### CWI-ECOSYSTEM - FULL UPDATEhi all ...
as has been mentioned before - a wallet release has been undergoing tests ... so far - all have been successful ... bar one ...
it was mentioned to me in our CWI-Slack channel that a timeframe was given - and that time limit had been surpassed - twice ...
allow me to explain a few things here ...
in all correspondence - i have made it quite clear that i am very much against roadmaps ... the reason for this is very simple ... a roadmap is not a plan - its a route to what WILL happen in a more rigid sense than 'plans' that are made ... this can be an issue of sorts ...
ill quote my explanation to a dev on skype who we are in discussion with for influx ...
'i have been around long enough to see and hear and KNOW what roadmaps do ... most are full of hype and crap - others are NEVER adhered to - where very very few actually have a full TEAM of people to make sure that the roadmap is adhered to ... we are three ( with your help also - makes four ) people that are loosely tied together to bring this organization of coins together ...'
i am referring to CWI - the organization ... and coins being granite ( grn ) ozziecoin ( ozc ) droidz ( drz ) and influxcoin ( infx ) ...
we are committed to the development of all the coins we have under our wing ... the when where how - is entirely up to the development process and the financial stability we have as a company ( CWI ) ... NOT a 'roadmap' that ties us to dates and cutoff periods which are simply 'close to impossible' to adhere to unless you have a large team ( like bitcoin and dash for example ) where each person is part of a team that handles ONE area of the project ... small businesses simply cant do that - or cannot afford to in costs ... especially devs that go on a coin-creation spree for their own pockets ... nice pretty pictures and a roadmap with awesome details - only to abandon the coin the moment they make their first 60btc ...
we are not them - we are not doing this for the money ( though that is one of the purposes of the coin design after all - the replacement thereof ) - and we are certainly not here for the short term ...
we ARE here for the success of the company ChainWorks Industries ( CWI ) ... period! ...
how can this success happen? ...
it MUST be done via the projects we have acquired and taken under our wing ... grn ozc drz infx - written here in the order that we acquired them ...
it MUST be done with diligent and focused goal setting WITHOUT the undue pressure of 'roadmaps' and cutoff timeframes ...
it MUST be done with a dedicated team of people - from developers to marketers alike ...
we can expose some of our 'plans' for the CWI-EcoSystem - but NOT a roadmap ...
we can discuss some these 'plans' for the CWI-EcoSystem - but NOT the timeframes unless required ...
we can delegate some of these 'plans' for the CWI-EcoSystem - but NOT freely without some control and restriction ...
the old saying 'good things take time' is SO true in the crypto industry ... thats right - INDUSTRY ... hence our name - ChainWorks Industries ...
when we do things - we do our very best to bring the plans and developments to light in the best way possible ... this does not mean in the shortest time possible - but the BEST way possible ... this entails hatching the idea into a live plan - bringing it to technical existence - development - and then to life ... thats when the testing is done ... this may involve ONLY theTEAM - or close testers for internal purposes - or a public test system ... what ever product or plan we have - the process is the same ... this is why it is exceedingly difficult to adhere to any roadmap - especially with the advent of unforeseen issues that usually do arise at the worst times ...
if the community actually took a 'roadmap' to mean more 'a plan' - then flexibility is inherent - and things can be maneuvered to make way for unforeseen events and other things like catastrophes ...
we will only ever release our products or developments in a 'production' type of capacity - when we are confident all these steps have been made and we can be confident that a release has the minimum risk of issues that MAY occur ... this doesnt guarantee that it is error free - thats impossible in the software / crypto sector ... but it IS possible to make sure that due diligence is done ...
now in saying that - we have a few things we need to publicly announce ...
1 - InfluxCoin Domains ...the domains for influxcoin are now fully registered and current ... tanx to a diligent community member who notified us of the impending state of the domains ... ( which btw - a donation for your honesty and help has been approved and will be sent to you soon - with many tanx from CWI ) ...
the transfer of the older influxcoin.xyz is still in the process - but will more than likely retire at a later date ...
the domains that are registered are ...
- influxcoin.com ...
- influxcoin.net ...
- influxcoin.org ...
- influxcoin.com.au ...
- influxcoin.net.au ...
yup - we are australian - and couldnt help ourselves but to register those australian domains also
...
2 - Discussions ...have been underway focusing on influxcoin initially ... regarding the goal - the focus of influx as a coin - marketing - and ultimately integration into the CWI-EcoSystem for use with our other coins ...
this team are not only designers and evelopers - but are also investors in the coins ...
3 - CWI-Trading ...the trading system is a fully fledged trading backend ( on an internal level for the time being ) that will be attached and become an integral part of the CWI-Pool system ... so CWI-Pool system miners will have an option to be able to trade their coins - rather than dump ... which means mining will have an opportunity to make something good happen for all coins mined - and actually get more out of it while still mining at the same time ...
plan details are bing added to daily - so we need to be very general as to what this will mean to all miners of CWI-Pool - and no specifics of backend trading system will be posted until it is at least in beta designation ... if we have our way with it though - it will be a complete entity ( so it can be a full stand alone system - but also ) integrated tightly with the pool systems we create ... and one awesome trading system ...
