Topic: [BBR] Boolberry: Privacy and Security - Guaranteed Since 2014 - page 72. (Read 1210749 times)

So, what do you want to do?

All of the aliased addresses on Boolberry's chain will be gone, do you want to import that feature? It has kind of half baked tying an alias to a block.

Do you want to import the dev tax?

The peculiarities around Boolberry's scaling "solution"?

or just relaunch a new cryptonote fork and do the swap, and start developing more from there

There are still bunches of things a cryptonote coin can do that others are not doing, to make it stand out

Does BBR have a lite wallet, or web wallet yet?

Can the client be connected to a remote node like XMR?

[1]Somewhat.

Clintar is no longer working on his LMDB code. At this point it doesn't make any sense to commit resources to the old codebase given the amount of work we're putting into the new one. The other developer you're speaking of, face, only took a break from the new codebase to make necessary API requirements so trading could resume for Boolberry. In hindsight, part of that effort turned out to be a waste of dev time since Hitbtc attempted to extort us for more funds. On the bright side Bisq.io will be adding BBR soon as a result of more recent improvements.

Since the developers are being paid in BBR it makes sense they have access to liquidity if they need to pay bills. I've been supplying them with BTC as they need it to manage the situation.

Regarding LMDB and RocksDB: We're doing extensive profiling between the two concepts and at the moment RocksDB is outperforming LMDB. We're still making optimizations to see if LMDB is worth making the switch. There are also other potential candidates for future profiling, most notably NuDB used by Ripple and SimDB. Ironically, Ripple was using RocksDB until they ran into scaling issues that made them create NuDB. The drawback is that its SSD only so users without SSD would need to revert back to RocksDB as is the case with Ripple or LMDB if that optimization proves otherwise.

[2] Cryptonote 2.0 codebase has been completely refactored from the original Bytecoin 1.0 (AEON, BBR, XMR, etc). So bringing in commits cross stream is no trivial task since essentially they are two separate projects. It's doable, but it doesn't make a lot of sense.

That brings me to another thing:

clintar2 and occasionally another dev is adding improvements to Boolberry's code base. Whether it is accessibility functions for being added to exchanges or the LMDB improvements

while b4h4mu7 is working with a parallel set of developers on a private repository that forks off of bytecoin, with the possibility of a coinswap to make this compatible, instead of merging the code base with Boolberry's existing code

am I understanding this correctly? These are two parallel things?

Bytecoin uses RocksDB IIRC, while Monero went with the LMDB direction. Since these can be stark differences, amongst others, is there intended to be any cross drift in the commits being done between repositories?

Very curious about the coinswap, I can agree that a hardfork can be difficult to pull off properly

How would you do a transparent coinswap of a cryptonote coin? I don't think you can do this purely on-chain, may need a google form or API to keep track of recipients and their payments.

Talking this through I guess you could use the payment ID field and publish the viewkey so people could match up transactions

I'll say it in simple words, this is one of the best thing i've seen in crypto since awhile!   Pure genius!  Now you got my attention for sure!

Some are wondering why the Boolberry codebase hasn't had much improvements over the last 5 months. It's because we've been working on a separate codebase. In the spirit of transparency, I want to reiterate the development plans for this project in case anyone overlooked my commitment to this project. Back in June, I informed everyone I would be building a team to take this project to the next level and over the last 5 months we've been getting closer to that goal.



As stated in June, our plan was to work off the Bytecoin 2.0 codebase and from there bring in the unique BBR properties. We chose Bytecoin because it's closest thing to vanilla Cryptonote and despite its shady history it has a lot of features that aren't present in other CN projects. It also gives us room to make improvements without many moving parts.

That said, what initially began as a fix for the DB issue, soon spiraled into a full blown R&D project. Our team identified multiple areas across the protocol that needed improvements and have been working towards that goal. It's safe to say, we are on the very bleeding edge of this technology and it will be the biggest release for any CN project since 2014; reestablishing this project as the benchmark CN project for the foreseeable future.




Over the last 5 months, I've funded this project without any support from investors. I've mostly compensated contributors in BBR(XBB) but also BTC as needed (due to the lack of liquidity from exchange delisting). I've only received a small amount of donations totaling around 300BBR and .1BTC. That said, the team has grown to 10 developers, 5 cryptographers, 2 graphics designers and other contributors working on the project in a private repository. Cryptozoidberg has been working with us in an advisory position due to his current development obligations. As his schedule permits he will eventually be able to join our efforts full time. Despite some of your feelings towards Cryptozoidberg, he is a great asset to this project and his knowledge of CN is deeper than anyone else on this forum. In that sense he is the Satoshi of CN.


The delisting from the exchanges came at an unfortunate time. I tried getting the project re-listed on other exchanges, even willing to spend my own coin to achieve this but at the end of the day they (Hitbtc) only wasted our time by trying to extort 12 more BTC for a listing.. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as some users there are reporting multiple issues like funds stolen despite 2FA and other withdrawal issues.

