Nice project guys, Do we have some free airdrops?  Grin Grin Grin

Thank you for your support! Smiley Yes, we will have a bounty program, we are working on it right now. Complete rules and conditions will be announced very soon.
I will look forward to your bounty program information, it will be many people who want to join in this impressive project.
Hello there! Have you already prepared rules for bounty campaign? Unfortunately, I haven't found bounty page on Bitcointalk for SophiaTX. I would be grateful to get the link. Thanks a lot.

Unfortunately there will be no bounty. The team responded that they considered it before, but now they changed their mind.

What a pity! Thank you for your answer. Have there any fresh information about AirDrop? Previously one of the manager has written about that.

I totally missed the airdrop, if anyone has info on this please share. It is a new hype now ICOs do airdrop before ICO starts for promotion, but Sophia is already in token sales, so maybe we are too late
Are their tokens already on sale? And where can they be bought, on which exchanges?

There was no airdrop and there won't be and we are planning to hold TGE on the 5th DECEMBER. Participants will receive ERC20 tokens and we will swap them once we will launch our own wallet - planned for 2Q - 3Q 2018.


This question I would like to clarify in more detail. Before the release of your own coin, these tokens that are sold on the ICO will be frozen on addresses or can they be traded on etherdelta? That is, for example, if I buy more tokens on the exchange, will you then exchange them for your coins? Or will you exchange only to those who buy on the ICO? As I understand it, your own coin will be on exchanges only after the 2-3 quarter of 2018?

No, they won't be frozen, they will be tradable. We will announce their listing on exchanges. And we will swap all you have, not just those you have got from the TGE.


Good news. I believe that the exchange will be done through some kind of interface on the site, since tokens can be automatically changed only to other tokens. And then the question arises: if I buy all your tokens on the stock exchange, do I need to register KYC when I exchange these purchased tokens from you on the site? Or can any person exchange without a registration procedure?

You have to fill up KYC form only if you want to participate in our TGE. If you want to buy our tokens when they will be awailable on exchanges, you don't have to do KYC.

Is KYC required for any investment amount or will it be a tiered process?

Hey Guys,

Just to summarized what we expecting soon from Linx devs as they mentioned in slack.

1) Updated Source Code (Just released last night)
2) Updated Wallets - Windows, MAC, Ubuntu (Just released last night)
3) LinxPay System - already completed and currently undergoing testing
4) First major retail integration with Million+ users
5) More exchanges along with the above retail integration
6) Linx Platform

As you can see from above and unlike other coins Linx value will come from it's use rather than trading and also lead dev promised us in slack that we all will have very Merry Christmas and as they mentioned we are the early birds.

Really happy to be part of this project since the beginning and exciting times are ahead of us.

Cheers,

Sidath.

Do you know who is involved in the retail integration? Are they cooperating with a business and making it happen as we speak or is still too early to say something about it?

Resistance with 500BTC on Poloniex will get into game on next two days and after touching down at 0.0006 lisk will rise for 100%
I hope your prediction is correct, will be almost perfect if it drops that low - I'm targeting most of my buys down to just below 58,000

Why do you even think it drops that low? I am very positive that LISK only knows a single way which is up!

LSK against USD/Fiats is only rising

But against Bitcoin it is very Volatile look the trend Channels I paste above. There are some speculators from Forex, especially Japanese and Korean markets with a lot of BTC manipulating the market.

When 500BTC means $5 million appearing and disappearing on sell or buy side on Poloniex during hours, it can be only market manipulators.

Yes but you can probably apply that analysis to pretty much any alt coin out there. Not many alt coins rose simultaneously with Bitcoin recently.

What type of filter are you guys using? I did similar type of project back in college. Used Kalman Filter which is one of the best filter tech for Image processing and AI. Curious to know what people use these days for Blockchain. 

We will be using a lot of different filters, it depends on which part of the face the filter will be working with.

Here is the direct answer from our algorithm developer:

For face detection filters will be skin filter, edges filter like Canny, Sobel, Histogram of Oriented gradient (HOG) or HAAR. For face recognition is much more difficult and we need classifiers and neuron networks. For convolutions networks the filters are choosen by the training software.
In most cases they are 3x3 or 4x4 matrixes
Also we will have filter for eyes, nose, mouth detection, estimating some proportions and so on

I hope this answer your question, or else feel free to ask Smiley



Are you pulling data from third parties or how will you ensure that your algorithm works well from the beginning? Or will it take some time for the algorithm to learn and improve with the increasing amount of data from new users?

That is really good question!
I will ask the algorithm developer, and get back to you as soon as possible with an answer

I hope you have a very good answer to this because i is ultimately essential to the business model you propose!

It absolutely answers the bold part of my question, thanks. But in regards to the first part of the question, it is exactly what will happen. If your network is successful you will run into the same scalability issues as any other digital currency.
Isn't this a generic problem for all cryptocurrencies? Bitcoin and Ethereum are the forerunners and the reason that Litecoin has not yet had to deal with this is that it is still relatively smaller, but at a given moment it will also be affected.

I couldn;t find any faces , who are those guys ? I can't see them o the website either
It will be revealed once they have reached a certain crucial stage of their roadmap.

Xtrabytes XBY- Is next generation crypto platform/currency under development. now testing for 10k/s. Proof of Signature, not PoW or PoS, no inflation, no problem with scalability, no expensive mining, no electricity abuse. Very strong security. An upcoming underdog. PoW crypto are ancient tech and will die out...

Well then I am sure you are shorting BTC with every single dollar you have hm? I don't think BTC will go away btw Wink

Our PRE-ICO starts in 3 days.

