Working on it now.  I've done a lot of wiki stuff so I'll make sure its awesome.

It might be off topic, but 500 trillion watts of power being focused into the width of an No2 pencil is just plain awesome. I'd say were still pretty far off from it being a useful technology but the potential seems to be there.  

Sent you a pm

I'm still working on tracing back the wallet corruption issue. Transactions are working great but the app is still unable to save the blockchain state after a transaction is received.

I had thought i was fixed this issue but further testing revealed that it wasn't. Its not obvious where the error is and I've been filling the code with debug statments but havent found where the corruption is being caused yet.

I will keep everyone posted on the status

Thanks for the update!  I'll test it out when I get some time tonight

Take a look at mine as well please

I agree. The block reward will self adjust over time where they half ever 2 years (on average)

Adjusting the difficulty retargeting is one thing but I think the block rewards should be left alone

No we are not, and no it isnt!   The dev who runs the digibyte forum account has had some personal things to take care of and his posted has been limited the last few days.  

That does not mean work is not still being done.  lowered forum post frequency != dead  

I've been looking into the gravity well and am working on setting it up on a test net. Like someone mentioned it needs to be tested before its released. It would require a mandatory update so it need to be organised.  

I'm not sure how you'd get the idea we were gone

Not bad, simple and clean.  I sent you a few dgb's and ill add it to the entrys! Getting more then I expected, but Im not complaining. Lets just hope I don't run out of DGB

I like it!   sent you a few dgb





No worries man, the digiman version is actually growing on me    sent you a few dgb! I'll get you the proper digibyte font tomorrow for the top header!

I like that one!   Sent you a few DGB's for the hard work. 

Once we decided on the one to use I'll give a the creator a nice bonus.

Snotty, send me your dgb address so I can send you something for your work too!

The chain syncing issue has been resolved. It was actually really silly and was only something I would have experienced.

When I test an app I uninstall the app before if there was a previous version by dragging the icon to the trash bin. For whatever reason when I uninstalled the app to test the latest version it never deleted the blockchain or wallet data. Once I went to settings, uninstalled from there and re-installed the issue I was experiencing went away.

I'll be up for a little while yet so I could use a tester or two just to confirm its working correct, I don't want to start on the other areas until its confirmed working! 





Thanks man!

I'm really busy at the moment but I'll give you a pm when I'm around to help

I like that much better. The first one is my preference but DigiMan transposed on the background on the Spend side would look good I think. The font type for digibyte is "magneto" which you should have available if you have the adobe master suit.

Among other things I'm working on putting together pds/ai source imagery for marketing so I should have some better sources for you soon. I'll include rasterized versions of the type that can be used for anyone that might not have access to magneto font

Skipping the fact that even to clone an Android wallet from bitcoinj requires a large amount of knowledge in many different areas (c++, java, bitcoin protocol,etc) if it were 100% clone it would have been done long long ago as shown by the DigiByte wallet I've completed.  

While the UI might look the same at the moment in the sneak peek that was posted there were backend changes required to adapt to the transaction comment field. When I went into this project, I like you assumed it wouldn't be overly difficult and should only take a few hours to get it functioning. Punch in the genesis block info, pubkey, packetmagic all that good stuff and bam, android wallet. That however was not the case and I wasn't willing to give up when it started to get more difficult.

The serialization in bitcoinj, for lack of a better description is complicated. Its passed back and forth between different java streams and each stream had to be updated to handle the correct serialization. The protobuf libraries from google are part of the chain and is directly what has caused the majority of the time in development. I had never worked with protbufs before and going in I had only a vague idea of what a protobuf even was.

The amount of time I spent researching and then trying to implement the new serialization would have made most sane people quit. I'm sure there are others who could have managed it quicker then me but anyone who possesses the capabilities are surely already busy with their own projects. I had to learn the bitcoin specific info as I went,  a few months ago I barely even knew what a bitcoin was let alone have detailed knowledge of the protocol. HashEngineering's help was also invaluable as he helped get me back on track a few times when I was getting stuck.  

When its released it will support the Transaction Comment which you will be able to set in the send coins screen, something that no other Android wallet has. I am also going to update the color scheme and will have another little surprise when its released.

This is also an ongoing project. I don't plan on dropping an apk and disappearing. Updates will be made in both UI and functionality improvements. I had always planned on getting it functioning and then working on customizing and improving. Making it function has just been more work then I originally anticipated.

Any suggestions for future improvements would be greatly appreciated!

You betcha!    ebrPC5c1RddyCrWUg1q8EbAMcsnT5znyTq

I should have more news later this evening as I work on wrinkling out the last few bugs. Theres some customization I'm going to make before official release on the play store but I'll get it into some testers hands as soon as the blockchain remains synced

I do like this, there is one small problem.

If you look at the original image you see that its spilt in 3, which is so you can fold it and hide the private key.  On the front is the logo and the back has the address for "spend".  Ideally you would then place some sort of tamper proof sticker.

You don't really want the private key visible as that reporter on TV found out with bitcoin when he accidentally showed his private key on live tv and someone took it.   

Like was mentioned, it doesn't have to be the same but I do believe it should be foldable!

Sure thing! I threw the image up on dropbox for simplicity. I'd prefer png for the final image as well

https://www.dropbox.com/s/zw0v0iwxmxbmj4a/currentPaperWalletImage.png

Just make sure to leave the blank areas blank (other then the background).   To see where the qr images are placed you can go goto the site and click on the paper wallet tab but I don't have there exact location.

I wouldn't mind 2 so if anyone else is up to it I'll bounty that as well.  The more awesome they are the more awesome my bounty shall be

Android

I can't speak to all of it but   digiaddress.org  is up and running, still waiting for a proper image for the paper wallet. I'll provide a small bounty for it if anyone is up to it. You can grab the current image off the site if your interested. Albeit a small bounty as its from my own personal mining, not the development account.

The light wallet is a while away, I suspect at least a month. There is a few things I'm finishing up with the android wallet before I can devote more time to it.

I'm currently finishing up "print to google cloud" feature for printing QR codes from the android wallet and will be pushing it out early next week. I'm also working on updating the color scheme to match DigiByte better and should have that at the same time.

That is just stuff I'm working on though, I'm not sure of the eta's on the other stuff.  I've been too busy working to stop and ask
