When Blocknet will be more user friendly?
Doesn't seem like it atm. From what I gather, you must download the wallet of each trading pair in order to conduct a trade. It remains to be seen if people will actually go through the effort. Hi. While it is true that RIGHT NOW you must download whole blockchains, this will not remain true for very long. This is from the road map posted on the previous page (In Bold): Production blockchain launch
- Service nodes launch on mainnet
- Design specification document ("white paper")
- Decentralized exchange app ("UI")
- Decentralized exchange SPV multiwallet (no full blockchains) Once SPV in up and running, you will no longer have to download full Blockchains. :0 Oh no not again. Truxton....lijoe408 never mentioned anything about downloading ENTIRE BLOCKCHAINS. Yes we are all aware someday you'll tackle spv and you won't have to wait days while each blockchain is synced but that's beside the point. What he was bringing up, and which several others have brought up, is the fact that users will still have to download the wallets (NOT entire blockchains) of each coin they want to trade which will be a royal pain in the butt and a big turn off for any user looking to use blocknet. Crypto is complicated enough as it is, users want straight forward and easy to use tech. Ya we know blocknet is safer but if it isn't as user friendly as centralized exchanges it's got a tough road ahead of it. Think about it for one second. The only time you are in control of your coins is...? You have your own private key and when you have your private key, you will need...? That's right. The wallet of the coins that you control.... You can't ask for control of your coins and then NOT have the wallet of the coin you want to be in control of..... Each of you are right in one respect or another. BUT we could release a decentralized trading app with an integrated multiwallet. That way, you'd not have to download anything other than the app. Sound good? |

Sound good? Yes a multiwallet sounds very good indeed! Can you confirm that the production blockchain will be released this month? |

Apologies. I misread it. Not 100% with it as I have been ill for a week. What he was bringing up, and which several others have brought up, is the fact that users will still have to download the wallets (NOT entire blockchains) of each coin they want to trade which will be a royal pain in the butt and a big turn off for any user looking to use blocknet.
How long does it take to download a wallet? Also, most people will WANT to control their own wallets and passwords, especially with all the centralized exchange problems over the last month. I know I would. But there are other possible solutions as noted above. There are no problems, only solutions.  |

Hi all! My first ever post here. Thanks to this guys this project looks amazing. This will be one of the top 15 cryptocurrencies in 1 year time. Take snapshot if you want.  Just a few questions? How does the stake system works and what is the reward at the moment? If for example I have 3 days reward means that every 3 days I will get reward? And what percentage is that reward?

Hi, Currently the stake reward is 3% per year. The coins begins to stake 2 days after you put them in the wallet. It`s not necessary to leave your wallet open 24/7 to be rewarded 3%. If you open it let`s say every 5-6 days you will still be rewarded 3% per anum. After the fork the reward is going to be higher. Plus you`ll get rewarded for running a service node. |

This coin is very promising. Once the multiwallet is online blocknet will be used like a 100 times more than now and demand and price will skyrocket. This is clearly a solid investment!  |

Very exciting developments we are definitely going to be picking up a lot of these in the near future!

The dev team have definitely been dedicated to this project. 3 years of development and most of it is funded by Dan himself. |

so basically the launch of the new mainnet is a hardfork of the then old blocknet chain?
No, it's a migration to a new blockchain. Further details are in the press release. smells like duck turd looks like duck turd No, it's a rabbit bean. PRODUCTION BLOCKCHAIN FEATURES
With the release of the production blockchain, the following features will be supported:
Enforcement of the 5000 BLOCK requirement to run a service node (which shall not be alterable without implementing a formal improvement proposal)
Support for OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY (BIP65) on mainnet
Support for the service node voting system, which will enable governance of development funding, and network and protocol-related changes
Feature parity with Bitcoin Core
Block time: 2.5 minutes
Consensus algorithm: proof-of-stake
Annual stake reward: ~9% (10% of stake reward to fund development)
Codebase: Bitcoin Core + PivX masternode implementation max #service nodes? https://blocknet.co/?p=332 |
