The old version was still up past the deadline, so I didn't want to say anything publically until they successfully put us in maintenance.

Thank you Rob, it works now!

What is a good way to run the ipfs daemon on its own?
(If if I run it over SSH it consumes the window)

I think we will need to put it in a machine startup script - like /etc/init.d/servicename, but for now since we are just in volunteer mode you can run:
ipfs daemon &

Until we figure out if the mining program will start it automatically.  

If you want you can write a machine startup script for ubuntu, and give it to us and Ill add it to the ipfs document.
We really just need the machine to run "ipfs daemon" on reboot.  

EDIT: It looks like the daemon does exit if its already running, so I suppose we could do it through crontab once an hour if we want to pipe output to devnull.   Similar to our watchman entry but maybe once an hour.

Hmmm so "ipfs daemon" itself in crontab didnt seem to work,
but I used this .sh script below and called that and it works!

https://gist.github.com/graffen/e0ff7ca4827959beedb15cf15a9df9d5
chmod +x startup_ipfs.sh

crontab -e
*/5 * * * * /home/start_ipfs.sh > /dev/null 2>&1

Someone asked me what a Spork is, its a feature from DASH

"Sporks are variables turned on or off by a private key"

Commands:

Code:

spork active
exec datalist spork

Is there a sweeping function for a wallet? I was wondering if it's possible to do something like byteball with textcoins?

I don't think it is a great feature because you can send all your funds to one output address that belongs to you and that's what sweep does. The behavior for Proof of Distributed Computing (PoDC) tend to sweep to your main wallet address tied to your CPID (your main wallet address). I say "tend to" because small amounts of change addresses do not sweep into the main wallet address sometimes.

my friend asked me this :can i to upload my 200GB private datas on/to BIBLEPAY chain?

and pls write it on FIRST PAGE and on MAIN WEBs that BBP is only CPU coin= more ppl told me that they didnt know it


BiblePay-only CPU COIN ✟ Governance ✟ Help Orphans ✟ PODC Cancer Mining ✟ Deflationary ✟


any questions

1. what is this? https://www.biblepay.org/freebbp/#biblepayuniversity
2. where is on main web biblepay.org 1click masternode guide from MIP?

thanks

[togoshigekata]

Excellent start.

So on the faucet, I think the faucet would go bankrupt if we turn off the team requirement and leave it at 1000 bbp.  I think we will either need to keep as-is and let them change the team, pull the faucet reward, and if they want change the team back they may do so.  If we remove the team, I believe we need to lower the reward to 50 bbp.  So for now, let's leave it as-is, and require team biblepay for the faucet reward.

For the UTXO requirement:  Yes, they will need 2 BBP per RAC to receive the PODC minimum rewards.

Thanks Rob!,

Given your feedback, I think we should leave out mention of the faucet,

I did find that with Staking, we only require:
0.8 BBP per 1 RAC for 10% reward
18 BBP per 1 RAC for 100% reward
https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/87d751ea7eee9c97ded2b747b312253dc772f238/src/podc.cpp#L249

So if a cruncher has say 30k RAC, they would need
24k BBP = $12, for 10% reward
540k BBP = $270, for 100% reward

and the crunchers will be thinking, how much BBP will I make in a day? How soon will I make back my stake investment?

(Personal RAC / Team RAC) * Daily PODC Superblock Budget * PercentReward = ~Daily Payout

========================================
========================================

Okay so here is Draft #2:

========================================
========================================

Steps:

0. World Community Grid crunchers, make sure your My Profile has "Display my data" enabled, Click Save
https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/viewMyProfile.do

===

1. Download BiblePay Wallet
https://www.biblepay.org/wallet/

===

2. Buy BiblePay (BBP) coins and Send them to your BiblePay Wallet

To be rewarded BiblePay (BBP) coins for your Recent Average Credit (RAC) every day,
you will need to buy and store at least a small amount of BiblePay (BBP) coins in your wallet first,
this is called "staking".

To get 10% of your RAC rewarded, you need 0.8 BBP per 1 RAC in your wallet
To get 100% of your RAC rewarded, you need 18 BBP per 1 RAC in your wallet

BiblePay is typically purchased using Bitcoin which can be purchased using local currency.

A. Figure out how many BiblePay coins you will need and how much it will cost
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/biblepay/

B. Buy Bitcoin (BTC)
https://www.coinbase.com/

C. Transfer Bitcoin and Buy BiblePay (BBP)
https://www.southxchange.com/Market/Book/BBP/BTC

D. Send the BiblePay coins to your BiblePay Wallet

===

3. Link your BOINC account inside the BiblePay Wallet

"Distributed Computing" tab >> Enter Account >> Click "Associate"

===

4. Keep BiblePay Wallet running 24/7 so it can send daily staking updates

and now you'll get paid BiblePay coins every day!

