BTCD is no more

[threecats]

While investors just buy in and have normal life, go to pubs to grab some drinks and chicks, I spent the whole weekend (30 hours) without sleeping (no girls and drinks), but with the Supernetwork and a tea:

A nice article indeed, but there's also another typo; BlueBerry instead of BoolBerry. Haha.

I just tried to download the wallet from:

Windows: https://mega.co.nz/#!a99DURDa!Xpb_x9QwUjfy2VcWxIEyJnSXv7JuGaRAMIwOhRkSCfE  Sha-256 Download Checksum: 8815dcaae99b90a57df1041759e5ccc52593298787ee7ad70b5792b28932017e


but since I am using an older version of firefox (13)   I cannot download the client...  WTF?  I just want to download a file....  I sooo hate fancy HTML


pretty dumb not to allow someone to download a file just because they dont want to use a fancy new browser!

Is teleport being worked on right now?



if so, is it safe to expect to see a beta or working teleport this month?

after I get some dinner

yes

sorry, I didnt get a chance for dinner had to spend 1hr+ to answer an accusatory who was calling my assets a ponzi and other unethical behavior

I am now in no mood for coding

no teleport work till tomorrow

The bigger supernet becomes, the more trolls and fudsters that will arrive. If you are going to answer every one, that will consume all your time.

at worst it is a 2 week delay

Ok. i think the procurement of a beta Teleport will reduce the negative noise. i myself have slipped from a very pro-BTCD stance to a much more neutral ground, due to the lack of Teleport. of course, i understand to an extent (having never arranged an ICO myself, cannot fully comprehend the work involved) how hectic Supernet has been. answering hundreds of questions and ensuring a level of fairness in distribution must be draining. i am just hoping to see evidence that teleport will actually work because as of now, it is incomplete. i can't read code so until i can use it myself i will remain neutral. as an investor it would be unwise of me to not hedge the risk that teleport might not work as planned.

i wish more people would take this stance rather than attacking jl777 and spreading FUD or blindly supporting because they profited some coin with the recent rise in price of jl777 related investments

i will wait and see what happens. best of luck to jl, for he is undertaking a substantially large project

If you look at the graph on cryptsy for BitcoinDark, and press the "ALL" button, you can easily see that BitcoinDark has gone nowhere but up the ENTIRE time it's been there. Clearly, BitcoinDark has some pretty damn good potential. People that hate on that obviously don't know what they're talking about. They need to be ignored, as they are only here to try and bring however many people they can down to their level with them so they're not the only ones missing out in the end lol.

I could be Talking about Teleport in front of the whole Crypto industry in Shanghai.

Just in 2 weeks I will be talking about anonymous technologies at the http://bitcoinexpo2014.com/ in China. I think there will be tons of experts and service providers etc curious also about Teleport.

In order to add the Teleport into my speech I would have to invest significant amount of time to do the research and to make some nice infographics (like I did https://i.imgur.com/lHhDQ4k.png + https://i.imgur.com/pMkJqMt.jpg). Including consultations with university profs. But since researching and presenting cryptos is still my only job, I am asking for donations in order to do that, to research Teleport and to present it there (see my signature)

That research and content will be then used also at the CoinsSource news site, where I am publishing, so there could be be more articles, some interviews with the BTCD devs etc. But still I feel that presenting Teleport in front of these people http://bitcoinexpo2014.com/#speakers, 20 media outlets with more attention to the chinese market could help Teleport become more accepted by the mainstream.

When people speak just about one solution, it's just cheap self-promo. But if the Teleport was shown in the bigger picture, among other technologies, with real examples how it could be used... then it should have a higher effect, since I am still an independent researcher, not just a marketing monkey

This is absolutely fantastic . I hope you get all the assistance you need to prepare. I am sure the community would appreciate being kept up to date on presentation. Info-graphics, and yours look really good, are always just so helpful to convey difficult subject matter.

Good luck!

I finally got my Visa. My offer is still valid. I spent only a weekend (30 hours) with the Teleport stuff, so I have some sources, but CryptoNote research took a month (300 hours) and a paper will be released tomorrow

[torshammer]

My take on current BTCD  price action is that dev needs to spend less time answering posts and slamming trolls and more time delivering the goods.

