[ANNouncement] - testing QORA blog setup with a new BURSTcoin.info blog DECENTRALIZED via QORAnet!


That's right folks, I'm testing out the QORA decentralized blog setup, and have put up a new totally decentralized and not able to be taken down blog for BURST, hosted on QORA!


I'll continue to add content, right now there is merely a test blog post up, I'm still figuring everything out with the system, but it is so cool!

I will also be putting up decentralized BURST websites and such when I have time.


Here's a preview of the power of QORA decentralized internet, the future of the internet!

looking at the buy/sell on poloniex there is a ton of people dumping at just a couple satoshi higher. seems like not long term holders

As far as the situation on Poloniex, I don't see these small short term signs as anything to be worried about. The people will soon figure out what makes QORA great, and will invest accordingly.


For now, we're resolving the low participation in the network, and then releasing our QrowdFunds to get some promotion and development funds.


I'm a long-term thinker, so the short term issues are not nearly as dramatic to me as they might be to others. I will not give up on this project, and the team we have is quite skilled and trusted. This reason alone is enough for some people to invest, but I'll be helping to show many many more reasons very soon.


Take a deeper look at the roadmap I posted a few posts back, then come back with questions related to that and I'll gladly provide the answers for you.


Thank you for being part of the QORA community, and let it be known, that QORA isn't going anywhere! Thanks!

Burst replacing Qora then. is there development attention to both?

No, this is not even close to what is really happening. Nothing will 'replace' QORA. Not even QORA 2.0.

BURST is separate, but tied to QORA through the power of the Smart Contracts that both BURST and QORA have.


QORA will remain QORA always. There will be a change in the proof to make it a mined coin, along with likely a change in the total supply, as it will need to be higher to set up a new distribution model for the newly mined coins.


QORA will remain the decentralized internet that it was meant to be, with social networking and more features like real time person to person communications, which already function, but are currently only 1 person to 1 other person. We will be expanding on this.


QORA will be likely hosting a whole plethora of different websites, both for the projects related and beyond. QORA doesn't discriminate, anyone is welcome to host their site for FREE (or basically free) on a totally unhackable system, that cannot be taken down. Tell me this isn't appealing.


I'm not sure where you get the idea that BURST will take over QORA, that's really far from what was actually mentioned. For all intents and purposes, QORA is totally unique, and all it needs is a little love, which I intend to help give it. So that it can be among the big players where it should be.

When an asset says 40% to be released does that mean there is only 40% value left per share purchased?

thanks

If you're talking about the assets in which I have control, when I say that, what I mean is this...

Say an asset has 1,000,000 total shares. The first release of the asset released 20% or 200,000 shares. This asset then had a second release that was 20%, then a 3rd. This would leave the asset with '40% left to be released' in the future.


This doesn't keep anyone from trading the asset on the Asset Exchange, it simply means that right at this point, 60% of the asset is 100% of the payout. 40% of the TOTAL shares the asset has remaining, are likely to be released at a later date.


What I personally do, is do a release, wait a while, let the market decide the value of the asset, then do another release somewhere in the line of the market's decided value down the road.


This also gives the chance for the asset to grow in terms of what backs it, before releasing more shares to the public, and also gives a good idea of what the public believes the asset to be worth.



I will be putting up statistics pages for all of the assets I manage, that will have the approximate APR, ROI, etc. This shall be done as soon as possible.

For now, the BSILVER asset in particular, has a detail page located at http://burstcoin.online which has pictures, and other information about the asset, and will be updated regularly until I can get some scripts to do auto calculations written.

Thanks!

2.1B coins total and 1B has already been mined... hmmm...


Before I invest in this, any reason this coin should appreciate in price? What's the use for this?


