Topic: Tezos discussion - page 77. (Read 215827 times)

I also noticed that the price of Tezos has a close to 20% pump. Is any good news coming? Or is it close to the launch?
It is a really long time wait. 

I have just noticed that on coinmarketcap Tezos (Futures) changed into Tezos(Pre Launch). Also there is new exchange gate.io with Tezos/USDT pair. Anyone has any info?

In one and half month Tezos coins should be released according to official announcement. Our patience will be rewarded. I hope.

It seems to be an interesting project to be a good investment!  I will follow this project.

Well said. Tezos can definitely absorb the heads of the family.

Tezos can be said to be an intelligent contract platform with a paying heart, and the self - governing, centralization of the books can absorb the heads of the family, while the new intelligent contract language and formal verification can make the developers more effort and less effort.

This is a great idea to be investigated  ..I like the way everyone is trying to think of how to make things even better instead of LAMBO ..

We make things better THEN lambo ..

Now all your voting ideas are all WRONG  ..My way is the best  WHY you ask  because mine is FUN
and sometimes my fun can make you RICH ..

The delegation services are staying in and the delegation vote is staying BUT we are going to do something after the delegation vote that's FAIR to everyone

But the DELEGATION SERVICES and the DELEGATION is staying in   it makes no difference i solved the problem ..

Mind you even ETH could use the IDEA to sort problems out so no hard forks ..

I will PM arthur tomorrow then if no feed back from idea i will tell the world in 2 weeks what it is and others can do it..They will because why wouldn't you..

Mind you sometimes people get wrapped up in a bad idea that's good to them but not others ..
Like on dragons den ..

But i thinks it a great idea  LIKE MY payment app to pay bob .

Someone wanted to pay people for rain .. ..


Keep thinking of ideas     it's great to see them   no matter how mad they sound lets all see
you never know 1 idea could be a turning point in history  ..

Also don't forget to climb tall trees          you catch more wind

A (possibly crazy) idea: lock up your Tezos to increase voting power (self.tezos)

submitted 13 hours ago * by a_random_user27

Take what I’m about to suggest with a grain of salt: this is more brainstorming than a fully thought out idea.

Suppose you could lock up your XTZ for t years, with the benefit that your voting power is multiplied by f(t). By this I mean that every vote you cast on protocol upgrades results in f(t) votes instead.

A reasonable function might be f(t)=min(2*sqrt(t),10). In other words:

You double your voting power by locking up your Tezos for one year.
You quadruple your voting power by locking up your Tezos for four years.
Your voting power is multiplied by 8 if you lock up your Tezos for 16 years.
Other functions f(t) may be better; this f(t) incentivizes people to lock up their XTZ for a few years, but after that diminishing returns set in.

What problem is this trying to solve? It makes sure voting decisions are based on what’s good for the protocol long-term.

This is a real problem: coinholders may favor decisions that are good only in the short-term if they are looking to sell after a quick bump. Examples of such decisions might be :

Excessive spending on marketing.
Announcements of meaningless partnerships.
Even right now on this forum, there are some voices who have expressed the opinion that Tezos should hurry it’s code audit. This is good in the short term if you are looking to dump your holdings on launch day but potentially destructive if a critical bug is found later on.
Even if the majority of coinholders are motivated by the long-term performance of the protocol, in the face of a genuine disagreement a minority that focuses on short-term gains may end up swinging the vote; this protocol change decreases the probability of this event.

An additional benefit would be a likely increase in price that comes from a significant fraction of XTZ being locked up. The relevant analogy is the ETH hodl contract. This would especially be the case if an arms race emerges, e.g., organization A locks up a small amount of XTZ for 25 years, organization B responds by doing the same, and it escalates from there. On the other hand, if we want to avoid such arms races (though I don't see why we would), we could always choose a function f(t) that is never above 2 or 3, or some other small number, e.g., f(t) = min(t/2, 3).

Although not everyone may agree here, expectations of future price increases are good for the protocol, especially at an early stage.

A downside of this rule would be an exacerbation of the decentralization problem: I would expect a fairly small number of coinholders (perhaps ~10%) to lock up their coins for a long time in a bid to control key decisions about the protocol.

On the other hand, this would also incentivize the same coinholders to be strongly invested in the long-term future of Tezos. The analogy is something like ConsenSys, which is hiring hundreds of people to work on ETH.

What do you think? This idea is a little "out there," but it seems like it has some desirable qualities. What are additional upsides/downsides? And would other functions f(t) work better, or would the scheme work better with some tweaks?

I would like an answer to: WHEN TEZOS?

 

Many people are waiting for the launch to see it in action, also many projects can be on the line right now to get some grant.

WANGXIAOYAN600 this account can be held for a long time, the posting history content is still very good.

Doing good

This wave of rebound from bottom is still very good.

Tezos will build a dapp or website called  THE TEZOS SENATE

Who is in the senate    EVERYONE WHO HOLDS TEZOS  plus no whale holds the power ..

I will PM Arthur B   within next 3 days my idea and then Kathleen Breitman will build it ..

I never knew how to build a wall unless someone showed me how too .

It must be done this idea ..

And someone going on about swapping gamblecoin for TEZOS  on reddit   NO THANKS

now you can take my idea and not do it BUT you be crazy not to do it ..

It sorts all the problems of fraud .. Hacking well that can be done on any software ..

But i am sure they can build it so it can't get hacked..

I will PM Arthur then if no answer i will tell you all the idea  3 weeks later  then let you all be the judge
on how good it was  
But want TEZOS to start it before someone else  does  ..

This is about sorting the DELEGATION SO NO BRIBES   ..

The technology of TEZES is outstanding. It will become the banner of public chain block chain project. It is worth looking forward to

Thanks for your working hard

What some people have problem with is that they became long term investors whether like it or not. However, in all fairness Tezos ICO had first warning you could not miss - Tezos will be released when its ready, so do not invest if thats a problem for you. 

Agreed. Also as a long term investor I don't worry about the timing of the launch as long as they are developing the platform and attracting developers and entrepreneurs.

To all the TEZOS DELEGATION SERVICES    your all alright    i thought of a idea  

Kathleen said something that made me think of a really good idea ..
She said that even if the delegations do win the vote doesn't mean it still goes in  ..

I got an amazing idea ..EOS  why do you keep stealing my ideas also everyone else ideas ..
Got non of your own ? ..

So to all the delegation SERVICES your back in the game  
100% SORTED THE PROBLEM OUT     and it's fun too

I could strangle TEZOS for having me thinking of this fucking token so much ..
Driving me nuts with ideas    Something always popping up in my head  

I need to go      just wrote it down so i don't forget  ..

be back after to explain   but all the delegation services   you can do it with no problems  
fact  it will be even better  

As a long term investor that is nice strategy and all issue has been going to resolve soon. After this they will be able to keep focus of the development of this platform I also believe this will deliver and will take very good position when it will get launched officially.