This is not Fud. This is "tough love" from someone who has been in BTCD from the start.  And sees an enormous timesuck happening lately in the wrong direction. This thread - and the coin - was best when the dev was posting code, not victories over trolls.

It would also be better if I could actually download the wallet...  why does the mega link require such a high end browser?  what the F

[apex944]

why does the mega link require such a high end browser?  what the F

Could you take that up with Mega ?
Nobody hear can help you with their business decisions.

If you search the thread there is a client hosted on DropBox as well.

Dropbox here

Is there another place to download the Windows wallet other than the mega link?  The link isn't working and I want to move the coins I bought off the exchange.

Thanks

I am uploading it for you with dropbox.

I have uploaded the windows wallet here.

If you were in from the beginning you should appreciate more, the fact that James so eloquently protects the investments and interests of all involved.  I'd rather see a delay in product over an out of control FUD campaign.

Here is how Teleport works with SuperNET

Each coin would implement the JSON handling specific to their coin, so when they receive the API command, they can process it.

The SuperNET is the transport
The services are applications

Easier to understand is telephone system. yes this is very good analogy.

There are local phone calls and long distance calls. The local calls are comms between people using the same coin. Long distance are comms between different coins. The area code is the coin.

Doesnt matter who you are calling, you can use the same phone connected to the same socket.
here is where it is not so exact, but thing of a service as a specific type of phone.
some phones have video, others have cameras, not exactly right, but hopefully you get the idea.

all the data is on the internect
all the different services are sending packets directly between two computers
each computer can properly decrypt all the packets sent to it and route the JSON request to the right service

Currently it requires changing the source code to add a new API call and of course the code to actually perform the API function.

I hope this is understandable, it is no easy to explain in english what should be a matter of showing some code fragments

current commands

Code:

    static char **commands[] = { getpubkey, maketelepods, transporterstatus, telepod, transporter, tradebot, respondtx, processutx, publishaddrs, checkmsg, placebid, placeask, makeoffer, sendmsg, orderbook, getorderbooks, sellp, buyp, send, teleport, select  };

example of one of the above

Code:

    static char *teleport[] = { (char *)teleport_func, "teleport", "V", "NXT", "secret", "amount", "dest", "coin", "minage", "M", "N", 0 };

the "glue" function that actually calls the teleport function

Code:

char *teleport_func(char *sender,int32_t valid,cJSON **objs,int32_t numobjs,char *origargstr)
{
    double amount;
    int32_t M,N;
    struct coin_info *cp;
    char NXTACCTSECRET[512],destaddr[512],minage[512],coinstr[512],*retstr = 0;
    if ( Historical_done == 0 )
        return(clonestr("historical processing is not done yet"));
    copy_cJSON(NXTACCTSECRET,objs[1]);
    amount = get_API_float(objs[2]);
    copy_cJSON(destaddr,objs[3]);
    copy_cJSON(coinstr,objs[4]);
    copy_cJSON(minage,objs[5]);
    M = get_API_int(objs[6],1);
    N = get_API_int(objs[7],1);
    if ( M > N || N >= 0xff || M <= 0 )
        M = N = 1;
    printf("amount.(%.8f) minage.(%s) %d | M.%d N.%d\n",amount,minage,atoi(minage),M,N);
    cp = get_coin_info(coinstr);
    if ( cp != 0 && sender[0] != 0 && amount > 0 && valid != 0 && destaddr[0] != 0 )
        retstr = teleport(sender,NXTACCTSECRET,(uint64_t)(SATOSHIDEN * amount),destaddr,cp,atoi(minage),M,N);
    else retstr = clonestr("{\"error\":\"invalid teleport request\"}");
    return(retstr);
}

the teleport function, which triggers other API functions sometimes locally sometimes remotely, uses some genetic algo for telepod selection, etc.

