You can check if you having a winning address by doing ./raptoreum-cli validateaddress or in the QT wallet Help > Debug > Console and type validateaddress <address> without the <>. Alternatively I have made a script that you can run to check if you own any of the winning addresses here: https://github.com/Raptor3um/lucky_block_verify

To verify that you own a winning address you must verify ownership by "signing". For QT click File > Sign Message > Enter your winning address > a message > and click "Sign Message". Send the address, message, and signature to Charlie, as well as your RVN (Ravencoin) address. For more detailed information on this see here: https://github.com/Raptor3um/lucky_block_verify

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The new contest started at height 59458 and ending block 69538.

Good luck!

Testnet 3 is almost here! This will bring:

1.) Servicenodes
2.) 51% / double spend protection
3.) Instant + Private send

The lottery is now up to 80,000 RTM. As an example if Raptoreum were to hit 150 sats on mainnet that would be 0.13 BTC 

[Bigpiggy01]

A lot of people have been waiting for this 

Looks like we should have a windows build this weekend.

Still not 100% confirmed but we're past the initial compile issue and early build testing, so WIN on testnet barring disasters 

[Raptoreum]

The winners of the Raptoreum logo bounty are the guys from https://thecoreadmin.com/. This is a top notch group that do amazing work, attention to detail is to put bluntly kick ass, and they have been a pleasure to work with. I have 0 issue at all to recommend them should you need one of their services.

All different versions of the new logo can be seen here: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1dEXuUrZi5zsqZuhapMu_kvXXIxKxMj3y

How does the bot know your address?

The bot provides you with an address when you join. The address is fully HD compliant and keys not kept on server. Type in "rtm.walletdetail" in DM with the bot and it will provide you with keys, seed etc.

The seed is BIP 32 compliant and works on all the supported coins, those being RTM, RVN, XRD and XGCS at the moment.

@cmallory183  has created an address checker for Windows, big thank you for that! You can get it here: https://gitlab.com/cmallory/raptoreum-address-verifier

Updated Linux check script available in our Discord in the #contests channel

Lottery: The RTM lottery is now up to 120k! Starting with the next draw the amount of numbers the bot draws will double. So next draw will be 2x, the following draw 4x, and so on up until mainnet. If there is no winner by mainnet, on the final draw the bot will draw until there is a winner.

Provided everything goes as it should  

We should be rolling out the next iteration of testnet early next week.

Is that yet another ICO, Haha? Another blockchain again? One revolution, yet another? And that's enough, girls boys, bitcoin's enough:)

Ok, as everyone has been aware, for the last two weeks or so, things have been slightly off track. What everyone has not been aware of has been the cause of these issues.
While combining the code we are forking with our own additional code, several serious security issues have come to light. We are currently working with code originators on getting fixes deployed for these issues and then integrating to a whole once complete. This is an ongoing process that unfortunately will take a significant amount of time. Additionally, due to the nature of these bugs, we are not able to go into details with them till fixes have rolled out all round similarly to the last Bitcoin bug fix.

What does this mean for the project and what will be happening in the meantime?

1)   We now have a more realistic shot at having a GPUminer implemented for launch. Ocminer from Suprnova has kindly agreed to work on integrating GhostRider into Suprminer.

2)   We will be launching a pooled CPU testnet within the next week or two so we can kick the wallet mining up a notch.

3)   Overall, to ensure proper testing of the issues we discovered post integration, we will be looking at pushing mainnet to November 1st.

4)   One currently promised feature, “futures” will have to be introduced in a fork 4-6 months post launch as our current implementation is heavily affected by the fixes we have to roll out.

5)   We will post service node integration into the testnet be running a break our chain contest.

6)   The project is going to come out significantly stronger at launch.

On a more positive note, GhostRider whitepaper, Raptoreum Litepaper and Graphics are now available in Italian Thanks to Luca_san.
Thanks for sticking with us and a special thanks to the testnet miners who are providing excellent data on the algorithm and its workings.

[Raptoreum]

We done gone and done it! We have integrated the RTM wallet with our own version of the Duckhunt game / bot on Discord, as well as out local bot Stays Mom!

What does that mean?

It means now when you kill ducks in #duckhunt you are awarded RTM coins (testnet) as well we will be adding rare and not so rare asset drops to the ducks.


We are happy to announce that our papers and Infographic are now available in Italian. You can get them here >> https://raptoreum.com/rtm_files/ Thank you to @Luca_san for the translations, well done!
