Human mining games = games where people do circular tasks, games, to make money.

Taskwork coins = coins where people do work of some sort, as part of a broader economy, to make money.

~

Taskwork coins can create millions of jobs.

A good direction for a coin like Huc or Chi is to create modular programs that can be added on to a basic taskwork core and allow anybody to create their own taskwork coin for all sorts of work.

~

It is one of the most lucrative paths for a coin, and it is a wide open niche that nobody has properly exploited yet.

The obvious progression from 'human mining games' to 'human mining taskwork' is probably the next big step in the economy, but the value is centered right now in coins that make smart contracts or do other trivial things which should be a very minor mechanical part of any economy.

Huc and Xaya have helped start the technology of human mining task work, which will be the basis for a real ai economy, as opposed to the 'software based' ai tools that Google and other corps promote, but which do not actually focus on real ai.

~

You have made various games for Xaya, why not make one program that steps up from 'game' to simple taskwork with parameters that would fit the needs of most simple taskwork projects?

So if somebody wants to have online people do x job they can say 'Xaya or whatever coin facilitates that, and can be set up quickly'

It is obvious in which direction the coin economy is heading. It will be a dangerous place soon, and the power should not be concentrated in transnational corps and melting pot interests.

~

As long as a taskwork coin's basic framework is open source and comprehensible to enough people, it is good as long as it is not a monopoly.



sounds great and something to think about for the future

Decentraland has been really blowing up lately. Reminded me of the old Huntercoin. Is the game even still active?

Not currently in active development - was no funds or incentive to keep developing (no premine etc, was created at cost for testing purposes originally), split in community of what to do, and it wasn't designed with longevity in mind. - together with a developer passing away a week after launch.

It was a precursor for Chronokings > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=262599.80

Chronokings is pretty much Taurion (except in space) > https://twitter.com/XAYA_tech/status/1379751806276923396

A mixture between EVE online, C&C and CIV (and huntercoin) - all fully decentralized

-

There is some discussion atm about some sort of Huntercoin revival but nothing concrete atm

Yep. CHI is available Tuesday, April 6th as WCHI, an ERC20 token that you can trade on Uniswap.

Read more here:

https://xaya.medium.com/xaya-ethereum-and-wrapped-chi-fdb6b64285eb

Well, nice.

I have few questions, if you don't mind.

1. Regarding "Autonomous Worlds Ltd (EU registered Ltd), the company that maintains and develops the open source Xaya platform, will provide a swap for verified users."
Why only verified users? What prevents you from doing the CHI->WCHI swap automatically for everyone? Like if someone is sending CHI coins to a designated address, you automatically send WCHI to his ETH address? This is the way swaps are typically done - no need for user verification (or KYC) whatsoever!

2. I understand you will burn users CHI and issue WCHI from a reserve (“holding addresses”). That part is clear. However I am not sure how are you going to swap the WCHI to CHI when needed? CHI cannot be generated on demand, so... what? Will the WCHI<->CHI swap be just one directional, with no way to get CHI back?

3. What is the use for WCHI besides trading? CHI is a main token of the Xaya blockchain, which also holds the whole gameplay. So CHI can be used on that blockchain somehow. With WCHI it is not clear what could be done with it. What part of Xaya technology be used on Ethereum, and how?



Hey, thanks for the questions:

1. There is no automated trustless way to do this yet. That's the holy grail in crypto atm. The only solutions atm are trusted or centralized methods (or validator type complex setups, not decentralized)
It's easy to set it up automated in a centralized way, however for legal reasons they need to be verified.

2. no there is no burning. user sends chi to a public address when we ask them too (address is in a 3 of 5 multisig wallet), then we release WCHI to their eth address they provided (with a 3 of 5 multisig wallet). and same vice versa.

3. WCHI will then be available on in the ethereum ecosystem for trading on DEX (like uniswap) and also to be used in Xaya Games which run on Ethereum
Xaya platform is 2 parts - the Xaya Core blockchain and the game GSPs. These game GSPs can be designed to run on ethereum without much effort. The core Xaya chain is very simplistic and does everything we need, will always be there and that is where new coins are minted.

hope that helps

How come gaming platforms keep on popping up in every crypto nook and cranny. Yet nobody is checking up or regulating them? It is high time these things are put under checks because of quality control

not sure about popping up, but we've been in the space since we released the first "blockchain game" (2013) and also Xaya (then Chimaera)was the first "gaming platform" you could say as well.

