Topic: [ANN] [PRX] [Masternode] [Staking] ProxyNode Network - The Rebirth (Read 1725 times)

Any news or development?

 

Remember previously I mentioned a change of jobs? Well, they're desperate for me to start with them and I'm desperate to get started too! So I managed to get my bosses to release me early and I'll be starting with them in 8 days instead of 6 weeks!

This means my 6 month probation starts quicker, my overall mood and enthusiasm will be lifted and I can continue to work on MASC and PRX again.

XSCR:
Wow, what a month our friends at Securus are having, they took the top spot on MASC and payments in XSCR are flooding in. MASC is grateful to receive funds as these are sellable (Directly to Aureum, with a guaranteed buyback price) and this should allow MASC to buy even more PRX from the exchanges.

MASC
Current account balance stands at 8.83 million PRX and has taken around 100 stake rewards in the past 6 hours. Of the 1300 daily staking rewards, MASC takes around 400 of these away from the hands of sellers and puts them in the MASC Reserve.

PRX
There are no buy walls on Crex and it pains me to see it, however Graviex is trading and affords everyone an opportunity to buy below 1 sat. The recent BTC pump has been nice, but altseason should be around the corner.
I did a bit of research into OneCoin (Massive scam coin from 2016) and it was 100% marketing and 0% existence. I'm going to reach out to some marketers to see what we can do, to positively promote PRX and avoid any legal issues. I do not like scams, but if we market what we have, it should produce results.

Wallet Update:
We will upgrade to a newer pivx wallet, when they release it.

If you know any marketers, please let me know. I will otherwise be reaching out to LinkedIn marketers to do the promotions.

Other than that, I hope you're all ok and if you're locked down, it's in a nice place. I've had my first Covid Vaccine and would encourage you all to do the same when you get the opportunity.

Best Wishes and Stay Healthy!

First proper post of the new year!

Hope @everyone is ok and doing well.

Life has been a bit crazy on my side and with Snow in Madrid....the world has gone truly mad.

MASC

Development of MASC has been held up by both dwindling numbers on the prx valuation and on my free time to commit to working on it. Gives me great pleasure to say that I have secured a new job (in a city centre) and after a 6 month probation period, will be the most secure job I've ever had in my life. This affords me less stress and more opportunities for working from home. Removing travel just one day a week afford me a good few hours to get things in order and work on MASC. This is currently impossible as I work in the middle of a rural area with little to no cell reception.

I won't be starting for another 6 weeks, but I don't give a damn about my current role anymore, so I've alleviated a lot of my personal stresses.
Clearer mind, happier times, able to focus.

I'm not going to make promises as I wouldn't want to fail any of you, but I will have more opportunity to refine MASC and the new look site.

Great news about BTC and LTC as I have some of both, but sadly I sold my Eth years ago at €200 a coin and it's now worth 1000. Hodl your prx folks.

Site improvements and additional features could bring investment and we could begin to climb out of the low position we are in.

If I can get more MASC payments, I can put the walls up on the exchanges to build a good solid base for our growth.

Let's make 2021 the year of growth that we all deserve (except those who dumped, they deserve to see us fly and cry about what could have been.

Coin's info: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-prx-masternode-staking-proxynode-network-the-rebirth-5117769

Enjoy your trading of the most safe, fast & reliable $CRYPTO exchange

@everyone Ann for 27/9/20

MASC:
The upgrade is pretty much complete. Got a few nodes that are causing grief but the original nodes are still online so no rewards lost.
Any nodes that have the status "Please Start Alias" will be DM'd to you.
Any nodes for major debtors will be cut off today.
The old servers will be cancelled today.
New node creation will be reopened today.

That's a lot of Todays!

Price:
Pricing went for a nice pump this week hitting 5 sats. big walls cut down and some movement in higher walls shrinking. In all, good progression!
This means the price for a node at Masc is lower than previous weeks at 97prx per day. Almost back to breaking even!
A little pump from BTC and our USD price will be enough to make MASC a self sustaining solution again.

Hope you're all doing well. The UK advice for Covid19 is "Hands clean, Face covered, Space yourself 2 meters apart".
This is the second wave, it wont be the last if people keep integrating. It's a time for solitude and contactless technology.
Viva Crypto!

Investor Interest:
There are currently some discussions with a group who want to adopt blockchain technology. PRX may not be the perfect solution for them, but the conversation channels are open and I'm happy to consult with them. Once their needs are established, the could become investors or they may just need to buy a heap of PRX to pay for MASC services. Only time will tell. More on this if it develops,

Just spotted that I've missed the Sunday ANN.
Sorry @everyone
On the bright side, operational update regarding MASC: Going to lease some new servers to replace the existing ones as they're not performing to the best of their abilities and it's causing me considerable hours of effort/late nights.

This will involve a migration of nodes over to the new servers but for the majority of nodes, there will be no changes required, a seemless transition.

Some nodes (Mainly IPv4) may have issues migrating but I will be reaching out to make people aware if this is the case.

I'm genuinely too tired to do this change today as I only had 4 hours sleep last night, but I'll be commissioning the servers this week and doing the migration at the weekend.

All the best folks,

Stock up on toilet paper, Lockdown 2 is almost here.

Sizzzzzzzzz

Weekly Ann : 13/09/2020

It's been a pretty good week for MASC with no errors reported, but sadly one of the new coins seems to have exited (Thanks to Bullau for catching this). There may be a takeover and the coin could keep running, but we will have to see what happens. Sadly it does mean that 60+ nodes have been taken down.

I figure this bit of information may be useful to you all going forward so here's the income for MASC this week:
22300 PRX /  $6.91 (US).

As you can see, MASC isn't making a ton of money and it's not absorbing PRX from the marketplace as much as we need it to. If you host masternodes with other providers and they're costing you cash/btc/ltc etc, please talk to me and we'll organize a move over.If you're not happy with the service, talk to me and we'll make it better.

In addition to this, PRX has 818 MNs online at the moment and I've today decided to ping them all for fun!
563 of these IPs don't reply to pings (Including the ipv6 nodes at MASC) and this got me thinking......
Perhaps the best way to stop phantoms is to enforce the listen switch on masternodes.

If a MN doesn't listen, we could then flag it as a phantom and then send out a "Ban" command. This would get the phantoms cut off and hopefully bring nodes back to MASC and promote paid MNs again (or take these nodes offline so that only people investing in PRX will get the rewards and benefits).

Feel free to discuss here but I think this will be a workable solution going forward, just need some preparation and announcements before it happens to give everyone a few days to migrate any phantoms to real nodes.

On top of that, I'm going to make a list of the wallet addresses of each of the IP's that don't ping and if needs be, we can ban these addresses.

Been an entereing day to theorize solutions!

Have a great weekend @everyone !

This year has been absolutely horrific for me personally and crypto in general.
We've also had the Covid pandemic making waves throughout every community.

I just wanted to keep this open and remind everyone that Proxynode is still here, still working and still trying to repair our price.
The community run coin has lost some members, which means some of our comms channels aren't up to date, there was no central owner of twitter/facebook etc so these do not receive updates often. The best place to see us is in Discord and we monitor the Telegram channels too.

