BTCD is no more

[crackfoo]

There's some FUD regarding anon card which is completely unsubstantiated. We will be providing debit card solution for all SuperNET coins,
the contracts with the banking provider have been signed, they are fully aware of cryptocurrency nature of the project, 300 cards have already been ordered. We're waiting for the setup to finish. Banking works slowly, this is not cryptoworld. Debit card will be launched, nothing is failed,
just have a little patience.

Take a look at other providers of debit cards (xapo for example) - it took months for some of them to launch it, this is not easy, since there's a lot of negativity in banking regarding crypto.
As some of you might know we provide crypto to any bank card solution since several months, so it's not just some promises, they are backed by our track record.

Call it what you want, and say what you will. I initially believed so heavily in BTCD that i invested 50% of my groups resources into it. Now that there arent real updates on the things that I invested in Im stating the facts. This is your first post in regards to the status of the anon card, thanks for the update but i will continue to play the market. I am an investor not a mutual fund. I call it how i see it, If you dont like it make post in regards like you've done but don't call it F"UD when you haven't been communicating with the investors. Thats on you.

What updates are you waiting for?

BTC withdrawal from Bittrex has not gone through after about an hour of being "confirmed" on Bittrex.

BTC withdrawal from BTER went through after about 2 minutes.


I'm probably going to start trading on BTER more now.

of course Bter is a good exchanges but already is not comparable vs Bittrex. Your problem have been probably related to the Bitcoin network.

Hi, I want to participate the BTCD community as a tester.
What and how can I do so?
Thanks

Excellent, welcome!
Ask Azeh for an invite to the Slack channels (or wait for him to see this) - you'll find all you need there.

The latest shift for the BitcoinDark multipool paid out over 39 BTCD.

Cheers!

BitcoinDark & SuperNET testing going well! Sooo many awesome features. Cannot wait for the release! 

[jl777]

The new DB design made it so the old InstantDEX code was not quite right. I ended up rewriting it and most of it is gone! this is good as the less code, the less bugs. Still not fully debugged, but via DHT all orderbooks exist in the cloud

./b SuperNET '{"requestType":"placebid","baseid":"11060861818140490423","relid":"4551058913252105307","volume":"1.01","price":"0.006"}'
./b SuperNET '{"requestType":"placeask","baseid":"11060861818140490423","relid":"4551058913252105307","volume":"1.0","price":"0.0065"}'

You can dynamically create any orderbook between any two assets and the pricing is using arbitrary precision volume and price. this is converted internally to 64bit ints.

./b SuperNET '{"requestType":"orderbook","baseid":"11060861818140490423","relid":"4551058913252105307"}'
./b SuperNET '{"requestType":"orderbook","baseid":"4551058913252105307","relid":"11060861818140490423"}'

By changing the order of the base currency to relative currency, you can flip the orderbook to whichever orientation is more natural to you. Internally, there is only one orderbook with the "key" being (baseid XOR relid)
{
    "key":    "12008998766472701676",
    "baseid":    "11060861818140490423",
    "relid":    "4551058913252105307",
    "bids":    [["0.00600000000", "1.01000000"], ["0.00600000000", "1.01000000"], ["0.00500000000", "1.10000000"], ["0.00500000000", "1.10000000"]],
    "asks":    [["0.00500000000", "1.10000000"]]
}

{
    "key":    "12008998766472701676",
    "baseid":    "4551058913252105307",
    "relid":    "11060861818140490423",
    "bids":    [["200.00000000000", "0.00550000"]],
    "asks":    [["166.66666666667", "0.00606000"], ["166.66666666667", "0.00606000"], ["200.00000000000", "0.00550000"], ["200.00000000000", "0.00550000"]]
}

you can get more info by adding an "allfields":1, the most important is the address of the one making the bid/ask, that way you can directly "negotiate" the trade, so this means you can complete a trade offchain. To do this you need to use the makeoffer API and it will invoke the default tradebot on the other side, so I need to port the tradebots next.

