the campaign ends July 20

I didn't realize the volume of lbtc required when I started playing with the lnd Is there anyone willing to supplement me a few satoshies until I can get a tx service moving. Found out the hard way 7000 satoshis didn't even come close to enough now that's cut in half lol. My only goal on this is to advance the lnd and I wouldn't be upset to make a few pennies on the side. Please hit me up [email protected] or my lnd address is bc1q9mka0zheec22z6yy00ylgm88rl7dc7rwvm6r27

Can I still claim LBTC? I've imported my private key into the light wallet but the amount of LBTC granted was only 0.00051 instead of 3.

Is there a list of pools and what they pay out?

About a month ago, I claim LBTC by importing a private key into an LBTC Wallet 0.0.8 client. Some time ago, the client began to issue a message “Server is lagging" at startup and I couldn’t see my funds. Today I downloaded the updated client LBTC Wallet 0.1.1, imported the same private key into it, but my balance turned out to be zero. What is the problem?

which ratio of airdrop will be for original bitcoin holders?

The article argues that “On-Chain Governance” is a complex problem that is formed in the context of the existing governance structure. After analyzing EOS, Tezos and LBTC, the article suggests that LBTC’s On-Chain Governance concept is highly integrated. However, if it is not implemented properly, it may be end up into chaos, just like EOS.

Entrepreneur: Why Cross-Chain Technology Matters in The Crypto World


Entrepreneur is a famous website that publishes information about various industries and enterprises. It also has its own electronic journals. An article entitled "Why Cross-Chain Technology Matters in The Crypto World" is published on it.
 
The article mainly talks about the technology concept of cross-chain technology, atomic swap, side chain and interledger protocol. The author thinks Lighting Bitcoin (LBTC), the third cross-chain scheme, interledger protocol, meets the trustlessness condition and with a cryptographic condition, can also perfectly constrain the behavior of participants when exchanging non-crypto assets.

Lightning Node Elections June 21-July 20
Requirments and details read here ->https://[Suspicious link removed]/2tBvGRO

1. Lightning Nodes
Lightning Bitcoin uses Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, which allows LBTC holders to choose 101 lightning nodes that would be in charge of validating transactions and maintain the network and in return get rewarded in forged LBTCs.
Lightning Nodes are the core governing bodies and bookkeeping nodes in the Lightning Bitcoin network. Since all the Lightning Nodes are elected by the whole LBTC community, the LBTC community can replace the untrusted nodes by initiating new elections.

2. Candidate Requirements: Basic Information Disclosure
Provide Individual/institution introduction, including:
Name or a list of team members (for institutions);
recommend election teams name should be LBTC-related, for ex “LBTC FLY Community”, “Lightning Hub”, and we also welcome other node election teams to join LBTC node election
Website url;
Resumes;
Individual/ organization info;
Voting address for participating in lightning node election;
Community support plan for the coming year ( within 200 words);
Basic background of the existing community (this section will be considered as part of the contribution to the development and promotion of the community and will bring extra points to the candidate in the election);

3. Elections Requirements
Hardware requirements: minimum requirement 4vCP, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 10M bandwidth;
LBTC Lock-up amount: the minimum LBTC holding amount for bookkeeping is 5000 LBTC.
If a candidate won the election with the holding amount less than 5000 LBTC, the candidate would not be eligible for bookkeeping. The position will be filled by a backup candidate who meets the minimum LBTC holding requirement.
In order to better align the interests between bookkeeping nodes and LBTC communities, LBTC’s mainnet source code will be upgraded on July 1st, 2018.

4. Procedure: Lightning Node Elections
Election dates:
June 21st, 2018 — July 20th, 2018
Starting date and time is June 21st 12:00pm.
For more information, please click the LBTC forum link.
Before submitting the information, please refer to the campaign submission notice in the forum!
The deadline is July 20th 22:00.
Considering the fact that LBTC mainnet has been running smoothly for months, candidates will be evaluated based on the level of contribution. On July 20th, the final list of candidates will be determined.

Assessment: The LBTC team will give a real-time and comprehensive assessment of all the candidates who have made a positive impact on the LBTC ecosystem development. A more detailed guideline will be released soon.
During the election: the LBTC team will give an assessment based on the community contribution guideline. If a candidate is lack of community contribution, its supporting votes might be withdrawn. If the candidate meets the minimum community contribution in the future, the candidate will still be able to run an election campaign. The voting mechanism will be improved over time in the ecosystem development plan. The whole election will be conducted under the supervision of the entire LBTC community.
On the consensus level: lightning nodes can only be elected on the basis of the supporting votes form LBTC holders. During the election process, the LBTC team will release the final assessment results and vote for the high ranked candidates. Notice that the support from the LBTC team might not determine the final success of a candidate because its supporting votes needs to be ranked into the top 101. In addition, the candidate needs to meet the minimum LBTC holding requirement (5,000 LBTC).

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Why do you provide only the daemon/cli binaries for Linux and not the Qt GUI? And why do you provide no binaries at all for Windows? All of that is very easy to compile and works without any problem (except your syncing bug).

