[ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (decentralized blockexplorer coming)

[minerpage]

I wonder how streamium is going to generate profit.

Their github page announces it as "Decentralized trustless video streaming using bitcoin payment channels."
https://github.com/streamium/streamium

Also: from the autor website: "Streamium: A proof-of-concept trustless decentralized solution for streaming video via WebRTC by establishing a payment channel between the service provider and the consumer."

And another site using bitcoins to unlock content: https://popchest.com/

A combination of both is what I'm interested in as an application. One of the (many) applications running on the SPR Service Node Network and contributing value (residual income) in addition to the SPR rewards

I had a similar error last year when my pc's time was off by an hour or so. (when it didn't switch to summertime for some reason)

Please check that your system clock has the right time set, or else the wallet will complain when there is a large difference between current timestamp (broadcast by your peers) and your system time.

That should fix it.

EDIT, or maybe it's something else, because such an error would normally lead to such an alert:

Code:

"errors" : "Warning: Please check that your computer's date and time are correct! If your clock is wrong Spreadcoin will not work properly."

well he does have a time issue:

"timeoffset" : -6

Yes that would be awesome, but also a ton of work.

But we have time!

[georgem]

well he does have a time issue:

"timeoffset" : -6

True, but that is only a very minor timeoffset.

As far as I know, this timeoffset is measured in seconds.

Code:

timeoffset: Seconds of difference between this node's "wall clock time" and the median reported by our network peers.

I regularly see time offsets like that on my nodes and on DASH masternodes and it has never caused me a problem before.  I'm not sure at what point a time offset does become a problem though!

Yes that would be awesome, but also a ton of work.

I would take on that project as soon as there is an API

Has anybody tried this:

Time is/was synced with seconds difference to GMT
After deleting the chain it started syncing and got stuck at "9 weeks ago"
Then I copy&pasted the chain from synced PC, started client - et voila it went in sync

CCEDK is a danish bitcoin exchange that has existed for the last 3 years or so... ill order a card in a few days and have a look at it

Same for Service Node?

I reckon a Pi 2 would run bitcoind and spreadcoind simultaneously with no problem.

Question...will a service node be able to be on different devices to a bitcoind node?

Hello - I would like to tinker with putting a node on my Rpi2 - is there a good tutorial on how to do this?

Hiya

No tutorial yet but I just used a Wheezy image from the RPI web site (remembering to expand the partition to maximum in raspi-config) and followed these instructions:

http://spreadcointalk.org/index.php?topic=710.0

Worked perfectly but you need to set permissions on the spreadcoin data folder to be writeable by the Pi account otherwise you get a file not found error.  It took over 2 hours to compile on the old Pi so I'd be interested to know is the RPI2 is 6 times as fast like they claim

Not sure if you'll need a swap file on the RPI2 but you definitely need one on the 1st gen.

EDIT:  The image takes up 4GB so you need a bigger card even though the blockchain is <400MB

Ok very cool - i will try to tinker with it this weekend... Do you know if the spreadcoin miner will work on the Rpi2?  Can it be converted somehow to mine?  I guess it would be like a FPGA?  Just curious.

I reckon the only way you could mine with a RPI2 is to setgenerate true (or gen=1 in spreadcoin.conf) although I think you'd be looking at 6 months between blocks

What will be with masternodes in future? Does somebody want  to implement it to this coin?

Yes.

Road map is here

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1QRZskvS6ekYSofsM5WsTQB3-gtHb2KCIymL90eqx_mQ/edit#slide=id.p

An updated road map is due out next week.  A few developments being discussed at the moment (sorry about that, Slack is both good for development discussions and bad for community engagement).

Thanks  for that update , mate. Its important info to me