There is some regulation with regards to selling assets, issuing coins,  and all things like that.

A "different" thing about most xaya games are that the assets are generally acquired in a decentralised world through work (gameplay/time), just like bitcoin.

Hi fine folks at Xaya,

With 2021 potentially being an amazing year for crypto I want to promote your project wherever relevant. I've been dropping your name in comments on Reddit and Youtube, but I realize it's been a while since I've properly updated myself on the status of the project.

Are you still working actively on Xaya and do you perhaps have any noteworthy plans or a roadmap for this year you could share? If would be great to see the project get some momentum. You most certainly deserve to be higher on the ranking with a higher market cap.

Thanks in advance!

Hey and great, that would be most welcome byt he community.

we'll have a public roadmap (in digestible form) available very soon - it's being worked on as i write this.

All the latest developments have done well for the CHI/XAYA price. Because of the pricesurge the hashrate has gone up 4-5 times!

Keep up the good work and i hope the treasuehunt goes well Smiley

Yeah parasites are creaming off the higher-than-usual prices, by making more off their rigs. Which proves POW is dead as a consensus mechanics. Its worthless as validation mechanism. It just favors parasites with mining power and a power socket to plug their rigs in which enables these guys have a passive income while doing nothing and contributing not to the worldwide economy.

I think you'll find lots of people who disagree.

have a look at bitcoin (and most of the top 10 cryptos by market cap)

REUBO BUILDINGS

Check out these Reubo buildings for Taurion:




Taurion is a fully decentralised blockchain MMO game with true ownership. #Blockchain is more than just a buzzword or hashtag for us.





This looks exactly like 2002 Space Rangers game. u borrowed sentries and defense towers design from RPG game while also violating their ownership rights, now belonging to me as outlined in a license agreement between Pixar and the company which developed the original game. Earth will soon be shuttered by aftereffects of Pixar's menacing response to dishonourable actions of yours.

send a link because we modelled these from scratch Smiley

all RTS are similar since Dune 2... from 30 years ago.

What size is the blockchain up to now?

about 1GB atm

we also have ready for testing Electrum-CHI if anyone wants to try it out.

not to be confused with Electron

https://github.com/xaya/electrum-chi

This allows for semi decentralised wallet - no need to download the chain, keep your keys, and it also works with Taurion and SME. (so eventually players will not need to worry about syncing if they don't care about running a full node).

IMPORTANT UPGRADE: XAYA ELECTRON V1.2.3

Xaya Electron wallet v1.2.3 adds in some fantastic features for better gameplay and is REQUIRED for the Taurion competition. This update adds a zmq option which allows our new library and thus Taurion to provide real time information as soon as a player does a tx (checks memory pool and notifies client instantly).

You can download the new version here:

Hi, I just wanted to bump this very old thread with an update on the first post.

First of all we have been working on this project on and off for quite some time... albeit in a bit of a stealth mode.

In the time since we had started we have added multiple upstream fixes and updates to Bitcoin Core by working on this project.
We've also carried on the function of merged mining thus giving more incentive to mine Bitcoin itself.

That out of the way, Chronokings is now almost a reality for those that are still interested in this tech and project.

https://taurion.io




Fully decentralised, autonomous, trustless - following the true crypto path.

A Trailer here > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlLDIHWFSuo&feature=youtu.be

and some of the game information here > https://taurion.io/game-information/

Some of the pre-alpha gameplay > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPLBKPYn1LI

Definitely happy to discuss

Re: [ANN][HUC] Huntercoin - Worlds First Decentralized Game/World on the Blockchain

Huntercoin has been a dead project for some time.  The developer has moved on to a different ICO token/premined coin or whatever that had an extremely little reward for the HUC crowd.

I would strongly advise people not to buy Huntercoins at this time.

(No offense to all the great developers here and such.)

I personally lost around 60-70 Bitcoins here.


Huntercoin was a 1-year experiment, so considering we're 6 years on now, it seems that it did pretty well.

Let's also keep in mind that Huntercoin was entirely funded by the dev who spent years and never recouped costs, so I don't think it's really something to complain about. It was fun.

I never lost that much BTC, but at today's prices more than enough to buy an extremely nice new vehicle. I suppose I should've been selling when HUC was $1 or $10 or whatever. It spiked pretty high.

