Ignoring that you have a major defect in your decaying design and not resolving issue  of MASSIVE Creation of "worthless" tokens will lead to another fork and version of the ION wallet. A smart move for the Team would be to listen to professional advice being generated from outside the ionomy cult. Please don't try to force a faulty designed wallet on the ionomy ecosystem!

That's your opinion I totally respect that I just don't agree. Based on what we both know about the project to say it's a design fault is wrong, if anything the differences represent a misalignment of objectives.  

We don't need to agree but that's cool life sometimes needs things to play out before positions can change.

Now is the time to halt the DEFECTs in ION wallet before it bloats the healthy ION Blockchain !!!

You see it as a defect I see it as the start of something special

Demand to see ION White Paper that describes this NEW "token" wallet and it's functionality/use in ION ecosystem. More details about a well designed ION proposal (draft ionomy Ecosystem White Paper) at:
https://ion.community/topic/2787/ion-improvement-proposal-wildonion-node-responsibility
Wise Direction of Discussion => smart ION Node Wallets running on the ION blockchain using ATOM or HEAT token as ION Node asset !!!

So what your saying is you demand to see this stuff and want me to demand it for you..... not going to happen plus anyway I'm too busy today setting myself up on a funky Chinese exchange that as just appeared  https://www.bkex.com/#/


lol asking for ION White Paper has shattered your ionomy Vision.. it just shows how much you are really concerned in ionomy ecosystem...

I am not going to invite you into either channels as the project is just about to enter an important phase of deployment meaning any discussions now about direction would be a resource drain.  Smiley

It's a done deal I don't think you understand that these updates have been months in the making, it's going to happen and the community support the changes

Your options

No.1 Walk away If you do PM me with what you want to sell how much you want to sell it for then with escrow I can try to sell it for you.
No.2 Walk away sell you stuff on the open market but still PM me on the stuff you can't immediately sell i.e. ATOMs
No.3 Stay the course getting ready to say I told you so..... which I 100% believe you won't
No.4 Embrace the innovation look forwards not back
 
My offer to help with No.1 & 2 is valid until the platform roll-out plan is published.

I have option to continue to promote an IONOMY option that leads the ionomy community down an innovate path of GROWTH. I still believe that Huey and the team does not have the documentation or support from the ION wallet owners for their decaying plan... I wonder how many of the ION community and ionomy cult will not change to new "token" wallet Huh I wouldn't be an encouraging Ambassador for ION if I walked away!

When is the scheduled date of HARD FORK for ION "token" wallet to start the show?


Wildly coding such a big defective innovation does not justify throwing it in a perfectly operating ION Ver. 3 wallet...



The proposal is a very simple concept that deals with introduction of a "Premium Game Token" into the ionomy ecosystem using dynamically created smart ION nodes activated using the current ionomy assets. There is no creation of massive "worthless" tokens and transactions to be maintained the life of the ION chain.

ION Masternodes + ION Staking Wallets + Gamernodes (smart ION Node) =Good ionomy INNOVATION on ION Blockchain

Why doesn't your proposed ecosystem not use it's own Blockchain and bloat it with all the token transactions?

Where is the ION Improvement White Paper Ver. 3.0 to back your decaying plan Huh This would answer your technical question on how to implement an ATOM token asset on the ION blockchain

I look forward to the day that you endorse smart ION Node Wallets running on the secondary ION blockchain using ATOM, XDM or HEAT token as ION Node asset !!!





This staking ION wallet is AWESOME for running 24/7 on Window 7 desktop server since beginning of the year!

The Key to this ION plan is the ION Improved 3.0 White Paper that doesn't exist!

I've been running mine on Windows 10 and like you it's been rock solid the stakes I've ever missed have been down to me not the wallet.

Seriously though it's nothing compared to what's around the corner  Smiley

I wonder if the ION wallet community wants to change from reliable tested wallet to generation of massive "worthless" token wallet that bloats the ION blockchain ...

