can't initiate an InstanTX transaction until the input you want to spend has 6 confirmations.

4. Masternodes are paid 45% of the block reward which comes out to about 2 dash once a week.

FYI, InstanTX will be changed to InstantSend in Version 12.1

Thanks for this.

You say it locks the input for the next 6 blocks, is that the input of the transaction that's just been broadcast to the network?

How do the masternodes pass this inforamtion about the lock to the miners?

Do you have any links to papers which cover this in more detail and also on fees disbursement to masternodes?

My apologies if these have already been asked and answered but I'm having difficulty getting definitive answers to the following:

1. When an InstantTX is initiated how are miners on the network notified that the output of a transaction already on the blockchain can only be spent by a transaction selected by a quorum of Masternodes? E.g. is a new block validation rule propagated across the network for the miners to follow?

2. Can an InstantTX reference a transaction which is in a miner's memory pool and not yet mined to a block in the way that transactions which have not yet been mined to a block can reference one another?

3. If there is a blockchain reorganisation because a longer chain is revealed to a part of the network is there a way to enforce the InstantTX is maintained. E.g. how long does the list of what InstantTX are valid remain cached with the Masternodes and miners?

4. How are master nodes remunerated for their services?

Does anyone know where I can buy MaidSafe coin? Which exchanges trade it?
154  Economy / Collectibles / Re: Physical Bitcoins & Litecoins for sale – UK Based Seller on: March 21, 2016, 06:50:00 PM
Yes; prices are current as of today.

All the coins, where listed, come with cryptographically signed PDFs from Casascius or Lealana to prove authenticity.

I found a link to some information here:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bc-kZXROTeMzG6AvH7rrTrUy24UwHoEcgiL7ALHMO0A/pub

Does anyone have a link to their white paper? Its been removed from the website.
156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Hyperledger - Implementation details on: March 16, 2016, 11:39:00 AM
I've read lots of functional level descriptions of what this technology is going to be capable of, but I've not come across any implementation details and I'm having problems tracking down a white paper, even though one is referenced in a few places.

Does anyone have any details about the actual capabilities of this project.

158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Was the first PoS coin Peercoin...? on: March 08, 2016, 04:59:17 PM
I remember (and my memory is not great) that a coin called 'miniblox' or 'minibrix' was the first to have proof of stake implemented and launched before Peercoin.

This coin no longer exists if I remember correctly.

Can anyone shed any light on this.
159  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: BitGold.com does not allow US customers to use its service - why? on: February 17, 2016, 04:47:34 PM
..With facta and needing money transmitter licences for every state...

Can you site any sources which summaries this, I was vaguely aware that money transmission businesses needed a licence per state.

Also when you say FACTA do you mean that BitGold would have to report all it's credit rating information to the three major US credit agencies?
160  Bitcoin / Legal / BitGold.com does not allow US customers to use its service - why? on: February 17, 2016, 10:43:01 AM
BitGold.com does not allow customers in the US to use its services.

Quote
Please note: At this time US residents are not able to send or receive payments

Can anyone shed light on to why this may be? I'm particularity interested in any legal reasons for this.
