Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
im having issues with the daemon running. any remote node i can run?
node.caliber.cash:19871
what issues are you having though?
my wallet has been running for a few days without issues
then yesterday daemon failed to start:
"please check your wallet daemon log for errors. You can also try to start calibred.exe manually"
remote node is working..
Might be as simple as antivirus deleted caliberd? Happened to me and many others too

Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
I was referring to the fact that the network was actually getting stuck - worst one was 2 hours without a block. There was a lot of hash at this time and the difficulty was still very low. The hash was spread between 2 pools and they were finding blocks faster than they could sync with eachother resulting in multipule alternate chains. Its took a while for the longest chain with the most work to win out. It was working as it was supposed to.
Thank you for the explanation. It makes sense what you said about multiple alternate chains...
Does Caliber have a plan to deal with 51% attacks? With the network hash rate as low as it is, it is susceptible (and appears to be under attack since nearly the start). Regardless of it being a couple of whales, or simply rented hash the network occasionally goes from 2M to 4M on a single pool. Since it's mostly on a pool, it doesn't seem like it's someone intentionally attacking in that way, but more of an opportunist trying to gain as many coins early on as possible.
Look at the hashrate graph on https://caliber.luckypool.io/
You can see that The hash rate was 1.88MH at 06:20+09:00 and jumped to 5.14MH by 07:53+09:00. It returned to 2.14MH at 08:55+09:00. From there it continues with these spikes (not nearly as great as that one). On cryptonightv8 1MH is a lot of computing power, so it's some combination of farms or rented hash that is likely causing these fluctuations. In turn that drives the difficulty up and when the hashing power suddenly drops off it leaves the rest of us to fight through.
Does Caliber have any plans on how to deal with the current volatility (or does this volatility not affect the coin in any negative way?)
Still wouldn't consider anything that has happened to be an attack. Most likely just early investors nicehashing legitimately.
However there is concern for attack after Caliber is listed on an exchange because would be 51% attackers could rent the power required. Will have to monitor the network hash.
One good option is to switch to a mining algorithm where there isn't enough hash to rent for 51%. However lots of coins are technically at risk right now by this method and don't have any issues.
The lower the nethash, the bigger the risk and lower the cost of attack.
I will dedicate some time to working on this. I'd rather have the piece of mind.
What else do you expect when the rewards drop from 8.7 in first 10k blocks to 2.1?
Not intending to speculate too much; however when looking at this from a simple supply and demand perspective there is less coins being introduced into the supply and the demand isn't going to change because of this. This is intended to have a positive effect on the price to avoid price bleeding out

Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
Just set up the Windows GUI wallet and it says "Monero" where it should say "Caliber" on the screen about whether to connect to network or not.

Brand new coin, Wallet and Monero fork. Technically saying "Monero" in place of "Caliber" is only technically wrong anyway lmao.
I'm sure it will get changed to Caliber unless they choose to keep it for some reason after everything is in motion.
But yo uare using the correct wallet and it will still work, I promise. I've set 2 up and recovered 1 already.
Thanks for letting us know
Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
I have questions about the same as the person above me.
Contrary to my username I am not wise about chain splitting and the like but I've been mining since block 300 something on LuckPool and the Pool hash fluctuates rapidly up and down but usually the pool hash rate shows as 2x higher than the whole network.
I'm not sure exactly what this is. If it is as simple as stated by developer then can someone please just explain to us like we're tards? lmao
I'm still mining, absolutely love the coin and am absolutely hoping and rooting for the best. I'm just too inexperienced of a miner to know what that truly is. I've mined 5-7 coins and never seen that happen. I just REALLY hope it doesn't actually have a negative impact on launch towards a free and decentralized start. I suppose that's where my concern lies is all.
Would just appreciate a slightly more detailed laymen's answer.
Created an account finally just to ask for clarity. I really hope there's nothing wrong as I was/am lucky enough to catch the first wave of mining and this concept is really solid as a crypto with a lot already working.

Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
Private Chat + Cryptocurrency, is a combination that certainly represents one of the great trends! More and more users on the mobile screen. Dev, I'll be waiting for a blockexplorer and do not forget TradeOgre.
explorer available from launch
https://explorer.caliber.cash/TradeOgre does seems like a good option
Re: [ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
Unfortunately it seems you didn't take into account how people would behave regarding the first minable blocks.
You have individuals (a few or many) attacking your coin by (what appears to be) using nicehash or the like.
You have the largest pool showing a pool hashrate of 3MH+, while the network registers as 1.5MH+. It's the same attack pattern that hit electroneum. Massive hash hit, with tons of solved blocks.. then it slows down to rougly 1.3MH to 1.4MH on the pool for a short while and another spike.
You have a small number of people scooping up all the coins so they can create a master node (or multiple master nodes?) or do a mass sell off when the coin reaches a profitable level.
Quite the unfortunate start that can cause the derailment of the coin as a desirable mining prospect.

It didn't seem to be an attack. The chain split off into 5 alternate chains at some point because of the very rapid increase of hash on the network. Its really not that much out the ordinary. Also Caliber has no Masternodes...
[ANN] [POW] [CAL] Caliber - Bulletproofs - Lightweight Private Payments
Caliber
Lightweight and Private Payment Platform
Introduction
Caliber is a new Monero fork, one of the most respectable cryptocurrency well-known for security, privacy, untraceability. Caliber implements Bulletproofs from network launch. This combined with 4 minute block times (2x that of Monero) results in a significantly smaller chain. Estimated to be 1/10th - 1/20th of the size of the Monero blockchain pre-bulletproofs.
This is crucial to help promote decentralization as most users on pre Bulletproof blockchains have moved from local node to remote nodes.
Economics
All other Cryptonote coin emission curves are flawed by design as the coin value bleeds due to extreme early inflation after initial launch even with increasing market-cap. This is catastrophic for the early investor and adoption as a whole. Caliber implements a custom supply curve slowing the rate of inflation significantly to not hurt any investors.
The reward for the first 10,000 blocks starts at 8.7 CAL. Afterwards this will reduce to 2.1 CAL per block.
Caliber Payroom
The first platform for the Caliber network developed by the core team is Payroom. A completely private chat app + Caliber Cryptocurrency wallet. This allows our users to be able to find other Caliber users to chat with and transfer Caliber coins to pay for Goods and services.
Caliber Payroom leverages its technology from two of the best open source projects: Signal and Monero. Taking the best from both projects and combining them creates the best private communication and payment system all in one. Send messages to a Caliber wallet address via Caliber Payroom and pay them directly.

Post below if you have made a Caliber pool and we will add this in here
Make sure you set your Caliber pool algo to CryptoNight V8 from v1 with no auto switching code inherited from an existing Monero pool.
In order to promote decentralization, the development team is not planning on running official pools. If required this will be organized.
