To some extent yes, but without fighting:)

One of the principles of Sun Tzu in the Art of Business is Capture your market without destroying it

“Generally in war, the best policy is to take a state intact; to ruin it is inferior to this….For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.”  Sun Tzu

Interesting reading. Thank God i went through and through Sun Tzu - Art of War, while in the military. No it´s "ONLY" a matter of understanding boolean logic and the binary number system:)

As for Sun Tzu i find it very interesting that  he is quoted many times in Command & Leadership theories and well as military strategy , although not as many as in Modern business. Are we at war in business?

Join us!

Welcome to Bitlattice, we are happy you found out about this and hopefully there is something you may help us with to get more involved. It's a great community and a lot of people are offering their assistance in various ways. We have noticed that the interest in Bitlattice seems to grow rapidly. We are simultaneously preparing for test net and try to follow up every incoming request to help/invest.

Good morning,

Just came across your thread and sent an e-mail to try and follow/get involved more closely.
Wish all the best.

Hi bitcoinpaul, please email us at [email protected] and we'll add you to our list of people interested in investing.
The same apply to everyone else of course.

Eagerly waiting for invest opportunity

I just looked how DAG works and now bitlattice!? 

We love Twitter but from now you can also follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/bitlattice/ and Instagram https://www.instagram.com/bitlattice/

Hi bozzyboo and sotisoti,

It depends what decentralization means. The main idea behind BL is to strip human actors of any impact on network. Thus it is both decentralized (there is no humans led center) and totally centralized (decision process is meant to be performed by network, humans supply computing power only).

Sure. Whatever it means.

Both scenarios can be applied - untraceable and traceable txs. From structural point of view applying them both adds little complexity. And this is my stance. Let users decide. Besides, even with traceable one can easily use mixing solutions.

Yes. With pluggable VMs (I dislike Turing complete ones and would love to see some limited ones).

High. This was one of key factors that prompted me to start developing it.

Sure. While there will be no mining in classic sense (PoW), coins will be minted in return for sharing computation power and storage.

Of what? API interface can have some JS port (if someone writes it). But the reference client won't be in JS. For multiple reasons.

The prototype is being written in Python (and some C for fast CUDA kernels that aren't actually crucial). It's just easier, transparent to read and interpreter takes care about boring stuff. It's for purpose. The target client is meant to be written in a language with low level access to memory (and some other spices). So, C for instance (it's not yet decided, I'd prefer it). Thus it's easier to prepare cleanly readable code first, test it, and implement into less readable and easier to abuse language. Besides, my style keeps no standards, so it's better if it's at least readable.
The choice of language with low level access to memory is due to things that always made me feel uneasy while analyzing other coins' clients. Would prefer having means to at least obfuscate crypto operations in memory. Especially since Spectre came into light (just wrote a small, sketchy art about it: https://medium.com/@Hibryda/on-melting-spectre-or-how-soft-hardware-can-lead-to-coitus-interruptus-with-your-coins-6f975e8b22b9 ). Call me paranoid, but it never failed me.

If I understood properly your partly imprecise questions, then the answer is yes.

Sure, please write to [email protected] . My team will lead you further.

Which programming language do you use to build the project?

Hi Hibryda,

The project seems interesting & looking forward to WP & a peer review of said WP.

From my blockchain research & the potential it has to disrupt society, I note the following should be featured:

1. Complete decentralization, not partial, but complete & full decentralization
2. Fair & open governance model for the benefit of the whole community
3. Privacy functionality with untraceable transactions
4. Smart contracts & dApp platform
5. High ability to scale - scalability without impacting on complete decentralization
6. Fair & widespread token distribution
7. Programming language that majority of developers can code to - e.g. JavaScript like LISK


Would all these items be addressed with the lattice structure?

I am also interested in being an early contributor to any unique/innovative technology!!

Thanks
Bozz

Confirmation times depend on a distance inside lattice. Thus aren't one number we could just paste here. Besides, as mentioned before - it requires some more in-house and live tests to determine real ranges.
As to structure - it consists of spatially distributed nodes playing different roles. Some act similarily to blocks - they store data (txs, logic, just data). Others are a skeleton of lattice providing means to retain state.
As to consensus - it's detached from external actors and managed via authorities (small programs) "living" in lattice. They must be processed ofc, but processing yields no vector to manipulate them. More will come with WP.
BR,
Hibryda

As to confirmation time possible, we expect low-latency/very fast tx time but since we haven't tested yet we don't want to speculate, we will see soon in test net. The exact details will be released when publishing the wp.

Many of us "old bitcointalk timers" appreciate your enthusiasm and support for projects in this ground-breaking field. At these early days, we are all part of making history whether we actively develop or just participate in discussions such as this.

From my history is quite clear that I do not support every project.  I try only to support a project that is decentralized and trustless (have to draw line somewhere).  It also should have something new or at least newish about it.  Sometimes I do support a clone if the development team looks smart and fast... you never really know what a project can turn into.  If the dev team drops clues of being smart and efficient, then that is a good sign there could be more in store.

I thought my question was fairly reasonable, but let me rephrase.  The lattice, what type of confirmation time is possible?  I guess it doesn't have blocks, so there will be something else?  How does your lattice achieve consensus?  I don't think these questions are covered, least in much detail yet.

Happy new year.

According to your post history, you support every project in existence, and thus cannot read even the basics about them, eh?

Alright, I will send email.  Your project looks interesting.  What txs / block will it do and what will be "block" time?  What concensus algorithm will use?

Hi xibeijan, you don't need to be a programmer to help us. Please continue to support us on this forum, tell your friends about this project. If you want to participate in the test net please write to [email protected], and no you don't have to be a programmer to participate in the test net. Thank you for your support!
