@uboid may be you can try to rebuild openssl, then build UBIC again.

I installed from the sources it and it solved my problem, one thing however is that I had to run sudo ./b2 install , otherwise I would get permission errors.
It solved my previous problem but now I am getting another error when running /etc/init.d/ubic start

1.58 is too old, 1.6x is required.
Can you try to install a newer version from the sources?

This will install 1.64:

It gives me

@uboid can you run apt-cache policy libboost-all-dev and give me the output?

I am trying to install it and I get the following error:

I am using ubuntu 16

We now also have our own sub reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/UBIC/

@regarcigar I understand that the details are not that easy to understand because it goes very technical, less technical descriptions will be released later.
We are also still working on the Windows wallet which will be released during the next days so that less technical people can join.

information about the project is not clear
and hard to understand

how will investors be interested because there is no information that is less clear?

@vuppie0 so it certainly is. However the DSCs(Document Signing Certificates) still needs to be published on the ICAO PKD web site to be used in UBIC.

Then maybe you could also add the Turkish passport to the list?

According to Wikipedia:

@vuppie0 : Expanding to other countries is possible.
The requirement are that the country:
 - uses ECDSA certificates or RSA certificates with an exponent >= 65537
 - emits a new Document Signing Certificate at least every three months are required by the ICAO
 - Publishes these certificates
This was the case with the countries listed in my first post.

This sounds like a nice project, will it expand to other countries as well?

UBIC stands for Universal Basic Income Currency and is a blockchain -based platform that will distribute crypto currency under the form of an universal basic income .
- How does it work?
Since 2008, more than 60 countries issue biometric passports, which include a NFC-compliant RFID chip containing digitally signed personal information.
These embedded NFC chips can be read out easily using smartphones and other NFC-capable devices.
UBIC takes advantage of this existing technology and uses the unique digital signature issued with every E-Passport in order to securely distribute a basic income.
To receive this UBI, a user has to recover the digital signature from the chip by using his NFC capable computer or smartphone, this piece of information is then cryptographically linked to an UBIC address.
Within minutes— and this every minute until approximately expiration of his passport— the user will receive a country -specific UBIC token named UUS for the US, UCH for Switzerland, UUK for the UK, and so on.

-Who can participate?
Everyone  can receive and make payements, however, if you want to receive an UBI, you need to own a valid (non-expired) passport of one of the following countries:

Currency code	Country	UBI yearly emission rate	additional information
UCH	Switzerland	10,196,640
UDE	Germany	100,599,840

- How much will I receive?
There is a static amount of coins distributed every minute. For example, for Germany, 191 units will be minted every minute.
The amount each individual receives depends on the amount of people having registered. If there is only one UBI subscriber for Germany, then he will collect the full 191 units.
If there are more than one subscriber, this amount will be equally split and if there is a division reminder, it will be added to the payout of the next block.
As a consequence, if the number of subscribers increase, you'll receive less but probably more valuable coins.
This design incites people to register as soon as possible and makes the coins valuable, as the maximal supply is predictable and the value of a single coin has the potential to increase over time.

- What about transaction fees?
Transaction fees are important to ensure that a fair use is made of the limited available amount of transaction storage within a block.
To make sure this fee isn't neither too low nor too high, the fee will depend on the current UBI payout.
This means that a simple one input, one output transaction will cost you about 3 to 6 hours of UBI. The transaction fee itself is burned/destroyed, which is meant to reduce inflation.

- How many people can join?
UBIC intends to be much more scalable than other crypto currencies, this will mainly be achieved by relying on less but more powerfull nodes;
by design, donations to nodes have been simplified at some of the dev funds will be allocated to it.
with a mix of designated and elected delegates.
Under the current implementation, there will be a maximum of 50 super nodes.
Currently, blocks are limited to about 2MB in size; this translates in about 20 times more block space than Bitcoin currently has.

- When will it start?
The source code is released hereby on Github as well as all the necessary resources to run a node.

- External resources
White paper
Android app
Source code
Block explorer
Installation instructions (Linux)
Installation instructions (video)


- Development fund
UBIC is the result of over one year of intense research and development, this effort won’t stop now and will require some funding.
Unlike many other projects, we have decided not to run an ICO, instead, our development fund will get it's own kind of UBI.
This represents 10% of the supply during the first year, 5% the second year, 2.5% the third year, and so on for the next year.

The development fund will be used for expenses such as:
 - Continuing the development of UBIC
 - Bug, translation and security bounties
 - Blockchain explorer development
 - Mobile App development
 - Running nodes
 - And any required or desirable new developments.

If you want to do one of those things, please write to me.
If you want to receive donations for running a node, all you need to do is to add your address in the config.ini file.
Then create a Pull request with your node IP address on this repository: https://github.com/UBIC-repo/node-list
