Jumbucks Slack Tip Bot

Tip bot is live and up and running at Jumbucks Slack! Tips are on the blockchain! Happy tipping!

Sign up to Jumbucks Slack here: http://slack.getjumbucks.com


Tips are onchain, thus viewable on block explorers. If tipped, you will need to wait for the next block before it is added to your tipbot balance. A tx fee will also be taken from your tipbot balance, equivalent to the standard network tx fee.
 
Tips can not exceed your tipbot balance - 0.0005 JBS. This is to ensure there is enough left for the tx fee. This also applies to withdraws.
 
Minimum tip amount is 0.1 JBS

 

Technically, yes.  Most have upgraded.  You are highly encouraged to upgrade ASAP as this release takes up less resources too.  The exchanges Bittrex and Bleutrade have also upgraded.  Cryptsy is unfortunately running 1.7.

In this change in the 1.8 release:

The next reward change kicks in at exactly 2 years since launch:

Previously it kicked in based on block count:
Where YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT was set to:

So you definitely MUST upgrade prior to block 1,051,200.  Currently at block 606,987.

The next update will most likely be a hard fork so that will be a mandatory update but I'll give ample time to upgrade that.

Julian,
mandatory?

Jumbucks New Wallet Version 1.9 - Please upgrade

Hi all,

A new wallet version 1.9 has been released for Jumbucks. This release is a clean upgrade for users currently running version 1.8 of the wallet. If you are upgrading from version 1.7 or prior, please follow the steps in the release notes of version 1.8 as the data directory was renamed in that release. New users may install the wallet as is.

Highlights of this release include greatly improved wallet and staking performance.

This release is an incremental step to being a very solid cryptocurrency. It has some staking changes which improves wallet performance and the network for the long term future.

The next update will likely change the block times to something longer, for example up from 60 seconds to 100 seconds and change the proof of stake algorithm to SHA256.  This would be a version 2.0 release as it requires a hard fork.

We remind you that the primary communications channel is Jumbucks Slack.

Thank you for your support!

Github: https://github.com/jyap808/jumbucks/releases/tag/v1.9

Changes:

• Removed the unused encrypted messaging feature. This saves memory and network resources.
• Modify Proof of Stake rewards to change based on nTime as opposed to block count. This makes the switchover at year 2 and year 10 exact in time.
• Increase the number of nodes required (from 3 to 5) to be connected for staking for better broadcasting of blocks.
• Rebalance staking network. More inputs, less resources, better stake payouts. This also results in a more stable wallet taking up less resources.
• Only sign blocks based on current time as slow systems can unintentionally lag behind. This helps to reduce network orphaned blocks.
• RPC command getwalletinfo - Modify to add more details
• RPC command dumpbootstrap - New command

Jumbucks Fantasy Football Prize Pool is staking on a Raspberry Pi, watch it grow in real-time! http://ff.getjumbucks.com/

The Block explorer for Jumbucks has been renewed for another year by me https://chainz.cryptoid.info/jbs/

Jumbucks Fantasy Football
 
The 1st Annual Jumbucks Fantasy Football season is up and running! Twelve players from a variety of interests and backgrounds have signed up and the smack talk has already begun. For some of the players this represents their first taste of cryptocurrency, while others are are established members of the Jumbucks community taking their first punt at fantasy sports. We look forward to seeing both groups smack talk throughout the season, and anticipate several new Jumbucks and cryptocurrency fans by the time the competition completes.
 
The league buy in was 20 USD worth of $JBS. Five members of the Jumbucks community also donated to increase the prize pool, so many thanks to Julian, Xocel, Sicarious, Saintgermaine, Bittrex Bill and Takeshi for their donations and support of Jumbucks. Calculating the player buy-ins, plus the donations, the total prize pool is up to 10,000 $JBS! This prize pool will be held and staked in a wallet managed by the Jumbucks devs until the league finishes.  The league’s 1st place winner will receive 65% of the pool in addition to the stake, 2nd place will receive 25%, and 3rd place will receive 10%.

The league will kick off with a draft on Saturday September 5th and will run all the way through week 16 of the NFL season. If you want to check out the league channel and talk some smack with the league players, head over to http://slack.getjumbucks.com/ and join  #jbs-fantasy-football. While all twelve spots in the league are already filled, you are invited to reserve a position in the event that one of the current players has to drop out. If enough additional interest is raised then there could be an opportunity to create a second league. We look forward to a fun season, and invite you to drop in the Jumbucks Slack channel to welcome all the newcomers to Jumbucks.

Jumbucks is a Fair Launch cryptocurrency which launched in September 2014 without an IPO and with zero premine.  Jumbucks currently runs as 100% Proof of Stake, and is currently traded on Bittrex, Bleutrade and Cryptsy.  Find out more information at GetJumbucks.com.

Jumbucks Slack - Open to all!

Cultivating a strong community is very important for a coin but something that is often neglected or overlooked by its creators.  In contrast, Jumbucks cryptocurrency was originally built around an IRC community called #coinmarkets, and since then has focused upon growing and strengthening the larger cryptocurrency community.

Technology surrounding the cryptocurrency scene is in a constant state of flux, so it's imperative that a coin have the ability to adapt and change with the times.

Jumbucks has long had a dedicated IRC channel on Freenode but oftentimes this medium of communication can be limiting.  There is a learning curve involved with IRC that is not inviting for newcomers, and they are also at risk from scammers who lurk in channels to prey on new users.

Because of this, we have ported the custom existing commands from the Jumbucks IRC channel into Jumbucks Slack.  As time progresses, we will be improving the Jumbucks Slack experience with custom bots, new functionality, and other interactive elements.

My vision for Jumbucks is that it will always be a welcoming community where both oldtimers and people new to cryptocurrencies can feel welcome.  Jumbucks Slack will always be open to everyone and there are no requirements for members to be a Jumbucks supporter or holder.

Joining bonus and referral program

That being said, we want to take this opportunity to welcome each newcomer to our growing community with a gift of 20 $JBS. Also, you can earn 5 additionally $JBS for every person you refer to the Slack channel, to a maximum of 10 referals. (This program is subject to change.)

To claim your free $JBS, please join the #referrals channel in Jumbucks Slack and mention your claim--payouts will be done manually.

We hope you can all join us in Jumbucks Slack!
