[ANN][RHOC] Official RChain Cooperative - 40,000 TX/SEC SCALABLE BLOCKCHAIN

[Mcry89]

Official RChain Cooperative Bitcointalk Announcement Thread
(The previous [ANN]RChain thread has been locked and is obsolete)

The open-source RChain project is building a decentralized, economic, censorship-resistant, public compute infrastructure and blockchain. It will host and execute programs popularly referred to as “smart contracts”. It will be trustworthy, scalable, concurrent, with proof-of-stake consensus and content delivery.

Using smart contracts, a broad array of fully-scalable decentralized applications (dApps) can be built on the top of this platform. DApps may address areas such as identity, tokens, timestamping, financial services, monetized content delivery, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), exchanges, reputation, private social networks, marketplaces, and many more.

Summary of the RChain Coop's First Annual Meeting

Individuals from all over the globe came together on Tuesday, October 24th, 2017 for RChain Cooperative’s first annual membership meeting.

Here is a quick summary : https://medium.com/rchain-cooperative/annual-meeting-summary-3827a82a2e33

[Mcry89]

New Code Released for Vlad Zamfir's Ethereum 'Casper' Upgrade

The initial version of the Casper proof-of-stake protocol upgrade from Ethereum developer Vlad Zamfir has been released.

Published on Tuesday, the code – following its presentation at the Devcon3 event in Cancun earlier this month – aims to fundamentally rework how blocks are created and propagated on the ethereum network. It's actually one of two simultaneous bids to develop code for Casper, with the other arm being spearheaded by network creator Vitalik Buterin.

Zamfir's take on Casper comes several days after the publication of a white paper, titled "Casper the Friendly Ghost."

The paper focuses on "correct-by-construction consensus protocols," seeking to simplify how blockchains achieve consensus in a "partially synchronous network." In other words, it's trying to reduce the overall complexity of the blockchain.

This approach differs from Buterin’s own white papers on the upgrade. Buterin had previously released a three-part explanation of how his vision of Casper would operate.

While Zamfir's code release may represent on a small part of a bigger effort, its publication signals a new phase of development that will bring ethereum a step closer to overhauling the infrastructure that underlies the network.

As explained by CoinDesk, miners today discover and add new blocks through the proof-of-work process, in a way similar to how bitcoin functions (with some differences that are unique to ethereum, like the discovery of "uncle" blocks.)

This energy-intensive process is a competitive one, driving miners to purchase power-hungry graphics cards – a cycle that has led firms like AMD and Nivida to report significant revenues thanks to the renewed interest in cryptocurrency mining.

Yet Casper would, if and when fully realized, aim to shift away from this model entirely. Nodes could mine by essentially having funds deposited– the "stake" in proof-of-stake – and held over time, generating rewards as the node discovers each new block.

RChain pre-alpha Hello.Node v0.1 software released

https://www.reddit.com/r/RChain/comments/7lo003/rchain_prealpha_hellonode_v01_software_released/

From Nash E. Foster Cofounder & CEO, Pyrofex Corporation in the Telegram channel:

The Coop’s developer team is pleased to announce the initial milestone release of our RChain node software--Node.Hello (v0.1). This package marks the first of many pre-production release milestones along our flight to Mercury. This pre-alpha software release demonstrates the RChain network communications system and is available for interested parties to begin helping us test. Node.Hello will discover the RChain bootstrap node, detect other active RChain nodes, and form the RChain peer-to-peer network. The network layer is the lowest level component in the architecture that will eventually support RChain’s large-scale blockchain operations.

Detailed documentation on the release can be found in Github:

    https://github.com/rchain/rchain/tree/v0.1/comm

In addition to building from GitHub, users may opt to download a Docker image from Docker hub here:

    https://store.docker.com/community/images/rchain/rchain-comm

We invite all community members to test the code and provide developer feedback and ask questions:

  Questions & Comments via our Gitter channel - https://gitte[Suspicious link removed]/rchain/Releases
  Bugs can be filed on our Jira using this link - https://[Suspicious link removed]/DdP48u

Please keep an eye out for additional milestone components in coming weeks. On behalf of the developer team, I’d like to thank the entire community for your support. On a personal note, I’d like to wish you all a very merry Christmas, I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

Hi Mcry89, thanks for sharing the info. Is it RChain specific or is it meant to benefit people from the blockchain space outside the RChain community? I need to dig a bit deeper into RCHain I guess. 

This will be members only and meant for the following objectives:

The 2018 RChain Governance Forum will help active members of the Cooperative's board, committees, and community learn to work together in a sustainable and productive way. The intent of this event is to foster improved group dynamics that allow the members and the organization to achieve their long-term goals together.

There is a Talk on Rholang in Salt Lake Area if you're interested :

Anyone in the Salt Lake Area is welcome to come.

