Will there be an update to the wallet to make it more lightweight at some point? I can't really keep it open anymore to stake as it really bogs down my computer, and I by no means have a weak system. I would really like to continue staking on my own computer but until the wallet is less of a resource hog I will not be able to.

I have to agree with this.  I'm not staking at the moment but I might have considered continuing to stake if the wallet wasn't quite such a resource hog!  (Unfortunately, I do have a weak system!  Cry)

Although I do realise that the web wallet promises staking which will presumably be extremely lightweight!

A good short term solution is to just open the wallet once every few days (or even just once a week), and let it sync up and stake for a couple of hours. This works well as you have built a good network stake weight and should stake pretty much as soon as you open the wallet Wink

In the long term yes, we will look at getting the CPU resource usage down in a future update.

Syncing like this takes forever, so it's a bit painful. To put it into perspective, if I leave the wallet closed for two weeks, it will take anywhere from 7 to 9 hours to sync up once I open it.

Hello,

Wanted to ask when Peerbet decides to add Clamcoin, which almost every other Multi-Cryptocurrency Betting Site offers.

IMHO its long needed..

Chuck



I'll second this vote, though I question how effective it will be. JD is the prominent CLAM betting site, and I think it might be better to use a different coin that has little competition, rather than going up against the behemoth.


I do understand that but with that argument no other site would have Clam in it except just-dice..even FortuneJack has it.

Its not about being better than the competition always, its also good to ride on the same wave with them

Greetings, Chuck


You're comparing apples to oranges. FortuneJack is a casino. PeerBet is primarily a dice site (like JD). This puts FortuneJack in a COMPLETELY different category.

As I said earlier, by using an apk from the place not from the google play store, you run several risks.

http://tools.kali.org/reverse-engineering/apktool
Using apktool, a person could modify an apk file to do something malicious such as key log your phone or steal wallets.

Most of clash of clans gems service need google+ account to fill the gems on games.
Would you share your password to them so they can inject gems to your ID?

I can do it if you have android or at least willing to transfer over to google (You can have both iOS and Google play connected on one account).
I can do .03BTC for the 500 pack and I can also do some farming on your clash of clans account.

Also I would like to use ajareselde as escrow

did you mean 500 gems? no i dont need farming service. i just want to buy coc gems.
Get a apk with unlimited gems from me I will personally do it for you tell me if you want.
what? unlimited?
I guess our ID will be banned after do this because supercell server know something wrong with our ID Smiley
It was called hacked version you have to only replace some files with my files and you got the gems but I don't know about any bans or whatever sorry for that it is this way than its better you purchase some from real money.

In this statement, the author clearly avoids when I provide that it could steal for example your wallet if you have use a mobile bitcoin wallet.

If this is really real, you could provide a screenshot with a completely maxed out base, 1,000,000+ gems and a base design that had your walls arranged in a pattern such as the letter BTC

Even if it's real, it doesn't mean it won't come with a virus. People release real, working software all the time that has virii embedded.

Evaluating your original post, it looks pretty good but definitely isn't "professional," as professional writers know how to use a hyphen, Smiley.

That said, your pricing is about what I'd expect for this quality, so you get a +1 for that.

If you want to team up with me (an editor/proofreader) for any of your more important projects/clients, feel free to let me know!

A little off-topic from the normal "how the site works" here, but did the guy that got in trouble over someone using a stolen credit card to send his order ever get it resolved? And have there been any other reports since then?

As far as I know, Purse paid all the legal fees for him and got him out of the mess. Haven't heard anything similar since then.

That's great to hear. It's something I was worried about from the beginning, and when it ended up happening, it just further showed how risky the transactions can be.

It's something that stretches far past just Purse, too, in that the majority of services crypto-related can be attacked in the same manner. So it's good to hear Purse is willing to help out those that get caught in it using their services!

Hey Hyper team! Smiley I just downloaded the newest wallet and it is already saying that the checkpoint is too old. Did I do something wrong? Thanks and keep up the great work. I love that Hyper is a gaming currency. Real world application is always good.

Thanks for the kind words!

No there is nothing at all wrong - it is just something built into the code because HYPER is almost a year old. I will get it fixed with the next wallet update. The network and your wallet are 100% fine!

So. How does staking with HYPER work?

-snip-

Those are super trippy logos you have there. I LOVE it. hahaha

hi sir
how much minimum balance to POS ?
and how long balance stay in wallet to POS ?

Here is a quick explanation of HYPER staking.

There is no minimum balance and coins will begin staking after they have been in your wallet for over 24 hours and as long as your wallet is unlocked (this is much faster than many other coins). You will ALWAYS get your 5% per month. If you have more coins (say 10 000 or more) your wallet will stake more often, as larger amounts have a higher network weight and have a higher chance of staking.

But you will always get your 5% per month in the end.

You do not need to keep your wallet open the whole time. You can for example open your wallet 3 days after sending coins to your wallet, and you should start staking very fast, as 3 days is much longer than 24 hours. The longer past 24 hours they have been in the wallet the more chance you have of staking. If you have a small amount (under 5000) it may take longer than 24 hours to start staking but you wil always get your 5% monthly in the end.