The only reason do want to put some BTC in it is because I want to take a risk getting into something cheap (currently ~60 sats)

There are many reasons for mining, trading and holding burst, most of which have been extensively discussed in other threads and the burst-team forum, however one of the most impressive feats of this coin is its adoption rate which has been growing steadily from the beginning of the year and at an even faster rate since may. and I will give you some stats to back that up:

windows wallet downloads from 2016-06-01 to 2016-08-29: 7656
windows wallet downloads from 2016-01-01 to 2016-05-31: 1729

Number of full nodes: 2027
Number of wallets: 36409
Number of transactions: 3530733
Number of trades on Burst decentralised asset exchange: 7845
Number of users registered on http://forums.burst-team.us:4567 : +1000 (I stopped counting after 1000 was reached)

http://forums.burst-team.us:4567/ unique visitors: 2067

Network hash rate: averaging +10PB



Your statistics are greatly appreciated!

The above, plus this...

BURST to develop a truly decentralized coin exchange portal, which at first won't be great for day trading, but we will likely carve a nice niche listing active coins that didn't have the volume to stay listed on 'typical' exchanges.

Also, BURST and extended BURSTKORE teams are working on several business models which will all be fully decentralized, if not released that way. These services will provide many useful things to the people who use them, in a totally unhackable fashion.

BURST will be doing a PR campaign in which it will challenge the world to hack one of its Smart Contracts, with over 100 Million BURST coins in it, donated partially from myself, and partially from other true BURSTcoin believers.


BURST to release the 'Decentralize Your World' campaign, in which it will show the benefits of decentralization on a completely attack vector free system.

There will be companies built on top of BURST in multiple ways, from email to Decentralized person to person Marketplace (which is already in existence, but will have a nicer UI, support team for resolution of issues that decentralized automated escrow that BURST has can't take care of, and much more.)


We are very serious about our project, and so are the members of the world wide team of professionals that are dedicated to the project.


We are pitching a few of our company ideas to Angel Investors soon too, as well as starting assets and crowdfunds to get more funding for development and promotion. Promotion being the key thing we haven't had a ton of funding for until more recently.

Since the coin was released without IPO, or premine, every coin that the team has was either bought, mined, or acquired by offering a service on BURST chain, or a mining pool.


We believe this is the right way to do things. This leads to more trust, and leads to the understanding that the people working on the project, are ones who truly believe in it. Which also leads to more trust.


The team as it sits is diverse, extremely intelligent, and extremely capable. There is nothing stopping us from providing a truly world-class solution to multiple problems that we see both inside and outside the crypto space.


The Smart Contracts that BURST has, are more secure, and more rigorously tested than the ones that ETH bring to the table, and it is my wholehearted belief that the Smart Contract system that BURST has will be bringing some truly revolutionary things to the table, such as some of the world firsts that have already been completed...

1. FIRST coin to have Smart Contracts period.

2. FIRST coin to have decentralized automated lottery bulit on the chain

3. FIRST coin to do a direct cross-blockchain transfer with QORA (of which I have now also taken over leadership of the team for QORA)

4. FIRST coin to be actually MINED via hard drive space, utilizing almost no electricity, and securing the chain better than PoW traditional, and of course better than PoS.


These things above are not widely known, and we're working on that. Once this comes to the minds of the people, they research the coin, and find out that everything I have always said was true, see how things are going now, the massive uptick in users, and various statistics all in BURST's favor... you'll see the sleeping giant come awake, at this point the news outlets will pick up stories on BURST free of charge.

Until that point, we're getting more PR out there, and making sure people notice the coin that innovated so many world firsts that others are now trying to claim as their own, and BURST will get mention when Smart Contracts are mentioned, as being the FIRST to have them working, over a year before ETH did.


Thanks everyone, and a prosperous future for BURST!

There is no way to 100% be sure that the assets are not scams, however, I personally do my best to provide both pictures, and even videos upon request, of the hardware that I run for the assets I run.

Also, not being anonymous does help with trust. Also, trust ratings here on the forums help too.

Another thing, one asset that I manage personally, has been running almost as long as BURST has, and has never missed a single payout. This could be a good indication that the asset has a legitimate backing, and is not some sort of ponzi.

