maybe we can someone from nubits team on here to join this discussion..

What did you guys want to know? We're very friendly. You can come join our board if you have any questions :D discuss.nubits.com

I may not be from the NuBits team, but I'm quite familiar with it :)
Aren't we all friendly? :D

Ehhhhh I'm not sure I would go that far given the posts I read about NuBits on here over the past year, but it's nice to see ponzi scheme isn't being thrown around so loosely anymore.

Touché!

I think the spreadsheet is locked for anyone to edit now, but once the controllers update it you can reference it for accuracy. I've been taking screenshots of the mumble as a backup but so far they have delivered correctly for my attendance, albeit after a little delay :-)

 Outside of the 2.0 launch specifics for BTS, I think the Chinese stock market troubles will bring some $$$ back to crypto. Also, if you look at CMC there appears to be some manipulation going on across crypto in general.

[.
Share list of "who and how much brownie.pts bytemaster gave" it's up to bytemaster brownie.pts his token.

and this is the point i disagree.

- Forming Cryptonomex and doing BTS 2.0 none open-source was a huge change, without discussion
- sharedroping not only on BTS Community, but now decide who is active and who is not, is also a huge change, without discussion (sure, they talked about it in the inner circle, but not with "us")

For this reason it will helpful to make it public who got all the brownie.pts in the beginning. This it not a personal UIA from bytemaster anymore, because it was decided to sharedrop on them.
Underwood said it is bytemasters decision to who he wants to sharedrop. So if i understand this correct, it was not decided from Underwood to sharedrop to brownie.pts, but to make sure that the
active part of the community get more.

As I said before - the brownies idea is extremely stupid... enormously idiotic... nonsense of massive proportions bull ...[continue cursing but lacking  colourful  enough translation in English]...
Just look at who is posting the above - not some common idiot but the 2nd person behind the only independent gateway-metaexchange....

+5%. This ^^^.

When Tony says buy you buy.
A trully elevating feeling to see 2.0 coming of age.  :)
Load testing at 100K TPS will not be viable with standard network connections.
I see, thanks for the reply. Well I'm sure as we start to test transactions speed, that even at a relatively low number for BitShares, it's still a huge number compared with other projects
Yea. I wonder if it is possible to show that we can achieve 100K TPS in a Local Area Network (LAN) and an average maximum speed at XXX TPS for LIVE network due to a limitation of an witness node Internet speed averaged out.  This can satisfy our claim that bts can achieve 100K TPS if and when the Internet bandwidth reaches LAN speed.

 
good idea    lan   Low latency ,Pressure test mining limit and find bottlenecks

@bytemaster @Stan - to prove it, just take your phone and video record a 1min clip or something showing a split screen. CLI on one side and xeroc's new tps gauge (http://stats.bitshares.eu) on the other side, then post it to the YT 2.0 vids (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjbx3qSmDe7QO5WHjpx6w3o_xQD6JLm4R).

Please, do this! You know the positive impact it would have  +5% +5% +5%

Agreed!!

Just an aside - I am so impressed by Fox. Dude has very calmly and quietly made huge contributions to BTS - and done so in a very thoughtful, professional manner. Kudos to you, sir.

We'll be handing out sharedrops of 30 MKR per person (who confirms via voice or through recognizable forum name they are a real/unique person).

I will be administering the sharedrop between 11:30  and 12:00. At 12:00 Toast, our lead developer, and possibly other Maker contributors will join and we'll explain the Maker DAO project as well as answering any questions related to Maker, Ethereum or BitShares.

Sweet! +5%

Meta / Re: how to use the forum mention
« on: September 03, 2015, 12:49:15 pm »
well  +5% for trying to help us "simple" users @fav  ;D

level wise of course :)

but I doubt there is an easy fix... I proposed to move to a 2.0 forum with nice features and so on... but many users didn't want a change :<

We have avoided doing much with forums at dposhub specifically because bitsharestalk already exists and we are not looking to compete with the type of talk that goes on here... . are you suggesting there should be another space for bitshares only stakeholders?

a bit OT but it would be perfectly legit to have a "private" forum for stakeholders, and DPOSHUB is the right place. in 2.0 you can easily proof that you are one. entry level 100k or something. I would welcome this.

