[XC][XCurrency] Decentralised Trustless Privacy Platform / Encrypted XChat / Pos

[almond]

Spot on. :-)

The only modification I'd make to your comment is that I think it makes sense for, say, nodes routing internet traffic to earn based on their quality of service, rather than on their wallet balance. This will ensure a high performance network that serves content effectively.

Large balances already earn interest through POS; we'd want to incentivise good network performance.

As I understand things,  large balances stake at exactly the same rate as small balances, so to provide an additional incentive to hold a larger balance, the reward will need to increase dynamically with the size of the balance.  It's a good tactic.

rewarding nodes for quality of service is a great idea,  I'm curious how you would measure the node's performance and quantify it ?

Arlyn, big complement from me. Took till today to realize how thin the balance is between a positive community reaction and a complete disaster is.

Still feel anger about silverkinguk words, will sleep the rest off.
hope from now own you take the lead in ALL external communication. Had my mouse pointer hovering a full sell order to many times today.

Btw, in base this collaboration sounds great but I will stay offline fron now on for as long as I can control myself

Dan, you should add voicechat to XChat, that would be a good feature.

Its on the list.  Check out the first post in the thread.

Probably with a speed transfert indicator?

First node to serve content gets the payment.

Thank you Kimmy. Much appreciated.

What's happened is a regretful turn of events but I'm confident that the underlying development will considerably improve XC's fundamentals.

I have said what needed to be said.You trolls can go play now.

Stop attacking respected XC supporters who merely voice their opinion. Some of us are here since May, and we have the right to give our opinion on decisions made by either the dev team or the foundation. If our opinion is different than yours that doesn't mean that we are trolls or fudders. Ignoring criticism by devaluating the source is a sign of immaturity.

I have kept silent until now, but I have had enough of this. I appreciate your efforts for XC, but the way you present yourself the last couple of pages is unworthy of an XC foundation member.

[silverkinguk]

My trolls statement doesn't apply to all members but to the trolls.
Please read that statement carefully as well as my previous statement to the XC community.
Ethical actions work both ways,so some in the XC community should not act like those Dark Fudders we had previously.p
Please do not forget my actions were a response to an attack on Yanji and in no way were they intended as an attack on any well respected member,but there were members posting in defense of some trolls which also was not acceptable.

Your definition of trolls includes a couple of respected XC members that where here since the beginning. These are people who where either unhappy about the collaboration and/or the way it was announced. I am one of them, but I chose to withdraw my statements because I felt everything had been said already. Does voicing your opinion make you a troll? even if that opinion is different from yours?

Couldn't have said it better.

[hoertest]

guys , i don't like how he presents himself either but stop with this i have some thinking to do talk. think what? about canning your investment in a fantastic project because one of 13 foundation members comes of as kind of an ass a little.

the sensitive reaction of some in here is just as pathetic to me as silverkinguks behaviour. and no, i have no thinking to do now.... Last time i checked XC was still the best project in crypto even with a foundation member i wouldn't want to hang out with.

[dadon]

Sorry if i jumped the gun sort of, just didn't like the attack on men because most us men are good people with wives and respect women just like most women are good and respect men, the collaboration looks exciting looking forward too more details.

Nothing I have said alters my belief in XC. I hold and will do so no matter what, however that doesn't change the fact that I will speak my mind should something happen that I disagree with.

........but there were members posting in defense of some trolls which also was not acceptable.

Please understand this: I and many others never cared about qibuck. I did't even know of it existence.
There you came out of the blue calling out members of this community that earned my respect. That's OK,  we got this all the time and can deal with it but you are part of the core team. That's a different story.

btw: not sure I posted during that time. But i can tell you this one fact upfront: I will not always agree with you so you might as well put me on your shit/fud/Troll list.

all the respect the XC team earned over the last months is personal. Having your name on that PDF do not automatically gets you the same as I am happy to give to those that have proven time after time they earn it.

I do agree, I just meant was this type of behavior cannot happen in the future from members of the team/foundation or nobody will take XC seriously.  Could you imagine the fallout if a member of a Fortune 500 company's board of trustees publicly trashed respected investors?

Decentralized cloud storage

+1 for decentralized cloud storage. Recently had drinks with Shawn from Storj.io and like his approach, however I think Dan is better able to implement xcloud, and on top of the xcurrency platform nonetheless . Talked to Shawn about xcurrency as well but he is a bitcoin purist, which is odd as storj is creating its own altcoin to work within the platform. What I really like is that XC is building apps onto a currency, as opposed to creating a currency to work within the app. Money will soon be able to do the unthinkable, if it isn't already.

I'll keep working on him  and his crew, some of them could be large investors...Storj and XC, now that's a collaboration I could get excited about.

[Artoodeetoo]

Guys, the guy does come across badly and I agree with much of the above, but the senior guys involved here are not stupid, lets let them have a quiet word behind the scenes and in more diplomatic language say stfu.

Loads of good news on the horizon which at the moment we are all eagerly awaiting, lets focus on this and stop discussing this guys less than respectful posts.
