602  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [🚀][ANN][Aurum Project] 💠 Xᴀᴜʀᴜᴍ 💠 ▲ 1 Xaurum ≥ 2,026g 999.9 gold ▲ on: April 06, 2016, 09:19:05 AM
We've travelled east, to Turkey, Istanbul to discuss and arrange two separate matters regarding Xaurum. The first is the gold store, the second is the safe-keeping of the Xaurum gold reserves and the protocol to handle them.

The first matter concerns the gold store. Auresco Institute and Aragorn ltd. will partner for this project and have received Nadir's exclusive representation for the Slovenian market, meaning that we'll be able to provide our customers with the most competitive prices of gold. The gold store will also include a digital store, to sell gold globaly, and will be an important part of Aurum project, as it will donate some of its profits to the Xaurum CommonWealth and contribute to Xaurum's growth. We were very well received by Nadir, they have also shown us many of their different branches and even their manufacturing facility.

 The second matter is the storage of Xaurum gold. Nadir, Turkey's largest private gold refinery, that processes 125 tons of gold per year, currently stores most of Xaurum CommonWealth gold reserves, but this is a temporary solution, because Nadir can't legaly keep their customer's gold for longer periods of time.

In search of a long-term solution, we've met with the representatives of Loomis, an international company that provides efficient cash handling for central banks, large commercial  banks, large retail chains, etc. but also smaller enterprises, to arrange the storage of Xaurum CommonWealth gold reserves, with full insurance. We've come to an agreement, however the contract is not yet signed, as we need to determine the details of the storage protocol first. The main issue to decide is, whether to proceed with a low cost solution, where Loomis would store gold in 1 kg bars, deliver them to Nadir to melt into 1g cards and ship them to us and Auresco ships to the users, or we'll store 1g cards and try to arrange for direct shipment to users. When we decide the best course of action, we'll sign the contract digitally. The added benefit of Loomis storage, will be the possibility to digitally access to the information about stored goods. This means we can make our Auresco account open, so all users can have direct access to directly verify the quantity of Xaurum CommonWealth gold reserves.


Gold industry building, with offices of the Turkish branch of Loomis.

Imagine a decentralized crypto asset backed with gold, where miners cooperate instead of compete, an asset where instead of evolving towards centralization, we're evolving towards decentralization, an asset whose creation preserves and increase value instead of destroying it. This is our goal, and we're working hard to achieve it.

I like Canna a lot but I don't quite grasp why I need a Canna cryptocoin Smiley

Because growers and dispensaries like my own in San Diego, CA and partners in many states will be backing it with a special breed of Blue Dream and Bubba OG hybrid, created solely to celebrate the acceptance of cannabis related cryptocurrencies in exchange for the top shelf product in dispensaries in Washington, Colorado, Arizona, and California (to start, as the interest increases, more states will be accepting CCs for products).

As it continues to become more and more legal this means your coin value will skyrocket beyond initial projections within the next two years to be equivalent to (and possibly exceeding) an initial backing of 1/4 oz of top shelf flowers per coin for all CC's related to cannabis in every state it has been decriminalized.  Currently plans include SPL, CANN and CCN. Smiley

Thanks. Those are exciting plans!

I like the Cannacoin.  Very good concept.

608  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MSK]MaskNetwork testnet launched. Testers needed. on: April 06, 2016, 09:07:32 AM
Small update :

Smart contracts - this was a feature that was scheduled to be launched in May. We think smart contracts are a handy tool especially if they run inside an "operating system" like MaskNetwork, but many others think they are a big deal and will change everything so we have speed up the smart contracts development and now we have a clear date for the POC 1, on April 5.  

Smart contracts are written using MaskNetwork Script Language (MSL) which is a turing complete low level language. Smart contracts will run on the mainchain inside MVM (MaskNetwork Virtual Machine) and because they run on top of an "operating system", they have some really nice fetures compared to Ethereum. A MaskNetwork smart contract can send messages, post tweets, post adertising messages, launch trades or binary options, transfer assets of market pegged assets  and many other cool things, impossible over Ethereum or Lisk

 They can be used to build 100% autonomus decentralized corporations that self promote, trade and interact.

