Updates: A once in a lifetime trip got me and my family on the road after SteemFest in Bangkok.

Obviously I have been monitoring my services and got help from the monitoring scripts:

1. Once missed 7 blocks in a row before backup switched and continued producing afterwards. It appeared to be a network connectivity issue with the hosting provider.

2.  My pricefeed script was outdated and not working according to BAIP2. This has been fixed by installing a brand new pricefeed server. However my BAIP historic feed collection is not complete yet as it just started fresh with collecting and storing feeds, which means my feeds are a little bit off the chart. I expect this to be evened out in the coming 24 hours.

Thank you for your continued support and trust.

roelandp would like to continue providing price feeding service according to the community's consensus.

i hope the consensus changes somewhat tho :)

尊敬的CN-Vote,

ZB修复问题后,我使用了错误的配置文件。 此配置文件没有“ global_settlement_protection”。 很抱歉您的错误并冒着您的资金风险。

希望您能原谅我并重新考虑为我作证。

对于您下次亲自与我联系,我真的很希望这样做,这是由我的价格供稿中使用了错误的config.yaml文件引起的。

谢谢您的考虑,

Roelandp


===============

Dear CN-Vote,

I was using the wrong config file after the ZB fixing issue. This config file did not have the "global_settlement_protection" . I am sorry for the mistake and risking your funds.

I hope you can forgive me and reconsider voting for me as a witness.

For the next time I would really like it better if you would reach out to me personally, this was caused by using the wrong config.yaml file in my pricefeed.

Thank you for your consideration,

Roelandp

Dear CN-Vote

i would be very honoured if with your next actions you try to reach out to me as a person.

Ive restarted the bitshares-chain in the past 2 years 2 or 3 times, have always been here with debugging, fixes and adding new requirements. Thank you @schiessl for your recognition.

It would be great if next time you would communicate prior to your actions. Minimum you could consider doing is pinging me on telegram or in a private message. I would not know how else I can know about your actions.

Just as with the worker proposals this is in my opinion pretty damaging and toxic in terms of working together and creating harmony. I was always thinking: we are in this together, but this more feels like I was a burden and needs to get rid off.

For your information, I don't speak chinese, but I will now to translate your message.

==== For your convenience I have already done this with the above message:

尊敬的CN-Vote

如果您在接下来的行动中尝试与他人取得联系,我将感到非常荣幸。

Ive在过去2年或3年内重新启动了bitshares-chain,一直在这里进行调试,修复和添加新要求。 感谢@schiessl的认可。

如果下次您在操作前进行交流,那将是很好的。 您至少可以考虑在电报或私人消息中对我执行ping操作。 我不知道我还能怎么知道你的行为。

就像工人的提议一样,在我看来,这在合作和创造和谐方面是非常有害和有害的。 我一直在想:我们在一起,但这更像是我的负担,需要摆脱。

供您参考,我不会说中文,但现在我将翻译您的信息。

感谢您的时间!

亲爱的中国BTS利益相关者,

我非常尊重地请你注意你对1.14.209的投票--SteemFest Bitshares赞助。


如果您考虑投票支持工人提案ID的剩余支付时间,那就太棒了:1.14.209  -  201907-steemfest。 Bitshares SteemFest赞助。

SteemFest是石墨烯社区活动,它吸引了众多开发人员并将“普通人”加入到加密货币中。因为Steem和Bitshares之间有很多相似之处,所以转换和推广我们的链条是一个容易的目标。

SteemFest工作人员每天支付3756 BTS,如果支付窗口再次打开,则只能获得约40-50K人民币。

这些资金将用于在SteemFest参与者下大力推广Bitshares,并保证在活动中进行Bitshares演示。

请注意,所需资金已部分收集。这是在筹集400K退款之前。 Bitshares徽标已经出现在SteemFest网站上,赞助商已经公布。

为了挽救Bitshares链,SteemFest组织没有公布这一突然取消的公告。但它确实直接损害了活动资金。在非营利性活动中,预算非常紧张,任何类似的取消都是严重的损失。

信息:SteemFest仅要求3%的资金,例如移动应用程序或其他事件合作伙伴工作者提案。

SteemFest组织依靠Bitshares的资金,因为它在紧缩措施之前已经适当投票。这是Bitshares闪耀的变化!

谢谢你的考虑,

Dear Chinese BTS stakeholders,

with utmost respect I ask your attention to consider your vote for 1.14.209 - SteemFest Bitshares Sponsorship.

it would be great if you would consider your vote for the left-over payment time for worker-proposal-id: 1.14.209 - 201907-steemfest. Bitshares SteemFest sponsorship.

SteemFest is the graphene community event drawing a mix of developers and onboarding "normal people" into cryptocurrency. Because there are so many similarities between Steem and Bitshares it is an easy goal to convert and promote our chain.

The SteemFest worker pays 3756 BTS per day and will receive only about 40-50K CNY should the payment window open again.

