The closer you group the sparkles, the cooler it looks:



Organized centralization looks cool, random decentralization is boring.

LOL - That particular group of sparkles is decentralizing at about 1500 km/sec.   :)

FYI, real mining for Sparkle is live now on the test network.  Test blocks will be honored!
Awesome! Congrats.

Thanks for giving the PTS back, nobody put a gun to your head for you to do that.  You could have just as easily dumped them on the open market, bought The Bitmobile and went on a marketing tour to promote your latest BitSparkle, and it all would have been perfectly legal.


Everyone won with the pts return. Some were saved millions.

The problem is withdrawing them back to your PTS wallet, right now I think it's about a block a day!

Where is the new PTS being discussed?

Using the Nov 5th snapshot for something new like Sparkles has the following bad consequences:

Everybody who sold PTS to somebody else after the 5th gets your new shares
even though they sold their rights to them, and
everybody who bought PTS in good faith for rights to those shares is cheated.

PTS has no trading value if developers don't honor the current owners at the time a new genesis block is defined.

This is particularly bad right now, since we recently returned PTS to their donors.
If you use Nov 5th, Invictus gets Sparkle shares instead of all those loyal supporters you are seeking.

Think of the howls of protest when that gets out!

Those that still hold  PTS should be rewarded not those that sold/dumped

Actually, you deserve the sparkles more than we do, so fair is fair

You guys invented Sparkle after all

Well it will help us significantly from an accounting perspective if we don't have all of those Sparks on our books.  Might start a fire you know.

People have asked me to announce a snapshot date for PTS other than November 5th.    I cannot find a snapshot generator that use to be hosted at genesis.bitshares.org so can someone point me to the new PTS forum so that I can ask them to produce the snapshot for me?

I will do the snapshot on December 14th, the anniversary of the American Revolution:

Quote
The first military encounter of the American Revolution occurred, when on the report of news carried by Paul Revere that the British intended to station a garrison at Portsmouth, New Hampshire; Major John Sullivan led a band of militia to Fort William and Mary, broke into its arsenal, and carried off arms and ammunition, 1774

If I cannot get a snapshot produced by the PTS community then I will use Nov 5th PTS snapshot.
I will generate the BTS snapshot on December 14th.
AGS is what it is.

Help spread the word!

81655 is the present block count. It is MANY hours between blocks because very few people seem to be mining PTS at present.

I'm at 81660 now, not sure if that is current though.

I read somewhere that they setup a new forum to discuss an upgrade to PTS