From Nash E. Foster Cofounder & CEO, Pyrofex Corporation in the Telegram channel:

The Coop’s developer team is pleased to announce the initial milestone release of our RChain node software--Node.Hello (v0.1). This package marks the first of many pre-production release milestones along our flight to Mercury. This pre-alpha software release demonstrates the RChain network communications system and is available for interested parties to begin helping us test. Node.Hello will discover the RChain bootstrap node, detect other active RChain nodes, and form the RChain peer-to-peer network. The network layer is the lowest level component in the architecture that will eventually support RChain’s large-scale blockchain operations.

Detailed documentation on the release can be found in Github:

https://github.com/rchain/rchain/tree/v0.1/comm
In addition to building from GitHub, users may opt to download a Docker image from Docker hub here:

Is it real with 40,000 transactions per second? Fastest blockchain?

Yes, we are formally verified! That means the math proves it can be done. We are now in the engineering stage and the brief roadmap can be found here : https://rchain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CORE/overview

Hello,

RChain has been added to TrackICO (link: https://www.trackico.io/ico/rchain).

Feel free to contact us via https://www.trackico.io/contact if you have any questions.

hi, thank you for this. your site is very helpful mate. but i would like to react on your assessment on RChain. i suggest that atleast you have a more detailed information about their ico. so that we will no longer visit the website because you already have the details we need.

Greg Meredith & Nash Foster
RChain – The Scalable, Concurrent and Performant Blockchain

EPISODE 221
FEB 8 2018
67 MIN
We’re joined by Greg Meredith and Nash Foster of the RChain Cooperative. A fundamentally kind of new blockchain platform, RChain is rooted in a formal model of concurrent and decentralized computation. Powered by the Rho Virtual Machine, and secured by Casper proof-of-stake, RCain is partitioned, or shareded by default, forming a network of coordinated and parallel blockchains. The project, which is formed as a coop, leverages correct-by-construction software development to produce a concurrent, compositional, and massively scalable blockchain.

Topics we discussed in this episode
How Rchain spun out of the Synereo project
The primary objectives RChain seeks to establish
The fundamental principles of RChain and RLang
The concepts of concurrency and parallelism in simple terms
How building concurrent systems implies scallability
The unique features of Casper consensus in the context of RChain
The importance of namespaces in RChain
Why this project was started as a cooperative
The current status of the project and roapmap

[xianwei82]

Rchain can be said to be the first truly parallel, extensible block chain, designed as a block chain platform that provides enterprise level services.

[yeyz20171031]

In 2018, which block chain technology can achieve high scalability successfully, it will win the favor of the market, of course, the premise is to ensure that it still has the characteristics of "de centralization". I think RHOC might be the best of all

[yeyicheng2015]

The Rchain team's research strength is very strong, the team has 8 PhD, and from 15 years began the theoretical research, plus 4 former Google technology backbone, we can say that the team strength is quite convincing. It is particularly worth mentioning that the leader, Greg, and the ether workshop researcher Vlad.

[shixd8899]

ETH's extensibility solution is fragmentation, and RChain has a great advantage in throughput and programmability

[yyz13857180757]

RHOC has a great advantage in throughput and programmability. For detailed technical details, a small partner who wants to make a deep ploughing can look at the last link, and the official document provides detailed technical documentation.

[wanggq8877]

I have to say, Rchain is not well known to everyone now, of course, when everyone knows, it may not be the price.I have to say, Rchain is not well known to everyone now, of course, when everyone knows, it may not be the price.

[zhouyc]

The Rchain team is very low - key, with little publicity, let alone a marketing company. Of course, it's also related to their cautious attitude. A responsible project should do good first, rather than blow the cow first.

[jackmuu]

RChain got featured as #4 altcoin to purchase before we enter the bull market!

[dasyzon2666]

Wow, what an amazing project! The development team looks promising.
 looks pretty interesting for a start project, so let's know what's interesting on this thread 

[zneww]

I don't understand why is RChain considered as a plattform? I thought it is considered as a protocol?

[Vinxent]

There  has been no update for month. Is a community take over coming? Hope so!

[Ozinzin]

As far as I know, each blockchain has its own speed limitations… Will we face large delays when working on several blockchains at the moment?

[adam24409]

I like the concept and I think this project will have a big future. This is a great project and worth to invest

[player01]

I would like to know how many tx/s is Rchain aiming at main-net launch?

And what are the future plans for scalability?

[micle222]

I've always appreciated the well roundedness of Rchain. I find so many projects  focus too much energy and hype on excessively high tps numbers and in doing so neglect other areas. I have high hopes for Rchain.

[yyz13857180757]

The technology of RHOC coin project is very good. This project is worth investing for a long time. It should have a good profit.

[Haynes]

May dapps will have dependencies of many other dapps, as with our normal apps that interact with social media, 2fa, saas, etc, i dont even know. And how does this impact validation? Could it happen that we get big dapps that need 100s of shards to validate an interaction?