Code:

char *teleport(char *NXTaddr,char *NXTACCTSECRET,uint64_t satoshis,char *otherpubaddr,struct coin_info *cp,int32_t minage,int32_t M,int32_t N)
{
    static unsigned char zerokey[crypto_box_PUBLICKEYBYTES];
    char buf[4096];
    uint8_t sharenrs[255];
    struct telepod **pods = 0;
    struct NXT_acct *np,*destnp;
    struct transporter_log *log;
    int32_t n,err = -1;
    uint32_t height;
    if ( M <= 0 )
        M = cp->M;
    if ( N <= 0 )
        N = cp->N;
    if ( M <= 0 )
        M = 1;
    if ( N <= 0 )
        N = 1;
    memset(sharenrs,0,sizeof(sharenrs));
    if ( N > 1 )
        init_sharenrs(sharenrs,0,N,N);
    
    sprintf(buf,"%s -> teleport %.8f %s -> %s minage.%d | M.%d N.%d dest.(%s)\n",NXTaddr,dstr(satoshis),cp->name,otherpubaddr,minage,M,N,otherpubaddr);
    if ( minage == 0 )
        minage = cp->minconfirms;
    destnp = search_addresses(otherpubaddr);
    height = (uint32_t)get_blockheight(cp);
    if ( (pods= evolve_transporter(&n,0,cp,minage,satoshis,height)) == 0 )
        sprintf(buf,"{\"error\":\"teleport: not enough  for %.8f %s to %s\"}",dstr(satoshis),cp->name,otherpubaddr);
    else
    {
        free(pods), pods = 0;
        np = find_NXTacct(NXTaddr,NXTACCTSECRET);
        if ( memcmp(destnp->pubkey,zerokey,sizeof(zerokey)) == 0 )
        {
            query_pubkey(destnp->H.NXTaddr,NXTACCTSECRET);
            sprintf(buf,"{\"error\":\"no pubkey for %s, request sent\"}",otherpubaddr);
        }
        if ( memcmp(destnp->pubkey,zerokey,sizeof(zerokey)) != 0 )
        {
            printf("start evolving at %f\n",milliseconds());
            pods = evolve_transporter(&n,cp->maxevolveiters,cp,minage,satoshis,height);
            printf("finished evolving at %f\n",milliseconds());
            if ( pods == 0 )
                sprintf(buf,"{\"error\":\"unexpected transporter evolve failure for %.8f %s to %s\"}",dstr(satoshis),cp->name,otherpubaddr);
            else
            {
                log = send_transporter_log(NXTaddr,cp->NXTACCTSECRET,destnp,cp,minage,satoshis,pods,n,M,N,sharenrs,otherpubaddr);
                if ( log == 0 )
                {
                    sprintf(buf,"{\"error\":\"unexpected error sending transporter log %.8f %s to %s\"}",dstr(satoshis),cp->name,otherpubaddr);
                    free(pods);
                    pods = 0;
                }
                else
                {
                    err = 0;
                    sprintf(buf,"{\"result\":\"teleport AFTER CREATE BUNDLE to %s err.%d\"}",destnp->H.NXTaddr,err);
                    printf("teleport AFTER CREATE BUNDLE to %s err.%d\n",destnp->H.NXTaddr,err);
                    process_pingpong_queue(&Transporter_sendQ,log);
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return(clonestr(buf));
}

[jl777]

The last set of code adds the teleport sequence to a queue. We of course need to process this queue, like so:

Code:

int32_t process_transporterQ(void **ptrp,void *arg) // added when outbound transporter sequence is started
{
    struct transporter_log *log = (*ptrp);
    struct NXT_acct *destnp,*np;
    unsigned char *buffer;
    int32_t i,sharei,err=0,verified = 0;
    struct telepod *pod;
    if ( log->cp->initdone < 2 )
        return(0);
    np = search_addresses(log->cp->pubaddr);
    destnp = search_addresses(log->otherpubaddr);
    printf("log send %f complete %f\n",log->recvmilli,log->completemilli);
    if ( log->recvmilli != 0. && log->completemilli == 0. )
    {
        for (i=0; i<log->numpods; i++)
        {
            //printf("check %d'th pod\n",i);
            if ( (pod= log->pods[i]) != 0 )
            {
                printf("pod sentmilli %f complete %f clonetxid.(%c) cloneout.%d\n",pod->sentmilli,pod->completemilli,pod->clonetxid[0],pod->cloneout);
                if ( pod->clonetxid[0] != 0 && pod->cloneout >= 0 )
                    verified++;
                else if ( pod->sentmilli == 0. )
                {
                    void calc_shares(unsigned char *shares,unsigned char *secret,int32_t size,int32_t width,int32_t M,int32_t N,unsigned char *sharenrs);
                    void gfshare_extract(unsigned char *secretbuf,uint8_t *sharenrs,int32_t N,uint8_t *buffer,int32_t len,int32_t size);
                    if ( log->N > 1 )
                    {
                        buffer = calloc(log->N+1,pod->len_plus1);
                        calc_shares(buffer,_get_privkeyptr(pod,calc_multisig_N(pod)),pod->len_plus1 - 1,pod->len_plus1,log->M,log->N,log->sharenrs);