I will continue to provide any and all proof pictures, videos, live streams, or whatever people request to prove the backing of the assets that can be proven in such a way.


Other assets are generally proven by testing them, give the asset issuer a chance, and see what happens type thing. This is a much less 'secure' way of going about this, in my opinion, which is why I chose the other route, in 'actually proving' what I say is backing the assets.


This being said, I'm working on acquiring more power at a couple of my locations which will power all of the new GPUs I'm sitting here looking at, which are currently new in box on my floor. These should all be up and running within a week, for BSILVER asset.

I will continue to post pictures of the silver as it arrives, as well. The pictures of the mining hardware will go up this week, whether I have them in mining systems or not, as well as the 8 new rack servers that just arrived at my location.



The general rule still sits, never invest more than you can afford to lose, but in my case, I like to make sure this isn't a worry (loss) due to the way assets I run are started, run, and paid attention to.

Now i don't have any connections when trying to load a new wallet

You have no connections for QORA? There was a list of nodes posted a while back, there should be plenty of connections now, a lot more people have been firing up their wallets for forging.


I am going to be asking polo to stop forging here soon, but in all reality that won't make much of a difference here soon, when we change the proof in QORA. Then it will be a mined coin as well.


QORA 2.0 will be a totally new system that will be 'minted' via minting accounts in a totally new way of looking at coin mining and running a decentralized network.


Here's the the future of QORA!





Also, those with questions about BURST, you can come to BURST's forum and post your questions there, and we'll give you the answers you're needing.

I would say you can solo mine if you have 20TB or more, and you should do pretty well. Anything less than that I would go with a pool. We have multiple pools available. BURST has one of the strongest networks of any altcoin, with over 2000 active nodes.
628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Qora | POS | Assets | Names | Polls | Automated Transactions | Social Network on: August 29, 2016, 07:33:16 PM
It sure has great plans ahead. This is gonna be a start of something big . Hopefully 2.0 has plan to improve its forging incentive like a supernode ala NEM or something to attract .

There will be no forging in 2.0, and soon I'm thinking we're going to change the forging on 1.0 as well, making it also a mined system. The two systems will be completely different but both mined, we're doing away with PoS I believe, but at the same time we're going to provide a couple mining styles that use the same amount of power or a tiny tiny bit more than PoS to provide VASTLY superior security and solve all issues with PoS and PoW that exist now.

We believe that PoW type mining is a better solution, but the power consumption is an issue, so we're resolving these issues, one algo will likely be similar to BURST, there will be another that is a completely new type of system that no other coin has ever done. Completely written from the ground up. I'm really excited about this because it will also provide a completely new type of trade market as well, in the buying and selling of mining-enabled accounts.

This way, the people who stake QORA because they don't have big miners, can continue to be involved, the process will just change a little, that's all. Smiley

Can you say more on the non burst algo? I know burst is pc friendly but its gonna be a poslike system? I have sent ya an inbox msg crowetic. please check it out and respond Cheesy

What I know of the PoS Like system will not have the flaws that exist with PoS.
 Smiley

The new algo will be able to be mined on phones, and any device really, and still remain viable on whichever device, since the mining will not be based on POWER, but instead accounts. So the more systems you have with a mining account, the more you'll be able to mine.

We're still working out a few of the details as far as what happens when new mining accounts are released, etc. But we believe it will be a great system. It will be memory hard mining, won't use traditional PoW but once in a while for a specific purpose. I'll get all of the details put into a white paper for people to check out.

It will be botnet proof, unlike any other algo, via a new specialized captcha system in development.

I personally think it will be really cool.

It will be any exchange qora for qora2? Qora(1) will be worth anything?

Yes, there will be capability to trade QORA for QORA 2, but QORA will still be actively worked on as well, changing the algo, and using it as a portal to poloniex through ACCT, as well as hosting sites and WebRTC. It will also be used for more in the future. Both coins will have their uses. QORA 2 will not have all of the same features as QORA 1, so QORA 1 will still remain relevant. All trading can happen via ACCT.

