1000 PhD's are skeptical of darwinism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQgOjHsMEeE&feature=youtu.beThis is the kind of base element that should be in BiblePay. An exposure to evidence that God exists when you use certain features of BiblePay. |

I'm trying to understand how that relates to Biblepay. Are you seeking to turn away Christians who do believe that evolution is real? What's the link to BBP? Are you the person who keeps posting political content in the wallet prayer? Or are we free to post our thoughts about Christianity here? Because I have collected some pretty radical interpretations of the teachings that might be interesting. In case the video is on-topic for this thread, let me share these ideas: There's not a lot of evidence I can find that evolution and Christianity are incompatible. Take this: there was a time that people did not know that black holes existed in God's universe. When we learned of them, did we think they were unreal? No, we updated our concept of God's universe to include black holes. Science will have to update its models too. That statistic of 1000 PhDs not believing evolution is misleading. In just the top 5 countries in the world, there are about 150,000 PhDs graduates...each year. So at best that 1000 PhDs represent a very, very small portion of the whole. So, it would imply that most Christian doctors actually do believe in evolution. Interesting. I want to thank Rob for bringing up this link and inviting further discussion about a fascinating topic--evolution and Christianity. I look forward to hearing others' opinions on the subject. |

I want to thank Rob for bringing up this link and inviting further discussion about a fascinating topic--evolution and Christianity. I look forward to hearing others' opinions on the subject. These 1,000 signatures are just from the movement who signed on to fight the lefts campaign to discredit scientists who are skeptical of darwinism (in contrast to the % of total phds). I dont have the link for the campaign handy. Yes, of course this forum can be used for Christian edification, as long as it doesnt pollute it too much and is geared toward potential BiblePay improvements and is positive. I do maintain that if we create a topic that deserves further attention we really should create a dedicated thread for it on forum.biblepay, but of course this is a good place to throw brand new ideas in. I'm constantly looking for the Best way to spend my time to extend Gods Kingdom. So from my standpoint I sometimes throw things out that change the priorities (the most bang for the buck) for development and for BiblePay. (How does that fit, it fits because Im designing features that are consumed from Christian spaces and a Christian economy in the future, things like voting on Christian videos and content in Christian spaces, so it is relevant). As far as if darwinism is valid and all that, I started to work on a web page for that a while back, I think it is best if I stop here and finish that first before I get the middle of the discussion. EDIT: On political content, no, Im not the one who posted Vote for Trump, Im the one who posts stuff like we need to ask the country to repent for its behavior. I go as far as calling some of the Left disciples who believe in abortion to birth laws disciples of Satan, but I dont go as far as posting political beliefs in the chain. I do say pray for Trump because hes our leader in the US. |

BiblePay pool ( https://pool.biblepay.org) is now giving away 5000 bbp to new POG users. Head to the faucet if you are new user to get started now. |

There is a theology corner on forum.biblepay.org that can focus the discussion. https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=371.new#newI'm in a similar boat as you. The Old Testament (Genesis) has to be taken into the context at the time it was written and the understanding of the universe and God's supremacy over it. |

... For one, we will see distinct nicknames (thats good for accurate reports)....
Those nicknames are good, but you can watch out for "cheaters". I really don't understand why are people trying to hide behind someone else, when they can choose the name really free and untraceable. I'm talking about someone who is hiding behind my nick... My "real" nick is orbis, and someone is hiding behind me with nick orbispictus. I really don't understand what these people wants to reach... jealousy, anger, grudge or what... it's really interresting  PS: you can use nick for in wallet chat if you want  |

PS: you can use nick for in wallet chat if you want wallet chat is still testnet only. If you can switch your nickname around, I wouldn't trust the chat. subway
I was thinking rather than e-mail, if you send a BBP tx with an encrypted message to the public address, then the private key can decrypt the message with the gift card code. I think this is more reliable than e-mail. I tried playing around with sign message and verify message, but it wasn't exactly what I had in mind... but I guess if the message was encrypted in tx and could be decrypted automatically by the right private key holder, the process would be easy. |

** C-CEX ALERT **
Please don't deposit or withdraw BBP from C-CEX until further notice.
We have a ticket in for them to go into maintenance and upgrade, we will post again after the wallet is ready.

I can switch my nickname around on Discord or SouthXChange or PM also... Just look at Slovakia's he has 9 on SX. I'm aware of this problem though, and of course this will be taken into consideration for voting on objects (by using a keypair). I was not eluding to using the chat nickname for anything important. I was really just alluding to rather seeing a distinct list than a bloated list of duplicated wallets. It may still be valuable to engage the POG list for something (like prayer campaigns) or something in the future. |

I support Proof of Giving (POG), Proof of Distributed Computing (PODC) is awesome, but it has its flaws, relying on centralized servers for verification, etc, Swongel pointed this stuff out long ago when the work was first being started: https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?action=profile;u=223 >>> "Recent Posts", I think his best posts were deleted though sadly, but Rob later mentioned Swongel being right about some stuff when he started his work on POG I think the flipping point for Rob was a while back mentioned he tried to get 5 "regular" people in his life into BiblePay mining, none of them could set it up LOL, I think a lot of you do not realize how smart you guys are at computers compared to regular people, [I had to teach my Mom how to create New Folders on her PC a few years ago LOL] I dont know how things will end up, the crypto winter has been brutal, but we shall see how it goes! |

Update on CryptoBridge,
A while back I mentioned that Stepollo direct messaged me on Discord offering us a free upgrade
Well, when Rob was ready for the exchanges to upgrade,
I notified CryptoBridge, and it turns out Stepollo's offer had no backing,
he didnt have permission yet from the higher ups at CryptoBridge...
they still havent upgraded us nor do I believe they have any plans or intentions to upgrade us without payment...

Don't completely discard PODC,make BBP a multi-algorithm pow currency，everyone can mine bbp using the algo he likes.

Hello, I'm still trying to understand how POG is working... I already went through the docs but I still have some doubts. 1) Why I can't send Tithe from the UI?  What does Qty, AvgAge, Tithability mean? 2) How can I know the age of my coins? And how can I send "young" coins in order to keep the old ones for Titheing later. When I send coins, I can't select what coins to send. 3) I have enabled (tithe=1) following the instructions but my tithe is always 0. ("My Tithes": 0) Sorry for my basic questions. I was so happy with PODC... But I need to accept the change and I Would like to understand how it works. Thank you. |

somewhere in options/wallet select coin control feature
then on send tab select imputs and you will see all coin stacks and ages (confirmations)
you can also select which coins to use

If POG difficulty is high at that moment it will try to tithe and fail as you need very old coins in big chunks. |

Thank you vahtis and cupulo for the information shared. It clarifies a lot of things. How much bbp the auto-tithe (tithe=1) will tithe? And what does it means the following numbers:  Does red means bad? I mean, does the red color means that I have not enough age/coins to tithe? Or these numbers are always displayed in red? Edit: Now the 2nd line shows all 0.  Why is everything set to 0 now? |

I am preparing a "PoG report" auxiliary screen in the core client that shows coins that meet the difficulty requirement, and which ones are close to it, so it's easier for the end user. I hope I can finish it this week for testing. |
