### CWI-POOL - NEW POOL SERVERS

Hi All.

New pool servers have been commissioned and have commenced the build for the new CWI-Pool system.

These new servers are based on another Cloud ISP, though this one is a much larger ISP. We are still working with our previous ISP, but on a smaller level for the time being.

The new server builds have commenced, and we are hoping that by the end of next week, we can have a functional test of the system. As many of you know, we are quite careful about publishing anything that is not ready for full production, and testing reigns supreme with CWI. This is no different now with these new servers, and the new CWI-Pool build.

CWI-Pool is currently being built with a difference structurally than the current incarnation of CWI-Pool. Multiple servers will take effect here, and will be utilized to their full capacity, so that any issues such as DDOS can be mitigated as quickly as possible, and that in the case of such an attack, the front end will be the only part that will be affected, not the mining backend.

Obsidian (our custom stratum) has been powering on, progressively getting better as development continues. So far, we are VERY happy with the results we are getting with Obsidian, and we are looking forward to building a number of pools in the coming weeks.

When the new CWI-Pool system comes online, we will designate it in alpha, then beta, then full production. Full testing (with your help) will be required, and your patience while this happens is appreciated. Once the new CWI-Pool system is in fully fledged 'Production' mode, we will begin to migrate you all off the old server/system, and restart new accounts on the new CWI-Pool system. This will mean that we will adopt the old URL addressing for a short time, but the new addresses will need to be used after we decide on a cutoff date for deprecating the old URL for mining.

Thanks,

A week has passed. Are you going to do something? The previous explorer you disabled, the new one does not work.

What on earth are you talking about?

Get your facts right before you post.

We did NOT disable the last explorer, and are working WITH the guy that OWNS the new explorer to get it syncing.

If we don't OWN the explorers, how on earth do you EXPECT (which is something that peeves me to no end) that we will 'fix' anything at all?

If you post EXPECTING anything from us that we have ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER, then expect that your post will be ignored.

### CWI-POOL - COIN ALLOCATION

Hi All.

The backend infrastructure for the new opol system is almost complete, and the builds of the wallets and pools will be started next week.

This gives us the opportunity to discuss a number of things, especially which coins we are looking at including as part of the CWI-Pool system. Not all algorithms are supported just yet, and not all coins can be supported, but those that are PoW only, or have a long PoW will be some of the ones looked at first. Of course, we will create new pools so that we can jump over from the old pool server initially, but the way we are building the new CWI-Pool system is being done in such a way that it is almost trivial to setup a group of new server every time we need the space to add a number of coins again.

So, if there are any suggestions as to what coins you would all like to see, within reason and if we can support them of course, then we will definitely put them on the list, and create a short list of coins that we will update on a regular basis. This may lead to it's own thread, but let us see how we go here for the time being.

The current system looks to be able to handle between 52-70 coins currently, but that also depends on the size of the blockchain (due to storage), and memory requirements (memory capacity of daemon server).

The first coins being built will be our own PoW coins under the official CWI-Pool and our Partner Coins.

CWI-Pool Official Pools
1 - granite (GRN)
2 - InfluxCoin (INFX)
3 - OzzieCoin (OZC)
4 - SweepStakeCoin (SWEEP)

CWI-Pool Partner Pools
5 - BernCash (BERN)
6 - DonationCoin (DON)

CWI-Pool Supported Pools
7 - CreamCoin (X11)
8 - HomeBlockCoin (X11)
9 - Magnatum (SkunkHash Raptor)
10 - Denarius (Tribus)
11 - BitCore (TimeTravel10)

Our custom stratum Obsidian has quite a few Algorithms more than it originally had and has changed considerably from it's first incarnation (originally installed and custom coded by Ahmed Bodi), which means it can handle quite a few Algorithms easily and efficiently, thanks to the brilliant work of our Python/Stratum/BackEnd Engineer 'theBAZ' (barrystyle).

The list of Algorithms currently supported is below ...

Code:

obsidian 0.9.9                                                                                                                                                     
 
           _|                  _|        _|  _|                      
   _|_|    _|_|_|      _|_|_|        _|_|_|        _|_|_|  _|_|_|    
 _|    _|  _|    _|  _|_|      _|  _|    _|  _|  _|    _|  _|    _|  
 _|    _|  _|    _|      _|_|  _|  _|    _|  _|  _|    _|  _|    _|  
   _|_|    _|_|_|    _|_|_|    _|    _|_|_|  _|    _|_|_|  _|    _|  
 
algorithms:
[ axiom balloon bcrypt bitblock blake blake2s cryptonight fresh fugue groestl heavycoin jha keccak lyra2re lyra2rev2 m7 mgroestl neoscrypt nist5 phi1612 pluck polytimos quark qubit scrypt scrypt1048576 sha1 sha256 skein skunk timetravel10 tribus whirlpoolx x11 x11gost x13 x14 x14hsr x15 x17 xevan yescrypt ]

If any coin is to be chosen, it will be from the Algorithm list contained in Obsidian. We are working on a few coins already, so if you request a coin that currently being implemented, it will not be included in the list.

The CWI-pool system is currently in Phase I, which is being built with MPOS. Phase II will be a different format, which we will publish when created and fully tested. both Phase I and Phase II will work alongside one another, unless we deem the CWI-Pool system to be one or the other.

Please post below your suggestions, if you have any.

Thanks!

### CWI-COMPANY - CWI INCORPORATION

Hi All ...

I am very happy to announce that ChainWorks Industries (the registered business name), as of today, is now an Australian Registered Company under ASIC Regulations and Australian Laws as an incorporated company. The business entity which was known as ChainWorks Industries with a proprietor only, is now known as ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd under the Australian Legal system, an Australian Proprietary Company (Pty) Limited by shares (Ltd).

A great milestone for us indeed.

