What is special about the above block is that the mining target hash is: 0f0f0f0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
which is the minimum diff, even though the actual diff at the time was around 4, with nBits of 2003fe27

this prevents mining wars between notaries. a lot of infrastructure needed to be in place for this to work, most especially height specific list of notaries. We still need to verify ratification of a new list of notaries, which is one of the last remaining items now that round robin difficulty is verified.



This also means all of James his work is coming into place. People think this man is only a ico scammer, but they are really gonna cry the hell out of it when everything clicks together and comes online. Quotes like:

"I missed the goddamn ICO"

"Never thought he would make it"

"I take my words back, he is no scammer"

will cross this topic.

Think twice: https://ico.komodoplatform.com

There remains the risk that James will disappear and everyone investing will be crying. Is there even anyone who could take over if JL gets hit by a bus? I seriously doubt it. There is enormous risk having a solo anon dev.

If as the trolls say, that I am nothing special, then it seems anybody could take over the codebase. Maybe in a day or so.

Of course, if it is true that I have some special talents, then it is a good thing that funds are being raised for to cover such an unlikely scenario. ALL of the source is open source as I develop it. To my mind this is far less of a risk than any project which isnt open source regardless of how many devs they have.

Also, I am sure that competent C coders like tromp could pick up my codebase without much trouble. I am writing code to existing bitcoin protocol specification for the most part.

I have no plans of disappearing and am VERY careful whenever there are any buses. Believe it or not, I actually dont get out much.



"Believe it or not, I actually dont get out much." More proof of superior coding ability would also include the lack of a suntan... Cheesy

Hello, is the Snapshot usable with zeitcoind ? (The Commandline Version)
I tried it, but after 1 Day it seems to be stuck at 500 Blocks

Hmm,
Should be , check back in ~24 hours , and I will have an updated ZEIT snapshot to today's date.
If that updated snapshot fails, you could use the updated bootstrap instead.
(How much ram is in your system?)

 Cool

FYI:
ZEIT Blockchain Snapshot Updated to 2016-9-04

ZEIT SNAPSHOT


 Cool



Would you be willing to add BitBay (BAY) to the list?

343  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official BitBay Thread |Smart Contracts Wallet UPDATE|Decentralized Marketplace on: October 25, 2016, 01:43:12 PM
So for the blockchain boost file...

I'd like to finish a tutorial video on it to accompany the next update on the client. I'm guessing it will have a new peer.dat file for better synchronicity.

So I need to ask again, after a noob installs the client and wants to use the blockchain boost file to speed up the sync process...
What would the instructions be?
Will it be as easy as the user unzipping the bootstrap file (being the bitbaydata folder)  and replacing the whole folder with the old bitbaydata folder in their existing BitBay directory?

Not sure how frequently have we been updating it? If it's a bootstrap they need to load it in a special way. If it's just exact copy of blockchain files the only need to paste it in the bitbaydata directory

Is it possible to have a copy of the blockchain files held at mega or some filehosting place until we can afford our own dedicated server? or is the file just too huge?

Well there was cryptochainer.com, but the owner is MIA. Such a shame why people put forth an effort to create something for crypto and then just vanish with no explanation.

But yeah I agree, as demand grows for it, I'm sure we'll get something set up to provide the quickest solution.


I've requested these guys add it:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1378653.msg14024451#msg14024451

They offer both Blockchain Snapshot and Bootstrap service.

In my opinion very interesting times are coming in altcoin trading with introduction of ZCash. I expect some of my favourite altcoins (including SYS) to drop down, so we can accumulate some cheap coins for future times.

So, explain why Zcash is so awesome and how it differs from every other "anon" alt out there? Do you think using SNARKS makes it foolproof and unbreakable? Why do you think SYS will drop because of a new ALT that has no real innovative technology? What do you think about them rewarding the "investors" up front when the miners get nothing during that period? Why no Windows wallet on release?

Just a couple things that bug me...

The main difference, as I understand it, is in advanced cryptography and heavily encrypted data. Secondly, zk-SNARKs prove ownership without providing details and nullifiers prevent double spends. Thirdly, Transactions are protected and observers can only see transactions themselves but not the value contained, where the inputs came from, or where they are going. Finally, I see professional team working not the first year for their product. So, there are a lot of reasons to think that ZCash can get high volume on the first weeks/month. Remember, when Monero was rising so fast, other altcoins were going down. We will see. I may be wrong.  

It will be speculative unless there are places that can use it for anonymous payments Smiley

Yep, the bottom line is the "holy grail" for sure. Doesn't matter what you have if no one wants it. Keeping an eye on Zcash but not impressed just yet...

lol from 1 buyer only 4 btc its fake only wen 4.048 BTC it rise its good and not only 4 btc  Wink
every coin is pump dump only price rise slow I hope it will this thime  Wink


Ya know what? You need to develop a positive attitude. You obviously don't understand how much your posts influence readers who may or may not post anything in reply. Lets get with the program, OK? Of course, if you are against CLOAK recovering, then there is nothing to be done is there?

