Encrypted Money, Baby!
I discovered the thread by looking for information for Qora. Does the project still have anything to do with the Qora or is it a completely unrelated project? I still have some Qora token and wonder if I can do anything with it in this project.

It is related, but your Qora will be of no value in Qortal. Many Qortal users were part of Qora, myself included.
Aw man
If my memory isn't complete garbage... Weren't we in the process of getting you migrated onto Qortal? A few years ago? What stopped us? There was no reason to not finish this. ^^

Starting now, I am posting a weekly summary of progress so that the community can have a better idea of what is happening, and be prepared to discuss our progress at the Think Tank.

Week of Feb 26-Mar 1

Monday Dev Meeting:
Kenny has made PR to show all fees related to trade portal transactions, he will also review Quick's PR: https://github.com/Qortal/qortal/pull/178

Tuesday
Qortal Think Tank:

The structure of the Monday Dev Meeting and Friday Marketing Meetings is going to change to make them more efficient:
1. The intended duration for the meetings is 30 minutes instead of the hour or more it used to be
2. There is a new structure: Announcements, then Q&A, Then Conclusion/Discussion to keep the meeting more focused

Crowetic announced a greater focus on the voting system now that the Self Sponsors have been eliminated.

Qortal Seth was paid 800 QORT for the bounty that Adds a Subscriber List to Q-Tube

A new public group called "mesh network and hardware group" has emerged on Q-Chat. This is the place to go for news related to Reticulum updates, testing, hardware, etc.

Friday Marketing Meeting:
Qortal Seth suggested moving marketing focus away from Cold emails and instead on the following:
1. Publishing content exclusively on Q-Tube/Q-Share and letting people on Web2 platforms know it is there while providing links that explain why our content is exclusively on Qortal
2. Make our current/future videos on Web2 platforms have titles that regular people will search for such as: "how to be private online", "censorship resistance", "Best Free Speech platform", etc.

Marketing Ideas/Progress
1. Rory B Bellows has an account on Brighteon named "Qortal Network" and is working on showing them the value of Qortal.
2. Rory suggests giving password in marketing materials that people type in general chat so we know where they came from. He wants us to have our marketing success determined by metrics be only within Qortal, and therefore completely disconnected from Web2 services.

Justin has announced the Q-Fund for the next month of the Qortians' Exclusive Marketing Club here:
qortal://APP/Q-Fund/crowdfund/Qortal%20Marketing%20Team/q-fund_crowdfund_qortians-exclusive-marketing-c_mR8dOO


Be sure to let any interested devs know that we have Coding Sessions where our main Q-App developer streams their Q-App development live and answers any questions about Qortal Development.

Coding Sessions take place in Qortal's Q-App Discord at Wednesday and Thursday at 12PM PST here: https://discord.gg/yWQghTR3Er

A major update to Q-Tube, our completely decentralized, censorship immune YouTube replacement has been updated with the following features:

Users can subscribe to Q-Tube channels. The Home Page has a tabbed pane that lets users select whether to view all videos or subscriptions only. Subscriptions are saved to the browser, so they do NOT transfer between the UI and chromium browsers. In the future, import/export of subscriptions and publishing them to QDN are planned.

When saving a file, any characters that the Operating System doesn't allow used to be replaced by _ now those characters are removed entirely.

The video type filters on the Home Page use Radio Buttons instead of Checkboxes because they are mutually exclusive, which fits Radio Buttons better. Clicking the button changes the video type without having to click the search button as well

The Video Player doesn't put controls menu over the video anymore. When fullscreen, the controls menu will disappear when the mouse exits the screen while video is playing for a better viewing experience.

Q-Tube statistics are displayed on the Home Page

Supported Codecs are displayed on the Publish Videos page so people know what encoding settings work.


Persistent storage of the following variables has been added:

1. List of Subscriptions
2. Video playback speed
3. Video Type filter
4. Home page currently selected tab

Those promised dividends from the QORT mining have never made it to my wallet.

Where are they? I have one of the original accounts from QORA and you promised everyone with an account who transferred over to QORT would get dividends for staying with the project.

Are you running a node ? I've been running a node since the launch of qortal and getting my rewards so far , even if they are far less at some point than what was originally proposed .

Node or not the promise was that a percentage of all minting rewards would go to the original accounts that migrated over to QORT and this percentage would be spread equally amongst these accounts.

Having a node was not part of the proposal, just ownership of said account.

Just wanted to post here as I haven't been paying attention to the thread.

there have been TONS of updates on Qortal.


Stay updated reading the wiki (which has also been updated as far as style considerably) - https://wiki.qortal.org


The OP right now has some image outages due to my old cloud server having a drive problem, I am seeng what I can do about that, but I may need to make new images as I don't think I have another backup of those... maybe on some old backup disk somewhere... will have to look.


But just because the post topic here isn't being updated actively, does NOT mean there isn't a TON going on with Qortal. Because there IS.

Newest Q-Apps now running on Qortal's decentralized/distributed/encrypted/chunked data network (QDN):


Q-Mail - now live, and not only live, but now has 'Threads' and encrypted group messages within them. (Threads are essentially 'message boards' where you can post in private Qortal groups) VERY cool. Threads also have Q-Chat on the right side, so you can chat and message in threads at the same time, VERY productive environment. Development chat will be moving to Q-Mail after the next couple performance and scaling focused Qortal Core updates.

