Re-posting this for visibility.  Is anyone interested in helping out on the above R&D and creation of a spreadsheet?  It would help us in our next endeavor, integrating with IPFS by Christmas 2018.  Specifically, I would like to uncover which coin in production already mounts a filesystem, the end-user experience, and the speed in which the up-down works, and the reliability over time.

// Return name of current UI-theme or default theme if no theme was found
QString getThemeName()
{
    QSettings settings;
    QString theme = settings.value("theme", "").toString();

    if(!theme.isEmpty()){
        return theme;
    }
    return QString("bezaleel");  
}

// Open CSS when configured
QString loadStyleSheet()
{
    QString styleSheet;
    QSettings settings;
    QString cssName;
    QString theme = settings.value("theme", "").toString();

    if(!theme.isEmpty()){
        cssName = QString(":/css/") + theme;
    }
    else {
        cssName = QString(":/css/light");  
        settings.setValue("theme", "light");
    }
    
    QFile qFile(cssName);      
    if (qFile.open(QFile::ReadOnly)) {
        styleSheet = QLatin1String(qFile.readAll());
    }
        
    return styleSheet;
}

how soon do you see something in 'transaction' report? i have run it on minersofmen but within 45 minutes nothing yet showing up? Is it same as main pool about every hour it gives out shares?

And which theme did you get as the default? Bezaleel or light theme?

Thats true.  Yes, correct, and I remember testing bezaleel on a new windows box successfully (as the default) and on one of my new linux sancs successfully.

So it appears this was a bad test.

I already changed the default theme to Bezaleel, and heard replies back from new users that the default does load as bezaleel.

What kind of OS did you test this on?

I dont think we need a vote to change the default theme; its pretty much universally accepted that Bezaleel is the best (and was created with Anton to be better than the first generation default release).

I agree on the security aspect. I would never go all-in with my BBP there. Does anyone know a service that provides a shared masternode service that doesn't have this security aspect?

Is there a way to specify an address when solo POW mining?  I know it'll take a while for my wallet to run out of keys, but I'd rather not have to worry about it, since I share the wallet with a few computers.  I'm thinking of using one address for each computer, so I can easily identify which one mined the block.

Thanks!

There is no other crypto that uses 40,000 (as of the date we launched), that is one thing I'm responsible for checking during initial development.  Its up to the lead dev to launch a coin with a certain port.  I used 40,000 based on a few factors (I wanted non-ephemeral but above 32767), these ports are not blocked as commonly by networks since they are used for some existing services.  However I wasnt aware of safetynet.  But I don't think thats a problem for a few reasons.

First, the communication protocol handshake would just hang up on us or us on them.
Next, I have heard of instances of coins launching and stomping (or sharing) another coins ports and technically, the bitcoin protocol has the ability to overcome this (the version message will negotiate to our network only) and it will only store our peers in peers.dat (ones whose version matches).

So even if another coin launched with 40,000 we would be OK.  It would result in more inefficiency for them and hopefully cause them to switch to a free port before they get too far along in life.

"The wallet is not locking masternode VIN transaction coins.  So when a withdraw is made the masternode VIN could get destroyed.  We are working on a solution for this in the near future but it will not be a shared masternode but full masternode hosting."

I see. What kind of issues do other master nodes experience?

Hard to compare (besides gridcoin) because BiblePay has a lot of unique features.

Investors having hard time with bbp unless they can build their own master nodes. I think mintnodes is a great idea and we should work towards keeping them with BiblePay.

Random fork this week and watchmen requirement doesn't help

Hello,

Due to technological incompatibilities, Mintnodes.com is discontinuing the BiblePay (BBP) Clusternode service.  

Please withdraw your coins by November 1, 2018.

Thanks,

Thanks everyone for all of your hard work on BBP recently.  With the stock market turning down this week, it seems financial instability is on the rise, and it is comforting that Biblepay exists as a fallback system.  All the hard work has made this happen, and the work in progress gives confidence in its future.

Just to mention a technical topic on my mind, I usually keep my wallet computer off, and turn it on each day and send a "exec podcupdate true" PODC update manually.  However, sometimes the wallet sends an update on its own at the same time, and one PODCupdate goes out with only the remainder of coins staked.  This would reduce my daily payment unless I wait 6 confirmations and send out a new one. Is there anyway to have it not send 2 updates in this case?  Not sure how many people update like this, but I thought I'd ask the question.

Best to all,
bbptoshi

Not being taken seriously is one of the first steps in the ladder to success.

I would consider it as a good sign.

Regardless of whether Rob wants to participate or not, we can design an innovative whale-proof MN voting system that gives everyone equal voting power.

Lets think outside of the DASH box. I suggest a registration process where each staked MN investor is verified and added to a voter registration list. Each voter is assigned an ID via the same process used by legitimate crypto exchanges. Every registered voter gets one vote regardless of how many MNs they own. The majority vote wins. Anyone who wants to remain anonymous simply doesn't register to vote.

This type of democratic voting system would appeal to forward looking Christians interested in investing in a charitable coin where Christ is the only King.

what's the biblepay-cli instruction for resync, please? I'm using CLI version

thanks

Please help me fill a shared masternode for BBP.

Only $1 per month per masternode.

So do we want to propose a MN-vote-limit to Rob, or is it a waste of time?
