I've got a few questions and suggestions about orphan letters here. I'm wondering if letters that don't reach 7 upvotes are leaving children without letters because it says needwritten false but letters to them are not going through, is there a number of downvotes in place to get rid of letters to ensure orphans are being written to? I see some letters with double digit down votes. Also, I was unaware that I had at times been writing to orphans who had sent us letters already and failed to mention their comments or remark on the lovely pictures they are sending, perhaps there could be a separate tab for orphans who have started correspondence with their personal details and their letters in one place, and a separate tab for those who are yet to send us anything? Not that looking through the inbound letters list is difficult but for clarity and simplicity it may be better, especially as the number of sponsored orphans increases.

I feel like God Node is a bit irreverent...just my .02. What about Divine Node or Providence Node?

What was the address for the 2nd pool? How difficult is it to set up a pool? I have a bunch of spare computers.

Yeah, agreed, so far Master Sanctuary and Temple arent too bad, but not as catchy as God Node... Hmmm... Lets keep thinking of runners up.

HPS1 is what the client tells the pool the speed of the node is, HPS2 is how the pool measures you.
The reason we havent removed #1 yet is with the algo changes in f8000 coming it will be useful to see the changes for debug purposes.

The hps2 should be stable over longer than 30 mins.  Each round is about 15 mins, and hps2 is how many shares your node has solved in the current round.

Yes, let me know your email at [email protected] if you are not approved.

I personally would prefer something like 'Master Sanctuary', but that's because I'm a bit reserved in using the word 'God'.

Im still not quite understanding HPS1 and HPS2. My hps1 is pretty stable while HPS2 varies greatly.

Or maybe a "Temple" ?

Is it decided how many BBP to run a sanctuary?

Thanks, well although we have a lot of spinning plates right now and things are going well behind the scenes (F8000 is almost ready for testing in testnet, you can be awarded a colored coin in testnet, check your retirement balance, send 401k coins to yourself and book a trading order for retirement coins), a brand new idea has surfaced today that is very positive related to ecommerce and master-sanctuaries (Or God Nodes).  I will be going into detail with it soon to help forge its usefulness.

In the mean time, what is the general feeling about the term "God Node"?  Background: The sanctuaries are our brand of masternodes.  These allow us to be decentralized, and the sanctuary operators may vote on current issues to alleviate decisions from being made by biblepay-central (IE the community can run itself).  To provide more valuable features to the blockchain, I am planning on adding a hierarchical level above the sanctuary, for whale investors who happen to be highly technically savvy.  Right now, I think the requirement of the "whale" is something like 15 million BBP, and the whale would need to run a copy of the pool on a high power server (Kind of like if MinersForMen's background pool node staked 15 million escrow, then NSummy would be a God Node).  On a side note, the reason these requirements are forming, is because its starting to appear that the ecommerce/market making/and accountability site of biblepay-central may run on the chosen God Node.  Basically, the idea is our sanctuaries would run a DNS server, and become the phonebook to resolve outside HTTP traffic to the current God Node.  (The God Node is one node that is chosen by the sanctuaries as a "winner" to service HTTP traffic for one hour at a time).  Once DNS is updated, outside traffic coming in to accountability site would be routed to the God Node.  The God Node would also run a pool, simply because the God Node software would get synced in and auto-updated through the pool github code automatically as it changes, using the SFTP syncing system.  There is a huge
 additional technological feature that Im going to describe in detail over the next week related to ecommerce that the God Node would facilitate, so the users from the command line could execute the commands.

I am wondering, is it wrong to call the chosen God Node a God Node?  Should it be a Master sanctuary?  Any better terms?  If its not blasphemous, we could call it a God Node.

The God Node puts up 10-15* the escrow as a normal sanctuary, but is remunerated at the same commensurate level (IE if escrow is 10*, the reward is 10*), so they technically dont get any better treatment than individual sanctuaries, but they give us the ability to run locked processes.  They also auto-update their code, whereas normal sanctuaries must upgrade.

Hi Ed,
That EVP_CIPHER_CTX is a constant in openssl.  Most likely your ubuntu box has an older version of openssl already on it so it is not preferring the new version.  We have been compiling with open ssl 101k.  Could you please try looking on this page:
https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/master/doc/build-unix.md

For the openssl dependency, re-apt-install it and then try compiling again?


Good luck.

I was wondering the same thing, but I see someone just jumped in and bought a lot.
Still trying to talk my wife into buying, shes a whale.  I think shes going to move the market when she buys.

(Its not that she doesnt like the idea, shes busy running her business).

Hi Mass,

Here is the latest version of the whitepaper:

http://pool.biblepay.org/Docs/BiblePay_White_Paper.pdf

It has to change slightly at Christmas for the f8000 enhancement.

i have at least 4 wallets though.. if most miners do as well thats around 1800 users. Seems accurate. We are growing and that is great. Once sanctuaries are live, marketing can ramp up. I have some pretty techy contacts in Christian orgs like Lifechurch in OK

great work Dev, 616 and Togo... all those involved.

We are bout to reach 7,000 live nodes?

Is this correct?

Holly Molly! Your idea is mind-blowing, guys 

Very confused to see relatively large BBP sales during it being nearly tied for it's record low, far outweighing purchases. Seems very irrational, especially when it's shown to be periodically traded higher. I've been buying in at these prices Just traders getting cold feet? Flight to BTC pre fork? Or an attempt to devalue it and buy back in? Any opinions? I'm new to exchanges and trading so I'm probably missing something here.
Edit:Seeing some weight on the other side of the scale since I posted this, good to see

The block reward varies a bit on difficulty, but right now it averages about 15,000 if my math is right.  You say you dropped at out 20 something.  Not sure if you mean block 2000 or so, or if you mean price 20 satoshi or block reward (which when it started was 20K but due to difficulty rarely hit that on average).  Right now, unless you've got pretty cheap power, you're looking at mining for the health of the coin or future gains.  The daily "profit" from mining is pretty low or negative depending on your power usage and cost.  But mining helps keep the coin moving forward.  So now is a good time to re-enter!

No, this coin is still CPU only.

What is the current block reward? I dropped out at 20 something and still waiting for re-entry. Any advice on a good re-entry point?