How much daily payout do you receive by holding a token created by the new wallet vs staking asset in current ION wallet? Is the goal of the new wallet to teach the owner of the new digital asset to hold the resource to gain value Huh Which of the ION Core Team's IIPs are rolled into the ION "token" wallet?

Here is question I asked very professionally...
Okay got a coffee your proposal has my full attention. At a top it level it's seems like a token system that sits on top of the ion blockchain.

No.1 I think this is inefficient adding an additional layer of infrastructure when there can be integration onto a single blockchain. If the tech can support there are lot of inherent benefits running multiple tokens within a single blockchain eco system.
No.2 I think to implement would add another 6 to 12 months development and mean scraping 1 year+ dev work on a solution which has yet to launch.... this for me is a show stopper.
No.3 As an investor surely it has to be better running a single blockchain. 1 wallet always easier to manage than 2
No.4 Not enough detail on implementation. What is the process of setting up a token Huh? how would the link to ion work if any. How would you manage a token from an Ionomy, game developer, investor perspective and what are the benefits over the soon to launch single chain solution (implementation benefits).

Overall I'm struggling to see any benefit.

The proposal is a very simple concept that deals with introduction of a "Premium Game Token" into the ionomy ecosystem using dynamically created smart ION nodes activated using the current ionomy assets. There is no creation of massive "worthless" tokens and transactions to be maintained the life of the ION chain.

That’s a dangerous thing, because I think it demonstrates that this is just a community of yes-men. I don’t fully know why that is, though I have some ideas. I’d love to know your opinions. I think it’s partially that a lot of the people who are invested are inexperienced in investment full stop, or are naive. Some of the larger investors, like Korvas, for example, are clearly not the smartest people and to be totally, brutally honest, probably don’t have the critical thinking skills to come up with viable alternatives. It’s not their fault, I get that, but it means that there’s very little actual challenge to the teams plans.
Don't confuse humility or ignorance with stupidity....

What if the community agree with the devs direction, why question something they agree with.

I can't see how your proposal adds any value in fact all I see is negatives but that's probably because as you say I lack the intellect to understand it's significance. Grin
  

The well written ION proposal supports the ION core team's by utilizing all of their IIPs except IIP_0002 (XDM Token Implementation) and viewed at:
https://ion.community/topic/2787/ion-improvement-proposal-wildonion-node-responsibility

This IIP changes the secondary ION network as follows:

Improve ION network functionality with addition of new Gamernodes being used to process large number of premium game token assets.

The IIP introduces the system requirements and processing imposed on ION Smart Nodes in support of the secondary ION network of the ION blockchain with the current proposed ionomy ecosystem assets.

The IIP will require the implementation with usage of "Smart Contracts" being processed on the ION blockchain. The limit on the number of premium game token assets being implemented on the ION blockchain should be determined by number of active ION Nodes in ION Core network.

The addition of the "Smart Contracts" functionality will increase the value of ION. Having a variety of value assets are extremely useful in any mature ionomy ecosystem.

"Add Smart Contract functionality to the ION blockchain" - introduce the capacity to process contracts on the secondary network using ION wallets.

ionomy Ecosystem Effects


ionomy.com assets and gaming assets can be transacted and accounted for on the blockchain

Smart Contracts creation functionality facilitates new use cases for ION

ION Nodes facilitates network scaling by offloading contract and token management from the core ION blockchain

secondary network based on the number of ionomy assets the wallet owns to register as active Gamernode

Smart Nodes that operate from all ION staking wallets

ION masternode that dynamical activates and controls smart ION nodes

Fees for smart contract transactions performed by the masternodes and gamernodes can be distributed to ION node addresses and/or token addresses.


@Korvas128 Of which of these points do you or the ionomy cult see the proposal as a negative? This is a path that encourages ION members to "HOLD" current ionomy assets instead of investing in "worthless" tokens...

Asking me for feedback, are you serious ?

As far as I'm aware XDM is the first it's kind and you've written if off already  Grin

XDM = SOV + Token generation = innovation with utility... nice  Grin

I'm still not clear how the creation of massive number of "worthless" tokens and transactions are innovation for the ION blockchain Huh

I see it as burden being added on to a well established ionomy ecosystem. If XDM tokens are so great, why does it not run from it's own blockchain for the decaying life of their project Huh

Massive... I don't think so  Smiley Tiny would be a better word to use.





