No ETA given...but currently as a one man show that requires a bit of analysis, it will take some time.  In other words, go long with Qora.  Cool


I'm no expert but it seems to me that Qora might be THE crypto currency to build upon long term. NXT has probably been that up to this point but I'm thinking that might change over time.

Reality is stranger than fiction
I got word of rlh's planned project for the Qora AE. I promised not to say what it is but IMO it's the best idea since crypto was invented; it is clear why it must be kept close to the hip during development!! It could be very huge for Qora once it's implemented and adopted.  Cheesy Cool

Great idea rlh...it's a very logical evolution for crypto.  Wink



 Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

I knew it was something great!!!!

 Cool Cool Cool Cool Cool Cool

How much will we have to wait? Any ETA?

Can we do BOUNTIES for a good Promotion video??

and a Better website!

+1

A good promotion video  (eg with animation characters, nice voice etc) will definately be helpful and introduce new members.

The website needs embellishment too - also many translations would be good.

+ High quality tutorial videos (but that could wait till the new wallet is out)

You can get Nxt forging algo in slighlty simplified form in my blog http://chepurnoy.org/blog/2014/10/inside-a-proof-of-stake-cryptocurrency-part-2/ . And I'm going to investigate Qora's forging algo(got no detailed view from first investigation). I can even publish a blog on that if it's interesting, and make executable simulation of Qora forging process(I already made that for Nxt https://github.com/ConsensusResearch/ForgingSimulation )
I would be very happy to see a blog and an executable simulation !!!! That would be really great.

One of the topics discussed before OS was if Qora utilizes transparent forging, that is a forger of the "next block" is known for all online network members beforehand. Kushti mentions some issues needing to be resolved (in NXT) before TF could take place. If TF is possible and not yet implemented in qora, could the forging algo be adjusted and would the community want to do this?

I should ask: what is really the benefit of TF?

This is the original marketing address containing the recovered sharexcoin funds:
Qav66m4TkwVQC1YeutxG1fbTrZ6zzTtS3R

21 million qora in the sharex account: I assume this will now be used for bounties. I had 8 million on Sharex at the time of theft so I consider my loss contribution towards bounties.

Everybody, please keep login on the chat so we can actively develope together!! http://coinia.net/qora/chat/


I promise I will say this one more time and shut up about it. But I think chat has some uses if developers need to discuss a project but other wise I feel like chat makes a project look dead on here if people don't post on the thread. Personally I would kill chat altogether and have discussions take place on the thread, NXT managed to do it. Hiding Qora off thread particularly doesn't help The general image and communication of Qora.

yeah well ok. lets do the threat ^^ anybody else got problems opening wallet on the mac? Mine dont connect..

Congrats guys, open source really matters!

First look thoughts:

1. This is definitely not another Nxt fork
2. What's in native libs? I guess the should be opensourced as well.
3. I did successfully run Qora under Intellij Idea by importing Eclipse project in the repo and adding native libs to a project
4. JSON settings are looking cool, but comments are needed, I guess, especially for non-coders
5. Got unsafe memory issue related to MapDb https://github.com/Qora/Qora/issues/8 . I guess it's better to avoid off-heap operations, for current MapDb state at least. I bet I did read Jan Kotek's article on how to do that.
6. Worse issue, I got not much useful message trying to run a node after crash https://github.com/Qora/Qora/issues/9 . Verbosity matters here.
7. Code seems to be more clean & easier to read than Nxt at the moment. However, after adding features / patches it could be the same, so have luck guys  Grin   And formatting isn't Sun(Oracle)'s standard http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/codeconvtoc-136057.html (the same is true for Nxt).
8. Commented code is not good and not necessary with VCS (the same is true for Nxt at the moment as well)
9. What's the Orders launcher about  Huh
10. Any detailed description of Arbitrary Transaction available?



All I can verify is that Nxt vs. Qora looks completely different.  Also, Qora makes use of the global "Generating Balance" to determine the block Target.  From my scan of the Nxt code, no such value is used.  I think there is a bit more randomness to Nxt than their might be of Qora, but I won't stand by that.  Qora basically looks at the time since the last block, the forgers personal balance and the total balance of forging accounts.  It then uses a fairly straight forward process to test if a block has been forged.

I haven't been able to figure out what Nxt does.  This isn't because of poor Nxt coding.  It's because I don't have the time to look into it.  If a Nxt guru is around, please comment.

You can get Nxt forging algo in slighlty simplified form in my blog http://chepurnoy.org/blog/2014/10/inside-a-proof-of-stake-cryptocurrency-part-2/ .
