Facebook started in  a similar manner. Wish you well, maybe this can burst like facebook and those who invested will be lucky

Though it seems hard to follow the footsteps of facebook, but if they can attract some users to really utilize their platform, that would be a good start. There are countless social media channels nowadays and competing is quite a challenge. You need to provide an edge or a feature that will catch the interest of people especially these millennials. And their installs in google play is still small. They need to attract more users to use their app so it will boost their potential value in the market.

New release 0.1.3.12.1 - Mandatory update!
https://github.com/qbit-t/qbit/releases/tag/0.1.3.12.1

Added
  • newkey REST API request: import key or create new one
  • FORK: full nodes now obliged to support external connectivity, i.e. you should run your nodes with -endpoint and -port command line options and proper external port mapping on your router

Fixed
  • FORK: mining algo parameters adjustments
  • 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 exposing (drop your ./peers directory and restart nodes)

Two key changes:
1. now full nodes should support external connectivity
2. mining algo parameters changes: block emission goes to fast on the network, so we change it back to 5-7 secs (now it's 1-2 sec), emission and schedule was not affected, only difficulty adjustment and pow check as well

NOTICE: you have ~55 hours to update your nodes, after that hard fork will happened

        }
    },
}

Every shard hast its own state and synchronization status:

Code:
"state": "SYNCHRONIZING",
"synchronization": {
   "type": "PARTIAL"
}

"state" can be: SYNCHRONIZED, SYNCHRONIZING, INDEXING
"synchronization" can hold the following information:

  • type: FULL, PARTIAL
  • remains: in case of FULL synchronization indicates how much blocks remains to download and start indexing

Hi, there!

Little explanation on how to start node and begin mining.
So, if you have computer or virtual server with Ubuntu 18.x you can join and support Buzzer network.

How-to-mine.

1. Check system requirements (https://www.buzzer.network/qbit-cryptocurrency)
1.1 Node
  • Minimum (Qbit mining): 2 cores​, 2 Gb RAM, 150 Gb SDD, 10 Mbit Internet access
  • Optimum (Qbit mining, Buzzer miner/validator)​: 6 cores​, 8 Gb RAM, 350 Gb SDD, 20 Mbit Internet access

1.2 Full node
  • Minimum (Qbit mining, Buzzer & Cubix miner/validator, up to 500 light node or clients connectivity): 8 cores​, 16 Gb RAM, 350 Gb SDD, 50 Mbit Internet access​
  • Optimum (Qbit mining, Buzzer & Cubix miner/validator, up to 1500 light node or clients connectivity)​: 16 cores​, 32 Gb RAM, 500 Tb SDD, 100 Mbit Internet access
  • Maximum​ (Qbit mining, Buzzer & Cubix miner/validator, up to 3500 light node or clients connectivity): 32+ cores​, 64+ Gb RAM, 1 Tb+ SDD, 150+ Mbit Internet access

2. Download qbit daemon (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/sseqqclxu82c3dh/qbit.0.1.3.8.tar.gz)
3. Untar into ~/ or your current user home directory and follow the instructions (https://www.buzzer.network/node-download)

Thanks.

Hi!
We planning to implement bridge to the Binance Smart Chain for the QBIT and QTT. Also we decided to take participation in Binance Smart Chain Grant Program (https://hidorahacks.medium.com/bsc-grant-voting-guidelines-c8918d707af4). Now our application is already published at https://hackerlink.io/en/grant. And buy the way you can vote for our project (https://hackerlink.io/en/buidl/134) it gives us:
   a) traction,
   b) a little more publicity.

Thanks.

PS. Just for information: voting BSC contract https://bscscan.com/address/0x93cc3938ed0086986dd43743063fa917572ef310

Ah. Well, i removed it from the computer. I will wait for further computer smarter people before reinstalling. I installed it three times. It didnt work three times. So, i assume it would have been the homedirectory - because of the problems i never changed the settings before. But i cannot show you.

