[ANN] Syscoin- FINAL 2.0 LAUNCHED! *ENCRYPTION, MARKETPLACE, BTC INTEGRATION*

[mwheeleruk]

Just to clarify a few points about the CCN article too https://twitter.com/syscoin/status/570354278906228737

This thing is primed for the mother of all explosions price wise

I had no idea it was on BTC38

I'm going to politely sidestep these arguements to attempt to refocus things on Syscoin and @kamronk's statement:

Development Update!

Syscoin is not dead

Agreed. I'm doing my best to keep things moving and I've hit some hard times myself this week thus the exceptionally quiet week. I'd prefer not to elaborate on my issues but I'll just say its medical, and its family related. That being said I was able to get back to the "helm" so to speak and I'm happy to be back (better than other "real life" things I'm dealing with that's for sure  ).

In the spirit of transparency, the "team notes" from our weekly call (yes, we talk every Sunday at 3pm US/EST) have been posted publicly: https://slack-files.com/T03643FFW-F03PM7JSK-5c6afb9031

There is a new blog post, with lots of news and updates: http://syscoin.org/syscoin-update-focusing-on-blockmarket-and-platform/

The roadmap has been updated as expressed in the blog post: http://syscoin.org/roadmap

Got Blockmarket Beta2 rolling out Friday. Hang in there, beta2 makes it easy to add items (finally!) a critical component to a thriving marketplace

Thanks for the update,hope for the Future provides the best service.

What would be the comparison points? I'd be interested to see this too.

- decentralized?
- blockchain-based?
- anonymous?
- auction or fixed price?
- front-end platform: web? qt wallet? other software?
- static content dependencies? e.g image hosting
- node server dependencies?

Still holding this coin, since a friend give them to me as a gift. Waiting to see a good price to sell.

Here are some screenshots of the Blockmarket Admin interface, adding an item for sale on the Blockchain is now easy via a clean User Interface.

is this the same as silkmarket 1 or 2 which is centralized?

The market is full in Blockchain, total decentralization market place, Web is use as interface to interact easily.

Now imagine when it's complete and if some big investor use this to develop competitor for Amazon and Ebay.

[sidhujag]

Why would anyone use this?

Trustless market.. no costly backups needed its all stored for a small fee. No govt intervention on markets.

I'll let my peers speak for me

Development Update!

I intended to get a blog post out tonight but reading the comments here I think it would be more effective if I included a graphic so it will be posted tomorrow evening. In the interim Blockmarket Beta 2 is now LIVE. We're still going to release a beta 2 QT wallet but the QT updates are minimal in beta 2. Beta 2 is definitely focused on the web-admin side of things and making it easy to add/edit/renew items and manage inventory. Full blog post tomorrow with more info.

In the interim we have setup a demo site- "Blockmarket FFA" (free for all!). We stood this up so anyone can see how easy it is to add, edit, and update items running your very own Blockmarket. Feel free to add whatever you like!*

Market Website: http://ffa.syscoin.market
Market Admin Page: http://ffa.syscoin.market/#/admin
Admin Username: admin
Admin Password: unstoppable

*While this is all fully decentralized and cannot be taken down/censored we will "hide" any overtly obscene items added thru a front-end "banning" mechanism built into Blockmarket so, play nice

We hope people enjoy the demo site and the ability to play with the admin interfaces and get a feel for what Syscoin is capable of- this is just a small glimpse of what's possible with Syscoin's decentralized market. The FFA market could be taken down by *whoever* and would be back up instantly if another SYS user wasn't already showing these same offers in their Blockmarket. All "takedowns" do in terms of Syscoin marketplaces is remove a front end, the market remains and all that's needed to restore "easy" access is a few clicks to get the Blockmarket UI up and running. More is coming.

Please remember the demo site is running on the "testnet" so all SYS, and offers, are only available on the testnet- this is done not only for proper testing purposes but also to avoid filling the main chain with "test" offers. Instructions on how to connect to the testnet can be found here: http://syscoin.org/board/discussion/189/syscoin-testnet and if you'd like some test SYS to play with please tweet @syscoin with your address (it should start with a T if you're on the testnet [cakenet]) and ask for some "play money"
