Thank you to everyone who has donated thus far, it is much appreciated!


I agree that QORA has a very bright future, is one of the most under-valued coins (along with BURST, which is now picking up quite a bit of momentum), and it will be very nice to see this change soon!





I've been thinking about something... let me know what you guys think of this... Just a totally random thought... but...

What does everyone think about making QORA 1.0 a merged-mining project with BURST? Making use of BURST's algo, and making the plots compatible, so that you can plot your drives one time, and mine both BURST and QORA 1.0 with the same plots? It wouldn't take anything for extra power, you'd just have to run two instances of the miner until we get a dual miner built.

I haven't discussed this with the dev team yet, but I was thinking that it would be a really cool idea... not only would it give massive incentive to mine QORA (to existing BURST miners), because you can mine both coins at the same time (getting extra profit), but it should also provide QORA with a MUCH stronger network... BURST has over 2000 active nodes, and many many more miners, so if we were to do this, I believe that the network for QORA should get to the same size fairly quickly.


I'm also trying to figure out the best distribution for when the cap of coins is increased... if anyone has any good ideas about this, I would be open to hearing them!



The other thing... people may notice that there is no longer a forging reward for QORA... This means that QORA is fully distributed. All coins are out. IMO this is the perfect time to implement the new algo, and increase the cap. But at the same time, I don't want to introduce a ton of coins quickly, so that the current coin price doesn't get affected much. I'm thinking we do a 2000/block reward and just let it stay that way. Double the coin cap, and let people mine!


Let me know what you think about this... like I said, I haven't talked to anyone about it yet, just an idea. Thanks!

All this activity looks very good for the revival of qora! A bright future ahead of us guys! And with Qora 2.0 coming the mars is the limit

just 1M...good to see people donating

there is so much tech behind qora and such a low price...

@theduuude did you pledge 1,000,000 qora twice? That is a hefty pledge to match.

The qrowdfund is just getting started, no? I'd like the weekend to review some of the posts. Crowetic left a long list to review. I intend to pledge. I will also post bounty pledges where, for example, if someone shows me how to install from source using java I'll pledge 20,000 qora.

In my experience, closing does not take much time. No more than a minute at most.

...only 2 people donated to the qrowdfund and I was one of them...wth

there are more than 2 people on this forum...with 10B coins out there we need more

all holder who want coin to increase in value must participate...

2 cents

I have done pledging . Looking forward to 2.0 platform . It will be POW so it may be valuable as compare to POS .

Why do you think this?

Back on board again. Qora still one of the most undervalued cryptos.

The Closing process lasts much time. 1 Hour waiting ? :O

During successful close a checkpoint of the database ist created (called "databak"). If you kill the application it will not close properly and have to start from last checkpoint.
Those checkpoints are unfortunately only done during successful closing. If you donwloaded the data folder, you can also create that databak fodler with the same content so you will atleast have one good checkpoint to start from in case of an error.

File-> Quit or if you are using the light-wallet --> Qora-icon in systemtray -> right-click->Exit

One question: after reboot my machine i have to sync bei wallet from the scratch ... why?

[ANNouncement] - QORA PR and Marketing CrowdFund started!


Hello everyone! We have launched the first CrowdFund for QORA, for Marketing and PR!


I had some issues launching, and thus launched multiple (there was some strange issue on the system I was using) so please ignore all of them aside from this one... http://127.0.0.1:9090/qrowdfund/at?at=AGe5sF9wSskpjx7YJo8rGG4Kb4JcebGqGU     (please note, you have to have a QORA wallet up and running/sync'd on your machine to get to this link.)


This is the first CF of multiple that we will be launching for QORA. We will launch them in groups of 1-2 at a time, I think I will also launch one for Development at the same time as this one. To see which direction people would like to see more focus on at the beginning of this big transition.




Also... We are going to be redesigning the way QORA hosting works in 2.0 version, making it encrypted so that illegal content is solely on the hands of the person who uploaded it and broke the terms of service.


So, this lead us to thinking about what could be done to make more use cases for QORA 1.0, and we are thinking we will likely turn it into a decentralized news hosting location. Make it limited on the number of accounts who can actually upload content (until we get to QORA 2.0) and give big news agencies upload accounts, allowing them to decentralize their news content. This is one idea.


Also, we have many ideas for the improvement of the QrowdFund platform, I'll give details on this a bit later! I believe it will be a completely new way of looking at CrowdFunds and management of them, and keep from having the issues of people starting them and not completing the jobs they started them for (thus scamming the people who donated to it.) I think it is a great plan, and it should work out great!




QORA 1.0 will be an exclusive gateway to 2.0, with the holders of 1.0 being able to donate coins and obtain one of the first 'mining accounts' on QORA 2.0. QORA 1 will also function as a gateway to poloniex through the power of ACCT, and will be focused on the QrowdFund platform and making QORA 1 into a service for decentralizing news content. With 2.0 being the one that anyone can use for decentralized hosting, as the data will be entirely encrypted, and able to be put responsibility solely on the person who uploaded the content. In the current system that isn't the case, so the worry of illegal content being on other user's computers if someone breaks the terms and uploads illegal content, is an issue.




One more thing... I have been offered a position at a company as their lead IT, I will have a lot of freedom there to continue running my company and the projects I am, so that won't be a problem, but during the first week or so I will have a lot of work to do there, thus I won't be quite as active here. Only for the first week until I get everything straightened out completely, then I will be able to calm down and put my 100% focus back to the projects here and my own company. I've already been given keys to the building, and my own office there, this was totally unexpected, but it should give me more income and still about the same amount of free time that I have now with just running my company and the projects we're building.

I'm only saying this so that if I'm not quite as active for the next week or so, you all know why and you don't assume that I've disappeared.


Anyway, feel free to continue giving your opinions on what we should be doing with everything.



As far as the person who suggested that the switch to a mined algo is good, but to make sure that we don't over saturate the market with new coins.... I completely agree. We will make sure that we don't introduce new coins in super quick fashion, and make sure that the introduction of them is done in a way that the current price will not be negatively affected, while at the same time giving the network the boost in power that it needs.

We will also make sure to provide as many use cases for QORA 1 as possible, while at the same time providing others in QORA 2.



We're still open to suggestions and ideas, so keep them coming!

Please donate to the QrowdFund posted above.

Excited to see Qora starting to get the attention it deserves.

I installed Qora a few months ago without any problems. I was running Qora v0.25 and I forged a few blocks then shut it down after about 2 weeks.

Revisited a week or two ago. Not able to make more than 2 connections, not able to forge. Updated to Qora v0.26 but still had the same problems. In the last day, I'm getting no connections.

I used the zipped file from https://github.com/Qoracoin/Qora/releases

I downloaded the file provided by Crowtec from https://cloud.crowetic.com/s/IDzrYBiqXnhNCvg and replaced data and dataBak files.

Might try this again.

Not too worried. I can send and receive coins.

I'd like to install from source (git clone) to see if that helps but I don't know details of how to do so.
I've cloned the repository and I don't see anything other than  .../src/Start.java
Not sure how to proceed from there.

My java version is 8 (build 1.8.0_66-b17)

Looking forward to exploring Qora. Interesting and tremendous potential.

wallet is unstable and disconnects but your sentence could not be further from the truth. sell your coins and kindly go as far away as you can

Great plans ahead for qora . Make it a premium blockchain application DEV. There are so much potentials on this project.

Forging is a scam, wallet often lose connection
