If whoever is recording would like to shoot these over to me I'd be happy to edit them, I feel a bit left out as a minority time zoner

It might sound a bit odd, but let's be sure to record these hangouts and post the files somewhere for easy reference. Also, a usb headset will drastically improve your sound quality. ;)

tldr: I'm happy to fit my project into whatever you're working on. Collaboration is the word of the age right?

Wow fuzznuts, It really sounds like you're on the ball. I like the idea of "beyond Bitcoin but i'm also aware that that is the name Invictus chose for their conference. This would be ideal except that I'm beginning to think that maybe instead of being Bitshares news oriented it might be more useful to the community to focus on explaining new blockchain innovations though interviews. It doesn't make sense to limit the reach of the show to Bitshares when there is so much going on that is worth including. Broader content means a broader listenership too.

With the complimentary work you're doing it does make sense to partner though and given you have chosen Beyond Bitcoin for your project then it makes sense for me to adopt the branding too. I was wondering what to do about building a website which, given my club footed coding ability, is somewhat challenging.

What do you think of starting with an episode on Proof of Stake? The evolution of Invictus' security model from mining based to DPOS is a valuable process to examine I think and showcases the benefits and drawbacks of various approaches. This will also give listeners a knowledge base for us to build on.

Mike Maloney's anti inflation stance and enthusiasm for a superior but as yet unknown economic system bodes well. His intuition of a coming age of enlightenment gels with the intellectualism of the distributed-crypto space. The application of concepts developed in computer science to other fields, especially economics and social organisation, is the grand conceptual step forward of our age (I reckon).

Personally, I'm thinking about DPOS, BitsharesDNS, and MaidSafe, right now. Each is, in it's own way, a game changing idea.

While I'm listing, what do you guys think of Wolframs "A New Kind of Science" and these new distributed networks looked at through the lens of complex systems theory in general?

Same question, but the ideas of Nassim Taleb's Antifragile?

Finally onto the "color of the barn" what do you think the podcast should me called?

I like the idea of the mumble discussion for debate and recorded google hangouts are very useful, think of the LTBCoin announcement. Airdrops seem like a great discussion to start with. I'll school myself up on the various sides of the argument and include a section on that. I cant create and publish any content due to my current location so it won't be till after Easter.

Sounds like there is some productive discourse in that thread. I'll draw out the conclusions and report on them ;-)

Hello Bitshares forum. You don't know me because I never post but I read you guys every day.

Within two weeks I hope to release the first episode of a podcast detailing the developments which are taking place in the bitshares ecosystem. I'm no computer scientist but I've been avidly following Invictus since the debut of Protoshares, I also posses a neutrally accented baritone. Hopefully that's sufficient to qualify me for the role.

A bi-weekly podcast allows people to make bitshares part of their weekly routine so this will be the ultimate goal. Initially however one episode a week seems like a more manageable workload.

Let's hash out the most important questions on the minds of the community and come up with detailed, concise, easily understood answers. I myself am very much a layman so my ability to understand and re communicate will inevitably be the litmus test here.

Tell me what you think guys. If you're interested in getting involved please speak up and let's start producing some media!

The idea is you need to mine to maintain your ID or it will vanish. The purchased founder IDs were a one-off. Due to the need for ubiquitous compatibility, I would imagine that a CPU oriented miner will be utilised. Presumably the protoshares miner was a release candidate. The recent advances in proof of stake made by by the team mean that mining based 51% will be difficult/impossible should they choose to design the chain that way. In reality though, without the profit motive of a finance or equity oriented chain it is hard to imagine someone bothering. However should a 51% attack occur, it would no be difficult for the developers to just fork back to the pre-attack chain. It's not like there is any money to double spend and all of the data is encrypted in public view.
The private keys of wallets will be kept in the chain and used to conduct transfers through the native cryptocurrency wallet software - the "coins" themselves are not located in the Keyhotee chain - just the encrypted wallets.

Keyhotee is an address book and dossier as well as a kind of multipurpose data safe. It is designed to allow the user to pass the stored data to applications securely . . .

. . . as I understand it.

BitShares AGS / Checking AGS Balance

Could someone please outline the steps required to check your AGS balance? I have founder ID shares and made a donation but cannot get a balance to return from either.

Seemed like a nice guy. What can I say?
