Version 0.1.1 has been released which updates the entropy library. Launch of the test network will happen using a newly-generated genesis data which uses real entropy instead of the dummy one.

Nice one, things are moving! Looking forward to the IBO announcement Smiley

when to start IBO, waitting....

Below are some actions which are desired/possible to happen before announcing the IBO.

  • Announcing a public testnet.
  • Talking to potential exchanges (after announcing the testnet).
  • Improving the website and documentation (maybe writing a whitepaper substitute).
  • Waiting until Tendermint is production ready. Speaking of that, there are only 4 open issues left in the “launch” milestone (with 42 closed).

This has been a long time in the making. Looking forward to see it come to life!

New wallet design with improved transaction creation and broadcasting is live at https://ercoin.gitlab.io/ercoin-browser-wallet/. Impressions?

It is now possible to list committed transactions in the wallet (using a simple search form). The following data is displayed:

  • Block height.
  • Transaction hash.
  • Transaction type (transfer, account, lock, vote, burn).
  • “From” address.
  • “To” address (if relevant).
  • Valid until / locked until (if relevant).
  • Value (if relevant).
  • Fee.
  • Message (if relevant).

To make this work, Tendermint must be configured to index “from” and “to” tags (either set [tx_index] → index_tags to contain “from,to” or [tx_index] → index_all_tags to true).

Currently there is a discrepancy in regard to messages, as transaction creation form treats messages as strings (which are later encoded using UTF-8), but transaction list displays them as binaries. This probably should be configurable.

Big change was implemented recently which changes method of measuring time in Ercoin from block height to timestamps. It comes from the fact that time between blocks is not enforced by consensus in Tendermint. Besides making data structures more natural and the usage simpler, it allows to abandon creating blocks every n seconds regardless of whether there are transactions present or not. If there are no transactions, blocks are created much rarer than when transactions are present. This reduces blockchain size without impacting confirmation time.

The browser wallet now supports timestamps, with some tools to display and edit them nicely in various contexts. The command line wallet has been obsoleted.

To make the feature of delaying block creation when there are no transactions actually possible, Tendermint needs to stop creating blocks if app hash changes. See issue #1909 for details.

ercoin.tech has now SSL encryption and there is also a news feed. It is intended to be rather low volume and can be used in particular to watch for the announcement of burning period.

There are also syndication feeds on GitLab which can be used to track activity in repositories.

The browser wallet now supports eight currency units, based on decimal prefixes. The smallest possible unit is currently nanoercoin (nERN). An Ercoin node operates only on nanoercoins and treats it as a basic unit.

Did you planned to do airdrop or bounty ?

Two bounties have been already announced (listed on ercoin.tech, paid in BLK as Ercoin is not launched yet) and there may be more in the future. No plans to do an airdrop.

Ercoin now has a logo.

It looks very....vintage Cheesy

Might be an idea to hire a logo designer at some point, in exchange for some Ercoin of course!
I agree. For now the priority is to have some logo and this one is not created by a professional. Since there is no ICO and no premine, hiring a designer will likely require a sponsor. Another option is to pay someone to only polish the existing design.
