Dear Dev,

Any updates on urea exchange. As you can see hash rate is not steady and falling. I think its time to update the community on the developments. Otherwise people will forget about this coin.

1. "As you can see hash rate is not steady and falling": Uro network hashrate has never fallen below 150Mh since launch, and is currently around 500Mh. The calculation rate is never steady in an open source, open platform distributed computation platform where anyone can join and leave whenever they please. but note that we have computational support at multiple locations in each continent, which cannot be said for most altcoins that are at the mercy of a few pools. The worse block generation time has been around 17 minutes and this recovered to a few minutes after a day or 2

2. "I think its time to update the community on the developments. Otherwise people will forget about this coin": We promised Urea backed exchange platform capability 3 months after launch and it has been less than 1 month since launch. Please understand that unlike typical altcoins many you may be familiar with on this forum, our priority for Uro is not to attain rapid value increases via high time/monetary expenditures on graphics/marketing/promotions so that some of the early adopters can make a quick buck by selling their currency units on an exchange. Our goal, which has been clearly stated in the OP, is to create and sustain a platform for the transparent and efficient international trade of Urea over a 9 month period. Unfortunately, this means that if your mentality is to predict/calculate your profits on mining based on your costs and gains over a weekly/fortnightly/monthly (or worse, daily) basis, you will mathematically not choose to mine Uro.


First of all, I like the idea of the coin and want this coin to be successful. I have mined this coin from the time a pool was launched on day 1 and never sold a single coin. I bought them instead in the markets.

1. Current hash rate is around 250 MH (500 Mh). I have seen many people renting rigs of more than 600 MH on launch day and as the difficulty went higher all of them stopped mining. Current difficulty is 20 and estimated next difficulty is 11.6.

2. I do not have any need to liquidate my UROs to pay my electricity bills. I can hold all my coins for more than a year. But someone cannot keep mining a coin where there are no developments or updates. You cannot spend your hashing power for a few months and later realize that the developer is gone. In my opinion this is a service industry. You are not selling any tangible goods here for the people to touch and feel. So, people buying it should be happy about owning it, which can be done by keeping them updated. You have clearly stated in the OP that fixed quantity of urea fertilizer will assigned to each URO. I was waiting for that day to see this coin become successful. But URO was listed on exchange so fast before launching Urea exchange. I know you were not involved in getting it listed on bittrex exchange and you did not want that to happen. Then why did you change the title of the thread to include [URO][X11][BITTREX] ??

I would like to reiterate that I am a supporter of the coin and want this coin to be successful. But like all other miners I want to know what I am mining.

What is the status for now? Tried to mine it today, but that seems to be impossible?

What is the problem you are having. We just confirmed both p2pool and solo mining are working fine. You can check the block explorer to verify this.

I made a mistake in the configuration, running my private pool, but in another pool it works, so no problem from your side, it's working fine.
I am continuing mining this, really like it  Smiley

Dev, a few questions

What is the quantity of Urea per one URO you are planning to underwrite?
What are the states/countries you are targeting?
Why do you think these multi million dollar companies use URO instead of USD?
What will be the mechanism through which farmers buy urea using URO?
What will be the basis for Uro/Urea initial backing/underwriting ratio?
Will this ratio keep changing year on year or will it change? If so, on what basis?

I truly believe if you are able to do as per your plan, this could be the biggest coin launched this year. The only coin for which the real world purpose is clear.

Response:

What is the quantity of Urea per one URO you are planning to underwrite? This is still being negotiated.
What are the states/countries you are targeting? Asia, Africa, South America and (mainly Eastern) Europe
Why do you think these multi million dollar companies use URO instead of USD? Because Uro represents a futures contract trading facility that can be used to hedge against the volatile and illiquid state of current USD based trading methods
What will be the mechanism through which farmers buy urea using URO? Farmers will purchase Uro ahead of time to hedge against the risk of Urea prices changing. They can exchange it back to their local currency when they need to obtain the Urea in physical form.
What will be the basis for Uro/Urea initial backing/underwriting ratio? We will target as large a ratio as possible, and we are negotiating hard to get a larger quantity of Urea underwriting
Will this ratio keep changing year on year or will it change? If so, on what basis? Once established the ratio is very unlikely to change - since farmers will be relying on its value as a back to a certain amount of Urea. However our partners are committed to following the 10% per annum increasing in underwriting volume. To make this sustainable in the long term (5+ years) the initial agreed ratio is crucial, hence why we are spending so much time and effort on getting that number right and having all the correct legal paperwork to set it in stone for current and future generations to benefit from the plan.

We are in teleconferences with our Urea trading partners on a daily basis. There are about 7 separate legal procedures that each need to be completed in sequence, with many parties involved - including banks, law firms, government departments, factories, exporter, importers, wholesalers, insurance companies etc... We are trying to minimize delays caused by clerical mistakes and other factors, so everything is being triple checked. In addition we are still in the process of reaching consensus on the Uro/Urea initial backing/underwriting ratio.

Keep us posted, the miners will come back when more plans/updates are available. You could have an amazing coin here but obviously promotion will need to happen if you want to see it blossom. Is your goal to get the legal stuff done, then promote? Basically what's your game plan for awareness and adoption?

what's wrong with the diff of Uro?
could you clear it?thank you

We are investigating the issue and have purchased and deployed emergency X11 hashing capacity to keep the blockchain secure and generating blocks while we identify if there is an issue and if so solve it.

We noticed the higher then expected difficulty of 88 on Saturday and have been monitoring the situation and comparing the situation with our testnet sandbox experiments over the last 3 days.

Blocks are still being generated every 15 minutes and the network continues to operate normally - we are processing transactions hourly to confirm transaction processing is functioning as expected.

Net hashrate is only 363.47 MH/s,But diff is high at 88.Something wrong?

It seems to me that the diff has held steady at 88 for days now, but maybe I'm wrong.......

Hey true-asset, could you please take some time to answer the above queries. It is important for us to know these things and the more information the better it is. You have a great idea but we need to know the plan also to build a secure network as is required by the urea trading partners (as you mentioned in the OP).
