I/O Coin (IOC) DiONS VM | Messaging | Data Storage | Chameleon | DeFi

[IO Dev Team]

Over the Next few months we are going to be asking our community to please stake your coins as much as possible. We want to run some test on the blockchain and need as many wallet's online as possible. We need them to be staking to test transfers and confirmation times. This is very important as we are running these tests to improve certain things in DIONS.

If you don't want to stake your entire stash you can cold storage most of your coins and stake a smaller amount.



PS. To our OSX users we are currently working on new QT wallet for El Capitan. Our current QT seems to be a bit unstable under 10.10.5 As soon as we have it compiled we will update. This will be temporary until we release the new DIONS wallet



Thanks

So DIONS is the DNS system IO coin uses?

[MrWhiteBites]

So DIONS is the DNS system IO coin uses?

No DIONS is not a DNS system, far from it and far more advanced and technical.

What is DIONS ?

Basically DIONS represents “Data on the blockchain” - (decentralized = not relying upon servers)

DIONS White Paper  EVERYONE PLEASE READ THIS > http://www.iodigital.io/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/ioc_whitepaper_dions.pdf

One of the many great features of DIONS it allows you to send and receive coins via an allias = username.  So goodbye, extremely hard to remember, hex addresses, welcome simple user names, as far as i am aware, no other coin in crypto has this ability in a decentralized way.


"When we were considering the future direction of this development, we wanted to leave room for storage
of records in a manner that the fees could be modified and also to prevent D/DoS on the nodes.
Other opcodes such as OP_EVAL and OP_LOAD will be introduced to allow the developers to revise the
conditions of the fees so that they can be calculated from both the size of the transaction and also the
number of steps involved with its procedure. The latter is the method used to prevent DOS attacks and bring
the I/O Coin platform to the same level to that of Etherium."


I am sure the IOC Dev team will build on my basic explanation.

Also, Thank you MR Higgins for renewing the domain always great to have more domains pointing towards iocoin.io and iodigital.io

and yes Mr C.  The Tortoise is beating the hare, slow and steady wins the race, along with the greatest dedication and belief and forward thinking the whole IOC team has shown and continues to show day in and day out!

Long Live I/O Coin.  

Also, i thought i'd never say this, but, PLEASE Do not sell out to Microsoft like some coins are doing, i am sure they will come knocking soon.

PS: Nice to see a team member from Digibyte here, Welcome 24hralttrade ! Happy 2 year Birthday for DGB, Good luck for the future.

Are there any plans to make the HTML5 wallet run on Linux? I'd like to run a physical node i.e. an always on Raspberry Pi for example for staking and securing the network. I could build another (Windows based) energy efficient machine, but if it would be possible on a raspi that would be awesome.

Once we get both windows and osx down packed will work on a linux based wallet..

Hi CTRLX,

What is the advantage of using Linux with a Raspberry Pi over using a windows computer using a Pi to run a node to stake the IOC wallet?

Really interested, i know nothing about Linux, i take it your are well versed in Linux operation, would love to here your views.  I also really like the idea of using Pi's to run nodes, other alt coins do it, dash very sucessfully, i think IOC could benifit greatly for education people about using Pi's to run nodes/wallets.

Thank you.

I think one advantage of using a raspberry pi is they only use like 5 watts,  windows computer would use what...like 10x the power.

Power consumption is a BIG factor for many when staking.  So if i am correct in my thinking. To run a node/wallet on a Pi you would.

1- Buy Raspberry Pi $30 - $60 depending on the one you want, a little extra with screen.
2 - Power supply, if one is not supplied i hear you can run these off certain mobile phone power supplies.
a very good guide here > http://elinux.org/RPi_VerifiedPeripherals
3 - Download the latest i/ocoin wallet.

Then i guess you will need some sort of OS system there, looking on ebay the memory cards all come with pre loaded software, so all good.

Then should be a case of using it like you would a laptop (kinda) and run the wallet to stake your I/OCoins.

So there is no need for linux, windows or Mac, or am i missing something?

How much memory would you need to run a IOC wallet?

