Perhaps we can start a discussion on the forum to see which distributed computing project to support and then hold a poll to decide.

rosetta no new tasks

The petro-yuan oil contract starts trading tomorrow:
https://oilprice.com/Geopolitics/International/China-Prepares-Death-Blow-To-The-Dollar.html

It will be interesting to see what this does for cryptocurrencies.  I personally think its bullish for cryptos and bearish for the USD.

Its also interesting that Trump is accelerating the move of the embassy to May 14, 2018; Exactly Seventy Years of Independence for Israel, One Biblical Generation since the Israeli Declaration of Independence, A people who have been exiled from their homeland two thousand years before.. now living safely in a land of 'walled' villages (the Palestinian border wall, with 4000 rockets per week, etc), they are clearly living in the land of milk and honey, but not in a land of Unwalled villages with a peace agreement yet.  So what has to happen between the end of this generation and Daniels 70th week?  Some event, possibly after leveling Damascus, has to cause the creation of a peace agreement that causes the Palestinian & Israel borders to come down, then Ezekiel 38 can be fulfilled.

Trust me, it's valid. The daily 2.6M payout was for the daily PODC-superblock, and has nothing to do with the sanctuary payouts. You can easily calculate the ROI yourself when you look at the blockchain.

Take the - currently - latest block for example:
http://explorer.biblepay.org:3001/tx/08a5ea36906be74c9bba5fb7a490805fa8b04f5969e233212b0bca1afe0358f0

You can see that 4863 BBP is generated that goes to a Sanctuary. There is a block every 7 minutes, that means there are about 205 blocks every day. So that's a total of about a million BBP that goes to the sanctuaries every day. There are currently 180+ sanctuaries, but not all are enabled. So let's say 165 enabled masternodes. Devide that million by 165, and we get a value of about 6200 BBP per day.

This is a very rough calculation, and the amount of BBP in each block also depends on the difficulty, but you can see that the number on biblepay-central is not far off. I can also say for myself that I'm getting an average of 1+ block per day.

You can trust the math, although they are approximations.

Is this ROI calculator still valid?
Seems to be based on the erroneous daily payout of 2.6M - now corrected to 1.2M
That would tie in with Rob's figues og 5k every 2 days.

Thx for your feedback, I will do the changes tomorrow

android tasks are still available

hmm whats now? do we have backup plan while new tasks will be available? :DDD

Just checked the added section and it looks great. It is simple and concise but contains important information that will be needed by the people going there. I noticed some typographical errors or grammatically incorrect words that are easy to go unnoticed but would make a great difference if edited properly. Here are those:

• "You are now early done" - make it nearly
• "You don't need to spent the coins" - make it spend
• If you statistic is visible yet, - your and isn't

rosetta done no new tasks for us

we need AIDS or LYME DISEASE

Things I came across (some are just personal preferences):

Without that, you will receive only a smaller reward

This is done to prevent strong Botnets to overtake the Mining and harm all others, but it makes it a little bit harder for new miners to start mining.

Your work in Rosetta@home is counted in RAC, a credit system used by Rosetta@home itself.

If you statistic isn't visible yet, please wait another day.


Further remarks:
1. Maybe have a sentence about staking in the 'The Basics' section, so people know about this before they install.
2. I like the 'Proof of Power Mining' section you added
3. Maybe add a little explanation that they have to add the line 'utxoamount=X' in their biblepay.conf file (I know it's just temporary, so maybe you don't have to bother, but it's the way it's done right now).
4. I sent you a PM a few days ago with other little things I came across in other sections

Just quoting myself for visibility. Some of my research-computers are beginning to run dry on tasks. It doesn't matter now. But some time ago there also weren't any new Android-tasks for a while. So, looking into the future, it might be good to have a backup-project, just in case.

I know it is already part of the plan to have alternatives to Rosetta@home, and we also have a fallback plan (to fall back on pure PoBH-mining if needed), so I'm just going to see how this is going to develop

I added a Section about Staking in the Biblepay Mining How-To of Biblepay-Central:
https://www.biblepay-central.org/en/mining-how-to/staking-and-statistics/

Can anybody proof-read it? I tried to keep it simple, but is it enough? Or should I write more? (is it right at all? )

No, you don't need 500K BBP to be able to mine (in the case of 20 BBP per RAC), but if you have less, your payout will fall accordingly. So, for example, if you only stake 250K BBP, you'll get about 50% of the payout you'd receive if you would stake 500K BBP.

