Greetings Solaris Community,


Another busy week as all hands are on deck to prepare for the closed beta of txbit.io, where we will be giving everyone a glimpse into the exchange and gather feedback that we will be incorporating for the release later this year. We want to underline the importance of community and feedback for the team at txbit. Our aim is to deliver the best experience for our users and we will do everything to listen to you and improve.

Thank you for supporting Solaris !

Hello everyone, we are glad to bring you a fresh information about the Solaris Reward Program, how it will work and some possible rewards estimations.


As some of you may be aware, txbit.io would not be possible if it wasn’t for the Solaris community. Txbit was partially funded by the Solaris team and a substantial amount of man-hours have been invested to make it one of the leading, privacy oriented and trusted exchanges in crypto landscape today.

As a form of gratitude and way to compensate Solaris holders for their continued support of both projects, txbit is implementing a unique feature called “Solaris Reward Program”.





Solaris Reward Program



Txbit will be rewarding 50% of the Net Transaction Fees to all users who sign up and link their XLR holdings with txbit. (Net Transaction Fees are Transaction Fees minus baseline operating costs and expenses, such as server hosting costs, software subscriptions, etc.)

We created a unique system, which supports the network security at it’s core by encouraging people to run masternodes and stake Solaris coins. We hope our system will create a major incentive for users to take XLR off exchanges and keep it safe in their own wallets, because this is what personal cryptocurrency security is all about.

At launch (Q4 2018), we will be giving the full 50% reward to all linked Masternodes on txbit.

After the Staking Monitoring feature is implemented in Q1 2019, the reward will be split as follows:

- 80% Split between all Masternodes

- 20% Split between all Stakers



What kind of rewards

Users will be rewarded a combination of BTC, ETH and XLR directly to their txbit accounts.

Transaction fees are taken from the Base Market currency for all pairings.

At launch, the rewards will be deposited to the txbit accounts on a weekly basis to ensure auditability and accuracy. Once the team is sure that all calculations are correct, the deposits will be automated on a daily basis.
























That’s a great question! One of the fundamental txbit principles is Security. As mentioned already, we created a unique system that does not encourage users to send their funds to a centralized service to receive rewards. An exchange is not a bank and should never be treated as one.

The Solaris Reward Program is a secondary layer of passive income for anyone who runs a Solaris Masternode or Stakes XLR.

Our unique reward system will monitor your Solaris Masternode or Staking Addresses, and pay out the rewards directly to your txbit.io account. This means that you will still be running the Solaris Masternode or Staking XLR just like you have been all this time, but now you have the ability to link your holdings for extra rewards.


Masternodes:

With txbit you will be able to run your Masternode from your local wallet, just like you do right now, and link it to your txbit account using a signed message, receiving both rewards simultaneously. Our service will then monitor the uptime of your Masternode and reward you for the exact uptime. This feature will be available at launch (Q4 2018).

Stakers:

Stakers will be able to link their staking addresses with their txbit account, our unique service will then monitor the staking rewards frequency of those addresses. The rewards are split relative to the amount of staking rewards found by other users who are also linked on txbit exchange. Here is an example to better understand how it will work:

    1.    100 users link their staking address with their txbit account.
    2.    These people find a combined number of 100 blocks in one day. The rewards are split relative to how many blocks each user found.
    3.    The user who finds 1 blocks in that day will get 1% of the staker dedicated rewards.
    4.    The user who finds 10 blocks will receive 10% of the staker dedicated rewards.

More detailed information on how to link your Masternodes or Staking Addresses on txbit will be released closer to exchange launch.

   Users will be able to link their Masternodes when the exchange goes live in Q4 2018.
    Users will be able to link their Staking Address(es) with txbit in Q1 2019.







About txbit.io

Txbit is proudly made and based in the Netherlands. A cryptocurrency exchange built from the ground up to meet today’s demands in security, privacy, reliability and speed. The proprietary trading engine and interface deliver a blazing-fast, world-class user experience catering to traders who enjoy spending some time behind the charts, but also to those who prefer to be in and out quickly.

Today’s cryptocurrency exchange industry is largely split into small, poorly managed and outdated exchanges, and the large, high volume exchanges that are near impossible to be listed on due to high fees and excessive bureaucracy. Txbit aims to fill this gap, providing a modern exchange platform for everyone to use. We are firm believers in growing the cryptocurrency industry without bankrupting legitimate projects in the process.