@everyone Did you see the explorer change last week?
I added a label to clearly indicate the MASC account so that it was visible. I'm thinking if your account is in the top 100 on http://explorer.proxynode.network/richlist and you fancy being "slightly less anonymous", I can add a "Safe Hands" label to your address. This would show potential buyers which wallets are safely with hardcore, dedicated investors who will not be selling their bag in a heartbeat.
This could inspire people to buy in, if we can show 30% of the funds in safe hands, along with 24% locked in MNs.

Happy to hear your thoughts in #general

Sunday announcements have been forgotten about recently, so here's a Sunday one (UK Time: 3am)

PRX price is held strong with 2 sat wall and 3 sat wall. There won't be a break until we buy through the 3/4 sats and people stop selling their coins.

BTC/ETH/LTC/Everything has dumped this week. Brutal crypto week, but as most of us know, with big gains comes bit losses. This is ALWAYS temporary. I'm going to move some RL funds around and plan to buy some BTC to reinforce the walls.

I've spent like 8 hours trying to fix a server at masc and it's much calmer now, but this has made me think alot about "refreshing" the backend. Hopefully @everyone has experienced MASC and they're happy with the uptime provided and the tech support whenever there are any issues etc, but I think with a new interface and a "more improved" backend, everything will work better.

I've also got to reduce costs. Currently the domains are hosted on a mini vps (MASC and Proxynode) and it's costing me too much. Going to redirect name servers etc and have everything hosted more feasibly.

With more financial savings, I'll have more money to pump into BTC and then into PRX. I'm just lucky that the price is low so I can buy an even bigger bag

Hope you're all having a great weekend wherever you are and remember to wear your masks!

#WeBuildToSucceed

Heads up only (no tag).
I've updated the SSL certificate for MASCSolutions but will need to restart the webserver to do so. Also going to do some installs this weekend. This weekend may have a little downtime for MASC's frontend, but the backend will continue to host your nodes safely, without interruption. If you're wanting any new nodes, set them up prior to Saturday.

MASC LTC Customers - good news.

It took a while finding data for the price of PRX every day for the year to date and LTC for the year to date, then cross referencing the two, multiplying them by the rate at the time and the ltc amount, converting it to PRX and yeah, well, enough about all that.

ALL LTC deposits (Jan-Now) have been corrected in MASC to the true corrected value of PRX on that day.

Volumes may be different as I have the average price of LTC on the day you paid, not the spot price. Hopefully this will be enough that we can all agree that you're balance is acceptably accurate.

Sadly, the commission payments for PRX referrals is not salvagable. I cannot restore this.
To those who referred, all balances were zero'd to remove any debt that you had wrongly accrued due to the fault and you are welcome to rebuild your referral bonuses, however these cannot be recovered by me as I have no way to track it all.

It would appear, MASC is back to full strength again!
Time to take a backup :smile:

Thanks for your patience @everyone

Happy Sunday @everyone
Spent some time this week trying to get some alliances with other coins to see if we can help each other out etc. I managed to come across a marketing guy and had a good conversation. May have to do some service exchanges to get some help, but with a good marketing plan, we should be able to get a wider audience for PRX and get moving in the right direction.

BIG THANKS! MASC has acquired an additional 100+ nodes this week after I said it would be unsustainable to continue. The additional income from this will absolutely help keep things going and the inbound PRX should be enough to turn the price around.
Sadly, during the night, someone sold millions of PRX and burned through the 2 sat wall, leaving very little behind. It's definitely a struggle to help the community when no-one tells us why they're selling their stash. I agree, it's crypto and no-one has to justify their behaviour and the whole point of a decentralised currency is to "not be traced", but if the people who are selling at such low prices could let me know why, I'd really appreciate it. I will not share your names, just your reasons for exiting. With that info, PRX can work to recover and prevent others from leaving and hopefully regain you as an investor.

I appreciate movement is slow at the moment but PRX has not been forgotten about, it's still very much a priority and remember, selling your coins for these sat prices doesn't bring you a great return, but if you're invested in other projects, you can still use the PRX to host your nodes at MASC, even if you don't have a PRX node running! You can stake with PRX and use the gains to pay your bill for running any other MN coin hosted at MASC. This is how we get PRX out of circulation and make the price climb. You can also buy $1's worth of PRX at the exchanges and help out. Or $10

Hope you all had/have a great weekend. I've been back to the new look site today and still have lots to do there.
#WeBuild2Succeed

Dear @everyone

Someone tried to inject some SQL code into the MASC databases. They failed, but they were able to wipe all the transactions from the table from the beginning of time. This causes a pretty big issue for the billing side of things and I've had to remove the point of exploit which was "Paying the old way". There is no plan to return this feature at this time. If you use the old way, please go to the new way and perform a test payment of 50 prx to ensure your account is credited with the funds before sending "large amounts".

I fired my PC up yesterday ready to do some MASC and PRX maintenance. Got taken away to do "1 thing" and I finished it today at 2pm haha. Everytime I try to put time aside for building/fixing, something gets in the way and then I see the price has circled 2/3 sats for weeks.

Why is the price low? Well, the MASC model was built to ensure our survival as a coin, here's where the biggest fault lies in my opinion.
The price per node should be 122 prx per node per day. Nodes were generating 40 prx per day.......node owners should have been "forced" to buy more PRX to pay their bill and this in turn raises the sat price, making the payments lower at MASC. The reduction in rate has caused this to become completely untenable.

The node price at MASC will increase today, to one dollar per month. If this is unacceptable for you to continue hosting your nodes with MASC, I understand and accept. MASC cannot continue to operate at these losses and sustain the hodl of coins, MASC has not sold coins but it is now functioning at a significant loss and unsustainable for the future. Servers will be discontinued as the capacity is much greater than the demand and the service will be fine-tuned to prevent mass setups. Anyone wishing to support MASC during this time, please credit your account using the LTC method. Anyone wishing to support Proxynode, topup with PRX.

Also:
Along with the SQL issue, I now have to try and recover the DB's values and correct everyone's balances which is a mammoth task to complete and I have to do all of this on my wife's birthday, she's less than impressed :smile:  I'm not letting PRX go down without a fight and not all customers have PRX nodes. Many will buy the coins in and that will increase our sats & Popularity. The old model wasn't working to increase our sat count, but it didn't let us fall this far either.

Happy August @everyone

I'd love to give you good news, but right now, I'm just doing all I can to keep everything going when something breaks. New job is ten hours a day including travel, then eating, family duties and getting ready for the day after has absolutely wiped out every hour of every day.

The weekend is my one chance, but of course, that's when the family wants to "do stuff" and of course, that means I have to be there. This weekend we saw both sides of the family as the UK approaches a second lockdown. It's also my daughter's birthday today so have had to plan the celebration and help make her day awesome.

In the background there have been conversations around beginning a partnership with Vault, performing a swap and locking coins in Cryo. At this time, it's in the "idea" phase and until we work out some sort of plan around how to achieve what we need to, it won't become an official presentation. Didn't want you to think I'd forgotten about you all, but this is an idea brought to me by community members and I've encouraged them to gather more info. It's everyone's community and all ideas will be considered.

Hope you're all well and I'll try to be more active. Doesn't help that the internet at work is terrible and there's no mobile data signal. I don't even have phone reception for 90% of the day.

Take Care
Siz

 MASC issue.