Mining Algorithm - As you already know 50% of new coins will be distributed by interest and half to miners. We have studied many other mining algorithms and we decided to use a new algorithm derived from X11. We call it Polymorphic X34 (PX34). Unlike X11 that uses 11 hash functions, PX34 uses 34 hash functions and the order of hashing functions change after each block (depending on the last block hash).

Basically the mining algorithm changes after each block, making it 100% ASIC resistant because the most efficient way to run an algorithm that is always changing is to use a computer microprocessor.  

How can we mine this coin, is there any detailed guide?

All wallets will start to mine using available addresses. We don't have yet a step by step guide. Because the algorithm is new and it changes after each block, CPU mining is the only form of mining that will be available at launch time.

In MaskNetwork mining is a bit different than other cryptocoins because you don't need only hashing power but coins also. Even if it's a POW algorithm the difficulty changes depending on the mining address balance. Those are the basic mining rules :

- One address can mine only once every 1000 blocks (the network has 1 block / minute)

- After mining a block you can't spend funds from that address for 1000 blocks.

- Mining difficulty changes depending on the address balance. An address holding 1000 MSK will mine on a difficulty 10 times lower than an address holding 100 MSK.

Without stakeholders or a lot of coins, the biggest mining operation in China will be useless even if they have tons of hashing power. Over MaskNetwork, mining power is a balance between hashing power and the stake you hold.


@masknetwork

Is there an explanation how the decentralized system works.

You dont have any server running or do you?

Thanks

how? the ico funds are in escrow... nobody can touch them until lisk mainnet launch...

Isn't it obvious ?

If Lisk launches on April 11, some people will pump n dump it on April 12 to buy Waves & receive their 1st day bonus of 20%from Waves:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1387944.0

By delaying Lisk launch to end of April, Waves has no chance at eating from Lisk Marketcap.

I'm pretty sure Waves won't raise more than $1M because of this.

Nice guess, but you forgot, that the ICO is still open in May ;-)

Indeed, but for many people it's all about the bonus, which they will miss.

This conspiracy is pure nonsense....who gives a fuck about those who need to pull out their investment in Lisk to participate in waves? who is so stupid to put all his BTC on 1 altcoin???
The big whales are still out there in the Waves and they are hungry...

Nowadays, in the time of supre hype bubble, everyone thinks every shitcoin will raise. I would not touch waves, just for free.

Where's the DGB news? JARED!? Your DGB is TANKING at 100 sat because everyone's wondering WTF is up with DGB? No news? No updates? We want something to believe in... Poloniex chat is saying the worst things about DGB!

I used to pump up DGB to everyone so much, but now I have no reason to! Give us something man... or be prepared to face sub 50 DGB soon!

611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Augur - a decentralized prediction market platform on: April 05, 2016, 07:36:15 PM
The team has seen this thread and the feedback is being considered, it's just much easier for us to funnel feedback via select channels so please give us time to evaluate the feedback as development takes time.

What upsets me the most is the ambivalence regarding the design of the Augur team.

Are you realy not capable to see the website is total rubbish? Realy?

Sentences like: bla bla feedback considered bla bla, bla bla easier for us, bla bla take time are evasive behaviour.

I am telling you like it is, this is not good enough for the budget you have (or did you already blew it?). It looks like it cost 50 bucks and my mother in law made it (color sceme), and she has never worked on a computer before!

2 Questions for the Augur team:
Do you honestly think this site, as it is now, is one of the best multi million dollar gambling/ prediction sites on the internet? Yes or No (Please anwer this for the record, your community who invested millions in this project deserve to know don't you think?)

And what would you grade your site: from 1 (low score) to 10 (high score). This is not about what other people think but what YOU think.


For the record, this design would not have passed the first year at any art academy.

Please be honest to yourselves and the people that invested in your project.
People that are saying it looks great (in this thread there are zero) are blowing smoke up your ...