It doesn't stop there, as this milestone just got a lot bigger. Being a bona fide Australian Company, that as of tomorrow will have a bona fide Registered Australian Trust working alongside it, means we can do much more than what we have done. CWI as the Company is the core of the business now, while the Trust in turn will be doing a LOT of things I have personally been heavily working on these last few weeks (16 Hour days/nights and truly the last 7months now). Shares have been allocated, and as a small startup, we are looking at BIG things. All self funded - All self created and managed.

The advent of the incorporation and it's associated Business structure allows us to DO a LOT more than what we have done, and ties all the components that we have been building separately, as a Company unit, This pushes CWI into a new era of business, and opens up a whole gamut of new opportunities. These include, but not limited to, deals with various trading entities such as Suppliers of various sorts, deals with specialist Trade companies (Electrical Trades, Carpentry Trades, Plumbing Trades, Import/Export Trades, and so forth), alongside others such as Application Development Companies, IT and Crypto as well as the Property Market (news about this segment later). These Companies include the likes of Gigabyte, ASUS, MSI, Leader, and some other major Corporate Entities here in Australia and abroad such as manufacturers in China for example.

The incorporation also brings with it a whole new set of Rules and Regulations, with a massive amount of Responsibilities. Being under the Australian Legal Regulations as a Company ensures a number of things, three of which are most important.

1 - We are responsible to act and work according to the Australian Law, and are legally bound by those Laws.
2 - ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd is a legal entity, and therefore is accountable for all decisions made and actions taken.
3 - ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd is an entity that is not vapourware/fluffware, like many other entities in the CryptoIndustry.

We are now underway with establishing a number of plans that we have been working on for so long, and will encumber the huge responsibility (Personal, Business and Legal) of making sure that everything we do, we do for the company, and the people behind the company. ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd is still the umbrella for the projects, but soon, we will have those projects as part of the group of Companies that ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd oversees. The structure is complex, time and money consuming, but well worth it when we are finished with the structure we need to make CWI one of the major players in the Crypto and associated Industries. We will continue to strive for the betterment of not only Crypto, but the integration of Crypto in all areas of our lives.

Honesty . Integrity . Results

### CWI-ECOSYSTEM - FULL UPDATE

Hi All,

A great deal of time, effort and money has been expended for the greater good and expansion of the CWI-EcoSystem. As such, a number of things have taken place in the form of development and improvement in various areas of CWI-EcoSystem which will be covered below as brief as possible and in no particular order of preference.

This post will be the basis of what will be posted into the OP as well as the following posts that are currently reserved after the OP. As time goes on, we will continue to update and add to this information via these same posts at the beginning of this thread.

Brace yourself though as this is a BIG post already, and it has only covered 70% of what needs to be covered in the CWI-EcoSystem scope. It is not yet finished, but we hope that it will give you a more general insight into the 'what, when, where and how' of CWI. Let's start


CWI-theTEAM ...

A couple of changes have taken place as well as an additional member has joined theTEAM of ChainWorks Industries (CWI). He is known to a few in the development area, and after some work with us, proved to be a very skilled engineer in the development field indeed. We would like to welcome 'barrystyle' (known affectionately as 'theBAZ') officially to theTEAM. We at CWI hope it will be a very long term working relationship, and a successful partnership with theTEAM.

We would like to openly publish and introduce to you theTEAM, which now consists of the following members (in codenamed alphabetical order) ...

- theBARISTA (cryptocanary) - Core Coin C/C++ Engineer
- theBAZ (barrystyle) - Stratum/Coin/Python Engineer
- theBOT (skaia) - Web/PHP/Bot Engineer
- theOPTIMIZER (<name withheld>) - CUDA and C/C++ and CWIgm Engineer (Position Now Vacant - Apply If Interested)
- the<yettobenamed> (xisi) - Full Stack/Security Engineer
- the<yettobenamed> (<name withheld>) - Media Designer/Producer
- theBOSS or the<yettobenamed> (chrysophylax) - Infrastructure and Network Engineer/theTEAM Lead

Skaia is one of the oldest members of theTEAM. He has has fallen very ill many months ago and has been on/off for many months now with us. The last communication I have had with skaia proved to be very good. The illness he is suffering is reducing in veracity and we still hold hope that he will be well very soon so that he can join theTEAM once again in our ventures, even if it's on a low/part time level. We do wish him a very good FULL recovery, and hope his recovery will be much better as time moves on.


CWI-Pool ...

CWI-Pool was initially setup for internal use with prototyping, testing and mining. CWI-Pool system has grown to become a stable and effective mining 'tool' for not only our own coins, but also those coins we support directly and indirectly.

Currently CWI-Pool is based on a 'smaller' dedicated server which has been a very good base to start from. Since it's inception to now, we have outgrown this server in such a way that we can no longer keep the pools on this server. We did not anticipate any changes to be made to the server for quite some time when we created the very first pool, but as it stands, we have not only outgrown the current server, but surpassed the power that this trusty server has to offer. We have now commissioned a few new, much larger and more powerful servers to cater for this large expanasion.

These new servers can cater to a much larger number of pools, cater for a much heavier load and are more robust than the previous single server.

These new servers are the first of many that will appear in the CWI-Pool system. The main server being commissioned in the coming days, and her name is Amethyst.

More details of the naming convention we are using for the servers and CWI-Stratum will be published when she is completely installed and running, and we have a seamless integration between all servers. We are currently working on her and the other servers as I write this post.


CWI-Stratum (Obsidian) ...

The backend structure is an entity that not many people get to see or work with, hear or understand to a large extent. This being true, the 'backend' systems are the foundation of CWI-InfraStructure that keep ALL of our components/systems alive. As the CWI-InfraStructure is considered the skeleton of CWI, the heart is surely the backend systems that keep the life blood running through out digital veins.

One of those systems that the end user NEVER gets to see is the CWI-Stratum that runs the mining efforts of the CWI-Pool system.