Sadly, there seems to have been a fault on MASC on July 10th which has meant everyone has been credited with hundreds of thousands of free PRX that didn't actually exist.

I've therefore deleted all payments during that period and have gone through the painful task of validating all legitimate payments made, manually.

Sorry for any confusion but you may need to check your balance tomorrow as you could find yourself in a deficit.

I will also kill all nodes on accounts with negative balances this weekend.

Good afternoon everyone

I won't lie, this weekend has been maintenance, not progress, so this update may be uninspiring to many.

The bootstrap server at MASC has been doing it's thing, closing wallets, performing a backup and then it should reopen the wallet. This has failed for multiple wallets, but not all. Plenty of investigation later and there was no cause. The only solution was to try and add delays. These also didn't help as hoped. New script written to check if they were online or offline and attempt to wake them back up. This worked for one, but not for others. It's also 9pm here and I've not really had enough time to myself to get onto discord this weekend.

Short summary, MASC is currently running 650 nodes, most are PRX followed by Securus. There's an agreement in place for a new coin to use MASC as their chosen partner but that project is taking time to get launched etc.
MASC is also in discussions about hosting multiple block explorers for a community. Heap of work to get them all online, but it should be worth it when the time comes. It should also keep MASC afloat during this bitcoin stagnation.

Kids have broken up for "summer holiday" here, and I expect that's a global thing, so best wishes to your kids/grandkids/brothers and sisters for their vacation. It's a strange time where kids have been off for so long already that they haven't got a clue what to do with themselves anyway.....so this is a very trying time for parents.

Hope you all stay well and healthy
Siz

What a great day to be doing an Announcement

@everyone WHAT A 24 HOURS IT HAS BEEN!!!!

Proxynode appears to have attracted some well funded investors who have bought in and caused some phenomenal growth in just a short period of time.

We hit 20 sats. Remember those days? Well, we need buywalls and we need them asap. The http://proxynode.network/ main page video demonstrates (in a fun way) how building a tower with no support, falls hard. We must fortify our investments by building prevention. 13 sat wall, 15 sat wall, 17 sat wall. If you can sell some other coins to build the walls without negatively affecting other projects, this would be an ideal way to recycle coins in crypto and make PRX as stable as possible.

It was a solid swing in the right direction. MASC node hosting costs dropped from 74 prx to 27 prx due to this activity. The more we pump, the cheaper it gets!

Tech updates:
MASC is building dip3 node automated setup for coins.
Lots of research about pivx/phantoms and if there is any solution away from paying for a wallet conversion.
Functions added to 24Sizzle(Discord Bot): using ! as the trigger:
!price will give you the price in btc/gbp/eur/rub and btc.
!masc gives you the daily rate for node hosting at MASC per node. (Thanks to @Clapidos for this idea).

A final reminder:
If we do not build walls, we fall back down. BUILD

#WeBuildToSucceed

Happy weekend to @everyone!
Announcemnt for Firday the 20th Dec.
**MASC work**
Many little improvements have been added to the system, including a self healing bot that detects any badly made nodes and rebuilds them. Currently automating the github download of all wallets' most recent versions. It's going well! This will enable MASC to update to the latest wallet without constantly having to be told "Hey, X has updated their wallet and my nodes are offline". Every automation and efficiency allows more time to invest in adding new coins that are then self-managed/self updated and self repaired.

**PRX Wallet**
Some improvements are going to be coming to PRX's wallet. Dev work is underway to get this updated and will be released probably in the new year. Not many visual changes in the QT wallet, but some better error handling.

**Trivia Quiz**
Big shout out to Lobashka for winning the top prize at Trivia : 2500 PRX credit at MASC. Honourable mentions go to MrBruut, Massague and particularly Katarina for answering "The most ancient computer in the world" with "Antikythera Mechanism". Trivia is great as it taught me something I never knew Hope to see you guys on the next round, Sunday at 15:00 GMT seems to be the new time for it.

@Katarina#5147 also deserves a huge thank you for her animation skills! Type !snow to check it out!

**MASC Fees**
Due to a drop in MN count, Rewards are now every 19 hours occasionally, this will mean you get 160 prx from a node within one billing cycle. Current daily price is 119 prx (at the time of checking) and there are still MANY debtors at MASC partly due to the email issue and partly due to people not setting up new nodes (which would help them see their balance). I'm going to reach out 1 more time to those in debt and if there is no reply, I will be disabling nodes which will increase the coins for those who do pay.

Also, my car broke so I'm spending today fixing it
#MerryChristmas
#WeBuildToSucceed

Announcement of Friday the 13th Dec.
**Web Dev:**
Sadly, the person who was supposed to redesign the MASC website spent his time redesigning the logo (which was never requested). Web dev has then asked to be paid for his logo (after I said "I don't want any of these logos, happy with the existing one") before he will work on the site......which is just stupid. You don't take your car to be resprayed and then pay them to change the badge on the front of the car, without agreement.

Will work out a better way forward.
-----
**Exchange Lockdown**
I reached out to CB to ask what would be done with the unclaimed PRX on their system (If they would burn it for example). They said "our liquidators will decide" what to do......

I asked Lobashka to track the volume. Almost 3 mill.
Withdrawals have happened so this keeps lowering but last check, it was still over 2m.

If that dumps, we and many others coins, are at 0 sat.
**We estimate 130 BTC's worth of unclaimed coins on CB at the time of writing.**

How can we prevent CB from dumping all PRX on the other exchanges? Well, Lobashka said "ask them to freeze deposits". So it is all organised. Crex and Graviex will lock deposits as soon as we announce that we've requested it. They are all prepared.

We are now announcing that as of tomorrow (Saturday 14th December), Deposits at BiH, Crex and Graviex are suspended. There is no timeframe on this as we need to use this period to observe the behaviour of CB and see what type of impact they are going to have. How they handle other coins, and whether they start dumping coins individually and cause chaos. You can still trade & withdraw Prx.

**Trivia quiz**
Trivia has been a great success and we are doing it weekly however this is reliant on TipCat being alive at the time of the contest. It's run by Clapidos and when TipCat is online, be sure to !register before the trivia.
DateTime: Sunday 15/Dec/2019 GMT 15:00

Hope you all have a great weekend and, as always,
#WeBuildToSucceed!!!

Announcement for the Week of December 5th (#LateAgain)
@everyone
Siz being on the road on a Monday-Thursday is affecting the weekly announcements and I find us apologising week on week. Instead of this, we will now have Friday announcements going forward. With the first being.........Friday the 13th #Superstitious?

State of the EcoSystem:
- CB Is going down - Get your funds OUT ASAP! They could sell all the PRX when they shut down, so get your money asap or they might tank us!.
- Crex is also hit with KYC regulation and enforcing a ban to the UK/US/Canada/Somewhere else too. Crypto Crackdown is hitting us hard but let's be brutally honest here. We only object to KYC because the websites are shady as hell. No-one complains about doing KYC for Coinbase / Binance because we're all acting within the law.
-Graviex : Weak support levels/sell points etc, shifting from CB to Graviex is going to be beneficial and make it much more useful. Also no KYC, based in Moscow so should be safe to trade there for as long as we need to.

