Hi everyone, I recently got in contact with a representative from Compassion and confirmed that Biblepay is indeed sponsoring the number of children it says it is. Below is the E-mail communication: Hi Michael, Sorry I was traveling for work this week and am now catching up on emails. As of Tuesday’s report we show 302 sponsored children in the BiblePay record. Rob says he shows 306. It could be that these 4 graduated recently, moved, and are being replaced with new children in the program as we speak. BiblePay has pre-paid for its kids many months in advance as well. Warmly, Ginger Here is Ginger's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginger-langehennig-4b31981b/ |

I think the prayer system is being abused again. The Romans 1:20 verse has been modified and posted.

Anyone want to come to a meet up on the east coast?

I talked to Compassion yesterday but I could not confirm the number of sponsorships due to privacy issues. Would you be willing to give them a call and ask them to add a note on the account that you allow general sponsorship data inquiries? This is what they suggested for the public to make inquiries. Can't you go the Accountability tab in the QT wallet and look at the PDF file? It clearly shows the number of sponsorships for a given month. The term "orphans" for Compassion.com is not accurate since their origins may have helped orphans, but now it is children in poor families. It wouldn't be hard as a wiki entry to tally up the count yourself and see how it changes per month on Compassion.com Now there are two other charities... they should be tracked as well for numbers and contribution dollar wise. I like looking at information from the source. Anything that is typed, printed, scanned or copied can be modified. |

The Slack link on Reddit and biblepay-central don't work. On biblepay-central it goes to the sign-in page but you can't sign up. Thanks.

I posted the list below on the Discord earlier this week. If people are having issues with Boinc payments then please submit the answer to these questions with your post. 1. What does the output of the following give you? 2. Have you been solved Rosetta/WCG tasks in the last 24 hours? 3. Are you on team BiblePay on Rosetta/WCG? 4. Are your computers on Rosetta/WCG hidden? 5. What is your name in the pool list? 6. Is your controller wallet connected to the internet 24/7? 7. What wallet version are you running? 8. When was the last time your wallet sent a PODC transaction (in the wallet transactions tab) This is a great list! Mike, maybe you could incorporate this in your FAQ on https://bbppodc.org/ ? Good idea, I'll add it within a few days. |

BiblePay - v1.1.2.2
Leisure upgrade for Exchanges
Note: All users and Sanctuaries must be on version 1.1.2.1+
(Required to propagate PODC contracts properly)
- Merged in Anton G's Hand-of-God icon updates (and splash screen update)
- 1.1.2.1 fixed the WCG rounding error and also extended the max govobj size to allow 32,767 CPIDs
The windows wallet on biblepay.org is still 1.1.1.9. It was updated 3 minutes ago. Hmmm, I just downloaded the 64 bit version and it's still 1.1.1.9. Maybe something is wrong with my computer, although the file size is the same as before. |

Rob,
Can you explain how you arrived at the WCGRAC on getboincinfo? I've been reading the forum but I'm still confused.
It's just the UTC 00:00:00 WCG RAC amount * 1.5 (if you are running the latest wallet) * UTXO_Depression (IE 1.00 for 100%, .90 for 90% etc) The sanctuaries re-assess the WCG RAC the same way during the calculation of the Total RAC. Ok, so my question is then where you got the "WCG RAC amount". Is it the RAC on on the Rosetta website? I thought it was actually *2 right now, has the bug been fixed? |