Q-Shop - Q-Shop is now live, allowing users to create and manage multiple Q-Shops. List items for sale in QORT, and buy/trade completely P2P. Addition of Qortal-AT-powered decentralized automated Escrow will be coming in the future. https://qortal.link/APP/Q-Shop

QBrighteon - Mike Adams of brighteon.com has contracted our assistance in building QBrighteon, the Qortal-powered Brighteon. At the moment there are two-channels from brighteon.com being auto-published on QBrighteon. Health Ranger Report, and BrighteonTV. More channels will be coming in the future, as well as the ability for users to publish videos. https://qortal.link/APP/QBrighteon

Ear-Bump - Ear-Bump is a Q-App focused on being a music platform (basically a decentralized version of Spotify) - Ear-Bump allows playing and publishing music, creating playlists, favorites, and more. Very functional and awesome. https://qortal.link/APP/Ear-Bump

Q-Blog - I don't know if I have already mentioned Q-Blog here or not, but... Q-Blog is Qortal's first 'social media' focused Q-App. Publish videos, text, music, files, images in a blog-like post, even with a custom 'builder editor' that allows placing your post content exactly as you like. In the longer-term Q-Blog is going to become a fully featured 'web builder' that allows addition of 'blocks' of HTML/JS content, to create fully featured web presences from within Qortal. https://qortal.link/APP/Q-Blog

Q-Fund - Q-Fund is Qortal's decentralized/automated AT-powered CrowdFunding (QrowdFunding) platform, which is currently in development and will be getting launched in the near future. Stay active in the community for continual updates. Q-Fund will allow people to create and fund their projects with the power of QORT and Qortal ATs.


Latest interviews and podcasts

Recently I did an interview with 'Crypto Jesus' of the 'Crypto Fun House', and I published a slightly improved version of that interview on Q-Blog (without the additional mirrored content, and chat messages)

You can find that through the 'public gateway' (allows access to QDN-hosted content from 'the internet') here - https://qortal.link/APP/q-blog/crowetic/blog/crowetic-Crypto-Jesus-in-iUq0IR

There will also be another Brighteon interview getting published soon that was accomplished a month or so ago.



Stay updataed with the weekly 'Qortal Think Tank' chats

As the project is developing at a very fast pace, one of the simplest ways to stay updated is to jump into the Qortal Think Tank chats we do EVERY WEEK at 10AM PST on TUESDAYS.

You can join that call at that time here - (Qortal 'cloud' nextcloud server we use until Qortal has real-time voice/video/screenshare capability) - https://cloud.qortal.org/call/2oxmnpke

The Think Tank is recorded and you can find the videos from previous ones published on Q-Blog as well, here is the main Think Tank Recording Q-Blog link (again through the 'qortal.link public gateway' - All of the QDN-hosted content can of course be accessed in a TRULY DECENTRALIZED fashion directly on your machine running the Qortal UI and Core. As it should be.) - https://qortal.link/APP/q-blog/Qortal-Think-Tank/Publishing

You can find the most recent Think Tank recording here - https://qortal.link/APP/q-blog/Qortal-Think-Tank/Publishing/QTT-Sep-6th-2023-5Xec8U

To host website on Qortal blockchain should I be more than Lvl 0 ? Or it doesn't matter ?
Level does not matter, you'll only require some QORT to register your name and you'll be all set.
Good, thank you for an answer.

And what about buy orders on trade portal ?
People still can't place order to buy at price they want. Why ?
So many new versions of the Core and UI have been released lately, but there are no positive changes on this issue.


The Qortal UI now has 'auto buy' - this functionality essentially allows for 'buy orders' to take place on the trade portal.


You can put in an amount of QORT you wish to buy, and price you're willing to buy up to. Auto buy does the rest. Picks up every order under the price you set, starting at the lowest and working its way up, that you can afford.


The auto buy orders are not 'public' so that is essentially the only 'difference' between auto buy and a 'buy order' in the sense that most people are thinking of when they say 'buy orders'.


There are technical reasons as to why on-chain buy orders are not a thing, as the other coins involved in the trades need to be able to be 'escrowed' such as QORT is in the AT during the placement of a sell order.

We have discussed methods among the developers to make this take place with the existing AT system of Qortal, and we believe it is possible, but it is not the primary development focus right now.


The development is currently focused on Q-Apps, which will allow essentially any application to be built on top of Qortal's infrastructure. This is an extremely exciting new addition to the Qortal Data Network, and will allow essentially everything people use on 'the internet' to be rebuilt on top of Qortal easily. Opening up multiple API calls to Q-Applications hosted on the distributed decentralized QDN.

This, along with the first few Q-Apps are the focus at the moment, to get Qortal to the point of literally being able to rebuild anything.

Blogs, video hosting platforms, social media, all types of communications, etc.

This project will never succeed if the evil is not stopped!
No one will trust a: project with a development team holding a sword!

hmm... obviously you're not part of the community. Otherwise you would never say such nonsense.


edit - also, you didn't say a single word that adds up to anything. So you've just come here to see yourself talk huh? Fun times.
