sell your GPU 
Baikal Giant N - Cryptonight, Cryptonight-lite ASIC miner

this need an hard fork then

that is an option, but let's not rush to conclusions.

I will sell off all but a token position of any CN coin I have mined that does not hard fork to protect itself against the Baikal Giant N. You basically have 2-3 weeks to get your shit together or you can experience what SIA just went through.

What if the baikal already has support for the new monero PoW? This is what I mean with "don't rush to conclusions". You risk double damage. Let's study the baikal and all the PoW options we have and decide carefully. A hard fork is not something to take lightly.

i doubt they can already, is the monero pow just a change in some parameters like the different equihash?

This is a good news indeed. I hope to see ITNS recover from its dip soon. 

[pdiogo]

We had a little discussion about merge mining with xdn.
Now Im writing pluses and minuses of it and ll post it here.
For now I want everyone who has his opinion about it to take a word.
TY!

Hi!

Care to elaborate a little? What does this mean exactly?

[Jon88]

I'm sure you'll come back here pretty soon.
That will show you didn't sell :-)

https://stocks.exchange/trade/ITNS/BTC

You can buy my IntenseCoins for 79 satoshi each.

Price: 0.00000098

 

Now that weak-hands sold all their coins, we can go to the moon with a full stock.

Price: 0.00000057

That didn't go too well for you, your moon mission. HAHA

Thanks for the update.
This look indeed like going in the good direction.

(...)in this phase has allowed our products to be designed with supreme flexibility(...)

Very nice consideration. We never know if modifications may be necessary in the future.
But flexibility and scalability appears to be critical on such topic.
Good luck with the HAProxy, Dispatcher and all the architecture - Those first two look like some of the critical and key points.

Congratz for the XMR merge, it looks very nice !
Keep up the great work

don't know the reason why. ITNS's price drops much faster than other CN coins. Although intense has its problems, most CN coins suffer from the same problems. (e.g. ASIC miner, bad exchange, no new features.)

[fengxia]

Why don't you spend money on the trading platform? ITNS is a good project, but it lacks sufficient liquidity.

Most probably because people are looking into doing some immediate profit rather than supporting long term projects.
From my end, I'm ok with that. Intense team communicates and does some progress over the product. Just a matter of time

Thanks. Really needed it.

I don't know much about VPN. Is Shadowsocks also a possibility to be added later?

Hi, I have a couple of questions:

1. you will run service discovery platform. What about dependency between SDP and rest of the network? What if SDP is unavailable for some reason?
2. what is the purpose of HAproxy on client side?
3. what about QoS on VPN server side? As I know OpenVPN does not have built-in QoS features, do you plan to use third-party component for this?  
4. any plans to implement lite version of client software without local copy of blockchain?

Thanks

thanks a lot for linux v1.5-beta version

I can appreciate why this is a concern for you. Pricing is going to fluctuate. We are working on other exchanges which should add additional volume for trading outside of Stocks.Exchange. We will let the community know if we have information about a new exchange.

From our Project Manager Vladimir Jirasek

1. you will run service discovery platform. What about dependency between SDP and rest of the network? What if SDP is unavailable for some reason?

Without SDP there is no way to discover server nodes. We will design and operate SDP to reflect its importance.

2. what is the purpose of HAproxy on client side?

It is used for the Proxy service and establishes TLS tunnel to the server side HAProxy. Client side HAProxy then listens on localhost for a browser to use it as a proxy. The tunnel then transports proxy request/response traffic to the server side forward proxy. Think of it as an encrypted netcat for the proxy traffic. As we will control both client and the server side of the encrypted tunnel, we will protect against typical TLS attacks, such as man in the middle attack, TLS cipher downgrade.

3. what about QoS on VPN server side? As I know OpenVPN does not have built-in QoS features, do you plan to use third-party component for this?

OpenVPN does have option -passtos which allows for the VPN packages to inherit ToS bits of the inside packets. We will keep this option enabled. Additionally, we do plan to use OS to limit bandwidth where necessary. On Linux this can be easily achieved by using tc command: https://github.com/firehol/netdata/wiki/You-should-install-QoS-on-all-your-servers

4. any plans to implement lite version of client software without local copy of blockchain?

Not firm plans but yes we are looking to develop wallet-vpn client software that would use trusted remote Blockchain daemons.

Hope this answer your questions
