I think there's only 17 days to go for the masternodes.
Where we can see how many nodes are live now?
Either an online list or within the wallet?
Thank you
Go XBY!

OK. That's the code. Thank you

But is there an online place running this script?
I would like to check how many nodes are running.
Investors need to validate that all the hype about the nodes is confirmed by actually nodes being created.
The dev said he want a good quantity of nodes, like 256.
That's a huge quantity of nodes and it's easy to see that a good proportion of the XtraBYtes cheerleaders are short term profit hop'ers.

I'm not attacking, I'm not trolling. Legit concerns only.
Let's see the seriousness of this community.
Thanks


I didn't think you were trolling. Here the problem at the moment, the project is like a screaming new born baby at the moment. The tech might of been in the developers mind for a while but the project is only weeks old. So there is a lot of ducks not lined up and we are just starting to get websites, social media etc in place. Honestly with nodes the absolute priority is to get them set up as its not like nodes on other coins where they can be set up anytime. These need to be done in next 2 weeks as far as I understand. The developer has periodically posted the list of nodes and also given the script for people to look themselves, for a busy guy I think he's done enough on that area for now. I personally don't think we will get 256 nodes in such a short time, that's just the ideal, no one is claiming we have that many, the developer has actually only shown we have about 10. With the interest shown by people to set them up that's not hard to believe.

I think the seriousness of the community will come once we shake off weak small time trader hands and bigger whales join the project. I'm not holding my breath for that until we get on a better exchange personally. But so far pretty amazing community is coming up, the guy who made the Litecoin logo is working with us. In one week we have wallets being made, banners being made, websites, social media...all set up by community with zero bounties, just investor community helping out. So really so far so good.

Thank you for your reply and opinion. I totally understand that there's a huge amount of things to do atm for XtraBytes dev team and the community that is engaging with this project, And that's why my question to know how many nodes are actives now.  

I have a hard time to believe the number of masternodes to be only around 10.  It simply doesn't fit with a 5X increase in price and makes me think it's most probably currently overbought. I'm just looking for that important input (nb of masternodes) to make a wise investment decision.
thank you for your time

I must say that I voted for 1M but I agree now by reading this that it's too much coins required to run a node
I would like to change my vote for a number between 200k and 350k coins.

Also, it would be the best if we could get the opinions of the dev and ccr too.


i also voted for 1mill, but am having 2nd thoughts Cheesy

i like the notion that they could be a serious investment, but unfortunately without any idea of what the market value might be like in 3 months, it's hard to usefully project a value.

i've changed my mind to 350k - 400k:)

this gives room for short term growth in price where they might still be under 1btc, and gives a lot of scope for coins in nodes vs circulation.

should the coin gain serious value, then those static nodes might become very serious, and plausibly the amount necessary might need some reconsideration at some point.


----
"a change is good as a holiday"

I'm not too sure if the amount necessary can be changed in the future... That's why this community voting is more important than we thought, imho.
As others already said, it's not about immediate gain and profit, but long term viability.
1M for a static node is already about 1btc worth... As development will continue with XBY, the value of the coin will increase over time, as well as the value of btc probably.

Since the dev and ccr would like to have a considerable amount of statics (300), then can you imagine what would be the price for 1 static if it's set at 1million coins required?
Having a lower amount of coins required for a static will offer an opportunity for newcomers to participate in this project too, and not just an early coins hoarders cash-grab thingy.
It will also make it easier to reach the goal of having 300 static nodes.

opinions of Borzalom and CCRevolution are required here.
And results of the voting poll should give only an indicator, not giving a 100% weight on the decision.

Sharing this post by seedit122 this from the Slack. This is my vote:

Quote
Ok honestly here is the deal, we need to decide how much for a masternode/static right? If we reach DASH's price point the coin will be around 80 to 85 cents. A million coins will run $800,000, which means only millionaires can run nodes. That's insane. If you want a coin based on community it should be more accessible. It shouldnt be about status it should be about community involvement, and besides people can run multiple nodes anyway so why limit the amount by so much? A stronger network, the better, so more nodes = more strength, plus you can put on the website the fact that we are running hundreds of nodes. The less of something, the better as well - lower node req means higher future price. If Borzalom wants 300 nodes thats even more reason to lower node req. What happens if someone buys and doesnt set up a node? Loses their coins? Too risky. Lower node req down to 10k - 100k range. Pull the poll, say that it was a mistake due to technicalities or something and we have lowered the node req.


Well said! +100 to you sir seedit!

You can't just start changing the rules for running a staticnode because it would become to expensive for people that want to run one later. It is still cheap to buy 1000000 coins, for the people that want to invest later it will be more expensive when the value rises, that is how things work in the real world.
The thing is that early investors will get the most benefits when a project succeed and it must be that way because they are the ones taking most risks from the start. To be able to get enough coins to run a masternode i sold a part of my Wetrust tokens, a token that a lot of people think that will do very well on the long run. If the amount of XBY needed to run a static node would become much lower then i would feel cheated because i could of made more profit trading Wetrust tokens, 500000 coins i have no problem with but lower i would say no.

Me and other investors were buying while people were spreading FUD and i can say that before the release of the first video by CCRevolution i was very carefull but after hearing him speak i was convinced that they will do their best to bring this to a good end, so i invested a lot more. You can't please everyone with your choices but i can say that the XBY community will become much stronger even when 1M coins is needed to run a staticnode.

Thank you for your opinion Lopchi and you are not alone.

We are not trying to cheat anyone but it was a decision that we thought best to leave for the community to decide and the community is on your side at this point. Are you with us in the Slack? If not and if you would like to join us, you can send me a PM and I will invite you. We are having lots of discussion about this subject.

