Hi everyone, just pushed another set of code commits, and an update. Sorry for the delay. The developer who was previously assigned to this task had not made any progress for almost a month, so I took it out of his hands a week ago. No excuses, but that is how it is when dealing with people. :/ Knowing how late this is, I am finishing the code myself. This set of commits was to clean up everything that the previous dev did, and make it backwards compatible. This is essential for combining with other Lamassu plugins, like their most popular BTC wallet bitgo. Now that the admin, server, and plugins are up to beta quality, it is only the machine that is left. This part is mostly just editing html pages. It is more tedious than challenging. I expect to have it done by EOW, and will do a demo video soon after. Assuming it goes well testing on our machine here, I'll package up the install scripts and others can begin testing. Sorry again for the delays! We're also very excited to finish this project, as we have Lamassu machines waiting to be flashed with Dash and sent into the wild.
Once again, thanks for the update, and for personally taking over the project! You are a great ally for us. https://twitter.com/taoofsatoshi/status/712358754457624577
isysd Thanks for update! Exmo Exchange (www.exmo.com) already is thinking about buying "the very first DASH Lamassu Bitcoinomat for their office" Also they may be helpful as they are very tech savvy guys (first and only Dash exchange who implemented InstantX) - so there maybe a some cooperation in this direction for both of you...
Absolutely, yes. I saw your visit, and a bit about exmo. Haven't had time to look at their API, but we try to maintain clients for all trustworthy exchanges. Will put Exmo on the list.
isysd Thanks for updating and taking the torch. You mentioned you will be accepting instantx and that it isn't different than a standard transaction. There are differences. And more changes are getting added to help notify IX on a future dash releases. udjinM6 and moocowmoo are discussing the IX notifications and may be able to help. The GUI wallet says IX received in the details when it received an IX transaction. The dashd wallet will show both confirmations and bcconfirmations(block confirmations). The command dashd listtransactions will show each on the transaction details per below. A standard transaction show 0 confirmations. "confirmations" : 0, "bcconfirmations" : 0, An InstantX transaction will give 5 confirmations within a few seconds. "confirmations" : 5, "bcconfirmations" : 0, So with an instantX you would accept that transaction right away(no waiting). The standard transaction you would want to wait until the confirmation = 5 or what the owner wants. With the InstantX Soda Machine we actually rejected the non-IX transactions because we didn't want to queue customers. I think you already have a way to queue customers and text when available so you may not need to reject non-IX transactions. Current mobile wallets now support IX - but it is an option that will cost about 6 cents.
Thanks for the details! It looks easy enough if you're using dashd, which was my assumption when I initially wrote about InstantX. The previous dev decided to do MVP using only Poloniex. It works well enough for testing, and I'll do a dashd version soon, which will definitely support InstantX. I honestly don't think most people will want to run a node, though. Will have much better solutions in the months ahead.
A bit disappointed at how things were sat on for a whole month but good on isysd stepping to the plate. Hope we have something concrete to see soon. Is the contract to Lamassu denominated in USD or Dash? What happens to the spare funds given the recent increase of price? I really hope this can be done using InstantX as well. Exmo I believe supports this as well.
Hi everyone, good news! The beta versions of all components are complete, including dashd support. I believe, but have not been able to confirm in testing, that this should also include InstantX. As usual, you can see the latest status here: https://github.com/deginner/DashLamassuProposal/wiki/Project At this point, there are a few known bugs, but nothing that should block operation. This software is ready to be used by developers, but not yet the general public. We're currently installing it on a machine for integration testing. If there are technically-savvy Lamassu operators interested in helping us test, please let me know. Particularly if you have a two-way machine, as I only have a one-way to test on and the simulator doesn't work for it either!
Hi everyone, thank you for your patience! This week is a milestone in this project. After many complications, we're happy to announce two separate options for Dash Lamassu integration. One is fully supported by the new CTM vendor TigoCTM. The other option is a backwards compatible fork syncronized with Lamassu's (currently alpha) ETH integration, and requires similar technical capabilities to deploy as our earlier release. Details: https://github.com/GitGuild/gitguild_website/wiki/Dash-Update-Q3-2016
as I understand it (and honestly I do not really) we passed the eth delay - there is a dash version available now which still work with eth when lamassu finally catches up with that @isysd is that correct and the short answer ?
Exactly as @tungfa says. We have incorporated all of the changes from Lamassu's latest alpha branch (which includes ETH) into our Dash build. There still some minor cleanup to do before publishing, but it will be this week.
Im serious, any news on the Lamassu ATM? I know their getting paid funds and the options to buy Dash are limited. Where I normally get my btc to exchange to Dash has to keep changing banks in Australia. Those bank f%ckers keep closing their accounts still after they learn the company iis trading in btc. I just want to buy Dash direct, hence where the f%ck is the Lamassu ATM's?
as far as i know (and i do not know much) there will be a Dash ATM present at the LaBitConf in argentina - i have not gotten that confirmed yet if the machine is actually there or not but that is all i know
Daniel wrote me yesterday that he did not managed to bring his machine to Argentina due to the extremely high cost (transport and taxes/customs) - it would be 2000 USD in one direction.
Lets just forget about Lamassu. Its a distraction and has caused a lot of divsion. You win some and lose some. Lets move on.
No fricken way, I want a Dash integrated Lamassu in Sydney Australia! I don't want to continue making btc & fiat the medium of exchange.
So if not ATM shipment occured will there be refund of the funds for this cost that was approved in proposal?
Woah, someone is paying attention ... nice catch ! ..."Round trip packing and shipping of the Dash ATM ($700)" (https://www.dash.org/forum/threads/proposal-conference-travel-sept.10303/)
