Why are tx fee so high(from over 1USD to 3USD at todays prices), this coin is useless for small transactions. When we can expect lower fees?
Bitcoin never meant to be used for micro-transaction and Monero even less. Monero is a very specialized crypto that focuses of anonymity only. For micro-payments, "coins" like BitShares, etc, are suitable. |

This coin is so deadly deadly dead. Not even a stuipd cat would eat that half rotten dead fish.
Great work Zoidy

Will CZ come back to work on Boolberry actively or he is still concentrating on the second project?
Nope, never ever. Just look at what he is doing right now. BBR is dead dead dead ... |

Hash rate is dropping (76.08 MH/sec right now). The coin is dying and no one seems to be worried about this. Thanks for the fish

Will there be a win32 release ?
Hi, Yep, there will be win32 release. I expect a win16 release too  |

BBR is dirt cheap now
And dirty dead ... |

IMHO, the next step for BBR is that CZ changes (simplifies) the code base such that it could be (easily) taken over by some group of interested devs. Right now, the source code reads unready compared to, e.g., XMR code. There were also a couple of problems, when I remember correctly, with compiling the BBR code. The latter is probably the most important thing that should be improved. BBR code must compile for everyone on Linux and Windows and, maybe, MacOS too. When that stage is reached (maybe it is already reached; but not to my knowledge), BBR can start to evolve. To me, BBR looks like a frozen fish right now that either needs to be eaten asap, or revived and put back into water. Of course, I am in favor of life  |

To me the case is clear. We are talking about cz's reputation here, no one else's.
The little BBR needs his dad! (Or mom?) Hey, cz it is time to finally return to your child. You are being missed.

Well, I do see your argument, but reality says otherwise. Devs simply are not releasing any news or updates, no? ... Thank you for sharing your concerns, and I have feeling a lot of people is working or at least considering how to solve those kind of problems. Good answer :-) I believe the BBR network either needs a hardfork (the next BBR update will require that anyway I presume) or that all of the 1% "premine" coins are (continuously) transferred to some address under control of some BBR committee such that the amount can be used to create better incentives to improve the network. |

You do not think that current possibility to opt-out from contributing to development is enough?
You can not opt out. You can only vote to reduce the rate of payment. I wasn't going to reply at all but since I replied to correct this point I'll add that I don't think the 1% deferred premine is a big deal. The mechanics of the system could have been disclosed better but as these things go in crypto it is a relatively insignificant issue. Everyone was well aware of a 1% developer reward even if the exact details were clear only in the code. Also, CZ used some of the boolbs from that 1% for bounties for ppl that contributed somehow to the project. E.g. I got 10ish block worth of boolbs at the time for putting effort in tutorial thread. And another point is, as the "premine" is deferred, if anything it further incentivise devs to take care of boolberry in the future. I completely agree with you smooth, tnx for correcting me Still I believe the ongoing premine is a problem for many, generally interested, people. There is nothing that can be prefixed with PRE there. It simply is a marketing thing, and BBR is flawed here. It might not be a big flaw; but it is a flaw simply because that premine is inherently something centralized with no real opt-out switch (so you are forced to accept it). But you could hardly call it premine if devs will get 1% of block that will be mined in a week or in a month. There is not much that can be prefixed with pre there. Smooth has best name i've jet heard for it, "deferred premine", and you'll realize that the model actually gives incentives to devs to work on the project in the future, which does gives it an edge compared to other projects when speaking of probability of devs working harder on the code and adding features that add value to the network, while not being premined network. With that said, other non-premined projects might actually be flawed by not having BBR model for keeping devs inherently motivated Well, I do see your argument, but reality says otherwise. Devs simply are not releasing any news or updates, no? It's a premine irrespective of the attribute. Most people don't like that. Money is always an issue, but getting "1% of every block" is not an incentive, it is a bold flatrate. |

Do you agree that the dev bounty amount should not not be in question (or is probably too low)?
I agree with you that a new incentive structure would be preferable and it should be created if we can reach a consensus.
My issue is not with the amount. It is that the bounty is built into the protocol level. I believe (and I believe others will believe) that developer funds and project bounties should happen a level above the protocol, on a social layer - no profit/compensation mechanisms should ever be baked into the protocol itself. As well I am concerned about the nature of this fund. Is this a stash specifically for the head dev that he claims as his own? Or is it a war chest that has been pledged to incentivize development now and in the future? Let me be clear that I have a favorable opinion of Boolberry, respect their technical development of the Cryptonote protocol and include them in the short list of not just valid Cryptonote projects - but valid "alt" coins. I just wish some things were different, and I think it would benefit their long term adoption. 100% agreed. The social layer is the only layer suited for this kind of things. This is probably one of the things that kept BBR from flying... |

First of all: big thanks for doing this work! 100% appreciated! :-) On Win10 using AMD's driver v15.7.1 and two 7850 cards, I encounter low hashrates (<50% of Claymore's miner v9.3) for all values of rawintensity and worksize I could try. (It seems Windows 10 consumes a lot of GPU memory on my first card.) Also, AMD's graphics driver often resets itself, and cpu load of your v0.2 miner is constantly at 25% (right so?). The miner probably works better with Ubuntu, I believe. |

Just switched to Windows 10 and testing my system... experiencing a significant drop on mining speed with my gtx960 card, using the latest Nvidia driver (358.87) and the cpuminer-multi-opencl miner: Mining speed dropped from 830 kh/s to 560 kh/s! Is this common knowledge? Does anyone know how to fix this? Thx in advance!

It seems there are good work around BBR recently. This coin has good community.
Someone wants to buy a shitload of BBR on Polo and that's all. The dev last posted to this thread a month ago. Not much github activity either. I just noticed the 172,000 bbr buy wall. Impressive The wall is still there so I guess it was not a "fake" wall meant to manipulate as people often suggest when they see larger than normal buy or sell walls. There is no such thing as "fake walls". Markets just do what markets do. |

Pretty much done with the custom miner, iDunk on IRC is running a stability test.
EDIT: I should say milestone 2; the performance kinda sucks - needs more work.
Any details on performance? (And cpu load?) |
