You can join ALQO masternode pool now on https://pool.stakinglab.io
No minimum ALQO requiered.

how safe is this service?

A big problem with shared MNs is, that you have to give your coins out of hand... that's a lot of trust in a (almost) trustless network

To my knowledge, there has never been a recorded incident with shared-ALQO-MNs. Moritz, ALQO-core, manages over a dozen shared-ALQO-MNs and the community has benefitted greatly from ALQO's professional service. I invite you to join the ALQO discord server and everyone will be happy to get you started. Importantly, whatever you decide on (when making a commitment on shared masternodes), verify the credentials of the offering with an official admin (best place is on Discord typically, and this is certainly true for reaching ALQO's administration team members). Good luck. Currently ALQO's number of active masternodes is at its all-time high, and it has been rising consistently, despite the price falling significantly. This is a strong indication of the health of the community, and represents currently 71% of the total coins locked:

Marked this coin, plan to setup a node

[hp162133]

missed the livestream. Will there be some sort of writeup too? (I know it would be quite huge)

Of course ;-)

This is the summary of the live session which took place last saturday. I tried to stick to the official agenda and there might be one or two points missing but the guys packed that half an hour full with information which makes it not easy to sum this up.
Link to the video: https://youtu.be/WmT3dBgm9NM

Introduction of all core-members

Nastja Deines (best looking team member making artwork and design)
Enes Kayali (frontend developer whos rather working than talking)
Kaan Hamarat (the boss himself)
Kevin Collmer (lead developer)
Moritz Heimberg (the one doing masternode hosting and shared masternodes)

ZeroCoin Implementation

What is ZeroCoin? What are the Pros and Cons? Is it optional? Which problems we were facing implementing it? When will ZeroCoin be available?

Zerocoin is ready! Its smoothly running on the testnet right now. There is some serious testing ongoing as it’s a protocol level implementation which could potentially screw up the whole blockchain. It will be released with the Liberio wallet latest. The team plans to release the protocol 1 or 2 weeks earlier with a new version of the Qt wallet.
Its faster, better and stronger than the actual coin mixing implementation. It will be the most recent version of the protocol with all the fixes implemented the other coins had problems with and some additional fixes by Kevin which leads the team to name it “zerocoin+”.

Coinfolium Major Update

What changes we made at the frontend? What changes were done at the backend? What about already existing portfolios at the current website version? What is coming in the future?

Coinfolium is almost done. Now running with a complete discrete database full of crypto data which will enable coinfolium to offer a lot more statistics and indights into the coin than before. Coinfolium will be a lean product which can be compared to the bigger players who provide portfolio managers and is inspired by and built for traders. With the already existing fanbase of coinfolium atm there is a lot to come in the future with this “planet” within the ALQO ecosystem.
Existing portfolios will be easily imported and also the classic (legacy) version will be available though they do not think it will be used very often anymore.

Community-Manager

Why we need more Community-Manager? What is their daily job? Did they get paid?

We definitely need more community managers as there is a constant inflow of new members into the community. Also to keep the chats clean of trolls and people who are simply not beneficial to the whole community. The future plans are to hire these people for them to become members of the core team. At the moment these guys (incl. me) are doing it for free and at least for my side I can state that this completely OK ;-)
So if you are interested in doing something for ALQO this is definetely a place to jump into!

ALQO Funding

What is the goal of the ALQO Funding project? What is going to be the first goal? Will the ALQO Funding project remain after the first goal?

Its decided to make the funding now instead of a developers fee. First target is 5BTC to get listed on coinexchange.io as they promised to give us a ALQO/BTC and ALQO/ETH pair for this amount of listing fee. Secondly there will be the funding of the listing fee for the next exchange. Funding will later also be used for advertising and marketing campaigns.

Governance (Voting System)

How is it going to work? When is the voting system going to be available?

Will be implemented soon and will work pretty easy as its built into the liberio wallet. You will have “vote points” according to your balance and you can distribute these vote points to the vote options you have for a topic.

DevFee
Are we still planning on a "developer"-fee? What are the pros and cons about develooper-fees in general? Why did we decide to try the ALQO Funding project first?

It has been decided not to introduce a dev fee. The way to go is funding first and if it will not work out then there needs to be another round of discussion around it but earliest when the governance system is 100% rolled out!

Exchanges

Are there any news? How many exchanges we are in contact right now? When is the next listing on a top50 exchange going to happen? Who paid for the listing-fee?

Team is on contact with 2 big exchanges (TOP50) whereas one will list ALQO in the end of February. Funding for this exchange will be asked for after the 5BTC have been raised for coinexchange.io.


Liberio

Whats the current progress? When it will be released?
 
Will be released in the end of February (date: feb 17th) with a major update! Liberio UI/UX is finished by 90%. Backend is ready so there is not much time needed anymore. There are going to be some screenshots available in the next days.

TestNet Release

Why are we releasing a testnet? When it will be released? How far the testnet will be ahead of the stable-branch?

