I'm pretty sure I followed up with this but just in case anyone doesn't know:

Poloniex got back to me on 11th Sept with this:

Quote
Hi catbref,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.  The engineering team has cleaned up the missing withdrawals.  Please let us know if you hear of any more issues.

Best,
Poloniex Support Team

So if you've have a pending withdrawal ticket before the 11th, or you withdrew but the funds 'disappeared', then it might be a good idea to open a fresh ticket with Polo to withdraw your Qora to your wallet.
Don't forget to use the latest release v0.26.11 instead of the old v0.26.0 (or worse) as there have been tons of bugs fixed since then.

If anyone does open a fresh withdrawal ticket, please report back with success or otherwise.

In other news, on Friday we had a Qora v2 node synced up to date with blocks fed from a v0.26.11 node. The main hurdle to this milestone was the [re]implementation of CIYAM AT library.
The previous CIYAM AT code was too tightly integrated with Qora and MapDB to re-use. The new library is built to be coin-independent so can be imported into other coins, which allows more atomic cross-chain transfers (ACCT).

BTC-Qora ACCTs have been demonstrated but we still need a user-friendly way of building them, maybe a website, maybe a Qora2 plug-in.

that's what i got from polo yesterday!


Thanks for contacting our support team, and thank you for your patience in regards to this open case.

QORA was delisted from our exchange and its wallet was removed from Poloniex. At this time, it is not possible to access this coin. Your balance is now archived and is no longer available for withdrawal.

Circle aims to provide customers with the most innovative projects that fuel the industry and to ensure the assets meet the high standards customers deserve, which is why we created the Circle Asset Framework. Under the Circle Asset Framework, we consider listing or delisting assets based on whether the asset has sufficient trading volume, whether it aligns with the core tenets of the crypto community, whether it is backed by robust technology, whether it creates real value for a meaningful number of customers, and whether it’s backed by a strong, experienced team. In addition, we also consider other factors such as new guidance from regulators.
 
While we understand your frustration, this asset doesn't align with our Circle Asset Framework. If it becomes accessible again in the future, we will be sure to let all affected customers know.
 
Please let us know if you have any additional questions about your account in the future and we will be happy to help.

Best,
Poloniex Support Team


Hah... wow.

They seem to be c/p answers to everyone. What exactly doesn't 'align with the circle framework'? Seems to me that QORA has had more than most other coin in terms of technology for many years now.

The only part about this that really sucks and matters, is the fact that you lost your existing balance on the exchange. The listing on the exchange itself doesn't matter all that much, as QORA will BE an exchange soon enough.


How many coins did you lose?

bad news regarding silver coins
they expect a delay and a delivery towards me not before week 47
and as i said additional working steps also needed like attach the holograpfic sticker
and final package together with goddie pack
and in that timeframe im also 1 month away on a trip to thailand (week 48 to week 02)

so i expect start sending out silvercoins will be delayed towards late jannuary early february

next update is great, from which nothing results.

Months have passed, there is no website, no exchange. There are a lot of ideas for that, every week a different concept for qora, hallelujah  Tongue Tongue

New round of ICO for the new chain might change developers minds and give it another shot.

Question is, are people willing to throw some extra BTC at a reboot of Qora or do people just want free coins for doing nothing?

There was already and ICO and the current devs are not a part of it. Doing another ICO would mean a swap and create more coin. But instead Crow is Honoring the ICO / coin holders since the codebase is being used and modified. These holders are now Liquidity providers and look to be compensated as if they were an Exchange but decentralized. So no ICO would be needed since Q2 will be a Monatization of its own through PoW or some other function. It seems like honoring the current coin holders by not diluting their shares would be a preference and puts less pressure on the current devs also. I think this path of least resistance is the best option and the functionality makes Q1 stand out to where it has a usefulness to the coin instead of just trading it endlessly back and forth.

Now also any Q1 holders will know about Q2 and can leverage the platform there also. It is like Q1 is also a springboard into Q2 and Q2 will still need Q1 for Liquidity. No ICO either so this is a free entry and market. Best of Both worlds!

How will it be diluted if the coin is worth almost $0 at the moment? There is no volume and one exchange no one know who is operating.

What I was trying to get at is that maybe the devs need some incentive to continue, all I keep seeing is "I bought years ago and now want my speculative investment to make me lots of $$$"

Tell me, which is better: A new round of funding so the devs can be paid for their work (they have to eat and pay living expenses after all) or just hold onto something that will most likely be forgotten soon.

The fact that the amount of coin would be more, would mean a dilution. That's what he meant.


To answer the ICO questions, as straightforward as possible... simply this... - I will not be taking part in an ICO that doesn't have a REALLY good reason to be an ICO, which includes having a functioning and used platform worthy of requesting funding via that ICO.

