[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[pinballdude]

I see that BURST is getting delisted at CCEX, however I trade at Yobit now, while BURST is not listed on Yobit.

Could we perhaps list BURST on yobit until the interest of people gets back. It is the only exchange now that accepts smaller coins, and it will help BURST survive until we are ready to break through.

(It would be easier for me too to save on transaction fees)

What do you think guys?

It is possible to add BURST to yobit, from this link, and it's free of charge:

https://yobit.net/en/addcoin/

We can try, but a very quick look seemed to indicate that NXT is not there, so they likely don't have the infrastructure ready for coins derived from the NXT code.  NXT is totally different from bitcoin in many ways, the two don't share any sourcecode.

I want to start the specs and design of making BURST able to store data.

anyone want to participate in this?

What i personally think would be cool, would be something totally decentralized, totally encrypted. it should not be possible for anyone to know what they store, or what people are requesting, yet, the network as a whole should be able to serve requests for data, and searches for data if data was put there to be searchable.

i guess it should cost a little to read data off the network, and it should cost a little to put data into the network.

it might also be possible to put data in, that cost more to read, then the profit could go to the "owner" burst address of the data

i would assume people could then choose what amount of diskspace they want to use for mining, and what amount for keeping data in the BURST cloud. If you keep data, it will just look like encrypted garbage, you would not know what it is, and not be able to read any of it.

This is a huge task, i expect we'd have to create a file system from scrath and then some, but the reward would be the first decentralized totally anonymous totally non-cencsored file storage with general access as well as protected access. Sort of like utorrent only where nobody will be able to tell what you are downloading and uploading and storing.

what we have going for us is a working payment system ( BURST ) and the first 10PB or so owned by people in the community.

Btw. i don't even know if it is possible to make it anonymous to the degree i want it to be, but i haven't yet seen any hard evidence why it should not be possible.

These guys are doing pretty much exactly what you are talking about
http://storj.io/

Storj pays data holders in STORJX, and the network keeps track of the stored data and the locations.  The 'stores" are payed proportional to their up-time and capacity.  Burst uses its storage capacity to store pre-hashed "chunks" that are used to maintain the public record of transactions (block-chain).  The burst block chain allows for A market, Assets, Automatic Transactions, and of course the public record of all transactions.

The storage conversation has come up a few times, but it seems like BURST and storage are two separate things.  Putting effort into making a decentralized exchange, a clean and user friendly market interface, or any-type of user friendly interface for BURSTs many features would probably be time better spent, along with being an "easier" goal to achieve.

Just my 2Burst.

Good-Luck

Unless original dev comes back I don't really see this coin going anywhere, has anyone tried contacting him yet?

So other coins are already doing that. Maidsafe, Storj, Sia

Why not spend more time devising Ideas on how to work together on our brother coin Qora which already supports small file uploads and can be exchanged with Burst on cross chain transactions.

I agree. I own some Sia and monitor their thread. It seems extremely complex to offer redundant file storage off blockchain and compensate hosters for storing files. Not something you can just tack on to an existing coin in a few weeks.

File-Sharing via Burstcoin could quite 'easy' be done.

The Usecase:
- You uploaded files to Usenet or File-Hosters or FTP or whatever ... and optional protected them by password (rar/zip).
- Now you want to 'sell' this files for BURST.

The Solution:
- Create a new account with optional accountInfo (Name and description) about the files that are provided by this account. (for example a tv-show season)
- Send encrypted messages to this acccount, containing the download url and the password for the download (e.g. one for every episode of the tv-show)
- Offer the download in Market and finally provide the password of the above created account to anyone that buys it. (Could think of AT that does it automated ...)
- The customer can now access the account, decrypt the messages and access the files.

Notice:
This could be simplified for users by writing a special client that just uses the burst server api. (no need to access the wallet)

Advanced:
A encrypted message can contain ~1kb of data, a special client for File-Sharing could use JSON as format for different kinds of data-info stored encrypted in the blockchain ...
e.g. usenet-download, hoster-download (upload.to etc.), ftp-download etc. in detail the needed data differs a bit.

However, i currently think of (and started to implement) such a file-sharing client based on burstcoin blockchain ... this is no decentralized storage, but could solve the problem to receive micropayments for uploads.

Edit:
Burst already has a build in decentralized storage with encryption ... you can store 1kb data for 1 burst in a encrypted message, thats 1000 burst for a MB, quite cheap at current burst prices :-)  Sure, we need a little software to split a file in pices (if needed) and send the needed messages. On the other side collect messages and rejoin the parts back to a file. Just a theoretical case ofcause, mass usage is not possible at max. 255kb in 4minutes. But hey, if you want to give your files a higher prio, just pay more for your transactions :-)

There is quite a lot, that could be implemented using the burst server api and ATs, even without wallet updates within near future ... be creative!!

