Is this project still alive? I must have some in my account

Sure, it's alive. Mainnet is stable, devs are working on new roadmap. And the new team of developers called Uno Labs joined the project recently.
All talks are now in the Discord chat.

What about usecase of your coins and your blockchain at all?

SEM has 3 main use cases: it is a fuel for running decentralised apps, it used in governance and BFT consensus, it is a store of value and mean of payment.

After the listing in Binance, BEAM price is already -60% down. That shitty exchange really kills altcoins

So what's next after unexpected chain split in testnet?
Will the Instanbul fork will be postponed for mainnet?

this is the BSV thread, Craig Wright thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5132383.msg52317087#msg52317087

Craig destroyed the reputation of BSV completely. In fact, the only news BSV has is updates about Craig's lie in the court.

Here you go. Look at this ugly face. Welcome one of the Semux core devs Pavel Ogorodnikov aka Savel

wtf wrong with you man. Savel is not core developer. He is not a developer at all.
He is one of 43 public pool operators: http://pool.7u.org/

I was using his pool in the past and I didn't have any issues with daily payouts.

Stop this dumb FUD, you look really incompetent and it seems you know nothing about this project.

Why the title says "No Pre Mine"? Isn't 20% of all block rewards goes to devs?

All this new trend with showing some random pics of the team members started only in 2017 by scam ICOs.

There is so few oldschool projects left. Semux and GRIN, not many more.

Are you kiddin'?

Who is standing behind this coin? If this is not an anonymous coin than you should announce developers of this project. This can give more trust to coin  Huh
At this time ,the developers wished to remain anonymous, this is their decision and we can not influence it

You are right. This is a 2 years old project with a stable mainnet and no crowdfunding or ico.
The dev team has much more trust already than thousands of shitcoins in Coinmarketcap. Take a look at Top-100, most of them are still ERC20 tokens without own blockchain.
Yes, it is, the project is 2 years old, it is developing, not everything goes smoothly in marketing ,but technically everything is good, they follow the road map , and you can always communicate with the developers in the official channel discord  Wink

If u wanna step aboard, become a team member etc, I could cut u in. Guys just wanted virtual anonymity. In real life, they aint any different than some money begging scum lounging around big train station. I know who they are and I met with them personally, we have held briefings in King Burger many times, and these slug dudes in rugged gowns with dirty asses became my friends. Anonymity is internet thing. Guys are as real as u are.

The funny thing that cryptocurrencies always were about financial freedom and virtual anonymity.
All this new trend with showing some random pics of the team members started only in 2017 by scam ICOs.

In another words you said: "This is unique, but idk why"  Grin
And? Java is old well know language. They didnt invented Java as like as this made Vitalik and Gavin Wood (Solidity for Ethereum).

Why java
They chose Java because it's a popular language with huge community and reliable networking libraries which is critical for 100 validators being communicating with each other all the time.
If you check the history of commits, you'll see that large part of codebase has been developed by community members. semuxgo started this project back in 2017 and on mainnet launch in 2018 many other Java developers and blockchain enthusiasts joined the project: cryptokat, orogvany, witoldsz, phash, honeycrypto, mdodong.

Why semux is unique
  • as mentioned above, semux is not a fork and its codebase written from scratch. So it's literally genuine software.
  • they developed own modification of BFT consensus [1] which makes Semux faster than competitors like Ethereum: 15 tps vs 166 tps semux
  • semux is censorship-resistant, 2/3 of validators is enough to keep the network live. Imagine if due to escalation of China-USA trade war [2] one of these countries will decide to isolate the internet completely. For coins like Bitcoin or Ethereum this will be a disaster, there will be no transactions in weeks or months due to high difficulty and low hashrate. But Semux will continue working with no issues (unless there is no more than 33% validators in China, but this is not the case - see the map [3]
  • high passive income, at the moment 36% yearly yield; one of the highest in crypto industry
  • according to semux roadmap [4], the project features not only Semux BFT consensus, but also Virtual Machine and On-Chain governance. So Semux took the strongest features of Bitcoin + Ethereum + Tezos and added more on top.
  • No ICO, no IEO, no crowdfunding - in 2019 when every project seeks for our money, this already sounds extraordinary
  • Semux is one of few projects driven by international community, so there is no force in the world which can shut it down like centralised projects baked by corporations (EOS, TRON, ETH, and almost all the other cryptos except Bitcoin).

[3] https://semux.info/delegates
[4] https://www.semux.org/#roadmap

Very nice.
And I have a single question, for now, Semux can handle approximately around 166 tps as you said, so will they improve our current transaction speed in the future?
and what will they do to improve it? (will we change its codebase based on Jave to another thing?) because if we do not find a way to increase its capacity to do the transaction, it is not going to be sustainable if we are only rooting for this to match up with other competitors.
such as waves, for example, they can go for a thousand using bulk-transfers and else.

I think they are going to use VM for a cheaper transactions with lower than 0.005 SEM fee.
Looks like up to some point just increasing of max gas per block can increase TPS:

Update as of 2019: The Catcher in the Rye still refuses to respond/back any of his claims, please ignore all accusations absent of proof as usual.

Hey you, scammer, you edited the original post again.

Beware of this scammer. Remember always to use escrow. Never accept paypal from this scammer.
He created fake accounts in Discord and tried to scam me for 0.55 BTC.

Decentralized Strategy Game "Medieval Age"

Credits

It is an honour for Credits to announce the initial work in the development of a new decentralized strategy game “Medieval Age” by third-party programmers on our blockchain platform.


Looks like fake project. Registered in April, they have no screenshots or demo yet. Only single page website and promises to issue tokens  Cheesy

How Libra technology and Semux are related?

That's classic wishful thinking. Admit, Semux is a dead coin.

Beware of vejonkaren. He is a known scammer who stayed behind ETCC scam project: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4762389.0

Facebook announced $LIBRA based on the same technology as Semux.

This should be advertised loudly. The hype around the facebook coin is coming.
With a very little effort we can bring thousands of new investors to Semux just by telling them that project with similar technical side exists for years already and its market capitalisation is just below $2mil USD