The 2.0 proof should be considered more 'minting' as opposed to mining, since it will be something a bit different. From now on I will refer to the process as 'minting' for the QORA 2.0 proof.

how to use the bootstrap? i extracted it to roaming folder data and it started syncing from scratch....

It is my understanding that the Windows wallet has a certain issue. But it seems all wallets don't like it if you don't close the wallet with file-quit, and let it close out like it should. Seems to corrupt the db if not done, and makes you resync.


The way that I've personally resolved this, is by using the 'universal wallet', then also downloading the data folder that I zipped up, and putting it into the extracted folder for the universal wallet. You can think of the universal wallet as a 'mobile' wallet, meaning the files are contained within that directory, and not put to the %appdata% global variable folder. So with the universal wallet, you place the extracted data folder into the QORA extracted universal wallet folder, then run (on windows) 'run.bat', the wallet will launch and it will launch in a cmd window you can watch. Do not close this window, but instead always close with file-quit on the UI.

Using the universal wallet and the data folder that I uploaded, you should not keep having these issues, given you closing the wallet always with file-quit. (which we're going to be resolving the root cause, these are just some workarounds for now.)


Thanks!

What i did that fixed it was i installed the qora (Qora-v0.26.0.exe) and then i extracted the data.zip to both the folders named 'data' and 'dataBak'. The wallet parsed the chain and now I am at the same block as the block explorer here http://216.126.198.26:9090/index/blockexplorer.html ready to transfer some coins i bought and start helping the network.

Awesome, glad you were able to resolve it. Smiley

[ANNouncement] - QORA 2.0 idea map, as well as some information about what we're thinking

You can find a downloadable copy of this roadmap here - (it will likely be reworked into two roadmaps, if we proceed with two coins as we're thinking) - https://cloud.crowetic.com/s/GVv7kzMzKZQH54w

QORA roadmap - first draft 8.15.2016 – crowetic

QORA as it sits-

The current version of QORA has many features that people don’t even know about, and has amazing technology that is for the most part going unused…

We are going to be reworking the QORA UI in many ways, both adding the useful features in easier to find locations, and also providing new registered names on QORA with functioning sites and web applications.

The main issue with QORA as it sits now stems from a few different things… One, would be some remaining issues with the wallet, that we are having the dev team take a look at. Anyone who is experiencing wallet issues, please post them on Bitcointalk forums, and we will give them to the dev team to have them taken care of.

The coin is extremely functional, and we will be adding to the functionality, by hosting multiple websites and applications for various purposes.

We will be releasing new UI’s and also videos explaining how things are done and what can be done with the current version of QORA.

I do not believe that a lack of features is the reason that the QORA community isn’t as large as it should be… I believe it is the fact that the UI isn’t super simple to figure out, and the features are generally pretty difficult to locate and figure out. This will be improved upon.

There will be additions of forums, blogs, websites, web applications, and many more social networking type setups, including decentralized WebRTC communications based on QORA’s WebRTC.

We will be making use of QORA’s decentralized hosting and web stuff, to host a vast array of services for the people of the community to take advantage of. This could include news sites, blogs, company websites, forums, and encrypted person to person communications in real-time, and more.

Focus on Smart Contracts, and namely QrowdFund with some additions of new features and the ability to be funded via multiple different coins directly in a decentralized way.

Current QORA will function after QORA 2.0 is in place, as a gateway to traditional exchanges, and also of course, its current functionality, which will be made more use of. Any remaining issues with the wallet will be fixed, and new UI (web based) will be released. Multiple new web applications will be designed, and QORA hosting will be made more use of via promotion and services helping people get their sites hosted in the decentralized QORA setup.


QORA Crowdfund campaign –


QORA has an amazing system unlike anything else available in the crypto space, and it was all done by developers giving their heart and soul to the project. We believe this is something that warrants assistance in the form of coin from the community.

