Thanks for this nice in-depth summarizing update of the project. Lots of interesting things in there.  Happy Birthday Woodcoin! |

Hi guys, I went through the forum posts and I like this project. I made the soil source code Homestead ready with all the benefit. Just for me to learn. If you are interest in my work let me know. https://github.com/martymcfly2015/go-soilI'm happy to build binarys for you to test. Just let me know. I accept donations soil 0xc7a8ac69835d74a7bd039ece1fc71f7cd9ea64f4 Thanks Good job, finally there is some progress! But doesn't it make more sense to wait until the ETH hard fork which takes place in some days and implement the changes of that? Also, implementing Exponentially Subjective Scoring as suggested by Vitalik in order to prevent attacks upon low-hashrate ETH forks might be a very well thing to implement, like the Jumbucks developer does: Exponentially Subjective Scoring & Entering the final phases for LaunchSo here's something I alluded to in a previous post. I wanted to take a look at eliminating the possibility of a long range re-org attack on the chain as this has been observed in other Ethereum forks. Ultimately the best security for proof of work is having "sufficient" hash rate such that such an attack reaches the point of "not being feasible." The first idea I had for this was setting a limit on re-org depth, say 1 day. This solution on the surface seemed simple.. a little too simple so I sent Vitalik an email to see if he had any thoughts. Here is Vitalik's reply: The problem with limiting reorg depth to 1 day is that there's an attack vector where someone does a 51% attack that some nodes will see as being 1 day - 1 second and some nodes will see as being 1 day + 1 second, leading to a permanent split. One approach that could work is what I call "exponentially subjective scoring", which is defined as follows:
* Suppose that you are on a chain with score S1 (score = total difficulty). Suppose that there appears a new longer chain.
* Compute the "common ancestor" of the two chains; say that this ancestor has a score of S_a.
* Switch to the new chain only if (S2 - S_a) / (S1 - S_a) > 1.0001 ** (number of seconds between when S1 was received and when S2 was received)
The intention here is that you have a scoring mechanism which prevents long reorgs, as a reorg from one day ago would be penalized by a factor of 5650, but at the same time is friendly to timing discrepancies between nodes as if two nodes saw some block even one minute away then the chains would need to be almost exactly the same length for nodes to disagree as to the correct head of the chain.
I'd actually be quite excited to see this kind of mechanism tried out in a chain. Exponentially Subjective Scoring is also further mentioned in this article that Vitalik wrote November 2014 - https://blog.ethereum.org/2014/11/25/proof-stake-learned-love-weak-subjectivity/I'm pleased to say that I have coded this up and it works great. Here are some log lines which demonstrate this. ESS is basically another check which decides whether or not a re-org should take place. |

Amp needs a wallet which would mean the Rchain blockchain is up and running. How it going Dev's?
Currently, AMPs are running on the OMNI blockchain, meaning you can store them in any Bitcoin address you are having access to via the private key and later access them through an OMNI wallet. |

still cheap from polo and more interesting to keep buying more and more, just wait for the funding to be finished and lets see hope profitable this project will come, keep it moving dev we are waiting and holding for the big news to come.
I think big recent news is the partnership with the Silicon Valley based NFX Guild accelerator. The program will have slots exclusively reserved for projects that build on top of the Synereo network. Not even Ethereum has experienced such appreciation yet: https://blog.synereo.com/2016/09/30/silicon-valleys-nfx-guild-partners-with-synereo-to-accelerate-dapp-dev-teams/ |

Great interview, Ohad - thank you! It very well explains even for non-coders what Tau is about. Also, I think your suggestion makes a lot of sense to pay miners in Agoras directly, instead by inflation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWD6Ep4Cb2s |

I was away on business for the last month, can anyone fill me in on what's happened in the last 4 weeks? I would really appreciate it.
P.s. Fucking wicked that it's on bittrex and trading @2899 sat. That's almost 2x from ICO! Was there some good news that caused this. Fill me in guys.
You missed nothing, some fud from the professionals followed by dumps from the weakhands and now the pump can get started up to around 9-10k, to really loosen the grip most people have on their jewels. Once they start selling the price will come back down around 5k and build a new floor there while the whales buy all the coins for the semi strong holders, once that's done we'll get the real massive pump but by then the pumpers will have made sure we sold our coins to them so they control the whole market. Its pretty much the same on every coin with solid fundamentals. Haha, hilarious analysis! |

What is the planned date for founding the foundation?

Ohad, how are things going along in the project? I understand there are some fighting, but how are things moving along?
things moving good, i'm very close to begin coding some of the new logic, and i see extremely innovative methods offered in contemporary literature which will make tau even more useful (eg the "MSOL transfer theorem" which implies program/property synthesis, or expressibility of infinite terms), i also try to see if these new tools can enhance or improve the network's protocol (namely the nomic implementation). also some non-r&d activities and advancements eg probably today an interview of mine that was taken a month ago will be published. that's in short Great to hear that! Very excited! |

Besides Potcoin, Sativacoin seems to be one of the most active other industry related coins.
The 0.3 BTC volume has been reached in the last 24 hours alone.

Have you thought about applying at http://www.gtwy.co/ ? An incubator for Cannabis related startups. |

Pretty exciting Hasn't it yet started or already finished? In which timezone it will be? Written 9 p.m and my time shows 10 p.m already Yes you were just a bit too late, but would be great to have you join in next week at the same time. The Synereo Community Hangout is every Wednesday at 2pm EST or 11am PST and takes about an hour. |

oh thats great nice tutorial very helpful thanks as well gonna look forward for more innovation coming from this project good luck Why does the account linking happen with the public instead of the private key? How it works now, anyone can use everyones cards. |

Looking forward to the first movie coming out in December!

I find the separation in team a bit sad but all in all think that it is a healthy consequence given the different perspectives at play.
I have most trust in Ohad building one of the most revolutionary decentralized networks and while finding the recent debate interesting, I will also try to be up-to-date with the alternative approach by stoopkid and HMC.
From the scientific perspective it surely is a nice A/B testing scenario.

do we have any official jewels logo? We need one before this becoming very big. I'm personally a big fan of the fa-diamond as a design starting point, but we'll be discussing this more soon and possibly holding a contest for logo design fa-diamond: http://fontawesome.io/icon/diamond/I think a Jewels logo contest would be great! Always nice to let the creativity of the community strive. |

Following this thread.
Although I dislike the centralized nature behind Ripple, I think the recent developments are interesting and their decentralized exchange project is something worth checking out.
