1581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [VIRAL] [Trading Live - Coming to Bittrex] DPoS 2.0 + 5% Dev:Adam Guerbuez on: May 14, 2015, 03:12:28 AM
Devs, the wallet shows 2 btc were gained from advertising, where is the public ledger showing the coins that were bought with this 2btc and then burned according to OP? Whatever you do with the 200+ btc from crowdfund/sell wall is your deal but this particular portion of this coin must be extremely transparent. Otherwise, it defeats the purpose of it. I only hold 5,000 but want to buy more when I see this process actually occur. By transparent, it needs to be screenshots/txids/public burn address etc.

Great question,

I closed that deal with a small advertiser who I personally have done business with in the past over the span of a few years and he reached out to me concerning getting some promo done and supporting Viral and being a part of history for being the first to have his goods promoted through VIRAL. He committed to a basic run once the network reaches a particular number of active nodes, at a total cost to him of 2btc. The actual btc has not been collected from him right at this moment, however his commitment is written in stone Smiley Also, I personally will back his agreed sponsor arrangement providing anything would ever change that he could not send it through. The point that the 2 btc is put into VIRAL, you will all be able to have transparency on this and it will be publicly reported and proudly reported. 2btc is a small influx, however it is to be the historical icebreaker that will forever hold it's legendary position as the first VIRAL sponsor contract.

Over the past 48 hours alone, I have had an influx of people reaching out to me directly on social networks and email asking me for details on how they can promote on VIRAL, I am very excited to have people interested at this rate so soon into launching VIRAL, it just shows me really how attractive this platform is to sponsors, so early on.

My sights are set on constantly tweaking and perfecting the VIRAL platform to keep it ultra current and feature rich both server side and client side. So work going on behind the scenes is non-stop with constant ideas flowing and plenty of great advancements on the horizon.

Adam G.

Good shit bro, we have faith in you. Smiley

I will start working on mixer AT which will provide a "layer of anonymity" after the ACCT takes place between BURST and QORA.
Qora with AT inside will be enabled at block 99000, which will be probably in 2-4 days.  


there goes my million.  hopefully Smiley

you guys can still throw in a bunch of coins to the bounty, it's a nice feature

I'll up my donation from 150k to 300k.

I could easily point wallet.burstcoin.info to my wallet, and I'll do that, I'm currently the holder of the "official" domain as well. burstcoin.info.

I can keep the wallet at burst.city and also have it there. no big deal. I'll work on it.



edit - only issue is that my ssl cert I made is for my burst.city domain... so I would have to make another, shouldn't be a big deal though. I'm having the ssl implemented as soon as cat can do it. I trust his skills much more than mine in this area.

I am loving this dump!! It would have been better if i had not bought it at the Crowdfund. Grin

TBH, I never thought this would happen. After speaking to the crowdfunders in slack I was so sure we would never see it bellow the 6000 range. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that some loser hacker steeling 50K coins would cause the price to tank.

Anyway.. looks like its rebounded and holding steady now which is good.

Anyone know when the trex add is coming?

hopefully not too soon.  i kinda want more cheap viral.

I'm trying to move BTC to C-cex, but something is going on and it won't let me in my account.

Any word on Cryptsy?  I would much rather do my trading there or even Poloniex...

Headed out to dinner.


Polo is by far my favorite alt exchange, I would LOVE to see VIRAL show up there, maybe we should start a vote Wink

Given current buy support there was very little benefit to buying in early. My own fault though should have anticipated it. Devs may want to consider enlisting some traders to help support the coin early on. This isn't fud, but below crowdfund on day 1 isn't good for the life of the coin as those buying at 2-5k now are going to make support levels a pain.

Oh please. Trading has been open less than 24 hrs. Stolen coins were dumped. Other exchanges not yet up.

You guys should really go back to trading pokemon cards. Less stress.

Agree.

There is right now a great opportunity to buy and hold more Virals. I don't expect to see again these prices in the near future.