This stratum is a custom stratum that was originally introduced and recoded for our needs in the CWI-Pool system by 'cryptoexpert' (Ahmed Bodiwala - AKA Ahmed Bodi). He did a superb job and we thank him greatly for the work that was initially done. With our expansion of CWI-Pool came more extensive requirements of various kinds, from algo additions to fixes in code, to recoding of the stratum in various modules of the core code. In comes barrystyle, with his unique way of communication, style of coding and persona, who has solid Python coding expertise.

CWI-Stratum (now codenamed Obsidian) is fast becoming one of the most progressive and stable stratum's in the Crypto Mining Industry. Of course work is always there to be done, bugs to be quashed and code improved, but our custom CWI-Stratum Obsidian has become one of the most dependable components of the CWI-Mining effort. Based on the changes currently being made, we will be introducing faster, more efficient ways of mining, while using developed and tested systems such as MPOS for our CWI-Pool frontend. we will also introduce custom inhouse coded frontend systems that are currently being designed and built, to give a full gamut of an experience in mining through CWI-Mining.


CWI-Cloud ...

There is no secret that the CWI-InfraStructure is not like any other in the Crypto Industry. Whether it be CWI-SeedNodes and VPS support, or CWI-Stake nodes for those we support, we are building CWI-InfraStructure bigger and better at every opportunity we get.

The current CWI-Cloud system we have, much like the CWI-Pool system, has now been outgrown.

CWI-SeedNodes have been in need of upgrade and expansion for quite some time now. Due to an unfortunate massive electrical issue (brownout) which destroyed almost all of CWI-theFARM mining operation, we had to suspend our progression into the CWI-Cloud system and focus on the damage control required to minimize the financial bloodletting we would suffer due to the disaster.

We are happy to mention that after quite some time, we have been progressing slowly but surely in a positive direction with all things that the CWI-Cloud has to offer, which includes the slow and steady rebuild of theFARM.

Our first commission took the form of 26 new dedicated vps systems that are currently being built. These servers are more powerful than the older 'small' servers we have now outgrown, with much more power and storage to utilize. Over the coming week, we will be preparing these servers to migrate the current CWI-Cloud components (which include but not limited to CWI-SeedNodes - CWI-StakeNodes - CWI-ChainNodes (codename for internal masternodes currently being built)), with a further 43-52 of these new servers being commissioned coming months.

What does this all this mean? Well, many things, but basically it means the CWI-InfraStructure stability and solidity is compromised, while maintaining a continuous and backend to service the networks of the projects that are contained within the nodes. Many of those projects are coins that we support, and are CWI-Partners as well as CWI-Supported Projects.


CWIgm ...

Well!

We were sick and tired of being sick and tired of other developers being so riddled with greed, that they could not see past the BTC they were getting for sub-par quality miners. Especially those that had been copied from OpenSource projects and resold without adhering to the GPL License.

That's when CWIgm was born.

When we first introduced CWIgm version 0.9.7 to beta test, we had been alpha testing the predecessor of version 0.9.7 with one algo (SkunkHash Raptor). It was a little shaky, but mined very well, with some instability issues.

Not long after, with the incredible help of the closed beta testers feedback and constructive criticisms, we released CWIgm-0.9.8 to the beta test. This version changed quite substantially from version 0.9.7, as the console view changed, stability increased, we added another algo (Tribus) and a few other features to make CWIgm a much easier application to mine with. Being 'semi' optimized, yet mining faster and more reliably than many other offerings, it still stood the well to the tests that many miners put CWIgm through, and compared reasonably well again many other mining applications that had a pedigree dating many years. Not too shabby considering CWIgm was a few weeks old and held it's own against them.

Over the last few months, CWIgm has morphed once again to what we believe is a real game changer. CWIgm-0.9.9. This version not only has additional algos, but CWIgm is built with better stats display, many bug fixes, with a revamped core design that makes mining much more stable. Algorithms perform better and are optimized, with many feature enhancements and additions, like an internal web system that allows miners to connect directly with the miner for CWI-WebStats FROM the miner directly.

The code that CWIgm-0.9.9 is based will be the foundation code that future versions of CWIgm will be built upon. As such, CWIgm is morphing into an entity all its own and we are proud to be able to present the miner free of charge. CWIgm is locked to CWI-Pool and is seamless in it's operation with our pools.

CWIgm-0.9.9 is coming very shortly, as the majority of bugs have been squashed and most internal tests have been completed successfully.

This has now unfortunately changed, and the suspension of the CWIgm-0.9.9 Release is an indefinite one. Many other priorities have taken precedence, and as such, we will return to CWIgm, if and when we decide it is time to do so.


CWI-Web ...

CWI-WebSite is also under construction. This component of the CWI-EcoSystem has had a hiatus for quite some time for various reasons, but we will soon have things moving again and will have the first port of the CWI-WebSite published soon after we are satisfied that it is suitable for public use.

Components of this development are varied, which include areas of the website that cover latest downloads, updates, statistics of the CWI-InfraStructure (both Global and Segmentation level), details and information on our projects that cover almost all areas and a number of extras. Exchange Tickers/Quotes and information, including many other areas that we will cover in full at a later date.

One of the biggest challenges faced with the website build is simply effort and money. It seems everytime we believe a component is complete, another component is added or changed and needs work. This leads to additional components to the website that needs setup, planning and more work. This continuous merry-go-round blows out our efforts and finances to such an extent that we sometimes have no choice but to pause work, step back and resume work at a later date. Hence the delays, and the reason why CWI-WebSite is delayed in being published.

The good news though, is we WILL have the CWI-WebSite (with the larger scope of CWI-Web) system back on track in the coming weeks.


CWI-Fund ...

This is a system that initially started as a granite (GRN) savings fund for me. On a personal level, what I found when I started 'saving' granite was that the funds were not always as accessible as I would have liked them to be. Especially in terms of spending or paying for commissions, contractors and other developers for services rendered.

