Long time no post!
We have been completely pre-occupied with solving the slow page loading problems on the site. It turns out, after much investigation, and bringing on two great new devs to the team (we are all volunteers) that we had the following problems:
1) Incorrect use of standard datatypes (Varchars) in database tables and MySQL queries,
2) Apache poorly configured,
3) Excessive use of inner joins in our MySQL queries,
4) Many more horrible little bugs.
As soon as the above were fixed 24 hrs ago, page loading speeds reduced by 90% and new claims went through the roof!
OK, one of the recent questions on here was how can you claim?
All you have to do is visit the POWtoken.com site and have a valid Facebook or Twitter account which you use to "claim". The account must have bee created before Sept 15th 2017.
You will be issued POW'lite'. This is essentially and IOU for real POW which exists on the blockchain.
We are building a "bridge" between POWtoken.com and the Ethereum Blockchain which is now hoped to be ready for end of Feb.
Yes we promised it would be ready in Dec 2017! Yes we then promised it would be ready in Jan 2018. We darn hope it will be ready in Feb 2018, but you know what, we are trying our best, so if its not ready, get over it - you may have heard that sometimes tech projects overrun!
As said above, we are
all volunteers, none of us have sold any POW ERC20 for our own benefit (some POW has been paid to cover server costs),
but no POW has been used to pay any expenses or salaries for dev team.
The dev team is now 6 strong, with awesome experienced, talented individuals - so we're super excited for 2018.
:-)
And yes, we hope McAfee announces his support soon!
Cheers
Devs
[email protected]Hello, Dev!
Thank you for your information, it is very important for all of us - to know that the POWteam continues to work on the project and has long-term plans!
I am ready to support your work and I will be happy to also know - do you have any plans to promote the project using bounty campaigns?
Now I have 2 different accounts - in Facebook and Twitter. When can they be combined into one? Or is it not planned to do until the moment when you connect the cabinets to the eth blockchain?