Could not have said it better, this is a huge op to scoop up VIRAL on the cheap and prepare for the future of pure bliss that only going VIRAL can bring!
In fact I had several messages from people who are doing just that, so the sentiment seems quite strong.

Sentiment is strong because whether they love or hate you, Adam, they all know that you're a master at what you do.

I for one will follow you till the bitter end!

GO VIRAL!

Just so that everyone knows, There will be an official SSL web wallet VERY SOON. The wallet already exists, and the SSL cert has been made, we're implementing it soon.

The link is here (and honestly, SSL doesn't really matter, it will be there mostly to make people happy. There is no need for SSL on BURST wallets.)

http://wallet.burst.city:8125

Also note the domain, burst.city. This domain will soon be the home of many exciting projects.

Thank you!

Very nice work with the web-wallet, my friend! But why would SSL not be necessary when it comes to BURST wallets? I do not understand... Your clients would still send a plaintext/unencrypted passphrase across the Net, and I could read that straight off if I sniff the client's traffic, right?

Perhaps I misunderstand something here, but until SSL is implemented it's insecure to use any web wallet.

EDIT: I'll suggest you'd put up a self-signed cert, although that isn't "looking" too good



I'm having it done within the next day or so, so it doesn't matter much anyway, but burstdev has explained why it isn't necessary, and cat has sniffed packets to try to get the password without success, so it isn't necessary. But no big deal I want it to look secure anyway. Then there will be no second guessing at all.

Sorry for the sarcasm.

But how many people will further post here what we gonna have soon?

People post when its available!!!!

it IS available. see? http://wallet.burst.city:8125


SSL isn't necessary, but people bitch if it isn't implemented.


once again, SSL isn't necessary. We are doing it anyway, but it IS NOT NECESSARY.

I think it's kinda backwards to implement anonymity with BURST, but CIYAM said it can be done with AT.

I offer a bounty: 1,000,000 BURST to anyone who implements anonymous transactions in BURST, and makes a simple enough interface for the average user.
Sure 1m burst is not all that much, and being a programmer myself, I understand that this won't be enough reward for the work, however I only hold 1% of the coins, other holders could join in, so we can make a big bounty.

Anonymity will give value to the coin, it would be a good reason to buy it and sell it, other than the usual pump and dump gamble. If you hold BURST, join me, let's pay CIYAM to do it



Fuck it, I'm interested a bit just to see if this can be done neatly. I'll throw 150k at it too.

www.bsom.org/noncecalc

Just a little thing I whipped up for myself that I thought I'd share.  Enter the size of your hard drive in BYTES and the stagger size in MEGABYTES and it will calculate the maximum number of nonces you can plot as well as estimate how much disk space will be 'wasted'.  Good for newbies who don't know how to calculate this, or for the lazy who don't want to. :-)

Great, glad to see people developing little tools like this. Thank you!

i hope no, because i'm holding / mining burst from the beginning,
but...
the chart it is rellay clear:
we are going to die?


Kinda doubt Burst is going to 'die', but there is way too much Burst in circulation so it's entirely possible it may halve again. This is why I mentioned there should be more then one coin that uses PoC.

Since PoC uses relatively little electricity the hash power will probably stay the same. I'm contemplating selling my HDs at the moment as it was a bad idea to invest all in on one coin, but I really don't want to take the 30% hit on of reselling them. ROI right now is completely out the window.

Burst is on a nosedive. Holders don't seem to understand that this is a coin. Thus it has to be traded. Don't hold it, dump, pump, make action on the market.
Everybody is holding and it's slowly dying. Don't dream it's gonna jump to 300 overnight. It can only happen if there is action on the market.
I said this 2 months ago, everybody was dreaming to sell it @300 back then. Now, it looks like was right, unfortunately.

So all holders (many miners included here, I assume)  dump some coins, and put a buy order. If everybody did that, we'd be well. We need action. If no trades happen, coin is dying.