Simply put, I 99.9% of the time, am ANTI-ICO.



The payment of the devs, is something I am handling myself, regardless of the fact that I am not an original QORA holder.


We have taken the existing platform and fixed it, added more functionality, and addressed many issues. We didn't HAVE to do this. We could have let QORA die, fork a new project, and done a bunch of nonsense like the other idiots, and gotten a bunch of money for nothing. But we did NOT do that. We are for HONESTY. Getting money for nothing, is NOT honest.


That being said, I understand the fact that we have thrown many ideas out there recently. This is to retain OPENNESS AND TRANSPARENCY to the community. To let them know what is going on, what we are thinking, etc. Until recently, we didn't have anything 'set in stone' as far as how we will move forward. However, now, we do.



Gen 1 QORA - Will be 'QORA'.

Gen 2 - Will be a totally different project, with reliance upon Gen 1.

There will be NO SWAP, but instead, solid ways for QORA holders to make gains on their coins, and/or an easy way to sell for the people who don't believe we're doing what we say. Simple, right? I think so.



QORA - will become a trade gateway (or a 'DEX' if you prefer that term, but we do not.) where the people providing liquidity on the markets, get rewarded for doing so.

The method of obtaining these rewards, will be through the utilization of methods taken from Karmaship and other ideas. Utilizing 'SuperNodes', and liquidity on the Decentralized Trade Portal 'order books' to give 'weight' to the SuperNodes.

The larger your buy support orders, and the higher price, the more you will earn. Every detail hasn't been fully worked out here.



The website - we have not put it up, because frankly, it doesn't matter yet. It will be put up when it matters. Having a website doesn't mean anything, it's cool for when you have information to get to people, but right now we don't. There is simply no need for a website.

I do, however, retain the ownership of the qora.org domain. Along with multiple 'core nodes' that have supported the network for a couple years now.


QORA - will have value because it will be a decentralized trade portal. The existing coins will be used to 'power' the portal. Utilizing them as means to post orders, etc.

The portal's UI will be built ON QORA. Making it fully accessible via either a hosted node, or a local one.


The 'supported coins' will come slowly but surely, starting of course, with BTC, and LTC.



The portal's 'power' being liquidity, means that people providing the reason for people to use the portal (the ones putting the coins up for people to sell into, etc.) will be rewarded.

The 'fees' for placing orders, which in our case will be by a simple modification of placed orders done by the UI itself, will also go to the SuperNode holders (liquidity providers.)



What we have been referring to as 'Gen 2' will be a totally new platform with a new name (which hasn't been decided yet.) This platform will be focused on media in multiple ways. Becoming a blogging/vlogging/chat platform, and much more.

This platform will utilize a bunch of new methods to reward its users, and to create a system with a REAL 'level' system to show who actually supports the network and who doesn't. Then utilizing this, provide a GREAT method for voting, which isn't reliant upon coin count but instead network 'reputation' or 'trust'.

This will be done in a fashion similar to an MMO, making it fun, and 'quirky' and game-like. This will entice users to raise their account's level, gain influence on the network, etc.

Also the implementation of 'proof of burn' where users can burn their newly created coins only, in exchange for a lowered mining difficulty and level increase at a higher pace.

We may also tie in with Karmaship and make use of their 'proof of experience' algo as well, in one way or another. Again, not all of these ideas are fully formulated.



The 'Gen 2' platform, will be reliant upon Gen 1 for all trades it needs, and also CrowdFunding via the SmartContract powered totally decentralized 'Qrowd' (or QrowdFund as it is called pre-name-change.)

All of these things will work seamlessly together, and will be TOTALLY INDEPENDENT OF ANY CENTRAL CONTROL. This means QORA cannot DIE, or be heavily manipulated by any centralized party. It will not be reliant upon exchanges, or anything else. This will make it unique, and one of the only FULLY INDEPENDENT BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORMS. Meaning, it won't need anything to trade with BTC, and multiple other projects, nor will it need anything from anyone at all in order to function with all other intended functions.


BTC directly will be acceptable for most any service on the networks of the platforms. Making this also a totally unique feature. Multiple other decentralized applications, REALLY decentralized applications, can be built atop either platform, and/or built from clone platforms, and then easily tied into the others, to leverage their value and services.



I realize these things are all long-term and will likely take some time. But if you recall, I have said this from the beginning.


Also, remember, we have NOT BEEN PAID ANYTHING, and I have put a SIGNIFICANT amount of funding FROM MY OWN POCKET, into the development of the platform.