The funds will be used to heavily promote Bitshares under SteemFest attendees and guarantees a Bitshares presentation at the event.

Please note that the needed funds have been partially collected. This was before the raising of the 400K-refund. Bitshares logo was already present on SteemFest website and the sponsorship had been announced.

To save the Bitshares-chain, the SteemFest organization is not making a public announcement out of this sudden cancellation. But it does hurt the event funding directly. With a non-profit event, the budget is very tight and any cancellations like this is a serious loss.

Info: SteemFest only requests 3% of the funding of for example the Mobile App or other event partnerships worker-proposals.

SteemFest organisation counts on the Bitshares funding as it was properly voted in prior to the austerity measures. This is a change for Bitshares to shine!

Thank you for your considering,

Witness Outage explained.  A Perfect Storm

During the day & night of 11 - 12 september 2019 my witness stopped producing blocks for several hours, so bad. This is an unforgivable failure and should not have happened, with multiple failovers running and a monitoring script in place to automatically switch.

But still it happened.... What was going on?
It appears a perfect storm happened: Segfaulted main node (?) meh. And my witnessMonitorFailover script got stuck so I did not receive notifications to check. This is the first time in 1000+ days producing blocks.

After investigating it was an outlying coincidence: The server provider on which I have my monitoring script running, had an unexpected maintenance to the vps environment rack (?!!), causing the script to become unresponsive. (FYI i have bitshares related nodes in 3 different providers @ 4 different physical locations).

Most painful thing was that I relied 100% on my failover script. I was missing blocks while literally sitting behind my computer. And even when I launch my browser I have an overview page about witness work opened by default, ... But i didnt launch a new browser... Bummer.

Learning:
- double redundancy on failover scripts or at least a monitoring & notify tool on a second server is not such a bad idea + don't forget to check all nodes before going to bed (!)

Sorry for unwantingly delaying your transactions and I will learn from this.

See you on the chain & thank you for your continued support,

RoelandP

The SteemFest worker had been voted in for about 1/4th of its duration. It managed to gather about 1/3rd of desired funds for the sponsorship. After which the 400K drama (imho) unfolded.

Unless the worker change to "paying / vesting" status again (either by additional votes from CN-community members or by lowering the 400K refunder) SteemFest cannot decide else but only remove certain deliverables from the sponsorship deal:

- no free tickets and no free ticket competitions on Steemit.com (very nice way of promoting BTS by people making promo campaigns, telling about BTS in their own words)
- no guaranteed speaking slot for BTS at SteemFest
- no advertisement in program booklet.

The SteemFest budget is counting on this full worker sponsor budget of 80000 CNY.
The funds are used to lower the ticketprice for all attending visitors of the event. The event-budget is carefully calculated with revenue streams like the BTS sponsorship.
With the BTS sponsorship now in uncertainty this leads to no trust in the BTS worker system and the BTS blockchain.

Because the funds lacking, the loss will be for SteemFest: balance sheet going negative. But the real loser will be Bitshares ecosystem.

There is still hope however! Funding period is not over and the worker can be finished successfully. Anyone can still decide to start voting for the SteemFest worker! 1.14.209 is the id.

Thanks for reconsidering.



SteemFest工作人员已经投票了大约1/4的持续时间。它设法收集了大约1/3的所需资金用于赞助。之后400K剧(imho)展开了。

除非工人再次改为“支付/归属”状态(通过CN社区成员的额外投票或降低400K补偿),否则SteemFest不能决定其他,只能从赞助协议中删除某些可交付成果:

 -  Steemit.com上没有免费门票和免费门票比赛(人们制作促销活动,用他们自己的话讲述BTS的非常好的方式促进BTS)
 - 在SteemFest没有保证BTS的发言时间
 - 节目册中没有广告。

SteemFest预算指望这个完整的工人赞助商预算为80000元人民币。
这些资金用于降低活动参与者的票价。事件预算是通过像BTS赞助这样的收入来仔细计算的。
由于BTS赞助现在处于不确定状态,这导致对BTS工作人员系统和BTS区块链的信任。

由于资金缺乏,损失将由SteemFest:资产负债表变为负面。但真正的输家将是Bitshares生态系统。

然而仍有希望!资金周期尚未结束,工人可以顺利完成。任何人仍然可以决定开始为SteemFest工作者投票! 1.14.209是id。

谢谢你重新考虑。

亲爱的CN社区,

代表SteemFest活动,我们恳请您考虑为SteemFest投票支持边际工作人员。

由于今天筹集了40万工人,该活动的赞助在资金筹措期间被切断。

如果您可以考虑投票,并考虑参加SteemFest,那就太棒了! Steem实际上是将人们加入到加密中的区块链。并且通过命名帐户,归属和来自部分相同代码库的相似性,两个社区可以相互学习并相互造成冲突。

此外,现在削减赞助商将是关于Steem社区BTS的一个可悲信号。

IIRC预算要求8万元人民币约占去年总支出的0.4%,这是一项重要的合作伙伴关系。

原始BitsharesTalk  -  https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=28660.0(包括中文翻译下面的介绍)。

我知道必须节省开支,我尊重你对400K工人的投票,但这实际上削减了中间的项目。在我看来,这是一个不好的信号:Bitshares不可信任。

非常感谢你。

Dear CN community,

On behalf of the SteemFest event, we are kindly asking you to consider voting for the marginal worker for SteemFest.

