🎥 PureVidz.net: Decentralized Streaming WebTorrents 🎥 VIDZ - Trading Now 🎥

[o48o]

This is how i see all of you vidz traders today

Seriously, someone needs to upload Seinfeld now.  Can you?

Not until ipfs is implemented.

IPFS implementation itself is finished but has not been enabled for TV shows yet as they function somewhat different with our current setup.

When submitting a ipfs hash instead of a magnet link, the proper format is ipfs:{hash}. We will be offering full tutorials on how to set up your own ipfs node for those who are interested in seeding content in the coming days. Right now our priority is getting support for TV shows added and continuing to test the stability and scalability of the new setup.

Following the completion of the new web template currently in progress we will be re-designing site functionality to better match the dual webtorrent/ipfs functionality we now offer and to make sure we have plenty of tutorials in place for those who want to submit items.

Thankfully we've already had a number of our submitters start testing the ipfs system and it's working really well so far. Load times for files are generally 5 seconds right now which is a HUGE boost compared to the average speed of webtorrents.


Before anyone panics, we still support web torrent content and will continue to do so but until the technology is adopted by more well established torrent clients (uTorrent being the biggest example), its speed is simply not where it needs to be to roll out the 1.0 version of our site. IPFS offers all the same benefits while also being in our opinion the better technology.

Ok, please also make a tutorial on how to run IPFS through TOR or a VPN, since it's not private by default.

Good call. I'll be needing one of them as well.

Is there a min. and max age of stake?

[igigme77]

I think we can start to tweet to bittrex and poloniex to add vidz

next pascal

pascal is a pump in dump orchestrated by poloniex insiders.  Why would you want that for Vidz?

Update on design:  Coming along well should be ready in the next few days

Can we see what it looks like?

Is there a min. and max age of stake?

https://github.com/purevidz/vidzcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L46 tells:
unsigned int nStakeMinAge = 4 * 60 * 60; // 4 hours
Max age doesn't seem to be set.

The nStakeMinAge variable is actually used in the code (unlike for example COIN_YEAR_REWARD, which is just a doodle sitting there without any function
@Devs: would be nice to clean it up, not to confuse people

When will the signature bounty be started.

New to Vidz, I usually upload alot on private torrents i am on. Going to give this a try, I actually have the full series downloaded on my computer in 1080p. Every single Seinfeld episode, I'll upload it once the update is out

Welcome to the vidz community i think you picked a good coin to invest in and i hope you upload a lot of good action movies.

HI, I am new here.Yes I just invested in VIDZ recently.Looks like this thing can take off

Its listed on Yobit, I think it can go 50x from here?

[AWildKeccakAppears]

I have some reservations about IPFS. It's a distributed file system run by volunteers, but few if any of them are intending to be the bandwidth backbone of a video streaming site. This will just get content from this site blacklisted as soon as it gains any traction. At least with bittorrent those seeding are intending to seed, and those watching provide support for the bandwidth of the torrent, so its a win-win. Moving to IPFS seems to make the site dependent on those running nodes without any benefit for them, which is unsustainable.

I also streamed an entire movie and I seem to be getting it all from one ip address. Seems like a single point of failure. Thoughts?

50x is too much. lets see it stay at 300 for a few days minimum before we start talking moon.

I think you've misunderstood. As we mentioned IPFS is intended to be another streaming method that we've introduced to the platform, content can now be added in the form of a WebTorrent magnet link or an IPFS hash. Secondly, one would have to go awfully far out of their way to blacklist content used entirely on our site specifically because there's no single point of origin. While someone yes might choose to blacklist our gateway, this wouldn't affect our services heavily.

We're not so brazen to think "lets use everyone else as a crutch." We'll be setting up several nodes to be used as IPFS gateways and heavily contribute towards open and public IPFS gateways. Our own nodes will bootstrap off one another and pin each others content, whatever it may be.

Again, I wouldn't word it as we've moved to IPFS but rather it's now another form of uploading content we support. I mentioned before, there's also a lot very cool things IPFS brings to the table like for example dumping our index to a json file regularly, hosting it on IPFS and creating a simple decentralized search index. It's brought a lot of potential to light.

Yobit + Cryptopia is absolutely perfect for the next few weeks.

(1)  Yobit has roughly double the volume of Bittrex... plus it's a global Customer base.

(2)  How is 60 BTC volume today and 13% turnover a problem?

(3)  Traders kill for the 10% spreads we are seeing. It's free money.

(4)  Only a matter of time before the degens on Yobit do a serious VIDZ pump...
And I'm not talking about the little 100% bump we saw today... that is just a warmup.

(5)  It should be Polo by spring.

The issue is that with IPFS being fairly new and not in widespread use, the data used by this site if it gained traction would stand out greatly. A node operator wouldn't have to blacklist the domain or the gateway, just the handful of hashes that were causing the huge amount of bandwidth. On the other hand, if you're running nodes that support the distribution of content for the site, then we're back to single points of failure. I watched a movie a little while ago and the whole thing came from one ip address. How does this set up "route around" legal threats?

And just now it looks like someone dumped a lot and the price just rebounded. A large scale accumulation is going on and I wouldn't be surprised if a few people or groups were not actively trying to stockpile ividz as we speak and if that's true then what we'reseeing now is them trying to battle it out and get as many vidz as possible before the other guys do.

its fun to watch and speculate but then again this is all just my speculation of course so who knows whats really happening.

I watched a movie a little while ago and the whole thing came from one ip address. How does this set up "route around" legal threats?

Manually auditing all those hashes and adding them would really be going out of your way especially with no easy way at this point in time of determining which hashes are used by the site. The same argument you made can be made for any content being served through IPFS that's taking up a lot of bandwidth. It's not a single point of failure, we're running nodes to assist the IPFS network your argument makes the assumption the entire network complies to this mindset of "I haven no incentive to seed these files so let me go out of my way to blacklist them" which is literally the opposite of what IPFS stands for. There's a reason why for example ipfs.pics's gateway for example will still serve you non-image content if you request it... because that's what it's suppose to do.

It came from one IP address because it comes from the gateway server, the gateway server is the one that interacted with many other network nodes to assemble the file blocks. If you inspect the javascript on one of our pages right now we have statically added one IPFS gateway because while we could use other public nodes like ipfs.pics's we know that's not what the intend it to be used for and adhere out of courtesy. We'll be adding more nodes to this list and we'll be adding the functionality to set a preferential IPFS server in your user profile so rather than being served from one of ours, you can set your own.

You should check out the IPFS subreddit, the legalities of running a gateway has been discussed quite a bit on there.

I pay out the a$$ for cable and turbo internet how can we hook up a cable channel or few its time my over priced cable company pays me back

Ealier today i saw a post about mkv files but couldn't find it again lol.

So what is the deal with .mkv files, noticed only mp4 is working. Will the next update support mkv files?

It's not something we've had to time to heavily look into so the current answer is no. I mentioned them because another user said he had a working test/example using MKV files so I asked him to forward me his test data/sample as it would speed things up on our end.

If you're wondering why MKV/non MP4 files are a headache it's because in HTML5 when videos became a standard to the browser, the standard was also that it needed to have a specific video encoding and specific audio encoding (h264 aac). For a long time before videos were natively supported in the browser Flash which is a browser plugin was used as a hack to circumvent this but it meant videos needed to be converted to FLV.
