Muse/SoundDAC / It Looks Like Tidal is Toast. Can Peertracks Succeed Where Tidal Failed?
« on: May 09, 2016, 11:00:33 pm »
It looks like Tidal is a disaster: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3547275/It-s-embarrassing-Rihanna-s-former-publicist-claims-singer-upset-Jay-Z-s-Tidal-music-service-following-disastrous-album-sales.html

Hopefully, Peertracks can bring the crypto-revolution to music and show them how Tidal should have been done. :)

The Ethereum blockchain is up and running: it just works.
  • Contact the guys at UjoMusic: http://ujomusic.com/
  • Negotiate a merger between Peertracks and UjoMusic.
  • Launch the new Peertracks Dapp on the Ethereum blockchain.

Technical Support / Bitshares 0.92 is still not usable on Linux (Fedora 22)
« on: June 24, 2015, 08:22:04 am »
Hello everyone!


I installed version 0.92 of Bitshares several days ago.  I starts up and runs,  but I have not been able to successfully download the entire blockchain.  The client eventually crashes every time.  I am trying again right now.  It's at 15% (434856 of 2927527 blocks downloaded).  It has been at 434856 for a few minutes. 

Here is what happens every time: it will download some of the blockchain (the highest that I have been able to get to is 26%), then it will just stop. The circle is still spinning, but it does not appear that any data is actually being downloaded.  At some point after being stuck at the same block height, the client will just disappear (crash). On next startup, it will complain about corrupt data, and give me the option to reset.  If I reset, it will start downloading the blockchain again from 0%, but it will stick at some point, and the cycle continues over and over again.

At the bottom of the client it says "severe network problems".  It has said this every time I've run the client so far.  Right now, Bitshares 0.92 is not usable for me at all.  I'd appreciate help if anyone know why this is happening.  Thank you!

Muse/SoundDAC / What happens if the Moonstone wallet does not meet its funding goal?
« on: May 26, 2015, 10:39:38 am »
The Moonstone wallet crowdsourcing campaign is only 18% funded with 16 days left (https://moonstone.io/).  It does not seem that it is being promoted at all, so I suspect that most people don't even know about it.  I have a few questions:
  • Why wasn't Moonstone crowdsourced in parallel with the Peertracks crowdsource?   I think that it would have raised a lot more money if it had been able to benefit from the notoriety of the Peertracks project.
  • Why is the Moonstone crowdsource not being actively promoted (as far as I can tell) on social media (Reddit, Facebook, Twitter etc)?
  • If Moonstone does not meet its funding goal, how will this impact the delivery of Peertracks?

Thanks in advance for any answers.

Muse/SoundDAC / Azealia Banks and Bitshares Music / PeerTracks
« on: December 28, 2014, 06:29:21 pm »
Hello all!

I grew up during the 1980s which I considered to be the last golden era of music, until recent experiences changed my mind.  Azealia Banks is an AMAZING artist that gives me the same goosebumps that I felt when I first heard Michael Jackson and Prince back in 1982/1983. 

Here is one of her most popular songs:

She is captivating.  Whether you love or hate her music, she knows how to grab people's attention.  I just sent her a message on Youtube to let her know about Peertracks.com and BitShares Music (if she has not already heard of them).  I told her that I believe that she would absolutely blow up on PeerTracks.  She has made some statements recently that guarantee her a loyal following.  She said things that were extremely courageous that you NEVER hear from a big artist that has a lot to lose. 

Let's show her some love, and let her know that some of the injustices that she references would be solved by a decentralized music platform where artists CANNOT be exploited.

If you want to hear some of her thoughts on societal issues, this interview is a very good starting point:

Sincerely,
Philogus