It was never represented to me as a 1-year experiment for fun.

Snailbrain is not the type of person I would want to do future business with is all I'm saying.

Huntercoin was a project I spent several years on, many hours a day, unpaid and without any premine (hardly)..

It was stated that it was an experiment designed for a year many times from before it started and during, and also that bots would dominate due to the gameplay. We tried to keep it going development wise but it's pretty difficult finding "volunteers" (as we all are) to help out or to agree, and especially on cutting edge stuff with very limited resources.. so unless someones getting paid it's not happening quickly.

edit:
most projects seem to premine 20-70%
the Premine for HUC was 0.2% iirc (and it was lost)..

Huntercoin was always a precursor for Chronokings - which is now pretty much https://taurion.io

We are being paid to work on Xaya/Taurion and if we are a success we will definitely focus some more resources onto Huntercoin.

I am going to push to get Xaya on some new exchanges. Will contact the exchanges directly and see if a few will list. Going to attempt top 100 exchanges listed on CMC.
I hope it will be okay to leave the dev team's contact info if there are any questions.

I think a few exchange listings, release of games, and some promotion will greatly improve awareness.

yes we are definitely happy for you to do that

Does Xaya do open finances? Like is there a page showing total ICO rake, expenses, holdings, etc.?

Hi mate.

no it does not. All the ICO information is on the forum. and our CHI address is open for viewing (and untouched and will be for the foreseeable future).

expenses, holdings, etc - are not public. Typhon Ltd (Holding Company), and Autonomous Worlds Ltd (Trading) are private companies and we are not a foundation.

Thanks. Just curious about your guy's burn rate and holdings, since I'm presuming your revenue is basically zero at this point. Good luck getting off the ground.

just an addon to this:

we have a very lean team, each with their own skillset, thus a low burn rate, yet are pumping more and better stuff out then anyone else in the space from what we can tell <3

Another update:

We are still working on "real" blockchain games at the moment, and they are coming.....

Soccer Manager Crypto > Soccer Manager Elite

We are still working with Soccer Manager to get out the beta. So unfortunately you still need to wait.

The game design has changed massively and it's going to be really exciting. It's also being re-branded - and the new name for the game is:

Soccer Manager Elite.

A bit of unreleased information - The Game will only allow up to 300 Managers of the teams... BUT... the game is still playable by 10000s+. We are hoping to get some information out how this works as soon as we are able. For now - patience is required Smiley

There will be no other game like this.

ProjectX > Taurion

We've been working full blast on our in house full on MMO and more information can be found out about it here

https://forum.xaya.io/topic/440-taurion-true-blockchain-gaming-decentralised-sandbox-mmo-human-mining/
 
Please check it out. We are really excited about it (about playing it..) - So much information hasn't yet been released in that post but it's going to be amazing.

Check out the videos on the forum link



Treatfighter

Tricky Fast are keeping everyone updated whilst working on UI fixes and are hoping for a release of the first blockchain game on XAYA. You can keep up to date on the Treat Fighter forum section.

XayaID XID

We've finished the first implementation of XayaID. You can read the readme here > https://github.com/xaya/xid

In a nutshell - his allows for the creation of secure IDs on XAYA to login to websites, games, chat systems and more.

We have already implemented this into ejabard opensource XMPP server. https://www.ejabberd.im/

This will allow for secure real-time chat (and other things like trading and more..) in and out of games using your XayaID. It will also allow for encrypted end to end chat using Xaya's blockchain for security and human readable names along with the scalability of XMPP.

You will know that the person you are talking to IS that player and with encryption, your plotting and plannings won't be eaves dropped..

Group, faction, global chats.. ejabberd is used by large players in the gaming space, such as CCP for their chat system in Eve Online.

Documentation

We've updated the XAYA Docs / Tutorials - > https://github.com/xaya/xaya_tutorials/wiki

It would look more professional if Namecoin references will be removed from the Xaya QT wallet Smiley
See the image below:


Thanks Drays Cheesy

This has already been fixed in the master branch 21 days ago > https://github.com/xaya/xaya/commit/a06b6668685abb276cf24bb78da73f5dfd6a25de

it will go in the next released version.

If you spot any more references please let us know. We keep updated with the latest bitcoin and namecoin upstream updates to make sure XAYA is in sync with the daddies - you'll find most other forks lag behind.

This is done every Monday and you see all the commits from upstream going into Xaya Smiley