The idea of a coinswap arose a few months ago as both a solution to adopting the new codebase and a way to establish a project development fund. The exchange situation made the idea of a coinswap more appealing given the amount of work involved with a hardfork. This means less funds are on centralized exchanges making a coinswap easier to facilitate. While details still need to be ironed out, it will most likely involve some portion of the swap going into a development fund managed by the dev team to make sure there is continued sustainability on that front given the size and scope of the project. While I would love to fund this project until the end of time, it's only fair to spread this burden across the entire community.


In the future, we will be revealing more details about the coinswap, the project and the new team. We'll also be releasing multiple white papers justifying the changes we've made to various aspects of the protocol. We still have a lot of testing and profiling to do before we can move towards a release. In the meantime, if you have funds on Bittrex or Poloniex please do your best to withdraw them if you plan participating in the coinswap. Bisq.io is in the process of adding a pairing so for those that want to trade support them by donating and using their platform. For now, all we can say is stay tuned for future announcements regarding the project.

Thanks alot clintar, glad to see this project is still alive and well!  I'm gonna keep a close eye to it!  See you on slack!

Hi, I've got a windows binary compiled that has the transaction key checking up at https://github.com/clintar/boolberry/releases/tag/v0.3a

To use the functionality, you need to be running a version of the wallet that has support for tx_key checking when making a transaction. Then to get the tx_key so that you can prove you sent it, you run which will give you a transaction key.
You can use the https://keycheck.mining.blue site to check or run from any wallet that supports the functionality. And run where the recipient address is the address you sent to. There is not any way to do this from gui yet. I'll be providing other binaries at that link, too.
  check_tx_key            Check amount going to

in
  get_tx_key              Get transaction key (r) for a given

Who is the developer? I checked out their github repo and they could really help propel this project!

Great to see the collaborative effort

Hoping in the future to help support some of the paid relistings, or purchase more Boolberry over the counter

Is there still a way to buy some BBR somewhere?

All sounds quite promising

Clintar has finished work on the arbitration tool (https://keycheck.mining.blue). We're just waiting for bisq.io integration and Boolberry trading can resume. If anyone wants to follow progress here is the link: https://forum.bisq.io/t/request-boolberry-bbr/651

In the meantime you will need to compile the latest source from https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry for the new functionality to work. If you use an old version of the wallet it wont generate the viewkey.

Cryptopia's investigation wasn't that thorough. We've had explorer.mining.blue/en/ up since July.


If they are having issues with a project they should of reached out to the community here. It's as simple as making a post, "Hey we're having an issue with [blank]. Can you resolve the issue? If not, we're going to delist the project."

Communication between vendors (coin projects) and businesses (exchanges) is a basic fundamental of any business ecosystem. They want $25,000 to relist BBR? Is that fee going towards the CEO's business school tuition?

Oh i saw Tidex site and a ban, WD immediately. What a crap, didt think it will bother them so much but obviously your contribution made some to think and price to plummet. Still nice talking live there.

Cryptozoidberg has reviewed the code and merged the PR into the main repo (https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/commit/8ecc5fcbcb9f12b4484e842c093172c81541c10b). Clintar is building an arbitration tool for the code then Boolberry should be up and running on bisq.io in no time.

Vadym, the CEO from https://stocks.exchange/ is adding a BBR pair. We'll update everyone as soon as it's online. Stocks.exchange is a relatively new exchange, so take that into consideration.

Ccex is an option too , 4btc to add directly or vote system

Its quite interesting how centralised exchanges have a urge of "protection" their clients from having sorts of they call "anomaly" in working coins. Since they had a problem with not enough interest to check how to "sync wallet" (though it should be exact written on boolbery site),

"active dev team" - the delivery part should matter, here i think BBR is infront from many coins listed on cryptopia (though it has no employed dev team from ICO, which BTW can wanish after better money quite fast), my opinion here is that BBR or any crypto, should be also a little driven by passion

At least you got some decent response from exchange.

Here is mine, took them "extreme response" mere fast only a fraction of time 14 days, from our mama and papa BIGALLMIGHTY BITTREX, on a detailed question, why and how can be delisting solved in staying:


Some funny guys there, it has a Thanks word.

* But we need some exchange right now, from https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/coinexchange/ i have an open offer for 1btc, can forward contact if needed,
 
* Still prefer Tidex (as it has nicer outfit, actually like trading there, can we overlook this MSD crapola there, if someone is so stupid to buy this, is kind of a taxation to have a brief lession of not having something such as, i dont know .... maybe its brain brains?)

*Coss could be an option https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/coss/


We could use some dancing from bbr

ah thats not good... i guess topia is out for now then.
