PoS can not be decentralized and can not be secure. You will never know if an opponent has taken control of all or part of the nodes, all nodes can be compromised or hacked.
There will be no greater security than just the PoW, there will actually be less.

I believe its easier to hack 2 or 3 pools in order to control a network over PoW (and often 1 pool has more than 50% of it, so a single target to hit) than hacking all the nodes of a network.  Pools also run more code than a node so attack surface is greater.

Network can not be controlled "over PoW" by hacking pools, because hashing power is in hands of miners not pools itself. I don't know how a PoS network can be secure and how a PoS based coin can guarantee privacy, because PoS is inherently centralized.
Maybe privacy is not intended for zano?

Not sure how much you have mined, but miners provide power to pools, pool is running the node so it can double spend and do all kind of things with that node, as long as the pow algo is the same miners don't know much about what they really do...

No surprised that everyone is worried about pools that owners near large chunk of bitcoin network...

If a pool double spends it will lose all its miners, so it can not "control a network over PoW"; yes, it can do all kind of things with that node but not with the network. With PoS you will never know if a malicious actor has sabotaged all or part of the nodes. There is not solution to 51% PoW attack because PoW is the only solution to Byzantine Generals Problem.

The cryptocurrency community must accept the risk of 51% PoW attack, unless wishes to renounce decentralization and privacy.

Hey. Please tell us what are the communities' ideas about including the BBR as Masternode?

If you want BBR coins do your work, and give us the Proof of your Work.
The only solution for Byzantine Generals' Problem is the PoW, so PoS(hit) and masternodes are insecure.

Is there any chance Boolberry will have a masternode system or similar?

Zoidberg is planning to bring in a Proof of Stake hybrid system into Boolberry. Dash's masternode system started out as a privacy mechanism for its coinjoin system but at it core it is basically a Proof of Stake layer that requires users have a 1000 coins to participate. By design their system is not very egalitarian and because of that it drives the price up by requiring users to have 1000 coins and those coins remain off market staking which also reduces the availability of the coin supply.

Cool. Wouldnt the reduced supply be beneficial in increasing the price? Less circulating supply plus more demand.

Yes it would. It's proven very effective for Dash. It might be something for the community to discuss with Zoidberg as an option. I personally prefer egalitarianism (any amount can stake) which would let everyone help secure the network by staking. I see there are some movements in the Dash community now to lower the masternode requirement.

Another thing to consider is CN projects have daemon and wallet as two separate processes. In theory, one could run a daemon and allow others to connect remotely to it so they don't have to sync daemon. This "Masternode" daemon could be compensated for its service through a fee for each user that uses it, similar to how Dash's masternodes are compensated for providing privacy.

1.- How do you know a master node has not been compromised? How do you know all masternode network has not been hacked?  PoW is the only solution to the Byzantine Generals' Problem. PoS is not a PoW, so it has an inherent risk. http://nakamotoinstitute.org/mempool/proof-that-proof-of-work-is-the-only-solution-to-the-byzantine-generals-problem/

2.- There are no ASICs for wildkeccack, and BBR has a well distributed hashingpower.

3.- The first and most succeful cryptocoin is pure PoW.

4.- Crytpcoin leaders in privacy vertical are pure PoW.

5.- Dash is not a cryptocurrency to imitate: its mixing system is horrifying, you need a course to temper it. And its does not garanted privacy because PoS cannot solve the  Byzantine Generals' Problem.

6.- The "availability of the coin supply" should be reduced by the quality of BBR, security of its blockchain and privacy must be the focus: "Privacy and Security - Guaranted".


So, what's the point in PoS for BBR?

Where is the blockchain?
'save' command doesn't work; exit command doesn't storage the blockchain...

If you're using Windows:

It's saved in /Roaming/Tavos
Run %appdata% in Windows

Of course... it should be saved there, but it is not.

TAVOS
Cents in the Internet
Tavos came from the word: "centavos" which in Spanish means 1/100 of a currency or a cent


Total Supply: 18446744073709551616 - 184.46 billion
Block Reward: Smoothly Decreasing per Block
Block Retarget: 2 mins


Amigo, esto no son 'billones' hispanos ni tampoco 'billions' anglosajones: los primeros son del orden de 10^12 y los segundos de 10^9. Son 18.46 trillones hispanos.

I'm solo mining this coin with aeond, and to want to mine on same daemon from another pc (cpu mining) in my home network (cpu mining).
Please, how to do it?

Thank you.

You can try simpleminer which comes with the standard distribution. No one really uses it (for any of the cryptonote coins) so it is possible it won't work or won't work well.

Failing that you will have to install the pool software and then you can use any of the optimized pool miners, gpu miners, etc.

For any of these you also need to make sure your firewall settings allow the remote connection.

Thak you for you quick response. Do you know which config or command line should I use with simpleminer?

yes the software works fine but the only issue is the server disconnects. tried a few different pools and getting the same issues.
Getting discontections on GPU solo mining, also Sad

keep selling low  Kiss

ha ha! you like that, don't you?  Lips sealed

if KRYP go pow/pos ill stake a lot  Cool

PoS cannot be secure, and it should be avoided. Only PoW can be secure.
I am not a cryptologist but it is what I have read.

I got a few simple ideas and unique which you may like to implement as a developer. That's good enough for promotions (and that's all what DRK did).

I'll do what I can do on my side.

DRK has been working very hard on the technical side, and anonimity is determinative (anonimous transactions, opaque blockchain, etc.).

But unfortunately this coin's dev gave up.

First wave of bitcoin took years, now alt devs pretend to go to the moon in two months.