you can see it doing the M of N fragmenting and calling teleport_telepod

Code:

int32_t teleport_telepod(char *mypubaddr,char *NXTaddr,char *NXTACCTSECRET,char *destNXTaddr,struct telepod *pod,uint32_t totalcrc,uint32_t sharei,int32_t ind,int32_t M,int32_t N,uint8_t *buffer)
{
    cJSON *json;
    char numstr[32],hexstr[4096];
    json = cJSON_CreateObject();
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"requestType",cJSON_CreateString("telepod"));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"crc",cJSON_CreateNumber(pod->crc));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"i",cJSON_CreateNumber(ind));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"h",cJSON_CreateNumber(pod->height));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"c",cJSON_CreateString(pod->coinstr));
    sprintf(numstr,"%.8f",(double)pod->satoshis/SATOSHIDEN);
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"v",cJSON_CreateString(numstr));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"a",cJSON_CreateString(pod->coinaddr));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"t",cJSON_CreateString(pod->txid));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"o",cJSON_CreateNumber(pod->vout));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"p",cJSON_CreateString(pod->script));
    if ( sharei == 0xff || sharei >= N )
        sharei = N;
    init_hexbytes(hexstr,buffer,pod->len_plus1);
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"k",cJSON_CreateString(hexstr));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"L",cJSON_CreateNumber(totalcrc));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"s",cJSON_CreateNumber(sharei));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"M",cJSON_CreateNumber(M));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"N",cJSON_CreateNumber(N));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(json,"D",cJSON_CreateString(mypubaddr));
    return(sendandfree_jsoncmd(Global_mp->Lfactor,NXTaddr,NXTACCTSECRET,json,destNXTaddr));
}

turns out the actual teleporting is just making a JSON string! Now this is the "application" level stuff so it tends to be much simpler.

clearly the magical sendandfree_jsoncmd() must contain some magic!

James, which dir on your Github site is this code located?

My take on current BTCD  price action is that dev needs to spend less time answering posts and slamming trolls and more time delivering the goods.

This is not Fud. This is "tough love" from someone who has been in BTCD from the start.  And sees an enormous timesuck happening lately in the wrong direction. This thread - and the coin - was best when the dev was posting code, not victories over trolls.

I think the post you are looking for is here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=684090.msg8717360#msg8717360

If you were in from the beginning you should appreciate more, the fact that James so eloquently protects the investments and interests of all involved.  I'd rather see a delay in product over an out of control FUD campaign.

Please spare me the "if" and the "should". The post your linking to simply states a rational to be always responding to every attack. My point is that that sort of blind responding becomes a giant timesuck that kills the golden goose.

So there is the guts of the entire SuperNET!
As you can see it is not so much actual code. There are many special cases and nonstandard handling I skipped, but for those who are wondering how "real" teleport is, this has been pretty much working for over a month.
The SuperNET support is creating a need for some brain surgery and if I am not ready to code it, I cannot force it.
it is hard to explain.
maybe if you are an artist you can understand
force an artist to paint when he is no ready, then it wont be any good.
the reason is that I need to have all the things done in my head before I start writing
Now, maybe you are in a hurry to have teleport because?
cant wait for .02?

please let me make the Teleport + SuperNET to my standards. All the discussions with the SuperNET, questions, sometimes even trolls is sharpening in my mind the exact things that are needed.

James

P.S. for those who understand some coding, you know how hard it is to have small amounts of code do a lot of things, let along doing amazing things and you will not the long distance calling is not there yet. So, this I must do for SuperNET, then we get SuperTeleport! Not just teleporting BTCD to any other BTCD node, but BTCD to ANY node in the SuperNET. Isnt that worth a week or even two delay?