{
    "key":    "12008998766472701676",
    "baseid":    "4551058913252105307",
    "relid":    "11060861818140490423",
    "bids":    [["200.00000000000", "0.00550000", 0, "7581814105672729429"]],
    "asks":    [["166.66666666667", "0.00606000", 0, "7581814105672729429"], ["166.66666666667", "0.00606000", 0, "7581814105672729429"], ["200.00000000000", "0.00550000", 0, "7581814105672729429"], ["200.00000000000", "0.00550000", 0, "7581814105672729429"],]
}

I have only tested this in some simple cases, so not sure how solid it is, but now I can maintain orderbooks for Telepods, so the needed components are coming into place.

Waiting patiently here too.....  Looking for a little BTCD/SuperNET stocking stuffer this year

[jl777]

trying a full teleport sequence, but getting stuck on a nasty bug.
some interaction of the DB with processing the data on the fly with some data corruption thrown in for fun...

OK, it is not very fun, but have to grind through this. I got things stabilized when running normally, but it seems when the full functionality is activated, something is not quite right...

finally got it debugged at least enough to get a telepod from one computer to another via telepathy
now the issue is that the receiving node cant easily verify that the telepod is unspent. this is a problem I have already solved with MGW and had most of that code already integrated in, but i was hoping I didnt need all that code for this.

Brilliant progress, very much looking forward to seeing this in the wild.

I am once again trying to install SuperNET. Has anyone done it from scratch recently? The instructions at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CGUgDAhimVhz7aHAnITeZGr2S4RiZPzF2LYZIWGbJ1E/edit have been changed, but they don't quite work.

I am experiencing similar problems when compiling using the instructions from james:

By the way, anybody that has an Ubuntu and goes:

git clone https://github.com/jl777/btcd
# Then you need to put your addresses in the demo SuperNET.conf and copy it to the libjl777 directory
cd btcd/libjl777
make onetime
./m_unix

will be able to get a SuperNET running. Once they are running and you have the various accounts funded:

On computer A:
./BitcoinDarkd SuperNET '{"requestType":"addcontact","handle":"computerB","acct":"<account for computerB>"}'

On computer B:
./BitcoinDarkd SuperNET '{"requestType":"addcontact","handle":"computerA","acct":"<account for computerA>"}'
./BitcoinDarkd SuperNET '{"requestType":"maketelepods","coin":"BTCD","amount":".0001"}'
./BitcoinDarkd SuperNET '{"requestType":"teleport","coin":"BTCD","amount":".0001","contact":"computerA"}'

Of course, this is still command line and it isnt using the best practices as the maketelepods creates traceable telepods, but it is quite a lot of what needs to be working that is already working

I think these instructions presuppose you have a working BitcoinDark installation first (I'm also a linux n00b).
I'm making some progress with the Google doc, which I think fills in the first steps, but it's not something you can type verbatim and get it working.

Thanks. I think I'm almost there now. I can't make SuperNET, but I think that's because clang has crashed so will restart and try again.
I'm pretty sure that I'll figure this all out just as the Windows wallet is released.

Seems like one of those commands solved the "aclocal-1.13" issue. Very good!
I now tried to start superNet. Im getting things like

Code:

...
got_newpeer(IPADDRESS) 25 before initialized.

But this is the last output since 20mins. Am I in superNET now or is it stuck?? I cant help it, Im so excited...   

Guess I first have to get the proper *.conf file settings. I will do that and then bother you all again    For me as a tech-noob I feel that there IS something working in contrast to all the other "MAKEPROMISEANDDONTDELIVER-COINS". I like it!!! Hopefully this also will reflect in price soon...

Big thanks to all that are involved and keep up the good work!

You need a SuperNET.conf in the same directory (btcd/libjl777)
there is a reference one in the btcd directory
make sure to customize it with the location of your .BitcoinDark.conf file and also addresses in your wallet

there will be a lot of printouts when things are setup right

P.S. 90% of the 40+ API calls are working to some degree, just need to finish the last few and then test the entire system. It is a race to see if I finish before the GUI is done
