Another quick'n'dirty mock up from Crouton's Lunchbreak Factory, of how our assets might be displayed once distribution by tender is implemented:

The big white space might one day soon display an advert. Before you all mutiny and throw up over the idea of in-wallet advertising, consider that any ad revenue is going to be contributing directly to the numbers up above, ie. how much your BCR is worth. Advertisers want to monetise our userbase, we'll monetise them right back.

And we can have an option to turn the ads off if your BCR balance is > xxx BCR or something.

what has me floored is the logic, and the consensus.

Well, for this.. I am unsure also.. I can simply throw probably stupid stuff into the air.... anything that could already be supported by chain techs would be the ideal. But that would just complicate your work. Maybe it's best to start dropping some ideas and draft on google some public ideas?

But how do we factor in economic activity for which standard tx fees does not apply?

This one was regarding a factor for bank reward of mined blocks. Not sure if I am saying something un-logic due not knowing majority of the source code.

The most difficult part is getting every node to agree on the bidding amounts. I will have to make this a very core part of the consensus, perhaps use the same logic for blocks

Arrange for a pool vote? To check opinion...

yeah probably. ideas?

- I liked the idea of the gradual bigger amounts for higher services. (the pool would be nice to scan the target effort(bid) which the community is interested)
- I think the IP isolation should honour more nodes over unique addresses (banknodes) compared with multiple ones behind the same address. Does not make sense to promote a node that is simply using the same IP address as other couple of them.
- Honour uptime as a logarithmic function and data per second/hour/day as a proportional function to define fees (average both at the end):
T = uptime of banknode
D = average transferred bytes/day (count only after synchronized blockchain)
F = transaction fee factor of the bank node
F = ( log(T) + D*(transaction weight) ) / 2

Certainly out of the box. I think that this may actually tie in with doesntmatter's earlier suggestion. The math is definitely interesting, i'll try write a quick sim, but what has me floored is the logic, and the consensus. But how do we factor in economic activity for which standard tx fees does not apply?

Slightly wordier version of crouton's "PoW is imbecilic" rant: http://motherboard.vice.com/read/bitcoin-is-unsustainable

BCR needs to get mining shifted to BNs as a non-competitive process and implement distribution by tender ASAP.

Working on it. just needed a bit off time.

Added a few new simple themes, with repainted logo image and About icons. You need to restart the wallet for them to take effect. They persist until changed.

eg. purple (bitcreditscc likes purple)

eg. green (hack_ said he likes green)

If you've put your BN addresses in mybanknodes.txt then you also get a colour co-ordinated banknode list:

Built in choices are orange, dark/orange, blue, green, pink, purple, turquoise. You can still load your own custom .qss file if you want by sticking your own 'theme=/path/to/theme' line in your bitcredit.conf. I have set the default to orange, for no particular reason.

If none of these fruity options please you, you can find the qss files in the git repo - get creative, and it you come up with something nice please share it so I can include it with the client for everyone to marvel at.

@dragos - they should all work out of the box now, no need to bundle the qss files separately with the linux binary.

Hope all this stuff works on Windows too.

Still hoping someone will come up with some content for the Help-pages, haven't had time to put anything together myself yet. Borrowing DASH guides and modifying them for BCR is perfectly acceptable... Grin

Pools online , git updated. I'm guessing he missed an update, there is code slated for a hard fork , i pushed it back to 200000.

good work, sent the passwords you need. I'm back but full work starts in the evening

Did the world end at block 150000? Tongue

Seems pools are down and since there is no solo miner that I know of we are at a standstill. I believe the pts-getwork crashes the latest version now.

checking. bcr is offline tending to some personal business so i will deal with this.

How do we redirect the miner to your pool, isnt it locked to either 1 or 2?

Thanks,

In hosts file add:

Code:

Having trouble setting up a banknode. Finding several variations of the instructions. Does anyone have a write up of simple to follow instructions for setting up the banknode and vpn.

Also new wallet will sync but when I exit and restart is bombs out. Have tries resyncing several times by deleting all files except wallet.dat but have the same result.

Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately I am not available, but you should check the wiki, any dash/dark guide will do

@thelonecrouton
Good job on the wallet, looking great!

Thanks, but don't hesitate to dish out criticism, I'm not going to break down in tears if I'm told something sucks.

I'd like to make things as simple as possible for users.

I might try having the wallet default to nothing but basic send / receive and show balance / transactions (granny mode, and all most people are ever going to use) unless the user asks for the full monty. Basic / Advanced modes should be enough, I'm not granularising fifteen different user competence levels.

bitcreditscc has begun an electrum port, if we can integrate electrum servers on the BNs then the electrum thin client might make a better grannyplatform. It's also in python, which is better for one's blood pressure and means stuff can get tried and tested far faster. And electrum runs on Andoid too.

No worries, basics first! Great stuff coming up!
