I'd really like to donate, but I cant get the wallet to sync.

I also think, it might be more effective to do an ICO for Qora 2.0 than trying to attract crowdfunds from a relatively low marketcap coin like QORA. There might just not be that much capital for crowdfunding in it...what will you do with 500$?


I don't think doing an ICO is on our radar... What we will do, is a plan to allow QORA 1 holders to purchase QORA 2 mining accounts in round one. Being the first to obtain the mining accounts on QORA 2. This will be the exclusive way to get into the initial mining accounts on QORA 2. Providing more use for QORA 1.

As far as the funding, these CF attempts are not to just get funding, they're to see how motivated the community is. If we deem it that not enough people are motivated, we will think of other funding methods, including assets like I've got on BURST, which could potentially fund the entire project if done correctly, I'll give more ideas there in the future, lets see how this first CF goes.

since yesterday im finding alot of blocks?! something happened or am i just lucky?


I'm pretty sure that Poloniex has stopped forging per my request. Funny that it coincides with the fact that there are no more mining rewards... hah.


I've suggested that poloniex donate the coin they've forged over the years, to the QrowdFunds... lets see if they go for it.

I dont think they will send tbh Cheesy

Synereo(AMP) announces first for decentralized social network...i think that was qora, was it not?

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/synereo-announces-alpha-phase-as-worlds-first-decentralized-social-network/


This is correct, QORA was the first decentralized social network... I've noticed multiple people trying to claim world firsts, such as lottery, and Smart contracts.... when in reality it was BURST and QORA for all of these things...

Soon we'll make sure the world knows too. Smiley

I'm seeing some great ideas and love the potential merge mining, I'm 100% excited, but I think we need to address the elephant in the room, Qora is still buggy, especially for new adopters. I believe if we address some of Qora's consistent main user friction points, the work performed thereafter will be all the more successful and at an increased momentum. If there is a fund dedicated to improving Qora install, Termination & Updating, put me down for a 1mil donation.


The merged mining may not come to fruition it was just an idea. After speaking with vbcs, I've found that he's working on a new algo that will be something like PoW and proof of storage together. He's very excited about it. So I think the merged mining idea might be put on the back burner for now. In favor of the new algo.

Either way, I think 2000/block reward and doubling the cap would be sufficient way to handle things moving forward.


Yes, we're aware of the bugs, which is why we've posted workarounds for them for now. I've still got vbcs, and Skerberus working on the coin, so they're very aware of the issues as well. So don't worry, we will handle these issues.




Another idea that we're tossing around...

QORA 1.0 will become a service for decentralized web hosting, targeting news agencies, etc. Accounts that can upload content will be limited to avoid any sort of issues dealing with people putting things up that are not within the scope of law. We can reach out to cointelegraph, and various other news agencies, and provide them with these accounts, so that they can decentralize their news sites, talking about decentralized currencies. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Then, we implement a beautiful web interface for the wallet, with full functionality.

We make a new design for crowdfunding, and focus on promoting this. The new design will include a project management tool tied in with the CF, so that the investors can see where their money is going with both the blockchain, and completed markings on things the CF was supposed to fund. Also, the people seeking funding, can get a certain amount for getting to a certain milestone, and another amount for another, etc. I think this is a great plan, and something we will be suggesting as a potential idea.

QORA 2.0 will have a fully encrypted/randomized data storage node network tied together with its new style mining algo and new way of mining. This will also include a way to completely banish botnet miners, making it impossible for botnets to mine. It will solve all issues of every existing algo, as well as the botnet problem.

The network on QORA 2.0 will allow anyone to upload and host content, because the responsibility of the data being legal will fall upon their own heads, and could not potentially cause any issues to the network itself.

@ lyynx  ... lol, I stunned myself real good this time around with the windows wallet.  

In my defense though, it has been very long since I actually used wallet. Thanks for your detailed guide.   Smiley

This is realy essentiel, you have to start a second crowdfunding for Qora 2.0 to recieve a wider adobtion.

1.   you will recieve a much higher funding for development in future

2.  Attention of people which already get in into crypto and never heard about Qora. Have you seen what happend with Neos? Realy iam shocked about this reaction, if they understand Qora and its tech behind, they may go cracy

3. Publicity that Qora is starting a new crowdsale,  people will talk about Qora and recognice and realize that this awesome coin is still running under radar, new people will explore Qora and community will expand

There is only one decision to make! a new crowdsale.

You can change old Qora for a better ratio against new Qora. But in my opinion we shouldnt call it Qora 2.0, its implemts the quesion about Qora 1.  Imo i would call it Qora Z, or Qoraz, iQora  or what ever,,,  we could make a list of potenziell canditates in a greater pool.

Dilution ICO's, the new black ...

It doesn't necessarily have to be a complete dilution ICO. If crowetic and the team want to keep the QORA chain and create a new QORA 2.0 chain, so be it. But to rely on voluntary funding is overly optimistic IMHO

For those of you Having Trouble with the Qora Wallet, try these steps if you are a Windows user.

* Make sure you do not have a version of Qora installed, you might even have to look in %appdata%
** If you are creating a new Qora account, be ready to copy and save your Wallet Seed & Password for safe keeping. Never share this info with anyone!!

1. Make sure you have the latest version of the Java JRE installed http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html
2. Download the latest Qora Wallet Zip file https://github.com/Qoracoin/Qora/releases/
3. Download the QORA blockchain sync'd as of August 25th, 2016 - https://cloud.crowetic.com/s/IDzrYBiqXnhNCvg
4. Unzip Qora to the location of your choice
5. Run the Jar file
6. Wait for the wallet to load the wallet load.
7. Either Create an Account or Sign In
8. Exit Qora - File > Quit
9. Go to your Qora directory
10. Delete the /data directory folder
11. If there is also a dataBak directory, delete it's contents
12. Unzip the Qora Blockchain zip to the directory you just deleted the /data folder from. You should now have the synced /data folder now
13. Start your Qora Wallet from the Qora jar again
14. Keep fingers crossed, wait, after some time your wallet will load, sign in and wait until the full blockchains is loaded to the most current block.
15. If this worked, go buy some Qora and you are in business.

I pledge a good chunk for development but are currently trying to get the wallet going. I experience difficulties but are making progress to get to the solution.

crowetic...would the block time be 4min as burst.  2000 block reward and 10bil increase equal ~38 years.  definitely long enough.  2000 reward would make it worthwhile

if qora moved to burst algo, it would immediately gain acceptance with those mining burst.  this would immediately increase network activity.  since qora and burst are "cousins" it would support both coins.

those who currently hold qora for trading purposes are the current problem as i see it (and I think a lot of qora is held up in exchanges)...we need to get qora moving around on the blockchain....traders will not do this

i vote YES...get those 2000 nodes working for qora as well



to expand...need reason to move coins to wallet...not sure if burst algo will do this...