Many community members and “outsiders” have asked about the missing commits in our github stable branch. Testnet was up to now kept privately but will released to the public in the next days. At the moment the testnet is probably 4 weeks ahead of the stable branch. Zerocoin is running and parts of liberio are in it already and you will be able to contribute to the testnet as soon as it is released.

Bitfineon

Whats the current progress? When Bitfineon will be published? Who will be invited to test the demo-version?

Will be the biggest planet in the ALQO ecosystem. We are making progress – there is going to be some bitfineon snippets (like screenshots) in the next weeks. There will be a demo version with “fake balances and coins” for us to check out the system how the trade engine works and how fast the system actually is. There will be people invited to test the demo version out. Release is expected in the first weeks of march after the focus to liberio shifts towards bitfineon.
Fiat trading will not be released with the first version of bitfineon. Fiat will be implemented as soon as the EU has figured out their crypto regulations but is expected to be not that far behind the initial realease.
Release date is not fixed but nothing has been changed: Q3/Q4 is the plan.

Very detailed thread on basic information about the project. I am waiting for Bitfineon exchange.

waiting for github...

A temporary 100% ALQO governance system is online. This system is not as convenient as it will be within the Liberio framework but it will enable us to have votings from now on. At the moment there is a "test vote" ongoing to check it out for everybody. To vote you just need to follow 7 simple steps.

Step 1:

Go to https://governance.alqo.org/ and click on the left navigation bar on "Voting"

Step 2:

Open your ALQO-Wallet. Go to "Send" and click the "Inputs"-Button. (This button might not be visible - to make it appear make sure you have the "Coin-Control Feature" activated.) In the "Coin Selection"-Window you can see all your wallets and their amount. This is important as your ALQO is equivalent of your voting power.

Copy the wallet address you want to vote with. If you have multiple addresses with ALQO on you can for sure vote with every single one!

Step 3:

Get back to the Governance-System and paste the ALQO-Address you decided to vote with. Clicking on "Submit" will show how much Voting Points you got. Make sure to choose on which vote you want to participate and also choose between the given options.

Step 4:

Copy the Voting-Message to your clipboard. This message includes your wallet-address, the vote you are participating on as well as the option you have chosen.

Step 5:

Back in your ALQO-Wallet, click on File -> Sign Message.

This will open a new window to sign messages based on your private-key. Please keep in mind that signing a message doesn't mean we or anyone else knows your private-key!

Step 6:

In the upper input-field you enter your wallet-address again you are trying to vote with.

Now paste in the Voting-Message in the big text-area and click on "Sign Message" to sign the message. This will proof you are the owner of the wallet-address.

Copy the Signature generated to your clipboard.

Step 7:

The last step is to get back to the Governance-System and enter the Voting Signature you just generated and paste it into the corresponding Voting Signature field.

To finalize your vote you now click on "Vote".

This is fantastic. Governance features are my favorite in MN coins.

Do MN owners only get to vote?  Or does every holder of ALQO, based on the number of coins that they have in their wallet?

Edit:

Step 2:

Open your ALQO-Wallet. Go to "Send" and click the "Inputs"-Button. (This button might not be visible - to make it appear make sure you have the "Coin-Control Feature" activated.) In the "Coin Selection"-Window you can see all your wallets and their amount. This is important as your ALQO is equivalent of your voting power.

Copy the wallet address you want to vote with. If you have multiple addresses with ALQO on you can for sure vote with every single one!

Exciting. Holders can vote too?  Are the votes given on a 1:1 ratio of Alqo/vote?  Could the team clarify a bit on this?  I apologize if it has been asked somewhere else.

Keep up the good work team.

[Alqo]

Every 1 ALQO equals 1 VOTEPOWER. Means you need at least 1 ALQO to be able to vote.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCE:

We are happy to announce that our initial 100% governance test vote was successful and ran clean without any errors. As the system has proven to work smoothly, we would also like to announce that the first "real" vote will start tomorrow at 18:00 UTC.

What will the vote be about?
- As we mentioned in our last live Q&A session, we are going to let the community vote on whether or not a developer fee will be introduced.

When will the vote start?
- The vote will start on February 13th, 2018 at 18:00 UTC.

How long will the vote run for?
- The vote will go on for 72 hours (3 days) and will end at 18:00 UTC on February 17th.

How can I participate?
- First, please make sure you collect all of your spare ALQO back into your wallet, from any exchanges or other services. Once the vote starts, we will create a snapshot of the blockchain, which means that you will only be able to vote using the ALQO balance you hold on February 13th at 17:59:59 UTC. Any ALQO sent or received after the snapshot will NOT count towards your voting power. This is to prevent a malicious actor from double voting using the same ALQO balance by moving it between wallets.

As always you can find a how-to-vote guide here: https://governance.alqo.org/howto

We are also going to upload a video tutorial within the voting time frame. Most likely tomorrow or on Wednesday.

Thank you! But you should really check the governance.alqo.org/howto it's super simple 7 steps and does not take longer than 3 Minutes, even for a first timer. Since we are not sure if we will be able to deploy the Tutorial video this week.[/b]
