Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone on this brilliant project Grin

Back at you and to everybody else

Things are a little slow over the holidays, we are chipping away at a real use case writeup for artists in the music industry.

Honestly a pretty weak use case unless you build essentially a musix and art hosting platform and those can view/tip/buy it on the platform. I guess it's better than nothing which is what most choose.

The music industry is pretty broad so saying it is a weak use case without knowing any details is a little premature imo

There will be a few different ones we are working on to give examples of how Raptoreum can be utilized with both smart contracts and assets.

This particular one is helping artists with distribution and track music ownership, as well as royalties down the ladder which becomes pretty complex quickly, and is costing artists substantial losses in a already tough industry. We are simply providing examples it is up to developers to come up with all the nitty gritty details and mechanics.

If anybody else has ideas for use cases ideas I would love to hear about them.

I don't see any information in the web site, whether they're running, I don't know where his error. If anyone could tell me where I can read and learn about the project?

Click the button "About Us" most resources are listed there, as well as on the first post of this ANN. If you have anything unanswered after that let me know just what is the piece missing and I will answer it for you.

Edit: We are not running, testnet development is underway and we will announce a date for launch on that soon TM

Real Use Case Development

The above use case bounty has generated some very cool ideas, specifically for the music industry. We have now a couple people from the music industry working on a use case for Raptoreum and it is extremely exciting to see this so early in Raptoreums life. This use case will take advantage of the Asset platform and smart contracts, we will be publishing a full and in depth paper on this when it is complete, and there is a very good chance it will be picked up, developed, and used once Raptoreum makes smart contracts available.

More awesome sauce Cheesy

Post a real use case for Raptoreum here > https://twitter.com/kawwwoin/status/1075389480100614145

Chance to win a IOU for 3k RTM after mainnet. Do not post it here please.

Damn better get to typing Cheesy

We will be doing some trivia and other contest over the holidays, winners will receive one Asset names RAPTOREUMIOU. Each one of these is worth 1000 RTM (Raptoreum) and will be paid out after mainnet launch.

You must have a Ravencoin wallet in order to receive the asset which is listed here: https://ravencoin.asset-explorer.net/a/RAPTOREUMIOU

This activity serves a few functions:

1.) Fun Cheesy

2.) Introduce people to the asset system as it will function the same way on Raptoreum
3.) Bank some RTM before mainnet launches Wink

This is happening only on Discord and is at random over the next 10 days > https://discord.gg/2T8xG7e

Good luck and have fun!

We will be going with our own algo instead of ProgPow, this algo is named "GhostRider" and is a combination of x16r and CNv1-8.

Additionally weekly updates are now being published on our blog, here is the first one: https://medium.com/@kawwwoin/raptoreum-the-beginning-weekly-update-one-72a4dae420d5

Great, is this algorithm already coded or is this still to come? Do you know or expect the first mining software to be AMD or Nvidia focused?

We are still hashing out just how it will be put together, I would think actual development will start once holidays are done. I would like to equally offer for both AMD and Nvidia, but really that will be dependent on who picks up the miner development and or adds to their existing miner.

Any idea on what would keep this fpga resistant other than the need to develop a new bistreams to accommodate the algorithm?

The newest CN has some elements that really help slow down FPGAS, part of what is being looked at is incorporating those elements across the whole combination. Not to block them completely but slow them down to GPU levels at which point they become uninterested given the high purchase cost of decent FPGA units. Plus adding in the whole range of variants you will end up having to daisy chain larger numbers of medium priced boards to get it to work.
Is it a perfect solution? No, but will it work significantly better than anything out of the box at the moment? Yes Grin

Sounds good but it seems like the perfect Target for GPU acceleration, the GPU would handle those elements and the fpga would handle the parts it is more efficient at. That's the plan for most algorithms when SQRLS miner launches for their acorns.

If they launch and if they can actually deliver something working. From the way they have been handling things to date, I'll want to see it before I believe it. Then again I'm not against hybridization of the mining sphere as that would be actual evolution and innovation rather than futzing around with tech that can be forked away from.

Furthermore, the way they've set up their marketing of ProgPOW as "asic" resistant then getting ready to FPGA rape it is pretty disgusting. Kekack800 does not implement significantly differently from regular kekack on an FPGA. Discounting the amount of skilled/semiskilled people looking at things is the ultimate exercise of stupidity.

Also how is a ded company supposed to be releasing miners?

I think you're treating mineority and SQRL as the same company, Mineority folded but was in partnership with SQRL. SQRL did happen to go ahead and continue to host those who paid for hosting from Mineority out of their cost, SQRL is the one releasing products and software. Mineority is/was ran by ohgodagirl and she seems to be quite the pain to deal with from what I understand.

From my POV it would be an interesting innovation. However I think they won't materialize till way later down the line if at all. They have enough issues dealing with getting bitstreams out for their overpriced boards. So I'd expect them to focus on that first acorns somewhere way down the list.