IF YOU DON'T REALIZE THINGS ARE GOING ON DEVELOPMENT WISE, YOU MUST NOT KNOW HOW TO USE GOOGLE. As the information is clearly there in the github, multiple new changes happening frequently. The main dev is frequently commenting here as well.


JUST BECAUSE THERE IS NO EXCHANGE AND NO WEBSITE ONLINE RIGHT NOW, does NOT mean that the project is not being worked on. In fact, the reliance upon an exchange is a BIG PROBLEM, one which we intend to solve once and for all.


Feel free to ask any other questions and I will answer them to the best of my ability. Thank you.

regarding your exchange idea:
we happy for any additional exchange/dex listing dmd gets
but please be aware dmd will go through a massive codeupgrade soon
wait for new source come online before u do coin specific development to integrate dmd

Sounds good. Thank you for the information regarding the silver coin, I am certain I want to do that. Please reserve a place for me, or if I have to do something else other than stating it here, I will.

In regard to the trade portal, we still have some time to complete development anyway, so no worries. We will wait for the next DMD version. Thank you!

dear dmd comunity i join this project some weeks now i did buy my dmd at livecoin.net but that excanger starting to scam like missing depost no repleys unable to trade . so i check for more dmd excanger and see crypobridge and bittrex thats a big problem for me 1 cryptobridge seems like a scam 2 expensif price and extreem low trading

then 1 is left bittrex my problem with them is privatie i dont like to id verfication just to trade some dmd

i short words anny plans to put ur coin on a good excanger ? i see dmd is like 5 years or so and stil only listed on 1 real excanger bittrex the another 2 are scam excangers . im not sure if this is a sereus projeckt or just a dump pump sceme ?

This project is more than 5 years old.
The award is gradually reduced.
DMD has clear plans for the future.
In addition to exchanges, there is still an exchanger https://exchange.bit.diamonds or https://simpleswap.io/ where registration is not required.
I am sure that after updating the wallet we will get additional conversion methods for DMD.

Despite the gradual decline in the reward, DMD is still a profitable investment tool as it allows anyone who wants to invest in this coin to receive a regular income.
You do not need to buy specialized equipment for this will fit a regular old PC or laptop.
In addition, the entire DMD network consumes minimal energy compared to any POW coins.
So wise investors always consider different sides of an investment asset  Wink

Speaking of additional methods...

I would potentially like to talk to the DMD team about an option in the near future we will have...


At the moment, our team is building out QORA that exists now (and has since 2014) into a 'Decentralized Trade Portal' or 'trade gateway'. Essentially this is a DEX, however, it is directly cross-chain from one personal wallet to another, and therefore is reliant upon the block times of the coins involved in the trade, and as such is not suitable for use as a 'day trader' type exchange (since the trade 'speed' will not be suitable for this... at least not at launch.)

But... With this trade portal comes many unique opportunities. Such as the ability to list solid projects... like DMD.

The portal will not list any projects that are not long-term focused and known personally in terms of the teams behind them. I have been dealing with the DMD team for years now, and would have no issue in allowing DMD to be one of the first projects to be listed on the platform.

We are now in process with development. It should only be a few more months until the project is able to be realized. I think DMD would be a great fit (especially after finally getting around to reading the recent newsletter in my email inbox...) and would love to speak to the team about potentially working this opportunity out, making it a reality.


I know some of the DMD team hold QORA, or did at one point... and that we have been developing silently for a while, but everything is finally coming together, and with the plans for the future we have, I am certain that QORA will have a very solid place in the crypto ecosystem. Let me know if you guys are interested in potentially becoming a supported coin on the platform.

The platform will make use of the CIYAM AT system (v2 that we are developing), and the 'gen 2' backend for QORA that is also in development. It will use SmartContracts from the AT platform, along with a java-based BTC clone capable core wallet installed along with the QORA core wallet to make directly cross-chain trades between supported coins. (First of which, of course, will be BTC.)

After the initial launch, with BTC support, we will begin consideration of other tokens being listed. There is still adequate time, but I wanted to reach out with this information now so that we can begin talking about it if you're interested.


The goal of the platform is to provide a method of direct trades p2p for all involved, without nonsense manipulation and control that comes along with centralized exchanges and day traders with bots.



We too believe, that in the future the crypto ecosystem will not only run the entire world economy and most all technology platforms, but will be a joint-ecosystem where direct trades will be a HUGE part of the way people conduct business. I personally have ALWAYS been the type to collaborate with other good and honest teams whenever possible, and believe that without this collaboaration betwixt teams in crypto platforms, negative and evil people will use crypto to capitalize on unsuspecting people, and an eventual downturn towards everything being equated with negativity could ensue. I personally will fight the good fight as long as possible, to ensure the good people in the space prevail, and those looking to do harm get out of the way, and sent packing whenever possible.