I realy hope for everyones sake this gets fixed or this project will be DOA.


To other Augur investors, please state your opinion positive or negative.
https://augur.net/markets




ps. @augurteam: could you reply a bit faster, 2 days..., not only your website is lagging ... (What's up with these enormous loading dots anyway?)

... I apologize for not staying more on top of this thread...
...

its decentralised. thats the future. keep calm and enjoy

A lagging site is the future? I don't think so!
Joey also states it should load under 2 sec.
But thanks for the effort!


Joey said the beta will start end of december and the main network will go live in Q1 2016.

Joey has no plan. I would wonder when the project will launch with him.

Any word on whether this will still be coming to bitcoin?

the main developer said in a video, they need one year more. i dont have the link, but its in one of the ethereum sessions. it was in february.

Code:
Validate your ICO Passphrase!
Important! Every ICO participant should do it!

Guys I don't understand it. Why should I risk security issues again. I saved the file. Is there really the possibility that its wrong? Kidding me?
With bitcoin you try to make paperwallets offline to be sure, that there is no hacking possibility and I should repeatedly risk it here?

just follow rules like

It's working all the late noobs are showing up now that's good.  Grin

they delayed the start because there are no real dapps running. for what do you need a shipyard, when you have no ships?

Eth is a smart contracts platform and they had several projects already developing Dapp before they even startet.

When they start now, it will crash down the hill like Crypti







I'm not phased by a delay. I waited on eth for a year. So this is nothing to cry about.

Yeah I waited until March and got 5x more. it was 1 year and 8 months. Waiting counts . Also Lisk will be A LONG waiting phase.

I've contacted the support regarding validation issue and they got back to me nearly instantly!

they stopped counting the btc yesterday and had time to write the email to get the rest. Tomorrow they are gone then  Grin

cant stil not understand, why they did not send this emails AFTER the end of the ICO, immediately. Whats going on in their heads  Huh

So when is the new start? Are the bounties also affected by that or can we get btc instead.

How many Usefull Dapps do you expect from the start on? Are the crypti Dapps working on Lisk?

Are there some demo Dapps?

There are serious problems running Dapps on Lisk.

I guess we will not see the start soon. Is there a timeline?

How many devs are working right now for Lisk?

Sorry Johny, but from the first post I see that you don't know much about Lisk. So please don't spread FUD. Smiley

- Start is end of April, 11th April was only an estimation until now. We communicated since the beginning that we will have a better picture on the 4th.
- Bounties will be distributed 1-2 weeks after launch, as previously mentioned.
- Useful dapps from the start, a handful.
- Crypti dapps: There were no Crypti dapps besides my Twitter-clone.
- Lisk dapps:

Working:
https://github.com/MaxKK/guestbookDapp
https://github.com/MaxKK/blockDataDapp

WIP:
https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk-tokens-dapp

I also know of community members that they have working dapps, but I can't disclose them.

- There are no critical issues with Lisk. The majority of the issues on GitHub are "enhancements" (feature-requests) and "questions".

There are 2 security related issues, fixed soon. And also 11 bugs, many of them very easy to solve, already solved or not critical.


A pre-launch development roadmap will be posted this week. As mentioned in the blog post. Currently it's still Oliver and I. Plus 100 beta testers, many good devs and helping hands.


Smiley

So thank you for clearing up that there were NO Dapps running on crypti, besides twitter-clone (pre-alpha status?)

Is the old and new management going to get some Dapps running on Lisk as a proof of concept?



I am just afraid for the altcoin community, which has been screwed so often and Lisk is a plattform for Dapps, with no working artefacts???

Thanks for proving wrong, that you are NOT screwing up the community by hot air.
619  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: April 05, 2016, 02:04:57 PM
You better pray that the reason for delay is not because of this:

https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk/issues

If it is, y'all just been lied to in the worst possible way and we haven't even got started yet.

Uhmm

There are serious problems running Dapps on Lisk.

April 11th was never set in stone iirc.

They were aiming for that and it was subject to change.