Now, no matter which coin we were paying with, we needed immediate access to any funds we required, which was not possible when the wallets were closed and not in sync. So when a process was devised to alleviate this issue, CWI-Fund was started. CWI-Fund is now a lot more than 'just' a savings system for various wallets. It has become a means of coin availability and storage, as well as a repository for ANY of the funds we collate. Whether doing work for other projects and getting paid in their respective currency, or mining the funds via theFARM, or even trading coins on exchanges to which the CWI-Fund is now a part of (CWI-Trade system), we needed a way of accessibility that was immediate and always in sync no matter which wallet we used.

We are in the testing phase of the CWI-Trade system, which handles the autonomous trading of coins. This is a backend system that is currently internally trading to increase our level of holdings that CWI-Fund has, and in turn, becomes the one component that will continue to make ChainWorks Industries (CWI) a solvent and successful business. Even though CWI-Fund is an internal private fund, if the testing becomes a viable means of income, we have plans for the creation of a system whereby any of our CWI-Members (miners - coin collectors - trade speculators - stakers) can take part. This of course depends on a number of factors, but is one of our visions. For CWI-Fund to share its methods and strategies with 'our' people.


CWI-Coin ...

With the multitude of coins out there in CryptoSociety nowadays, many of you have asked WHY on earth have we decided to take on a number of coins all at the same time, instead of either developing all the coins we have taken on to help the communities OR focus on just ONE of our coins.

This is undoubtedly a good question, and a question that can't be just summed up with 'because we can' as an answer. Each coin we have acquired has its own unique code, with it's own community, as well as market. One coin may have code we like, another a market we like. Each coin pros and cons and we accept the responsibility with taking on the development and upkeep of the coins we have chosen thus far. This does not mean we will stop acquiring coins, nor does it mean we will continue acquiring coins. What this means is that as a learning process in the never-ending evolution of core code and changing markets, we will continue to improve our own 'base' of not only code, but the improving the state of the market for the communities of those coins, simply by doing what we believe is a positive thing for the crypto markets. That is code development, trade, and ultimately the USE of the coins.

The original coin acquired by me many years back, is granite (GRN).

granite was the coin that I had faithfully mined, and mined heavily, that when the original 'owner' of the coin wanted 'out' due to the collapse of the market, I snapped up the chance to get my fingers on it and get my hands dirty with work. GRN still remains a soft spot for me. The plans that have been accumulating and growing in complexity for granite, is such that we now need to keep the development of granite LAST, so that we can focus on the lengthy rebuild that granite will take on. This will happen after the redevelopment of our other coins has passed so we can focus solely on the new codebase and features that we have planned for granite.

Since the inception of ChainWorks Industries (CWI) and the build of CWI-Infrastructure, we have grown some, then some.

The coins we consider 'our' coins are listed below (in order of when they were acquired) ...

- granite (GRN)
- OzzieCoin (OZC)
- Droidz (DRZ)
- InfluxCoin (INFX)
- SweepStakeCoin (SWEEP)

Development of our coins will be executed in the order below ...

- OZC
- INFX
- DRZ/SWEEP
- GRN

This also means we may change various attributes of the coins. From functionality, to amount of coins and emmissions, to coin caps. Which brings us to the creation of three algorithms we have been developing for quite some time now. These algorithms are based in essence in the deep trenches of the earths crust ...

- tier1 algo codenamed algoX
- tier2 algo codenamed algoZ
- tier3 algo codenamed algoA

All the algorithms are designed around the basis that tier1 is more 'simple', with tier2 being midway between 'simple' and 'complex' and tier3 algo being more 'complex' in terms of mining capabilities/ASIC resistance. The current status of the development is as follows ...

- tier1 algo is finished and is currently being assigned and integrated into OZC
- tier2 algo is almost finished and is currently being assigned and integrated into INFX
- tier3 algo is planned and designed and is currently being built and assigned to GRN

We decided to create our own algorithms rather than just implement any one of the array of algos out there, simply because we wanted to continue the unique method of development (and product use), that so many have now become accustomed to with ChainWorks Industries (CWI).


CWI-Social ...

TBA - To Be Advised. We are looking into various ways/methods/applications to build a decent Social platform and Forum, which will require the work of a good PHP/WEB developer to join our ranks.


CWI-InfraStructure ...

This is the backbone of ALL that we do.

From the CWI-Pool system, right across the board to the CWI-SeedNode system and CWI-Stake system. Even the development of our newest CWIgm which relies on our pool system for tethering to. With CWI-InfraStructure affecting every part of CWI-EcoSystem, we have taken great care, time, and expended plenty of money to make sure this one component is the most solid and robust of them all. This is not to say that the entire CWI-EcoSystem isn't solid, as it is by far of the utmost importance to have a solid, secure and robust system, but the skeletal infrastructure of CWI as a whole relies on the complete and utter reliability and full functionality of the CWI-InfraStructure - PERIOD!

From Cloud Servers to InHouse Mining Systems (theFARM - theGRID), we continue to improve and expand. This gives us a unique advantage over any competition, so that we can provide almost any support system to our partner coins, as well as any coin we support directly or indirectly, including our own.

Our initial CWI-SeedNode system has been outgrown and the backbone of the CWI-SeedNode system has suffered because of it. Since the early hours of the morning of Thursday October 12 2017 - not only has the new pool server CWI-Pool Amethyst been commissioned, but also 26 new dedicated servers alongside. These new servers are much larger in storage capacity, memory capacity and compute power to cater for the new CWI-SeedNode system, currently being built. The older servers having migration taking place in the coming days.

We plan on adding a further 43-52 new servers in the coming months for additional SeedNodes, bringing our CWI-SeedNode count to a total of 70 SeedNodes. Along with more servers dedicated to certain tasks that we will be implementing into the CWI-EcoSystem, will make sure that the CWI-InfraSturucture will be the system to rely on for stability and functionality.