4 - theTEAM now officially has a new member ...the one i humbly acknowledge as 'THE best cuda optimizer in the world' ... a very humble man - good honest intentions - a very big heart ... and is one hell of a developer ...
he is more a friend now than just a team member ... and respect goes a very long way in this world - especially with developers ... unlike the developers ive had the displeasure of dealing with and worked with in the past in the crypto industry - where disrespect and intentional scams seem to be the norm in their world ...
he is a complete breath of fresh air - and a highly respected member of the crypto community ... we welcome him aboard - with open arms ... he has asked to remain anonymous for the time being - so we will just call him 'OptDev' for now
...
which brings me to the miner ... our new miner is currently under development - and testing will begin soon ... we may require testing for a few new-ish incarnations of this miner - so that testing phase will begin once we get the mining development underway in a more organized fashion for the testing to take place ...
5 - theFARM has restarted - just ...and the first two machines that are currently active and in production - are being relocated to the GPU department of theFARM ( the new premises as of last week ) ... the ASIC department is also currently being built ( in the current premises ) - starting with the baikal miners ...
initial setup is outlined below - and will continue to grow as we stabilize the mining facility ... development of the mining switcher ( CWI-<yet-to-be-named> ) is slated for development in the coming months to be incorporated into the theGRID ( which the theFARM resides ) ... this allows for automated mining ( various levels - such as 'profit' / difficulty / hashrate ) or manual override mining if there is a specific coin that CWI wishes to accumulate for the CWI-Fund ...
--- GPU department / premises ---
2 machines currently built - with many more being added soon ...
5 x gigabyte aorus 1080ti xtreme - fedora 25 x64 ...
--- ASIC department / premises ---
2 x baikal cube ( 300mh ) - x11 x13 x14 x15 qubit quark ...
6 - CWI-Pool server soon to be upgraded ...as a lot of you have noticed that mine on the CWI-Pool system - there is a lot of 'frontend' lag - with the very occasional drop in stratum connection ... this is due to the heavy load that the CWI-Pool server is under at any one time or another whilst running ...
a new dedicated server will be implemented shortly - and will replace this old server in its entirety ... this will mean a full migration will happen - and some disruption to pool operation / mining will happen for a short period of time while the migration takes place ...
there are two ways this can occur ...
1 - all the old settings and daemons / databases are migrated to the new server ... this is a complex time consuming process - which does not guarantee data being kept in tact ...
2 - build the new server with a new fresh installation of the CWI-Pool ... this is a much simpler way of doing this - with a fresh install of the daemons / databases - but also means registrations and account setup will need to be done again in order to populate the user / miner database ...
we prefer the latter of the two (point 2 - less migration work - and less downtime - less issues with data migration ) - but we have yet to hear anyones opinions or comments regarding this ... so if you have an idea or suggestion that you would like to voice - please do ...
7 - CWI-Coins wallets compiled and tested successfully - except one ...below are the links to the latest wallets of our coins for windows and osx ... these wallets specifically are granite ( grn ) - ozziecoin ( ozc ) - influxcoin ( infx ) ...
the droidz wallet can compile fine in linux - but we are having a few issues with the compile for windows and osx ... we are looking into what the causes may be - and seeing what can be done to create a reliable binary for win / osx ... we will publish this when we are successful - and have tested the new wallet thoroughly ...
the wallets are NOT a new codebase or advances in the code ... they are a minor update to the current codebase - whereby the FULL CWI-SeedNodes have been hardcoded into the wallet ( 70seednodes in all when we are finished with the CWI-SeedNode infrastructure build ) ... currently - 19seednodes are fully functional ( with more on the way ) - which is more than enough in our current state to service the network for an easy and smooth and quick sync ...
some of these wallets WILL alarm a 'false positive' in SOME antivirus scanners - due to the IRC node scan and internal Mining Code inherent in the codebase ...
these alerts are NOT virii - they are 'false positives' ... ie - virus scanner will tag them as a POSSIBLE virus / trojan even though they are not ...
we will ensure that in future releases - any of the code that does not need to be there - will not be there ... BUT - with the advent of the new algos we are planning for inclusion in future releases of these wallets - where internal wallet mining is plausible until gpu mining takes over - we will be keeping these portions of the code in tact ... which means they will continue to give 'false positive' alerts on some antiviral scanners ...
if you do not trust these wallets - or our coding system - please do not use them ... simple ...
the code is in git - for those that know how to read the code of the wallets ( or can get someone to verify the code ) here -
https://github.com/chainworksindustries/ ...
but in saying that - they are OFFICIAL CWI-Wallets cross-compiled ( in linux for win / osx ) by a very trusted developer - bumbacoin ( another australian ) - and we have no issue at all running these wallets on any of our windows systems for the full tests ( with port and antivirus scanners active ) ...

### CWI-POOL - UPDATEhi all ...
we have puled down the bta and mue pools for the change / update of daemons ...
- bta have updated the daemon - mue has changed the algo and hardforked ...
- all the pools will also be getting the updated ticker code - depending on which exchange they are one ( except creamcoin - no exchange as of yet ) ...
- all scrypt pools will be updated to the multiple lodiff / hidiff ports and settings ...
this will happen over the coming days - as a full resync is done ... if all is well - the pools will be brought back online ...
these are required updates - so we apologize if there are any inconveniences that occur ... but we will make sure that the downtime is kept to a minimum ...
tanx ...
