I also heard the news, so I hope the team to give some clarification.

What news?

Hi,

How long until people that used a Ledger Nano S can claim their Ledger?

What am I doing wrong here? My wallet is taking a very long time to sync, seems stuck around block 3175.

The two versions of zcash, which one is which? For example, what version is the one listed on coinmarketcap? (The two versions I am talking about are the ones that split from each other after the team disagreement.)

Is there currently a decentralized byteball to blackbyte exchange on top of byteball? If not is one planned?
86  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [RNS] Renos - A community Based Cryptocurrency on: May 04, 2017, 02:31:24 PM
Can someone give us a straight answer to this question :

If this coin moves to ETH how will the masternodes work?
Will they be compensated for the massive dump of RENOS when masternodes are not needed anymore

from: https://block-chain-invest.com/exclusive-interview-renos/

What are the technical features of Renos?

Our new codebase will be X11 based off DASH.  It will run many of the same features, encrypted messaging, anonymous transactions. Etc.   We also have a few things in the works that aren’t part of the wallet but will be capable of running based on how many RNS you hold.


Renos is eventually moving to ETH so what will happen to masternodes and the huge dump that will follow then

6. Smart Contract Orientated Chain
One of the main developments we will be pursuing during this time is a move to a Smart Contract orientated chain. Most likely this will be based off of the Ethereum codebase however we will be exploring other options. It gives us the opportunity to build applications and services on the blockchain rather than building external applications that are designed to accept Renos. This is where we estimate that most of our development resources will go as once it has been created it will provide a number of possibilities for us to generate an income which will make development self sustainable.

The web page says nothing at all about moving to ETH.

The paragraph clearly states that they may move to an Ethereum codebase. This implies that they will fork the codebase and turn it into Renos. In no way do they state Renos is meant to be an ETH token of any sort.

On this topic, they may decide to go with the DASH codebase.

My argument holds for BTC and USD. You mean that people will be satisfied that they "lost" money in BTC and USD but are OK in terms of ETH only?

That would make die hard fans of eth and this project is actually another eth implementation so it creates and even bigger paradox Smiley

Well I am against it as it screws every ICO investor that used ETH out of their ETH.

It's not like the round two amounts were to be announced.

They were published for everyone to see.

To modify them after the fact isn't fair.

If AE does that I have literally lost ETH for no good reason.
88  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] QRL - Announcing the Quantum Resistant Ledger on: May 03, 2017, 08:14:07 AM
What is the value proposition? That's it is secure against quantum attacks?

Surely all crypto will eventually be upgraded to be secure against quantum attacks though?

If you believe why QRL will have a lead on other crypto advancing with similar technologies via upgrades/forks, can you please explain it a little like I am 5.

Really interested in this btw.

The resistance against quantum attacks is just one aspect of the value proposition. However, this does have a significant value by itself, which is discussed in our medium  blog. We are also very excited about the unification of this with a Post quantum messaging layer. This will create the foundation for a number of additional use cases by providing a secure end to end encryption that can pass messages, data and digital assets.

Retroactive decryption is also a major issue with the current blockchain design and even a 10% vulnerability due to legacy accounts and transactions can have a substantial impact. We also have a medium post further delving into this rationale. This is not an issue we would have because we designed with long term security from Genesis.

Thank you for your reply Smiley
89  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] æternity blockchain ∞ GET AE TOKEN ∞ [PoS x PoW | Smart Contracts] on: May 03, 2017, 07:58:28 AM
Some basic questions:

1) On github the main developer is 1 and only 1, zack with some few lines of code from the project leader. Projects that have 1 coder and 10 marketing/advisores etc fail IMO. How is this scalable?

2) When someone participated in the first ICO phase he paid 1ETH=30$ for 1000 ae tokens. Now he will pay 1ETH=85$ for 800 ae tokens.

This is not 1000->800 but really 0.03 -> 0.10 difference or put it another way getting 3 times less ae tokens for your money.

Since ae mainnet is not live, this creates a paradox of a coin tripling its market value *before launch* just because another coin used for the ICO increased in price.

For sure this can't be right with economic analysis.



Perhaps, however as you know most people invest and count gains against the big boys, BTC and ETH.

If AE were to change it so the second round got a better ETH deal, I think there would be a big problem with that.

Am I talking my book? Sure, but that is what everyone does.

Honestly I never actually invested that much, but if they turned around and said the second round got a better ETH deal, I would ask for a refund.

Why? Because people invested in round one already knowing the details for round two, in fact everyone did, that was already on the ICO page, what the ETH price for round two is going to be.

So it would be a major f**k you to the investors to go back on their word.

will change to the ETH blockchain?

Around the time of the second ICO.

I will like to know why the team is coming out for more funding, I read recently that the team secured Series A funding from Angel investors what have they done with the money or they just want to suck money from the ICO hype

Because of the ICO mania going on nowadays.

Is there a way to find out how many commercial users are paying for this service?
92  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [RNS] Renos - A community Based Cryptocurrency on: May 01, 2017, 05:10:35 PM

Please dev because you did not answer all the questions?
When will Masternode be active and how many are now?
What is the ROI of a masternode?
Help for it, etc ...

Please answer

q1: If this coin moves to ETH how will the masternodes work?
q2: how can this coin sustain itself in the long term?
q3: are the masternodes live at this time?

This might be a question for Tony, but feel free to answer if you know.

If I wanted to create my own private anon currency on Byteball similar to GBB, for example, dts-coins and I wanted to ensure every current Byteball holder got some free dts-coins.

Could I code a smart contract that via my own genesis block on the Byteball DAG, automatically credited every existing Byteball holder with dts-coins?

What are the potential usecases of aeternity?

I think it's a direct competitor to Ethereum.

So all of Ethereum's use cases would be the correct answer.
99  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments on: April 29, 2017, 02:19:04 AM
I've seen some posts requesting the establishment of a dev fund, just for the record, there is a community fund, used to pay for bounties and other expanses (not main devs salaries as far as I know), check out this post for more information https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608859.msg18115774#msg18115774. Maybe a link to this post should be added to the first post.

How is the fund, funded?

Donations in BTC, bytes and blackbytes plus bytes and blackbytes from each round's distribution plus unclaimed blackbytes. There's a spreadsheet with all the ins and outs, you can find the link in the post.

Sweet. My initial post was to get a fund with a little more weight going for long term sustainability.

My position was that I think the community would be ok if Tony put 1% of the supply into the fund purely for non-Tony dev purposes. (As Tony himself has the original 1% reward for building Byteball, which is fair)

As Byteballs value increases this fund would last a long time and help Tony run a top tier team.

I just don't see a dev fund based off of donations being able to pay for top tier contractors over the next 10 years.

Whenever I invest in a coin I try to imagine its staying power, can this coin compete, can it last?

The dev fund is always an important consideration to me.
