Topic: [ANN] [MARKS] Incentivize Content Creators & Build a Reputation Value Framework (Read 32554 times)

Great to have you back akrmn2021 !

Hi all,

I have an update regarding a new project called Xmark (https://xmark.cc). It is a Firefox browser extension for marking your public X/Twitter posts to the BTM/MARKS blockchain, based on linkmark (explained in my previous post). More details on that page.

Chrome/Chromium extension is under review, but note that even though the Firefox extension was initially accepted (and signed) by Mozilla, they later retracted the listing saying it violates something:
"This content does not comply with Mozilla’s prohibition of deceptive, misleading, or fraudulent activity using its products".

I asked them to explain and 10 days later, still no reply. Anyway, be assured that this is not a scam and you can easily verify the tiny (javascript) source code of the extension, as well as the source code of the server, which you can run yourself. All links posted on the site.

If anyone wants to track development (or upgrade their node), please see my repo: https://github.com/bitmarkcc/bitmark
The website bitmark.io will soon be updated to include a link to this (see bitmark.co if that site doesn't work). The current project-bitmark repo is out of date and the guy who controls it (Melvin) is currently facing some personal problems from what I hear.

I have also faced many problems these past two years, so I was away from work for a long time. In case someone is wondering, my original account is onelineproof. Then I lost the password, changed to something else, lost the password again, and now this is my 3rd account. But I've been developing for Bitmark since 2017 (not a newb), and working with Bitcoin since 2011.

Encouraging to see new mining operations include Bitmark. Thank you MurkaPool.it

Do you plan on adding more of  Bitmark's eight merge-mineable algos ?

What is this nutty conduct? Enough? Enough of what? I will show u what is enough and what is not. U asked the dad to lay out their view on the abandon of active commitment from the thread founders which he could not do as he is not in the position to give u a heads up on the matter u brought up in ur outgoing inquiry purported to solicit from them the opinion on the knowledge unbeknownst to them, despite their telling u not to become quidnunc in ur way of addressing ur concern to prompt them for something they do not know especially in light of their limited capacity to speak on the topic into which they had no initiation nor exposure in spite of having spent long years riding the learning curve.

I have been working on a something called linkmark (linkmark.xyz). So far most of the marking has been of the form of timestamped hashes (like on timestamp.bitmark.one). I think more useful would be to allow the hashes to be associated with other object such as links and descriptions (descs).

The links allow people to know where to find the actual data that has the hash, and the descriptions help to find hashes or links that fit a sort of description that people are looking for. Like this you don't have to rely on a centralized search engine to find what you want and you can give reputation to the links and descriptions. The links may also include the hash of the SSL cert, thus this also gives reputation to the certificates themselves without relying on the certificate authorities that are hardcoded into web browsers.

Multisig txs are used to encode the data inside of the public keys (65 bytes for each object). So you can have a 1 of 3 multisig tx, where the first 2 public keys have 2 of the 3 objects (hash, link, or desc), and the 3rd key for spending.

Most of the text entries need to be in base38 format (alphanumeric chars plus underscore (_) and hyphen (-). Like that we can compress the data and save on block space.

So far it is mostly working with the rpc feature (bitmark-cli mark), but there is some issue that I am now debugging that occurs when you try to mark a desc+link. I want to mark bitcointalk.org together with a description, but the client is crashing (working on it now). But desc+hash and link+hash work fine as shown in the example on the web page.

I am currently dealing with some legal issues, so I don't have many hours to work right now, but would like to see if we can get some marking happening. I can explain more later, or just ask me here and I will explain.

Will post source code and binaries for Bitmark v0.9.7.4 release, minor update for the new TLS / SSL libraries in Ubuntu 18 & 20 and Debian 10.

Also, completing testing for Bitmark v0.9.7.6, a protocol update to allow faster initial blockchain download via "headers first, blocks in parallel" strategy. It is 100% compatible with prior versions in the v0.9.7.x series.

Price hit 30 sat and pressure of buyers is growing slowly.

Reminder that Bitmark's ticker symbol is preferentially MARKS, as the old ticker symbol, BTM is too often confused with another late-comer coin.

Here is an explorer which correctly uses the ticker MARKS