We also believe that CrowdFunding (or QrowdFunding as it is referred to in QORA) is the future of how projects and ideas for development and more will be funded. It is a way to tell how the community feels on a subject, by allowing them to contribute their coin to said subject. It is also a way to continue forward with the funding needed to hire the people that will be needed for various aspects of the venture, without having to deal with VC companies and things of that nature, that may end up wanting too much control over a given project.

So, the plan is to start multiple CrowdFund attempts, in various aspects of current and future development, promotion, graphic design and web design, and any various projects developed around, on, or for QORA, including businesses and their platforms.

The CrowdFunds will run 8 weeks, and will seek amounts varying from 50 million to 250 million QORA depending on which subject. We hope this will spur the community to help fund the projects and get QORA to the plane that everyone who supports it knows it can be.

The QORA QrowdFund campaign will be launched near the same time as this QORA roadmap is launched. We hope to see much participation in helping get QORA to where it needs to be, by donating your coin to help the development and promotion.



QORA 2.0 ideas

There are many  ideas regarding the future of QORA, and we’re still making changes to the overall plan, and discussing what everyone in the team feels is the most important, etc… However, this is one of the potential directions for QORA…



QORA 2.0 – NEW CHAIN – New unique algorithm for PoW style mining with low power usage –

One of the ideas for the future, is to make QORA 2.0 a new chain. This new chain would be a version of QORA that has certain features removed in order to keep blockchain bloat down, and avoid redundancy on services, still giving QORA original some unique features, keeping it a viable choice to be used.

The new chain, would be a mined coin based on a completely different idea that has never been done before. Without getting into too many details, the system would be one that allows for any device to mine at the same speed as any other, with an account based system.

The account based system, would release a set amount of ‘mining accounts’, which would all mine at the same rate. The accounts could be given out to people who donate a set amount of QORA original to a specific location. The genesis block would release a set number of mining accounts which could be auctioned or sold to the people wanting an account using original QORA. This would give original QORA holders the exclusive on obtaining one of the rare new mining accounts on the new chain. Making QORA 1.0 a gateway to QORA 2.0, thus giving QORA 1.0 yet another function.

The system would open the door to having a fully viable phone mining operation, since any mining account will mint coins at the same speeds. The system will be highly memory based, and use PoW infrequently just to verify things. It will be an extremely low-powered algorithm, making the chain extremely green to use.

New mining accounts would be generated every so often, and there would be a system in place to spread out those accounts, via a marketplace that specializes in the buying and selling of mining accounts. This new system would open the door for a ‘mining trade’ room, where users could buy and sell mining accounts on the open market.


Multiple-Chain-Communication-Protocol –

Another idea moving forward, is a multi-chain structure, however, it would be unlike current sidechain setups, in the way that each chain will remain individual and will not need to be tied to another, removing yet another point of failure from the equation. The way this multi-chain setup would work, is through a protocol that is in design currently, which is based on the AT system (Smart Contracts in QORA and BURST) by CIYAM developers (www.ciyam.org/at). The multiple chain system, would be actually individual chains, but with the same functionality as a sidechain system, and more. Some of the benefits would be…

-Sharing services across blockchains
-Transfer of value across blockchains
-Communication directly with BTC and other coins with new BTC core version with ClockTimeVerify, without the coins having to add anything at all. The protocol in development will allow for this communication, without the need for anything else.
-Smart Contract run decentralized multi-chain collaboration system for building services and businesses on fully decentralized platform


Decentralized P2P trade portal-

Using the protocol mentioned above, a decentralized portal is in development, and should be coming out in alpha stages in the next month. Proving concept of decentralized portal with Smart Contract system that QORA and BURST already have. This will allow for everything above, and more, including Automated Decentralized Bidding system for the marketplace on BURST and new mining account market, and also an Automated Decentralized Advertisement purchase and distribution network. The Ad network would allow people to purchase ad space on various web locations in an automated fashion, without any central authority, could potentially also be setup in an auction style way, in which the highest bidder gets the advertising space for sale.