Unless original dev comes back I don't really see this coin going anywhere, has anyone tried contacting him yet?

Of course.

I disagree about him being the only one who can develop the coin, and even made a suggestion myself as far as a structure, new main dev, and roadmap for future of the coin.

Unfortunately these suggestions couldn't be come to an agreement upon.



Now there is not all that much forward momentum with the coin, and I think there are ways still to make this happen, but without structure for the team and delegation of project parts to complete for each, I'm not sure how well this will be completed, nor how fast.

I have plenty of ideas myself, but I'm extremely busy right now with my company, and simply don't have much time to do anything regarding BURST right at the moment. This should change in the near future, so hopefully then this will make changes to the overall direction things seem to be going right now.


Regardless, there are quite a few people invested fairly heavily in this system, and don't want to see it fail, the main issue I think is that we can't really dedicate any sort of 'full time' work to the coin, because there's no pay involved and people have to make money to survive. This is my issue at least.


I don't think the coin is dead by any means, but I do think there is a lot that could be done to help things get back on track, if we had the money to hire people to do it, or someone willing to do it without pay. (which was part of my suggestion as well.)

So for the moment, we've gone to an 'open development' system, which I didn't think would work out that well, and thus far has proven true. Hopefully this will change, but I'm not sure.

I guess we'll just wait and see what happens, as this is really the only option we have during a time when no one can agree on some solid suggestion, nor suggest another in its place.


we all have high hopes, but the thing that needs to happen is action, not hope. Without the time for this action to be accomplished, nor the people willing to make the action come to fruition, there's an air of uncertainty that looms strong in the atmosphere of BURST.

I'd love to see another burst-like coin, got lots of hdd-s ready

I'd love to see another burst-like coin, got lots of hdd-s ready

I doubt it, this coin has been around for over a year that should've happened by now.

[duncan_idaho]

File-Sharing via Burstcoin could quite 'easy' be done.

The Usecase:
- You uploaded files to Usenet or File-Hosters or FTP or whatever ... and optional protected them by password (rar/zip).
- Now you want to 'sell' this files for BURST.

The Solution:
- Create a new account with optional accountInfo (Name and description) about the files that are provided by this account. (for example a tv-show season)
- Send encrypted messages to this acccount, containing the download url and the password for the download (e.g. one for every episode of the tv-show)
- Offer the download in Market and finally provide the password of the above created account to anyone that buys it. (Could think of AT that does it automated ...)
- The customer can now access the account, decrypt the messages and access the files.

Notice:
This could be simplified for users by writing a special client that just uses the burst server api. (no need to access the wallet)

Advanced:
A encrypted message can contain ~1kb of data, a special client for File-Sharing could use JSON as format for different kinds of data-info stored encrypted in the blockchain ...
e.g. usenet-download, hoster-download (upload.to etc.), ftp-download etc. in detail the needed data differs a bit.

However, i currently think of (and started to implement) such a file-sharing client based on burstcoin blockchain ... this is no decentralized storage, but could solve the problem to receive micropayments for uploads.

Edit:
Burst already has a build in decentralized storage with encryption ... you can store 1kb data for 1 burst in a encrypted message, thats 1000 burst for a MB, quite cheap at current burst prices :-)  Sure, we need a little software to split a file in pices (if needed) and send the needed messages. On the other side collect messages and rejoin the parts back to a file. Just a theoretical case ofcause, mass usage is not possible at max. 255kb in 4minutes. But hey, if you want to give your files a higher prio, just pay more for your transactions :-)

There is quite a lot, that could be implemented using the burst server api and ATs, even without wallet updates within near future ... be creative!!

This one is amazing. If you or someone else can implement it, it will be huge thing. I don't care of burstcoin price. IMO lower is better to buy more I want price drop to 1 satoshi

Unless original dev comes back I don't really see this coin going anywhere, has anyone tried contacting him yet?

Of course.

I disagree about him being the only one who can develop the coin, and even made a suggestion myself as far as a structure, new main dev, and roadmap for future of the coin.

Unfortunately these suggestions couldn't be come to an agreement upon.



Now there is not all that much forward momentum with the coin, and I think there are ways still to make this happen, but without structure for the team and delegation of project parts to complete for each, I'm not sure how well this will be completed, nor how fast.

I have plenty of ideas myself, but I'm extremely busy right now with my company, and simply don't have much time to do anything regarding BURST right at the moment. This should change in the near future, so hopefully then this will make changes to the overall direction things seem to be going right now.


Regardless, there are quite a few people invested fairly heavily in this system, and don't want to see it fail, the main issue I think is that we can't really dedicate any sort of 'full time' work to the coin, because there's no pay involved and people have to make money to survive. This is my issue at least.


I don't think the coin is dead by any means, but I do think there is a lot that could be done to help things get back on track, if we had the money to hire people to do it, or someone willing to do it without pay. (which was part of my suggestion as well.)

