Just moving on from all the exciting discussions....one thought on solving the sybil problem: making the spreadcoin daemon and the Bitcoin daemon pay for verifying parts of a message they get from a random selection of ServiceNodes. If the message fails to be validated, the servicenode gets bumped off the network. Also, having to pay fees to broadcast the message means taking a risk on paying out before getting payment back for running the servicenode. This has some problems, but I'm quite liking some of the features:  What I like: 1. The completed recompiled message needs all the service nodes to agree on what they broadcast so its hard to fake your portion of the message 2. Fees are involved to broadcast your part of the message. This stops thousands of fake nodes being launched on bots, because you have to fund them before getting your money back from payments. 3. If a service node gets its portion of the message wrong or is not accepted, it gets a point deduction. Get enough point deductions, and you get banned from receiving payments 4. The payment of servicenodes is not directly tied to this process. This means it doesn't really matter how long it takes to validate a message - well, it doesn't have to be done instantly. 5. The Spredcoin and Bitcoin wallet apps are within the new Spreadwallet (you know, the PhotoShop one) Thoughts? |

Never mind all that. What's your view on pricing for VTR and bandwidth for BitTorrent files. |

..However, platitudes and ideals do not necessarily correlate with a good investment.....
A good investment....that there is the issue. Turn off your monitor. Go for a walk; come back in 6 months. I seem to remember I kept giving this piece of advice to plenty of people when DASH was below $1m marketcap. For many of those that listened to me, they ended up with a good investment. Those that got frustrated because stuff takes time to build, and build properly, well they probably lost out on quite a good investment. I'd rather not have devs time taken up holding my hand if it slows down progress  [At least do your bit to help your investment; put SPR in your sig] |

@ik_do
I like the analysis you provide.
Now the dev has given some clarification around the payment channels and relationship to torrent file sizes, any further views on pricing mechanisms?

The problems PoBN is trying to solve, in perpetuity (i.e. as the Bitcoin dev says 'permanently'), in a nutshell:  I have been thinking about a more casual and easy to use in the press project name for PoBN: I would like to propose DSDN (well, until something else pops into my head). DSDN = Decentralized Services Digital Network (like ISDN, but its polar opposite). Which is basically, decentralized high speed bandwidth for blockchains [Bitcoin, SPR, etc.], more commonly known (well,it will be) as broadband for blockchains. |

....
I know that many investors (including myself) have grown restless with the lack of updates on progress and thus some people have been seeking to liquidate their assets (without completely destroying the price) with the hopes of putting their money to work in a coin where there is more transparency and communication.
... The night is always darkest just before the dawn. I know the grass always looks greener elsewhere, but sometimes staying the course is itself the best course to take. There is going to be a shinny new thing popping up here or there. Have you looked beyond the sales pitch and the new marketing materials; you know, looked under the hood? Smoke and mirrors is a great phrase I have come to respect after having lost around 20BTC chasing shinny new things around here on Bitcointalk only to find devs going missing; non-existent devs; pressure selling to help bagholders exit when they knew something was broken and couldn't be fixed; etc. Sweat, tears and heartache. That's what real projects are made of. I know when Georgem is working his socks off when you look at some of the times he logs in and out...3am, 4am, 6am, etc. You can bet there is sweat going on there, to your tears and heartache. Anyway...look at the size of the problem we are helping to solve:  The ability of Bitcoin to scale is coming under attack and pressure from various sides. This is bad news for everyone in crypto, even those that would want to take Bitcoin's leadership crown. If you hodl pieces of this project, then you hold pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that can contribute to solving a problem - 'as big as the invention of Bitcoin.' If you want to sell your pieces because someone has sold you a story that their shining new thing really does come with much greener grass; then off you go. Just ask yourself: Have they really solved a problem as big as the invention of Bitcoin? Really? Anyway, do come back and let us know about the innovation that is as big as the invention of Bitcoin itself; I will surely invest my life savings for something as innovative as that. Or is that too good to be true? |

Thanks @dev
At last, a decent dev that provides good release notes. Obviously works with good IT products and knows what customers like to see during an upgrade process.
Very professional.

i bet you get impressed somewhere within the next 3 years... Starting today...  ...now that was a surprise (Although this poster seems to have seen it coming:) the claims of fungibility are just BS: Actually, i just read a sort of retraction to the claims by Cointelegraph about the darknet market thing. Should be making some profits off that lucky find (let's face it, I need some luck at the moment, what with finding and losing 179DASH on the same day) Update: Since this article's publication, AlphaBay has responded that they are up and running, that interruptions in Monero transactions were due to a software upgrade.

... so listen to you and continue on seeing xmr's dump ?  just admit it, xmr's pump is an epic scam from Darkmarket. So the BIG dump right now is inevitable. XMR is back to 0.007 guys. Don't listen to these guys. Get out of XMR now Cointelegraph have had to make a footnote to their story. Price should go up again. I recycled a few coins waiting for the trade to go back to same levels as last week. |

I wonder where everyone that is abandoning Monero right now will move their coins.
Will they just sit on Bitcoin, or invest in another alt?
There might be some good investment opportunity if everyone decides to go in the same direction with the funds they cashed out of XMR.
Try vTorrent: count down to client linked to BitTorrent so millions (well a few thousand to start) of people get paid to seed files. |

That 400k wallet on trex  |
|
|
|
Really insane volumes on poloniex, more than 10% of the total supply during 24 hours, why?
I sold a few coins (actually, i did) |

pick a couple of altcoins |

The payment needs to be flexible. Buyer / seller market.
I can watch unlimited HD movies on Netflix for a set price:
1. Netflix monthly price (HD and 4k)
2. ISP monthly price (uncapped)
~$30/month
If my broadband is a fixed price, then I'd be happy to earn the cost of my monthly broadband, plus a little extra. But my costs are capped, so at some point I would consider reducing the cost of seeding bandwidth.
Maybe something like DarkGravityWave for difficulty re-target: Charge cost per size; until $x income is reached within a 30 day period; then discount of x% applied? This means that fees are shared more equally around the network, as your earnings can be capped to encourage more people to seed and allow more people to share in profits. I'm still keen on first 100 seeders get a share from everyone else's fees (provided they are also still seeding) in order to start a race to seed new files |
