Is there a writeup on how to use the Naming Service?
On the Naming Service tab click on register in order to grab a name that you like. Select the account that will register the name (owner) and enter value.  Value can be text, URL (starting with http://) or HTML code. If you already own a name you can update the value anytime you like. Web server loads the value of the registered name.If the value it's a URL, redirects to this URL, if it's text, displays the text, if it's HTML code, loads it on the browser. You can see examples here. |

Where can i find more information about forging with quora?
Is there a profit calc or something?
thanks boba
I'd like to know about the mechanics / incentives structures of the Qora POS. Any documentation about it?
A Proof-of-Stake algorithm that is different from anything that is described here https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Proof_of_Stake. The algorithm will allow accounts to start generating blocks after only 10 confirmations. Each account will also know at exactly which point they will generate the next block. That is a little little  Is there not more information? Below are quoted all that I have found from the dev about POS Review from rlh :
Forging
First, let me go ahead and say that forging is something that I've never looked into deeply. I understand the very high-level nature of it and I very much understand the big differences between traditional "1.0" coins and these new PoS "2.0" coins. My notes on forging will, therefore, be very basic sense I know so little about the nuts-and-bolts. Regardless, here are my observations.
The code is significantly organized in a different manner. At first glance, I think Nxt and Qora us a completely different approach to come up with similar results. Again, Qora is more succinct than Nxt. I'll have to take a while longer to dig into this but since I can't seem to figure out how to build and debug java code through eclipse (Tongue yeah, pretty basic stuff, I know...) I can't run the code and step through this portion to clarify what's going on. All I can verify is that Nxt vs. Qora looks completely different. Also, Qora makes use of the global "Generating Balance" to determine the block Target. From my scan of the Nxt code, no such value is used. I think there is a bit more randomness to Nxt than their might be of Qora, but I won't stand by that. Qora basically looks at the time since the last block, the forgers personal balance and the total balance of forging accounts. It then uses a fairly straight forward process to test if a block has been forged.
I haven't been able to figure out what Nxt does. This isn't because of poor Nxt coding. It's because I don't have the time to look into it. If a Nxt guru is around, please comment.
Also a short review from a core dev of NXT Qora is used on the Forging Simulation Tool created for the Consensus research. |

Thanks for all, Qora team! Very good work!!!! Now I have started the new wallet and I am missing other amounts than Qora under "Accounts". In the old wallet there have been ALL assets... Is this no more available or did I something wrong? You mean favorites, favorites is stored only on the client and that's why you are not seeing them when you upgrade the wallet to a new version. Assets exists as it was. |

Hello
how turn on forging? I see message that "Forging disabled"
thanks
Unlock your wallet. Double click on the locker icon at the bottom, enter your wallet password and forging will be enabled. |

Exchanges have been informed about the new wallet release so they might upgrading their wallets.

The major upgrade within release v0.20 is Automated Transaction which provides Turing complete smart contracts on Qora.AT will be enabled at block 99.000 ( less than 1.000 blocks).As you may notice, wallet contains tabs dedicated for AT, tab AT that lists all the deployed AT's and gives also the ability to deploy AT, AT transactions and ACCT. The first use case of AT that will be used is Atomic cross chain transfer between Qora and Burst through the ACCT tab.  A step by step tutorial will be published the next days on how to perform ACCT. Also, messaging service will be enabled at the same block height. The next steps from the AT team are the below which, of course, will be integrated on Qora. I have begun work on designing a new AT that will allow for discovery of "offers" for ACCTs (which will be the main way that decentralised coin trading can occur using AT).
I will start working on mixer AT which will provide a "layer of anonymity" after the ACCT takes place between BURST and QORA.

