Thanks for the answers on having your wallet open guys that helps a lot.
Woud it benefit the network were I to start a seed node?
Thanks
Not a problem We run the seed nodes ourselves due to the set up required and the need to monitor them for performance or failure due to their critical nature but you could set yourself up as a full node using your current client or wait until the new one comes online.I will ask mammix2 and see what he says. Thanks If you are running on the default Tor configuration, you would need 1 of the pre-determined onion addresses and host keys put in place. These are the list of onion addresses already in the code // hidden service seeds static const char *strMainNetOnionSeed[][1] = { {"vqr4nghlcpdipdpj.onion"}, {"yvjofqv4wox4ywwm.onion"}, {"dtc6mm23aexkkjtl.onion"}, {"7xcm543jtkje4mkv.onion"}, {"r2bqmq2uun4ojk45.onion"}, {"jo43ypvfj6me63ph.onion"}, {"7bzf57aacrsmvokz.onion"}, {"adkzksf6pfevieus.onion"}, {NULL} }; I think 3 of them have already been used by us on the 4 seed nodes we already run.The rest of the host files and keys here ready for more usage.Tor handles all the routing, even behind a non static IP address.

Re:Mining pool Prohashing is a pay per share (PPS) mining pool that mines cryptocurrencies using the scrypt and x11 algorithms. You rent your hashrate to them by connecting to the pool, and they pay you for your shares in any coin you choose. https://prohashing.com/explorer/BitcoinPlus/

Adding to the previous comment, it looks like it will be a mandatory update.Older versions will no longer be able to send tx's when the current development goes live.
Adding to this a whole lot of effort and time has been taken trying to get the native Tor part working in the upgraded client.If there was a way for it to work it would be done by so we have no choice but to set it aside and move on.Peter is away for 2 weeks but is going to mull over some other options put to him but if a solution can't be found we all have agreed to get the final stage complete without further delays so we can signal for the segwit.

Now that Bcash has been added to Shapeshift how about you add XBC which has been around a lot longer?
|
|
|
when will segwit activated? Q1
|
|
|
when will segwit activated? Q1 2018 but that can mean end of this month or march afaik. And at that time we will need new wallet for staking? Yes

Will the current wallet still work after segwit activates or do we need to upgrade?Obviously the current wallet will not be able to use segwit but will it work for transactions etc?
Thanks.
Once SegWit goes live old clients will no longer be able to create blocks.It is set to only accept version bits only blocks past activation.Old clients can be used for transactions but cannot be used for staking. You can have 2 clients.Old one for transactions only and new one for staking and segwit transactions.

I think it would be healthy for this coin to be on at least one other Real exchange such as BittrexCryptopia being the "potpourri" of the crypto sphere IMO. I'v always heard listing a coin on Poloniex is harder than doing so on Bittrex, I think the listing fee is 1 BTC there. any thought on this ? Cryptopia and coinexchange are fine.Many users are having major issues with Bittrex and they also want an upfront $10K fee to cover whatever they imagine are checks without any guarantee of a listing.Thats a non starter.HiBTC are having issues and livecoin want around $24k for a listing with bitcoin at these prices.Poloniex are our primary exchange and we never had any issues for many years now.It speaks for itself.We do continuously update exchanges with our developments but its up to them if they want to list us.Next big thing will be decentralized exchanges so thats the way we want to go.Decentralized exchanges have many advantages unlike some centralized exchanges who can freeze steal peoples coins without warning or go bust overnight OK fair enough, Obviously DEX are going to be a big thing, as of right now, 99% of the volume is still on centralised exchanges. Are you thinking of a particular DEX for XBC ? We are planning to list on NVO DEX once it's up an running.They were meant to have their wallet ready a few days ago but seem to be running behind schedule but according to their developer we would have no problem using it once they are live.

Actually this is way more fair that PoW mining. There are 3. reasons that immediately jump to mind: (please comment if you see any other differences) 1. For PoW mining to be profitable you need scale in order to be competitive. There is also variance on electricity price around the world. Some places you have free electricity if you know the right corrupt people. 2. When you buy a rig, you trust the manufacturer to provide it to you right away without using it themselves first. We would be fools to believe that they don't use the rigs for a little while before sending them off to their customers. This gives an automatic unfair advantage to rig manufacturers. 3. You cannot become a miner if you have say $100 or $1000. You really need a few thousand or 10s of thousands. This goes back to point 1 and 2.
With PoS mining, everyone is on level playing field IF the reward is the same. We know DASH for example, is not equal reward due to master nodes and they claim to achieve faster tx times due to master nodes. Anyhow, Bitcoin Plus is actually level and fair across the playing field. Everyone gets 20% mining stake reward per year. You can by 1 coin and get your 20% after some time. Granted it will take you longer to see that reward come in but it will equal out to 20% per year - just like people who hold 100 coins or 10,000 coins will get. The only difference for those who hold more XBC is that they see the reward more frequently, however it equals out to the same 20% per year.
You can invest with 1$ or 1000$ with XBC, you get the same reward until 1,000,000 coins are minted - approx 12 years from now. After 12 years you will get a proportional % of the fees as "minting" reward. Its not really minting at this point. Only at this point those with higher balances will get rewarded more.
Some good points here.We might be able to add some parts of this to the description on the site.Cheers

They have been contacted a couple of times already.People are welcome to email and tweet them too.The bigger the community voice the better regarding getting added to new exchanges.Bigger community equals more consistent trading activity in their eyes and there is no point getting listed and having another exchange with low volume.
We need an alternative to Poloniex - they are refusing to verify people! Plain and simple: They want to keep your coins on their exchange. I am not OK with $2,000 withdraw per day. What the fuck is this allowance BS? What's stopping you from using cryptopia or coinexchange?

Hi Can I make a few suggestions concerning the website? People that come from outside of crypto don't many times know what is Proof of Stake. We could mention what it means. Say for example... Bitcoinplus doesn't need energy intensive mining, unlike BTC & BCH. Which translates into many positive things: cost effectiveness, eco-friendly, no miner hassle etc... Then go down a little bit. It mentions 20% inflation. That's a big problem for newcomers. People don't understand what it means in crypto, so it's seen just as a threat. We'd need to open it up... that it's a possibility to earn. With so little coins it's hardly a threat, if the project just goes on. So encourage staking. Even Polo folks aren't interested in staking. They just want to make the quick buck. What do you think? escapecoin there already is a section on the website explaining PoS in some detail but if there is anything you would like to suggest something specific to be added to it let us know. https://www.bitcoinplus.org/blog/proof-stake-explainedThen go down a little bit. It mentions 20% inflation. That's a big problem for newcomers. People don't understand what it means in crypto, so it's seen just as a threat. We'd need to open it up... that it's a possibility to earn. With so little coins it's hardly a threat, if the project just goes on. So encourage staking. Even Polo folks aren't interested in staking. They just want to make the quick buck. 20% is what was agreed by the community as a staking reward for people who provide security for the network and confirm transactions.It is not an investment or security or any other form of money making scheme just similiar to the block reward for PoW etc. I think OP means if we call it inflation it doesn't sound good. we can say "expansion of coin supply" or "annual reward until coin supply reaches 1,000,000. It probably would be better worded to something like mining the supply into existence.It's no different from PoW mining of any coin out there except with PoS the bigger the stake you have the more you mine/mint.If you look at PoW and different mining difficulties its really all about the more you put in the more you get out.With PoW its investment in more hash power and with staking its the more coins you have staking in your wallet so its equally viable regards fairness.We did have a vote on it to try to split it up 50:50 PoW:PoS but we didn't get consensus.