Ok, later we'll make instant setup wizard for the node.

Thanks.

Yeah, well. Might be. I followed all instructions you send to me. I keep getting a libjm error: no file found. If i forcefully install the libjm deb, he gives another error. And another. So that is a bit too much hassle to figure this stuff out. Especially if i dont know how it works. So either your walkthrough is not detailed enough or i am an idiot. Most likely the latter.

Although i always like new coins, especially coins with an idea. The amount of work to make it run is a bit too much. And for now that would also mean that this coin is not meant for mainstream public. Because if a computer illiterate like me cannot get it too work, your are aiming for the increased knowledgeable part of the community. And i will wait for a more idiot-proof product.


Understand, so just lets double check (btw, all needed libs are already in tar):
1. open terminal and untar archive into qbit (~/qbit in your home directory)
2. ~/qbit should contains:
2.1. /lib - all required libraries, you do not need any additional to install
2.2. buzzer-cli.sh
2.3. buzzer.sh
2.4. qbit-cli
2.5. qbitd

2. cd ~/qbit
3. just run ./buzzer.sh

Let me know and thanks

Getting libjm error when trying to run a node.

And one more thing: you should use ./buzzer.sh to start qbit daemon

PS. And check out ./buzzer.sh contents:

Code:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:~/qbit/lib
./qbitd -home .buzzer -threadpool 2 -http 8080 -roles fullnode -debug info,warn,error,store,cons,val -daemon

It is most common node parameters. And to adjust to your needs, pls, visit https://www.buzzer.network/node-download

Hi, there!

We eventually published Qbit platform sources - https://github.com/qbit-t
Now you can build node by yourself. Check out https://github.com/qbit-t/qbit#how-to-build

Will App Store users also get the advantage of earning from the app in the near future? I see that access to app is currently limited to only android users.

Yes, in near future, but push notifications will be disabled.

In the past, there have been many startup social media platforms that are no longer developed and some of them failed halfway due to a lack of enthusiasts. Even though they have offered various data security and benefits like some of the ones you offer here.

What makes this platform different from others and why are you sure it will grow? To be more precise I am asking for the ultimate offer of this platform

You are right. In the past. But today informational landscape was forcefully changed. And as I know dozens teams are on the way of making an alterntives for the centralized platforms. But we have already gone from idea and concept to implementation. And at the moment, the network and the application are working, special mechanisms have been implemented so that the community can moderate the content and many other specifics. We are planning (and already making progress for the next major release) to implement pay-to-go or payed content, including any media materials, micro articles & etc. We have some earning models - you can get reward for your equipment (mining), you can sell content, you can get interest on your "shares" from commercial transactions.

Whether this platform will be successful - I don't know. We offer an open partnership to everyone who may be interested in it. Our goals are simple:

  • Create a unique set of applications that allows people to establish self-sufficient and sustainable social digital communities.
  • Provide tools to allow the community to take control of the rules and infrastructure for digital information exchange.
  • To create a decentralized platform that is resistant to external censorship and the imposition of external regulatory rules.
  • To create tools and conditions to facilitate and support the development of individual digital entrepreneurship.

Can this platform be a successful story - I think, yes. All depends on us in a broad sence.

PS. And by the way - Cubix can be used as decentralized content distribution platform.

Hi there!
Qbit platform was built from scratch. We've started development around 1.5 years ago. And now we have: robust, flexible, scalable and fast blockchain platform. Moreover blockchain platform with basic and common functions was ready around a year ago. But we decided not to start pushing Qbit in public then. We decided to build a product, end user product. Not just "technology for technology", but product with useful functionality. And finally Buzzer as DApp on Qbit platform was born. Yes, we still in the beginning of adoption of blockchain technology for the mass market and there are more to do. But first steps was done.

For now Buzzer has familiar look'n'feel and functionality for the ordinal people. Those 600 mln who use smartphone as communicator in their every day life.

Try #Buzzer. Together we'll make this world a better place. Smiley
