Rob,

The diff has been dropping steadily as you ramped up ABN, it's down to 1500 now (was 2500 not too long ago).

Is the target still 10k diff, or did I miss-read that.


After looking at the govobj data it appears the fork(s) were more aligned with the sanctuary situation than ABN.

So it is not as important to stay at 10K at this very moment, but know that I am making a report for the pool now to store the ABN and corresponding diff level- and I am watching it closely.

We may lower the requirement a tiny bit to get closer to 3K diff if diff doesn't rise in the next few hours. 



Thanks for staying on top of this Rob.. Not an easy task to properly asses the correct ABN level but I for one feel like you have been making the proper adjustments to get us to the potential end goal!

I did set the spork to recommend that new sancs (70734) no longer vote for payments for prior versions.
(This means everyone on 70732 and 70733 should see the sanctuary payments start to diminish now, unless you upgrade).

Hi,
I didn't get a mandatory upgrade notification in the mailing list.

Ill ask SX to re-open once we see more upgrade and see today's contract pay properly.

I increased our ABN weight to 5K as diff is hovering around 20K.




Looks like ABN weight went up to 25k a few hours ago and is now up to 50k.  All my BBP are locked up in SX so I can't withdraw the necessary funds until the wallet reopens.  Time to go watch the paint dry....    Cheesy


Edit - now it's up to 85k.  Are you just adjusting it to hit a sweet spot with the difficulty or is it going up on it's own somehow?

Rob and MIP,

You aware that the SouthXchange wallet is offline right now?

SX, CX, and Chainz have been notified.

Once we see 75% of our sancs on 70734, we can open back up

Rob notified the exchanges about the fork that occurred earlier,
Masternodes have a mandatory upgrade to v1.4.3.9 now

I did set the spork to recommend that new sancs (70734) no longer vote for payments for prior versions.
(This means everyone on 70732 and 70733 should see the sanctuary payments start to diminish now, unless you upgrade).

Unfortunately, I see that only a couple upgraded over night.  Hopefully not getting paid will convince them to upgrade.

The current contract is looking a little better but we still need more to upgrade for complete health.

Ill ask SX to re-open once we see more upgrade and see today's contract pay properly.

I increased our ABN weight to 5K as diff is hovering around 20K.

** CAMEROON ONE LIMITED TIME MATCHING FUNDS ON NEW ORPHANS **

Cameroon one has an anonymous donor who is going to match any funds spent on new orphans (til the end of the year).
I have been informed this will be available for new POOM miners (in a few months when we go live, pending the outcome of the poll).

If anyone wants to sponsor a home orphan right now outside of biblepay with the matching funds, contact:
Anna with CameroonONE <[email protected]>

Global giving match:
https://www.globalgiving.org/recurring-donations-matched/

Its $40.00 USD per month to sponsor a new orphan.

(I am going to sponsor some myself).


** Cameroon accepts BiblePay and BTC now also! **

** Donations ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE ! **

===

I'm working with Pastor Joshua from Hope For Orphans Center in Kenya:
http://pool.biblepay.org/SAN/Mission/HopeForOrphansCenterKenya.pdf

We are evaluating a potential relationship.
His organization takes care of 26 orphans, mostly kids who had a parent that was diagnosed with HIV and they dumped the child in the streets or stopped feeding the child.

His org is in dire need of cash, so I told him we will evaluate potentially picking up some of the children.

If anyone wants to do due diligence with Joshua or his org please check them out and inform me if you find anything out of the ordinary.

Joshuas helper is making some BIO's for us to show how committed they are to integrating with us.

** Kairos Childrens Fund accepts BiblePay **

If you want to sponsor a home child with Kairos using BBP, please contact Andrew:
Kairos Children's Fund <[email protected]>


We are working together now to create Orphan Bios for Home sponsors.

Pastor Andrew from Kairos Childrens fund is asking if we would like to have a banner at his 3 day national conference in the Philipines:

These are the packages that we are offering. Check out our website at vismin.winnegor.org
$100 : We will have 2 banners outside the hotel during the 3 day event. One more banner inside.
          The logo and tagline will be at the bottom, small, but readable from the back of the room or across the road

$50 : We will distribute small brochure about your company or product along with the packet that we give them at the beginning of the event.