We are also in close liaison, in early stages of planning with our ISP to bring into production a system that has never been done before in the CryptoIndustry. This system will take months of development to bring to market, but when completed and fully functional, will be one of the pivotal systems for crypto wallets and coin usage. We are aiming for this system to be so easy to use, that layman and veteran alike will find it a pleasure to use. Slated for end of 2018, we hope that it will be utilized in more that the CryptoIndustry, but also in general society for everyday use.

This is all we will say about this project dubbed CWI-Enigma.


Other areas we need to cover which will be updated as time goes on ...

- theFARM - theGRID ...
- CWI-Trade ...
- theSHOP ...
- ChainWorks Industries (CWI) - theBUSINESS (Now ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd - the Australian Incorporated Company) ...

As always, we welcome constructive criticism, ideas on how to improve this information, any help that anyone may be able to provide.

If anyone would like to join the group of wonderful people working on the number projects we have, please contact me directly on Skype (chrysophylax69) or via the CWI-Slack Group here - https://join.slack.com/t/chainworks-industries/shared_invite/enQtMjA1NjA3NDcyNDQ4LWFiZjNiMDA4OWY0Zjk3YTM2ZmEyYjJiNTAxNWRjMzM1ZjliMGFkYTE1ZGZmZjQyODU3YmM3NzViODZkODA4M2I

### CWI-ECOSYSTEM - FULL UPDATE

Hi All,

A great deal of time, effort and money has been expended for the greater good and expansion of the CWI-EcoSystem. As such, a number of things have taken place in the form of development and improvement in various areas of CWI-EcoSystem which will be covered below as brief as possible and in no particular order of preference.

This post will be the basis of what will be posted into the OP as well as the following posts that are currently reserved after the OP. As time goes on, we will continue to update and add to this information via these same posts at the beginning of this thread.

Brace yourself though as this is a BIG post already, and it has only covered 70% of what needs to be covered in the CWI-EcoSystem scope. It is not yet finished, but we hope that it will give you a more general insight into the 'what, when, where and how' of CWI. Let's start


CWI-theTEAM ...

A couple of changes have taken place as well as an additional member has joined theTEAM of ChainWorks Industries (CWI). He is known to a few in the development area, and after some work with us, proved to be a very skilled engineer in the development field indeed. We would like to welcome 'barrystyle' (known affectionately as 'theBAZ') officially to theTEAM. We at CWI hope it will be a very long term working relationship, and a successful partnership with theTEAM.

We would like to openly publish and introduce to you theTEAM, which now consists of the following members (in codenamed alphabetical order) ...

- theBARISTA (cryptocanary) - Core Coin C/C++ Engineer
- theBAZ (barrystyle) - Stratum/Coin/Python Engineer
- theBOT (skaia) - Web/PHP/Bot Engineer
- theOPTIMIZER (<name withheld>) - CUDA and C/C++ and CWIgm Engineer (Position Now Vacant - Apply If Interested)
- the<yettobenamed> (xisi) - Full Stack/Security Engineer
- the<yettobenamed> (<name withheld>) - Media Designer/Producer
- theBOSS or the<yettobenamed> (chrysophylax) - Infrastructure and Network Engineer/theTEAM Lead

Skaia is one of the oldest members of theTEAM. He has has fallen very ill many months ago and has been on/off for many months now with us. The last communication I have had with skaia proved to be very good. The illness he is suffering is reducing in veracity and we still hold hope that he will be well very soon so that he can join theTEAM once again in our ventures, even if it's on a low/part time level. We do wish him a very good FULL recovery, and hope his recovery will be much better as time moves on.


CWI-Pool ...

CWI-Pool was initially setup for internal use with prototyping, testing and mining. CWI-Pool system has grown to become a stable and effective mining 'tool' for not only our own coins, but also those coins we support directly and indirectly.

Currently CWI-Pool is based on a 'smaller' dedicated server which has been a very good base to start from. Since it's inception to now, we have outgrown this server in such a way that we can no longer keep the pools on this server. We did not anticipate any changes to be made to the server for quite some time when we created the very first pool, but as it stands, we have not only outgrown the current server, but surpassed the power that this trusty server has to offer. We have now commissioned a few new, much larger and more powerful servers to cater for this large expanasion.

These new servers can cater to a much larger number of pools, cater for a much heavier load and are more robust than the previous single server.

These new servers are the first of many that will appear in the CWI-Pool system. The main server being commissioned in the coming days, and her name is Amethyst.

More details of the naming convention we are using for the servers and CWI-Stratum will be published when she is completely installed and running, and we have a seamless integration between all servers. We are currently working on her and the other servers as I write this post.


CWI-Stratum (Obsidian) ...

The backend structure is an entity that not many people get to see or work with, hear or understand to a large extent. This being true, the 'backend' systems are the foundation of CWI-InfraStructure that keep ALL of our components/systems alive. As the CWI-InfraStructure is considered the skeleton of CWI, the heart is surely the backend systems that keep the life blood running through out digital veins.

One of those systems that the end user NEVER gets to see is the CWI-Stratum that runs the mining efforts of the CWI-Pool system.

This stratum is a custom stratum that was originally introduced and recoded for our needs in the CWI-Pool system by 'cryptoexpert' (Ahmed Bodiwala - AKA Ahmed Bodi). He did a superb job and we thank him greatly for the work that was initially done. With our expansion of CWI-Pool came more extensive requirements of various kinds, from algo additions to fixes in code, to recoding of the stratum in various modules of the core code. In comes barrystyle, with his unique way of communication, style of coding and persona, who has solid Python coding expertise.