[Source Code] Lightning Bitcoin source code on GitHub: https://github.com/lbtcio/lbtc-core
We are extremely excited to open LBTC source code to our community! Check, Contribute, Develop with us!

Ok, thanks for info.
I will try it soon.
But I don't use C++.  Need download C++ and install it?

Why LBTC it's a VERY bad choice? (Part 2)

Hello everyone. After my article, i get official answer and now have time to write new article.

• Quote: "Lightning Bitcoin team took coins from inactive addresses which altogether accounts for around 12% (2700000 coins) of the total number of coins."
• Answer: Shit... I write they took 20%, they answer 12%. They simply can not calculate how much they took. Why do i write 20%? I take 2,72kk from 16,75kk total coin supply minus segwit addresses and also some "forever lost" coins. But if we take 2,72kk from 16,75kk its 16,2%. Bad.
• Quote: "We have already completed two rewarding sessions: for light wallet testing, early awards for community contributors."
• Answer: Are you kidding me? I look LBTC Early Awards. Awards sum is 0,000155kk from 2,72kk. Gj, you accounted for the taken 0,000155kk of coins. 2,719845kk left. Bad.
• Quote: "The main objective of a market making is to provide liquidity for investors and traders."
• Answer: So what? So founders really sell it? How they provide liquidity? I see only one answer: they sell coins. Bad.
• Quote: "One of the obvious drawbacks of SegWit is a vast centralization of validating nodes, centralization in the way of centralized development."
• Answer: So they can make same as BCH (possible to claim but not to use), they dont. Sure they want quote "manipulate the price by limiting circulation supply". Bad.
• Quote: "Hope we answered all the questions"
• Answer: WTF? Really? Where answers about coins sended to exchange? Where this coins? If they dont sell it - show addresses with this coin to community... Where answers about votes for himself nodes and cobo pool?

Fatality: Also founder send new 50 000 coins to DigiFinex. Proof - coins sended from start claimed coins. They still "provide liquidity"?

Conclusion: The founder evades the answers to the questions, continues to forging the coin with his nodes and take a portion of the profit from the pool. He does not care about investors. You must beware of investing in this coin.

Why LBTC it's a bad choice?

2.7kk for founder 4th February.

• Founder take 2.72kk coins at fork moment. And he is not announce this digits, only abstract “We took LBTC from inactive addresses”. It is about 20% of all coins.
• Proof: Blocks 500012-500020, for example: http://explorer.lbtc.io/blockinfo?param=500012&from=search https://explorer.lbtcscan.io/block/3230cffd1f3dafabe2159352e8b163f33dccd63fcb6e67b1bf757b05b2cf377d
• Founder selling LBTC on DigiFinex exchange. Proof address: 13YWwD4qREqjfeVpR32wY2CMVcErnV42iS. https://explorer.lbtcscan.io/address/13YWwD4qREqjfeVpR32wY2CMVcErnV42iS coins coming to this address – from fork and send to main exchange wallet (1mJy5UcfLeWxSWWDtpFKPvDoY1iNy24mR) as we can see – founder send about 370k coins to exchange. (I think he sell about 50% of this amount and other 50% send to his new addresses for hide)

Decentralization? What's this?

• 51 nodes taken by cobo pool. People dont care about ecology, vote only for rewards, for pool.
• Other 48 nodes – its investors or founder nodes. Proof: take any node from 101, not pool. For example “ghostfaceuk”. Check voters, check few addresses and look how this addresses got coins. For example: 1BQGEE1SVdWrozWSU1duDgDZqdpzYdMCzQ 25th February from 1ZiqgsBUGurqHtEL3zrebR5GHsRKSgHzr and this address take 50 000 coins from fork 19XAxUp72VuwxYvrKE5DJWY1SGTCxDLbeH address. Also you can just look 1ZiqgsBUGurqHtEL3zrebR5GHsRKSgHzr transactions and check their votes. https://explorer.lbtcscan.io/address/1ZiqgsBUGurqHtEL3zrebR5GHsRKSgHzr it's easier.
• Some votes from this address (1ZiqgsBUGurqHtEL3zrebR5GHsRKSgHzr) voted for cobo pool, so he take part of little investors rewards.

Segwit

• LBTC cuted segwit support. I thought why the Segwit support was not included. And I came to a conclusion - to avoid competition. You can independently count how many coins were on Segwit addresses and cut them from the circulating supply.

Conclusion: founder trying hide his selling “community coins”, coin controlled by one man.

P.S. The article is written in a hurry, this is my personal opinion and I will be glad to hear the opinion of the community.

Update: Funny official answer from founder:

https://imgur.com/fA8ErWO

• no any proof

Figured out how to fix it, if you are still having issues.

First try simply downloading/adding that file... info on youtube/google as to where to download it and where to put the file. If that doesn't work, make sure your windows is up to date (at least 1st service pack on win 7)... then update C++ from Microsoft. After that, it worked for me.
