Is there an updated roadmap?
Hi, yes. the second post is now updated with more detailed plan. it doesnt make sense to add any more dates, as i dont really know what they will be. although i will keep everyone updated on progress. will make a graphic for it soon.
@Griffith
Can you share information with us about how the filestorage on the blockchain will work?
Is it easy to use with drag and drop for example?
How does the user have to pay.... is it monthly, yearly or doesn't it have a time limit
Can a user use it to store and share it's documents with selected users or are the documents only available for him?
Can it be used to store contracts of any kind and size so that law firms, real estate firms and so on can use it?
How are you planning to advertise it?
Thanks.
i actually had asked a friend to help me figure out how to do advertising a few days ago, he is working on a plan. i dont have very many details yet.
a very high level overview of how it works is: a user wants to store a file, so they encrypt the file locally and upload it to the wallet (either on the command line or the gui). a fee to store it on the chain is calculated based on mempool size, amount of free space in the blocks, and size of file. The fee is how much it would cost to store it for 30 days (fee is in ECC) and the user can select how much they want to put in the "deposit account" to store the file. based on the amount spent is how long it would stay available.
so for example if it costs 100 ecc to store it for 30 days. and you spend 150 ecc, the file will be stored for 45 days. (can change cost view from 30 days to a single day, but its still based on how much is spent to store it)
the file is then sent as a transaction to wallets running storage servers and they store the data on their hard drives until the deletion date.
it is possible to add more time to a file by spending more ECC. the fee for storing a file is given to the nodes that are doing the storage. (so people get paid for running storage servers)
right now you have to select the file by either typing in the name of the file or using the built in filesystem gui that the operating system provides. i will try to add drag and drop if i can figure out how though.
yes. it is possible to send files to another user by using their public key to encrypt instead of your own, this process would be basically the same process as sending a normal transaction, you would need their address.
there is no restriction on file format. size is limited to 2 GB right now though. (can be removed in the future without any real recoding, i just have an imaginary hard cap set right now. MUCH LIKE THE 1MB MAX ON BITCOIN BLOCKS THAT SHOULDNT BE THERE. *cough*oh excuse me. sorry about that.
I am happy to see Griffith is still developing this Coin. Looking forward regarding the file Storage. - Maybe competing with Storj and Sia Coin...who knows.
I will have a talk to Griffith what we can do at the marketing side. Perhaps Youtube or Twitter Ads might be not too bad. Or an advertising Banner on Coinmarket Cap
Sure. feel free to PM me any time about it. I was having a friend look into some of that for me as well.
Youtube videos comparing your coin to other get good audience
We are planning to expand our youtube video list and podcast archive in the immediate future. Someone on the team is researching / writing material for them right now.
Just put 2.40BTC and already in profit =), best of lucks to the Devs will hold this one for long! Happy Wednesday!
Thank you for the support! =)
Great Buddy! Now lets see if we can start mining on this if possible.
The coin is PoS only. so the way to mine is to leave your wallet on and unlocked for staking and you will mint more coins over time automatically (as long as your wallet is online)
Is windows wallet staking working?
Yes, as far as i know this coin has never had a problem with staking. (if someone has had a problem they have never mentioned it to me or in the thread)
