Topic: BiblePay | 10% to Orphan-Charity | RANDOMX MINING | Sanctuaries (Masternodes) - page 276. (Read 243437 times)

None of this is accurate though;  in reality, I called to remove the blacklist because I believed we would have an inrush of boinc miners, and that didn't pan out (that was done in the spirit of easy adoption also).  Writing POG is continuing the mission of easy adoption.  So these two things arent a sign of "insanity" HA ha....

As far as IPFS, make no mistake, Im super excited about it.  I have a whole suite of little ideas and tests (I have a whole DAHF block syncer in IPFS that we will not use) but what stays is Christian related - and these are not things to go in the trash.  Just because I'm currently working on POG in testnet doesn't mean IPFS or our roadmap is inaccurate.  I think IPFS is a future cornerstone for BiblePay, in many ways. 

We are working on stability!  This is happening right now.  If you want progress to be faster, send me a few more devs with 3+ years blockchain c++ experience.  Right now MIP is working full time on Dash commits - and has exceeded my expectations btw in every way, and I'm back to working full time now that I removed DAHF from BiblePay.

Also, God is answering our prayers; we have fasted and prayed for the stability of BiblePay.  He is leading us down paths of righteousness that are longer term paths that people with short term greed cannot fully understand at this time.

PODC difficulty is also increasing, these are good indicators for me

My guess is a ramp-up of difficulty,  our POW hashrate is much higher than its been.

Looks like we had a 12k difficulty block, that took 98mins to mine.

Although there is a lot of road ahead, the increase in volume is a good sign,

No, not me. But the move was rather simple to explain: the sell wall at 10 satoshi was lifted (could be the seller buying his own coins with 0.2% trade cost), and the remaining price levels did not really hold a lot of coins so a few hundred USD after 10 satoshi showed us the spike.

Such things happen. I will be excited and optimistic when I see buy walls @ 10,11 satoshis, not hit-and-runs like yesterday

any problem around block 87315? it takes eternity... 2hrs to jump to next block

As I have expressed to Rob in past communications, I am more aligned with PoW philosophy, which is the one that one took BTC from $0 to $19k.

This is what someone mentioned above: only what costs unforgeable effort adds real value.

This does not mean that we can't discuss and explore new concepts, I think it's better than doing nothing for months which is what you see on the other 99% altcoins.
In this sense, I really appreciate Rob's efforts.

Regarding Biblepay's rebase with Dash, status of code rebase is 64% of the command line daemon and client (QT UI will be left for later on).
I'm leaving miner stuff for the last phase to avoid rebasing code that might change.

After pure code rebase I see these tasks:
- Review with Rob all the biblepay code conficts with new Dash features (DIP2, 3, 4)
- Then try to compile biblepayd, biblepay-cli
- Create a workable devnet.
- Meanwhile in parallel start the QT rebase effort.
- When devnet is working, move on to testnet and check through the masternode migration plan, to test that each step is flowing fine.

Every task in this list will require considerable time and effort, but it will be well worth it I think.

I believe this is a good opportunity to jump on, and Im willing to help if no one else will

Sorry about my directness in the following sentences. I will most likely regret this opening, but I need to speak up.

This project seems to be one man show. Rob could be doing most profitable work when consentrating into development work. Instead he is here arguing over new concepts even there is dedicated people on project for answering in forums. If they cannot answer to questions based on information on wiki site, maybe wiki should be clarified.

Polls are created on the other forum and if the results is not as wanted then proposal is created on the sanctuaries where there is quaranteed success. I know it is not tehcnically quaranteed as there Rob does not own over half of sanctuaries, but in practice situation is different. This is bit of speculation as we do not know who owns sanctuaries, but for certain we know that some people have more than one sanctuary and they have stronger vote on sanctuaries than on forum. IMO Majority of people interested on this project will not have ever own sanctuary, so if sanctuaries are the place for decisions it will decision is not made by public opinion.

There is a constant flow of new concepts and ideas and they are tested even before polls, if made, are ended.