Due to todays raise in 400K worker, the event's sponsorship has been cut off in the middle of its funding.

It would be great if you can consider a vote, and consider attending SteemFest even! Steem is really the blockchain onboarding people onto crypto. And with similarities such as named accounts, vesting and being from the partially same code-base, both communities can learn from each other and inflict each other.

Additionally cutting of the sponsorship now, would be a pityfull signal about BTS in the Steem community.

IIRC the budget asked 80K CNY is about 0.4% of the total payouts of last year, for a significant partnership.

Original BitsharesTalk - https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=28660.0  (includes chinese translation below intro post).

I understand savings must be made, and I respect your vote for the 400K worker, but this literally cuts of projects in the middle. This is a bad signal in my opinion: Bitshares can't be trusted.

Thank you very much.

General Discussion / Re: Huge spending will lead to the collapse of BTS
« on: August 27, 2019, 07:28:48 pm »
      I think our differences lie mainly in our different positions.

      I hold bts, so I want to raise the price, and you are workers, do not own bts, so you do not care about the price.You want to get paid by  worker.

      Similarly, the BTS in the BEOS account is not his own, and he doesn't care about the price too. He just wants to take money from workers.

     I hope all BEOS supporters will realize this.

Yes I do hold BTS, about 500K across a couple of accounts, I'm vested in this platform and thats why I would like to promote it.

Ok the Decentralized Greece worker has been voted back in, thats a good signal. Personally i would be happy to see SteemFest also voted back in, but i'm biased :)

see the worker proposal here: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=28660.0

thx.

           None of the projects have been fully allocated except for one worker named “steemfest”.
   

Hi, thanks for voicing your opinion. The worker SteemFest has not yet met its target - it is an error on the website. Currently about 40% of CNY is claimable for the worker.

It's pretty unfortunate to see after last weeks discussion that we are now back at this point. Obviously it's everyone's chain, so I respect the decision raise the bar of the 400K refunder, but I would like to voice my opinion which I voiced elsewhere on Telegram earlier today:

I mean not BTS dying, but the worker system? I mean now the infrastructure worker is voted out again for example. This is actual infrastructure paid for by the blockchain. Servers. Machines :) (edit: apparently the infrastructure has enough BTS to be funded until end of december).

 This wobbly yes/no voting raising / lowering the refund bar will certainly shake out enough people to not trust the system and build stuff for BTS funded by the worker proposal system.

Anyhow I respect the change, I just think axing many projects in the middle of funding is a bad signal.

Another way to approach this is: —— ok we did some bad votings... Lets stay low for a while. Starting at X date (when those "bad votes" are done) we will raise the refunder bar to go into another direction.


For example the Decentralized Greece worker has Bitshares all over it on their website. The whole event is counting on the funding (I guess). The SteemFest worker (smaller) is also been announced and executing the milestones, but with today's cut will have to rethink that.

I think it's great to voice the concerns, and act accordingly, but to punish organisations and people who are already counting on the funds and doing their jobs is imho a faster way to have BTS collapse. "Bitshares, aren't they your co-host for this years event?" -- "no that went awry, in the middle of the funding process, they decided else, can't be trusted". <--- Is what IMHO the narrative will be.  I think the "review period" is the period where these remarks should be made and / or the refunder should be raised.

Please note above is my opinion. I respect yours. But I hope you will reconsider a little more mildness for the sake of BTS !

thanks, have a nice evening.

亲爱的华人社区。 我希望你能重新考虑你对REFUND400K的投票。 为了BTS的繁荣

====>

Crossposting from telegram group, my response about this refund worker change: (copy paste)

... this rigorous step to "cut off" many projects many in the middle of their payouts, will mean personal losses for individuals.

ofcourse it's the way how bitshares chain can work, but seeing involvement of so many people and organisations, and time spent, and then just decide to make this move, is a drastic kill switch, with a lot of casualties. There are no winners with this move, only unrest. IMHO workers should be unvoted if the work is not on par with the promises. Not by killing of projects in the middle of their funding. The signal is not good for people who would want to help BTS further through a worker proposal, it brings a lot of uncertainty.

When looking at SteemFest worker - was/is only a small worker, will survive without the BTS support - really meant to be a promotional worker for BTS, but the other bigger initiatives are more dependent on these bigger funded partnerships. Or for example the Wirex integration, instant plus for bitshares, especially thanks to our fast confirmation times, down the drain.

AFAI understood the BTS worker proposal system as always meant to be to develop the chain, promote the chain and support the chain.

Yes bts has a low satoshi price, but look what satoshi gets you compared to 2 years ago.