Just to be sure. Is this correct?
-In order to heat mine, you need magnitude.
-To get magnitude, you need to be included in at least one superblock.
-You need to stake at least 5% (1BBP/RAC) to be included in a superblock.
Because I was thinking about people that want to heat mine first in order to get BBP to stake for Boinc-mining. There are a lot of people that think exchanges are cumbersome (convert fiat to BTC to BBP). But I think the best route for them to go is to earn free BBP (Letter Writing, Gospel Links, BiblePay University) instead of heat mining, if it's impossible to get magnitude without staking first.
Yes, this was born from the back and forth Swongle discussions for added POW security. You do need to be in a superblock to receive magnitude, so that alludes to the fact you need at least 5% of your UTXO staked to fall in the 10% bracket. Of course if the RAC is low, thats not a lot of BBP. (Also you might add that unbanked CPIDs can be in a superblock without a UTXO). Remember they can get a few BBP from Faucets also. We might want to ask T-Mike to start an advanced faucet on PODC.org his web site to maybe compensat new Rosetta/WCG users with startup capital if they show a new CPID (to our system), he could fund them with P2P proposal funds (IE one 500,000 proposal for 6 months of new users capital etc). Just some thoughts: 1. How much BBP to send? 2. Should we check if the CPID had a valid task in the last 24 hrs? 3. Is something like if you stake 100k BBP then you can heat mine without having to do PoDC a good idea? It's really not hard to have just 1 PoDC thread running and heat mining all you want right now. So it would make it much simpler if you could heat mine with a certain amount of stake. It would be a really cool faucet if you could pull it off! I was thinking $10 worth of bbp, about 3000 bbp if you could make it dynamic. But I was thinking, if your faucet could access your sanctuaries SAN directory, you can memorize what is in the 'filtered' file once every half hour. (You can store those records in an SQL table, and refresh them by deleting them and re-saving them once half hour). Then you can scan that info, when they submit their CPID and see how old it is (calculated by using cpid_start_timestamp) - also see if their exp_avg_rac is > 0, and if the cpid is within say 30 days old (IE they are new), and they are on our Team (which is also in the file), and they have not been paid by your faucet, then they get the reward and you put a record in your sql table. So I think this could be abused because then I could create 1 account per day and earn 3000 BBP every day. It would meet account < 30 days, RAC > 0 , Team=Biblepay. Right? I haven't thought of a way to avoid this. |

BiblePay - 1.1.1.9
Leisure Upgrade for Users
Mandatory Upgrade for Sanctuaries
- J Guan's Chinese Translation
- Anton G's Hand-Of-God Theme
- WCG UTXO Depressed RAC levels for Sanctuaries
- PODC Metrics in getmininginfo (shows PODC Sent Count and Avg Sent Amount)
**** NOTE: To see the new wallet theme: If you are an Existing Biblepay user, you will need to click Settings | Options | Display | User Interface Theme | Choose Bezaleel, Save, and restart.
This is so the wallet persists the theme name permanently for you.
If you are a new wallet user: We choose Bezaleel as the default.
All credit goes to Yeshua!
Thanks for the contributions.
Let's go ahead and make this a mandatory upgrade for Sancs, so we can process the WCG credits properly.
Hey everybody! There are now two new ways to be notified of mandatory updates, you can either join Discord and be notified through the Announcements-news channel or subscribe to the mailing list at http://bbppodc.org. |

Please check out the FAQ for troubleshooting I just wrote and let me know if you have any comments or suggestions. I hope the FAQ will be able to cover 99% of the questions we have seen recently. https://bbppodc.org/index.php/podc-mining-guide/Please give me a merit point if you like the guide! - Mike |

While I'm happy to make a few more changes, I'd also like to throw together a proposal. It appears, although I might be wrong, that there is no way to deposit INTO the pool at this time, meaning that if we're withdrawing regularly, proposal submission is...difficult. Is that right? Is there a better way to get the 2500BBP to be seen by the submission system? Sorry, never done one before. We currently use the pool website to view and submit proposals: https://pool.biblepay.org/The Fee to submit a proposal on the pool is 2,500 BBP You are correct that there isn't currently a way to send coins to your pool account. So far historically Rob has manually done this for people who want to fund their pool accounts. I also extra funded my pool account and help people submit. == Right, it didnt show up in the pool because of #6596, are you reading the posts here? (I also replied 2 other times to you). I'm not sure if you meant #6595 or #6596 but I read the posts. I was just merely stating what happens if you do. |