I really, really like how the Monero website is put together. If we could just rip that website and replace everything 'Monero' with 'Biblepay', I'd be a happy camper. It looks professional and easy to understand. No big blocks of text and a modular layout.

I also really like the FAQ: an nice question/answer layout for people that want to know more about the things that are being said on the main website.

I have now 25 k RAC. So this proposal  means i need  500k BPP just to be able to continue mining BPP after 1 April?   

"So the problem I am trying to tackle with our website, is trying to make our messaging clear and simple
and appeal to those that know nothing or very little about cryptocurrency and help educate them

For example, think if Compassion, BLOOM or CameroonONE or a Church linked our website to their audience,
would any of them know what a block time is, or what ASIC-Resistant means, or what a Masternode is?

At most maybe some have heard of Bitcoin, but probably very few actually own any Bitcoin and even less own or know about altcoins.
So we have a very large uneducated crypto audience we want to appeal to."

For the initial contact.
Make the message more Christian and general:

Maybe something like:-

You have heard of crypto currencies and you would like to know more.
Take a look at Biblepay - a truly Christian crypto coin - which has goal of promoting charity, cancer research and spreading the word.

for technical stuff  - read on..........

So we have a very large uneducated crypto audience we want to appeal to.

We have crypto Miners, Day/Swing Traders, Investors, and then we have the general public.

So I think its best to make the landing page non-technical and highlight our main non-technical features
and give paths for the crypto uneducated to learn more and paths for the already crypto educated to dive into the technical details.

Our main non-technical features/highlights in my eyes are:  10% Charity, Cancer Research, and Spreading Christianity

And then more technically, we have the
Coin Specification (block time, number of coins, Biblehash algorithm, ASIC-Resistant, CPU Only, emissions rate, reward breakdown),
Masternodes (Decentralized Governance, Proposals, Voting, Monthly Budget, InstantSend, PrivateSend),
and Mining (POW, Cancer Research)

Ive analyzed over 15+ crypto websites and most of them are pretty bad at appealing to newcomers,
they assume the user already has a ton of crypto knowledge, and they throw too much information at users too quickly
and arent clear in what they are. (Bitcoin and Monero both did a bit of a better job appealing to newcomers)

https://getmonero.org/

Anyways, would love feedback on what you guys think,
Im definitely not a web designer but this is my mockup so far:  http://54.213.89.10

Our current website: https://www.biblepay.org/

Also any general website feedback you can give here in "Website Enhancements & Suggestions" section on the BiblePay Forum:

A month ago or so, Amanda B Johnson, spokesperson of Dash, cancelled her contract working with a PR firm after 3 months and basically gave up trying to spread the word of DASH to the general public / news outlets and is now doing a Youtube show and targeting the /r/Cryptocurrency subreddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/dashpay/comments/7zjptw/update_and_path_forward_from_amanda_b_johnson/

"I assumed the most fertile ground for spreading DASH awareness was among the crypto un-initiated. I thought that DASH would do well to try to get its name out there to newbs in the midst of growing cryptocurrency awareness.

I was wrong. Or rather, just not as right as I should have been.

Most of the un-initiated reporters I’ve been talking to over the last few months pretty much only want to know the supposed reasons for Bitcoin price movements, and whether their readers should buy it. When I steer the conversation toward DASH, it just leaves them even more confused than they already are. They can’t wrap their heads around one crypto, much less the fact that there are many and why DASH is best at so many things.

[...]

I now believe that the most fertile ground for DASH is -- for example -- amongst readers of r/cryptocurrency. That is, people who already own one or more crypto and likely trade on exchanges. Because they’re using exchanges, these people see their options and definitely know that DASH is among them."

Your wallet needs to be online for it to be able to send PODC-updates. If your wallet can't send updates for some time, you won't be included in the next superblock (a PODC-update is valid for max 24 hours if I'm right).

If you don't want a second computer online at all time you could also run the wallet on the same linux VPS as Boinc is on, but I would strongly discourage that.

I am a newbie, my boinc is in a linux VPS. Do I need to run my controller windows wallet 24hrs to get PODC payment? Or the payment will come once my windows wallet is online?

Thanks!