Daily Payout = (Personal RAC / Total Team RAC) * Daily PODC Superblock Budget * PercentReward

You can look up your account by CPID to view payouts:

In addition to what Sun said, if you want to shrink your wallets outputs down, one easy way is to go into Coin Control and click select all (just making sure you arent spending your Sanctuary locked funds), then send these to one of your receiving addresses, and all those small outputs will get consolidated into one big payment to you.

[bible_pay]

In an effort to prevent some of the turmoil we experienced in the past and operate in love here in BiblePay's Forum, I added these rules to the OP post:


Forum Rules:

1. Do not make assumptions or false statements - For example, if you are not 100% sure of a statement being fact, you must state "in my opinion... " or "I believe...", especially with technical posts that could mislead investors. 

2. Talk in a nice tone and manner, be polite and appreciative.  Avoid swearing.

3. Be willing to do work/research/experience, or Find someone who can, and assume other community members are busy.  This is a group effort.

On the .8 bbp per rac I suppose you can go with that based on the snap-to-grid feature (I was going by our exec totalrac rules which attempt to make a small buffer in case the user is increasing in RAC quickly).  The snap-to-grid was designed more to allow the sancs to come to a consensus (not really for calculations), but in the spirit of getting in a new user at the absolute minimum I suppose we can use it.

On this payout calculation:
Daily Payout = (Personal RAC / Total Team RAC) * Daily PODC Superblock Budget * PercentReward

Could you either tell them that the PercentReward is currently 1.00 (due to the outcome of the vote for non-biblepay teams), or simply take it off?  As I think it might confuse the average person to prevent them from calculating the payout.

You can also say the Total Team rac is available in : exec totalrac (currently 7773453).

Thanks for making this draft Togo.

2. where is on main web biblepay.org 1click masternode guide from MIP?

thanks

1.  For a 200GB upload, the cost would be 21,474,800 BBP before the upload occurs (to the orphanage), so imho, I doubt your friend will want to upload his video.

2.  Edit: Based on the proposal that is in, I added CPU and Masternodes to our banner.   FYI All:  The banner is now at its max character limit (hence the reason no spaces between the crosses).


3.  BBP University is a feature that was started that I disabled in the pool.  I believe we should ask Jaap to remove it from the web page for now - Jaap we can talk about it offline.

4.  I added the 1 click Sanctuary script to the OP.  URL:

4. (@slovakia) I already added the One Click Masternode Install Script to the the guide (http://wiki.biblepay.org/Create_Sanctuary_2). But I have now also made it clear on the Masternode page that we have such a script.

5. I have removed the mintnodes mention until further notice.

6. I added the October-Update as a news-item (also on Medium).
https://www.biblepay.org/biblepay-october-2018-update/
https://medium.com/biblepay-news
@znffal: do you have time to contribute to Medium again, or should we look for another way to keep it up-to-date?

7. Is anyone interested in creating newsletters? I can create them based on the weekly updates I get from Togo. But maybe someone has a better idea?

8. Habib wrote an article about BiblePay: https://www.kryptogist.com/bbp-a-digital-currency-with-social-and-economic-assets-and-benefits/ I think it's a good introductory article

[zthomasz]

I'm curious to know who is politicizing the wallet prayer feature.  I would also like to see/hear discussion about whether we should be providing a platform to publicize personal political views.  

Seems to me it will open the door to all kinds of conflicting posts and arguments.

I suggest we post prayers and prayer requests for government leaders without endorsing political parties.

Thank you Rob, it works now!

What is a good way to run the ipfs daemon on its own?
(If if I run it over SSH it consumes the window)

https://superuser.com/questions/513496/how-can-i-run-a-command-from-the-terminal-without-blocking-it

Can I just add ipfs daemon to crontab to run every X minutes?

So now, for sanity's sake, you can upload a new attachment (using send money in QT), double click on the transaction row, change the URL by replacing the DNS name with your sanc public IP, and try to pull the file in a web browser and verify it works, and it should work immediately - when IPFS is working its very fast as you all will observe in the next version of biblepay (when you list the orphan list for example) (In the current version we have a bug that slows it down, and prevents the menu from closing properly- being fixed now).

for 200GB datas 21M BBP   

what is formula?  1GB=100 000BBP? how big is space then? dont understand it ....

wont be mining with my space? example:  i have 10TB space=i get 10.000 bbp

thanks for description

We charge .0001 BBP per byte uploaded.  Please test it - send an attachment to someone.

Our upload limit is currently 90 megs; this is because the sancs only have 20 gig hard drives.

This might change when we release the IPFS mining proof of concept, but for now in Prod, the rules are based on file sharing  - not space sharing - and Sanc storage - not miner storage.

If you are asking what your reward is for IPFS mining - the document is not released yet.
