Updated the graph on DWS burns vs rewards. I stacked the bar graph. Red is the amount you burned. Green is the net gain you receive (assuming no superblock issues). The yellow is the DWU unit which is the percentage net gain. As you can see, as more BBP enters the BBP pool, the DWU starts to decline.  No one knows how the economics of sanctuary rewards will change in the next 12 months with RandomX merged mining. For now, the trend with sanctuary rewards look positive. If that remains the 7day ROI is better than DWS. For now, the trend looks good. I would argue, if you are optimistic with the last 7day ROI, sanctuary rewards pay better than DWS. If you are more conservative and look at the last 90 days, then after the cost server hosting, I'd argue it is on par with current DWS pay out rates. If you have funds to create a sanctuary for 4.55M BBP, you can receive rewards and decide later to dissolve it later if you want a predictable ROI based on the DWU value (net percentage gain). As of yesterday: SanctuaryCostUSD: $1,002.97 ROI_90d 24.5% ROI_60d 24.5% ROI_30d 27.9% ROI_7d 38.9% Source data

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. Hybrid server-assisted clients like Electrum get a lot of their network information from centralized servers, but they also check the server's results using blockchain header data. This is perhaps somewhat more secure than either server-assisted clients or header-only clients.

** 1 Million BiblePay PODC Giveaway** - **ENDS JANUARY 31st!** Get rewarded BBP coins for contributing to real CPU Only science research!PODC = Proof of Distributed Computing PODC Setup Guide: https://wiki.biblepay.org/PODC_Setup= Giveaway Terms and Conditions: - You must be a PODC researcher, in the biblepay leaderboard as of January 31st, 2020- You must be contributing to research to the World Community Grid project - You must have more than 100 RAC (Recent Average Credit) Reference: https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=485.0 Looks like we have 59 participants in the leaderboard! I look forward to calculating the results on block 173,307. Good luck! "hash": "ec57a81e053ce1e61b299d4c0168c56d7c0214f817af30b35ddf8ad675209a0f", ec57 hex = 60503 decimal Figured out the value of C, but not sure how you applied it to researcher list sans <100 RAC miners. As far as calculating it, I wrote a tiny vb6 subroutine for this that I will post in the thread and re-use if we have another poll. LOL, it looks like I won (vout #52 in block 173245). But since I'm a nice guy I am going to award this to the CPID in position 51 (I'm going to 51 simply because the math of the answer has a floor of 51, and rounding sent it to 52). I will announce the winner next. Yes, you should set a give away for Feb 2020 too!I see the math here. Private Sub PODCWinner() 'bbp podc winner Height = 173307 sblockhash = "ec57a81e053ce1e61b299d4c0168c56d7c0214f817af30b35ddf8ad675209a0f" C = CLng("&HEC57") 'last gsc transaction before 173307: 'getrawtransaction 0841a3066395229b7c0b2aae6b06f35c57a0df6ddc602ed5919a2c155f783ede 1 SuperBlockCount = 56 'researcher count minus pow miner tx minus sanctuary tx B = 65535 / SuperBlockCount A = CInt(C / B) VOUT = A + 1 'First vout *after* pow and sanctuary - (Note, if we land on a CPID with < 100 RAC, we will move to the next payable ordinal - even if we need to reset the counter from the beginning). '(This is to discourage people from making fake cpids to get votes) 'Winner = #52 (1 before Rob) : BQWhLA82SxL8PW5LGnwKj8qeog3k3JETBZ (who had a 661.69 reward at height 173245) End Sub
Ok, yes, let's offer another 1 million reward for the February 2020 (PODC jumpstart giveaway). Feel free to promote it Sun, Togo and any others who have been spreading the word. I'm sorry I haven't been on to reply in the last two days, but I've been very busy with the RandomX integration in testnet. I will post an update on the poll thread very soon. From what I can tell, the RandomX concept is going to work, and we will most likely have something to test in testnet within 7 days.

Random: I liked your idea on doing a snapshot of Dash and rewarding Dash holders with free BBP, to entice Dash users into learning about us and potentially becoming investors HEX token did this with Bitcoin, but with some twists, they penalized Bitcoin whales, addresses with over 1k Bitcoin receive less HEX they set a decreasing reward as time goes by, to incentivize claiming sooner than later and they auto-stake 90% of the HEX for a year, so that claimers cant just dump it right away "Over $1.5 Billion dollars of Bitcoin has claimed their free HEX. 168k+ BTC across 24k+ addresses" And a cool thing, I got to learn how to sign a message with my wallet, and this also rewarded me for having my Bitcoin off of any exchanges and in my full control "not your keys, not your coins!" (Please backup your wallet.dat file! https://www.reddit.com/r/BiblePay/comments/7lksp4/backup_walletdat/) = EDIT: Is there any way we could do some sort of referral system? = EDIT 2: Have we used the email list of the biblepay pool to update past users of latest changes?