OH YEA - ONE MORE THING


I'm extremely interested in the silver coins you're putting out, let me know what needs to be done in order to acquire one, or be placed on the reservation list for such acquisition. Much appreciated!


Hope everything continues going well for the DMD foundation and all involved with this project! I have been a long-term public supporter, and private investor, and would love to have collaboration in other regards in the future.


Talk soon!
226  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: -ANN- POLYTIMOS - NEW algo - FAIR ninja launch - NO pre,insta,ICO on: October 21, 2018, 10:53:40 AM
The smart people know that this one is a hidden gem. The ones without loud promotion are generally always the gems. We have many plans for the long-term for this one.

What smart people? They must be way smarted than me because I see 0 action on GitHub in the entire year of the project's lifetime. There is nothing smart here, nothing medium and nothing stupid, literally. Someone started it to see how rich he could become with a new algo, that's all. Then he created a new nick and started something else. Projects with many anonymous people may be scams, but projects with one anonymous person must be scams.

There isn't meant to be anything 'smart' going on at the moment. The launch of the project went as planned, that is all that was planned for sure. The rest will become reality as it will.


The project will progress as it will. The fact is, there is a group of people who are there for the project, and that group continues to grow silently. The need for this information to be believed is irrelevant. The truth will be shown, as it always is, in time.

The fact is always there, that you are not FORCED to support any project. If you believe you are too impatient, it doesn't have people that are doing what they say, or whatever reason really... you can definitely do whatever you want, including being part of the project or not, holding it or not, etc.

The choice is yours.

Where is the creator of the theme with the nickname "whereismyname"?

He has been away for a long time on the forum and in this thread and it is very alarming.
It seems the project is dead.

This is a shared account between a few of the core team that started the project. The whole idea is to maintain a high level of openness and transparency.


Do not worry about the presence of this account in terms of activity. I can assure you it is irrelevant.


This project will continue far into the future. We have plans for it, I can assure you of that fact.


For now, it matters little if the population at large believes it to be alive or dead. The ones that keep up on the inside, which is easily accessible, know that there are plans and that it is simply not actively being focused on at the moment, as far as the core development goes. There is no need for heavy modification on the core code at this time. When that time comes, that work will be done.


The focus was a great launch, which it had, and now to continue the spirit of community-driven development, openness, and community involvement.


The expansion of the community in terms of various promotional efforts will also happen, as things progress, and resources become available.


The thing with projects launched in this fashion, is there is a significant lack of upfront funding. This causes things to progress a little slower, but overall to be a lot stronger. This has been proven many times with multiple other projects, and POLY will be no exception.

There is a platform in development, which has slowed a bit recently due to developers having multiple things going on at once, but shall complete, and progress nicely in the future.


228  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Qora | POS | Assets | Names | Polls | Automated Transactions | Social Network on: October 21, 2018, 09:48:39 AM
How will Qora gen2 be distributed if there isn't a swap, are you planning an ICO now, or is distribution from mining now exclusively?

If Qora gen1 holders don't get any swap, what keeps the community supporting Qora gen2? I need some more explanation to be convinced with this plan.

I would think mining is the only viable way to start. This would be a great way to equalize for all holders of Qora v1 to get in on the new Q2 without a swap. And it sounds like any Qora Gen 1 gets to be a liquidity provider for Qora v2. If v2 would not be listed on any other Exchange and force people to use Q1 for liquidity. It is a great strategy. It only seems logical that there would be no need to have an Exchange list Q2 if a DEX is listing it on Q1. Now you don't have to worry about KYC/AML requirements and daily volume limits.

snapshot is also not a bad idea for the transition v2, so much we have been talking about it for 2 years and no action here can be seen. I really have no patience for this project


Snapshot is good provided that they make the v1 private keys compatible to v2. Then no one will lose any coin. This is the safest way.



It would be great to have all the details for the roadmap, swap, and gen 2 distribution/emission nailed down asap, Qora missed the 2017 party, we don't want to miss the next one by not having everything sorted before the next bull market. I suspect things are being worked out in private behind the scenes, but the community needs to digest the roadmap so any pissed off people can exit, the last thing Qora needs is infighting and confusion just after something like a bakkt crypto wide pump starts.

I still don't know how Qora gen2 gets distributed .... swap, airdrop, mining ...


I will put something out, my issue is that I don't like to talk about things until they are either complete, or fully thought out. Which, in some cases means that I do not talk about things very frequently at all...

But I do understand that people would like to 'see' what we're thinking. So, what I like to do instead, is what I call an 'idea map'. Which, I agree, I haven't put out in quite a while... and is probably a decent idea.