What does the big "CREATE" button do?
CREATE MASSIVE amount of "worthless" tokens  Roll Eyes

ION Masternodes + ION Staking Wallets + Gamernodes (smart ION Node) =Good ionomy INNOVATION on ION Blockchain
[/size]

Yep if you or I clicked the big create token button our token would be like many ERC20 tokens.... worthless. If 1,10,100 or 1,000 game developers created a token to integrate into a game that's a different story.....

I'm still missing the reason/motivation for the ionomy community to create these "worthless" tokens. What value/use do these tokens have in the ionomy ecosystem? How does the token gain any value when purchasing with XDM asset that was "air dropped" for FREE Huh


It's not free The bulk of the airdrop will be to ION and ATOM holders who bought those assets , I know people that have been stocking up on ION and ATOMS in anticipation. The only free element is a planned promotion to air drop some XDM to non ION/ATOM holders, it's an incentive for them to checkout Ionomy 3.0.

What's the reasoning behind your rational ? If you think XDM is worthless share your thoughts on why it's worthless. Also if you truly think it will be valueless why don't you do create tokens at 1 XDM an asset. Name them 'Sharkie' 'Wild'.....

Your tokens will be worthless as you inject no value into them but at least you'll be doing everyone a favour by burning up your XDM supply so adding some deflationary pressure  Smiley



Again you have not answered without commenting on how "worthless" the current proposed tokens are. I'm still searching for valid reasons to go buy XDM so I can then buy "worthless" token that is not being currently utilized in ionomy ecosystem (Ionomy.com 3.0 Token Exchange) Huh

Why don't I just spend the funds on buying IONs from a real exchange and skip two deflationary transaction fees???

ionomy Email News:

"Version 3 offers options for masternode hosting, including multi-asset support, as well as onsite and remote hosting options."

The Ionomy LTD exchange will add more tokens on the ION blockchain including Dark Matter (XDM), ATOMs, Offroad Heat (HEAT), and other gaming tokens. Going forward, the community will vote to select which other assets will be added to the Ionomy LTD exchange.

I'm guessing the "Create" button is going away and the ION & ionomy COMMUNITIES will vote on ionomy assets!

What your referring too is the start of the v3.0 inonomy platform announcements
...
My guess is it's one thing creating a token it's another thing getting that token listed on the platform.

Shouldn't it be version Ionomy LTD 4.0 Website? I thought the security upgrade was 3.0 done at the beginning of this year Huh



Good memory.....Nope all part of the new platform. The security updates were done in anticipation of this new platform  Smiley

You got to be pulling my leg... They called the January website "security" upgrade 3.0 Huh

I'd buy that they have been "testing" the site upgrade for over 9 months!!! and give it a 3.1 designation...

or 4.0 for NEW Ionomy PWR-GRD Token EXCHANGE - Ionomy LTD's effort to expand business

I have been involved as a Masternode investor since day 1.  The increase in value to the ION coin has come from growth as a reliable wallet that produces sizable daily payout. I have never had any faith in the "gaming" side of this project. My push to gain value in the coin by adding useful smart ION Node functionality.

In the ION wallet community, I don't think he has the support there and injecting more assets and new token wallet into ionomy ecosystem does not increase value of ION

Your fucking moron, if ION is a SCAM they must be worst fucking SCAM artists in the history of crypto..... Why is the scam still running after 2.5 years, ...

Comments from member of Wild's Depot Research & Development team. As always, the member would like to remain aniomous due to fear of being banned by the illegal ionomy Kangaroo Court.

