[ANN][PoW][MN] Octa.Space - distributed computing and VPN

[octa.space]

Development updates (testnet):

 * block explorer was deployed: https://explorer.octa.space
 * RPC & WS interfaces: https://rpc.octa.space & wss://rpc.octa.space/ws

[octa.space]

Development updates:

 * Added shadowsocks + v2ray VPN, now it's possible to choose the vpn type between wireguard and shadowsocks
 * Added tensorflow 2.9.0 to the list of available images

[octa.space]

Development updates (testnet):

 * Switched to native Octa.Space network and coin
 * UI improvements
 * Improved deposits functionality

[octa.space]

Development updates:

 * Decreased system requirements for node installation:

    No need to have dedicated volume for docker data, but in this case your node may acts only as VPN gateway

 * Starting from current version of node software it will be updating automatically without user interaction

Please update node software to current version:

Code:

systemctl stop orc
curl https://install.octa.space|bash

[octa.space]

just a reminder - new accounts will be funded by Ø 5 for testing project's services, welcome: https://cube.octa.space

Hello there,

Development updates:

 * Added support of Ubuntu 18.04
 * Added support of HiveOS, now your rig can be VPN access point and earn not only by mining
 * Added bot to discord server which provide useful information about network and track changes on it

[octa.space]

Hello everyone,

We added the new section 'Blog' on our website where we will publish real usage examples and other articles related to the Octa.Space
The first article is Neural Style Transfer: how to create artwork using "A Neural Algorithm of Artistic Style" and project's GPU rental service

Enjoy reading

Good news, we reach the agreement with cool and good known mining pool to support Octa.Space when mainnet launch.
More details will be provided with news about mainnet start.

[octa.space]

Mainnet launch is scheduled on 19 of June at 14:00 UTC
Coin specification is described here https://octa.space/docs/cryptocurrency/

Node binary you may download from https://github.com/octaspace-project/go-octa/releases/tag/v1.0.1

[octa.space]

Development updates:

 * Added support of Ubuntu 22.04 for x86_64 and aarch64
 * Added support of aarch64 system architecture, now it's possible to install node software on the Raspberry PI
 * Allowed to specify custom ports range for VPN service, it's useful if default ports conflict with other services already installed on the computer.

[octa.space]

Goals:

 * Create a system which provide real-world usage services by utilizing remote nodes hardware

    These services are:

        * Rent or rent out hardware for heavy computation tasks like machine learning, video rendering or brute force wifi password of your neighbors
        * VPN access using nodes located around the world with the following benefits:

            * It's easy to setup using non modified and opensource software available for many platforms
            * You able to choose the VPN technology you wanna use, at this moment the wireguard and shadowsocks with v2ray plugin is implemented.
              In the future we planned to add more technologies especially focusing to bypass China's golden shield (Great Firewall of China)
            * No limits for amount of devices connected simultaneously

        * Any other services which will be useful for people, we are open for ideas from community

 * Use crypto as a payment method for services above and utilize blockchain technology for services needs

So, octa.space project is about real usage services, cryptocurrency and blockchain it's a one of used technology/instrumentations to achive the goals.
In other words octa.space is not just another crypto coin to mine, sell, repeat or forget - firstly we focused on services.

Welcome everyone to our tg and discord channels

Project updates:

 * Development fund reward was reduced from 3 to 1.5 OCTA, miner reward is 6.5
 * Improved support of aarch64 system architecture, GPU rental service is available now on this arch
 * Documentation was updated

Mainnet is up and running. Now we are waiting for the pool operators for confirmations about listing.
At this moment only solo mining is possible.

Excellent project!
We just reached 10,000 blocks and new miners are joining the network! When the pools arrive the difficulty will fly so it is better to take advantage now.

[octa.space]

PoW network statistics interface is up and running: https://stats.octa.space

[octa.space]

We are happy to announce what today at 09:00 UTC mining of OCTA will be available on https://coolpool.top mining pool.
Thanks CoolPool administration for support us.

[octa.space]

Development updates:

 * Added support of OpenVPN for VPN service, now it's possible to use wireguard, shadowsocks or openvpn to organize your VPN connection

[octa.space]

Mining of OCTA is available on https://comining.io/ mining pool. Welcome.

[octa.space]

New pool is available https://solo-octa.ua-mining.com Welcome.

This project is quite obscure, does not have WhitePaper (at least I couldn't find it and the links provided today no longer work), there is no roadmap. The person does not know if he is mining a coin or giving his rent machine, which is also clear about payments on the official website.

Where's Windows Wallet? Linux? Mac?

He says he has implemented a currency for those who mine, but do not provide even information about the maximum, current supply. Do not tell how many recompensive currencies per block.

Even the momendo seems to me a scam this project.
