Re: [XMS] Moonstone DAC (DPOS, DEX, Market-Pegged Assets, Main Net Live)

@Riverhead: nice to see you here posting. You actually have two posts here on this thread, which is exactly 50% of all your posts on Bitcointalk in last 3 years! Smiley. You don't seem to be very talkative (at least here on BCT), so such number of posts here show your genuine interest in this project Smiley

As a valued member of Steem and Bitshares community, I think you would be very welcome here too, but could you please explain those "james/morden/moonscape/nexus-dev/riverhead" multiaccount games resulting in pushing everyone else out of witness list? This is not a behaviour one would expect from a friendly and helpful community member...  Undecided

Thanks for the welcome Smiley.

There's nothing wrong with running multiple witnesses in DPOS and in fact it happens on all of them including Bitshares 1&2, Steem, Muse, and Moonstone-dac. Graphene is a completely transparent chain so it's trivial to follow proxy chains and created by records to figure out who is who. Naturally there are ways to create truly anonymous accounts but deception was never my intent. The dev said there would be 500 slots so I figured no harm no foul. Turns out there was only 11.

Here is a breakdown of the accounts:

James/Riverhead - Mine.

Morden - My curator on Steem that wanted to try his hand at being a witness since he has no chance of getting in on Steem, Muse, or Bitshares. New project new opportunities for new people Smiley.

Moonscape - Account created for Roadscape - a frontend dev for Steemit and creator of steemd.com. I haven't spoken with him yet so he has not been voted on. I could have left it as a non witness account but honestly I wasn't expecting this level of scrutiny this early on lol.

nexus-dev - Created for Nikolai (toast) who has joined our Slack and was a core dev for Bitshares and currently runs Nexus Development which is the core dev team on Makerdao - an Ethereum based stable coin project.

Moonstone-dac is a cool project with a lot of potential addressing one of the primary complaints of Bitshares 2.0: inflation. Inviting some experienced people in the space can only help this project reach the potential we're all hoping for. Bonus if he gets the EVM ported Smiley.

Hi Dev,

Is this ok for my node to be a witness?

unlocked >>> get_witness jthor
get_witness jthor
{
  "id": "1.6.45",
  "witness_account": "1.2.67",
  "last_aslot": 0,
  "signing_key": "xxxxxxxx",
  "vote_id": "1:56",
  "total_votes": 0,
  "url": "xxxxxxxx",

Thank You.

Make sure you add the ID and private signing keys to your config.ini. Otherwise looks swell.

I would like to nominate Daniel Larimer for his innovations including DACs and DPOS.

While not a Jr. member I have been lurking for over a year and a half (check my registration date). Post count isn't everything Smiley.

Re: BitShares Music + PeerTracks (Pre-sale launch)

I think I get it in a couple of sentences for the lay person.

Buy/Sell/Trade shares in your favorite bands, artists, groups with the tokens that are created by those bands, artists, and groups through bitshares music DAC.
Buy music through peertracks & possibly cash in some tokens if the band declares 1 token is worth 1 download or something.



I believe, the plan is the token holders to get paid whenever somebody buys a song. In that sense you get paid more when the band sells more songs, as opposed to the price to be determined by the bands themselves.

That's exactly it. When you own coins for an artist, say OneDirectionCoin for example, you get a small percentage of all their sales. If you thought they were the sh*t before everyone else did and bought their coins cheap you'd be doing very very well right now. This is why early coin holders become instant grassroots marketing for the band.
