Im just hanging by the sidelines, waiting, scratching my nasal cavity with a feathery drumstick and signing the opera. Im like a Moldovian prince shied away from his palace. Sometimes I think I should try to regain my position of a headliner but then when I vicariously get through the memories of being at the top of it all, I lose the yearning and start to remind myself that its not bad that world is careening out of control, it may in fact be serendipitous to all of us greedy monetary anarchists in a sense that we may get chance to build ours out of the aches of the imperfect system.

Yes we are planning to list Alterdot on a more popular exchange but have a few things to get through first. As of right now the chain is in 'lite' mode with all masternode and devfund rewards disabled along with PrivateSend and some other wallet functionality. These will be enabled again at block 1,037,000.

The name was specifically chosen to reflect our direction which is BDNS (Blockchain DNS) and IPFS (InterPlanetary File System). There will be more announced about this in the coming weeks but if you have any questioned in the meantime its best to ask your questions in our Discord.

As posted in our #Announcements channel in Discord back in January - "The BDNS is our main focus for the upcoming period. The next next big release, v1.8, will include the BDNS and together with it we will release our browser extension. Due to the recent integration of IPFS into the Brave browser this will streamline the user experience of anyone wishing to get a feel of the decentralized web."

Still to come are our new website and browser extension, both of which are currently being developed.

The release of ADOT v1.8 has taken us to a code base that's in line with DASH and has some of the BDNS features already in place. There will be more updates to the code base in the coming months as well as the project develops.

Are you going to list ADOT in a more popular exchange? Also, what is the motivation why you converted to the new name - Alterdot? What is in the name of Alterdot that you think will change the path of this project? Just wondering here...

Alterdot is now trading on Cratex.io - https://cratex.io/index.php?pair=ADOT/BTC

If you held any Bitcreds on that exchange they are now converted to Alterdot. You will need to create new buy/sell orders as all the old Bitcreds orders were removed.

Upgrading to Alterdot v1.8.0 is mandatory, there are about 7 days left before the next hard fork. This version restarts Masternodes, InstantSend, Development Fund payments and the Blockchain Domain Name System, old Bitcreds versions do not re-activate them. Alterdot v1.8.0 is one of the main updates in this transition to a better, safer codebase. Masternode owners should upgrade right away, extended instructions will be coming for setup. This is a period of rapid change.

Alterdot v.1.8.0 can be downloaded from https://github.com/Alterdot/Alterdot/releases/latest

If there are any pool owners that want to get started with Alterdot we are glad to help. A higher total hashrate makes for a healthier network.

Keep an eye out for more updates soon!

The new explorer for Alterdot is up and running and fully synced -  https://explorer.alterdot.network/

Bitcreds is now known as Alterdot! We will have a new look website, explorer and a new ticket - ADOT. We are currently in the process of migrating everything across from our old website and BCRS ticker. There is no change to the chain at all, all current Bitcreds (BCRS) addresses are still valid.


I will update here as further updates are ready to be announced.

If you haven't done so yet, please Join is on Discord as have an active community are are starting to run voice Q&A sessions.

Many more updates to come!

Just an FYI that due to the upcoming fork at block 1,034,000 I'm now actively banning all wallets with versions below v1.7.3 for 3 months. These banned nodes will also be included in the next bootstrap. If you haven't upgraded to v1.7.3 please do so immediately.

A brand upgrade together with a new website and a browser extension are coming soon, when those get released the roadmap will be updated. Our long-term goal is creating an integrated environment for the decentralized web built on top of our blockchain and Masternode network and IPFS. We're also exploring our possibilities to be listed on exchanges with higher volume, we are welcome to suggestions as we might miss some good ones.

aside from those updates, do you have plans on how to increase your trading activity on the exchange you are listed with?

so far, this month, the trading activities from cratex has been only this -  with those upcoming developments, do you think the trading volume/activity will improve? maybe time to put some items in your 2021 roadmap as nothing is written yet on your website.

The next version of Bitcreds, v1.7.3 is now available for download. This is a mandatory update for all nodes as it is the first stage of our transition to an upgraded codebase from Dash and the starting point of all future things which will be built on top of our blockchain and network.

The Bitcreds network will be reduced to lite mode or core mode after block 1,034,000 through a hard fork in order to start the transition. The Development Fund and Masternodes will not be paid in the reduced state of the network, InstantSend, Mixing and PrivateSend will not work as non-core features are disabled. This lite mode will last only several thousand blocks (it starts on the 14th of June and ends two weeks later). After the hard fork block the difficulty retargeting algorithm will change from DELTA to LWMA (https://github.com/zawy12/difficulty-algorithms/issues/3) and the maximum size of data stored with OP_RETURN will increase from 80 to 160 bytes.

On the 17th of June, the anniversary of our blockchain, the upgraded wallet will be released together with the initial version of BDNS. After block 1,038,000 Masternode and Development Fund payments will resume and all non-core functionalities will be enabled, our browser extension will also be released soon after and our website will be updated together with our whole brand as I mentioned before.

Not sure.  I think they are more active on Discord than here.

Yo, what's up with BCRS? 

There was a bug in v1.7.2 and after updating to this version the pool ran into some problems so that was the cause most probably. I've just re-released the wallet with a fix so it is now safe to upgrade.

Just a quick "heads up"
https://poolmine.xyz/ , miner finds blocks, but pool although showing hashrate, never shows blocks , and balance doesnt change. Missed out on 3 blocks so far.

We've released an updated version of the Bitcreds wallet which included the following updates;

•    Updated parts of the synchronization mechanism with newer code from Dash
•    Fixed the Proof-of-Work reward function
•    Protocol version has been increased to 70010, nodes with 70009 and previous are now rejected

v1.7.2 can be downloaded from https://github.com/Bitcreds/Bitcreds/releases/tag/v1.7.2.0

Builds for the external miner have just been released and they can be downloaded from https://github.com/Bitcreds/cpuminer-opt-kudaraidee/releases/tag/v1.0.0
This miner will allow you to start pool mining right away on https://poolmine.xyz/

Please note that mining on Linux will offer better hashrates for most processors. Also Ryzen CPUs mining on Windows with the AVX2 optimization will most probably get no advantage over non-AVX2, but this only affects Windows. On Linux everything works as expected with increases of up to 30% in hashrates for the AVX2 versions.

Just sync a new Bitcreds wallet with the network. Once done, shut down the wallet and replace the Bitcreds wallet.dat with your old Credits wallet.dat.

The addresses and chain is the same so all ald CRDS are still valid on the Bitrcreds chain.

Hey there, old CRDS user here, how do I redeem BCRS with CRDS? I have my old CRDS wallet still.