So what's been happening this week?
Snode decided to shutdown and said they could be looking to sell. On behalf of MASC, I approached them for pricing. They went on to discuss all the packages available which included everything, SND coin, explorer, website, dashboard, api, bots etc.
Sadly, they took forever coming back to me with actual prices.
When they did, they were VERY unrealistic and not financially viable. It is with regret that we will not be buying Snode's pretty interface.

Without going into too much detail, their top tier offering is equal to 96,997,293 PRX.

Cookie:
Cookie has almost finished his business trip and will be back to his usual activity levels over the next couple of weeks (Baring Christmas).
#WelcomeBack

In other news,
- Today I had a phone call with an old Sales Director that I used to work with. He's not familiar with the service so he's going to need a few days to process the info, do some research and come back to me. If I can bag him, he could really help MASC launch a second attack and try to take a bigger share of the market.
- I have also contracted in a web developer via a friend of a friend. He's a proper paid web dev and took a look at snodes website, and at MASC and said "Yeah, I can do something with this". This is literally hot off the press and I only spoke with him 4/5 hours ago.
His availability is not 24/7 so, be patient! Hopefully we will have a new look MASC front end soon. If he does a good job, the members area will be worked on. If both are good, maybe i'll get him to revamp proxynode.network too

#WeBuildToSucceed!

Announcement for the Week of November 29th (Sorry it's a day late).

From the Team:
We are pleased to say that the PRX lottery, organised by Clapidos was a great success. We warmly congratulate Hap for winning the lottery this time and hope he will enjoy his 50K PRX (and uses it wisely!).

Given the encouraging response to the PRX lottery, Clapidos is working to present you with another game called "Trivia". Watch this space for further updates and information (we are!). Word on the street is that the game will be launched this Sunday at 17:00 GMT!

Snode will be shutting down there services in a week or so. Please ensure you withdraw any coins you have to ensure you do not lose any!

Gin has also decided to close it's doors so the same applies there.

MASC has the option to migrate nodes, so anything that is hosted on MASC can be brought over without losing rewards.

Siz availability for the week:
Siz is at the (Proxynode) HQ from Thursday - Monday. Out of town on Monday night - Thursday morning. Limited activity from Siz during this time.

Onwards we go!

#WeBuildToSucceed!

Dear @everyone


Announcement for the Week of November 20th

From the Team:
You will have noticed that we did not post an announcement last week. Wires got crossed, folk dropped offline. Our apologies.

We have completed the transition to a 50K PRX collateral requirement. Also, rewards have halved (80 per MN per block, staking: 20 PRX /block). At the time of writing, 1500 nodes are up and running. "First" rewards take about 3.2 days to materialise with reoccurring rewards every 1.2 days.

We are pleased to see that MASC hosts 1,000 of all PRX masternodes, a testament to the excellent and affordable services offered to the community. The PRX team will continue to work with MASC to bring more coins to the platform to incentivise PRX ownership.

State of the ecosystem:
With the lower block rewards, 130K PRX is produced every day. This equates to a supply increase of about  24M PRX over the next six months. We do not know how this will impact price growth. What we can do, however, is to bring solutions that will spur growth and increase PRX demand. Our work towards possible solutions, along with some bottlenecks, are listed below.
@everyone continued

Possible Solutions:
We are heavily investigating what options MASC can host for PRX payment and build a structure around that. Masternode collaterals and hosting fees are useful for keeping PRX away from the markets, but we need more services (use cases) to ensure healthy growth in the future.

KYC:
Crex has blocked UK IP-addresses connecting to their site. KYC is a serious issue that will not go away but yet, impedes progress. The net closes more and more each day. To protect itself has just banned the UK from accessing their site, irrespective of customer KYC compliance. The ban took immediate effect without warning and serves as a reminder that this could happen to anyone. Be cautious and never keep (too many) coins on an exchange.

MASC:
We will add new coins! We will offer our services to MCPC and Jackpot 777 in due course. As always, fees will be due in PRX. Birake has had some issues on our platform. New bootstrap methodologies have resolved most issues. Currently, we are struggling to get the connections we need (much like PRX had after the last wallet swap). We anticipate that this problem is soon resolved.

Siz availability:
For the next five weeks, Siz will be at (Proxynode) HQ from Thursday - Monday. He is Out of town on Monday night until Thursday morning. There will be Limited Sizzle-on-PRX action during this time.

TipCat-bot:
A few good ideas (e.g. auto-rain on Active Discord members) are floating around at the moment with regards to the TipCat. We require a substantial collaborative effort to flesh these ideas out (and test implementations). It may take a little while, but keep your eyes open for Discord Contests/Lotteries that may appear. Transparency and accountability are critical to resolving possible disputes. We ask for patience to ensure fairness.

Onwards we go!
#WeBuildToSucceed!

Last ANN of 24k collateral.

The PRX team would like to take this opportunity to thank @everyone who has invested. Everyone who stood by us when we were falling. Prior to the take over, prior to the exploit, prior to everything. It's been a truly troubled journey with a trouble-free recent history.

Outlook:
So 24k is almost exhausted and next week's ann will be fully focussed on 50k so this is really the only time we can explain the future that we see happening.
The current make up of the sell walls on crex, is 12 nodes available (at 50k per node) once they're clear.......there is only 2 nodes available before 25k (Sizzle's Crex marker).
2 nodes is two new investors......After that, to buy two nodes........you have to go to 300 SATS!

I mean, That's a pretty decent jump and people will put sales in between that, but wouldn't it be amazing :wink:

Donation Update!
We got 0.027 btc and 3.56 LTC. Combined they're roughly the right amount, but I still have to exchange the LTC and cover the fees. A great achievement by everyone involved.

Now, Whilst we have pretty much reached our goal, if you 'were going to' donate but haven't yet donated, please continue to do so. The accounts are proxynode accounts and I do not tamper with them in between funding rounds. This can help to pay for wallet improvements where necessary and also spend a little on marketing.

That being said, Sizzle has been out and about and now spends 2 days a week out-of-town which makes support on those days quite difficult however financial needs leave me with little choice. When BTC moons and PRX is worth 10k sats, I won't need to work haha.

Best Wishes to all and sorry for the delay. Huitemae asked me for any special words for the ANN and I said i'd already written most of it......but forgot to press enter and wasn't able to remote to my PC. ANYWAY! Here's the ann. Next week : 50K ann!!!

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 16TH:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

From the PRX Team
Prepare for 50k collat!
Masternode Count: 2535
508.88 hours until block 500000
Predicted date of 500000: 2019-11-06 19:21:14 (GMT)
Crex Price: 0.00000008

We expect demand to increase to keep as many masternodes going as possible which should hopefully involve the exchanges getting all their supply bought up! If this does not happen, the masternodes half at the same time as the rewards, so the output of coins will be the same (Due to reward frequency being doubled).
Mathematically, we are in a really good position going forward. Then we have a period of 6 months without any changes and can really drive the project during this time.

Exchanges:
Graviex has received overwhelming support. We will begin the listing process and then start to raise the GIO required to list. If you have some GIO and would like to contribute this we will organise a donation address in the near future.

Sizzle:
Sizzle has secured a proper position. This will ease the financial burdens he faces and it will mean he is working 8-9 hours per day. This will afford him weekends and "after hours" to work on Proxynode as well as regular hours of availability for scheduled maintenance etc. He also won't be exhausted when he gets home! All in all, this is a very positive move.