Remember you only need 10.000IDS to run one of our nodes.

Read our whitepaper here: https://biometrids.io/#biometrids-whitepaper

By the way do you have any patented technology or any pending patents?

We do not have any patens at the moment, neither any pending.
In our stage 3, where we will be building nodes implementation these will run with machine learning / artificial intelligence.
In this stage we may take patent on some of the technology, but it depends on how things will turn out in this phase.



It's also not necessarily beneficial to claim a patent for a technology since you need to explain it publicly to its tiniest detail. It depends! Wink

Why do you need so many confirmations, the transaction speed as a result is very slow

ETH killer? i don't think so

Lisk blockchain itself only need 10s to confirm your transaction. 303 confirmation to deposit to exchanges is depend on exchanges, not Lisk.

Which exchange requires 303 confirmations for deposits? Does that even make sense from a security perspective to require so many confirmations?
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LSK] Lisk | Blockchain Application Platform for JavaScript Developers on: November 23, 2017, 09:50:10 AM
11 month for a long-term investor is not a term at all.
I believe that you should keep coin at least three years to take really good profit.

Don't lose your trust, Lisk is a strong and useful crypto, I think everything still ahead for Lisk.
I also believe that 2018 will be year of altcoins (and ICO bubble collapsing, haha)



He didn't imply that he is going to sell anytime soon. But check where LISK was 11 months ago, this guy has some nice green figures on his balance sheet Wink

Almost 11 months I keep LSK, hope prices continue to rise as almost all altcoin prices also rise


Almost 11 months? Well, then there is nothing I can do for you except for saying congratulations! Wink Well done!

Hey EdgarJohn, you are totally right of course! But the question for scalability issues should still be asked I think. I was just interested in whether or not the team behind this coin thought about that issue at all.

I am brand new to this forum but am active on other social media outlets - how can I make some money?  Huh Cool

Well the dude from the official post didn't even outline what this coin is supposed to do so I doubt we can tell you how you can make money with this -.-

Hello, there is an infographic in the official thread which outlines what's the purpose of the coin, what the plans are, etc.

Yes but I wouldn't necessarily call it self-explaining if you know what I mean. You could elaborate a little bit further on the most important aspects.

What we are doing is taking our PerksCoin (which is currently being used on our platform by 10’s of thousands of people) Reward Points, basing it on decentralized blockchain technology, and turning PerksCoin into not only a Cryptocurrency, but also creating a universal API for a loyalty program which can be implemented into any retailer. Any company that wants to accept it, be it online or physical location, can also implement it into their systems. We have already partnered with 6 companies.

PotCoin is a regular bitcoin based currency. The PerksCoin token is similar to PotCoin, but is not a second PotCoin. PerksCoin tokens can be bought using traditional currencies, and as well as, cryptocurrencies. After the ICO, PerksCoins will also be able to be bought via credit and debit card. PotCoin was created to facilitate transactions within the cannabis industry, whereas PerksCoin can be used for the same purpose but also as a loyalty program among retail stores in the cannabis industry, and as well as, any other business that will accept it. It’s Air Miles on Steroids. PotCoin also is not self-regulated.

If you have any questions or concerns, let us know.

If you haven't had a look, here is our crowdsale page: www.cannasos.com/crowdsale-ico
And our One-Pager: https://cdn.cannasos.com/static/files/one-page.pdf

thank you very much sir! That explanation helped a lot to get an understanding of what you are doing. Will check out the links you provided, thanks!

I just read about Apples face recognition technology being hacked. Are you bullet proof secured against that?

The technology in it self is not 100% bullet proof as it is today. To be 100% bullet proof we also need to solve the problem of twins who can login to each others phones. This is both apple, samsung and other phones.

We are protecting each account with a password in our first stages, and the password will be there until the technology is 100% bullet proof. In our whitepaper, we are talking about things that needs to be solved. To make the system bullet proof.

The hack you read about, is that the Vietnamese hack where they used a mask to unlock the phone?

But take a look at this video, shows the security and the problems we face. In the video they also use a mask, at the Vietnamese hack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhbMLmsCax0


I must say I like the fact that you are honest with your answer. So many projects are claiming unrealistic crap, you don't! Yes the Vietnamese researcher cracked it. Awful security flaw.

Thank you!

we are not here to fool people into thinking we can change the world by tomorrow. Things will take time. We believe in this technology, and it will for sure play a big part of the future. Both of blockchain and other aspects in life. We are not afraid of speaking about the pro and the cons. Because they are there. If we promissed people that the technology was 100% today, then we would be lying, and that is not any of our intensions with this. We are here to do a difference for the blockchain technology, not just to be pointed out as scammers or liars.

Regarding the hack. There are these things you should pass by to hack into the persons account on Biometrids platform. As the system is today.

1: You should know the person has an account.
2: You should have a 3D picture of the person.
3: You should have a 3D printer.
4: You should have the persons password.

It is much easier to unlock the phone, as long as it is your own face that you use to manipulate. Then you have everything you need with in reach. When it comes to getting another persons face in a 3D pucture it get much more complicated. Combine this with a password on top and its just like 2 factor authentication we know from websites today.

You can watch a video of the hack here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA025AkNPY0
It took them 9 hours, to setup the mask before it unlocked the phone. Then add that you might not even know if the person has an account. You could waste a lot of time for nothing.

Your explanation is much appreciated and I will certainly spend some time to stay up to date with what you guys are doing!

as soon as you reach scale, your currency will face the same problem as any other currency. And why is this dedicated to music scene? Do you have agreements with producers or anything similar?
Perhaps the message below from the first post will answer the bold part of your question.
