Topic: [ANN] HORIZON (HZ) New ANN thread - page 3. (Read 2717 times)

Okay. It exists a web wallet at a node? Maybe it is enough for our business.
Just now not simple to download the whole chain. It means a lot time...

I note here, what I did... I use a Windows 10 system with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). I use Debian app on it. Bookworm. I installed Java jdk 8, because it a must for the old source of HZ. The source I get from my github repo, as usual. compile.sh and it compiled without issue.

Java 8 for Bookworm:

Please check also:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/749903/how-can-i-install-java-8-on-debian-12-bookworm

wget http://www.mirbsd.org/~tg/Debs/sources.txt/wtf-bookworm.sources
sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/sources.list.d
sudo mv wtf-bookworm.sources /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
sudo apt update
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk

github repo:

git clone https://github.com/ifinta/hz-source

It can be started with run.sh, but not yet working, because I need to open ports from the Windows Subsystem for Linux to the world...

~~~~~~~~~~~ it was here a week pause, sure

I got some serious issues, but IT EXISTS a known bug in the networking of WSL... WSL don't let run init and it don't detects, that the Windows got an another networking environment, for example, the Windows system was in sleep state, and woke up It was before Windows 10 a known issue, and MAYBE Windows 11 solved it. MAYBE I can't test it just now...

It means, Windows should be switched off, and next day should be started. The WSL should be well closed and started also. Not for a well server, sure.

I don't want to install a Debian, I don't want a 1000 years old Java Dev Kit on the Windows, so I decided to restart my "server" every day I would like try WSL well, as I said earlier.

Some useful Windows commands:

netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=7776 listenaddress=127.0.0.1 connectport=7776 connectaddress=172.25.23.6

The address of 172.25.23.6 on the side of Windows changing randomly, of course. WSL don't detect it, I hope, clear for everybody, why it isn't a good decision to use the system. But.

route print, ping, tracert, ...
wsl.exe -l -v

to see the Name, State, ... of the distro.

wsl.exe -t Debian

to make a restart of the WSL. It should be well stopped, of course, before you do it. If you exit the app, the process don't exiting. It remain in the life in the background. Nice. If you don't have the state of the system in "running", then it won't be restarted, of course. Nice.

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=

It isn't tested well yet. Just to remember.

netsh firewall show state
wsl.exe hostname -I
netsh interface ipv4 show config

Some useful Debian command (bookworm):

ip address show, ping, traceroute, nc (netcat), ...

What is maybe useful, that the HOSTNAME of WSL system will be an subdomain of mshome.net ... Interesting thing, because the domain, the mshome.net is a well public ip address, and the .msome.net get a PRIVATE IP...

You can use this link to sign into the Horizon Network. It isn't a node required then from your side, you can use the link with a browser, and it working well up to now...

I stop this task for today. I continue it later or after the Holydays, maybe at Newyear. Happy Holydays

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ just another pause ...

Awesome!

All you need do is fire up a HORIZON node, hz-v5.4 is what I am using it was the latest version I managed to find.

In its config file of course all the old default nodes are long gone, but I do not plug my nodes in in place of those I put mine in as well-known nodes. Either would work though.

Plug into it LFM.knotwork.com, Server1.Knotwork.net, UFBSH.no-ip.org, UFBAR.ddns.net and UFBTR.ddns.net

If you want to help prevent forking of the blockchain or just want to use a staking pool for staking, there is a staking (forging) pool running at http://lfm.knotwork.com:8810/ which pretty much all the players with enough HZ to bother staking/forging seem to be using. We have had problems a few years back with forking so that might be best idea for now, especially considering that the default distribution is set up to want three nodes already on line and in synch with one-another just to get started since by default it checks each block received against two nodes other than the node it received it from before accepting it.

You should be able to make buy offers with your existing bags of HZ, the game's assets on HORIZON are listed at https://MakeMoney.Knotwork.com/horizon/assets/

Note that we do not use the so called currencies, only the so called assets, since trying to create currencies after the first few we created it just kept insisting name already in use for any more we tried to create also not sure the math of trading them etc even works for those it did allow to exist. So we replaced any we had managed to create with assets.

As for the value of HZ, we had trading going pretty nicely assuming one HZ was worth about a penny or cent, whether U.S. or CAD or Australian or GBP or Euros, anything in that kind of ballpark, but some massive whale trashed the price of HZ on Stellar so insanely low that pretty much everyone deleted all their sell offers of everything in HORIZON until some day when a proper buy-side is built up on Stellar for HZ enough to give players some confidence again that there is any point trying to come up with sensible sell offers selling things for HZ.

The Stellar assets, including HZ, are listed at https://MakeMoney.Knotwork.com/stellar/

The tables and plots of asset values, dating back to 2012, are online at http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/digitalisassets.html

EDIT: If you yourself are a huge whale in HZ you might think about the idea of making HZ into a "treasury-based asset" in the game so as to make it have a calculated value within the game, since it might prove easier to bring its calculated value up to a useful level than to bring its spot market prices on Stellar up to a useful value. I already started discussing how to set up treasury based assets in one of the [Galactic Milieu] threads in the altcoin discussion section of these forums.

