Money leading to scandal?   Never.   

blockfolio signals! with this service gaining lot of popularity it would be so helpful 

I request some more consistent weekly updates and please post them on official site and maybe on github somewhere...

I have read a lot of bad reviews on reddit but still i can`t believe that they have billions of funding then the hype went down after the launch and many believe that it is mostly centralized. Semux is yet to be discovered by the masses and if it does proven that its tech is better that EOS, TRON, and NEO then get ready for the ride.

Great to see all the progress here smart contract support coming,

Would like to hear the plans for something like Dash's InstantX over the BFT nodes?

Great to see that the EVM and SEM-Core project are keeping update this week.
In this pace, i believe that decentralized SEM (third version) will be released earlier that i have expected.
Also, at the Q2, 2019, we will for sure be accepted by more exchanges, with more reasonable prices and volume.
Go SEM!

The only thing i am feel not so good is that my post will be deleted without any notification, which i feel not not respected at all!
But is seems that this is nothing with SEM team, bu from bitcointalk i guess.
Anyway, i suggested you guys also check your post counting regularly.

I think Semux is already on the radar and that's why it's convenient for some to get this big coin at these price levels, TRON and EOS do not have any more growth margin, but Semux has a lot of possibilities for valuation.

If it will be on radar, than will be not easy to in that becouse price will be so high in long term, but now the price is not in good position and going to low and  volume is so low

Tendermint achieve transaction finality after 1 (sec) confirmation, and although I don't know how TRON consensus works, they claim their consensus is similar to Tendermint

Answer about throughput of network:
5000 tx/block means, that there can be 5000 tx per 30 sec window (so ~166.67 tx/s), tested, as I understand.

I don't think Tron uses BFT and so it does not have transaction finality, which is the huge missing feature point.  Semux wins on this point as it has tx finality after 1 confirmation.

dPOS (which both Tron and Semux have) is OK, but only if you've got BFT and transaction finality does it really become significant.  This isn't a feature Tron can add either.  The network has to be developed from the ground up as a BFT system.  Semux is miles ahead here.

Semux also has the advantage on the decentralization.

Semux has 100 active "delegates" whereas Tron only has 27 active "representatives".

Semux has next to zero marketing and isnt listed on any reputable exchanges. Until that changes Semux is going nowhere.

I've noticed that with the 100 validators it looks something like:

validator position 1, mined blocks: 100,200,300,...
validator position 2, mined blocks: 101,201,301,...
validator position 3, mined blocks: 102,202,302,...

and so on, so that the position of the validator (1-100) is associated with specific block numbers that repeat every 100 blocks.

Because of this, might it be possible to time transactions so that they are mined by specific validators? One other requirement for this idea would probably be that block size capacity isn't near full usage. But if that's the case, eventually you could have wallets that allow you to choose which specific validator you want to validate your transaction, and therefore who would get your tx fee. There could be many reasons for doing this. If someone wanted to start a semux payment gateway, they could buy a validator and batch their transactions so that it only sends transactions when the block will be mined by its own validator. Or they could offer discounts on tx fees if people time their transactions for specific 100 block intervals. With 30 second block times and a single target validator, at most you'd have to wait 50 minutes to get the validator you wanted. Of course each additional validator involved would cut that time in half, and a wallet could take care of validator selection automatically.

Perhaps there might also be a way to have dark validators that provide tx mixing if you send your tx through their validator. With the addition of a smart contract system validators might even offer benefits, sent as tokens, to addresses that frequently transact through their validators. Imagine a semux wallet with a menu of various benefits available by using specific validators  

I'm not necessarily advocating for this, just wondering if there is something about the consensus protocol that would make these scenarios impossible  

on the first sight Tron looks like same as Semux
- Tron is also written in java
- dPOS consensus
- Ethereum compatible virtual machine/smart contracts, already implemented!?

as i can see there some differends
First of all, Tron is funded by an ICO <-> Semux 100% community driven, no ICO.
- Supply: Tron use higher supply 99.000.000.000 TRX. <-> Semux 100.000.000 SEM
- Transaction speed: Tron claims 10.000 transactions per second, i don't know if its true. Semux 5000 per Block !?
- Marketing: Tron has huge Asian Marketing army with lot of promises for the future, i'm not a fan of this kind of hyping but seems to be working when you see partnerships <> Semux has low or nearby no marketing and very focusing on Devlopment. I think Semux need more marketing and partnership in the future to spread out for success.
- Core Devlopmenting: both very active according to github, Tron 7383 Commits by 69 Contributors and Semux 2159 by 9 Contributors. In my opinion you can see here how hard is Semux devs working reach this with quite less poeple.

If i forgot something, let me know.

Tron is trash. Its founder is a con

I think they had a lot of hype at the start. Marketing just does its job. And in the future, still only worthwhile projects will live. I hope Semux will be among the winners.

Amazing to see marketed projects like Tron and EOS get so much glory, while something better like Semux stays under the radar.

there is a specific thread for the signature, please stop to use the official and use  this link

Dang it. Had a really busy week last week and completely forgot to post. Hopefully pick up something in the next drop.
Would have missed out anyway as had a bunch of old posts from 2013 deleted by mods.

It happens to many participants of semux campaign but this thread is not the right place for such discussion .
go and post here :
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.45619996 (Sem Signature Campaign ann)
Leave Semux ANN for development update only .
Thanks

sem is based on the total amount of post last week, that is, if the total amount of post this week is less than that of last week, then you can't get the bounty.
