Updating the ROKOS website for the coming release,
can now find all included cryptocurrencies on the website.

great work, thank you, i just managed to take the time, to buy one version 2 one a version 3 Rasperry and have already set up the PI2.
Even compiling our new Europecoin wallet was smooth and easy.
Looking forward the future with this project, especially for the coming ioT possibilities.
And i already began to organize the production, of a turnkey ready device for user-convenience.

have fun
Matthias

Awesome Matthias, glad the community likes and thanks for your feedback!

The new coming version got fully rewritten/redone New base more directly into debian jessie, new 1 click installs for software, and the
release will work on Raspberry Pi zero, Pi 2 and Pi 3 alike and other things like OB and the new cryptocurrencies.

It will come with a root and a pi user account to increase its security, (the pi/root shared account from raspbian and previous ROKOS is not the best way to set up the accounts for security) hence it now comes with independent accounts for configurations(root) and use(pi user), among other surprises, should be released in the coming week or days.

I've been running the bitcoin core 12.0 on bananapi pro for several weeks now - its great!

every other day or so the bitcoin client crashes and I have to manually restart it.   Is there a way to setup a script to monitor whether bitcoind is running and if not, re-spawn it?

separately,  can you post instructions on how to upgrade to 0.12.1 client?

thanks!

Very glad to hear, there are some tips on past pages,
like cron to purge ram every X time or bitcoin.conf dbcache parameter,
even so, will add them to the TUTORIALS over git and later on to the website, please check them now and then for updates

also, you can use this method for the 0.12.1 upgrade:

That's excellent news.

We're very happy to be a part of this project. We think it's definitely one for the future.

Did these altcoins notice an increase in node count after Rokos began supporting them?

[OKtoshi]

Did these altcoins notice an increase in node count after Rokos began supporting them?

Ive certainly been noticing via users feedback with questions/pics/shares/mails/socialnetworks/downloads on different communities
and by checking the OK network.

So far Rokos has more than 2000+ downloads since v2 and counting, I hope other communities can share their feedback
as well, Will be awesome to know and see the feedback they're getting, this week/weekend ROKOS v6 is getting released,
so the new integrated currencies have a perfect opportunity to keep records and watch the changes on node counts Rokos brings
to their projects. very nice question, welcome to the Rokos Flavors thread.

[OKtoshi]

Thank you to GAMEdev for your commit to the ROKOS website github (OpenSource Project)

The commit involved adding links to the websites for all the permanent integrated currencies.
The commit has been accepted and merged, and site upgraded accordingly,
So now every new user that wants to check more info about the cryptocurrencies or added tech like OB
can access their websites directly from the ROKOS site.

Thanks for your feedback and support.

I've followed the instructions closely at the link provided but when I run ./configure with or without the attributes it complains every time about libdb_cxx headers missing ....   

I've downloaded, compliled, and installed the BerkeleyDB.4.8 per the instructions as well as exported path and set the links to no avail.

Is there a guide specific to BananaPi Pro by chance to upgrade from 0.12.0 to 0.12.1?

Thanks

Thanks for your feedback, I will work on it and do direct tests on the bananapi to check the differences and make the proper tutorial for the banana.

I should share you an update on it this week, and add the proper tutorial to the github.

What is ROKOS?
http://rokos.space

[cryptonit]

at home im testing

a 88€ windows 10 tablet with 2 GB ram
    versus
a raspi2 with rokos with 1 GB ram

i have to say bang for the buck
the cheap tablet beat a raspi2 solution always

and because of the 2gb ram u can run more wallets
and once u stop ur crypto hobby staking coins with low power devices

u can give it ur kids or grandkids as youtube or playing games device....

to make a rokos raspi a winner here i think it need to provide added value
to counter the tablet have
full windows 10
7" touchscreen
2GB ram
wlan bluetooth OTG USB


what are ur plans to make rokos win such a comparison
some IoT usecases in sight? some added value a windows 10 tablet cant provide
some better suited hardware as base

my personal opinion is i am OS neutral i dont care if linux android windows is running
i care what can i do with a device if it fullfil my usecases and if i get some extra added value

dont see this as negative feedback
by far not

DMD Diamond is proud to have a permanent rokos flavors slot

all i want is a open minded view on low power staking solutions
and what can be done to improve the added value and position of rokos

To me this is more about "accessibility" to the end user.
A win 10 tablet is cost prohibitive to the majority of the world, a raspberry pi is not & this is why we were extremely eager to get involved with this project.
Also, this is the start of this project and that means there are opportunities and potential ahead, which is a fantastic position to be in.

Correct, new devices like the coming PINE64+ have very similar specs to that win 10 tablet, and it only costs $29 USD,
should arrive in the next month, will be very nice to do testing and vs comparisons with the tablet, thanks a lot for the feedback and info.
New ROKOS got rewritten as well comes with even better performance, will be releasing it over the weekend or starts of the week, as
still doing some final integration and testing, so far so good, very excited with this coming one, thanks to every integrated project and users.

29$
without case
without storage (micro-SD)
without power supply
without touchscreen

still hard to beat a sub 100$ windows 10 tablet with 2 gb ram
case touchscreen 16 gb internal storage


i think rokos should try give his IoT OS added value
some IoT services not only hosting cryptocoin wallets

include openbazar was a nice idea
but there still more great ideas

Tablet = not IoT
Pi, etc devices =  IoT

Try keeping a tablet 24/7 and let me know how long the battery lasts, same way IoT devices can be
spawn or applied as Physical nodes where you wouldnt leave a tablet, same way can be applied to
use web tech and make your IoT device into a Web Server, (try installing apache or ISS over the tablet) or IPFS, etc...

The tablet gives no potential to developers other than having a wallet (like on android)
where the IoT devices are like Swiss Knifes for users and developers, and only the imagination is limit to what can create/achieve.

Pi are getting used even as physical nodes under aluminum cases on different zones, people use IoT devices with sensors as well
among a lot of different uses tablets can not provide, and can not be compared vs IoT devices, as works on real different ways.

ROKOS will continue to evolve as we go on, its goal is to become the base for new users/developers that want to start deploying/creating applications/uses with it. So can be used from non tech users to tech/dev users alike, where a tablet can not provide/compare VS IOT tech.

Ty for your feedback.

Hey Oksothi is the Pine64 ready for rokos? 

I just receive mine and want to run rokos on it