CWI-Stratum (now codenamed Obsidian) is fast becoming one of the most progressive and stable stratum's in the Crypto Mining Industry. Of course work is always there to be done, bugs to be quashed and code improved, but our custom CWI-Stratum Obsidian has become one of the most dependable components of the CWI-Mining effort. Based on the changes currently being made, we will be introducing faster, more efficient ways of mining, while using developed and tested systems such as MPOS for our CWI-Pool frontend. we will also introduce custom inhouse coded frontend systems that are currently being designed and built, to give a full gamut of an experience in mining through CWI-Mining.


CWI-Cloud ...

There is no secret that the CWI-InfraStructure is not like any other in the Crypto Industry. Whether it be CWI-SeedNodes and VPS support, or CWI-Stake nodes for those we support, we are building CWI-InfraStructure bigger and better at every opportunity we get.

The current CWI-Cloud system we have, much like the CWI-Pool system, has now been outgrown.

CWI-SeedNodes have been in need of upgrade and expansion for quite some time now. Due to an unfortunate massive electrical issue (brownout) which destroyed almost all of CWI-theFARM mining operation, we had to suspend our progression into the CWI-Cloud system and focus on the damage control required to minimize the financial bloodletting we would suffer due to the disaster.

We are happy to mention that after quite some time, we have been progressing slowly but surely in a positive direction with all things that the CWI-Cloud has to offer, which includes the slow and steady rebuild of theFARM.

Our first commission took the form of 26 new dedicated vps systems that are currently being built. These servers are more powerful than the older 'small' servers we have now outgrown, with much more power and storage to utilize. Over the coming week, we will be preparing these servers to migrate the current CWI-Cloud components (which include but not limited to CWI-SeedNodes - CWI-StakeNodes - CWI-ChainNodes (codename for internal masternodes currently being built)), with a further 43-52 of these new servers being commissioned coming months.

What does this all this mean? Well, many things, but basically it means the CWI-InfraStructure stability and solidity is compromised, while maintaining a continuous and backend to service the networks of the projects that are contained within the nodes. Many of those projects are coins that we support, and are CWI-Partners as well as CWI-Supported Projects.


CWIgm ...

Well!

We were sick and tired of being sick and tired of other developers being so riddled with greed, that they could not see past the BTC they were getting for sub-par quality miners. Especially those that had been copied from OpenSource projects and resold without adhering to the GPL License.

That's when CWIgm was born.

When we first introduced CWIgm version 0.9.7 to beta test, we had been alpha testing the predecessor of version 0.9.7 with one algo (SkunkHash Raptor). It was a little shaky, but mined very well, with some instability issues.

Not long after, with the incredible help of the closed beta testers feedback and constructive criticisms, we released CWIgm-0.9.8 to the beta test. This version changed quite substantially from version 0.9.7, as the console view changed, stability increased, we added another algo (Tribus) and a few other features to make CWIgm a much easier application to mine with. Being 'semi' optimized, yet mining faster and more reliably than many other offerings, it still stood the well to the tests that many miners put CWIgm through, and compared reasonably well again many other mining applications that had a pedigree dating many years. Not too shabby considering CWIgm was a few weeks old and held it's own against them.

Over the last few months, CWIgm has morphed once again to what we believe is a real game changer. CWIgm-0.9.9. This version not only has additional algos, but CWIgm is built with better stats display, many bug fixes, with a revamped core design that makes mining much more stable. Algorithms perform better and are optimized, with many feature enhancements and additions, like an internal web system that allows miners to connect directly with the miner for CWI-WebStats FROM the miner directly.

The code that CWIgm-0.9.9 is based will be the foundation code that future versions of CWIgm will be built upon. As such, CWIgm is morphing into an entity all its own and we are proud to be able to present the miner free of charge. CWIgm is locked to CWI-Pool and is seamless in it's operation with our pools.

CWIgm-0.9.9 is coming very shortly, as the majority of bugs have been squashed and most internal tests have been completed successfully.

This has now unfortunately changed, and the suspension of the CWIgm-0.9.9 Release is an indefinite one. Many other priorities have taken precedence, and as such, we will return to CWIgm, if and when we decide it is time to do so.


CWI-Web ...

CWI-WebSite is also under construction. This component of the CWI-EcoSystem has had a hiatus for quite some time for various reasons, but we will soon have things moving again and will have the first port of the CWI-WebSite published soon after we are satisfied that it is suitable for public use.

Components of this development are varied, which include areas of the website that cover latest downloads, updates, statistics of the CWI-InfraStructure (both Global and Segmentation level), details and information on our projects that cover almost all areas and a number of extras. Exchange Tickers/Quotes and information, including many other areas that we will cover in full at a later date.

One of the biggest challenges faced with the website build is simply effort and money. It seems everytime we believe a component is complete, another component is added or changed and needs work. This leads to additional components to the website that needs setup, planning and more work. This continuous merry-go-round blows out our efforts and finances to such an extent that we sometimes have no choice but to pause work, step back and resume work at a later date. Hence the delays, and the reason why CWI-WebSite is delayed in being published.

The good news though, is we WILL have the CWI-WebSite (with the larger scope of CWI-Web) system back on track in the coming weeks.


CWI-Fund ...

This is a system that initially started as a granite (GRN) savings fund for me. On a personal level, what I found when I started 'saving' granite was that the funds were not always as accessible as I would have liked them to be. Especially in terms of spending or paying for commissions, contractors and other developers for services rendered.

Now, no matter which coin we were paying with, we needed immediate access to any funds we required, which was not possible when the wallets were closed and not in sync. So when a process was devised to alleviate this issue, CWI-Fund was started. CWI-Fund is now a lot more than 'just' a savings system for various wallets. It has become a means of coin availability and storage, as well as a repository for ANY of the funds we collate. Whether doing work for other projects and getting paid in their respective currency, or mining the funds via theFARM, or even trading coins on exchanges to which the CWI-Fund is now a part of (CWI-Trade system), we needed a way of accessibility that was immediate and always in sync no matter which wallet we used.