MASC:
Been a problematic week with one of the key servers having issues, causing the bootstrap to be faulty, suspension of new nodes etc. We believe these are resolved and that the Proxynode bootstrap will be backed up correctly tonight.

Hope you all have a very prosperous weekend and don't forget, when bitcoin recovers, PRX recovers it's fiat value. If we can get back out of the sub-10-sat window, we're going to get the benefits of the upcoming bitcoin revival and get our PRX gains multiplied!

Peace and love to all!

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 25TH:

Dear @everyone

Please accept my sincerest apologies. Recent weeks have been quite chaotic and the announcements have not been perfect. Even today's announcement is a day late so for that I am sorry.

MASC: Upgrade hit some stumbling blocks but these have been resolved and it's back in full swing now. 2 servers of the entire estate are complete.
Once the upgrade is complete there will remain to be no visible improvement for customers, this is all backend efficiencies and nothing front-end facing.

PRX: From what I see, the past 90 days of PRX are strongest of any Cryptocurrency I have seen during the BTC pump and dump activity. We are not rich yet, we are not on the moon yet, but we show significant stability in a turbulent market place. Imagine what would happen if we really did some marketing on Proxynode and got some extra whales buying up the supply! Whilst this is a nice pipe dream, we don't want whales yet. Buying now would be very beneficial to whales and people with big wallets, we want to look after those who have been with us through the hard times.

I've attached the chart that I've had saved as a screenshot for a week and it paints an amazing picture for this coin and most importantly, it's community. When exploiters took our price down hard and fast, the community rebuilt it within hours. I'm honoured to be serving you guys and gals who reset the price back to it's true value.

YOU ARE AMAZING! WELL DONE TO ALL!!! :clap: :clap:

After the MASC improvements are complete, I hope to be able to re-assess the capacity needs for it, reduce expenditure and see if I can reinvest the savings into either ipv4 nodes or other services that will attract more investment into PRX.

Enjoy the rest of the week, have great weekends and here's the amazing chart, courtesy of Masternodes .online

My wallet have wrong chain,
Could you give adress "right" nodes?

I'm not clear on which "company" you are referring to, but Proxynode is a community driven coin and when funds are needed, the community is asked to contribute.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 11TH:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

The PRX Team
We are delighted to inform you of our latest video publication about PRX project and price growth. This informative video explains (through a gaming analogy) the mechanisms of price action and how it interacts with investor mindsets. The video link: https://youtu.be/ewdnIeuIgnc.
We encourage you all to have a look, leave comments and of course, spread the word about PRX.

We are delighted to announce that the PRX forum is now live!! Please feel free to sign up at http://forum.proxynode.network/ and join the discussions surrounding our exciting project and new developments. We would like to give a big thanks to Senaia for the hard work.  Setting up the forumsand groups is a massive undertaking. Thank you!!

MASC
Servers at MASC are running at full speed and smoothly. We continue to explore the addition of other coins/Masternodes to our services along with continuous efforts towards service improvements.

News from @Sizzlephizzle#0376
Sizzle is happy to announce that he has recently managed to obtain a regular job. We acknowledge that this will have an impact on availability to the PRX community and MASC. Sizzle will remain fully dedicated to the project in his role as captain and champion. The PRX team is fully committed to step in and help address community concerns when they arise in his absence. Importantly, a regular and secure source of income means that Sizzle can stop selling PRX to get his daily dose of Red Bull energy drinks.

We hope you will enjoy the rest of your week.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF AUGUST 21st:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly Announcement.

Did you know?
We have a PRX/USDT trading pair on Coin Bridge? And how would you like being able to buy PRX with ETH on the exchanges? Well, Lobashka noticed these and other tranding pairs while Siz was sleeping behind the wheel. The following trading pairs are available on CB: PRX/BTC, PRX/LTC, PRX/ETH, PRX/USDT, PRX/RVN and PRX/BTS. Lots of options available through CB (If you can get access to it). Get this PRX while you still can!!

MASC Update:
We are pleased to announce that MASC will enable its customers to run Zenzo, Phore and Phonecoin Master Nodes. As usual, all fees will be charged in PRX. This now takes the number of hosted projects to 17.

PRX Wallet Update Release:
As you may know, we have been working on an updated version of the PRX wallet (V2.1). With the testing of the new version nearly complete, we will coordinate the release with the upcoming reward change which is due to take place at block 400,000.

Finally, the PRX team would like to take a moment and wish our captain @Sizzlephizzle#0376 a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! All the best wishes from the team. Hurrah!!!

We hope you will have a fantastic week!

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF AUGUST 7TH:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

Support MASC: Buy a bundle and hold!
As you may know, MASC is solely funded for its services by the PRX revenue it generates with its services. To ensure both sustainability and PRX price stability, MASC now offers PRX bundles that can be purchased directly with LTC, ETH, XRP or BTC. Sales of PRX through this mechanism will prevent major PRX dumps on the market while generating revenue that can be re-invested in MASC (and pay its bills). For this reason, please consider supporting MASC by buying bundles. If interested, we urge you to contact @Sizzlephizzle#0376 for further details (and good deals!!).

Collaboration time: PRX for VPS at Cryptovps.online
We are delighted to announce that our friends at https://cryptovps.online/ have added PRX as a payment method! You can now setup a range of VPS servers with an ipv4 address and pay in PRX! This newly established service is a significant partnership for PRX and accelerates the achievement of our project.

@Sizzlephizzle#0376:  "I've set one up myself to test. After you pay the entire amount due in 1 payment to the wallet address on your invoice, setup is triggered. After about an hour you get your IP address. I have tested their service, and after setup, the VPS performs quite well". As this is a new service, we are keen to hear about your experience and feedback. This is an external service and support requests should go to peg-dev in our discord.

Given the regulatory landscape surrounding VPS services in the UK, the team believes that the current solution is best suited to avoid legal problems. With this new collaboration, we will seek to provide a seamless and robust VPS service.

Finally, we congratulate Lobashka with promotion to Ambassador for their time and effort, both behind the scenes and in public conversations."

We hope you will have a fantastic week!

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF JULY 31ST:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

Huitemae is on vacay so that means it's a Sizzle Special!

This week has been mega busy, what with MASC filling to max capacity and all, but that's now solved. For a full breakdown of what occured, please see the Discord #updates channel.
This has left me (Siz) exhausted and I can't recover my sleep pattern so i've pulled an all nighter to try and reset myself. That means I am completely useless to PRX/MASC and my family today as I'm absolutely shattered and it's 11am local time.

We've seen impressive work by the community to start the coin price recovery. Great effort from all involved. Those strong hands are what raises the coin price. If you're happy to sell for 5 sats now, HODL and sell half the amount for twice the price when we get to 10 sats. Every exchange sell hinders us, every purchase helps us.

The future of Proxynode and MASC is going to have a bit of a newer spin as I will be doing some how-to videos so that people can get a visual walk through of the processes. I realised the time I spend supporting people with typing is really affecting the time for progression so steps will be taken to make this more efficient.

I'm inspired to work harder than ever on the project, but alas, I am in need of some rest. I will return reinvigorated and revitalised tomorrow, maybe Friday.