We have simply been VERY busy. There are many things going on in multiple avenues at the moment, and it doesn't look to be slowing any time in the foreseeable future from what I can tell (which is definitely a good thing overall.) The ideas for what QORA will be, are frequently being modified, and adapting to other concepts we are putting together, etc... which means that an idea map is something that would be in constant flux, and as such is a bit difficult to accurately portray on a static medium.

Nonetheless, I WILL put something together here, as I believe we finally DO have a solid plan for the overall nature of the future of both the existing platform, and for what is being referred to as 'Gen 2', which in reality is going to be a plethora of various chain platforms all working as one in the future.

What we know as 'QORA' now, will be the foundation for so many fantastic new platforms and ideas... I truly believe that people will be extremely excited to be part of it.




...


'QORA' - the platform now - is to become an 'exchange'. However, this exchange is not typical. It is so not typical, in fact, that it will not be called an exchange at all.

Instead, it will be called a 'Gateway' or 'trade portal'. (Personally, I am fond of the name 'Q-Gate', but that is not decided yet.) This gateway, will be multiple things. First of which, is TOTALLY TRUSTLESS. The methods utilized in the transactions carried out on the platform, are those which exercise the use of 'Atomic Cross-Chain Transfers' (or direct cross-blockchain coin trades. wallet-to-wallet, with no central authority.)

This will create a fully automated trade ecosystem, without central authority whatsoever.

This platform too, will make use of a newly devised method (by our team) of 'powering' the blockchain backend that comprises the core of the functionality... This method will essentially power the chain utilizing 'liquidity' as the variable. Making use of all blockchain-located data, the chain itself will be moved in accordance to guidelines of liquidity, in the 'order books' of the system itself. Because these are all verifiable blockchain-located data sets, the ability to make use of them to move the chain, is viable. (Every detail is still being worked out, however, the concept and base ideas are there.)

'SuperNodes' will be utilized in the system, in order to 'verify and track' the 'liquidity providers' of the system, rewarding them in accordance to the location, duration, and size of their orders on the books. (Rules will be finalized in regard to these methods, and have yet to be fully thought out.)

This method, I personally believe, will provide a very stable, self-sustaining ecosystem that contains value-adding properties for the underlying service token of the platform, which is QORA itself.

Given that QORA is a coin that has not only been released for many years, and the fact that its supply has been diminished from exchange issues, losses, and people 'giving up' on the coin in a more direct way than many other platforms (given the fact that the project has been seen as 'dead' for probably years in the eyes of most, and on the surface according to the search engines of the 'interwebz') The circulating supply is relatively unknown, and many other 'dead coin' 'issues' may affect any swap attempt in the future... Therefore...

A SWAP IS NOT GOING TO BE COMPLETED AT ANY POINT. However, the value provided to existing QORA coins will be immense once the platform described above briefly comes to fruition.


Keep in mind as well, that the development was picked up by our team. We are not holders from the original coin ICO, nor are we large holders by any means regardless. The project development was picked up due to merit of the underlying architecture and technology, and overall ideas that were put in place in QORA. We could have simply created a clone, but we did not. We chose to 'revive' the existing coin, and fully intend to fulfill that promise. However, we do believe that swapping from QORA to any other chain, in the ideas we had originally provided, is a bad idea, and will do nothing to benefit the Gen 2 platform. Hence, we shall not execute said swap.

Thank you all, and here's to the future of QORA and all that come from its codebase!

-[ANNouncement]- QORA 0.26.11 version released + direction change + decentralized trade gateway (QORA-Trade, or Q-Gate, QORA-Gateway... decentralized 'shapeshift-like' trades for all) discussion beginning


Hello all! I know it has been a while since the last update, however, a lot has happened! We have assisted in development and launch of the world's first QORA clone, containing with it some new ideas on how to run a truly fair experience based economy. The beta version is released, and is a clone of QORA gen 1 with new functionality, and completely new ideas implemented. The project is called KARMAship, and you can find out more information about it here... https://karmaship.io

With the partnership of the KARMAship guys, comes many new opportunities for QORA, added function to its codebase, and some overall different ideas that since being made possible for KARMA, has changed the way I am thinking about a few things and the overall direction for QORA itself.

With that being said...



Ideas for QORA Gen 1 - The Trade Gateway and CrowdFunding platform with direct cross-chain trades p2p and fully decentralized

The overall idea here is this... We would like to build a UI atop the QORA chain that will contain within it the functionality for DIRECT cross-chain trading with BTC. (Other projects will be able to be added as well, however, BTC and probably LTC, along with one or two others will be the beta.)

