Bugfix
After the superblock (proposal payment) has passed in September, we were able to collect some hang and crash memory dumps. It doesn’t look like it has anything to do with memory leaks (see the image of RAM usage analysis below). Rather the problem is with the governance system thread synchronization. There is a deadlock, that probably leads execution to the data segment instead of the code segment. A core developer (Volodymyr) analyzed all the dumps and eventually restructured thread synchronization for the governance system. The fix is is ready to be tested.

Crown Platform Development
I was working on the ground layer registration protocol and have finished registration transaction implementation and JSON RPC API to register new entities. I have added another new transaction type that will define a protocol for each entity being registered. The protocol was generalized and will become a layer to register/issue new non-fungible (unique) tokens. You can read more about NF tokens here. The work is in progress, a lot of different pieces are at the implementation stage. A separate comprehensive article about it will be released in the coming months.

Migration of Crown addresses
Chris (aka dzlbobo) is finishing testing the migration of new Crown addresses. Everything looks good so far. There are also other non-core tasks list to make changes to all other existing CRW wallets. Once the address prefix is unique for Crown, we can be added to Trezor (implementation nearly complete) and Ledger in the future. Ashot will also implement a converter for paperwallets to import old-type addresses.

Crown Proof-of-Stake protocol
The custom Proof-of-Stake protocol is being developed by an external development team from Paddington Software Services LLC. It’s a new Proof-of-Stake mechanism that utilizes the network of Crown Masternodes and Systemnodes. Anyone who owns a Systemnode or a Masternode will be able to automatically take part in the consensus protocol by fair staking rules. We expect it will make the Crown network more decentralized and secure, and simplify the staking process for the node holders. The PoS team now is working on launching a new separate testnet to test the first version of Crown PoS protocol. The build and instructions for public testing will be available next week. Tom (presstab) told me that he pre-mined enough coins for this network, so people who want to test it using Masternodes or Systemnodes can join the new network and see how the protocol is going to work.

This internal 6 weeks milestone will finish today, on 21st of September. The next one will start right after the planning meeting.

Cheers!

The Crown Development Team

Shows that Crown has a real community, that is its biggest strength, real people solving real problems and helping each other.

Crownfunding update

In January 2018 the below quoted Crownfunding campaign was setup with the goal of making Crown more accessible and decentralized for community members to acquire, by being added on an additional top quality exchange.
Your support was asked, and very generously given. Within 24hours the target of 100k$ was reached, and blown away shortly after - demonstrating the strength and resilience of the Crown network.

Blockchain technology has been evolving at a rapid pace, paired with lots of failure, trials & error and all the wild west scenarios that thrive in such an unregulated space. This meant that the journey of pursuing what we set out to do with this campaign was a more difficult one than anticipated at that time. We had to deal with multiple no shows and worse...

However due to the strong fundamentals of the crown platform and the perseverance of our community (especially @olya_crypto), we now have secured the objective: Crown is traded on Upbit, a top 10 quality exchange. Upbit will help provide access to the Crown token, and on top of that is a hub to the Asian community. Besides Upbit, Crown is also strategically represented on the decentralized exchange cryptobridge.

What comes next
We are in the middle of the switch to Proof of Stake right now. The testnet is soon expected to be live, with the switch to mainnet complete around the end of 2018, beginning of 2019.
In parallel to this, a minimal viable API is being developed, enabling blockchain as a service usecases to be deployed on the Crown network. So stay tuned for that.

The article will probably catch more eyeballs from potential investors, who might make their decisions to invest money into Crown project.
Of course, it takes time to see real effects of the article on flow of capital on Crown project.

Nice exposure on Masternode buzz

Apparently someone has made an external tumbler for this coin: https://twitter.com/CrownPlatform/status/1041717505918689281

Good work!

Obviously, the price rise (to where it should be in those days) because of the listing to the new exchange. Hope to stay around that value. With POS & hardware wallet integration by the end of the year, CRW will be back in the game big time.

Impressive, this is why Crown rocketed today.
How about link to Crown bounty (in particular, Signature bounty)?
Can you give me link to this one (if available and joinable at the moment.)

crown coin big pump by a big whale  

Everyone needs to make their own mind and decide. This fight is far from over  

U going to sell at these prices?

Felt bad when somebody dumped on a large buy order of me on Friday at 3k, but was a gift from the heavens

The Crown team is proud to announce the listing of CRW on one of the largest exchanges in the world: Upbit. Thank you for the hard work @olya_crypto The market is live:

https://upbit.com/exchange?code=CRIX.UPBIT.BTC-CRW

I ask the channel adm to present our pool where we also have the CROWN in bet (Stake) and in Masternode Shared. A PooL ECO STAKE, a PoS (Stake) and Shared Masternode mining pool that does not work with quotas or minimum deposits. Join our Discord and check our channels, request our social networks and the site: https://discord.gg/m4FhHbE

The community is testing it now. I think Artem plans to release the prefixes with the PoS release by end of the year so in few months, not days. You can give a hand if you like to:

THIS IS NOT THE SAME PROTOCOL AS MAINNET SO DO NOT USE YOUR WALLET

In order to run a testnet build then add "testnet=1" in crown.conf

Linux: https://gitlab.crown.tech/crown/crown-core/-/jobs/2870/artifacts/download
Windows: https://gitlab.crown.tech/crown/crown-core/-/jobs/2868/artifacts/download
MacOS: https://gitlab.crown.tech/crown/crown-core/-/jobs/2873/artifacts/download

Pipeline link: https://gitlab.crown.tech/crown/crown-core/pipelines/557

To update your MN or SN in testnet then use the following script:

MN: sudo apt-get install curl -y && curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Crowndev/crowncoin/add-testnet-option-to-script/scripts/crown-server-install.sh | bash -s -- -t -m

SN: sudo apt-get install curl -y && curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Crowndev/crowncoin/add-testnet-option-to-script/scripts/crown-server-install.sh | bash -s -- -t -s

Any news about address prefix changes? If everything is going well - as I think it will - we'll have a mandatory wallet release very soon isn't it?
