Krypton To Hire Core Developer

Starting up any business is no easy task. It’s even harder to do in the tech sector, as a volunteer project. Though there is much enthusiasm now for the emerging technology of blockchains, there remain few developers capable of coding these distributed ledger platforms and even fewer willing to volunteer their time with no immediate promise of compensation.

It has been Krypton’s future plan to seek blockchain developers from among the universities in the IC3 program, recipients of a grant to study cryptography from the National Science Foundation. Krypton will be competing with the likes of Google and Apple for these best-of-the-best computer science graduates but, for this Krypton must await an initial round of VC funding.

As a volunteer project, Krypton has created a public blockchain, KR, based on a copy of Ethereum’s open source code. This blockchain has been running live since February 2016, until a novel type of 51% attack was discovered and executed against the KR chain by malicious hackers.

At the present time, trading of the coin associated with the KR chain has been temporarily suspended until a code fix can be programmed and tested. This will be no simple task. To accomplish this will require the very specific knowledge of an Ethereum core developer experienced with Go language.

To date, the Krypton KR chain has been created by one core developer, Krypton-Dev. This he has done, without pay, for his love of crypto and also for the hope that someday, his KR tokens might become a more valuably tradable commodity than they already are.

Unfortunately, when Krypton most needs the special programming talents of Krypton-Dev, his real-life work is too demanding to devote the time that will be involved in coding this fix.

It is for this reason that Krypton-Dev coded an alternative blockchain, one impervious to this Ethereum-chain-specific type of attack, to enable the KR coin to keep trading. Krypton planned to move the KR token to this new blockchain as a temporary measure until the Krypton chain could be hardened to withstand further attacks.

Krypton was in the process of discussing this move with the exchange where KR is traded, Bittrex Exchange, until Krypton received a timely solution. Prof. Emin Gun Sirer, computer science at Cornell University, has met with Krypton’s founder, Stephanie Kent and has proposed a possible fix.

Now, with it’s sole core developer busy, Krypton is looking to hire another core developer to implement this fix. The Krypton community has been asked to contribute to a development fund in order to offer compensation to this developer.

Krypton Development Fund (BTC) - 12pWLhz1cYmFPaKSBF5Pui5YddJS1jsxsz

Krypton Development Fund (KR) - 0x2529e0018a17dcc067f536d1cd3e1fd9af066099

In addition, Krypton’s founder will be donating an undisclosed amount of her own KR coins to fund this project.

If Krypton cannot find and code a timely solution, there will be no other choice but to temporarily move KR tokens away from the current Ethereum-based blockchain to a more secure Bitcoin-based one.

Krypton remains committed to providing the distributed technology products of smart contracts, dApps, DACs and DAOs on the KR blockchain. This might not be possible in the short term, unless Krypton hires another top developer.

Candidate developers, please contact Stephanie Kent (@covertress) in Krypton’s Slack channel:

hi
short question, I have the 1.0.0 qt-wallet running with some coins.
After all what recently happened, can I still use this version for syncing my wallet?
cheers

Krypton Dev Fund -  12pWLhz1cYmFPaKSBF5Pui5YddJS1jsxsz - balance = 0.4217501

If a solution to these new types of 51% attacks cannot be coded and tested by next Monday, 26-Sept, Bittrex will force Krypton to swap to the proposed, temporary, POS blockchain or be delisted. 1.5 BTC is required by Bittrex for the swap.

Do not despair if KR is forced to swap though.

Krypton is committed to keeping all of the best of Ethereum D-Tech (smart contracts, distributed applications) and the best of Bitcoin (blockchain security.)

Krypton will continue to code this mixture of "blockchain done right," but we will only do it from a chain that does not put your KR at risk while we work.

[Fredomago]

sorry for this question since you open things regarding to bittrex i just wanted to know if what will happen to our coin which still stuck from their wallets swap will be when or you are still making some things to make the coin still exchangeable from bittrex its getting to my concern because its been quite a while now that the coins still cant be traded from bittrex.

