Topic: Bottlecaps 2.1 UPDATE REQUIRED - HARDFORK JULY 4 2014 to 200% Annual PoS - page 12. (Read 388610 times)

I purchased some CAPS on Cryptopia and now just waiting on them to fix the wallet so we can withdraw. I hope that it is soon as I want to get staking these coins. I also think Tradesatoshi should be contacted to see if they can get on the right chain and then we'll have 2 exchanges up and running. I have used Tradesatsohi many times and never had any problems so maybe this is worth trying.

Nice to see you here, Vella. We are on another change, https://freiexchange.com We should all reward them by doing some trading there and supporting them.

Thank you my friend! I have been in CAPS for a long time now just like you. I've never heard of that exchange, I will check it out and see how it is, thanks for sharing this. You haven't had any problems when it comes to depositing and withdrawing coins from there?

Freiexchange seems solid. I have withdrawn two different coins without any issues.

I did get some there and sold some, but I haven't taken any coin off there yet.

Might want to find this coin some other exchanges.

Cryptopia has placed CAPS back in maintenance.

Their support structure and hardware resources seem to be lacking these days. Tongue

Thank you for contacting Cryptopia support.

We apologise for the delay. It appears that your withdrawal has failed to successfully broadcast to the network on the first automated attempt. I have escalated this ticket to our Admin team to attempt to rebroadcast the transaction or cancel it and recredit the funds to your account.

Please leave this support ticket open for communication and we will update you once this has been resolved.

Hey guys!
I was looking at this thread, being all curious and all, I see a ton of techy discussions here, so here's my question, is this coin "accessible" for people that don't know much about crypto?

It's accessible to anyone that takes the time to investigate and learn more about. If you're interested in general crypto knowledge we've built a site specififally to help people learn. https://www.crypto-city.com/index.php/crypto-city-academy/video/

Nice work. Does anyone know of any technical developers channels, that discuss code/compilers and so on?

I see Craptopia is still keeping the wallet offline... Besides withdrawal issues, is it because they want to squeeze the coin owners?

As much work as Tranz has done, he doesn't seem to have any interest in marketing the coin himself. So, the rest of us should step up and get on more exchanges. I know Craptopia has made me a lot of money, but most realistically supported coins like this one are on three or more exchanges.

Maybe Novaexchange and Tradesatoshi should be contacted. Last time I checked, TS was on a different CAPS chain.

Has anyone contacted https://cryptohub.online ? It works better than trade satoshi.

Also https://www.coinexchange.io

https://coinexchangeio.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/9000149877-applying-to-list-your-coin-token-on-coinexchange-io-

I think coinexchange.io charges quite a bit to get on.

(I do regret referring to cryptopia as craptopia, I am grateful for them. It's just that they don't seem to work that hard at times keeping
up with the coins that are paid to be listed there. So many delistings).

I plan to implement new staking ago to improve the staking efficiency by about 70-80% I also plan to put in other code fixes. I am toying with the idea of a hard fork to slow the chain down slightly, Bye set it to 3 mins instead of 1. But not sure about that. This would be similar work to HBN ver 2. About 80-120hrs work depending.

To be honest I wasn't looking for negotiations. My terms are pretty much as laid out. If everyone isn't on board, then no worries. Sounds like there are others who are ready and willing to take over.

Can you elaborate on the staking efficiency. People like Bottlecaps for the return they currently get while staking, if their returns are going to significantly drop I don't think they will be on board with the changes. However if it's to their benefit I think they will be all for it.

This will mean that the CPU will not run at 100%. It will decrease by 70-80%

What I would like to see is a way to reward stakers who stake 24/7 and put those that only open their wallets for a few hours every month or two at a disadvantage. Their is also security risks involved when someone can drop a huge amount of weight on the network at once.

The only way to change this would be to bring the max weight down from 30 days to like 5. But this also has an effect on CPU usage, as well as it would put a soft limit on the highest difficulty we could reach. This requires a hard fork.

Quote from: Tranz on July 18, 2018, 10:21:21 PM

I'm not so sure on the 3min block either. While it would be good as a way to reduce orphan blocks, I feel their are more negatives to positives. It would help to increase the network weight but it would also reduce the amount staked. The network weight is growing exponentially and will shortly have the same effect as increasing block time anyway, especially if we can encourage more people to mint 24/7.

It would encourage people to keep wallet open more, yes. As the difficulty would go up and it would be much more difficult to simply jump on and take over the chain. I did this for HBN. took it from 30 seconds to 2:30 and we went from .01 staking diff to usually over 5. It does have effect of lowering the reward, we would be looking at closer to 30-50% This can be mitigated by a few things. All of these require hard fork.

I think optimising the efficiency of the CPU is something that we should seriously consider.

However, changes to stake age and block time are perhaps something we should avoid. As mentioned earlier the network weight is growing rapidly which should take care of these issues by itself.

What are your thoughts on removing POW? I don't see much benefit for it any more, except leaving us open to another attack.

Anyway what ever we end up doing I don't think we should take a hard fork decision lightly. Let's not forget the last one took nearly a year to get everything back up and running again.

The chain was attacked by PoS not PoW. Any HF would be done with many months in advance. But I do agree, they should never be done lightly.