If it's storing IPs, then it's a decentralized DNS. It may be simple, but sometimes simple solutions have the biggest impacts.
Also, regarding hosting on the blockchain, I would highly recommend against this. What is to prevent me from writing a simple page that calls the local API, gets the seed and then posts it to my server?
You do not want to give anyone the right to host web content on end users machines. You could come up with your own pseudo-web environment that supports minimal html but I would block all scripting.
Also, congrats on an amazing release. I'm probably not going to be aroun much anymore, but I do try to catch up on the latest news every couple of weeks. I'll download the new client tonight and give it a test drive.
👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks rlh, you've done a lot of things for Qora and you are always welcomed to our team! |

Are you storing the entire website on the blockchain? I had this idea before to use data aliases (names in your case) to store websites and do a RPC lookup to download the website and show it in the browser... or are you just redirecting based on an ip defined inside the alias (name)?
Looks like its just a simple URL redirect... which is a very simple task. Have you thought about actually decentralizing the information? There is little use to storing central IPs or lookups.. not really decentralized IMO. I prefer to store the data encrypted or via p2p file storage and serve it up upon request.
Web server loads the value of the registered name.If the value it's a URL, redirects to this URL, if it's text, displays the text, if it's HTML code, loads it on the browser.See the detailed explanation from agran below. |

I am too much eager to see Automated Transaction and Atomic Cross Chain Transfer. I know people just like pump and dump coins. They just want to earn money. But Qora is the future of cyrpto currency. And it is really important for cyrpto world. I love you all qora developers. I believe in your way. follow you always.
And this is for you  I dont know what to say this is incredible!!! This will be the best release so far. I always believed in qora, to me it was the best from the start. ACCT is really a HUGE thing for all cryptos and i believe all people will notice and see its great significance. Also, with smart contracts on AT, etherium is no longer a necessity. The future is already here, and it's called qora! holy shit, This is looking pretty good.  There's also another huge thing implemented in this release A web server to explore decentralized websites hosted on block chain Credits to agran  Just open your wallet and visit http://127.0.0.1:9083/ |

Seems I have neglected this topic for a while so let me just update and let it be known that the first ACCT (Atomic Cross-Chain Transfer) between Burst and Qora blockchains is scheduled for this coming week and I have begun work on designing a new AT that will allow for discovery of "offers" for ACCTs (which will be the main way that decentralised coin trading can occur using AT).

I don't know if I am allowed to say this, but Qora has revealed his identity  I confirm this.Few days ago I have found out that qora revealed his identity and immediately asked him if this was made intentionally or something else happened and he replied that it was made intentionally and we can now figure out who is he. Check out Qora's github. |

I have been in talks with Ian since the early days of BTS. I have reviewed his work and consider it superior to Ethereum. I would likely take an approach similar to his and adopt his code if it gains any traction and is proven. Performance is my primary consideration as well as simplicity.
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,15886.msg205857.html#msg205857  So, BitShares might adapt AT too! Very interesting - thanks for sharing His, "superior to Ethereum", comment is what caught my interest. I just wanted to relay that to everyone into Qora/Burst. Indeed. Not only will it make Ethereum completely irrelevant before it even gets off the ground, but also beats Supernet and Blocknet by not needing a redundant coin in the middle. Qora and Burst will do all of that and more. I've already bought some while the oblivious people have been selling cheap, but tempted to grab a bit more before that all-important cross chain transfer happens and makes history. Is there an ETA on the cross chain transfer? Without knowing all the details in this case, I'd offer a basic roadmap instead of an ETAs, due to ACCT's importance. However, they still can prove us wrong: If I had all the details, I might very well had done what Ian did.
Unfortunately just as the AT code for Qora was ready to be merged (on April 30th) a bug was found.  So although calling it by the end of April was arguably a "tough ask" it had looked possible (and I'd also hoped that putting out such an ETA might provide a bit of extra incentive). Anyway most importantly the bug has now been squashed and the work to get Qora with AT rolled out the door is underway (I am not going to try and rush that as quality code is far more important than a precise ETA). I won't call the date this time - but I am extremely confident that it will be days rather than weeks, and even if we end up being a week or two late, compared to Ethereum we are extremely punctual. |

I knew that but I did not know that Qora offers a service particular for bloggers. What's about spamming the blockchain? If there are many huge texts the blockchain will blow up extremely. Qora blogging service  Did I miss something? Is the blockchain enhanced to store articles? lets focus on our new blogging service and coming 2.0 release instead of deleted posts Yes, of course.. Blockchain can store data (arbitrary transactions). Efficiency on how the data will be used, generates services like this blogging service. Yes, from now and on Qora offers a blogging service thanks to agran. Each arbitrary transaction has a size limit of 4.000 bytes.Arbitrary transactions generally can bloat the blockchain. This is a concern that we do have in mind (as everyone I guess) and this will be reviewed accordingly. |