We are in the testing phase of the CWI-Trade system, which handles the autonomous trading of coins. This is a backend system that is currently internally trading to increase our level of holdings that CWI-Fund has, and in turn, becomes the one component that will continue to make ChainWorks Industries (CWI) a solvent and successful business. Even though CWI-Fund is an internal private fund, if the testing becomes a viable means of income, we have plans for the creation of a system whereby any of our CWI-Members (miners - coin collectors - trade speculators - stakers) can take part. This of course depends on a number of factors, but is one of our visions. For CWI-Fund to share its methods and strategies with 'our' people.


CWI-Coin ...

With the multitude of coins out there in CryptoSociety nowadays, many of you have asked WHY on earth have we decided to take on a number of coins all at the same time, instead of either developing all the coins we have taken on to help the communities OR focus on just ONE of our coins.

This is undoubtedly a good question, and a question that can't be just summed up with 'because we can' as an answer. Each coin we have acquired has its own unique code, with it's own community, as well as market. One coin may have code we like, another a market we like. Each coin pros and cons and we accept the responsibility with taking on the development and upkeep of the coins we have chosen thus far. This does not mean we will stop acquiring coins, nor does it mean we will continue acquiring coins. What this means is that as a learning process in the never-ending evolution of core code and changing markets, we will continue to improve our own 'base' of not only code, but the improving the state of the market for the communities of those coins, simply by doing what we believe is a positive thing for the crypto markets. That is code development, trade, and ultimately the USE of the coins.

The original coin acquired by me many years back, is granite (GRN).

granite was the coin that I had faithfully mined, and mined heavily, that when the original 'owner' of the coin wanted 'out' due to the collapse of the market, I snapped up the chance to get my fingers on it and get my hands dirty with work. GRN still remains a soft spot for me. The plans that have been accumulating and growing in complexity for granite, is such that we now need to keep the development of granite LAST, so that we can focus on the lengthy rebuild that granite will take on. This will happen after the redevelopment of our other coins has passed so we can focus solely on the new codebase and features that we have planned for granite.

Since the inception of ChainWorks Industries (CWI) and the build of CWI-Infrastructure, we have grown some, then some.

The coins we consider 'our' coins are listed below (in order of when they were acquired) ...

- granite (GRN)
- OzzieCoin (OZC)
- Droidz (DRZ)
- InfluxCoin (INFX)
- SweepStakeCoin (SWEEP)

Development of our coins will be executed in the order below ...

- OZC
- INFX
- DRZ/SWEEP
- GRN

This also means we may change various attributes of the coins. From functionality, to amount of coins and emmissions, to coin caps. Which brings us to the creation of three algorithms we have been developing for quite some time now. These algorithms are based in essence in the deep trenches of the earths crust ...

- tier1 algo codenamed algoX
- tier2 algo codenamed algoZ
- tier3 algo codenamed algoA

All the algorithms are designed around the basis that tier1 is more 'simple', with tier2 being midway between 'simple' and 'complex' and tier3 algo being more 'complex' in terms of mining capabilities/ASIC resistance. The current status of the development is as follows ...

- tier1 algo is finished and is currently being assigned and integrated into OZC
- tier2 algo is almost finished and is currently being assigned and integrated into INFX
- tier3 algo is planned and designed and is currently being built and assigned to GRN

We decided to create our own algorithms rather than just implement any one of the array of algos out there, simply because we wanted to continue the unique method of development (and product use), that so many have now become accustomed to with ChainWorks Industries (CWI).


CWI-Social ...

TBA - To Be Advised. We are looking into various ways/methods/applications to build a decent Social platform and Forum, which will require the work of a good PHP/WEB developer to join our ranks.


CWI-InfraStructure ...

This is the backbone of ALL that we do.

From the CWI-Pool system, right across the board to the CWI-SeedNode system and CWI-Stake system. Even the development of our newest CWIgm which relies on our pool system for tethering to. With CWI-InfraStructure affecting every part of CWI-EcoSystem, we have taken great care, time, and expended plenty of money to make sure this one component is the most solid and robust of them all. This is not to say that the entire CWI-EcoSystem isn't solid, as it is by far of the utmost importance to have a solid, secure and robust system, but the skeletal infrastructure of CWI as a whole relies on the complete and utter reliability and full functionality of the CWI-InfraStructure - PERIOD!

From Cloud Servers to InHouse Mining Systems (theFARM - theGRID), we continue to improve and expand. This gives us a unique advantage over any competition, so that we can provide almost any support system to our partner coins, as well as any coin we support directly or indirectly, including our own.

Our initial CWI-SeedNode system has been outgrown and the backbone of the CWI-SeedNode system has suffered because of it. Since the early hours of the morning of Thursday October 12 2017 - not only has the new pool server CWI-Pool Amethyst been commissioned, but also 26 new dedicated servers alongside. These new servers are much larger in storage capacity, memory capacity and compute power to cater for the new CWI-SeedNode system, currently being built. The older servers having migration taking place in the coming days.

We plan on adding a further 43-52 new servers in the coming months for additional SeedNodes, bringing our CWI-SeedNode count to a total of 70 SeedNodes. Along with more servers dedicated to certain tasks that we will be implementing into the CWI-EcoSystem, will make sure that the CWI-InfraSturucture will be the system to rely on for stability and functionality.

We are also in close liaison, in early stages of planning with our ISP to bring into production a system that has never been done before in the CryptoIndustry. This system will take months of development to bring to market, but when completed and fully functional, will be one of the pivotal systems for crypto wallets and coin usage. We are aiming for this system to be so easy to use, that layman and veteran alike will find it a pleasure to use. Slated for end of 2018, we hope that it will be utilized in more that the CryptoIndustry, but also in general society for everyday use.

This is all we will say about this project dubbed CWI-Enigma.


Other areas we need to cover which will be updated as time goes on ...

