Boolberry Network Address March 30th 2017Most of the discussion on Boolberry happens on the slack channels. If you are looking for the latest information on Bitcointalk or Reddit, then you won't see it.
The Bi-Weeklies are primarily a synchronization and summary of whats happened on the various slack channels and communication portals, over the last two weeks.
MarketsPoloniex deposit and withdrawals are still down, and this is still Boolberry’s most liquid market. Crypto_Zoidberg has sent Poloniex support some information now.
Roadmap ValidationIn September, the roadmap presented by the Blockchain Development Company stated information about compensating full nodes via a masternode like system.
http://www.blockology.org/s/BoolberryOpportunityRoadmap-BlockchainDevelopmentCompany.pdfA concept called masternodes has been tried on other
networks, and it is a hybrid form of Proof of Stake, while the
mining nodes maintain a Proof of Work system. Masternodes
are an optional form of full node that also maintain a certain
balance in the associated crytocurrency. So for example, a full
node that has 100 BBR (an illustrative example) in its address
would be eligible to report to the network as a masternode and
earn more Boolberry for its participation in the network.
Masternodes would also be subject to additional criteria such
as being highly connectible, having low down time, and more.
Other passive full nodes could function without the complying
with the criteria. Masternodes will allow BBR holders to
earn dividends on their BBR holdings. This means there
would be no immediate reason to sell a stake in BBR, as it will
earn an income for you, and masternodes can become a
competitive business where new speculators will tolerate
lower and lower margins at a higher cost of buying a
masternode.
The reason other networks don’t attempt to compensate nonmining
nodes is because the
concept has theoretical flaws, which have not happened anywhere yet, but have deterred other
networks from pursuing implementation. Specifically the concept of a sybil attack, or other
method where people try to game the system.
Since that time, the market has rediscovered masternodes on some other cryptocurrencies and this is validation for the roadmap and foresight the Blockchain Development Company has.
Crypto_Zoidberg has also stated interest in a staking system on Boolberry in the past.
Due to the fact that Boolberry and other networks have no use for masternodes, but still wish to compensate full nodes, there is a treasury concept that has been presented on the Ethereum blockchain which could be more useful here.
Use this as confidence that the Boolberry developers are ahead of the market in terms of steering Boolberry into what it can be as a valuable asset.
