I am afraid that BM may not take too kindly to me with my post history as they are usually quite critical.

I bet he appreciates it more than post's that are saying only good words...
Smart people can benefit more from criticism...

Ahhhh, awesome!  These 1 second block times are making my head spin!

Is this just testing for private internal systems or is this really being considered a possibility for the public BTS blockchain?

From bitshares.org:

"As soon as the software is ready, it will enter a public testing period for gathering community feedback. This testing period will last until the community is satisfied with the new system, after which an upgrade snapshot date will be announced with at least 30 days notice.

At the snapshot, the current BitShares network will stop producing blocks and BitShares 2.0 will be launched within hours. All accounts and balances will be fully migrated to BitShares 2.0.

See Migrating to BitShares 2.0 for more details."

Regarding the 1 second block times though?

I've been getting this message for several days =  (Network error,  please try again later. (get_config)
I have deleted and reinstalled the app multiple times, tried manual and auto login on 2 different android devices, but still no bitsharestalk access (Play & PTS working fine)

Is anybody else encountering the same issue?

Looks like the majority of the very small minority of the bitshares community that actually voted in this thread chose to redistribute 26-22 and of those the  "10% to 38PTSWarior, 21% to bitsharesbreakout, 18% to btstools.digitalgaia, 18% to fav, 18% to Bunkermining" seems to be the majority choice.

Slight correction.

Let's not forget about incentives and which votes may carry greater gain for the individual voters themselves vs gain for bitshares as a whole.

Let's also not forget that there is no way (other than maybe mods or admin using IP, and we know nobody is this community would have access to multiple rigs using different IP's)  to determine which votes may have been made with alternate or multiple user accounts.

Example: I have voted in this thread, but only with 1 account and not with this one ;D

I chose to burn because I see value in keeping constructively critical members like Thom running a delegate.

With that said, I do believe 38PTSWarrior, bitsharesbreakout, digitalgaia and fav to all be more than worthy and deserving of a delegate spot  :)

General Discussion / Re: BTC Guild is Closing Down
« on: June 16, 2015, 04:41:02 am »
Or, look at this blasphemy:

Quote
As mining has become more centralized, BTC Guild has continuously shrunk in proportion to the network, now being less than 3% of the network hash rate. The costs of running the pool have not changed, and the amount of funds at risk in the event of a compromise is significantly higher than what the pool could ever recover from. When the pool was 20-30% of the network, the amount of funds at risk was slightly higher, but the ability for the pool to recover from that loss was present. At 3% of the network, the pool would not be able to recover from such a loss..

Looks like somebody didn't get the denial memo.

General Discussion / Re: Cryptonomex? WTF is this?
« on: June 15, 2015, 04:34:02 am »
@Dan and Stan:
We just hope that you can consider a "better" aligning of interest between BTS, the devs and cryptonomex. A great example is RippleLabs, the legal entity's success is closely tied to the success of the protocol. RippleLabs helps integrations, consults partners and trains more devs. They actively seek deals and partnerships to expand the ecosystem. So their aim is to make Ripple successful so their (the legal entity's) stash will be worth billions. On the other hand, i was given the impression that cryptonomex (the devs) and BTS's interests have never been less aligned. In the last hangout, fuzzy asked whether cryptonomex will be holding fund in BTS because of this concern i believe, but Dan didn't see it.

All the issues with IP and licenses aside, I hope cryptonomex reconsiders its business strategy and direction. Let's try to work out a relationship analogous to Ripple - RippleLabs, because it seems like it works (big partners coming in, better prospect of mainstream adoption, millions of funding, all the mistakes that can be learnt from). The details should be of course modified to fit our ecosystem here at BTS.

All in all, I am not saying that cryptonomex and the devs are abandoning BTS, and not that they are not bringing in deals and partnerships; but a better alignment of interests and goals would be even better.

Ripple labs has a huge sake in ripple, thus their interest are aligned, I3 has a good stake in PTS then BTS, but the greedy stan and BM are not happy, they tried everything in the books to increase their stake, AGS/PTS, DPOS, Merger and paid delegate, still not enough, now Cryptonomex and toolkit, how many ways to fleece the BTS holders? take your buggy toolkit and leave please! BTS community should kick them out, byebye BM!

For some reason, I get the feeling this guy would sit LeBron after tonight because the Cavs are losing the Finals.

Anybody else with me?

This sounds terrific.

Questions:

1. Will this allow for private voting, as questioned previously by Akado? ( - Private voting should work just fine given Bitshares stake voting method - )

2. Will the contract payment be subject to a significant vesting schedule?


I'd like to see the community use the opportunity of this first new worker proposal to begin a practice of requiring a reasonable percentage and duration for vesting large payments. Obviously, not all workers will be able to delay large amounts for excessive amounts of time. However, I'd like to see most workers employed by Bitshares make this offer as a proof-of-faith in both the potential benefit of their particular proposal to Bitshares overall value, as well as the Bitshares community, in general.

Because incentives.

bytemaster, will the community be able to invest in Cryptonomex directly through a BTS UIA?

It would be great to see Cryptonomex eat the BTS dogfood with something this important.

Additionally, would a sharedrop on the table for BTS, PTS or AGS holders?
