Hello guys,

Fairly new to bitbeans, I love the idea of PoS so I bought up some beans.

What is a ballpark number for the size of blocks to get sprouts?

Also what is the bitbeanpool about? Is this like a mining pool only for sprouts ?

Thanks!

Opened up the beta online PoS sprouting wallet for BITB:

http://bitbeanpool.com

About 40 slots still open.  Feel free to poke around - sprouting does work correctly.  Adding features, will keep feature timeline up to date on dashboard menu.

Giving it a try. So far i like what i see. With tha current rise in BTC price i was thinking about cleaning out some of altcoins but with this option i think i will do tha opposite and pick up a bunch more BitBean. They are SUPER cheap right now.

"Bean Cash..More Than Digital Cash!"
An Update:

Progress is continuing behind the scenes on many projects. We are doing a major re-organization of infrastructure as we are consolidating from 6 VPS (hosted Virtual Private Servers) to a dedicated server (more capable hardware) and 3 VPSs. With the dedicated server, we will be bringing some nice new services online (Stay Tuned!). With the new infrastructure upgrades, we are able to keep operating costs in-line with only a marginal increase, while providing better resources for continued development and growth. Currently operating costs are just under $75 USD/month. Currently most all support for this project is coming from Bean Core members.


So a BIG THANK YOU to our Bean Core members who are helping to keep this project alive and moving forward!

Also a BIG thank you to http://www.cloudmonkey.xyz/ for providing one of our VPSs! The CloudMonkey donated VPS is being used to run a full-time BitBean node, bitbean-electrum server (for Android Keychain & future Desktop Electrum "wallet"), our private Git Server, and soon our own Jenkins/Hudson server!

Excellent! Nicely done. Very encouraging to see this kind of initiative!

How can we clone you?  Smiley

I'm sending you 100,000 BitBeans, the donation amount we request from members to join Bean Core (hint..hint).  Grin

pos reward is too much low is there any chance to increase it

Bitbean will continue to get harder to SPROUT as time moves on. If you are invested in Bitbean for the long-term, the reward of 1,000 Bitbean per SPROUT will be an exceptional reward when Bitbean is valued at 1,000 Satoshi. If your looking to make a quick return from Bitbean, you may want to look at alternative  crypto "coins" that are created for just pumping and dumping. Yobit has many to choose from. Don't take that as an endorsement, as I have not received a reply from Yobit, after they said the reason their Bitbean wallet was in maintenance, was that they didn't have any active nodes. They were supplied with over 100 active nodes over a week ago..and it is still in maintenance! So be very cautious if you trade there! They keep adding new coins (for a fee) but fail to take care of existing coin wallets. Not good.

A brief update.

One of DevCore's team member has a family member in the hospital, please pray for their strong recovery.

Meanwhile, I'm re-organizing the office and putting together a new Bean Lab. More developments forthcoming, after things get re-organized and setup here, and as other devs get back. As a side note, Bean Core now has it's own collaboration Git infrastructure for working on the new technology that will be in v2.0 (v2.0 Technology is being developed in a closed-source environment until it is ready for GA.)

Best Regards to all of our Beaners out there.

For the long-term win,

Shawn Kent (aka Bitbeaner)

P.S. Don't trade on Yobit, their wallet has been in maintenance almost two weeks. I've been in contact with them and they claim they have no active nodes. They were supplied with over 100 active nodes and encouraged to upgrade to the latest source. If the issue persists, I will be putting the issue before Bean Core to consider de-listing Bitbean on Yobit. Yobit has recently been adding a flurry of new scam coins, but not maintaining wallets of established reputable coins. So this is an area of concern. Would appreciate some feedback from the community on this issue as well. We've seen similar things happening with Cryptsy before it went belly up. (Reports are surfacing about withdrawl/deposit issues.) Yobit was one of the original exchanges that listed Bitbean, so it is not my wish to de-list them. It is my hope that Yobit can resolve the issue with it's Bitbean wallet in a timely manner. I have reached out to them and offered support if they need.



An update:

Thank you for all your prayers Bean Family!  DevCore's team member whose family member was in the hospital and sick, is back home and recovering.

still 57.000.000 are waiting for dump from 2FkKuwtXaWzwKpvRHxaHzjzsoUoNMQrjRS aka 2KEVjSYdNUSynumTNq6dwjAnhCcH4TERjw (110.000.000)

Who is the stupid owner of this wallet? place a sell order or dump it in one step. But do not sell bit by bit like a noob with a failed investment. you lost your money, it's hard for yourself, but this is cryptocurrency-world Grin (by the way, this coin has a "~95years" time line  Wink )

This owner is a member of Bean Core, who has not been active, except for initially signing up. Their balance of Bitbean has fallen below 5 Million, and without receiving any other verifiable address with at least 5 Million BitBean, will soon be barred from Bean Core.

And yes, Bitbean will be around long after many are just an archived memory. The development plan for Bitbean is very ambitious and details will leak out as things come together.

I like some of the entrys for Bitbean's new tagline, "It's more than just cash"..."it's more than just money":  http://www.bitbean.org/forum/new-bitbean-tagline-contest

The contest has come to an end, if you havn't posted a tagline..there still is a chance, I'll officially close the contest in about 8hrs.  Wink

If I request a rpc command like getrawtransaction, I get the error:  
Code:
{ [Error: No information available about transaction] code: -5 }

Is the -txindex Option not available in the current Version?

That is correct, it is not available in the current version. It is being added in v1.2 (Due out this summer).

If you have a project that requires it, let me know and Bean Core could do a custom build with it in, to hold you over until v1.2 is released.
The plan is to eventually catch-up to Bitcoin core (for the most part.)

Please contact via email if you need that ([email protected]). Still getting the new Bean Lab setup, so will take some time to catch-up.

thx for answer, I have a workaround for my problem, I rewrite the code at this point. If the projects are at a acceptable state, I'll get back to you.

I think the BitBean community should start using this https://www.cryptocompare.com/coins/bitb/overview to leave comments on the forum. It's very well build and I'm sure that we can reach more people by having a strong presence there.... what do you say beanners???

// I've already sent a message asking them to update the logo and left a positive quote some day ago

There is some additional info they are missing about Bitbean on the site, I posted on the forum there.

But overall, nice site! We should show them we appreciate it and use it Smiley
