**
Foundation.biblepay.org Pool **
Btw, I wanted to mention this pool simply uses vardiff on port 3001. So far I don't see any downsides to this approach.
This pool shoots for a 2 minute solution time regardless of how big your rig is.
So another words, if we give you a 2,3,4,5,6,7 difficulty and you still solve it fast, we give you an 8,9,10.
You *are* rewarded for the difficulty level you solve - so for example if you solve a 5 diff you receive 5 shares more in the pool.
This technically eliminates a lot of other junk related to setup also.
It also handles handles multiple connections under the same address, etc.
Another question is PODC why do I need to keep my wallet open
Our GSC (generic smart contract) currently requires a daily stake, to prove that you own a certain amount of coins relative to your BOINC RAC.
Each daily contract looks for this stake to be present, otherwise we don't include that researcher in that days rewards.
So you could theoretically open the wallet once per day for a minute and manually type 'sendgscc wcg' and then close it, or, you can leave it run and have the daily transaction transmit once per day automatically.
** The Executive Summary of Jesus Christ **
https://san.biblepay.org/Theology/The%20Executive%20Summary%20of%20Jesus%20Christ.pdfI'm making this to introduce Jesus to Corporation employees. The idea is to send this to a CTO for example and have him/her forward this to employees.
Please provide any feedback if you feel I left something out, or if something needs improved.
Also, feel free to use it as you wish to spread the gospel.
** BBPRIG (XMRIG) 5.10.0 - LEISURE UPGRADE **
- Merge in XMRig changes from Jan 2020 through March 2020 (MIP)

https://wiki.biblepay.org/Upgrade_to_RandomXPlease also let us know if this resolves the machine language crashes for some people.
** Sanctuary and Chainlocks Bulletin for block 187,000 **
Now that RandomX is stable and our difficulty has surpassed 1.0, we are planning to enable Chain Locks. This is an exciting moment for Biblepay.
Realize that we are one of the few coins that exist that have chainlocks in Production (Other than Dash, who created it).
And, I believe we are the first Bitcoin based coin to have RandomX.
In preparation for this, anyone who has a sanctuary, could you please ensure it is up and running? As, once we enable Chain Locks, we move into strict mode meaning the Sanctuaries will be POSE banned and not paid if they do not respond to quorum requests. Obviously we want to have a smooth cutover.
Lets shoot for block 187,000.
Update:
We have enabled Spork 17 (Deterministic sanctuary quorums) at block 187,000.
** Short term workload updates for foundation.biblepay.org **
So we still need some testers to test the 2FA, I see we have a little bit of testing but I think everyone forgot to finish.
My short term plans are this:
- To gain more XMR-BBP traffic, I plan on 'mutating' the gospel feature (the one that allows you to solve a chapter in foundation.bbp), into something slightly different. I'll make it where you have to be randomx mining first, and the applicable participants have not solved one quiz in the last 24 hours. We can make it where you can click your own link to participate. This will theoretically allow us to advertise the eqivalent of a randomx faucet (for solving the gospel quiz). So basically, new RX miners will have the impetus to join and start mining first then click on the link to get the quiz then the reward. We will also be able to pour in more investment into it since it will be focused.
- I'm working on implementing deposits and withdrawals in the 2fa secured account next. This will theoretically pave the way for the next cool feature, such as fractional sancs.
UPDATE: Now we are ready for testers to test 2FA, Deposits and Withdrawals.
** Reward of 13K for new Monero or XMR - RandomX Miners **
https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=503.new#newThe reward is being increased to 13,000 bbp for new RandomX Miners!
** POOL CHANGE BULLETIN **
All,
Since the rx pool at rx.biblepay.org went down yesterday, I've moved rx.biblepay.org DNS record to foundation.biblepay.org's pool, so we can stress test it.
Although the traffic is being sent from rx.biblepay.org:3001, I prefer that users change their configs.
Please see the getting started guide here:
https://foundation.biblepay.org/GettingStartedThis pool uses vardiff on port 3001.
Update:
Anyone who was mining on rx.biblepay.org that has an XMR balance, you can still access the balance from any of our pools from the "XMR inquiry tab" by pasting your XMR address there. You can also access the balance in foundation.biblepay.org in the "XMR Inquiry" page.
So of course no XMR is lost during the switchover.
** CHAINLOCKS ARE ENABLED **
Please keep an eye on your sanc's to ensure they are not POSE banned.
Great job to everyone who helped bring us to this point!
We are one of the few with: CHAINLOCKS in Production.
We are the only coin with Monero-RandomX in the Bitcoin branch.
** 2FA, Deposits and Withdrawals **
This new feature is ready to test. Please test deposits and withdrawals on foundation.biblepay.org.
Note that you may deposit if logged in (whether you have 2FA or not), but you can only withdraw funds if you have 2FA enabled and you are authenticated.
Feel free to try to hack it or break it.
