OK, so the original Noirbits was pretty cool and had a great run, some guy took it over and abandoned it. What i have learned from that is rushed updates do not work. Also community management for Alts is a no flyer. I'll be taking it back now thanks.

So... firstly i want to apologize for the lateness, i am juggling a lot at the moment. This update serves to help secure the chain and gain interest again.

Most have complained about sync issue, i too had them , even when i was trying to do the update. I have been trying to fix this with help from other devs, don't worry, it's done.

Next is the many reports of lost coins, since the last pool from the takeover is offline, it is going to be difficult to tell who lost what coins. Please post full reports as i intend to pay those coins back.

There will be a running lotto for 3 months

1st prize ---5000
2nd prize --- 2000
3rd prize --- 500

For miners or pools that find certain key blocks i will also be rewarding them with 200 NRB per block.

As it stands, this coin has so much potential. Those who keep up know i am in Africa at the moment and have already attained a Banking License as well as Foreign Exchange permit. Using my home as the offices all that is left is for my hardware to arraive and acquire the required "float fund" to begin operations.

I want to thank the new guys who have brought in some pools, your efforts are appreciated and i will be paying out bounties after the update is successful.

At his moment the update requires a few more tweaks. You can monitor it's progress on my git. Nameshar is the name. (I am not Indian) Lol

If i have left out anything, please let me know.

nrb.cryptopools.com still has over 700 bonus blocks left so get them while they last.  That's 5 NRB for every block you find.

Happy mining!!

There will also be a one off prize to all miners that mine faithfully on all pools for one week.


Have you heard of the DAC concept being applied to Protoshares and Bitshares? How would you like NRB being used as shares in Noirbank? Instead of shareholders buying shares From a central point, you can earn your own. This puts a lot of control in the hands of the community. I had intended this to be an all out community managed project but it didn't work. But if the community has heavy influence like that then maybe it's a better model.

Here is my Plan

Step one---Get more interest and hopefully raise awareness therefore increase community size (1 month)

Step two --- Begin offering small services and goods, including a small exchange site that trades for USD directly. ( 3-5 months)

Step three --- Launch the bank with ammased NRB and USD.

From there it gets interesting. Since my move to Africa, i have an abundance of space, so i will be buying more servers with what i make off this venture. Once i have reasonable servers, i will begin hosting... all the profit goes to shareholders ie (NRB Bank account holders with a balance in the account).

As the business grows(hopefully) i will introduce new products and services that will see shareholders Quarterlies rise. All this is long term, but it is the future i envision.

As for Noirtokens and the Physical NRB, those will wait until i have met at least two of the above objectives.

I'm confused by these statements. If NRB act as shares in Noirbank, what's the purpose of Noirtokens?

i have benched it, it's a project that takes time and does not have a targeted use yet. One of my ideas can be applied to it, it is called "Derived value alternate currency" simply put there are some good alts that failed to reach exchange, so, we can grow our community my including them. We do this by implementing a hard limit set trade-off

Coin A has 20000000 cap but only 10000000 have been mined at Limit date
Coin B has 1000000000 cap and 60000000 have been mined at Limit date
Coin C has limit 100000 cap and 99000 have been mined at Limit date
Coin D has limit 10000000000 cap and 6500000 have been mined at Limit date

So, Noirtokens would have say a 100000000 cap, of that 15% is mined in the first block, this is then entered into an automatic escrow service that has the Limit date set for each coin, meaning coins minted before the limit date can be traded directly for NRT. By having a maximum of 24 coins we stand to bring in members of those small 24 communities into ours thereby making ours much larger.

Using the number 24 we can say 1st class coins are only 4, second class coins are 8 and 3rd class are 12.

Of the 15% money supply allocated to these coins 1st class gets 7% second gets 5.5% and 3rd 2.5%.

Now it becomes maths, 4 coins take 7%, between them they share it equally===1.75%, so if there exist as i pointed out in A, B , C and D then all the coins mined on each chain up to Limit date are equivalent to only 1.75% of the total money supply for NRT.

The vetting process has been discussed in length by me and digitalindustry, we found that if we list coins we think have potential (with suggestions from ya'llz) we can then let the community vote.

The criteria is simple
  • No Premine or very small one
  • Chain should still be active, we dnt want to have to restart it ourselves
  • The dev should give the go ahead, or if he does not respond at all, we go ahead
  • Coin should be at least two months old and show actual signs of dying out
  • Chain should not need repair by me or anyone working with the NRB/NRT core team
  • It has to work, as in there are coins that just did not work, i loved one coin, but it would be hard to implement

The groups for coins are chosen based on votes, so each one counts. if you have some old coin lying around and wish to get back your investment, this would be a good option. The overall goal is a larger community, with massive hash strength.

We can then place a cross trade from NRT to NRB, see, we can say that 1 NRB = 20 NRT, that is an effective increase on the money supply on NRB without altering it's code and devaluing it. Eventually, the escrow is closed, after the window period is over. All deposited coins are destroyed, leaving only holders of NRT and NRB...our gold and silver. This means that the only way of gaining shares at this point is buying or mining.

(EXPERIMENTAL) Rather than having useless hashes on the Blockchain Later on Bank Transactions and some securities measures will utilise that data as random security keys and generate highly encrypted BOSS keys that will allow users to manipulate their accounts with no fears. 2FA is a great idea but it requires too much effort, instead i am thinking of a once off per device method as i will encourage this to be mostly mobile operated. 



Most of this stuff is new to me so i'm trying to drink my coffee, put on some pants and drive (so to say). One thing is clear though, i can't do it alone. If anyone has any ideas, these are the dying moments so speak up before I publish the NRB update.

Just a thought, NRT would be CPU only and very memory heavy, maybe bytemaster and Freetrade will come up with a viable implementation.

[Long-ass explanation]

Damn, that's quite the plan for Noirtoken, and Noirbit in general. I can't wait to see all this unfold!   Grin

Less than 300 bonus blocks left at nrb.cryptopools.com.  Great job at getting NRB back on track.
