[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[thevictimofuktyranny]

I remember feb too, might of been the ethereum forum i saw that, cant remember.

I thought, it was going to be towards the second half of Feb 2017, but another guy has written it is the beginning of Feb 2017.

So, I guess, we are discussing about a 3 week variation in the start of the POS!

You cannot say exact date because it depends on DAG size... and.. dev team decision.. and.. hardfork vote

When the next scheduled fork occurs, developers may improve Ethereum block find times again.

This would increase daily mining payouts and simultaneously bring the POW stage too a finish earlier.

Alternatively, at the next scheduled fork, developers may decrease Ethereum block find times.

This would decrease daily mining payouts and simultaneously delay the end of POW stage.

But, it is best to leave this kind of fine tuning too the developers

If they decrease the block time from 14 s to 10 s, that means the miners will get 50% coins in the same time.

I am surprised that there are not more people talking about this syncing problem. Are there people not having a problem syncing. I have been at it 2 days now and the wallet is still not caught up.

My wallet to not want to sync,even win crash.

Mine does sync but it is much slower now

I'm not sure about your Maths, but it would be like an extra 28.5% a day.

However, the POW would finished earlier - in around 4 months time.

The developers would make that kind of call.

Here is a youbtube tutorial on how to use Parity from Ken Kappler:

Here is where you get Parity from:

https://ethcore.io/parity.html

It is very easy, just like running an extra program for the backend stuff to be switched too Parity on 0.8.3

This is fixed version of last torrent. Just make an image and lucky mining !!!

150 – Devcon 2 And The State Of Ethereum

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZEgDubXtpU


Last week the biggest blockchain-focused developer conference took place in Shanghai, China: Ethereum's DevCon 2. Epicenter show host Meher Roy was at the conference and brought back his impressions and insights for a comprehensive discussion of the current state of Ethereum projects and the Ethereum community.

Topics covered included:
- What Ethereum's developer conference DevCon 2 was like
- The big change in going from concepts to alpha version over the last year
- The continued lack of sustainable business models in Ethereum
- The lack of interest by Venture Capitalists and the big tech companies in Ethereum and blockchain technology
- The current state and incentive problems of crowdsales
- Three areas of focus in Ethereum: Scalability, Privacy and Governance
- The search for the next protocol

Thank you for the thank you

Yes, there is an evil scammer posting a fake update for ethereum. One of the fake updates claims to be for geth. He even has a fake website that looks like it is associated with ethereum. he is located in San Paulo Brazil. it is a back door program. beware! He is also posting links within chat sessions on the ethereum website. Do not download anything but from the main ethereum website. Beware!

Sounds nasty - probably a person with an ugly heart and ugly mind!

Yes this person is a dark person. I woke at 4 in the morning to see him in the process of stealing my coins. I was in shock and in shock that there are people in the world so devious. I shut down the PC took it off line and wiped it clean and reinstalled windows. I am still reeling from the creepy feeling of the entire experience. I have now a much more secure process for how I store coins and wallets. I have learned my lesson. Just everyone beware this guy is trolling the websites and posting links every time there is a break in ethereum and is probably doing the same for bitcoin as well. It is sad that there is such evil in the world. These people do not realize that they will never get away with what they do. When they get to the other side they are forced to pay back everyone that they stole from and everyone they cheated. I learned that truth from a person who had a near death experience. How this payback is accomplished I don't know but it is just and it is inescapable. Shame on the man from San Paulo.

it take very long time to synchronise. There is a new version of the geth now in the website. But that is prerelease.

https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/releases

What else should we rewrite? (1.4.14)
@karalabe karalabe released this 6 hours ago

This is a Geth pre-release to counter the network DoS attacks from yesterday and those detected today. It is a prerelease (to help people get back on track fast) with further updates coming soon. As always, please keep an eye on your nodes while using as it features a new bleeding edge caching mechanism.

Note, initial attack blocks may process slower as cold data is loaded from the disk, but the longer Geth runs the less impact such transactions should have.

Being a pre-release, we won't land this code just yet in the master branch, also inherently meaning we won't be providing stable binaries from the usual channels (brew, ppa, chocolatey), however cross builds are available for testing below. Mist builds containing the pre-release will also be available.

Strong words, I agree these kind of criminals (thieves) are completely morally bankrupt; they have lost their integrity and any sense of personal honour (To trust in one's own abilities, judgement and talent to provide success in the present and future).

Devcon was awesome  

ETHereum is going places...fast, so much progress it really is amazing.
Buy or hodl ETH as many big announcements will be made public over next few weeks
