[ANN][SEM] Semux - Official Thread

[SIGNW]

The info is from Semux discord pools channel (pinned message)

Thanks--I made a spreadsheet with that information a while ago, but there are many pools that I'm interested in the 50-100 ranking range. I'll join the discord and see what information I can dig up.

Does anyone know the actual rate of 100_tokenpar_com pool? Out of a sudden I am receiving much smaller payouts. This happened on 01.april.2018. Has this pool raised their fee or something have changed in semux network?

it got a stupid amount of votes, so now it pays worst of all pools.

[Lucasgabd]

every Saturday applications will get processed, so it depends when you registered, however snapshot happened on 1st of April

so first airdrop payments will come tomorrow?

Sunday, April 15 will be when the airdrop will be sent to your wallets.

thanks for the heads up!
looking forward

I think I received the airdrop. hooray. 

Could someone explain the delegates system? Is it some kind of dPoS where I give the staking power of my coins to someone so he can create the next block and in return gives me a share?
Is there a guide or tutorial how to set it up?

[bakgwei]

I also received my coins today from the ETH airdrop...

Basically, yes.   But, if you have enough SEM, you don't have to vote for someone else (their pool) as you can vote for yourself (your own pool).

Easy to setup.
Simply setup a wallet (ideally on a dedicated machine connected 24/7)
Burn the 1000 SEM to start a deligate - select a name for it.
Then, get about 40,000 votes (currently).

Once those are done, the list is updated every 200 blocks (just under 2 hours).  You are then a validator and forging blocks.

I see, thanks. I don't have enough SEM to do that unfortunately. Also, how would I get the 40k votes? Bribery, blackmail or offering more percentage of the block reward to the voters? 

So in case I want to vote only, where can I see the votes I have? I have 20 SEM in total. Once I vote, I'll get a share of the delegates block rewards, right?

[Maicol792]

There is no list to put in.
If you're not able to sync, it's likely a firewall or corrupted DB.
Either open up the firewall ports or delete the database directory to let it start over.

ok thanks .. think wifi connection problem .. on direct lan cable no problem to sync .. thanks for help

You could buy the 40k votes.  It's what I did.
or, you could make a post that you're looking for voters and offer a super low fee to those people that are willing to go to your pool.   Or, offer than you're starting a new pool with 0% fee for a couple of weeks.
20 sem = 20 votes.   (You get 1 vote for each sem you have).

Yes, if you vote on a deligate, you get a share of the total reward.   Just make sure you're voting on a deligate that is paying.
They really all charge a fee since they're running the software and likely paying a fee themselves for the server, etc. 

With only 20 sem (about $20 worth), you're not going to be able to make much or even start your own deligate though.  Quite frankly, you're not going to make anything, because after voting, you will be losing money.  So, unless you do a cash injection or get someone to support you, it's best not to do anything.

It seems only around 250 address applied for first-week ethereum bounty. It is really less than i expected.

Or people have waited on the sideline for the first week.

AIRDROP UPDATE
~

Hi mdodong,

There have been many rounds of SEMUX airdrops, so my question (mainly for my curiosity) is when SEMUX will be listed on its first official exchange?
I think SEMUX community need to have official exchanges, not OTC. OTC is good, I don't deny the fact, but it might be better if traditional exchanges listed SEMUX on their platforms.

[shaggy404]

so for the noobs, I go to myetherwallet.com --> sign message --> in the message field I paste my Semux address --> this is what I get in return

{
  "address": "0x8xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "msg": "0xfxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "sig": "0x0axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "version": "3",
  "signer": "web3"
}

What should I paste into the airdrop form where it asks for the signature? Everything? Only the hash from the "sig" line?

you paste the 0x0axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx after the sig.
"sig": "0x0axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",

Thank mdodong, that's simple to do. But I think copy & paste all information "{  "address": "0x8xxxxxxxxxxxxx............... "web3"}, that would be eligible, too. Hope I will right.

I have paste all information too. But on Sign Message MEW, i just write "semux", am okay to go?

Thank you

You should have written your actual semux address and paste only the info after "sig" inside the quote marks.

OMG, so am i can't participate?
Because i can't edit anymore

We remove all invalid entries on Saturday, so you will be able to submit again 

Hey dev,

I seem to be in the same boat. I did some mistake in filling up the form and now I can't resubmit. I thought the invalid entries were cleaned up on Saturday but it still shows a message saying the address is already registered. Can you let us know when we can re-apply?

Thanks for your support!
