WhatToMine is a popular cryptocurrency website we could list BiblePay on https://whattomine.com/In the Bitcointalk Forums, people point new miners to this website === Proof of Work is based on Hash Rate and Network Hash Rate (and Dark Gravity Wave?) and Proof of Distributed Computing is based on RAC and Total RAC, and RAC grows in a weird decay function way (The ability to support more than one Science Research project complicates things) = So it looks like we could definitely easily set up a PoW Calculator with WhatToMine === Requesting coin addition. Coin must be on one of those exchanges: Binance, Bitfinex, Bittrex, CryptoBridge, Cryptopia, HitBTC, Poloniex or YoBit. https://whattomine.com/contacts/newWe have submitted payment to CryptoBridge and are waiting until after our next mandatory release to move forward with listing, so after that we would meet their requirement to get BiblePay added. === Also, we could nudge WhatToMine to add a CPU section, do you think they would add it? How do they gather the data on how different hardware does on each algorithm? Are users submitting that data? UPDATE: I contacted them

BBP is a side hobby for me and we support Compassion kids on our own, but I've gotta say there's no easy way to figure this stuff out for someone new. Now granted I have two rigs with many GPUs running and I can mine about anything, but Biblepay has to make it cryptic.
Yeah Gary we need help documenting this, streamlining the information, the process, Would you be down to help out on the Wiki? I will gladly pay you (or anyone!) for any work on that > my RAC is 1607, the console knows that, so why doesn't the wallet show me how much BBP I need to stake to get 100% UXTO awards? I would add this as a feature request on Github Issues: https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/issues> So I changed my utxoamount=36321 (was 5539) in the biblepay.conf and exec stakebalance still shows: 5539. I shut the wallet down and restarted so I'm guessing it takes time, but how much I can't seem to locate. I'm not sure how much time it takes, but your PoDC Controller Wallet sends a PoDC Update every few hours or so, so it would depend on when its scheduled to send next, I think it can be run manually "exec podcupdate" > So if the utxoamount= still needs to be in the .conf file then why isn't the wallet smart enough to autostake the max amount available? I believe utxoamount= is not required anymore as of a month or so ago, so the latest versions will auto stake, the documentation on this may be out of sync === If anyone is interested, please help document things on the Wiki! https://wiki.biblepay.org/Just register for an account Ill try to update when I can, Im way behind Also youtube videos showing the mining setup process would be awesome! Remember, any work can potentially be funded through the BiblePay Masternode Governance/Proposal/Budget system!

If its good we can use it on the upcoming new website! This is instrumental in expanding our presence in China! This is awesome! Ive sent the link to TMike, hes the only person I know for sure in the project that that knows Chinese Can anyone else read Chinese? Once this is ready I can get it posted everywhere, I am curious of what places QIEX knows of to post this, that have more Chinese crypto investors/miners, the big place I could find was http://8btc.com/ and TMike and I couldnt get into it to post LOL

i have the 1.1.2.8 wallet, but i do not have very many nodes, its been 3 days behind for a bit now apparently.
are there some nodes i can add please?
wallet stuck not syncing. Wallet version 1.1.3.0 Win64
Any code above v1.1.2.4 is the latest code is in testing, we are testing on the Testnet chain, So Id probably recommend staying at v1.1.2.4 or lower unless you want to help test Here is the Testnet Testing Thread ^

Hi everyone, I recently got in contact with a representative from Compassion and confirmed that Biblepay is indeed sponsoring the number of children it says it is. Below is the E-mail communication: Hi Michael, Sorry I was traveling for work this week and am now catching up on emails. As of Tuesday’s report we show 302 sponsored children in the BiblePay record. Rob says he shows 306. It could be that these 4 graduated recently, moved, and are being replaced with new children in the program as we speak. BiblePay has pre-paid for its kids many months in advance as well. Warmly, Ginger Here is Ginger's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginger-langehennig-4b31981b/Great work TMike! === Is This Coin a Scam? https://isthiscoinascam.com/check/biblepayIve updated the owner with last 2 pieces of information, previous form submissions didnt work, so I contacted the owner on telegram today and he is going to update it Please leave a review of BiblePay! === "Is Biblepay a scam?