[covertress]

Krypton Dev Fund -  12pWLhz1cYmFPaKSBF5Pui5YddJS1jsxsz - balance = 0.4217501

 
The Bittrex swap fee is 1.5 BTC.

Bittrex will delist KR on 26-Sept if no swap happens.

Krypton is ready to do the swap but needs your support.

Krypton has no premine or development funds to draw from.

Either contribute to the fund above, or KR will be delisted from Bittrex.

wow so theres no real way aside from paying the amount hope the community who still have good concerned will served as good samaritan here to survive this problem. good luck dev.

[Tanglemymind]

so get ur vision right and set goals that make KR great

the weakest and the strongest part of KR is a "one woman show"
try to keep the strong parts from that
but get rid of the weak parts to be feedback resistent about what can make KR great

Get my vision right?

cryptonit, with all due respect, and mine for you is quickly waning, kindly quit giving me advice about how I should be conducting my business.

This forum is for me telling you what I am doing with Krypton and KR. If you don't like it, go back to playing with your own coin.

I'm building a Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) corporation and a foundation, to guide and support the open source, public blockchain, KR.

If, after all I've written on this forum, you only understand KR to be a "coin," then I cannot help you, other than to direct you towards some materials on reading and comprehension:

http://www.k12reader.com/subject/reading-skills/reading-comprehension/

You have no vision, no cash, no options. Begging for 1.5 bitcoins is a disgrace and you should be embarrassed!

My time with KR is finished.

I want those that are left here still watching paint dry that she was given an opportunity to save your delisting on bittrex but was blinded by her lack of business skills.

Blame it on the 4th time you have been sick, no electricity, high blood pressure, bad internet connection etc...whatever.

KR is over.

Krypton Community,

You know as well as I do that Krypton-Dev NEVER posts to bct.

Please DO NOT listen to any noob trolls trying to steal your BTC by posing as Krypton-Dev to solicit dev funds.

The only true address for depositing BTC to the Krypton Dev Fund, is my Circle account:

12pWLhz1cYmFPaKSBF5Pui5YddJS1jsxsz

I will post an update of the total funds collected towards the Bittrex swap soon.

Meanwhile, enjoy the party!

We're swapping to POS!

Thanks for your support!

Steph

P.S. The current Krypton Dev Fund balance is 1.74706734 BTC!

nice to hear that pos is another way to earn more kr so if we will going to change it to this it will attract more investors to join the project good luck dev hope we can make it on time.

The new KR PoS blockchain is up & running.

Nodes are being added & wallets tested.

Swap details are coming soon.

wow, this is really a good news. So now bittrex may also not delist KR. Waiting for swap and please also give details about how to securely swap our KR which are in Krypton wallets.

This is good news and can't wait to check out the new KR POS wallet. So does this now mean Bittrex won't delist KR from their exchange?

[scintilla]

my kr deposit to bittrex is stuck, any update for this? thanks.

[anus340]

They're rushing to get this going to avoid the pending lawsuit that's about to be submitted. Who do you think talked Bittrex in to giving them a one week deadline? I'm making these people bust their ass and they better continue to get the swap going NOW!

@scintilla: send me a PM to get added to the class action suit list, if you don't get your coins back. We'll make sure you won't lose your initial investment. I have a separate KR fund for this purpose -- ty.

LULZ !!!

Get a life troll.

Btw, you have been reported to the Pensacola P.D. for attempted theft of Krypton Dev Funds by impersonating Krypton-Dev.

I have your isp, dumbass.

Oh, and anus340, aka makotako on Bittrex slack, don't drop the soap.

Thank you, arseaboy.

All testing is coming along well.

Bittrex is doing a review of the new KR proof-of-stake code. These code reviews normally take several days.

Don't worry. Krypton is in no danger of being delisted from Bittrex now.
