Topic: BTCD is no more - page 353. (Read 1328490 times)

need more sell orders on the mgw!

Yeah, I think BTCD still uses peercoin's coin age. That means you can go online every now and again and still get all your staking power. This is actually a bad thing for the network, so I doubt anyone wants to make it easier to get your stake without staking.

I believe BTCD were thinking of switching to Nxt's POS model, is that still happening? Alternatively Blackcoin started off with Peercoin's coin age and have now switched to a system similar to Nxt (And I believe other peercoin clones are following them. e.g. solar coin), so that might be a good way for BTCD to go.

"I think we need to have the person(s) running the rogue nodes to stop, we will put in better blacklisting moving forward

1408490755000000 from 94.243.246.1:14631 retstr.(`?6?)

1408490768000000 from 24.253.222.103:52238 retstr.(`?6?)

the rogue nodes are running on IP addresses: 94.243.246.1 and 24.253.222.103
there are up to four at a time and the IP addresses are changing. you are running debug versions that are no good. Please revert to official release."


I read the above reply from James to mean that the IP addresses were changing making it impossible to block / stop the problem

I have no idea where or how to do this....if someone can point me in the right direction I would be grateful 


Jon

My mistake then. I thought proof of stake meant proof of holding the coins.
This feature was introduced by peercoin. It was proof of age

a solution was provided, did you try this? It worked for me

[ANN] New exchange had added BTCD - Nxt Multigateway


Here is one click installer :

For any support issue please follow this thread :

Happy Trading

p/s : If you like my contribution any amount tips are welcomed

yah, I went there 

He gave you 2 suggested IP's to block. Did you?

Yea well I'm not staking because the wallet is using a gig a day because of rogue nods on wrong software.....it needs sorting

Jon

There is a estimated timetable for features and functions a few pages back, read up

You shouldn't be complaining about the BTCD blue light special on aisle three..... the price will rise in good time.  No features have been launched, so upward movement is in the near future.  For now, be happy you can still purchase at discounted prices  

when is somthing going to be released to make the price move ??

The whole purpose of staking would be defeated because we want people to have their wallets open because wallets ARE the network. So people are getting "paid" for contributing to the sability of the network by staking (letting their wallets run).

But then you aren't staking, so don't deserve extra coin. If people aren't staking, then there's no BTCD network supporting the coin.

James, would it be possible to get automatic proof of stake by our addresses in blockchain?
I mean we won't have to leave our wallets open for staking.
The system will check PoS through the blockchain.

If this is possible it will be a great feature, I suppose

The above has link to a web GUI that supports mgwBTCD
it is not reskinned yet, but those that want to test multigateway process with BTCD, it is available.
I think the graphics peoples should definitely try it out so you can get ideas on what graphics to change

it is not a one click installer process yet, if you have any problems, please dont ask me. Just post in the above thread

James

you would need to be on your computer to get any sort of reporting, it is the only place where this info is. That's kind of what makes Teleport so hard to attack, you need to get access to all the nodes themselves. Of course these files will be encrypted so just access to the hardware is not enough, your wallet needs to get compromised

I am not going to even try to make this info publicly available after all the troubles to keep it private!

Also, I will just provide API that returns JSON with details needed for a GUI to make whatever sort of display is wanted.

James

the fee needs to be paid in BTCD, and that would be done via realtime market purchase
So if it is done from the bitcoindark website and charging BTCD, that's a pretty bitcoindark user experience
for people with a BTCD wallet and pubaddr, they would get easier user experience, not sure of all the details yet

Things like if they want to make a local telepod, it is stored in BTCD

I ran into minime on the poloniex trollbox of all places. He had an idea that is quite promising

he asked if it was possible to have a website where anybody can just go to and start a teleport
at first I didnt see how to do it, but I think it is actually possible!

it would need to be some sort of official teleporting website
the users input the info like amount, destination and they get an address to send their coins to.
Once it comes in, the teleport is done on behalf of the user. Since they are on a website, we cant enforce the BTCD deposit requirement, but we can much more easily collect a fee that is payable in BTCD

James

Does anybody have any requirements of the type of accounting info they need?
Without a blockchain to publicly link tx, it is of course a challenge to prove that you made a specific payment. Doing this, you are losing the privacy for this tx, but presumably if you are divulging this to the person you sent to, nothing is really changed.

My thinking is that if you teleport payment to someone and they say, "what payment? I dont see no payment." you would want to be able to prove that you did send them X amount. If they have cloned, there is proof that somebody did this and you have the info to prove that you had the telepod that was cloned. So at this level all that is needed is the detailed report of the telepods sent. This is all part of the existing protocol, so I just need to store this data (encrypted).

In the event of trusted teleports, we want to enforce good behavior, so we need to incinerate the actual telepods that have been accepted on the other side.

Now what if the person you send to is lying? he can say, it wasnt me that cloned your telepod and since Teleporting works a bit too well, it becomes a bit of an issue in this case!

To deal with this I am requiring signed confirmation for telepod delivery, so there will be verifiable proof that the recipient's public address signed for the receiving the telepods.

Any feedback on the type of reports you want will help me design the best way to extract this info

Thanks

James
