LBRY.IO - DICUSSION THREAD

[jiggytom]

Good reward system btw.
30 June 2018 (or earlier) A Coinbase Buy Widget in the LBRY app which enables Coinbase users to purchase BTC/LTC/ETH and convert it into LBRY Credits (from CMcalendar).
Hope the price will finally move till the date.

I like LBC, but IPBC is a very serious competitor.

IPBC is web based + uses IPFS which relies on other hosts. LBRY is probably the most decentralized and community driven (open source) of the content sharing projects. We hope to have a web based version of LBRY later this year/ early next year to provide an easier, web based access to users who don't want the full decentralized experience in app.

There we go, thats what LBRY really needs, an easy web based client for people to utilize. The community and specs of LBRY are great, but the price action is always lackluster 

Hopefully later this year we can see a new up trend

For the price action the team must do something about the huge coin emission... inflation
How is that gonna keep price in check 
It must be small

Our goal is to build a great product from the ground up, and as you know, that takes time. It doesn't matter how polished LBRY is right now, all YouTubers aren't going to magically switch over. It will take a culture shift from that perspective and us continuing to build out the LBRY network + apps so that when everyone is ready, they have a solid experience.

I know it sucks looking at the price and trying to figure out why it's not higher, etc, but it's not something we can focus on a daily basis.  We have to keep our devs down and focus on what's to come a year or two from now - we can't do much about the markets since a majority of the LBC is inflation that comes from the mining algorithm. If investors are not happy with this, stay should stay away. We did not create this company/product to pump the price. Our price stance has not changed: https://lbry.io/news/acryptypical

You want LBRY to change the PoW emission it set originally set at the genesis block, just because the price isn't living up to your expectations? How would you feel about that changing for something like Bitcoin? These are hard-coded parameters that were well defined and any investor should be aware of. The emission rate will continue to slowly decrease over the next few years. Check out http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=plot+floor((floor(sqrt(x*144+%2B+1)+-+1)%2F2)*-1+%2B+500),+x+%3D+0+to+7300) for a rough sketch of what it looks like (we're gonna setup a bounty to get a better picture of this) - X is the days since Oct 2016. We are currently at a block reward of 360 (y axis).

It is so usual to read negative opinions when price crashes like this...
Though, I agree, time hasn't come yet for LBRY.

Good news !!!

LBC is added to Blocknet / BlockDX (Decentralized exchange & communication protocol between many different blockchains). You can trade and build dapps for your favorite coin.      

(Full launch with Litewallet and beautiful gui is July 1st)  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=829576.0

This token only falls and falls, sometimes making sharp jumps up, but the trend is obviously downward, and the probability of growth is very low

[visionary]

All those so called OG's coins performing kinda bad on shittrex (price actions wise)
totally agree. if one entity can change smth (like emission f.r.) that's not good. it goes against the whole idea of decentralization

[nightandday]

Looks like LBRY is at its bottom.

 I saw a tweet that reminded me of what steemit looked like before steem really took off. Looks like there is most definitely a growth in users which is a very good thing to see :-)

[jiggytom]

I dont know but can anyone tell me what the average time is to confirm a LBRY transfer?

2.5 minutes per block.

btw any crypto or blockchain-related channels on LBC already? some youtubers who moved recently may be.

[Valareos]

An easy web version would really help mass adoption.
A quote from here https://lbry.io/news/acryptypical about LBC price:

"It won't go up because we're focusing on generating PR, hype, or the absurd marketing claims that seem to permeate the industry. LBC will go up when we've built a product that is compelling enough to change people's habits. A product that causes people to use it instead of YouTube, Gumroad, Amazon, or Streamable."

[lolchina]

No need to worry about lbry,ground is set for apump they are listed on Korean exchange upbit that have 2-3 more volume then bittrex and it can go easily x10 they start buying.Not to mention that we will see android app in the near future

I believe there a few publishers that focused on those things. Coin Stories is one of the examples.

If your favorited publishers aren't yet on LBRY, you can join the LBRY discord and make a request for it. The community will then judge if your favorite creators are worthy enough. If it so, LBRY team will make an appointment with the creators, and try to bring it to LBRY.

Chainquery is an exciting addition to LBRY! http://news.lbry.io/news/what-is-chainquery

Guys, I would like to upgrade LBRX to the latest version but it is only for 64bit Windows. So I have installed a new virtual machine with 64bit windows but how should I move it. Is it even possible? I have tried to follow the FAQ (link below) but it does not work. Can someone help me please?
Thank you very much

LBRY is a sleeper coin, its making good progress while the price is quite low,
But one thing to be ware of is the recent trend of 51% attacks, as the hash rate is quite low it is not costing a lot to attack low cap coins and steal the funds. Hope the team is aware of any such potential threats that can arise because of the recent trend of such attacks across PoW coins