Thanks again to all for your support, kind words and investments.

Best Wishes
Sizzle

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF JULY 24TH:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

ProxyNode Whitepaper:
@Sizzlephizzle#0376 has started his work on the ProxyNode Whitepaper, aided by @Huitemae. It will set out the strategic direction of PRX, the scope of its development work with MASC as well as its longer-term development goals and vision. It's a mammoth task but it will get done in the coming weeks.

MASC Services:
We are pleased to announce that new coins on MASC are ready for nodes. We will host MNs for the well-established GIN coin project as well as Bitgreen and the all new MNPRO v2. In addition to established projects, MASC is in discussion with a new project called DAPS. The DAPS project is set to launch towards the end of Q3 and MASC is considered a reputable MN provider under their consideration.

We alert all MNPRO holders a coin swap is taking place from v1 to v2 over 8 days. We urge customers to please act quickly. For information, please contact MNPRO.

MASC Improvements:
Over the past week, MASC has been working to optimise the infrastructure, underpinning its hosting service. As part of the work, the following changes have been made:
    - Server 7 is cancelled pending termination.
    - Server 8 has been deemed unfit for service.  We will migrate Nodes and decommission the server in due course.
    - MASC has ensured that capacity will not be affected. Space for new nodes will remain available, minimising the impact to customers

Work continues on the improvement of the MASC website with a particular focus on the User Interface. The changes to the UI are currently being tested and benchmarked to ensure the highest possible standard. We will launch the revamped UI upon completion of this work. MASC customers will find that the new UI is better streamlined, more interactive and easier on the eye.

Have a fantastic week!

Mind the heatwaves and stay hydrated!

#WeBuildToSucceed

The PRX Team

Thanks for the feedback thin.

I'll get it all updated.

Regarding github, we have a really good developer who works on multiple wallets and he did one big re-vamp of the wallet. Currently, we've not found any reason to tamper with it as it's working great. We witness many coins releasing update after update that do nothing for anyone, just to show they are active and we genuinely don't see the point in compromising the integrity of the wallet without a good reason.

Happy to discuss further if you fancy jumping into the telegram or discord channels.

Just looked through the recent changes in github and see that readme was updated with important changes, but code is not. Also readme and this announcement now have different info about max supply, block time and number of confirmations. I guess better have it consistent everywhere, also keeping code in sync with info provided.

Dear all,

Welcome to your weekend announcement for PRX.

As You know, we had a reward change at block 350,000 taking place this week. This meant that rewards dropped from 320 to 240 PRX per block for master nodes whereas staking rewards were reduced to 60 PRX per block. In addition, block reward frequency went also down along with this change.

This means that overall, sigificantly less PRX is being produced on each given day, which will help reduce PRX supply on the market. The PRX team feels that in the long run, This reward change will lead to a price increase. The development and implementation of use cases will undoubtedly lead to a rise in demand and consequently, PRX increases.

In other words, now is the time to get on to the PRX train by snapping up more coins, Hold them hard and wait for the ProxyNode project to develop and reach its full potential.

We are also closely monitoring other coins who are going through changes to see if any of their approaches provide them with favourable results. Rather than 'try something' only to ruin the coin. A great example is that Siz really wanted an LTC pair on the exchanges but when watching repme change from BTC only, to add an ETH pair, the price tanked from 1 sat to 2 gwei. This caused significant damage to the community and therefore we will only look at BTC pairs going forward. 1 sat is better than 0 sat.
Supply burning and swap ratio are currently being observed and we do not think this will result in success for them, but we wait and watch. Don't worry - no decision will be made without consulting the community in discord and telegram.

We Hope you have a great weekend.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF JUNE 26TH:
 
Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

BTC funds raised towards relisting of our PRX page on MNonline
We are pleased to announce that after our recent call for support, the community has stepped up and donated funds. We reached our target in record time. We want to give our big thanks to our Donors. We have already paid masternode.online and agreed to provide them with a marketing banner. Our banner will ensure that MNO visitors will get to see PRX and hopefully attract new investors from all over the world to our project.

MASC development update
MASC has been super busy but made good progress in multiple areas. We have implemented a number of new (design) features that will drastically enhance the user experience at MASC. A summary below:

1) Users that are starting a new MN will soon have the option to provide their txid (the transaction specifying the collateral transfer to your dedicated wallet). This option will appear after clicking to on a coin icon to add a new node.
2) We have created a new and more comprehensive dynamic database that will populate our website with statistics (ROI, reward, nr of hosted nodes etc) for each MN coin available at MASC. These details will be part of the all-new node layout at the bottom.
3) We have updated the Links to direct you to new pages at MASC
4) We have devised a new MN setup procedure that is running in the background. Setting up a MN for any of our available coins is now easier than it was ever before.
5) A new look front page. The new interface is more intuitive and better guides users to the three primary services (Masternodes, Blockexplorers and VPN) MASC intends to offer.
MASC HACK UPDATE:
After much investigation, we identified the root cause of our compromised server. Production servers at MASC have a setup script that builds them identically to its siblings (albeit, improved by the time the next server needs provisioning). The test server we used first to trial our VPN service was hacked during a botnet attack. At the time of setup, the usual (Production) security measures were not implemented, rendering the server susceptible to attacks. We have now implemented preventative measures in place to repel future attacks (and no, that's not an invitation to attack our servers).

While we are sure that our VPN service did not cause the problem, the attack did prompt us to research on liability issues in the context of VPN service provision. Our preliminary conclusion is that we must separate VPN services from the MASC catalogue for liability reasons. Work continues towards the establishment of the VPN service as well as a sensible operations platform.

New coins at MASC:
You can now start MNs at MASC for the following coins: Altbet, MNPro and PAWS. These coins will supplement a growing list of coins already available at MASC (PRX, Repme, P2PCoin, MARCoin, Adnode and SafeInsure). Advertise our service as far and as wide as you can (all fees paid in PRX only).

Discord Invite competition
Repme (a sponsored node on MASC) are having a Discord Invite competition. Sizzle is participating and would really like to win the competition, to the benefit of PRX. We therefore ask you to join this channel through this link: https://discord.gg/aVWXK6K. Repme prize money (20 million) will be sold and proceeds used to the benefit of the PRX project. Twenty million Repme is worth almost 100k PRX (the typical sell wall these days). Please support by joining the channel (and support our message). #WeBuildToSucceed

We hope you will enjoy the rest of your week.

The PRX Team

Crazy, you took over the project and you have not even 0.05 BTC for the MNO update? MNO is charging everyone who is changing the collateral or do swaps!

How you will fifnace your project in the future? The cumminty members begging again?

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE WEEK OF JUNE 16TH:

Dear all,

Please find below your weekly announcement.

As you know, MasterNodes.Online (MNO) placed us in maintenance recently due to the change in MN collateral included in the recent update. We engaged with MNOnline to bring our MN page back online. During our discussions, MNOnline have indicated that they will have to charge us 0.05 btc for the update. Other services have not charged us for this change; however, masternodes.online is where many first hear of PRX and monitor our nodes. Proxynode needs your help in funding this. We don't want to sell 0.05 BTC's worth of PRX on the market as this equates to around a million. That would affect price negatively, something which none of us desires.