Just received this message when I did an exec rac:
"Error": "Your CPID is linked to your CPK, but we are unable to find your research records in WCG; most likely because you are not in team BiblePay yet.",
I've been doing just fine over the last several days without being in team Biblepay. Was the team restriction changed again? Thanks!

Team restriction or any other rule has not changed afaik - I am on team Biblepay and I am gettting the same error today. the wcg.rac file seems to be truncated. Normally, it is around 2.3MB (with over 25k CPIDs) but the current file in my bbp folder is 105kB with less than 1k CPIDs.

Ok, looking at this issue (not linked cpids, truncated CPID info): The problem has been resolved. (The technical reason was the WCG info we read was cut off at that particular time - but when rescanned - all data came in). So as a user, if you want immediate results please restart biblepay and let it re-load the cpids - then exec rac should work - or you can simply wait ~4 hrs, and during the next block cycle (within 102 blocks) it will repopulate the leaderboard. (The sancs will automatically repopulate at the next mid-cycle).

** BIBLEPAY POOL ADMINISTRATORS BULLETIN **
All pools: Due to the RandomX development initiative, POBH will (most likely) have a shortened lifespan (IE < 6 months left before it retires). So please be aware of the following plan to transition to the RandomX algorithm: The current POBH pools have been forked to: https://github.com/biblepay/node-open-mining-portal-pobhhttps://github.com/biblepay/node-stratum-pool-pobhNo code changes have been made to POBH so there is no need to do anything. Please be aware however, not to git pull the latest until we are live in prod with randomx. As the current repos will be transitioned over to RandomX. If you need to start a new pool or repair your pool please change your github URLs to the above urls for pobh. The next steps: I will be creating more repos and a testnet endeavor for RandomX. My goal is to have testnet ready by the end of this weekend. All: NOTE: We need your help to test the BBP RandomX branch!

It looks like everyone missed the PODC reward today, because the assessment by the sancs over the last 105 blocks (before the emission) was that there were no cpids to pay. However the rest of the superblock was emitted (Cameroon one, Kairos, and Whale stakes).

I want to give an update on temporarily winding down Compassion and transitioning to POOM. And to re-iterate we do like compassion, they appear to be a great organization with Christian values. We are in the POOM era simply because Cameroon-One and Kairos agreed to integrate with us technically, and we don't have an unlimited budget to continue the Compassion side until some time in the future.
So in the wind-down we had approx $1,675 credit that compassion recommended we put toward the orphan insurance fund. I then recommended we put it toward new children (or to compassion for babies). Because of the "assumption" that we would sponsor 4 new children and then cancel them, they said no. So I tried manually starting 4 children with my credit card and asking if we can use the residual balance to pay for the 4 kids for the next year. After the kids started, They said No (and canceled the children). (And recommended us to use the balance for the insurance fund).
I said No, I want it to go to the KIDS only. So I asked for a credit back. They have issued a credit.
So now what I'm doing is working with Steve, president of SAI.ngo, to see if he can give us a wholesale deal on 20 orphans in Venezuela. I'm trying to direct the leftover money with the absolute maximum magnitude.

Hoping someone will find this helpful for setting up a wallet in Windows 10 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlwEkgyO-zU Please subscribe and like if it is helpful. I plan on doing another for setting up PoDC2.0 I'm not great at making videos but am gonna try getting members of my team collecting soon and it is easier to follow when you have a visual.

Or, if you want you can just replay the prior superblock to the PODC researchers. I'll cover the costs on this, let me know how much it is. Tomorrow I will add code to the server side to prevent this. I believe we can detect it when we are in prod mode with less than 50% of the CPIDs, we can keep hold of yesterdays file and keep trying until success occurs. Hopefully we will get the uptime back to 99% that way.

I believe I have a recent enough snapshot that may get us closer to actual reported RAC before the truncated wcg.rac Based on 1.06M RAC for WCG leaderboard and a RAC:BBP ratio of 0.45, the total owed comes out to 480,398.85 BBP You can send it to BKdkszSubBe9cNurd2LoBjPuaFhTL7utYw and I can distribute if you wish. Details here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1diISnTnGTO2x-MdnrdgLDholVazHO5e31FeXP-ZX0NA/edit?usp=sharingToday's leaderboard shows a ratio of 0.63 but is unreliable since capulo who normally has 190k points shows only 8k points today. So, 0.45 ratio is the more reliable figure. If anyone feels my analysis is wrong, please DM me and I'll take a deeper dive. I just need your CPK & CPID.