Solaris & txbit.io weekly update — Sunday 5th of August




Greetings Solaris Community,

The team has been hard at work and we are glad to bring you our first weekly update. During these updates we will mainly cover the progress made on any on-going projects, updates on new initiatives and occasional off-topic conversation.






If you have read July’s update posted earlier this week, then you are well aware that txbit.io is the top priority item for the core team to complete. Last time we spoke about txbit was back on the 25th of June. ( https://medium.com/@solarisXLR/txbit-io-dev-update-03-solaris-rewards-benefits-and-a-look-inside-the-foundation-ac0c02004451) We are extremely glad to report that a tremendous amount of milestones have been achieved since that update.




Complete since last update:

•Order Placing logic has been completed and integrated into the trading engine. Initial testing shows speeds of 50ms (0.05 of a second) to place an order on average.
•Buy and Sell Order Book logic has been completed and integrated into the trading engine.
•Buy and Sell functionality completed and integrated into the trading engine.
•Order Matching logic completed and integrated into the trading engine.
•Market History Integrated into the trading engine.
•Live charts and live statistics (Price/Volume/Change) completed and integrated into the trading engine.
•Balance system (Withdrawals/Deposits) connected with the Trading Engine.

In short, the trading engine is functioning in its basic form, although a lot of work still remains in polishing the experience and hardening all aspects of security.




Next Week:

•Develop the ability to view and close open orders as well as historical order view in the trading engine
•Refine the Withdrawal and Deposit balance views to use the live update pattern, same as live statistics, removing the need to refresh the page to see balance changes
•Working on Landing Page for txbit.io and Community Vote for coin listing page.


Solaris

Last Week:

•Reviewing the Solaris whitepaper. Preparing content to add to v0.2
•As mentioned in the previous update, iOS wallet development has begun

Next Week:

•Continue working on the Solaris whitepaper v0.2
•iOS Wallet: Porting XEVAN to iOS




Thank you for supporting Solaris !

Greetings Solaris community,


It’s hard to believe how fast the time is going when you are keeping busy. August is nearly upon us, so it’s time to do a round-up of the July progress and provide some well needed updates for the project.

First things first. Last week we made a quick survey to gather feedback from the Solaris community regarding any concerns, questions or general comments they have about the project. Majority of the feedback was based around frequency of updates on the progress of various initiatives by the team. We are happy to say that your voice has been heard. We will be providing weekly updates about the various topics and progress on development work. Expect to see a lot more about txbit!




Roadmap Update

One of the big changes we want to highlight this month is our revised roadmap. After some internal meetings with the core team, it was decided to fully concentrate on txbit.io development as it provides a unique proposition for XLR holders. Txbit is shaping up to be an outstanding experience, which we will be detailing in the weekly updates going forward!








iOS wallet

We are glad to announce that development work has started on the Solaris iOS wallet. Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks! As some of you may be aware, the publishing process to the Apple app store can be tedious. In case of extended delays with Apple, we will be looking into options of publishing the App on a third party provider.




New Exchange Listings


Solaris will be listed on two upcoming exchanges, Bitfineon and BlockDX. Follow @solariscoin on Twitter to stay updated on when these exchanges go live!





Solaris listed on GIN platform



Solaris has been listed on GIN masternode platform. ( https://gincoin.io/ ) Looking for an easy way to set-up and run your XLR masternode? Look into GIN!





Solaris listed on MYCE


Lastly, Solaris has been listed on MYCE. ( https://www.myce.world/ ) Enjoy easy Masternode set-up using a Telegram bot and paying for the hosting with XLR!




Thank you for supporting Solaris !

Dear Solaris community,

We are glad to announce that XLR will be listed on BlockNet’s Decentralized Exchange, Block DX. Block DX is currently in Beta, but full release is planned in the coming months!

Thanks to the BlockNet team for listing XLR and we are looking forward to being part of the decentralized revolution!

Dear community,




We are stoked to bring you another progress update on txbit.io. A lot has been achieved since the last developer update. All the major milestones have been shattered and the team is confident to report that work is ahead of schedule.. The infrastructure behind txbit is shaping up to be class leading with ability to support thousands of coins and millions of users without any negative effect on performance, quick integration of new coins or tokens and enterprise-grade security.

In this update we will go deeper into what milestones have been achieved in txbits’ development to date, how Solaris holders will get rewarded for supporting txbit, what we are working on next and show you a real time example of the Deposit and Withdrawal speeds on txbit with XLR.






