Howdi all,
Trying to build the wallet on Ubuntu 18.04 but I'm stuck on this error:

Code:
Makefile:1434: recipe for target 'build/txdb-leveldb.o' failed
make: *** [build/txdb-leveldb.o] Error 1

I believe I have all required dependencies, and was previously successful on 16.04. Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

What compiler do you use?


g++, gcc

The version, please.

gcc version 7.3.0 (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3)

LMAO noobs in this thread haha.....I made 300x with eth and nav NOOB and you are trusting a dev who cant show his face or tell his name.... Douche get a life.

300% eh? Well congrats, so did I. In fact, I have a diverse asset portfolio of which VTR is a very small percentage because it's a risky moonshot project. If it succeeds, it could pay far more than 300X. But whatever. Keep on whining and badgering us about your missed opportunities. And I'll take the noob label over your troll any day.

And you will sell it to whom? To yourself? Lmao

The volume is 3.78 btc today and total cap of 465 btc lol, that was what i used to trade with in 2015.

Being optimistic is one thing and being delusional is other.

I just come back to this thread once in six months because i know some older members here  And once upon a time i did hold this coin.le
With no twitter and NO NAME developer you guys think this is going anywhere. NO!!! This is not 2013, Evolve or be left out!!!


"Don’t Cling To A Mistake Just Because You Spent A Lot Of Time Making It "


3.78 BTC = 87,907 VTR. I don't know what your issue is, but I'd have no problem selling a few thou each day on Bittrex, the #2 exchange in the world. I wouldn't try to sell my entire stash at once because, well, that would be dumb. Too bad you dumped yours at such a ridiculously low price, because you could have made 100X.

Should vtorrent wish to monetize/legitimise their work and business model, a similar legal agreement with the industry will have to be made. 

It's a must do, a legal agreement will boost the value of vTorrent, and who doesn't want that ?!
I hope the team makes a priority out of this.

Yes. The .8x "classic" client will become community-supported and carry the pirate stuff, while .9x will be the DMCA-approved content sharing client.

Wrong.
Otherwise Bittorrent itself would've been legally challenged.

Bittorrent Inc has been a company for years, never been shutdown or had any legal problems. It's based just a few miles from Hollywood. 


Sourced from Wikipedia:
In 2004, Bram Cohen, with his brother Ross Cohen and business partner Ashwin Navin, formed BitTorrent Inc. By mid-2005, BitTorrent, Inc. was funded by venture capitalist David Chao from Doll Capital Management. In late 2005 Cohen and Navin made a deal with the MPAA and seven large studios in America to remove links to illegal content on the official BitTorrent website. The agreement means the site complies with procedures outlined in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Should vtorrent wish to monetize/legitimise their work and business model, a similar legal agreement with the industry will have to be made.

To add to the theories...


I believe the tech is ready but there are legal hurdles to this project that are being confronted. And this could take months or years, or may prove insurmountable. Shadowcash, which this wallet's code is based on, rebranded and refocused their target market for this reason.

Bittorrent = legal
Bitcoin = legal
ZCash = legal

I'm struggling with the legal hurdles you are trying to say need to be confronted.

There is even some VHS case in America that makes Bittorrent legal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Corp._of_America_v._Universal_City_Studios,_Inc.

IF the devs wish to monetise this project, ala Particl, they'll need to thoroughly investigate and prepare for the legal consequences of users sharing copyright material. The entertainment industrial complex has way more money and lawyers.

Have any of you seen this? http://torrentchain.io/

What do you all think?

Let's see ...
No community, whitepaper, or github. Only a flashy website, vague promises, and anon devs. Wants 10M$. Yeah right.

Due to the cost and slow speed of BTC confirmations, Bittrex is running a poll on Twitter asking whether they should enable ETH trading pairs on all coins:

This is a no-brainer.

So if I start seeding I will be rewarded with vTorrent ? How much ? per gb ? mb ?
I would like to try it out and see what it is like. It is quite exciting.

Since no one else answered you ...
Keep VTR in your unlocked wallet and your computer online and you will solve approx. 1 block for every 2000 coins, everyday. Each block solved is ~1.13 VTR worth $.32 USD today. Not bad for just hodling.

I wasn't always so negative, in fact quite the opposite, I was one of the top supporters and one of the top coin holders, I even convinced quite a lot of people in the cryptocopia slack to invest (for that I feel a little guilty). That's why i've turned against this project, it's all down to the way the devs promise features and fail to deliver and stay silent for months and months on end.