The platform will be built with the idea to be utilized transparently within the CrowdFunding SmartContract (currently called 'QrowdFund' but will be renamed to 'Qrowd' and be perfected and modified into a single application)

This SmartContract, is already a totally automated and decentralized application running atop the QORA chain. We will pair it with enhanced function, a better look, and more features, to make it the premier Bitcoin CrowdFunding application.

The application will be the only of its type in existence, built atop a fully decentralized system, with EVERYTHING including the UI, backend, etc... running ON CHAIN, on the QORA existing blockchain.

The application will bring with it the following...



- The ability to fund projects and ideas and whatever people use CrowdFunding like 'GoFundMe' for... in Bitcoin directly, without even realizing the user is making use of an  altcoin at all.

- Everything that utilizes QORA for the backend function, will be done fully transparently. Giving the feel and idea of full Bitcoin-only use. Bitcoin, and probably Litecoin and eventually others will be supported.

- Users of the platform will not ever know they are making use of an alt, instead will only see and make use of Bitcoin directly. Allowed to fund their projects/ideas with Bitcoin directly from other user contributions.



The backend of the Qrowd application, will take fees in QORA and BTC for the users putting up their projects and ideas, which will be given out to the new 'SuperNodes' on QORA network... Which brings me to...


QORA Gen 1 - The addition of 'SuperNodes' , 'Qrowd' (fully decentralized Bitcoin CrowdFunding platform/application) and 'QORA-Trade' (the fully decentralized cross-chain coin trade gateway and order book system)

Within the launch of the KARMAship platform, was the addition of 'SuperNodes' to the QORA codebase. This idea sparked another idea that I had been attempting to finalize for a while, for QORA itself, as it sits in Gen 1. The idea is to allow for 'SuperNodes' that will be the liquidity providers on the QORA network for use of the Qrowd app and the Trade Gateway, and in turn be rewarded with the associated fees from the platforms.

SuperNodes will be implemented into QORA. These nodes will be the ones that are reaping the rewards from the use of the Qrowd application, its fees, and the use of the 'trade gateway' (essentially a DEX but only used for trades directly between people, and not used for 'day trading'. At least not right away...)

The SuperNode specifics are still being decided, and have yet to even really be discussed within the core team, but as the details get decided, we will come post them here for everyone.

Liquidity providers coming into the QORA ecosystem will be given SuperNodes, so that their contribution of liquidity necessary to run the applications that will be built atop QORA, will be rewarded in kind.

These SuperNode 'owners' will be able to be changed, as it is not a given that the SuperNode holders and thus liquidity providers will remain being such. Therefore, there will be a unique method of 'being an owner' over the rewards provided by each SuperNode.

The SuperNodes, I'm still deciding upon exact specifics for, however, I believe they will most likely simply be the 'block producers' of the network. The QORA algo will be modified from providing rewards to individual users, to instead, only providing the network fees associated with transactions to the SuperNodes, along with the Qrowd fees, and trade gateway fees.

There will be a limited number of SuperNodes on the network, which will have to be decided upon by QORA community and such as time goes on... we will make decisions and post them for discussion in Discord prior to implementation.

I believe the best way to handle things, would be to have a SmartContract be the sole 'owner' of the SuperNode's private keys, then have a method of 'assigning ownership' of the supernode's rewards, to a given account based on votes done within the QORA ecosystem. However, the votes will also need to be changed in terms of how they function, because right now the votes being solely reliant upon the amount of coins in the account of the holder, is I believe, an incorrect way of doing things, and should not be the way it is done. Therefore a new voting system will need to be created. We may potentially take a few 'ideas' from the KARMAship network in regards to the way this system will work as well, though this has yet to be discussed. More detail will follow as it is decided upon.



QORA Gen 1 - There will no longer be a 'swap' upon the release of Gen 2 (please limit the flames to 1 per second. At least until reading the entire post. Wink )


Because QORA Gen 1 will be a multi-faceted platform for decentralized trading and CrowdFunding, and a mechanism put in place to reward liquidity providers, and allow users to make the best use of these systems... Generation 1 of QORA is NOT going to be taken down. It is NOT going to be stopped, and it is NOT going to be swapped to the Gen 2 chain upon release.

I know this may be the opposite of what most people thought was going to happen, and that's because... well... it's the opposite of what we had initially thought as well. But we have many reasons for this.


- QORA as it sits, is already fully mined out. This means there are no 'new rewards' for 'mining' etc... Therefore, another method is needed to 'power the chain' and keep it going. Thus... the applications and SuperNode system is perfect for this, and will only work within an ecosystem that is already in the state such as QORA is.

- QORA has a cap and it will continue to have one. This will give more inherent value to the existing coins held, especially considering many of them have been lost since launch, and QORA holders who still have their tokens will be able to continue having them, however with a reason for them to increase in value being implemented.