I feel thet people are bringing up their concerns about things, but concerns are shut down with questionable word choises.

Can anyone help with this?

Created a reddit post requesting help:

Ill create something if no one steps up the next few days

If you're not tech savvy, its not easy to set up BOINC and set up staking for BBP. BiblePay is trying to reach more people so the method to earn has to be simple. BOINC is very science oriented with tech people. I'm glad BiblePay is helping to contribute to cancer research. But we need a bigger audience than BOINC, because many of science oriented people are anti-religious and vehemently express their opinions in some channels. In some way BiblePay and BOINC is not a good fit. Of course, there are Christian science oriented individuals, they are a thin slice from BOINC I think.

PoDC going away will be done slowly if all goes as planned.

I remember IPFS was going to be used for some decentralized BiblePay content, but I'm not sure how much further bible_pay has gone with it. I was able to successfully upload pictures, videos, and other content to IPFS while paying BiblePay testnet. So, it is working, just not released to everyone.

You guys make a poll remove blacklist to call PODC commuinity to join + stake and now make a poll to kick them away....this going funny..coin.
How about your excited word for IPFS and now its nowhere.The lead dev dont bring to us the stability and trust for his idea ...it does not important what your concept.

Was that you pumping and dumping today? From 9 to to 19 back to 10 sats on good volume.

Not really sure what you mean by this?

POBH makes sense, and is easily explained to anyone that's mined before.

To piggyback, why not keep PODC as an option for those that don't like the tithe concept? If it's preferred to use POBH, then make the PODC rewards less proportionally. That way one can go the tithing route, or one can do PODC and accrue other coins/tokens simultaneously, if that's their interest.

Why even have PoG when you can get rid of PoDC and use PoBH exclusively? Just change the terms of mining rewards. PoBH distributes 100%. 90% goes to wallet and 10% of that goes to tithing as a split payment... isn't that true tithing where you give 10% of your earnings? Have it automatically solo mine with no biblepay.conf . All you need to participate it just keep the wallet running 24/7. The algorithm wouldn't be based on hash power but some other algorithm that is more equitable where you are rewarded for running the network.

I think everyone is tired of change. Motivation for investors is:
1. Stake
2. Masternode

The rest is worth nothing, unfortunately.

If anyone has a free 1 million usd, and wants to help charity, he will do it without a bbp coin.
If someone has 1usd free, he will do it differently.
We must attract people with proven solutions. We can not change again and again. Who will trust us

I never sold bbp but maybe it's good time to sell it. I watched and watched. Increasing the number of users is the key to success.

Stability.
Do not compare to the days when the BTC was 15-20k usd

Nothing to worry about, I can sell 100k now and we will be back to 8 Satoshi

Why has the price of BBP rocketed higher today at SouthXchange?

Now at 0.00000019 BTC.

Look on the bright side: we are discussing a possible algorithm change openly with people pointing out potential exploits and challenges. It is like a board meeting with nothing paid to consultants

I am against POG in general since it sounds like a lottery (with somewhat predictable results and a definite profit in the end of the day) which reduces the cost of minting coins. When you tithe 300 BBP and get 4800 BBP (more or less, according to a calculation based on 100k BBP tithe cap and 1.6M BBP emission per day), you have no reason to be picky about the market price to sell them. Most people will just dump these easy earnings for BTC. My personal belief and experience is that nothing without effort and pain behind it holds any value. PODC is hard work and pain (if you are not just renting out cloud servers).

We should keep discussing, not until consensus, but until a clear majority of opinion. My biggest worry at the moment is that the progress seems to be too fast. We had a vote in the forum that ended with the rejection of POG. A bit too quickly, POG-2 was put on the table with another poll for it (which is going towards rejection of it again, by the way); and then over a quick public talk between Togo and Rob we now have a masternode proposal being voted. Why the rush? I mean, the bear market is not going anywhere, and we are already close to rock bottom. Even junk coins with no features or future potential have 200kUSD market cap, and we are a bit above that (despite all the pros and provable charity associated with BBP). It's not like we will self-destruct if we continue things as they are, right?