So for the moment, we've gone to an 'open development' system, which I didn't think would work out that well, and thus far has proven true. Hopefully this will change, but I'm not sure.

I guess we'll just wait and see what happens, as this is really the only option we have during a time when no one can agree on some solid suggestion, nor suggest another in its place.


we all have high hopes, but the thing that needs to happen is action, not hope. Without the time for this action to be accomplished, nor the people willing to make the action come to fruition, there's an air of uncertainty that looms strong in the atmosphere of BURST.

Inclined to agree with that.  Coins can definitely survive, and even flourish, without the original developer.  Qora stands testament to that, as development is progressing rapidly.  But Burst does need to get organised and assign some roles in order to achieve the same kind of resurrection.  Once you have the new devteam in place, I also thoroughly recommend a new, self-moderated thread.  Buying as it drops in price.  I'm still confident this coin is going to good places in the long run.

Would you like to invest in Storj Labs?
https://bnktothefuture.com/pitches/2366/_storj-building-the-most-secure-cheap-private-cloud-storage-using-the-blockchain.html

I want to invest in this project via bnktothefuture but at a lower amount than
the minimum $1000 buy in required.

So I thought about sharing the offer via a Burst asset.

Would you be interested in a Burst Asset for Storj Labs?

Together we would need to raise $1000 worth of Burst within 24 Hours. I'm happy to
put in about $250, so really need around $750.

Are you interested in this offer? I need a few solid commitments and I will create the
asset and provide all the relevant details.

[Erkallys]

So BurstDev left the project, right ? In that case, why not you (all the biggest BURST contributors) all organize to form a real new dev team to push the coin forward ? If this come to happen I could be your French representative.

this sounds like a plan but i currently think it would be much more comfortable for this team to fork burst, offer a 1:1 AT based coin conversion into both directions and start with a new name.

this i think because there has been no contribution as forum action or github activity from the original dev for a while.
if he comes back at a certain point we may join the fork back into the original version with the original BURST brand.

this would enable the new team to decide whatever they want and the community to switch between both forks independently to whatever they prefer.

to enable the 1:1 AT based exchange mechanics there would have to be done some research if the rate can be pegged dynamically based on external data sources to keep a exchange attractive at all market situations.

Hey,

I'd like to know what interest there is to buy brand new HDDs (also laptops and GPUs) in the community. Through a really big procurement that I'm directing IRL, I'd be able to offer decent discounts. The negative side is that I can only handle a few different models (those my employer chose to buy), although many of each one.

As an example:

WD Green WD60EZRX 6TB IntelliPower 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Standard price is $279 but newegg have them on discount for $222.

Seagate Desktop SSHD ST4000DX001 4TB 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Solid State Hybrid Drive Bare Drive Standard price is $279 but newegg have them on discount for $229.

I'd be able to sell these for approx. $170 (EU) and $185 (US) incl. shipping.

These are examples to give you idea of what percentage the discount would be offered.

Thanks!

I agree, I think forking and rebranding with a fresh start should be ideal.

just breached big number in BURST, it does not appear there is anything wrong with the coin, in fact the whole alt landscape is depressed (temporarily)

if you do fork you better have a very good reason to do so, if you do fork, I sure hope all that work that I have done can be transposed onto new blockchain

in any case, I would not fork and instead enhance this as is

yet to sell a single BURST because at these levels it is down right stupid to do so, even couple of thousands of dollars is not much these days , if you think it is you better find something else to do

We already have cloned to a new git, we aren't planning on forking. I've spoken to Poloniex and gotten them to follow the new git. I will do the same with trex once we can get some people doing active dev.


I'm going to suggest a small change to put up a new version and get the exchanges going with the new git, then we'll start actively making changes that are bigger, and get the ball rolling again in the right direction.


As I've always said I'm not going anywhere, but I've been really busy lately and haven't had much time to focus on anything more than my own company.


That being said, I'm already getting very close to a point that I'm going to be offering shares of my company for sale on the AE, and eventually pay a dividend based on a percentage of my company's income.

I will write up the details on this and make the new asset soon. I am doing very well since the refocus/restructure/change in direction of my company, and I'm growing at a rate much faster than I thought I would.



Currently I'm going to be building an extremely awesome custom watercooled system with a Titan X in it for a client. I'm also working with a partnership with a telecommunications company. I firmly believe that my company will be an extremely good investment when I get this asset structured and started.

Everyone knows that the assets I release are stable and have always done exactly as they have been structured. This new one will be no different.


I'm hoping to bring BURST into 2016 in a very solid and well-defined manner, with ease of use and overall use skyrocketed. I firmly believe the AE is a very great method to accomplish this. As is the marketplace. Automatic transactions will be as well, once the ease of use is fully setup there, and the basis of uses is expanded, and people made aware.



be on the lookout for the asset release in the near future, and invest into Crowetic Computers, LLC. We will not let you down.