"I just watched the last google hangout the team had (from the end of August - they mentioned that they’d have another in 2 weeks, but typically that didn’t seem to happen). Adam is a moderately skilled orator, though I’d love to see him pushed on what he meant on a couple of things. It’s mostly fluff that’s only really meant for this weird semi-internal very brought in investor group that is made up of the main contributors to the discord, but it’s interesting to watch as an outsider. He mentions that they have more than enough funding - I’d love to know more about that. If you’re going to be transparent and engaged, why not post some accounts? Let’s see a breakdown of how they did in revenue over the last couple of years. Let’s show some true transparency. Let’s let the people who are most invested feel like you trust and value them enough to be that open with them. He mentioned the sponsorship deals and that they cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why not break down the benefits that that brought to the brand - did it have a measurable effect on sign up and usage rates, for example? Otherwise, what makes that a valuable thing to do in the future, beyond the fact that you might think it looks cool? Having tried that, what other channels might you try and why? He also alluded to the idea that they feel they’ve proven that they can create products that are fun and appealing to everyone. That’s a very sweeping claim when your products have demonstrated such a limited reach so far. I’d argue that they’ve proven they can create games that are perhaps semi-functional at best and an ecosystem that keeps their existing customers moderately entertained. Nothing more.

What do you think?

Comments from Huey made in Wild's Depot Chat Forum:

"Also all forks are voluntary
The core release updates which signaled over of votes casted by nodes was over 90% so i assume 90% of those holders will be updating
However that is up to them. And you"

Discussion from members of Wild's Depot Research & Development team who wish to remain animus for fear of being banned by the illegal ionomy Kangaroo Court:

"Firstly, I think it’s true that Huey & the team does have 90% of the votes. The reason for that is that really, the community of Ion holders is only made up of those who are part of or follow the discord - there isn’t really any other place they communicate or congregate to my knowledge. I’ve sat on the discord chat since it begun, though I’ve only ever lurked, and no one has ever really questioned a single thing Adam or the team has suggested. There might very rarely be a bit of grumbling about the speed at which things happen, but there’s never, or extremely rarely, any actual debate or discussion about the wider plan or direction.

That’s a dangerous thing, because I think it demonstrates that this is just a community of yes-men. I don’t fully know why that is, though I have some ideas. I’d love to know your opinions. I think it’s partially that a lot of the people who are invested are inexperienced in investment full stop, or are naive. Some of the larger investors, like Korvas, for example, are clearly not the smartest people and to be totally, brutally honest, probably don’t have the critical thinking skills to come up with viable alternatives. It’s not their fault, I get that, but it means that there’s very little actual challenge to the teams plans.

MrCoins doesn’t appear to be very active any more, though he’s probably invested in a number of different projects and failure in one in reality probably won’t affect him much. The fact that he was such a strong advocate for this project at all perhaps undermines this, but I feel like he probably has enough experience of alts and investing in general to want to challenge if he desired.

This is very much a top down organisation. It’s a crypto ‘company’ being run mostly as if it’s a traditional company; there’s a lot of tension there between the idea that crypto stands for freedom, consensus, transparency and collaborative work, but the team don’t seem to want to demonstrate much of that. If you’re invested in Ion, largely you seem to have to put up with whatever the team do. And regardless, I don’t think the community has enough skill to come up with an alternative even if it wanted to, and I don’t think it does.

I’ve rambled a bit here, but boiled down it’s three points:
 
1) The Ion community isn’t big enough or engaged enough to possess the collaborative practical skill sets to challenge the plans of the team.

2) The small number of people who are part of the Ion community generally aren’t smart enough to want to challenge the teams direction, and are hostile to those that are because in classic altcoin cult fashion, that’s deemed FUD.

3) The way the team have chosen to run the project and lack of communication doesn’t seem to encourage the cohort of investors to contribute ideas or engage in debate beyond very superficial things.

If we do a bit of root cause, we could hypothesis that perhaps the reason why there isn’t a more active, critical cohort invested is because it was an obviously crap idea in the first place, so it never attracted the sort of investors that might challenge plans to begin with."

"Also all forks are voluntary
The core release updates which signaled over of votes casted by nodes was over 90% so i assume 90% of those holders will be updating
However that is up to them. And you"

This ionomy product is not hitting the streets till FALL... Has the ionomy cult changed and learn to advertise new functionally before it is finished? The ION community is always interested in HYPING a good product...
