[ANN][LSK] Lisk | Blockchain Application Platform for JavaScript Developers

I've been running a $10 node since July. I don't know what happened prior to that but I see the facts that I just pointed out. 1) Lisk is not ready yet 2) at this point you can run a $10 dollar node 3) the community can't handle the bugs that may occur.

1. true
2. sure right now on mainnet because genesis nodes are running all the forging spots and are stable because they are not switching ranks.  What happens when we're allowed to start forging and the order of forging nodes starts to change and forks start happening again on mainnet and your $10 node is the first one to fork?
3. why does the community have to handle it?  We paid Max 6 million dollars to make it work.

2. Then you get paid, and that's a lot of money. You have to upgrade to a $200 node or you get downvoted. In any case you still have a nice income.
3. As a delegate you are the one who has to handle and protect your node. Max only has to deliver a stable product (something that lisk isn't right now) and nothing more. You have to monitor your node, keep it up and updated and protect it from attacks. My point was that some members wanted to forge in an unstable mainnet without being able to deal with the requirements (keeping your node up and running)

2. your answer for 2 is garbage and doesn't answer the fundamental problem.  Just because you can have a $10 node now does not mean you can forge without using a $100 node.  all other nodes who are not forging are wasting energy.

3. the core code is flawed, what are the delegates to do about that?  

Ok, i'm done arguing with you.  No need, we can both agree to disagree but I've been here and have seen the the whole evolution of Lisk daily since like page 30 of this thread.

Me too, I just decided to join the delegate thing a little later. Anyway, good luck with whatever you decide.

[TheStuhlman]

is there a way to start a $1 node and start forging?

Thanks dude, I'm more of a Community > Technology kinda person.   Thanks man, GL to you also

gratz on the delist from bitmex

wtf you are saying? lisk still listed there...
inside information or just fud?

Forging isn't still enabled in the mainnet so we can't tell what the system requirements would be. But in my opinion $1 is too low.

what is the minimum, and is there a guide on starting a node?

Check this guide https://lisk.io/documentation?i=lisk-docs/BinaryInstall
You can test your node in testnet, read the testnet channel at lisk.chat. (Currently the testnet has some issues but you can still catch up there, or you can run a mainnet node and wait till the forging starts)

The technical equipment is essential and not the price.

I have 4 nodes, 2 each at both providers. Works perfekt for me.
Vultr or Digital Ocean is much more expensive and not better, I've tested them also.
And you can recognize at time4vps for example, there is a big difference when you pay for a month or equal for 3 months, 6 months, 12 mounths etc.

I believe in Lisk and you?

I have heard good things about LSK. Going to keep my eyes on it.

Since this is the lisk thread I have to notice that lisk started as a copy of crypti. At ths moment, as I recall Oliver saying , lisk code base has nothing to do with crypti anymore.

Helpful may be a look at the following topic.
There you will find all changes made to the Lisk core from the beginning.
