Please vote for BBP to be listed on mintnodes shared masternode service.

Only 1$ per month per masternode.

So with GIN I still hold the funds, so that is cool,

Turns out GIN has a big blue support button in the bottom right of every page,
I couldnt see it because of PrivacyBadger Chrome Extension I was using (developed by EFF to block spying ads and invisible trackers)

I got messaged back by support immediately

So Watchman is a subset of Sentinel?

Yes, watchman our version of sentinel.  They can try sentinel on BiblePay, but it might not work due to the govobj string message names in biblepay, but it is worth a shot.

If masternodes are easier to setup that means more people will sign up for BiblePay and stake 1.55M

A one-click masternode setup script is almost ready so you will see your wish come true in he coming days.


MIP is creating a one-click Sanctuary setup script for the VMS side.  (Considering the one-click part as setting up the entire VMS side).  In this iteration the user still needs to copy the sanctuary key over to the controller wallet and add it to the masternode.conf file.  (Maybe in the future, if requested we will automate the entire process).

Great job MIP!

We will test this script in test next and update everyone when its ready to release.

If IPFS & Watchmen are required, will that create enough difficulty that third party will not want to work with BiblePay and hosting masternodes?

I think we need a volunteer to test out GIN, as I don't see mintnodes running watchman-on-the-wall.
I believe the mintnode is not going to pay a reward...

I'll try GIN in a couple days after I verify mintnodes will not work for us.

If no one else steps up, I can jump on this

"0.50 USD in GIN will be deducted from your account balance daily for the platform hosting fee"
https://p.gincoin.io

Asked me to send the 1550001 to myself, and give the transaction number

I was rejected b/c I didnt have any GIN in my account, had to buy GIN on CryptoBridge,
In order to deposit the GIN I had to enter my name and country

NOTE: I noticed GIN has a Shared Masternodes tab, and its grayed out and tooltip says Coming Soon

Dashboard >>> Create Node >>> Select Biblepay >>> Enter Transaction Number >>>
Status loading bar screen, stuck on "Installing node", then stuck on "Syncing blockchain", (status: "Waiting collateral transaction confirmations").

I noticed I dropped from 3 GIN to 2.82 GIN

I had to open and add a line to masternode.conf file and restart wallet,
then I had to run masternode start command, but my wallet was locked, so just did it through sanctuary tab

(status: Waiting start)..

Gave me details page, Im in WATCHDOG_EXPIRED state

TANGENT NOTE: Ever since I ballooned my wallet to 1 million keys, sometimes it takes a few minutes for my passphrase to go through after clicking ok and BiblePay wallet is just stuck in Not Responding state LOL

I went to bed and then just checked again, Im still in WATCHDOG_EXPIRED state

I could not find a way to contact GIN, they only had an FAQ page,
I had to go back to main website (masternodes are on a different subdomain) and found an email address

I also reached out to them in the #support channel of their Discord,
Are they running into similar issue as Mintnodes?
Sorry to see you going through this Togo...  I'm sure you will get your money back if it fails.  

What's kind of sad, is I feel we may have a very bright future with IPFS, and one of the options for leasing PODS out in the future is having our Sancs run IPFS.  However, if our Sancs are hard to manage now even with just Watchman, imagine what would happen if we require them to run IPFS.  

In this scenario we would enforce non-payment for Sancs who do not run IPFS.  

1 million private keys?  LOL.  Thats cool, but I think you might have to send all that BBP to a new wallet and start over LOL.  

EDIT: Our 2 Sancs on mintnodes are still Enabled now, I think hes running watchman now.  They will probably payout soon, no payments yet.

Remember all, I'm here for the best interests of biblepay.  The last thing I want to do is anger everyone by killing GIN and mintnodes (by proposing a required IPFS), but this is the type of decision we have to endure with growing pains, and at this point (thinking of the future roadmap) Im leaning 75% towards requiring a design With IPFS running in the sancs, until the potential day exists where we slate in an IPFS miner.  This would mean losing GIN & Mintnodes, unless mintnodes goes the extra mile and adds IPFS into the mix like they did watchman.

Do we have an official list of teams that will be blacklisted once the team requirement is removed?

If you want other people to join BiblePay, I don't think we should blacklist any teams for earning. Even if GridCoin users want to earn BiblePay, they still need to stake 20 BBP per 1 RAC. If the PoDC payouts are severely affected by new users, then the economics will shift where ByteBall payout is better. So, then there may be a balancing act between the two teams until being on either team is about the same.

More people join BiblePay team than leave:
https://stats.free-dc.org/teambycpid/stats.php?page=teamnewusers&team=Biblepay

https://stats.free-dc.org/teambycpid/stats.php?page=teamoldusers&team=Biblepay

The outcome remains to be seen, so I'm in more of a let's wait and see stance.