There are many pros and cons that we must discuss because nobody thought the price would rise so fast and we would like to see more STaTiC nodes (200 to 300 was the initial goal... with considerations at max 5 satoshis for the price... but the price shot up and now we have a Catch 22 - Not enough nodes and too high of prices with unproven/unseen code to hold people back from investing heavily and we are not going to change the amount after the STaTiCs start up. So, a small delay to debate this and Sunday we will start one way or the other)

Also, please remember that this is experimental and there may be changes along the way that need to be done for the betterment and long term stability of XtraBYtes (this has been on the ANN from day 1). This is the number 1 priority for all investors... to make sure the company grows and thrives. We are not here for a fast P&D... We are building a Community Corporation with intentions to be here for a very long time and firing up a BRAND NEW BLOCKCHAIN with a BRAND NEW CONSENSUS mechanism, only to have to fork later would not be very wise.

STaTiCs were $12 just 9 days ago and they shot up to about $1500 at one point... and even now they are sitting at $945.

So, this must be debated to do the right thing for all aspects...

Please join us.

Thank you!



I understand that we need enough static nodes to create stability of Xtrabytes that is why i said that i don't have a problem with 500000 for a node. And at the current price that would be around $550 i believe. You said in the video that you rather have longterm investors to run the static nodes so it would be better to have a choice between 1000000, 750000 and 500000 because going lower especially 250000 will let too many weak hands running nodes and dump when they need money or as soon as they have a couple of bucks profit. Whatever the outcome is of this poll i'll live with it as this is a community project. And yes i joined slack today, by the way is it possible to make a video how to set up static node as i want to know what needs to happen when i do certain things .

It looks like its going to be me to give the hard q's and a's. Again.

This is why the decision of the requirement of masternodes should not be solely left up to the community. We need Borzalom's (and other developers) technical input. You are only thinking about money. It might be "cheap" to you to buy one million coins, but to others its quite a bit. You are an early early investor, there is no reason for you to feel "cheated" if the number is lower, especially if you are concerned about the success of the project and the long term stability of the platform. Period. I dont really care what you did to get XBY, sorry to be blunt, that is your business.

I heard Borzalom wants 300 nodes set up. With 1 million requirement thats way too high and too risky to implement. There is no reason to handicap the network because of some short sighted "early investors" wanting the one million simply because of the status associated with it. If you are a true early investor, you will not care about the requirement anyway, what you care about is the stability of the platform and how well it runs. You understand that things change especially on something early as this. There was no agreement of 1 million nodes at any time.

The range for nodes should be within 10k - 200k IMO. People can run multiple masternodes, so really, what's stopping us from creating a super stable network with many nodes? You say if the number is lower people with weak hands will drop them....I say bullshit, people dont keep coins because of node requirements, they keep the coins because they are confident in the project's ability to succeed.

Technical stability always comes first. Period. We want the best network possible. Limiting nodes to 1 million, or even half a million is absurd.

I must say that I voted for 1M but I agree now by reading this that it's too much coins required to run a node
I would like to change my vote for a number between 200k and 350k coins.

Also, it would be the best if we could get the opinions of the dev and ccr too.

what do you think guys  ??
Conclusion ??

I'm new here but I would go for 1 million coins for a static node..  ccr want them to be kind of elite status. ....  buying 1 millions is not really expensive right now. ..  it means you can get a static for less than 1 btc at the current prices.   250k is beer money and would be a joke if that gets votes imho . And it's better to have only let's say 200 static at 1 million each than a bunch of 250k or 500k of non dedicated static nodes that always change.

but, you are still not providing the simple Slack activation link.
You know it's a simple thing? It makes all this "announcement" really shady, since we can't get into your slack.  is it private?

Actually, there are several people working on finding the Slack link and it is NOT a simple thing... Perhaps you can help, rather than FUD??

Our Slack has been open for a week and now the initial link they gave us is not functioning anymore... Baring manual invitations, we are NOT able to find a GENERAL invite link that works for NON slack members.

Thank you!

Very nice to see some humor and lots of participation in here... Great for some chuckles  Grin

We updated the Slack link on the ANN last night, the other one was the initial temp link from Slack. Now you simply need to go to: https://xtrabytes.slack.com

It will be a busy here for the next few hours, so I will not have much time to reply or participate as normal... We will be announcing some very interesting information later that we are confident you will all appreciate.

Thanks and keep up the great work in all of our communications areas...

#trollpatrol Rocks!!



yeah, that link works only if you already got accepted on this Slack team chan... But if someone new want to join your Slack, you need to provide a Slack invitation link.

Time to make a decision about Yobit if you still have coins on there.

Best of luck.

 Grin

 Huh
please explain (or re-explain)

I guess Yobit have not updated the code yet?
what would be the problem then? and these problems starting at wich block height?

thanks

If Yobit hasn't updated before block 35000 there could be soft fork.

An admin told me in the trollbox that they had updated to 1.3.0.1

I don't have an answered support ticket ... just the the word of an admin.



Everything should be fine.  This whole Yobit thing has been affecting the price of INSANE.  I am keeping about 25k insanes on Yobit for trading.  As long as I don't withdrawal them until I am sure the wallet has been updated, there shouldn't be any issues. 

thanks for the answers guys. Yobit is where I buy my Insane's so that's cool to know  Wink

Mm mm mm mm  this coin looks great
Had to get some now for cheap before the masternodes release. 

Very good job dev team and the Insane community :  you are making noise  Smiley  great viralmarketing campaign.

One question : how many coins required for 1 masternode?
