[ANN][SHIFT] The New Web | IPFS/Phantom | ShiftNrg.org Hosted Decentralized!

[hashingturtle]

Hi everyone who loves SHIFT. I tweeted out an interesting thought today. Retweet and comment on this post to get the message out and bring in new users to SHIFT.

If the $ETH blockchain forks, it would make $SHF the oldest running unmodified ethereum project based blockchain.

If $ETH forks, it's because of  a vulnerability in the code. Why would 'unmodified' be a good thing?

[Tmdz]

The vulnerability was in the DAO and not the native eth code.

When it comes to Solidity, why don't you change the name? s/\b(Shi)f(\w)\b/$1$2/

I do not agree. There are several languages that are open for exploits, it depends on the coder (http://insecure.org/stf/smashstack.html). What i do agree about, and there are several protections against this in compilers (gcc for instance with stack protection) is that solidity should throw a warning when unsafe code compiles. That is up to ethereum to fix, especially since smart contracts may deal with alot of money.

UPDATE JUL 01: PHANTOM ALPHA RELEASED



We are incredibly pleased to announce PHANTOM 1.1a & SHIFTHUB 0.1a.

This release covers our long awaited Phantom & Shifthub Alpha versions, along with our first
flagship application, a new wallet interface accessed via ShiftHub.

To start using Phantom, simply download the bundle, extract and run Phantom.cmd. This will
launch the Phantom engine, which you can access via ShiftHub  in your local browser by clicking
the newly created icon in your system tray.

Should you have any problems starting or accessing your funds please let us know either here or
in our slack.

We hope this release furthers understanding of our vision among the community, as this is only
the beginning. Future releases expand on this technology, where you locally access Phantom in
a secure manner and employ ShiftHub for all the things outlined in previous posts.

Since both Phantom and Shifthub are in alpha stage, we appreciate if users report possible bugs
or user experience issues.

Nice! Just downloaded it. Haven't unzipped yet...

Looks really great, congrats!  The wallet does seem to be several hours behind.  It's showing a deposit from 5 hours ago, but is not showing a completed deposit from 40 minutes ago.  (Neither does the 1.5.1 desktop wallet)

EDIT: nix that, gshift wasn't caught up for some reason.  How is Phantom dependent on gshift?  I didn't see any reference noting that gshift needed to be running.  Was this just coincidental?

so is this new web wallet?

GShift is running in the background when you start Phantom.

Hi velf,

no. It is not a web wallet running on a centralized server, your browser is just the frontend
to communicate with Phantom, the backend.

What you see right now is ShiftHub. It is just using your browser as the interface to access
GShift with our custom developed IPC calls. Everything you do is local, i.e. coins are in your
wallet, the tx database is stored locally too.

As development continues there will be many more features you can access on ShiftHub,
e.g. creating a website, a blockexplorer, a dapp store, messaging functions and much more.
All on that same interface you are using right now to access our first ShiftHub application, the
wallet.

This release is much more than a regular new wallet, even more than a webwallet. It contains
the full functionality to interact with Phantom, we just need to make the features available to
users.


It takes a while to fully understand the concept behind Phantom so we are currently preparing
infographics but if you have any questions, please ask.

The new ShiftHub front end is very nice, good job.

Just a few little things:

The Transaction Overview graph is showing that I have 33 transactions and 0 received, it should be roughly 31 received and 1 or 2 sent.  I think the received values are just getting combined with the sent values.

When I hover my mouse over my address so I can copy/paste, my cursor disappears and it looks like the boundaries for the address and everything else are very close making it difficult to highlight the  address.  Can you make a left click on the address go right to the clipboard, or click with a pop-up for "To Clipboard", etc.

If two transactions are very close on the graph, the mouse hover has a hard time displaying the pop-up indicator.  I have two transactions show within a few blocks, one contains roughly 10x the value as the lower transactions, the mouse over will not recognize the higher transactions value and will now show me the pop-up.


Anyways, Good Job and Good-Luck

hi guys, has launched an application on windows, all run from the base of the purse is great, it asks only open port 15441 for full participation in the phantom network.

On MacOS application does not run ((

[ShiftConnect]

Thanks for the feedback everyone, very much appreciated!

We give priority to OS compatibility issues but will be working through the UI/UX feedback soon after.

Great work ShiftTeam, i'm impressed. it must be hard working without Market appreciation.. Shift image was damaged and it takes time and real effort (that we slowly see here) to regain market trust, but guys just keep what you doing and things will follow.

Hi Merick,

we already fixed the incoming / outgoing transaction counters for you. Please check your wallet

Phantom gives us the ability to push fixes and new features (to a big extent) without anyone having to download or replace any files!

is there a chance this will become tradable in polo?
are the ethereum dapps fully compatible in shift?

Ethereum Dapps are fully compatible with Shift. The decision to keep compatibility was made early on.

We have not received any response from Poloniex so far. As we said after the relaunch, we want to keep working on a few more releases before we start another attempt at getting listed on Poloniex. For our size Bittrex has sufficient volume and we currently can't afford to spread that across many exchanges.

We will be doing everything in our power to get listed on Poloniex eventually, but there is a lot the community can do to support us. Let them know we are an active and innovative coin with a unique concept in crypto, it might influence their decision.

Hi, the coin has been relaunched a few months ago, and so it's a new chain which has included previous accounts. Good choice anyway^^