The decentralized portal in development will not be directly correlated to QORA (or BURST), yet it will include both of these coins due to the fact that they already contain the AT system. Though, the development of the portal will be done with QORA and BURST in mind, and additions will be made to each UI for more functionality inside the portal, and services and money transfers can happen between the AT enabled coins already. The development here will be used to benefit all AT enabled coins, and will make use of non-AT enabled coins as well.


Decentralized File Storage system made in a unique way –

There will be another chain (or potentially the same chain with this as an addition) that will contain a decentralized file storage system. This system will be done in a way that no other has been. The chain itself will not be the place the files are stored, only the hashes of the files will be stored on the chain itself. An attached service will be provided that allows for data storage, and uses the mentions on the chain of the hashes to allow for the system to locate the files.

Files will be broken up after being encrypted, so that no one user will ever be able to see the files that they are hosting for the network. Only the person who placed the files there, or a share key they could potentially generate for public view, would allow for a user to see the files. Only the person who placed the files there or their sharing partner would know how to not only put the files back together, but also decrypt them. This eliminates the worry of the people hosting the files, just in case someone doesn’t follow the rules of the system, and uploads something that isn’t legal.

The system would also allow for ‘full nodes’ that would host all files, and get a larger income from this, like a file hosting service. Say the system had determined that a certain file was too old, and didn’t want every node to have to host it anymore… That is when the ‘full node’ would take the file, and allow the other ‘partial nodes’ not to have to store the entire file any longer, or their portion of it as it were. This could open the door for a business model built on top of this, that would allow ‘full node’ operators to provide access to older or potentially even deleted files* (*this isn’t for sure) on the network for a fee, so that even files that the network has determined to be ‘too old’, could still be acquired if need be.

Combining the power of QORA web hosting, and QORA 2.0 decentralized storage, and the ability to accept BTC and other altcoin payments directly, it opens the door for various business models to be built in a fully decentralized way. Service providers like Web Designers, could offer their services for design, on the network, and also provide FREE decentralized hosting via the QORA net, so that even users who aren’t familiar with design, and don’t have a lot of money for hosting, could have the most secure of all websites, hosted on a decentralized platform.

No more hacking of websites would be possible using the decentralized hosting, no more loss of files due to centralized server hacking on services like Dropbox and such would be possible via the decentralized file storage.

System would run in a green, power efficient way with the other algorithm in development (nearly complete) mentioned above.


QORA/QORA 2.0/BURST

The internet revisited – QORAnet –

The services provided on QORA Original and QORA 2.0 will lead the way in making the fully decentralized internet. With a whole new model on how people understand getting paid for services, and hosting of files and websites. There is really no limit to the power of the Smart Contract system that QORA and BURST have, and we look to prove as many use cases for this as possible, making as much use of the system as we can, and proving everything we’re saying with working demos.

Hack-proof services can and will be offered. Gone will be the days of wondering if your security is up to par, and having to worry if you’re going to have a hack on your business and its services, potentially harming your customers or their data.

Businesses can provide consulting or hosting services using QORA and the protocol for transferring value and services decentralized, to run a plethora of extremely secure services that will not have to be constantly revised and checked for security. Things hosted within QORA are secure by nature, running in a decentralized way, not vulnerable to DDOS attacks or the like, and not able to be gotten into such the way that traditional websites and services are.

Simple to use UIs for everything will provide all of these services in a simple to use way to gain use by the general public. There will be advertising campaigns done, and many PR releases about the current and future services being offered, that will be sent as many places as possible.


BURST/QORA – Smart Contract Hacker Challenge PR campaign –


BURST And QORA will be announcing a challenge to the world soon as well, regarding the security of the Smart Contract system they share. In this challenge, BURST will initiate a CF attempt, using the same system that QrowdFund uses on QORA. This CrowdFund attempt will be funded with 50 million BURST in one, and 100 million BURST in another.