And there's the other issue of fast decreasing block reward. If block reward decreases faster than the BURST/BTC value increases, it's bad news. And the value keeps decreasing!
The only reason I'm still mining BURST is because there's no other PoC coin yet. I plan to make one though, and hopefully other people will make PoC coins also.

If there were other PoC coins, many miners would have left BURST for another, and then without miners the coin is completely dead.

I hear many people criticizing me that I mine to get profit. Well, duuuuuh!!! That's why anybody mines. And thus far I ended up mostly holding.
BUT I DO SOMETHING for the coin. I MINE. I mine a lot. I do a lot for the coin. Without hashpower the coin is insecure (open to 51% attack) and therefore dead, or ready to die at any time.



Burst is really cheap right now, why would you make your own coin instead of taking that time and energy and improving on Burst?

My two cents:  People don't realize why Burst and Proof of Capacity is a big deal, and we need to educate them.  I'm working on turning that paper into blog posts and I think that should help get people interested.

Proof of Stake has some serious flaws that PoC fixes.. and most people looking for a new mining method automatically figure POS is 2nd gen and the way to go and don't realize that POC is 3rd generation yet.  And let's face it, we haven't really marketed ourselves all that much.

The biggest project I think we need to stand out from POS?  Blockchain trimming.  Still no feasible solutions for a POS system.  I don't know if you guys realize just how big of a deal this is.. but it's a very big one.  Best case scenario a miner would have to download many gigabytes of trimmed blockchain using the current system.  POC miners can get started using on about 100kB even after a few years of blockchain.. and this could be traced back to the gensis for maximum trustlessness.  The ASIC resistance and other features of POC are pretty cool too.

And @bensam1231, you have some good points!  We do need to make some of our tools more user friendly.  So anyone can mine by just saying I want to use X GB on drive X to mine, it automatically plots and mines for you from that drive. And Smart contracts were being worked on but yeah, they aren't as friendly as they could be yet.
Marketing?...

Differentiating factor: Proof of Capacity
What does it mean? Capacity for what?
Memory? Disk drive? See how this is ambiguous to a layperson?

"Burst"
What does it mean, or what is it? Has the bubble burst?

Algo name: Proof of Memory
Name: Driveshares

Obviously these are simply suggestions and other names may work, but the point is it's too technical for an average person to "get" right away, then it's too ambiguous somewhere for a layperson to "get" right away. Minor branding changes can make all the difference.


Memory and hard drive space are two completely different things. Proof of Capacity is much more true.

I'll kick off another bounty right now for GUI tools for BURST that encompass the following...

1. Plotting with both GPU and CPU plotters

2. Plot optimization (not a MUST, but would be nice) along with a method of making it simple.

3. Mining with all of the miners. (give the people a choice) Both pool and solo (again, choices.)

4. The wallet in a standalone client (maybe even just a client that points to a web wallet such as mine http://wallet.burst.city:8125)



I am aware this is a fairly large project, but I'm willing to give 500k BURST right now to get the project's bounty started, I will make another bounty wallet like the one I did for my ninja UI bounty (which still hasn't been claimed, or really even suggested that someone could claim it, which is upsetting to me, but aside the point.) or we could make a CF AT for this...if that AT wouldn't just not get funded in time and close itself. Come on people, lets PUSH BURST UP!

but either way, I'm totally willing to initiate the funding of such a project. Let me know if there are any takers

Ha, further declining prices ... my theory continues to prove itself.

Yes, because prices in markets never go down. Get real man.

Np Crowetic,

ByteEnt is a great asset and everyone can see the great things you're doing for Burst.

It makes sense for all of the miners on Burst.Ninja to be buying the asset or my mini version
and take some ownership and profit from the pool your mining on. Plus these guys are working
on several other things.

Burst, ByteEnt and by extension ByteEMini have a very bright future, it's early days.