Can you spare $20 to help proxynode?
If 100 people spared 0.0005 BTC ($4.60) or if 20 people donated 0.0025 ($23) we'd be back alive and kicking in no time. If you wish to donate, please send any BTC to our fundraiser wallet (18aN9Vur7ygNYW2gyzFrodj4YhSb6jRnJC), LTC to LZsmMVwi7E8V6bbwfiEBDMmxuf8scqw1dT or ETH to 0x1Ae7b3a19D189A502F57c0a5496dB7970D29d966. If you wish to donate in another currency, please contact @Sizzlephizzle#0376.

As you know, we have updated the reward bandings and collateral in the new wallet. When the collateral increase at block 500k, the circulating coin supply should dry up. The implemented changes are meant to curb the coins' original distribution that has caused an over-supply. Keeping this pattern would have killed the coin. We are moving to break that cycle and turn the coin around.

Marketing
To all Crex users out there - Keep your eye out on the faucet function. Sizzle's eagle eyes spotted the faucet button and decided to put some of his PRX up for an airdrop. This marketing experiment may attract new investors to our project. #NewMoney. We're pleased to see the CB Sellwall disappearing! Good work everyone!

We hope you will enjoy the rest of your week.

CRITICAL ISSUE ANNOUNCEMENT:

Dear all,

Last night we were the victims of a fake-stake/double spend attack on the proxynode blockchain and today we identified a series of chainsplits. Because of this, CryptoBridge and Crex have locked down wallets and disabled deposits and withdrawals. We will work with them to restore functionality as soon as we have resolved all issues.

To protect your PRX holdings, please do the following:

- Please Backup Your wallet.dat files Now! Make sure to have wallet backed up on your computer and ideally, to a backup (USB) memory stick.

-  Ensure that your wallet is on the correct chain by following this procedure:

0- Check if your blocks match. To do this, look at the block count at http://explorer.proxynode.network/api/getblockcount and make sure that your wallet has the same block count value. If so, you are on the correct chain and no further action is needed. If the value is not right, your wallet is likely to be on the wrong chain. To remedy this:

1- Delete the files I have numbered in the picture:

2- Download the bootstrap from either of these sources: http://sync.proxynode.network/prx.zip (may be slow) or
https://github.com/ProxyNode/proxynode/releases/download/v2.0.0/prx.master.chain.6jun2019.zip. If using the github link, you will need to navigate into nodes/prxbkp where the files and folders are located.

3- Unzip the contents of the Zip file into the folder where you deleted files were.

4- After these files have copied over, restart your wallet. Your wallet should now be on the correct chain and continue to add blocks, as shown in the explorer.

Apologies for not posting here, but we've been very busy!

We have fought back against the attacks on our network with a New wallet launch! We have released V2.0.0 of proxynode. Please ensure you upgrade via github or through http://proxynode.network.

The full announcement is massive. Head to http://proxynode.network/news.html for the full story

I will now post today's announcement.

Looking forward to the announcement!!!!!

MidWeek update. May 29th, 2019

Ok. We have two pieces of very good news and then a little more good news (although some may say it is bad news).

The good news is, we have a MAJOR announcement. It's so big, you can almost call it obese. It's super high in calories. Very tasty, but please do some exercise after reading it. Reading the entire announcement will already make you break a sweat ! The announcement will be published this coming weekend.

The other piece of news (good or bad, whatever you think), is that the major announcement is so big, that it exceeds the discord character limit (450% of the character limit). We will publish the full announcement on bitcointalk as well as proxynode.network. This weekend, we will provide links taking you to the complete text. Normally, we like to keep our communications short and sweet, but in the spirit of Full Disclosure and Transparency, we had to resort to this approach.

Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Sburns who has just found out he is going to be a Dad again! I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say Congratulations to him and his growing family.

Have a happy Wednesday (#WeDo)

Announcement for the week of May 12th

Welcome to the weekly announcement for Proxynode!

As you will all know, last week saw the increase in PRX collateral from 12k to 24k coins. As we expected, this led to drastic changes to the number of MNs online and therefore the network. Due to the hard work of many community members (helping out in Discord), the super fast deployment of MNs at MASC and the continued support from most MN holders, the transition was smooth. Network robustness and stability pays tribute to all that contribute in their own way. While price may have suffered initially, demand is picking up again and our work as a team and collective, will ensure a bright future. Given that no further collateral changes are forthcoming, we can fully focus on the use cases that underpin this project.

Despite the significant fluctuations in functional nodes, MASC systems have been working at 99%. While MASC was trying to loadbalance the nodes, some issues did crop up, which were attacked and resolved quickly. All Proxynode MN's are working and have performed remarkably well considering the turmoil.

We have completed our discord bot (pet) "TipCat". We have released TipCat from her cage to liven up the PRX discord house. TipCat allows you to tip people with PRX, for whatever reason you like. Whether it is help you receive the company others offer or advice you are given, TipCat will make donating easy. We hope to teach TipCat new tricks in the future, but for now we're happy to get her settled in. Big thanks goes to SBurns for his hard work and dedication toward TipCats plight.

We have completed a new block explorer and are preparing its deployment. The explorer is superfast and boasts functionalities allowing you to monitor masternode function. The release of this lightning quick and visually appealing kit is imminent.

That's all we have for now. Enjoy your Sunday and have a great week!

Announcement for the week of May 5th

Welcome to the weekly announcement for Proxynode!

SBurns is making a bot that will auto-answer frequently asked questions. In addition, the bot will allow you to deposit/trade prx within discord and gain coins. In the further down the line we will make this bot work even harder by hosting competitions. We will make further announcements when the release approaches.

We don’t just want the household to run smoothly, solid foundations is what we really strive for. To this end, @Sizzlephizzle#0376 and team have been focusing on two objectives this week.

Firstly, the creation of a new block explorer. The new block explorer will have a working masternodes page that we can use instead of visiting masternodes.online everytime (although both services will be available). Siz has really dug down into the code to try and get the financial features working. Generally speaking the new explorer will be more complete than the current one and we expect it to be 20 times faster (No, we're not joking).
Secondly, we have continued our work on the VPN service. Completion of this project represents a major milestone as it will expand PRX usecase with the provision of a new service. We are still hitting multiple problems with phase 1 but continue to work on this. The service will be available via MASC (as there are already user accounts there, this makes sense) but will also be offered as a service to login to proxynode.network. This adds yet more tasks to the list as we need to build a login system for proxynode.network, secure it, acquire SSL certificates, setup subdomains etc. The list of tasks is literally endless! Watch this space for further updates...

As you know, the collateral increase is fast approaching. To help all MN holders with the transition, we (ahem!, @cookie) created a masternode guide that is freely available to everyone. Please visit the #masternode-guide channel to get your copy.

PRX Price has held strong during the time of BTC pumps and dumps. There is no question that there are many investors with strong hands in this community allowing us to be in an AMAZING position. Don't sell cheap! the market is full of buyers, the charts look promising and the stars are aligning. You can follow our story @ #thestory-so-far.

We acknowledge that there have been some issues with our website. @sizzle likes to break things. On the plus side, our services will be more Sizzle-proof for it. We apologise for any distress our frequent rampages may cause.

Finally, we alway have and always will ask for your feedback. Let us know about the things you would like to hear about from us. Questions are always welcome!

