BLNC coin trading volume on the SatoExchange exchange.
Pairs: BLNC / BTC & BLNC / ETH are still low, why don't you choose a common exchange that is used by the public, not my intention to distort the stock exchange market, but this exchange is not very commonly used by the public, try entering a stock exchange that has a trading volume. which is quite large, this will help increase the trading volume of BLNC coins

Thanks for your feedback! We will definitely work on getting listed on other exchanges too, though we are more focused on our product itself at the moment. A lot of exchanges ask a high listing fee and we tend  to avoid the ones with fake volume too.

Your website says Company paid 10 M BLNC to almost 8000 users. Then why your Twitter followers are only 3014.
Anyway. Do you have plan to marketing on Reddit then I have > 10k Karma and >2 years old. Do you have any extra reward for my Reddit Account?

Following on Twitter was optional for our airdrop.
We have only setup a subreddit recently, and we are looking to grow our community with people who are interested in our project and actively involved and not only looking for free crypto.
I will PM you.

Our blockchain API capabilities have been extended with a reverse image search developers API.

Calculate Image Hash
Calculate a perceptual hash of an image by using an URL to the image.

Request:
requestType is calculateImageHash
url is the URL to the image

Response:
hash (S) is the perceptual hash of the image located on the URL
requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example:

Request:
http://18.197.116.35:9085/nxt?requestType=calculateImageHash&url=http://ogsteviestrow.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Patreon-320-320-300x159.png

Whats next?
  • Integrate our reverse image search with each node. Each node will crawl the web to improve our reversed image search. This means that the more nodes the birdlance blockchain network has, the more powerful our reverse image search will become. We will contineously work on improvements to the blockchain to make our reversed image search smarter and self-sustainable.
  • Our indexed data (hash and image url) is too big to store on chain. To be truely succesful we need around 40 billion of crawled image data. Right now this data is centralized. We are working on an OrbitDB(P2P database) to make this decentralized.
  • Integrate our reversed image search APIs in the next node update. Everyone will then be able to use his/her own node for our reversed image search APIs by simply enabling the API functionalities of their node (setting in the properties file).

I trying to use this service to search few photos, but unfortunatelly even i am using free stock photo it still meet "0 results". Any info what search engine that already on your index?

Our index currently has over 1 million images. In the next node update our reverse image search is integrated with each node in the blockchain. This means that the more nodes the birdlance blockchain network has, the more powerful our reverse image search will become.

Example indexed image you can download and upload somewhere else and get this link back in search results: http://ogsteviestrow.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Patreon-320-320-300x159.png

reverse image search is now live!

-

this reverse image search portal is only usable to those that are using your platform? how much would the fee be per photo once you are out of beta? have you introduced your platform to professional photographers about this service? those that are famous in this industry who are vulnerable that their works are being copied by others?

The reverse image search on the frontpage is for everyone and can be used without an account. Using the reverse image search is private and we do not save your search images.
The image protect service requires an account. After upload your image will be protected by a unique fingerprint saved on the Birdlance blockchain and will be linked to your BLNC account. This can be viewed on the blockchain explorer by clicking the link provided in the details of the image in the my photos section. If duplicates are found, a red border will appear around the image and a "show duplicates" button will be available in the details of the image.
The fee of uploading a picture is 4 BLNC(this fee is rewarded to the node that forged the block).
In the current alpha version it is only possible to upload a single picture at a time and Birdlance will cover the transaction fee of 4 BLNC.

Is this kind of platform still a profitable business? Since we are in the digital age where most have their own smartphones and other gadgets to take photos, I am wondering if they can still sell those photos? If you are being a practical one, I don't think you will buy a photo online when you can just produce it on your own. Just my thoughts...

Most people will usually go to stock photo websites to use what they needed and if you saw someone is selling their own then then their best means of getting paid is to put watermarks first in their works to show it and then get paid if the buyer likes it and then he will give the photo with different quality and no watermarks. It needs no blockchain at all to have that 'trustless' system.

Problem with most stock photo websites is that photographers are paid pennies for each sale, and they have no means to control the price of their pictures.
We want to change that by being able to decide the price of your picture yourself. You will be able to sell your picture for any amount of BLNC you want, use BLNC to buy other services of our platform or convert your BLNC to your EUR/USD wallet. The system will then sell your BLNC at the current market price to people who are buying it at the same time.

Currently, there are many options to build a cryptocurrency, the easiest one being an ERC20 token. Since sending ERC20 tokens and interacting with smart contracts costs gas and we want users to be able to value their own work and decide their own price, we looked into various options of paying for gas on behalf of our users. This would rapidly become a costly experience, making the whole process counterproductive.
That’s why Birdlance decided to launch its own Proof of Stake Blockchain (based on NXT).

There are also free stock photo platforms, like Unsplash.
The problem with them is that most photographers don't understand the risk of facing a lawsuit as a result of uploading their images to such sites.
The lack of model releases when images are downloaded from such websites and used for commercial purposes being the most important point here.
If a photograph is used in a commercial sense and it is not model released, the photographer is liable. He can be taken to court and sued.
Also we are very skeptical by the number of photographers who are actually benefiting from using those platforms and obviously you'll see some success stories on major photography news websites.
What those platforms do is make a deliberate effort to keep its users informed about how many views their images are receiving, they are just tapping into vanity and dopamine hits with statistics that seem to blow the likes of Instagram out of the water.
But all they actually achieve is that multi-billion dollar multinationals are using photographers' work for free.

On the other hand, 85% of all pictures online are used without permission, our system generates a unique hash of each photo and can store that hash on our blockchain. When derived works are made of this photo, such as mirroring the image, making it black and white, etc, we can trace it back to the original hash.

Hope this clears up your questions!

We shifted our main focus to an online service to protect your pictures, illustrations and artwork by submitting them to the Birdlance blockchain. Track where your images are being used online powered by each node in the Birdlance network. Use our developers API  to include image recognition capabilities such as tagging or not suitable for work classifying in your own applications or submit an URL of any image and get a unique hash backed by a blockchain transaction.

i see some allocation is for NXT holder, when this event will be held? And what we need to do for get birdlance token?

Birdlance is JPL-compliant. A snapshot was taken before the launch of the Birdlance mainnet. If you own your private keys, normally you can use those credentials to login to the Birdlance wallet. Simply replace your 'NXT-' in your address  with 'BLNC-' and login to our desktop wallet, you should find your coins there. You can find multiple links for our wallet depending on your OS on our website. Keep in mind none of the devs at Birdlance hold any NXT.
When birdlance mainnet launch or am i too late now? And what the ratio for nxt holder? 1:1?
Birdlance launched on the 7th of june 2019. NXT holders were allocated 10% (ten percent), proportional to their NXT holdings.

Oh, so i'm late now.
It depends. If you held any NXT when the snapshot was taken on the 7th of june, then no, if you bought NXT later, then yes.
That what i mean, this project look interesting for me, i will buy NXT later. Any exact date the event for NXT holder?
There is no exact date, anyone who held NXT when the snapshot was taken on the 7th of june can use his/her NXT credentials to login to the Birdlance wallet and will see his/her coins.