^^ I think that is a very good idea.

If I understand this correctly they wrote their own code to institute DPOS.  I don't think they owe us anything.  I'm glad they're using DPOS, and hope they are very successful.  I'm not as motivated to help as I would be if I owned a chunk, and that is a valid point, but by no means a deal breaker in regards to my support.  I'll try to take the time to learn about them.

Well said Puppies! I agree!

Ethereum has done a better job at underpromising and overdelivering, marketing 101.  They basically have told average users to stay far, far away with the frontier release.  In hindsight, bitshares should have done the same with their first release.  Realistically, both projects are probably near the same stage of development.
...

I think we can take a leaf out of Ethereum's 'under promised and over delivered' approach.  Investors jumped in joyful celebration when Ethereum delivered their first working version.

Bitshares or rather CNX has 'promised' a number of new features with BTS 2.0 - '1 second block intervals', 'over 100,000 transactions per second', 'user-friendly hosted wallet interface', 'financial smart contract features', 'tools for community feedback', 'referral system', 'developer-friendly and extensible codebase', and 'Transferable Named Accounts'.

Investors are not too happy but OK with the promised features delivered 2-month late, 6-month late or even 1-year later than the estimated delivery date - as long as Bitshares delivers all these wonderful promised features.  But they are certainly NOT OK with a 2-month or 6-month late delivery with one or worst, more of the promised features removed or reduced with so-called compromises. 

Let's surprise our investors with 'over joy' rather than 'deep disappointment'.

Well said!

I would like to see Mesh Networks begin to proliferate as a solution to ISP censorship. Here's a cool article about how FireChat was used during the protests in Hong Kong.

General Discussion / TOP 3 REASONS TO BUY BITSHARES NOW!
« on: August 30, 2015, 11:09:51 pm »
1.) Graphene toolkit is some serious, serious code. As CNX develops and sells private chains for enterprise customers, other businesses interested in the tech will see BTS as a playground to test the waters. This will bring liquidity and end users as the testers will also uncover the personal consumer value of BTS.

2.) BTC is gaining media and mainstream exposure everyday. BTC was the first hole in the dam, but the break is inevitable given the potential for crypto/blockchain tech. Even if BTS doesn't take over the world, it's going to be one part of the revolution.

3.) the price is a lot lower than when I bought in and I'm trying to lower my average.

General Discussion / Re: No Sommer Announcements for the week?
« on: August 29, 2015, 10:58:15 am »

Announcements do not have value. Software does. Until 2.0 is official and the referral program is operational, words are just words.

No, words give the wise insight into what will surely be.

By the time the conditions exist that you describe, the answer will be obvious to everyone and the biggest investment opportunities will have passed.

In some endeavors is pays to be skeptical.  But when the open source and test nets and hours of mumble press conferences are happening before your very eyes, skepticism is just a way to avoid doing the hard work of examining the plain evidence for yourself.

This is the way it should be.  To the diligent go the rewards.  The rest are left saying, "Why don't I ever get a break?"

:)

Stan,

I attend the mumble hangouts. I've played around with a witness node on my RPI2. I'm aware of what the technical possibilities and opportunities are of BitShares 2.0...so I wouldn't say I am "avoiding the hard work of examining the plain evidence."

My point is that an announcement in of itself, is not worth anything. You can (and do) make announcements all summer long, but if none of them actually pan out - what are they worth? You cannot guarantee anything. Past history proves this.

When 2.0 was announced, BM said "this summer". We will see about that. I'm a HODLer - don't get me wrong...all I'm saying is that your announcements are not worth what you think they are to many community members here.