The two CrowdFunds will run for 4-6 weeks, giving the world a chance to attempt to hack the funds from the account. The CrowdFunds will be setup to do both a successful and a non-successful CrowdFund attempt. The successful one will be paid out to the starting address, and the unsuccessful will be refunded automatically by the Smart Contract, to the people who participated.

BURST/QORA team leader, crowetic, will be demonstrating his trust in the Smart Contract system, by putting up 25-50 Million BURST of his own funds into the CrowdFunds. The Hacker challenge will be announced via multiple news outlets, and will have a goal of proving the viability of Smart Contracts as a whole, and also proving the security of the AT Smart Contract system used by BURST and QORA. It will be mentioned that BURST and QORA share the Smart Contract setup, and that the same setup will also be used in a new Blockchain service, a decentralized coin exchange.

The hopes here, is to prove the security of the Smart Contract system, while at the same time announcing what the same system will be used for in the future, gaining both following of people and potential users of the platform and the coins, and hopefully raising the coins’ marketcaps as well, giving the ability to do larger and larger projects based within the coins.


Comments –

We are still making decisions on the specifics of how exactly everything will go, but we have a general idea of what we would like it to look like overall. The network of chains that can all share services, and value, including BTC, for a plethora of decentralized secure services available both from within the team, and from others.
Businesses can be based on multiple aspects of the services and setup, and there are many unknown other features that will be realized and added to this setup in the future, allowing more and more functionality.

The world of Smart Contracts, of decentralization of the internet entirely, and of extreme security, is the world of QORA and BURST. The first two coins in the world ever able to do direct transfers with each other, now working together and with a much larger and stronger team, to get these services out to the people, to bring awareness of the facts that they were the FIRST to do so many things which aren’t even mentioned when people mention Smart Contracts…

The original innovators are looking to obtain their notoriety once again for being the ones to do these things first, that others are just now starting to do. Not only did we do it first, we have done it strongest, most secure, and best. This will all be demonstrated in the coming releases of the products and services we are working on.

QORA is the engine to make all of these things run. QORA 2.0 is the service platform to assist. QORA 1.0 can function as a gateway to the traditional exchanges (i.e. Poloniex) and also as an exclusive ‘members only’ way to acquire mining accounts on one of the multiple new chains in development.

Some of the new chains will not be coins, they will simply be blockchain based services. Some WILL be coins. This will all be announced in more detail in the near future.

QORA is here to stay, here to make everything you do on the internet, ACTUALLY secure. This is the direction we will go, the actions taken on the community side are their own, but we hope that the community sees merit in what we’re going to be doing, and would help us along the way by donating to the QrowdFund attempts.


Thank you for your time, and look forward to the coming announcements very soon! Hope to have the proof of concept done on the decentralized exchange by end of September. A lot of the things discussed here in this announcement/paper, are either being worked on, or ideas that could be done in a fairly short amount of time due to the development work already completed on QORA 1.0. This is all done by a team with a proven track record for innovation and developing tools that no one has seen before, all from the ground up. You can trust in the team, now with more leadership and promotional power, marketing, etc… to get the things they promise done, and continue leading the way in decentralized secure services, and platforms!

any cooperation about qora with other teams?

Yes, QORA and BURST are working closely together, as well as an additional team outside QORA and BURST, and the extended team of BURST, which we labeled BURSTKORE. There are many projects both in and around QORA that will include QORA by default.


We have multiple plans for QORA and QORA 2.0 (which I will be posting about in the roadmap here shortly.)


The best thing people can do for QORA right now, is keep their wallet up, with some coins, and forging. To keep network running while we discuss what the future is, and have the community help us come to a nice conclusion.


Thank you!

Great! It seems my efforts were not in vain!