So, are we still thinking "Enigma" or not? The name is in use. See below:

new anonymous coin coming

Zcash transactions are untraceable because it uses encryption called zk-SNARK developed by the startup’s team. The transaction metadata within the network is encrypted, and zk-SNARKs are utilized to stop double spends.

Yea, so? There's a lot of "anonymous" coins, some work, some don't. Zcash has already been questioned...

pump and dump over

Stop spamming with your nonsense!!!


i was just talking truth you did not see bittrex chart?

this is not truth what you talking you have no clue about what you talking bro. Stop call something with words you dont understand.




here a little bit more about words you using without to know what it is:

definition of pump & dump
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_and_dump


and something about market Volatility
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatility_(finance)


Hey cuteflower, if you want to see a real pump and dump life go and watch NLG - Gulden - on Bittrex!!! Of course you can also check out POT, PINK, BURST and others on Poloniex. If we reach that stage you can complain about pumps and dumps. Everything else is just, well, a burp....

NLG is NOT a pump and dump coin, it is recovering nicely from a large selloff. Lets concern ourselves with CLOAK here shall we?

To sum it up, BitBay's peg must be classified as a trust based peg, and has chosen the safer version -a soft peg. The rest is micro economics -supply and demand. The revolutionary concept is that it is decentralized! Every other peg is centralized, i.e., controlled and/or dependent on one person or group of persons. If he/they fail, the peg fails!

For me, a peg becomes the all encompassing reason a given instrument exists, meaning, it becomes so important, if the given peg fails, all confidence in the underlying instrument drains away fast. And then whatever news/updates/current development going on at that time becomes very secondary, to re-instating the peg. And even if its achieved, that confidence takes a while to return, if ever.

Interested to see how this pans out.  

That's exactly why the solution needs to be decentralized. BitUSD relies on the success of BitShares, NuBits on custodians, Tether on backers

Nobody who is serious about finance should vest too much in those

It must be decentralized and that's what we are making. Bitbay won't require 3rd party intervention, just miner votes. I just wish more of crypto knew what is about to happen here. I think there are alot of silent eyes on this thread.
There are indeed. I wonder if you would start promoting it better via bounties for marketing, campaigns and stuff like that. I feel there's a need of some advertising for this coin. This is what you need, some fuel  Wink


Yes we need to find a way to create some demand before the peg. We need also to get on polo.

First the volume, then polo, then the peg.

 So many junk coins out there that provide nothing new all zombies sitting in the top 100 and some much higher a lot residing on polo too from times when polo needed every bit of volume.

Trouble is BAY needs whale interest. Whales are on larger exchanges. Bittrex is not enough these days. I mean look at the junk of polo. Some of those coins are total and utter garbage. Some have no development in months and the wallets barely work.

I mean if we can even find a way to boost volume on bittex and get attention of polo and show them the work and dedication behind this project it would be impossible for them not to add us.

I still think a second ICO would have been a great thing months back when ICO was all the rage after eth.  Would have at the very least attracted a lot of attention and discussion about BAY and some funds.

 

Well hopefully this next update will really spark some interest.

I'm just about to rap up with creating some tutorial videos for the client.
In the process I had to create a new account.
Got lucky on the generated address, lol


A good omen if I ever saw one!  Cheesy

We think about the name of POSA3.

This name was choosen by old dev team and our solution to sent anon transactions does not depend from PoS. So proof of stake anonymous is not a good name for that tech.

So we are searching a new name. any suggestions?

My suggestion already in past was "ENIGMA" and this is still my favorite one.

so share you thoughts about  Wink

I like it, lots of history...

sys really getting some huge price down i guess much better to keep tracking the downfall placing good entry at this moment i think bounce back is really getting near we will see this before the end of this month, good luck

oh jesus really? yes try to save yourself 50sats each for a good entry point.  Huh This thinking makes me cringe and grind my teeth.


Buy now FFS and support the market. This is one of the best teams in crypto, show your support by expanding your position when the markets are quiet. Your gains will be 10-100x depending on how long you hold. SYS to $1-$5 in 36 months if not greater.

Good thing your basing your decision on moves of $0.0003185 in nature.

Get real or get going.

wait, wait. Don't buy now...I will expand my 3M+ position just to spite you.


Gotta love it! Those who have no clue about how the market works are doomed to failure. This is one of my favorite projects, I can count them all on one hand, and, I am expanding my 1M+ position!  Cheesy