Back-end Infrastructure



Back-end infrastructure is complete, it has been extensively tested and is running the txbit development environment. Throughout the design and implementation stages, the team always considered these 3 aspects of the system in the following order: Security, Redundancy and Scalability. We are extremely happy on how each of these critical aspects have shaped up, and we are confident that txbit will have class-leading infrastructure designed to withstand the demanding and ever-evolving cryptocurrency landscape.

The internal ledger has also been designed to easily implement new features in future iterations, such as Loan and Margin trading.

Every component of the back-end infrastructure is redundant by design. If any component of the back-end infrastructure suffers from unexpected downtime, there is a back-up service which will automatically initialize to keep all operations running without any effect on the exchange operations.

Deposits and Withdrawals are fully operational. See example videos of the Deposit and Withdrawal speed near the end of this article.




Fee Structure


Fee for Deposit — Free
Fee for Trading — 0.1% trading fee (Maker and Taker)
Fee for Withdrawal — Minimal (Breakdown per coin/token to be provided closer to launch. Will be kept up to date on the txbit website)




How Solaris benefits from txbit


XLR will be a base market along with BTC and ETH.
XLR holders will be able to link their masternodes or stake their coins on the exchange, and receive a 50% net share of the Transaction Fees.
This means that you will still be receiving the Masternode rewards or Staking rewards, as well as the txbit rewards.
Utility demand for XLR as txbit implements listing voting which integrates XLR, airdrops for XLR holders, continued partnership formation and other integrations.



Solaris Reward Structure

As most of you are aware, txbit would not be possible if it wasn’t for the Solaris community. Txbit was partially funded by the Solaris team and a substantial amount of man-hours have been invested to make it one of the leading, privacy oriented and trusted exchanges in crypto landscape today.

As a form of gratitude and way to compensate Solaris holders for their continued support of both projects, txbit will be rewarding 50% of the Net Transaction Fees to all users who sign up and link their holdings on txbit.

Out of the 50% Net Transaction Fees:
- 80% Split between all linked Masternodes
- 20% Split between all Stakers

Users will be rewarded with a combination of BTC, ETH and XLR directly to their txbit accounts. This is because all transaction fees are deducted from the Base Market currency for Maker and Taker.

At launch the rewards will be deposited to the txbit accounts on a weekly basis to ensure auditability and accuracy. Once the team is sure that all calculations are correct, the deposits will be automated on a daily basis.




How will it work?

Great question! First of all, we value security and want to make sure that Solaris holders don’t have to keep their XLR on txbit to receive rewards. This is fundamentally different from our competitors. We don’t just give you another way to gain passive income by either choosing running a masternode, staking or receiving part of the transaction fees on an exchange.


Masternodes:
With txbit you will be able to run your Masternode from your local wallet, just like you do right now, and link it to your txbit account using a signed message, receiving both rewards simultaneously. Our service will then monitor the uptime of your Masternode and reward you for the exact uptime. This feature will be available at v1 launch(Q4 2018).

Stakers:
At launch, users who want to earn share of the Transaction Fees, but don’t have enough to afford a full masternode, will be able to Stake their coins on txbit and receive portion of the Transaction Fees at the same time. For v1 launch(Q4 2018) users will be able to send their XLR to txbit exchange and then lock the amount they want to Stake. This locked amount will also earn the share of the Transaction Fees on the exchange.

Our eventual goal with Stakers is to also give the ability to keep XLR coins on the local staking wallet, while using a service to monitor the uptime and validity of staking amount. This functionality will be introduced in subsequent v2 release(Q1 2019)





What’s next?

With a lot of the base layer work complete, the team has moved on to building a proprietary trading engine with the ability to support millions of transactions every day, even during the under extreme stress conditions. Once the trading engine is complete, the team is going to re-visit the Front-End (Graphical Interface) and prepare it for MVP(Minimal Value Product) release. MVP will be fully operational Deposits, Withdrawals and Trading with Bitcoin based coins.

On this note, we are glad to share that all of our planned work has been completed ahead of schedule, and we expect to launch an MVP to a limited group of people in September. Right around the same time we will go live with a landing page for txbit and introduce community coin voting, where you will pick a new coins to get listed on the exchange for the official launch!

Very soon txbit will be opening up their own social channels and we will be building momentum for the full launch later this year. Stay tuned for more updates!





Deposit and Withdrawal on txbit with XLR

We are glad to show you the speed at which the Deposit and Withdrawals happen on txbit. We are using the live Solaris network to send real XLR.

Please note, the interface is still mostly a placeholder that will be majorly re-worked and polished up before the MVP release. Also, ignore the christmas lights working away on the tickers, it’s just for testing.
