Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

When I proposed the idea with WorldCommunityGrid on March 31, 2018, I did not think that it would be so well accepted, and second, that it would be implemented so quickly. After the official start on the 14th of April, exactly one month has passed and I think it's worth taking an interim conclusion. The Byteball.org Team on WCG has reached 237 members which have spent 8 years and 188 days of processing power in one month ranked #5,946 out of 34,147. 12.8 million WCG points have been generated. Byteball.org team is currently ranked at #175 (out of 34,147 teams) regarding number of team members. Overall a big success story. I hope it continues so that we will be soon one of the top contributing teams (Ripple Lab's team is close  ). A big thanks to all the participants which help to make the world a little better. I would not call it a big success. 200 members and 0.6Gb per day are tiny numbers. Clearly, WCG guys don't give a shit about byteball and byteball holders don't give a shit about WCG at these payout rates. |

Idea For A Sustainable Alternative To The Signature Campaign To Airdrop Remaining BytesI have been following Byteball for some time and I think the end of free coins just by holding the balance was the right decision. However, I do not like the new way to award coins for posts via a signature campaign. Apart from the fact that the benefit to the project should be limited, users who have high levels and probably already own Bytes are preferred. To get new users -- which should be the goal -- this way is rather not sustainable. So I have another suggestion where everyone can participate and do something good. I have long been an active member of WorldCommunityGrid where you can leverage your free computing power for meaningful projects and research, e.g. fighting cancer and diseases, and other important things. The software of WorldCommunityGrid named BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing) is quick and easy to install (all major operating systems and mobile phones are supported). Anyone can set up the software in a few minutes and contribute processing power. My idea: why do not we start a WorldCommunityGrid (WCG) Byteball team. For calculating small tasks, participants receive WCG points automatically. Via a Byteball bot, members can connect their Byteball address with their WCG username, and then receive free bytes from the bot - say, once a week - depending on the amount of WCG points earned. WCG provides a simple API with which the data can be read into the Byteball DAG via an oracle. The effort is not big. In principle, only the bot would have to be written. I would have liked to set the task, but unfortunately I'm not a great NodeJs programmer. If possible, the bot could also accept donations, so that the campaign could also be supported by donations and not only by the remaining bytes to be distributed. I would give a donation myself. Do good and get bytes! What do you think about the idea? This is a great idea! We'll do it. Ripple did this several years ago. This was fun, but they stopped it because this giveaway was gamed like hell by guys who had access to HPC clusters. I got a lot of XRP renting AWS compute instances  |

Всё правильно делают. Регулировать нужно рублёвые обменники, торговые точки и ICO. Главное, чтобы такой же дебилизм как в штатах не сделали, что налогом облагается каждая транзакция.

And make sure that the Jumio database is never hacked. Because once it's hacked you are ...cked.
As far as I know, Jumio shouldn't keep records, right? Jumio only verifies the identity (once!), then it's hash is stored in the DAG, and Jumio doesn't need your paperwork anymore. Jumio witnesses the hash is correct. Im not sure if I am right here, but this would make perfect sense to me. Cmon. Then how this KYC/AML works when needed? How three letter agency can find a user if they need by court order etc? Personal information. Jumio collects a wide range of personal information through the Services. This information varies depending on the Jumio application and the Third-Party Data Controller in question, but may include such information as name, physical address, email address, telephone number, social security number, driver’s license number, state or national ID card number, passport number, other ID card number, credit or debit card number, CVV, expiration date, and/or date of birth. In some cases, Jumio may collect a visually scanned or photographed image of your face and/or your identification card, driver’s license, passport, utility bill, bank account statement, insurance card, or credit/debit card. This image may include your photograph and other information from the imaged document, such as your eye color, weight, height, and organ donor status.https://www.jumio.com/legal-information/privacy-policy/jumio-inc-privacy-policy-for-online-services/ The are not supposed to store your private data in no database. Only hash in the DAG. To collect does not mean to store. If they do store your private data in their database, all this ID verification on byteball does not make sense. |