I've just returned from an overnight stay at a friend's for their housewarming party, I'll prep the roadmap and release it shortly! Please keep your wallets open and forging! These are exciting times for QORA.


Thank you!

Hello everyone, I need a little assistance...

I've got an old XMR wallet, and the keys file, but I can't seem to get it to open in the new version...


I don't recall having a password, but every time I tried to load the wallet, it asked me for one... I tried every possible one that I could think of to no avail... but like I said, I didn't remember having to put a password on it, and I thought that if I had the keys file I would always be able to get into the wallet. So I backed that up.


Can anyone help me to recover the funds that are in this wallet? It isn't a ton, but it's something, that I was planning on saving for a long time, just wanted to make sure that I could still access it.


I would really appreciate any assistance with this, have always really liked XMR, would be sad if my little mined wallet from a few years back won't be able to do what I wanted for it.


Thanks!

The old qora.co.in website used to have a list of known stable peers that had been online for at least a week. You could add them to your wallet to help it sync. Putting a new list of peers on the new website would help the community.

http://qora.tech:9090 is up for a portal to QORA internet.


I'll likely add extra sites to this that will have all necessary information. Hopefully this new blockex being up will help polo.

Thanks for putting that site online. The new block explorer built into the wallet looks fantastic. The link to it should soon convince Poloniex to open withdrawals again.

http://qora.tech:9090/index/blockexplorer.html

Thanks, yes, this is my hope that this will be good enough for them to realize we're doing work on the coin, and to remove the hold they have.
638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Qora | POS | Assets | Names | Polls | Automated Transactions | Social Network on: August 27, 2016, 12:42:08 AM
Does Qora have a web wallet like blockchain.info or mynxt.info? Is one being planned?

There is a simple web wallet already in existence, a more advanced one will be built soon.


http://qora.tech:9090/webwallet is up, but this is just the start of what will be to come.



I'm looking to have a completely new web-based UI written for QORA. With full functionality just like BURST has. This shouldn't take TOO long to get accomplished.



I've sent the blockex on http://qora.tech:9090/index/blockexplorer.html to poloniex, hopefully they get back to me today or tomorrow and remove the hold so that we can release the QrowdFunds, or at least a few of them, and also the idea roadmap that I've written a few weeks ago!


Here's to the future of QORA!

So there is what chart are saying :



Huge compression of price level with strong accumulation sign, whale are accumulating your coin keeping it low, but the beast should be unlashed soon.
buy them cheap while they are, I am personnaly thinking very strongly to do so.

EDIT: maybe actual price is not going to be to best entry point in the future, you have to choose when to buy.

Now is the time to buy before the price starts rising. Well it has been rising the past few days but hasn't broken out as of yet. I think all that will change once the PR campaign starts. I will be buying all the way up to 100 sats and try and accumulate as much Burst as I can at these levels and invest it into the assets. One of my family members just purchased a nice amount of assets yesterday and is looking at buying a lot more next week.

Great. This is exactly what I'm doing. Also accumulating a lot more power for BSilver asset.

Just got 5 370 GPUs, and multiple 24core xeon servers, also 4 480s coming in, and multiple orders for silver. 

Actually have to get more power run to my place to run all the miners I'm building. LOL first world problems.

Also going to get a new office next week for more miners. Cheesy


I would say this asset should be one of the strongest on BURST within the next couple months, I'm very excited about it.

and http://burstcoin.online - will be updated regularly



8 servers arrived to my house lately, planning to use at least 2 of them as miners for the asset, they each have 4 hex core XEONs, and 128GB of RAM, I'll be equipping them with multiple HDDs, SSDs, and GPUs. Turning them into CPU/GPU/HDD miners for BSILVER asset.


Also, 5 AMD 370 GPUs arrived, as well as 1 480, I have 3 more 480s coming, as well as another S7 antminer SHA-256 which I will likely be dedicating to the asset as well.


another 1 oz bar of silver, and another 5 oz bar both arrived as well. Things are progressing nicely!
