Good News! We have a New Website!

Visit http://Ethix.Systems for more information on our project!

Wow, i was dreaming about such OS a couple of months ago.. Wish good luck to the team and the development.
waiting info about the presale.

I see screenshots of the OS in the posting, is it available for download yet?

Ethix will be a Open Source Linux Operating system. From our teams eyes, it will develop into many purposes.

For one, Ethix will allow any computer to have limitless computing power and storage, regardless of its actual hardware capabilities. This in its self it amazing, and is only possible by using Ethereum services in todays technology. By building a Operating System around the services, we can bring it together into a single super computer.

Another reason can be that the learning curve for knowing how to mine and participate in substantiating a network is often too confusing for an average person off the street to understand. Ethix will auto rent its unused processing power and storage out to the network, without much computer knowledge. From the end user's perspective, all they have to do is install Ethix. They will then receive payment for their computers unused resources and be supporting the Ethereum Network without having to worry about managing it themselves.

A third, building off the last, is that there is a big gap between a crypto fanatic and a average person on the street. Most people have never heard of Ethereum, or let alone Bitcoin. Even without that knowledge, peers will be able to install Ethix and use it as a home operating system and benefit from the Ethereum Network without having to understand how it works. Our intentions are to make the interface for the interface clean and cut, so that businesses and end users alike will be able to benefit from the Ethereum Nertwork.

Regarding to Bounty, it can be found here http://awarenessprogram.ethix.network/    The bounty will be updated when new website is launched this week, but the layout will be the same. A Bounty Thread will also be created, but it will contain the same information found on the PDF and new website, so feel free to get started.

interesting project sir. but, how to operate it and what's the purpose?
any bounty programs will be held??

I cannot give any minimum pc requirements of the Ethix OS currently as it is not currently fully complete, although, it is based off Debian, so the following can be assumed.

Minimum RAM: 256MB.
Recommended RAM: 512MB.
Hard Drive space: 10 GB.
Minimum 1GHz Pentium processor

I would suspect that with the added services and Ethereum blockchain being constantly updated in the background, requirements will be higher, but any modern PC should be able to handle it. Regardless, if the PC requirements are low, Integrated Ethereum Services will pick up the slack

Screenshots of the Ethix OS in a VM for UTC enabled logins has been updated on Thread.
Ethix Platform explanation and diagram added for clarification to whitepaper.

I apologize for lack of update in past two weeks, more will be uploaded this week. Entire website is undergoing major rework and should replace the current by the end of the week. New website will include Roadmap, Team, and Presale details.

whitepaper with technical details its very cool, but

i cant find info about date of ICO, PRE-ICO and prices.

This is an interesting project.  I look forward for this project.

Very good work dev. Thanks that you thinking do this. This can be installed on any pc or has minimum pc requirements?

Eagerly waiting for some demo alpha/beta release.
Good Luck if you deliver it.

Been interested from the first post. Progress is moving along great, keep it up.

This seems like a very well thought out project. I found the details in the whitepaper comprehensive. Although now I am eager for a demo video.  Good Luck!

Rather interesting idea. Integration with other coins and services! Want a timeline : )

add this project to my watchlist. how can I join bounty?

Truly interesting and fresh idea. Will keep my eye on this. 

It could certainly be used in a VM such as Virtual box on Windows Host.

Ethereum  OS
Will make easy for miner if use this OS next time
Like auto run mining or auto restart if have some problem when mining

Storj was our original planned integration, but recent advancements in Swarm has made it a better option. Swarm works directly with the blockchain in relation to Ethereum Addresses, and this is important for a better functioning platform. Swarm opens up way more possibilities than Storj provides from a coding perspective. For example, a user using the Ethix Platform to run a organizational database at a swarm location 0xa3hf83 can then proceed to add whitelist for which users it wants to be able to access that database. The users then can login to the database using their ETH address included in the whitelist to even a ENS domain such as database.companyname.eth that points at the swarm location.

Simple aspects like this would require a lot more work to achieve using Storj. However, this in no way would stop you from using Storj on the Ethix OS, it would function exactly how it on any other Linux distribution.

"Ethereum Operating System" sounds great and Very interesting project.

Eagerly waiting for the Ethix Node and Ethix Platform, to check.