Looks like you can put daemon=1 and txindex=1 in ~/.biblepaycore/biblepay.conf file I think forever is nodejs only, I just tested using a crontab to run biblepayd every minute, and it works!

seems like BiblePay crashes randomly every few weeks, (Anyone know how I can automate it to restart Biblepay if BiblePay crashes and to delete the explorer/tmp/index.pid file as well?)
This is a bit "rough" in that I should have parameterized the working directory, or at least made it a variable, but here you go: #!/bin/bash fname="/home/biblepay/explorer/tmp/index.pid" if [[ -f "$fname" ]]; then pid=$(</home/biblepay/explorer/tmp/index.pid) echo $pid ps -p $pid > /dev/null r=$? echo $r if [ $r -eq 0 ]; then exit 1 else rm $fname fi fi I added this to crontab to run periodically. In cases where the index.pid is still there but the process is gone, it simply removes the index.pid file. Hope this helps. I dont know bash at all (nor do I barely know any linux haha), but just to be sure I understand: -f is checking if the file exists index.pid is the indexing lock file with its process ID number inside of it ps -p checks if the process is running $? is the value of the last output that ran and since the previous value is going to dev/null, its the exit code status "0 for successful executions and 1 or higher for failed executions." and so if the process is still running, the bash script just exits, otherwise the process is done and the index.pid file gets removed COOL! So looks like the file doesnt need a .sh extension, if you have "#!/bin/bash" at the top then linux knows its a bash script chmod +x to set it as executable === Also I successfully used nginx to forward nodejs port 3001 to port 80 https://eladnava.com/binding-nodejs-port-80-using-nginx/=== Now I just need to figure out how to restart biblepayd if it crashes, systemd seemed a little complicated, I may just use an infinite while loop bash script LOL

Updated my explorer, coin supply matches "gettxoutsetinfo" command
|
|
|
So actually the interesting thing is that Iquidus (the base for the block explorers) can calculate the total coin supply in several different ways. Here's what the config says: // how to calculate current coin supply // COINBASE : total sent from coinbase (PoW) // GETINFO : retreive from getinfo api call (PoS) // HEAVY: retreive from heavys getsupply api call // BALANCES : total of all address balances // TXOUTSET : retreive from gettxoutsetinfo api call I assume that the gettxoutsetinfo call is the most accurate one, but to match the other explorers as closely as possible, I didn't end up using that in mine. Togo and I noticed some differences between the 3 explorers and the api call, but the closest was COINBASE. If you look at https://explorebiblepay.com the total supply is reported via the COINBASE (PoW) mechanism. I'd be happy to change it to txoutset, which I still think is the most accurate, but then we'd have 3 explorers with 3 wildly different reports of supply. I haven't tested this myself, but I am willing to guess that biblepay-central is using GETINFO (PoS) instead. Perhaps Togo/Licht/myself should get together and agree on a way of reporting supply within the block explorers. gettxoutsetinfo is the most accurate and should be the same for everyone. On top of that, it is also not affected by any reindexing so it probably should be configured that way.
It would be nice for biblepay-central to use that as it is used by coinmarketcap to determine the max supply of BBP (and therefore its market cap). Any signification variation of the data provided provided by biblepay-central would impact the market cap displayed there.
My explorer uses BALANCES, should I edit it to use TXOUTSET?

Just an upcoming FYI:
I've been working on fixing the cascading superblocks bug and would like to test this in testnet, however, this is going to be one of those harder to test features, since this requires more than 10% of testnet sanctuaries to vote on the daily and the weekly (testnet has the weekly budgets instead of monthly) superblock...
So, please if you had a testnet masternode up at one time we might need your help soon, as I believe we will need about 5 sancs in testnet.
I'll make a testnet thread once this is compiled. We can also test all features slated for the end of June.
One nice feature we have coming is faster boot time. We now have the prayers loading on their own thread, so the boot should be 50% faster.
***Testnet June 2018 Mandatory Upgrade Testing Thread***https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=190.0I jumped the gun, BiblePay v1.1.2.5+ is not on Github yet, so wait for it to be released first: https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/commits/master