[xianwei82]

The price of RHOC coins is not high enough to buy in batches. There will be a good rally in the future. Investors have to learn to wait and ambush

[yyz13857180757]

RHOC technology is still worth looking forward to. Excellent coin projects also take time to precipitate. So investors need to be patient and wait for the harvest season to come.

[SeemanLamem]

RChain project is building a decentralized, economic, censorship-resistant, public compute infrastructure and blockchain. It will host and execute programs popularly referred to as  smart contracts. It will be trustworthy, scalable, concurrent, with proof of stake consensus and content delivery. Using smart contracts, a broad array of fully scalable decentralized applications can be built on the top of this platform. DApps may address areas such as identity, tokens, timestamping, financial services, monetized content delivery, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations, exchanges, reputation, private social networks, marketplaces, and many more.

[SheldonLeeCooper]

All RHOC tokens will convert at a 1:1 ratio to REV tokens at the launch of the RChain mainnet (Mercury) in Q4 of 2018.

RNode v0.4.1 included cryptographic functions. This is a signal to buy  RHOC now? Deside and  voting  for this signal here - https://yeenot.today/catalog/news/348

[erwan]

Like other project in the space one of most important things will be developers joining and building the ecosystem. Is there any way to follow developer interest in Rchain?

[doge_shit666]

The RChain project uses a smart contract to fully extend the decentralized applications built on the foundation of the project. In addition, "every line of code on RChain follows a formal model, which is properly checked for concurrency and allows for automatic verification of highly scalable contracts." Modern technology produces good performance as a measure of the success of the project. RChain will be the choice of many investors.

[EasyMoney01]

I love the RChain project, the only thing that bothers me investment-wise is the number of unreleased tokens. I'm afraid that the increasing supply will keep the price down over the next couple years. But once they're all in circulation, and the network is up and running, the sky is the limit. I keep stocking up on RChain with the intention to hold until 2020.

[wangxiaoyan888666]

RHOC is a good encryption money project, but the market overall market is not good, the price of coins is also in a downward trend, and the future development of RHOC is worth looking at.

[SheldonLeeCooper]

RChain update

Medha begins the hangout with updates from the dev team. Great progress has been made in the integration tests, resolving bugs, and in the node testing sessions. About five companies are in the pipeline for the Vancouver Deal Day, with commitments from a local coding academy to build a Rholang/RChain curriculum. The Reflective team has signed deals with three companies: Translo, Inkrypt, and Hellofriend. Other great developments are the communication protocol being rolled out by the H3Uni group and the release of the second logo concept from Girvin.

The team and advisor board is strong and dedicated. We need more projects of this kind introducing cryptoworld to new comers and making crypto more comfortable for everybody. I'm waiting for the market to rise and start mainnet up for the full implementation of the project

[romul1972]

I like this project, it's a good idea. But unfortunately it failed.

[vuglusk]

There were good base for the project. It is a pity it doesn't meet my expectations.

[Ojimadu]

I like this project, it's a good idea. But unfortunately it failed.

Our project is still very active and going strong. We are launching our testnet few weeks from now, during our upcoming RCon3 conference in Berlin, Germany from 3rd-6th September 2018 during which we would aim to demonstrate the high throughput of our platform we aim to achieve ~40,000 comm events, demonstrate the RHOC to REV token swap, demonstrate DApps including a demo of an awesome on-chain audio DApp. Our main-net -Mercury- would be launched during RCon4 in December 2018.

You can have a look at our code base it is very active showing that out developers are fully at work. Our code base is among the top ten cryptocurrency commits.

Hi guys. Previously, I did not follow this project.
But recently, I saw the news that the Priorbank in Belarus conducted an operation on a block chain using R-chain. https://tech.onliner.by/2018/11/08/blockchain-13
And for this I want to ask if this project is related to this event.
Thanks

There is a common 6.24/10 score from 12 experts

[Nikolas.Glushe]

Dear Rchain community. We are pleased to inform you about our project https://rctalk.top which logs all important telegram chats related to Rchain. We believe that Rchain Chats will be a valuable addition to the Rchain ecosystem. During the work of the site, we have already received a large number of positive feedback from community members. The project is under active development. The project has its own team of programmers, ready at any time to solve new technical problems and make new improvements.

What is implemented at the moment:
You can read your favorite sites in a convenient form for you through https://rctalk.top
The site is optimized for work and on mobile devices. There is a search by keyword and date. It is possible to read the chat you want in your native language using Google Translate. The translation is not perfect, but it will allow you to receive the latest news as quickly as possible from the first sources. For example, you can use our site to read Chinese or Russian versions of Rchain telegram chats.

In the near future, we plan to add the ability to share a specific telegram post in social networks. On the one hand, this will allow you to share interesting content with your friends and subscribers, and on the other hand, it will positively influence the development of Rchain’s popularity in general.

There is a lot of work ahead, we have planned a huge number of interesting and useful improvements. If you have any suggestions for improving our site, please write - we will try to take everything into account and use it in the further development of the site.

If you think that some important chat related to Rchain is missing on our website, please write and we will add it.
