🚀[ANN] POLIS | Proof-of-Stake and Masternodes | Decentralized |

[kolinko]

As some of you are aware, yesterday the Cryptopia markets were paused.

POLIS talk to the Cryptopia wallet support team and they told us they are investigating a possible 51% attack on Polis Blockchain.

The last week we have experienced some unusual activity on high purchases and dumps on Cryptopia.
Also we have seen some unusual activity over the network hash difficulty calculation and time between blocks.
Yesterday we run some analytic tests over the Polis Blockchain and we don't find any proof of a 51% attack or a double spend. We informed the Cryptopia team and we are working together to make this analysis as fast as we can to open the markets again.

POLIS have prepare an automatic mechanisms for any attempt of a 51% attack that will work the next time unusual activity is detected.

As for the Core Team, as we stated before we are preparing a switch to a Pow/Pos hybrid system to prevent this kind of attacks.

the very name of the topic already speaks for itself and that is all said. I think if the team succeeds, it will be very popular in the market. It'simportant for the community.

This project has a promising future, because it will solve the problem of intermediaries in the financial market. This is very timely, especially in a blockchain space where there are no hard and fast rules. Follow the news.

For those reading this is what's on the site:

Airdrop governance :
Polis is pleased to offer “a pay to vote reward system” designed to support the governance system.

This proposal will increase awareness for the governance system while rewarding the masternode owners with an airdrop and paving the way for other proposals and general acceptance.

In phase 1 we propose the following :
Monthly funds : 10.000 POLIS
Reward / vote : 4 POLIS
Max votes : 2500 VOTES
The funds and reward amount will be reviewed after 3 months and adjusted to the achieved numbers.
Should there be any unused funds it will be used for (to be determined by the team and community)

Listing fee for another exchange
Marketing
Charity
Burn coins
FAQ.

When will I get paid :
A: After the airdrop governance proposal gets accepted and the funds are released
How many times can I vote :
A: You can cast 1 vote per masternode/proposal.
Example : 5 masternodes, 5 proposals = 25 votes. This equals to 100 POLIS
What will happen when the max number of votes are reached (2500)
A: The funds will be empty, so no more airdrop for the current month.
Do my old votes count ?
A: Only votes made starting at 03/07 GMT+1 (22:00) will count
     What proposals can i vote on ?
A: You can vote on any proposal that is still active, to view them go to :
https://www.polis-ninja.org/governance.html 65
Sort the proposals on “last seen”, the ones that say “Just now” are still active.
6) Do I have to vote yes ?
A: Any vote counts, so voting “NO” will also count

For further information we advise you to regulary check the #airdrop-governance channel.
This proposal has been discussed with the core team and will be reviewed quarterly.

Hello Polis Community.

We have released PolisCore v1.4.2 a NON-MANDATORY update. If you are on v1.4.1 is perfect.
This version will need to be used for users that want to stake when POS is switched. You can use it for your local wallet and keep your masternode on v1.4.1
https://github.com/polispay/polis/releases/tag/v1.4.2

Airdrop Governance is on the way!

Here are the transactions:

There weren't many proposals this month,  so we will call a vote in to what to do with the remaining funds.

Thanks for contributing, polis is truly made by the community!

All my Polis Masternodes show : NEW START REQUIRED.  When trying to start the masternode by using Start alias option, it now gives error:

Alias:MN1
Failed to start masternode,
Error: Masternode limit reached, masternodes enabled: 2974, cannot enable more masternodes, Current limit is 2000.



Dont tell me that now new limit has been set for masternodes i.e. 2000!  What will people do who intended to buy coins for masternode and now in loss due to fall in price?  Developer needs to do a quick fix to this!

There is not any kind of limit, first off you should get familiar with discord, the help you will get on this forum is extremely limited, you need to be able to get live help on discord.

Find the invite link on the first page of the thread

My guess would be that you have not updated to the most latest release of Polis, check to make sure you are on v1.4.1, note that a fork will happen at block 188328 so you want to get all your masternodes updated before then or you will be on wrong chain.

Hello Polis Community,

As some of you may know already, the polis blockchain is stuck on block 188328. We have looked into this problem, and found out a bug that made the difficulty go higher than it should be, the problem was  that the last block was mined by a non updated wallet. And the difficulty readjustment didn't trigger.

We recommend everyone to downgrade your wallets to 1.3.1, and start mining on PoW. We will look further on this issues, and will delay the fork day.

Here are the link for the old wallets:

<https://github.com/polispay/polis/releases/tag/v1.3.1>

Also the channel <#493905369144492034>  was just created so you can read all the questions regarding this downgrade . The dev team will also be helping if you run into problems with the downgrade.

Why is Polis switching to Proof-of-Stake and why was it rushed?
A double spend attack was recorded in the network, in September 4th, stealing roughly 90000 POLIS from cryptopia.

What went wrong with the Proof-Of-Stake fork?
The last block was mined by a non updated wallet. And the difficulty readjustment just didn't trigger. This means that finding a block with 1.4.x could take months.

What are we going to do about it?
The solution to this is to downgrade your wallets to 1.3.1, and start mining on PoW. We will look further on this issues, and will delay the fork day.

CryptoBridge is downgrading their wallets, the market should be open soon!  The market should be open between today and tomorrow.

[polispay]

Hello Polis Community,

We are working on a quick patch to the CVE-2018-17144 exploit required by CryptoBridge. The new patched wallet should be up between today and tomorrow, and it will not be a mandatory update, but highly recommended. Once we have this wallet, deposits and withdrawals in CryptoBridge will be back to normal.

In the meantime, you can buy polis from https://www.southxchange.com/
