Nice BTC mining update from Gavin:

Head first mining

https://github.com/bitcoinclassic/bitcoinclassic/pull/152

[defunctec]

Syscoin goes from $300k marketcap to $3m marketcap in less than a few months. Gets lots of free publicity.

Not sure why.

Services include:

Alias reservation, ownership & exchange
Data storage
Digital document storage, ownership & exchange
Distributed marketplate & exchange
Digital Services Provider marketplace & platform
Digital Asset Creation and Management (alpha)
(soon) Escrow
(soon) Distributed gaming
(soon) Distributed elections and polls
(soon) Distributed encrypted communication & shared content storage

Could have something to do with it.

Cheers

Graham

This is my problem with the development of spreadcoin. By the time georgem has released SN's some other coin will already have solved the problem.

Decentralized blockexplorer is awesome and big data is very exciting. I just have a feeling other coins will beat us to the punch.

That's the way it has always been in technology. There is always someone first, but the goal is the be the loudest. Bill Gates actually purchased MS-Dos from another software company and made a TON of money off of it.  Some other company developed the OS and he still managed to come out on top.

To be serious players today, you need to provide a platform or suit of utilities based on blockchain that can empower others to build DAPPs. If you can't empower others to build DAPPS, you will only be valued as "proof of concept" player, and there are 10s and 100s of players at this level.

These things were invented here first.  We have published lots of evidence .  anyone tries to beat us to it is just contributing code to our project and doing proof of concept on our behalf.

What things? Sorry for my ignorance but I'm new to spreadcoin and haven't seen much about this type of thing beyond decentralized block explorer. What else is being worked on?

Hey, welcome.

Pull up a chair, get some SPR from spreadcointalk giveaway.

The short-term, medium-term and long-term agenda:

...

* Decentralised search engine
* Decentralised explorer for any coin
* Automated Escrow (CLTV and the new zero knowledge verification)
* Big Bitcoin Data
* Decentralised Exchange
* Decentralised Coinbase type accounts (many months before Dash published anything to do with something sort of similar)
* Instant Bitcoin Transactions (if we can figure out the decentralized exchange and instant locking via servicenodes)

Some level of outreach via Azure would have the potential to help speed up these developments.

Plus, looks like decentralized pools on ServiceNodes, which is really interesting.

I will be creating a new thread about SPR's Services over the next few days.

This will be to collect everything we've been talking about over the past year and what we've narrowed down our core objectives over the short-medium-long terms

This is where we started:

I'd like to continue with this thread, but I'd prefer to open a self-moderated version.

Cool, look forward to reading it.

Would there be a way possible for others to build services on top of service nodes while still keeping everything kosher in terms of decentralization?

Doesn't Azure allow people to build on top of pre-existing platforms?

Thanks for reminding me that we did actually have an API as one of our medium term goals, specifically for this type of thing.

Big Bitcoin Data:

This is an interesting interview about 5G.

One of the big expected benefits of 5G is mobile data and plenty of it. But the networks will still have trouble identifying bitcoin data transactions without nodes.

http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000500131

When we wrote the whitepaper last year we had no reference points to review 5G. We knew mobile data was going to be a big benefit, but looking at this we are 100% in the zone with Big Bitcoin Data.

2017-2020. Hopefully we will have POBN before the earlier estimate of 5g's emergence.

I wonder how much physical infrastructure they have to improve to enable the network to expand in the way they say it will.

Anyways, sounds like data will be for the taking everywhere!

I've been keeping very close tabs on crypto + torrent projects, details here

The technology is getting closer to being plug and play. This opens up the possibility of enabling ServiceNodes to run legal torrents with operators distributing (relay directly from movie houses) content locally and sharing in pay-per-view revenues paid by users to rights holders.

For example, Netflix is just one big ServiceNode. We could have thousands of nodes distributing content locally. So, why not?

If you want SpreadCoin SN to do so many things, you need to drastically increase the Dev capacity. No point keep adding features to the plan but no beta to show. Maybe you should work with multiple Coins, each realize one big feature.

If you want SpreadCoin SN to do so many things, you need to drastically increase the Dev capacity. No point keep adding features to the plan but no beta to show. Maybe you should work with multiple Coins, each realize one big feature.

There is a catch 22 with this.

If you take a look at the first year of Dash (when it was called Darkcoin), we tried to get additional dev support in the early stages. People kept saying the same thing, along the lines of - 'the project is too speculative and its too early'.  Once the price was established, the numbers keen to work on Dash increased and now there is a big team working behind the scenes.

So, your point is valid, but like I said its a catch 22 situation. We are laying out our future plans, so people can choose to join the effort, either independently or as part of the dev team when they wish.

But experience has shown that people will only feel confident to join once they see technical and price progress. We know this is the case as we have several people interested and who want to participate, when the time is right. That timing is going to be influenced by the next release and some other non-technical stuff being looked at.