Thank you so much, I will jump on this and buy the necessary for the 100% rewards. I hope it wont take forever. I have a question though, regarding the biblepay.conf, the workerid should be my wallet id, or a worker created in pool.biblepay.org? I have seen contradictory suggestions.

for pool.biblepay.org, you need to add a workerid first on their web site.
the pool resembles most to MPOS. Once you add a workerid on pool.biblepay.org that is what you put in biblepay.conf

purepool.org (yiimp pool style) is easier. It is anonymous and you just your wallet receive address as the workerid -- purepool is simpler and that's what I recommend you use.


When will pool.biblepay.org become a normal website?? It is something terrible and user total unfriendly.
In my opinion, your continual attacks here are not Christian but instead mean spirited.  In addition your posts make be believe it is user error.

Therefore, I have no reason to believe there is a problem.
Can you try to look past the tone, and look for the heart of the message?


Matthew 13:15 English Standard Version (ESV)
Code:
15 For this people's heart has grown dull,
    and with their ears they can barely hear,
    and their eyes they have closed,
lest they should see with their eyes
    and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
    and turn, and I would heal them.’
Amen, this is a perfect message for everyone who has attacked BiblePay without reason, in such a judgemental way.

I think we should make more positive and succinct posts from now on.

Please take it to heart everyone.

Do you agree pool.biblepay.org could be easier to use and needs a make-over?

Im still having troubles in purepool miner statistics. It grew to

Invalid_CPID    Default    36
Illegal_CPID    Default    17

I think the problem is, from exec totalrac:

 "Note": "You have less stake balance available than needed for the PODC UTXO Target.  Coins must be more than 5 confirmations deep to count.  See coin control.",
  "Threshhold to receive 10% rewards (below this UTXO Amount rewards are lost)": 1164.3,


I have a thousand BBP, so at this moment I wont be getting any BBP right? An also, even if I compute, I won't get to the point of entering the 10% reward range. So, probably, I need to go to an stakin pool.

Please confirm both things, the error, and the stakin.

Yes you are right, it seems like right now you have way too little stake balance for too much computing power. The normal way would be to reduce the computing power on BOINC to lower your RAC, then wait until you get some payments. The moment you get payments, that's when all the errors on the pool should disappear. Then when your balance is growing you can increase your hash power towards BOINC again.
The other possibility is of course to buy some BBP on an exchange. Right now it's really cheap and you shouldn't have to pay too much USD (or whatever) to get you started.

However, to speed things up we could make an exception and you could just post a receiving address here and I'll send you some BBP so you can get started. Wink




Edit: On mintnodes there are now 2 MN installed and they both show "enabled". Can someone explain why they shouldn't get any rewards? To me everything looks in order ...

PS: As I am not registered in BBP exchanges, I think it will take a while. Could someone sell me like 15$ BBP? I have some BTC in coinbase or I can pay in regular money (€ for example).

Since POBH (POW) mining pays 90% less than PODC mining, imho, I recommend genproclimit=1 and minersleep=10 - this should reduce you down to 1% CPU.
You will still solve an occasional block because POBH is designed to have a propensity to reward cpids that have not solved a block.

Did you mean
Code:
minersleep=990
?

I e-mailed them, they currently run a generic "sentinel", they are looking at running watchman now.


Wow, thanks.



You are welcome.  I was told yesterday watchman was up and running.

Both MN's for mint are showing ENABLED now on the mintnodes site, but I don't see them in the wallet.  I just asked if their address in their UI is different than the payment address.

Jesus is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
My wallet is using 13% of my CPU load ( [email protected]) with genproclimit 6
Boinc is using 84% with 100% maximum load use in settings ( 50/50 RAH,WCG )
(Last percent goes for other windows task)

Should I reduce the work load of my wallet and set genproclimit to 1 to get the maximum power for BOINC and RAC score or wallet mining is important too ?
In the case that's important, how do i manage to balance everything ?
Thanks you

So far mintnodes shows 2 ENABLED masternodes, with 0 rewards.  But they don't show watchdog_expired yet so lets see if they pay within the next 48 hours.

I've started to wonder if you're interepreting things as mean-spirited...  I believe some of this may be a language barrier. 

You cannot expect a non-native speaker to have the communication ability of a native speaker.

Just the same,  you cannot and should not judge a non-believer by Believer's standards.

Can you try to look past the tone, and look for the heart of the message?

I agree the pool site is "functional" but I don't find it appealing, I think it could do with a makeover.  I get this is not a priority right now, with the new source uploaded to github maybe someone from the community could take it up?



This isn't the place to publically argue about what you believe is right or wrong in your own subjective ways;  I'm not proposing we make this forum into a public spectacle.

Work it out among each other - PM SVK Noko and gather his requirements, and set up the changes in a github change request.