Hope that clears it up!


Does HYPER do the earning cap on staking, though? Most coins will take the monthly % and cap out at that, such that:

If you staked 100 coins after 30d, you'd get 5 coins
If you staked 100 coins after 80d, you'd get 5 coins
If you staked 100 coins after 10 years, you'd get 5 coins

Does HYPER not do this?

it is 5% compounded monthly interest so it will  be

100 coins after 30 days you will have 105
105 coins after 30 days you will have 110.25
110.25 after 30 days you will have 115.76

every month you get 5 percent interest add it get another 5 percent so on so forth

Thank you for not reading the question.

It appears that admin summarily cancelled the freerolls sometime today, even though they had a minimum number of players signed up.

Not sure how many would have showed up to play, but you gotta start somewhere, right?


OP, what is your status?

Yeah, I'm not sure why they have a minimum anyways; it's not helping. Finally got enough to sign up to one of the 1m tournaments to run (I think 17 signed up). It starts, and only four players were actually there. The rest were just sitting out. Note: this is four TOTAL -- myself and one other on my table, and two on the other table.

So even the 10+ requirement does no good. It just causes people to sign up and not play, with the same result as just allowing it to start with less players.

ranlo - check out this thread - "Faster blocks vs bigger blocks" @ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=673415.msg7626485#msg7626485 if you haven't already.  In my OP there is a link to yet another discussion on this topic.

I still think moving to 5 minutes would be a safe improvement, but the counter argument seems to be that making a faster block interval is not the most efficient way to achieve quick transaction confidence.  By 'efficient' I mean from a human-resource point of view, that any fork takes lots of person-hours in code changes, review, and political discussion.  Although perhaps, as you have suggested, if it was done as part of the attempt to increase the networks base capacity, it would be easier to pull off.

I think I remember Gavin mentioning that the easiest time to pull off such a change would be at a block reward having, which is coming up in just about a year.  The timing could line up nicely!

Reading through this now, and it's great to see I'm not the only one that thinks this would be a good solution, Smiley.

I suggest you to go for Gold Investment. That's the best and wise thing to do at the moment. Gold prices are also fluctuating and it's quiet low as it was before 5 years and for long run it is the best as after 10 to 15 years you can imagine where the market would be.

That's about as risky as Bitcoin, with the main difference being that one is physical and the other isn't. And there's no guarantee gold will go up, either.

I want to also toss out that you can tell the likes are new. In fact, the chart on FB itself shows they were made today, Smiley. I think that should be proof enough.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/VISFIRM/1483449295260487?sk=likes

For confirmation.

Thanks for this and I also can give 25-50 likes free to any trusted person for vouching for me.



i see thank you.


OP, from what countries the likes will come from?

Worldwide but can also be geo-targetted ( specific countries ) if you want.

I'd love it if you can push some my way... and I can give play-by-plays on the results over time as well (i.e. sticking rate and such).

what you mean by play-by-play, i cannot understand that, sorry Sad , sticking rate ??

Tell me more detailed please Smiley

In case you want to test free 50 likes just msg me or post here Smiley .

Play-by-play = every week or two (if you want) I'd update with how many were still there. "Sticking rate" refers to someone liking a page and leaving it up, rather than unliking shortly after.
4799  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Question Re: Block Size and Time on: May 06, 2015, 10:12:09 AM
I feel hesitate to decrease the block interval. Having a slightly lower block interval (e.g 2.5 min in LTC) is not particularly helpful. 2.5min is still way too long for buying newspaper on the street, and we all know why it couldn't be 2.5sec. On the other hand, for online shopping, 10min or 2.5min makes no difference because it will always take at least several hours for merchants to deliver.

Valid point as well. I've felt for a while now like BTC is going to basically be gold -- a store of value that you don't really use day to day. Sure, you can sell it to get what you want, but people won't accept gold at places like Walmart.

An altcoin would then take its place for day-to-day transactions (much like cash).
4800  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Question Re: Block Size and Time on: May 06, 2015, 10:00:25 AM


As per my original question, which nobody has really been able to explain (and has nothing to do with any of your replies since you were caught up trying to avoid reading my statement and just making false inferences) is how this is different than halving the block time/rewards and leaving the maximum block size at 1/2 whatever they're going for (10Mb instead of 20), which would ALSO benefit in giving faster transactions while at the same time fixing the original problem.



It is you now ignoring my reply:
I think it also depends on the block size. I suppose most of those 1min blocks are empty. As the block size approaches the network bandwidth limit, the adverse effect of short block interval will be more obvious.

Those alt-coins with 1 min blocks work fine because most of their blocks are empty (correct me if it's not). If most blocks are full and it's close to the network bandwidth limit, many forks could happen during the propagation and the network will not converge.

And you are actually proposing 2 protocol changes at once: a) shorter block interval and b) more tx/s. Either one of them is already too controversial.

Ah, I saw your post before, but LTC doesn't have a orphan rate, and it's 5m with a lot of users/power backing it, isn't it?

Bringing up controversial changes does make sense, though... it seems like the community really hates change.
