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.

IDentabit / Token.io - Identabit competition?
« on: September 02, 2015, 01:04:48 am »
It's looking like a more Ripple/Stellar-like competitor to Identabit from what I can understand.

Has anybody heard anything else about this project?

Because this project is potentially ginormous, has anybody heard anything since March?

Licensed CNX chain?
Fork?
Crypti?
Custom in-house?

I came in an hour late and missed most the good stuff.

In the little I have caught so far, John quickly became one of my &(*#^$(@* favorite people in the community.   ;D

If anyone has a raw recording that they can post or send right after it ends, please PM me.

Thanks.

Guess you missed the bit about new baby Snowden Underwood - yup!

In that case...Fixed.

I am imagining a countdown clock in the top left or right corner of the wallet that will stay at 100% until the month ends and will begin to count down during decay to show the voter how much voting power their votes currently command.


QUESTION: Does 2.0 allow for transaction free voting?
                     If not, what would be the fees for voting, updating, etc.?

I suggest that randomization be used so that within a particular range but not precisely predictable the votes will expire. So in my opinion any time between 2 weeks and 1 month the votes should expire. This way not all votes expire at exactly the same time which will make a person have to pay more attention to voting and vote more frequently.

I think the decay is an elegant enough solution to that problem though, no?

The votes will not expire immediate, just slowly begin decaying in voting power - which should avoid sudden shifts of witnesses when relatively large votes begin to expire.

There must be a balance. If they are bothered to vote too often, you risk voter burnout, imo.

I think that 1x/month will work OK for many and still be often enough to remove stale witnesses.

I like the idea of 1 month full strength (so that you dont have to adjust more than once a month to maintain full strength, followed by a half life period.  I would say 1 year half life.

If one of our main goals with this method is to remove stale/non-performing delegates, I don't think we will want anything longer than a 1 month half life.

A 1m BTS vote will still have ~ 250k strength @ 3 months -  a lot can happen (or not happen) within that time.


I think the countdown reminder with the free monthly vote would be enough to encourage the voter refresh and engagement we are looking for without stretching it out too long.

It would also be useful if the witness was able to view how many / what percentage of their votes are in decay to allow them the ability to communicate with their supporters via forum/email/whatever .

^^^^This will allow a similar function to that of our transaction referral system does - in outsourcing the incentives more greatly toward the witnesses to encourage continuous, active voter participation.

Updating your account will be cheaper than transfers.  Probably just $0.01 with lifetime membership.

Would it be possible to allow for 1 free vote per month (assuming 1 month voting renewal) per account? Allowing, of course, for additional vote changes throughout the month - but only charging after the first free vote?
If this can work and avoid network spamming, I think this would be good for the sales pitch and will help avoid any attempts to slander that Bitshares *charges* users to vote.

1 month @ full strength, begin 1 month half-life decay-rate (with decay-rate occurring per block).

The 1 month voting renewal period is more important when you recognize that it will most likely reward the Bitshares platform, in general, by having the higher amount of full strength votes coming from those most active in the community and with the product.

This is part of elegance that places bitshares on a level above the competition.

The audiobook example sounded to me as something that could be done through MUSE and Peertracks.

If not, what is missing from MUSE and Peertracks that would prevent providing those services?

Only referring to the delegate voting system in general:

Have we ever considered the pros and cons of vote expiration dates, say 365 days or so? Or maybe losing a percentage of that person's vote over time unless continuously reaffirmed?


Like voting a delegate into a term in office?

That might keep people more active...

Not really. More as a tool/method to avoid stale delegates remaining active after their active support has faded.

I can imagine the wallet getting updates when the initial vote time expires, reminding the wallet owner to reallocate their votes.