- The overall QORA platform is too functional... I know, what? Right?... it's true... Right now, there is simply too much that is possible within the current QORA platform. If we were to make use of all of it, there would simply be too much running on a single chain, and we would run into issues with scaling, etc... similar to what we're seeing with ETH. We would like to avoid this. Therefore a more 'clear focus' is needed, and we believe the  Qrowd and Trade applications, will be the perfect use case for the existing chain.



Generation 2 - The social media / blog  revolution!


The next gen of QORA, which currently we're only naming 'Generation 2', will be renamed, and rebuilt into a Social Media and Blogging platform, with much enhanced functionality over the original QORA platform. Increased db capacity and improved network layer, and a whole lot of new features related. Such as video streaming, video hosting, and a lot more. The possibilities are truly endless. We hope to eventually have the ability for 'server side' things to be hosted within the platform.


- A 'clear focus' is ALWAYS needed on blockchain platforms... therefore, we will continue with this in mind, making Gen 2 into a specialized platform for Social Media and blogging, with an extremely enhanced ecosystem containing within it a ton of totally new ideas for 'fairness' and fair pay for good content. A lot of more details will follow.

- Many clones of QORA's underlying platforms will be created, each with their own specific function and design and use cases. This is how we will make the most of the platform overall.

- With the 'Trade Gateway' developed on Gen 1 QORA, there will no longer be any real NEED for exchanges. Also, the Trade Gateways themselves, will be MUCH harder to manipulate, since they will not be useful for bots, or 'day trading'. Giving the projects that are ONLY listed on these gateways, MUCH more of a REAL value. There will be a LOT of interesting uses for this, and a lot more.





The Trade Gateway itself, is already in development, and should be completed in a relatively short period of time. The SuperNodes, still need discussion on how exactly they will function, but also won't take long to implement, but will definitely require a fork, I believe only a soft fork, but maybe a hard fork will be necessary. Updates will be provided as they come.

Feel free to ask questions here or in Discord. Thanks!

is this project still alive?

The project is very much alive and well.

In fact, things are moving along VERY well.


We are simply choosing to stay more quiet at the moment, until the time is right. I will make another announcement shortly.

is someone still mining this ?


of course, else there wouldn't be a blockchain, right? Wink


The smart people know that this one is a hidden gem. The ones without loud promotion are generally always the gems. We have many plans for the long-term for this one.

What is best miner for nvidia cards for this algo and can anyone give 1070 cards hash rate?

The 'enemy' miner is thus far my best tested miner. The newer versions do quite well. I don't recall the exact hashrate off the top of my head but I will post more at a later date.

Hello all, just wanted to stop by and give some development updates... We are looking into the idea of modifying the future of the project in terms of when PoS kicks in and implementation of MasterNodes into POLY itself.

Given the release of POLYSHIELD public beta which is right around the corner, and offering MasterNode host/share and stakepool... We thought it might be nice that POLY itself be included in both aspects of that aside from being the 'main token' for the platform.


So, we would like to get the community's opinion on the following:


1. We are considering implementing MasterNodes into POLY sooner than block 800k. This could be much sooner, we were thinking within the next couple months.


2. We were also considering modifying the algo a bit , (this is not necessary, simply something that one of the devs on the team brought up) to further ensure the lack of ASIC ability (aside from our own ASIC devices which would only make sense as small home devices, but this is a long time in the future so we aren't worried about it right now.)

3. POLYSHIELD team is considering making its own POLY wallet, which would contain extra functionality built by and for the POLYSHIELD platform. It would contain all the function of the MasterNode host/share, stakepool, (poloniex lendbot potentially), and more built in a 'wrapper' that would essentially be a 'new wallet' for POLY. We wanted to get some opinions on this. The wallet would not be the 'official wallet' merely a '3rd party' wallet built by and for use of POLYSHIELD. It would also be able to implement other unique features. Potentially making use of the Discord POLY.bot for some cool unique features and functionality. We wanted to see the response of the community on this idea.

4. We are considering implementation of PoS into POLY sooner than block 800k as well, with also implementation of the MasterNodes into POLY itself. This would enable staking of the coins already mined, and allow POLY itself to be part of the stakepool being made by POLYSHIELD.




We are anxiously awaiting the replies of the community on these points, and any other opinions on POLY or anything POLY related, overall. Thank you!


Also we wanted to thank crowetic for assisting POLY in getting its second exchange listing. Thanks!

Hi,
0. It's unclear when to wait for the beta version, this month? this year? The deadlines are not clear.
1. Why not, I'm for. The main thing is that everything would work, it is stable and there was no violation of integrity.
2. I'm against it. I understand how you want to make an asik stable algorithm and at the same time produce an asik? if you can make your own asik, then another organization can also. Sense is lost.
3. I am for, but this idea can be tolerated. And again the main thing is that everything would work stably and there was no crude version.
4. I am for, also provided the stability of the entire system.

