For those wondering, trading is still enabled on BTER, but withdrawals are disabled on most exchanges as we wait to get contact back that they have fully updated.

Boris is working on it.

OK...  the problem was the version of node.js that the NODE wallet had installed on my workstation.

I uninstalled & installed the version that is in the CryptiWallet folder and it WORKS FINE!!!   Grin


Edit:  In case anyone is wondering...  the NODE wallet still works too!   Wink

Glad to hear you got it working!

Here is something that needs fixing in the Windows Client. First of all, I like the ability to switch between forging, account, and blockchain once you are connected to your account.

The problem I have is when you are in the client before logging into your account if you choose to enter the forging panel in the upper right corner
there is no way to get back to the account log in page. The only way is the close the client and restart and then you have to wait for the blockchian
to load again. Unless I'm missing something obvious.

BTW, the new wallet/node does not show the number of forged blocks which your node forged.  You can only check the ACCOUNT tab to see if your balance went up.

The NRP, Node Reward Program is up and running as well..........  paying .375 XCR per forged block average.  SO get those wallet nodes up and forging!!!

Windows 8.1 2in1 laptop running Crypti Windows Client like a champ. Indeed it took around 10 minutes to dl the blockchain. Indeed it uses 250MB.
My previous forking issues where transactions from the client not being recognized are solved. Crypti 2.0 has finally arrived to the party fashionably late.
After DPOS and custom blockchains are complete I could be rich after all. Oh what a feeling, Toyota.

Disclaimer: I own a lot of Crypti. Don't listen to me.

Version 1.0.9 windows installs in about 10 mins.  The BC downloads/syncs in about 10 mins now, instead of the 2.5 hrs previously.

Easy navigation from FORGING page to ACCOUNT and BLOCKCHAIN page.  

Node only using 250MB RAM, on Win7 64 bit

Guys, I have a second announcement to make Grin.

I've setup an alternative crypti blockchain explorer, now available at: http://cryptichain.me/.

Featuring a new Activity Graph developed by myself (http://cryptichain.me/activityGraph). This new page provides an interesting live graphical visualisation of the latest transactions on the Crypti blockchain. Double tap/click on a node to focus onto it. Single tap/click on a node to inspect it. Then click the top-right button to open the selected transaction, block or account in the block explorer.

There is more work to be done, but already this graph is providing some very useful insight.

This is the initial release, changelog available here: https://github.com/karmacoma/cryptichain/releases/tag/0.2.

All issues, feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy... Wink

CryptiKit Update - Simple & easy Crypti node deployment and management.

Hello Smiley,

Coinciding with the release of Crypti 0.1.9. It gives me great pleasure to announce a new version of CryptiKit. In addition to the mandatory changes for compatibility with the new Crypti API, it contains numerous bug fixes and improvements to the underlying code.

Please download here: https://github.com/karmacoma/cryptikit/releases/tag/v1.8.0

If you don't know about CryptiKit and what it can do already, please read here:
- https://github.com/karmacoma/cryptikit/blob/v1.8.0/README.md

I release regular updates to maintain momentum so if you need to catch up, please read the Changelog:
- https://github.com/karmacoma/cryptikit/blob/v1.8.0/Changelog.md

For help and advice using CryptiKit, feel free to contact me directly on #CryptiTalk IRC or using the child board: http://cryptitalk.com/index.php/board,23.0.html at CryptiTalk.com.

Status Update

Version 0.1.9 is now LIVE. Linux, Mac, and Windows distributions are all available for download. The exchanges are still not back live (apparently because it is the weekend) so we decided to go ahead and release to everyone while we wait on them. We have updated the web wallet and explorer and everything looks good. This is a huge milestone for us and we are really excited for everyone to get it up and running and see the optimizations and improvements made. You should now be able to run on a 512 mb node easily and you should notice the differences immediately if you have been with us for a while.

Next we will start testing 0.2.0 (DPOS) and discussing our solution and how it will work. We will also be releasing the new website very soon. We have almost all pages coded and are tweaking the content.

Six months(august) ago SyRenity told me this in our conversation, 

(this is a translation)

"After we finish launching Crypti and start a few interesting collaborations we will also begin the local activities like meetups an more..

We prefer to have a product with tangible benefits which we can present to the community"


So... where do we stand today ?

Relaunching  Huh

I understand how delegates are elected, what I was referring to was the implementation of the entire delegate system. I don't believe that it has to be inflationary but we will get into all of this much more once we start discussing our implementation of DPOS. I would love to have you around for the debate and to raise any arguments or bring merit to what decisions we make. Right now we are focused on posting 0.1.9 and updating everyone and then we will get into more details on our implementation.

Can I think this is the stark fake?

To be completely honest, i'm not even sure what you're saying..


I understand now, XCR is a clone of the bts.

If that is what you got from what we said then you didn't read it correctly. However it would be fair to say that parts of the backbone infrastructure will be adaptations of the DPOS model created by the bitshares team, yes. I personally don't want to hide from that fact. I think basing our system on DPOS is a positive thing as it has proven to be one of the most influential, stable, and secure systems we have seen. I suspect you might see others taking a second look at DPOS in the next 6-12 months.

All of the other facets of Crypti that we have discussed all along are still being built and will still run on Crypti, the consensus model and network will simply be based on DPOS. This allows a scalable, secure, and equitable network to be built with much more relative ease. Why start over again from scratch when someone has already solved some of the problems we were running into and proven that it works and works wonderfully. DPOS and the success of the Bitshares network is a great advancement in the crypto space and allows for a scalable network, rewards those running the network, and that is still, for all intents and purposes, decentralized. There are some things about the way they implement delegates, reward them, and burn currency that we feel don't necessarily fit what we are doing and will be changing. But, overall, the core infrastructure will be largely based on what they have done.
Delegates are not implemented they are elected. The idea behind payd delegates is that they have to bring more value to the network than they cost, so it's not neccesarly rewarding as such but more a salary. They get hired and paid by the blockchain.
However this is only possible by inflation. The pay rate differences from 3% to 100% the difference is being burned, to bring value to the shareholders.

The inflation debate was a long one, and not everybody agreed. But I think that in the long run, that BTS with it's current inflationary DPOS system is the only self sustaining crypto project out there.

There is already PTS who has switched to DPOS, but they have chosen the deflationary model. Wich is fine because they are basically an share drop token. The main reason for the switch was that the pow chain died.

So with all this being said, I would really like to know how you envision your version of DPOS.

I suggest to analyze the issue described in https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10184529 before moving further.
Or set the security limit to 67 delegates instead of 51 until we get a formal proof that 51 is indeed enough.

Thanks for your comments! Number of delegates is one of the things we are paying very close attention to and discussing internally. As mentioned, we will be making some changes and tweaks to our version of DPOS. After 0.1.9 is officially out and the network looks good, we will start discussing our DPOS solution much more. We would love to get your input as we release more information and discuss how we plan to implement. We actually have it ready to enter testing and will have an extensive test phase to ensure we are happy with everything.

Any other input or your outlook on DPOS or possible areas of interest would be great to hear! Thanks!