- theFARM - theGRID ...
- CWI-Trade ...
- theSHOP ...
- ChainWorks Industries (CWI) - theBUSINESS (Now ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd - the Australian Incorporated Company) ...

As always, we welcome constructive criticism, ideas on how to improve this information, any help that anyone may be able to provide.

If anyone would like to join the group of wonderful people working on the number projects we have, please contact me directly on Skype (chrysophylax69) or via the CWI-Slack Group here - https://join.slack.com/t/chainworks-industries/shared_invite/enQtMjA1NjA3NDcyNDQ4LWFiZjNiMDA4OWY0Zjk3YTM2ZmEyYjJiNTAxNWRjMzM1ZjliMGFkYTE1ZGZmZjQyODU3YmM3NzViODZkODA4M2I

Thanks,

#crysx

wow, congrats, and great update!

[Grafschmidt]

Well, just an idea: use Sweepstake coin as the "CWI trade system" token, such FlypMe does.
That would be a fantastic repurposing of the coin.

Also, in your possession there are still something like 60 million sweeps, that would be good for a fund raising.
You can also start thinking about reducing the cap for sweep, but you'll have to move up the coin the priority ladder, since by the time you're done with Sweep, there would be a billion coin circulating (or not circulating).

Again, that's a suggestion.

Thanks,

These are suggestions worth looking over.

We have an idea that seems to work well but may come across some technical hurdles which we can work around in future, but it seems a better way to take on, not just for SWEEP, but for most of the coins.

Thanks again for the suggestions, though we have been planning the 'CWI' side for GRN for a long time now. GRN is still the flagship due to the work that has been done in the background and the plans that have been put in motion for it. This is why we don;t talk much about GRN, but is also the very last to develop with all the things we are looking at integrating into this project.

BTW - the additional update to the previous is on it's way also. This should bring us uptodate with the majority of things we have been doing.

Some will surprise a few, others who have been watching us for a long time will see that it is all about time the plans have started to come together.

Hello there, great project! I believe in it, and i want to see more and invest more at your coins!

One thing that concerned me a bit is that Influx coin is getting removed from Bittrex, as i saw here: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000985452-Pending-Market-Removals-3-2-2018

Infx had a significant price drop since the article published. Is INFX safe? or....... ?

Influx is safe and remains part of the CWI coins.
The price drop is due to Bittrex delisting it. Chrys is trying to contact them to find out the reason.

Influx is still listed in Cryptopia.

Hello, and thank you for the fast reply.
I know already about cryptopia, it was just the announcment that made me a little confused. To be honest, some may wonder; how do we invest in something that we have no info, no website, no whitepaper.
Maybe thats the reason for the delist. Thats only my speculation.
I hope that this will be just a test for INFX.

I Wish the best for Chainwork Industries , looking so active right now. Waiting patiently for the site.

### CWI-ECOSYSTEM - WEBSITE

Hi All ...

A post to update you all, and just give an idea, of what the CWI-WebSite is shaping up to look like.

The following images are snapshots of the 'template' of what is shaping up to be the CWI-WebSite, and we are slowly getting to the stage where we can soon publish the 'base' site that every thing will be built around. This 'base' site will be more informative than anything else, but will grow to be the website we envision as the one website that can be THE place of information, usability, shopping, and much, much, MUCH more for Crypto in general, not the internal site for ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd.

There is quite a long way to go, but we hope that these snapshots will give you an idea of what we are working towards, and even though we know these don't show very much at all, we hope that even by these pics, your comments could render some idea of how we are going so far.

Please keep your comments and opions constructive as well as honest, as we are only publishing these pics as a progression level post to guage your ideas and optinons from rather than a 'show' post. Again, we still have a long way to go, but step by step we are progressing to the next level of our website, and we hope that it will eventually be a place that miners, traders and users alike can frequent often for their CryptoIndustry information and use more often than not.

We hope you all see what we see so far, and like what you see. Your criticisms and comments are very much appreciated.

Thanks,

#crysx

This looks really good. great work.
I think nothing will promote chainwork industries better than promoting its coins - granite, droidz. You guys need better marketing IMO

[RzeroD]

It looks great Crysx. Very good job and I'm glad that the updates start to come out.
It's a pity that in Bittrex they don't know how to appreciate that.

[DirtyMiner]

Great news Crysx, looking forward to the full release and finding out what the much MUCH more aspect is! CWI on it's way to becoming an established pioneer in the Crypto space down under.

[chrysophylax]

Thanks!

Agreed - and that is on the list of things that need to be done in the very near future.

We are sticking to our plan in the order we started, even though it takes time to do so.

Thanks - and we will start to do more regular updates.

Though we cannot just post anything, we appreciate the feedback.

Bittrex have their own agenda mate, and being their own exchange, it means we just need to respect their decision. Unfortunately, they don;t seem to respect others time for a response, so that is something they need to work on, or lose companies that WILL benefit them later when the tables turn, and they will.

I never forget mate - ever!

[chrysophylax]

Great news Crysx, looking forward to the full release and finding out what the much MUCH more aspect is! CWI on it's way to becoming an established pioneer in the Crypto space down under.

Appreciate that mate.

The much much more is coming in the form of the various modules that make up the WebSite and it's functionality, creating a productive environment for the user, trader and miner alike.

The next phase will be just the information and 'getting the website up', while the rest will be a whole different level of development in the website itself. This WILL take time and we are prepared for MANY to come at us with the usual 'you take too long' style of complaints, but we are doing this with one goal in mind, and that is to do it right first time. Not just push out anything just to have it out.

Australia will be put on the Crypto Map once we can get this ALL functional and working.

Still working on the new Pool Servers which I really am pushing to get out VERY soon. This will allow us MUCH more insofaras flexibility, expansion, and ease of addition and growth of the CWI-Pool platform. This will all be integrated into the website once it is all finished.

Teething issues - here we come