$50 : We will also post a logo under 'sponsored by' on the website, with a link to the Biblepay website.

$50 : We will have your company or product mentioned at the beginning of the 1st session every day. (as a great cryptocurrency for christians.)
         + $25 : Your business / product will be announced as a major sponsor of the event

* If time permits, I will discuss biblepay with interesting people and pastors.

* We are thinking of
 - http://www.facebook.com/wimdgte
 - http://www.winnegor.org

Is anyone here interested in creating the banner for us (in graphics software) and the pamphlet, and spearheading the message for the banner and the pamphlet (if we go with all 4 above packages from our PR budget proposal)?

** TestNet Update **

We are ready to start testing in our TestNet thread again!

Please participate:

https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=391.new#new


NOTE:  We did the grunt work in testnet to get it syncing, so it should be relatively safe to participate now.

Please help test the next version.

Note2:  Thank you to all who are writing to the orphans, I see a few new letters being voted on!

Can we have some help in TestNet please?

https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=391.new#new


We are close to testing Cameroon One, and I would like good coverage of the Dash 0.14 branch features also.

**** SANCTUARY MANDATORY UPGRADE REQUIRED TODAY ****

1.  Due to 40% of our network still running the old incompatible protocol version (70732)
which caused a fork overnight, we must ask everyone to upgrade to 70734 immediately.  
This is BiblePay v1.4.3.9.  https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay-evolution/commits/master
2.  I have set the enforcement spork requiring all sanctuaries to be on 70734 as of later today.
3.  Sanctuaries who do not upgrade will start to lose payments (the upgraded sancs will vote against the old sancs).
4.  Older sancs who do not upgrade will automatically fall out of the GSC quorum (therefore they will not hurt BiblePay in a negative way) after this setting is enabled.

To Sancs:

Just to clarify all, any of you who upgraded your sancs over the last 10 days or so, you do not need to upgrade if you are on 70734 (regardless of the biblepay version #).

Type 'getinfo' and see the protocolversion to find out (from a sanc).

Also, any individual miner/user who is on the short chain, to find out if you are on the wrong chain:

getblockhash 128510
53a832eee6d4120be9ab84cb34747b6cf59878c50c1f96eb30d12d104508cea1

If your hash does not match, please clean your data files directory, deleting everything except wallet.dat and restart.
Or restart with -erasechain=1

Please vote on if we should re-enable ABN with a lower requirement:

Was ABN turned back on recently?  I was mining fine for a few days without any ABN errors and then I get this error when I getmininginfo:

(Create Transaction) Insufficient funds.::TargetWeight=1995, UsingBBP=408.00, I=25, NeededWeight=1000, GotWeight=0.00; Unable to Create ABN: CreateABN::Fail::(Create Transaction) Insufficient funds.::TargetWeight=1995, UsingBBP=408.00, I=25, NeededWeight=1000, GotWeight=0.00; ",

Thanks!

Oh, sorry, when I woke up this morning, and saw all the positive votes for ABN, I was going to set it to 1000.

Then I saw our Sanc situation and thought I set it to zero, but it looks like the command didnt actually execute.

I set ABN to zero, please wait about 4 more blocks and we should see it at zero again.

Thanks, sorry for the inconvenience.

After adjusted by your action, my pc mining is resumed to normal. Look like is a ABN issue...
anyways, thanks.

One more things , in the POBH mining mode, the usage of CPU is down to 0% now.
It seems need a transition period to fix.

Does your chain currently match this one:
getblockhash 128510
53a832eee6d4120be9ab84cb34747b6cf59878c50c1f96eb30d12d104508cea1
As Im currently mining right now.

 

confirmed #128510 blockhash in 1.4.3.9 version: 53a832eee6d4120be9ab84cb34747b6cf59878c50c1f96eb30d12d104508cea1

I don't know when happen, I am trying to reindex the wallet now.

After reindex, still not resolved.

./biblepay-cli getblockhash 128522
3534bf2a0c9c28d7d750e786c0fe7f74984753ae0527df86a64167881df35663


You are on the correct chain now.

Mining problem was probably unrelated - as ABN has been off for about 24 hours.