Absolutely my friend, absolutely.
1598  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000 on: May 11, 2015, 02:18:29 PM
New Asset Announcement

Name: ByteEMini
Asset ID: 639537212154320
Offer Price: 0.4
Total Shares: 100,000

100 ByteEMini = 1 ByteEnt

This asset is based on my personal holdings of 1000 x ByteEnt shares details on this can found here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg10682579#msg10682579

All dividends received on my 1000 ByteEnt shares will be passed onto ByteEMini holders. Payouts monthly.

This asset is for people that were interested in the ByteEnt shares, but perhaps didn't have the funds for purchasing
or missed the initial offer or want to try out the asset market with a smaller asset purchase.

To purchase:-
Open burst wallet
Click Asset Exchange tab on left side navigation menu
Click Add Asset button top right side corner
Enter asset id: 639537212154320

Recommended purchase in blocks of 100

Any questions please ask.
Thank you.



I am puzzled about this asset. What is it for? I mean, why not simple offer the original for trade? What if the price diverts of original and yours? What if the original transfers (again) into another asset? If somebody cannot afford 40, then I doubt he could afford 4 Burst to buy, lol.

Hi Elmit,

This asset is simply a diluted holding of the ByteEnt shares 100 to 1.

The price will follow ByteEnt shares at the diluted ratio because its the same thing essentially.

If ByteEnt transferred into a new or some other asset, Mini holders would have ownership of the new asset
just as if they were holders of the ByteEnt. This is just a dilution of the original shares 100 to 1.

100 Mini shares = 1 ByteEnt share

I expect overtime that ByteEnt shares will increase in value and my pricing strategy will become more obvious
for example if ByteEnt rises to 400 and ByteEMini will then be 4 burst per share. A lot more affordable to the average
wallet holder.

I for one, appreciate the backing. No matter what form. Thank you.

It also is good to have more assets no matter what, just use the system.

BURST isn't going anywhere, so yes, I too suspect that over time his asset will make more sense.

Also, ByteEnt is DEFINITELY not going anywhere. That asset will never die, will never change, it will never do anything but go up in % being paid out.



Right now people are losing faith, but that's fine, it weeds out the people who don't believe in the coin. Let them go.

I know what is in store, and even if it doesn't come immediately, it will come.


Take a look at BTC, do you think there weren't many times in its life where people said "this is dying, this is dead" etc? Hah. Laughable.


There are still many big things going on, albeit not as fast as some people might like, but that's life.



Take this as a time to accumulate a TON of everyone's favorite coin. Wink That's what I'm doing.


BURST has always been a more long-term coin. If you can't see that, then dump and get out. But I truly believe that the people who are here, sticking it out when the price is low and people are naysaying, THOSE are the ones that in the future will be very very pleased, just like the early adopters of BTC that didn't cash out to buy pizza.

My 2 BURST.

Thanks riskyfire, for backing my company and believing in our assets, and thank you for seeing further than a day. (as it seems a lot of people do.)

Hmmm, I don't want to cause any more trouble for you BAC. ...

<3

But really it's no trouble at all.  I'll be sure to post everything up exactly how I would wanted posted if I was in your shoes.  Then you can do with it what you will.  Thanks for understanding that I won't post peoples Bitcointalk names.

Asking questions is always healthy!  I think if the devs wanted to scam they wouldn't have used me tbh.

A: I'm not getting paid because I do not have a escrow license.  This was a free service provided by me.  It's not a easy escrow, but I'm the type of guy who doesn't like easy jobs!  I believe if Adam & Company do this honestly it could be good for Crypto Currencies & early donors during this fundraising alike!  That is why I said yes. 

I want to be a part of something that changes the world for real & I think giving people the chance to do it with the help from others isn't a bad thing.  I did my research on Adam and if I wanted to build something like this... he'd be the guy I'd look to.  So when he contacts me... hell why not!


Smart man. I like this guy.

Hey, BAC, can you please verify with me that you got my deposit? I PM'd you with the txid. Thanks!