Nice to hear about You, Sir!
I am actually not in Hungary. I am in Miami. If we can meet, it would be nice, I should express. I am in Miami since ~six month. My server at this time in Hungary offline, but it is in a safe place. I have there some backups about old sources, what I successful grabbed from the github. Maybe there would be some information also about this explorer. Maybe. I can't travel back to Hungary, I requested here asylum. In the days I was able to login again in this account. I should express, I neeeeed some coins, and I have a lot HZ. It would be nice to speak about it ASAP. You have good chances to get some HZ, other HORIZON ASSETS of Yours, ... with a well price, sure.

Have a nice day, Sir! Your post made my day, I feel!
Sincerely,
ifinta

Afaik blockexplorer.horizen.global used to be one one of the most useful explorer during earlier days, there is one video in youtube which is 6 years old posted by user aqua Youtubelinks mighty helpful for you.

Once upon a time, back around the time HZ got de-listed from Poloniex, there used to be a great explorer-type site for it.

Some time later I even talked on phone with a chap who claimed he knew the folk who ran it and could maybe get them to put it back online.

I long ago lost the old phone that had his number so figured it was long past time by now to enquire here about it...

Does anyone have that old site or code?

Any chance it or something like it can be put online again?


-MarkM-

Doesn't seem to work?

-MarkM-

Yes, it works

running Horizon Server. blockchain is downloading appears to be caught up!

Firing up my server again after some downtime. Running from my old residence thru remote desktop lol. Couldn't move all my hardware to Texas.

See http://makemoney.knotwork.com/stellar/ for all the coins/assets I have so far set up on the Stellar platform.

See also http://makemoney.knotwork.com/horizon/ as there are more set up on HORIZON platform than on Stellar platform, partly because I have not implemented the "shares" type assets on Stellar in order to help people keep in mind they are in game shares of in game Corps, like shares in EVE online of companies in EVE online, and in particular they are not "securities" outside of the game even though within the game sure yeah they are what governments in the game would presumably classify as "securities".

In the Latest Rates include-file, "shares" have a lowercase-s prefix indicating they are shares.

For example DVCrate is value of a DeVCoin, sDVCrate is value of a share of DeVCorp.

So HZ is now actively trading under stellar?
No market is listed in CMC so maybe, time to update your other info as well.
At least give encouragement for long time followers of this old alt.
Very few old alts are still alive today, so encourage the community to check out again your project.

HZ/XLM and HZ/DVC are set up on the Stellar platform.

For HZ on the Stellar platform see http://makemoney.knotwork.com/stellar/hz/ ( Explorer: https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/asset/HZ-GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5 )

For DVC on the Stellar platform see http://makemoney.knotwork.com/stellar/dvc/ ( Explorer: https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/asset/DVC-GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5 )

We are up. Not hard to run the Java Applet "Horizon NRS" locally from Windows 10 for me. So my node is up 80% of the time (guesstimate) - not forcing full scan from block 0 anymore so it runs pretty quickly from the Batch file on command prompt. I used to force scan everytime but I suppose its better to just get on the network and running as quick as I can.

Updated list of nodes:
Lfm.knotwork.com
Ufbsh.no-ip.org
73.8.240.113
160.20.146.23
82.223.216.54
85.165.109.217

I'm online every other day. Its slow to start up the server and my CPU does the best it can. There's going to be a return to this platform soon, right Mark? (@knotwork)

here is a "working" link - about Horizon

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/next-horizon/

Maybe - with a little bigger node count - it would be possible to change the "inactive" attribute on the Coinmarketcap ...
We have Stellar, as a possible Exchange for Horizon - with an Stellar Asset, but it is a possibility to buy / sell it.

Good. I don't got an offer from You, Sir, here, but I placed some on Stellar.
https://stellarterm.com/exchange/HZ-GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5/XLM-native

If somebody would like to own HZ, to try forging on HZ chain (Something working already, but ... And HZ very similar to NXT and other PoS coins, but you can own a BIG amount, if you wish and we can find a good rate for the amount you would like to own...) just get some HZ, and...
((I have ~5% of the whole marketcap. It seems to be a little too much at this time.))

You can take the offer on Stellar, and you can pm me here to exchange the coins to the coins on Horizon. Or simple pm me. Escrow not simple, because it is not more a popular coin, but we can exchange the amounts with small amounts - as i.e. coinfeine do it. We can use i.e. OByte ledger and the simple smart contract possibilities there, and you can send me GBYTE's against the transferred coins on the Horizon blockchain.

Maybe if we get a bigger community, we can restart Horizon better. (( This group, which is behind this 'Galactic Millieu' game, isn't too much trust-able, should I say. ))

I think a new node should have some millions of coins, if the admin would like to feel - it is forging the chain. Below 3 - 5 millions coin, I think, it is more harder to forge it and more harder to see a result.

What is Your offer, Sir?

I have created a STELLAR market for HZ/I0C I0C/HZ swaps:

https://interstellar.exchange/app/#/trade/./I0C/GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5/HZ/GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5

Price is 1.000000 HZ per ~0.06 I0C. Anyone selling I0C tokens for HZ tokens on STELLAR?