Thank you very much for your opinions. I will reply hence...

0. The reason this is unclear is because... well... it is unclear. We haven't yet decided one way or the other. We are presenting the potential for the idea to be executed. We will further discuss options once we decide whether we're going to do so or not.

1. We are also for it, we are probably going to go for it.

2. Yes, this idea isn't fully formulated, and is not going to be done anything with at the moment. We have yet to come up with the ideal solution that we have in our heads.

3. This will likely happen.

4. This ties in with 1, and will be likely done, we will post more as time goes on and we make more decisions.

Are there still no news if and when AMD cards will be ready to mine the Phi2 algo?
You can mine PHI2 with fancyIX's AMD miner REMOVED BAD LINK FROM NEWBIE ASSHAT
I think thats the only available miner for mining PHI2 with AMD cards for now.


Thanks dev, I've been looking for this  Cheesy

- ANN - PAYMENT MADE FOR NEW EXCHANGE (https://maplechange.com)

I have made the payment for the listing on MapleChange. Smiley I would say it should be up and live within the next day or so. The guy there is really cool and we've had a few good conversations. POLY will have its second exchange very soon!

I don't know how to mine as I am not very techy but wouldn't mind putting my marketing skills to use if this project ever needs any. I liked the Greek name of the project as I am Greek and it means valuable. I hope this coin truly becomes of real value to people who own it and wouldn't mind doing a video and a blog review maybe in exchange for owning a small bag. I like community coins as it really brings me back to the good old days.


I would love to have some assistance in the marketing side. If you have a Discord account, please jump into the discord and get in contact with me s we can discuss things. IF not then I suppose PMs here will work, just will be a lot slower as I'm in the middle of a BUNCH of stuff usually, and don't always have time to come here to check messages. But I'm always on Discord. Let's chat!

- ANN - Polytimos (POLY) - to be listed shortly on MapleChange (link) canadian crypto exchange.


I have taken it upon myself to get in contact with the team running the exchange, and worked out a deal to get POLY listed, which I plan on paying the listing fee shortly.

Anyone interested in donation towards this listing would be appreciated, but as I said I'm planning to pay this from my own pocket regardless... But here is a donation address for it just in case anyone would like to help out with the .1 BTC that I talked them into for the listing on their new exchange.

listing donation address - 1C5wNuirKBToiF5EXCrmAoBXq5wQZZN6Rs

I will post again once the listing takes place.


------


- ANN -  POLYSHIELD service's stakepool portion is nearly fully complete now.

We ran into a bunch of things we didn't expect as far as the manipulation of low level transactions that are involved in the adding and removal of coins from a stakepool in the way we are going to make ours work.

We plan to launch the stakepool first in beta on the completely custom platform we have built from scratch. Then we will finish up the MasterNode host/share portion and release that. We will then integrate the portions we like with our discord bots, etc... We are really excited about this platform and can't wait to let everyone use it.


------


- ANN - Polytimos (POLY) to potentially be used in a new crypto gaming platform

There is also potential for POLY to be a currency in a new gaming / gambling crypto platform that is in development by a partner team. We will post more information on this as developments come about. But we're planning that as well.

------

Thank you! - I will be back to post again once the listing fee is paid and listing is confirmed. Much appreciated POLY community!



------

Our 'very precious' coin is gonna be just that. I highly suggest taking advantage of the ridiculously low prices on the markets right now and scooping some up even just 'for good measure' and future value increase potential.

Considering our team and a few others that have been in the space for a very long time, are backing the project, it seems reasonable to me that the project will be a long-term one, and should continue on and continue being developed more services and such for a considerable amount of time. Smiley


------

Oh yea, one more thing, cryptopool.party is undergoing a bunch of improvements over the coming days, everything will be dramatically improved in terms of connections, and overall service. Come back and mine with us to get yourself some more POLY while it still flies under the radar!

my wallet is out of sync, No active nodes.

Anyone have a list of active nodes I can add?

seed1.polytimos.net
seed2.polytimos.net
seed3.polytimos.net


should get you started, I will compile a larger list of seed nodes once I get a couple more set up.

I had added those and 4 5 and 6 but that did not work.  That was a back when I posted.  Now today I opened the wallet and it is syncing.  Was the network down at any time?

No, there was never any downtime on the network, everything has been very stable. There was only 1 issue a while back when some of my infrastructure got attacked, but that was a while ago, and I have since fixed all the core nodes that I host and setup a couple more.


Also, wanted to make a little announcement here for the community...