I sold two thirds of my coins, i'm just gonna hold 150k on the outside hope, that one day in the future the devs may actuall pull it off, as i'm not stupid and can clearly see the massive potential. It really is a gamble, i've taken OK profit from this and just gonna free ride the rest, it's either gonna be back to 600 sat or 600k sat.

If any of this yarn is even remotely true, why would you sabotage your investment by constantly trolling this thread? It makes absolutely no sense from an investment POV. Either you're a lying troll, an attention seeker, or bi-polar. Your only valid complaint -- the non-comminicative dev team -- is tenuous because they do post when there is important news or updates. It's still in deep development, for Christ's sake! They choose to focus on coding rather than marketing, because, hell, it's never been done before and may not work at all. Why on earth would you hype a product and drive up the token price when it is, as you call it, vapourware? That would be incredibly misleading and scammy. I'm certain when there's a working product released, the team will sing its praise. Until then, sit back, STFU, and let serious discussion prevail. Then maybe you might make some money from this after all.

BUMP

Dig deep into the image above and you'll see that the devs do have a working torrent implementation. Just no idea why they can't or won't share a 5 second video clip of it to keep everyone happy  Smiley

Once again, it is my belief that anonymity is a priority here, both for the dev team and users. That's why they are low key and stingy with info  We've seen this with so many other torrent, streaming, and file sharing projects that have been attacked and harassed by the entertainment-industrial-complex. It's a BIG concern that this project could be shut down before it even releases a working product.

So to the hodlers here who claim to actually own VTR, stop harassing the dev team, pimping your other shit, or threatening forks. If you have competing code, show it. Otherwise, stop staining this thread with vitriol. It's only hurting your investment.

Dear all,

This project is indeed still being actively developed.

Due to nature of BitTorrent sharing, we have been experimenting with the possibility of migrating ZEC's zero-knowledge to VTR core to improve users anonymity and try to do without needing of reseting the current chain.

vTorrent 0.9.1z will be the first version to incorporate the zero-knowledge protocol and if resetting the chain is needed, there could possibly be a fork of vTorrent-Classic running by community keeping the 0.8.x chain.

There are some other plan along with this new chain, which is still being in discussion in our team.

Regards,
vTorrent

Awesome news, dev! Consider making the new token ERC20 compatible and you'd have a grand slam on your hands.

@Dev

Just so you are aware, when JoyStream goes open source, we'll be forking it and merging it with vTorrent coin holders ....

This is the proper way to show your displeasure with a project, and in the spirit of FOSS. Competition is a good motivator. I will follow it with interest.

+1

Maybe he is just creating smaller pumps, dumping and reloading again. He owes us an explanation why he still haven't released a new wallet. He rarely speaks so it's shady that he gave us an exact time of the release and haven't delivered yet.

You must be joking. The volume is so low on this coin, your scheme wouldn't be worth the effort. Much more easy and profitable with any of the top coins on Polo. Since this is not an ICO, the dev team owes you nothing. However, you will get your reward when the new wallet is released, that is if you're actually invested. I would think anyone who has skin in the game wouldn't be here constantly pissing all over this thread.

The problem and the tech which is going to be tackled with vTorrent is huge and complex. I think we can assume that the Dev-Team is very small. And I think we can assume that it`s more like a side-project rather than a full-time job. Forking makes absolutely no sense. I highly doubt that anybody of us is technically capable and/or willing to put a substantial part of our free-time into the project. We really need to be more patient. Just treat your purchase into VTR as an investment. There is no overnight route to richness.

I trust that the team is continuously working on improvements and an alpha version with Bittorrent functionality will be realised soon. Beside virtual money transfer that would be the first B2C application in the blockchain ecosystem. That will be huge.

Let`s not freak out about Dev being unresponsive or not sharing enough info. I am sure that will change once they feel that they have a great product to market. Let`s keep our fingers crossed that the next release will be soon. The current blockchain environment would be really beneficial and investments are likely to flow into the project.

Well stated. Unfortunately we have some impatient children in this forum who think that bullying the dev team will somehow motivate them to be more communicative, perhaps hyping the price to their greedy expectations. They need to grow up and wait for a working wallet or move on. This software has the potential to save file sharing as we know it. I hodl because I want to USE the product, not speculate on the price. There are plenty of shitcoins for that purpose.