If there is enough interest, we will organise an AMA session with sizzle.

We wish you a great week!

Announcement for the week of April 28th, 2019

Dear all,

We hope you had a fab week! Please find below the latest news from #YourPRXTeam

From our Devs:
We are preparing both ourselves and our customers for the collateral change that will take place around May 7th. We have revamped our dashboard interface, giving customers an intuitive interface, reporting on MN status, PRX balance and days until top-up is required. We also have worked to make the MASC environment more efficient and robust, as we are anticipating heavy demand when MNs need restart en mass.

After a call as part of the mid-week announcement, we have recruited volunteers to test our system on Marcoin and Adnode. Initial tests were successful, and MASC now has multiple live nodes for both coins. SINS and P2P await volunteers that can supply collaterals to step forward. We will start testing our service on these coins in due course.

We are in the late stages of code development for our bespoke VPN service. This service will allow you to establish secure VPN networks, paying for the service in PRX. Trials are promising but have highlighted areas that require further work.

The team continues to work on a MAC wallet and is making progress. Compilation of the wallet for the latest Mac OS does not work and requires investigation. We hope to release a new wallet in the weeks ahead.
From the #WhitePaper writers
Work on the white paper has commenced, but the principle content creator (@Huitemae) had to limit the time spent on this due to two significant (real life) deadlines. These deadlines have slowed progress. He expects to focus on the whitepaper when the clock strikes 17.00 on May 1st.

Finally, in our bid to increase our presence in the Crypto community and spread our message, we have established an account on Medium (https://link.medium.com/TbkrB6wqNV) and Steemit (https://steemit.com/@proxynode). Read about us and show your support by clapping (loads).

That's all from this weeks announcement, get ready for the collateral increase! The clock is ticking!

Announcement for the week of April 14th, 2019

Dear all,

We hope you had a PRXtraordinary week! Please find below the latest from your PRX team!

With the service only in PR-Xistence for a little over five weeks, MASC PRX hosting service hit the 1000 node milestone last week. The extremely fast growth our partnership has experienced bodes well for our future plans. Indeed, the nearly continuous stream of service improvements, and expansion has led to growth in demand and in all likelihood will continue to support PRX price.

Community member @amirali56 alerted us last week to a problem with the BlockExplorer. After investigation by the team, we discovered that the explorer was running behind. The problem is now resolved but we continue to monitor the explorer going forward. We thank @amirali56 for bringing the issue to our attention.

As you know, the community has voted overwhelmingly for a PRX listing on STEX. While we have received a substantial amount of PRX in donations, we do not want to sell (or ’dump’ to put it another way) on CB or CREX. For this reason we encourage (new) investors to purchase PRX from our PR-Xchange. Alternatively, and for those that wish to donate towards our listing, support us by donation of BTC to our dedicated wallet (18aN9Vur7ygNYW2gyzFrodj4YhSb6jRnJC).

As you may be aware, current PRX code will implement a MN Collateral change. The collateral change (from 12K to 24K) will take place on block 250,001, which will be around May 8th. Rewards for MNs will remain at 320 PRX.

To help new investors install their wallet and set up their MNs, the team (headed by @WarSoar supported by @cookie) has spent considerable time and resource on the production of video tutorials and desktop wallpaper design. The videos will be posted on YouTube as soon as possible and the wallpaper made available on our website.
Finally, we are happy to report that work on a brand new ProxyNode whitepaper has commenced. Watch this space for updates on whitepaper progress along with updates of our roadmap.

We hope you will all have a PRXuberant week.

Thanks for the update!

Dear all,

A couple of highlights for you:
- MASC added RepMe at the point of their coin launch. The brought in multiple external node holders who then bought PRX from the exchanges to fund their accounts. This is great for proxynode as it keeps taking pieces of the sellwalls away and spreads Proxynode awareness.
- The pump of BTC and the drop in PRX have balanced, so we are effectively hovering at the same fiat price.
- Work on the "PR-Xchange" continues in the first iteration (automated prx for ltc trades, effectively) but is not yet ready.
- Work on a Proxynode Proxy Server has begun to provide a simple internet access point for people wanting to browse the web from outside of their home country.
- The vote, for a while, was too close to call regarding the evonodes bot but the votes for Yes have won by a slim margin.

Work on the Proxynode Marketing side has begun. Video introduction has been created by @WarSoar  and we're very grateful for that!

That's pretty much all from me this weekend.
Keep watching

Do not bother anyone? 

Very great job team!!

Whilst we focus on the future of the coin, it is not yet possible to release a whitepaper.

Once we have decided our specific approach, we will be releasing one. I would like to point out that Whitepapers are very common and do not assure a coins success, however bitcoin (as an example) does not have a whitepaper. Often, coins need to remain flexible to customer desire and a whitepaper can cause limitations.

Best Wishes
SizzlePhizzle

When will you release whitepaper?

Alright!!!  Super excited to be on board with the REBIRTH of the project.  Sizzlephizzle is doing an amazing job of keep the community up to date.

Hi,
Great to see this coin was taken over by the community!
Sizzlephizzle and the whole team are doing a great job!

What is ProxyNode?

According to the old ANN: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5076241.60
ProxyNode was created to serve as a decentralised platform that provides a more secure platform for virtual private servers.

After the launch of the coin and the project roadmap, the developers concluded that the project end goal (a secure VPS hosting service on the blockchain) was not achievable. This setback then caused the disintegration of the original team and the evaporation of investor interest and market cap value.

On Feb 20th 2019 and after discussion with the founding team, the project was handed over to the community, spearheaded by SizzlePhizzle. As part of the transition, we formed a new team, inspected transferred resources (servers, wallets and repositories) and initiated discussions about the future of the project.

While we appreciated at the time that this news could deter potential investors, we pushed on and critically, committed to being transparent and honest. Here, we formally announce the successful re-establishment of the ProxyNode project and team.

The ProxyNode Team
======================
SizzlePhizzle is the ProxyNode project lead. He and all other team members have no immediate gains from adopting this project, other than the target of a successful coin. There are no pre-mine funds as the project used all of them before the handover. We are rebuilding from the ground and funding the future through incentives and our own personal finances. A lack of funds, however, does not mean that we fall. It means that all the options for going forward need proper scrutiny. We, therefore, have settled on a (short term) road map. Critically, and as part of our overall strategy, we strive to keep the community up to date.
The Proxynode roadmap:
================================
1: Build a team. A team is now in place, although we consider all applications. We regularly call upon the community for contributions.

2: Define areas for collaboration, research, improvement and implementation. We have made significant progress in this area.

3: Discuss with the community about the future direction.

4: Reinvigorate communications channels (Discord, Telegram and Twitter).

5: Get acquainted with and improve the backend setup to ensure a bright future for PRX.

We want to thank all of those early investors who hodled strong and did not waiver under challenging circumstances. They are the real supporters of PRX that are not to be forgotten.

=====UPDATE=====
Proxynode (http://proxynode.network/) in partnership with MASC (http://mascsolutions.uk/) now offer our stakeholders the option of hosting a PRX masternode and paying for the service with PRX, making it a viable currency for a service. We continue working with MASC to bring more services available with PRX being their exclusively accepted currency.
