Yes I understand but that shouldn't stop you from communicating. I'm wondering if we, the extended team, should have a way for better communication without having to fight over stupid, nonsensical matters, but it seems like even some of us in the extended team aren't included in your private club...
that private club nonsense again !
hang in there,
LOOK, I made a suggestion, you can forget it now. You have all the time in the world to argue with trolls and nontrolls on bct and time to tell each thread to update and bullshit but you don't have time to update someone about what the marketing team is doing? It's your call. Don't say someone insulted you because you have been vague and they have all the right to question what you and the marketing team are doing!!!
What's "testate"? Or you mean Testnet? That's not my department. And so far I haven't seen anyone plan for testnet to travel the world on Dash budget, have you?
Like there's always someone else is wrong on the Internet and you need to fix it?
man man moli
1. If the hashrate gets too high and there are enough big miners the chance of solomining a block takes a very long time. If my internet drops for too long I have to start again?
Mind you, I've got a lot of things done while you're trying to micromanage other people that you shouldn't.man man moli
really a shame ... what happened to you ?
you are just pi..ed of in general right, all BS all around you, i am fixing too much, i am not fixing enough, they are transparent or not,....
maybe you should step up and get some done and not just sit on the sideline bickering and bickering away !
Of course I read BCT, not every stupid post, but I skim through to see if Evan has posted anything there, or there's something worthwhile to read from some smart people there, and yes, I do see your dumb posts trying to fix the supposedly non-trolling trolls.LOL
on BCT ? WTF, you are on BCT
you are just watching right, and bickering after ?
hold on
fixed that for you
Heh, I might have an answer that solves all problems except a steady miner income, as pools aren't going to work.
oh moli
I'll sleep on it. All wallets are miners smells like POS.Heh, I might have an answer that solves all problems except a steady miner income, as pools aren't going to work.
I have said that this can be done purely with MNs but objections about reliability and the need for a physically separate network have been voiced, so:
Each block MNs choose a subset of miners. Only those assigned miners out of all connected miners validate transactions for that block. All mining logic is the same, just carried out by that subset. Plus a control group or three for extra security.
Furthermore, all connected wallets are miners. And no expensive hardware or the ability to pay running costs are needed because there's no hardware arms race any more. All connected wallets are amongst each block, The chosen subset does what miners usually do without the need for megawatts, bake that block and distribute to all. Next block, new subset, etc.
We would have
1. Near perfect decentralisation of mining.
2. No wasteful make-work.
3. Separation of MNs and mining.
4. No hashrate fluctuations, as there wouldn't be any hashrate, so currency emission would be perfectly predictable.
5. Peace on Earth.
Now, tell me why this wouldn't be awesome.
Tungfa started all this if you read his first post on this thread. And this is not a personal issue between us, it's an issue related to this thread and crouton is one of the members in the extended team. Sorry if this bothers you but I think we could take this to somewhere else, sure.Moli Tunga both of you. Take it to PM throw rocks at each other daggers whatever. Get it all out. Then buy each other a beer and return to measured discussion. Don't lower the tone to BCT level. Much respect to both. Better POW systems is more interesting
If it works and solves all the problems, you can call it what you like. :tongue:I'll sleep on it. All wallets are miners smells like POS.
I don't recall insulting you at all, in fact I have praised you in this thread.
Heh, I did indeed ask to be removed as an official tester as I couldn't commit the time to it any more, but Fernando's last words to me were: "if you confirm one more time I'll let go" - that was March 12th, and I was still listed as recently as a week or so ago I think, so maybe Mr Moncado had me fired for being a pain in his neck.
OH wow.... This is new to me... I don't check that site often but I didn't see you removed from it until just now...I don't recall insulting you at all, in fact I have praised you in this thread.
However, since you are now feeling insulted, you might also feel some empathy for the 2500 Masternode operators who have had to listen to various people imply, over and over, that they are all knuckledragging idiots who cannot be trusted to make informed decisions about their own future.

You are either being obtuse here or you have not read the DGBB thread at all. Numerous people objected to the idea that funds be approved first before being diverted from infrastructure providers because, to paraphrase them, "MN owners are morons who will vote no to everything for their short term gain and no spending will ever get approved."
Nobody knows what the hell Ed is up to, apart from posting word-salads and telling us we're a pack of gullible numpties.
Dammit, I really wanted that mohawk. :sad:Vegas was a joke
As much as that haircut for you was a joke
Lol
I agree with darkwing here, this smells like selective/round robin PoS, without the stake. So with this model implemented, on the small scale I can install the DASH client on my cryptoclueless friend's/family's/coworker's computer the next time I work on it, and collect the reward next time I use the given machine? And on the large scale, if I were a programmer the client would be included in a virus and I would colllect "mined" funds from hundreds or thousands of unknowing device owners? These funds are generated from virtually nothing and I don't see how they would hold value in this instance.Heh, I might have an answer that solves all problems except a steady miner income, as pools aren't going to work.

Each block MNs choose a subset of miners. Only those assigned miners out of all connected miners validate transactions for that block. All mining logic is the same, just carried out by that subset. Plus a control group or three for extra security.
Furthermore, all connected wallets with a unique IP address are miners. (To avoid people firing up ten thousand wallets each.) And no expensive hardware or the ability to pay running costs are needed because there's no hardware arms race any more. All connected wallets are chosen amongst each block, The chosen subset does what miners usually do, but without the need for megawatts, bake that block and distribute to all.

We would have
1. Near perfect decentralisation of mining.
2. Blockchain security on a par with IX and DS security. Even better in fact as hopefully there will be more many users/miners than Masternodes.
3. Inherently higher tx capacity as it should be faster to achieve consensus among a smaller set of nodes.
4. No wasteful make-work.
5. Separation of MNs and mining.
6. No hashrate fluctuations, as there wouldn't be any hashrate, so currency emission would be perfectly predictable.
7. Peace on Earth.
Now, tell me why this wouldn't be awesome.
edit: solved the miner income problem too - it could work the same way as MN payments, on a FIFO rolling basis. Again, Evan has already written the code for this...
8. Steady and predictable miner income.
I don't agree with the argument that wasting electricity gives value to cryptocurrencies. DASH has never been profitable to mine at the time and it's not unusual in that. Mining is a purely speculative activity that will always be out of the reach of most due not only to hardware and electricity costs, but the need for weird alien geekskills to get it all set up and running. As I said, it's exclusionary, in fact highly exclusionary.. Could your granny build a mining rig? I bet she could fire up a wallet and enter a 2FA code... (see below)