Maybe the developers have a Pi and use it for running wallets and give us instructions?

Yes that is why I asked. A PI consumes so little energy, so I'd like to run that 24/7 for staking. The advantage of POS over POW becomes apparent when you don't have to invest in thousands of dollars worth of equipment to secure the network In my opinion POW will in the end lose from POS if there isn't a way to channel all that energy into something useful.

The distribution looks suss. There seems to be  a few holders with large amounts looking to cash in. Just look at Bittrex.

I'm guessing that early on a few people mined most of the coins, and are now hoping to get rich. Or is this wrong?

Regarding mining, look at the block explorer it shows the first coins mined, up until this day! All mined fair and square, simple as that.

Not at all!  This coin was below 1k sats a year ago, so easy to buy 1 million coins.  Smart investor and the Bittrex Sells have been there since the early stages of this coin, it is the dumpers who keep dumping at 15k then buying back cheaper. Not to mention those top 3 "largest" wallets most likely belong to Poloniex, Bittrex and probably Cryptsy.

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ioc/#!rich    Thats good distribution and not only that, it will get even better when old holders sell and new investors join the winning decentralized Blockchain I/O Digital team.

Comparing other POS coins with solid FACTS from BlockExplorer

IOC
40% avg staking.  30% top 10 (bearing in mind the top 10 contain 3 exchanges). 55% top 100 and 14% top 1000 wallets.  (#1 address owns 11%)
ARCH 23% staking. 32% Top 10. 48% top 100   20% top 1000   LArgest wallet own 21% supply
BLK 14% staking  38% top 10. 32% top 100 24% top 1000.  Largest wallet owns 20% supply
VRC 30% staking 32% in the top 10.  39% top 100  and 27% top 1000  Largest wallet owns 8%.

So as you can see, I/O Coin has better stats in nearly every area when it comes to distribution and Staking.  Only Vericoin has slightly better Largest wallet with 8%.  IOC wins all other stats.

I would urge more people to withdraw coins from exchanges (look at the mess with Cryptsy) and get them staking! Lets break 50% avg!

Looking at the Blockchain Explorer the distribution is good.  

Importantly, staking is 40%+ and has been for a long time also.  So at least 6-8+million coins are in wallets and most of them are staking.

There is NO other PoS coin with such fantastic staking and good distribution.  Cant argue with facts!

Hi is anyone else having troubles syncing QT wallet to blockchain?

[SpringfieldM1A]

Good volume today, I think we are getting some fresh attention.

[MrWhiteBites]

Hi is anyone else having troubles syncing QT wallet to blockchain?

No, the QT and HTML wallets work perfect. I actually installed the latest QT wallet on a friends machine yesterday (running Windows 8 ), it took around 20hrs from start to finish to fully sync, then when it was, sent coins to it which arrived super fast (under 5 seconds!) and i know they have been buying coins last night and today ad sending to wallet and are very impressed with I/O Coin, to say the least.  

On the exchanges i am seeing slow build up of buy support, some real stealthy buying going on, very positive signs!

The next few weeks i can see IOC in the 7k region no problem, still a fraction of it potential value, which i expect to be in the 100k region within 12 months from now.  (write this down and thank me later!)

[mctaino]

Just to clarify one more time. Some users are experiencing issues with the QT unexpectedly crashing in OSX Yosemite or El Capitan. We are aware of this issue and we are currently working on compiling a new  QT for OSX 64bit. Once we have it ready we will announce. We are also going to release a new version of our current HTML5 wallet with a fix to address book and another fix for link to usr/bin in el Capitan.


OSX has a new System Integrity Protection.

System Integrity Protection (SIP,[1] sometimes referred to as rootless[2][3]) is a security feature of OS X El Capitan, the operating system by Apple Inc. It protects certain system processes, files and folders from being modified or tampered with by other processes even when executed by the root user or by a user with root privileges (sudo). Apple says that the root user can be a significant risk factor to the system's security, especially on systems with a single user account on which that user is also the administrator. System Integrity Protection is enabled by default, but can be disabled.[4][5]


So we are working to upgrade the current qt and html5.
