I do believe we need some sort of grouping as the issue with BBP is that we're getting big numbers.
Yes, absolutely. Horrible without, that's why I posted the link to the PDF, which shows spaces as a more modern alternative. Not a must have, but maybe a good solution for everybody.
As said, it is not the biggest thing in the world, nobody dies because of it, I only know that problem from my own experience, in my daily job that already caused some real problems
(Customer: You said 1 Meter! -> No, 1000 Meter....)We can add localisation on the list of features of the BX. I think I will try to add other functions before so it will probably be a low priority for me for now.
Nice work Alex!
There was some talk earlier in the thread about the paper wallet. Is everything up and working with it? I would like to move my coins to off my computer.
Yes its up and running. You can use it online or download it for your own use
biblepaywallet.github.io/
Suggestion: I think we could list BiblePay on the new decentralized exchange https://crypto-bridge.org/. The good thing is that they are already live and they are getting traction very fast, they already have more volume than C-CEX had, and they are actively listing coins right now. It costs 0.5 BTC and they do it in 2-4 days. I followed some coins which applied there and it's true, they listed them quickly. Also, I think it's not expensive compared to other options (about $5,000 now), especially when you take into account the decentralized nature of it, that is, which benefits that brings (which you can read more about on their website).

As far as I understand how it works, you are still in control of the deposit address to which you send the coins, the coins are still yours and that address is yours (generated locally by you), just a different one which is tied to the exchange platform.
And here is something I analyzed (which might or might not be relevant
): from the current coins listed on Crypto Bridge, there are a lot of masternode coins. So I think by listing on this exchange we can attract masternode investors, because it will be much easier for them to buy BBP on the same exchange where they buy other MN coins, so that could potentially drive the price up faster than on a different exchange of similar volume.
So if we can pay for this from the next budget, I can offer to pay the 0.5 BTC fee immediately and be reimbursed later in BBP. Or if somebody wants to help too, they are more than welcome to chip in for the fee.

Idea is promising. Homepage sells well. Web wallet isnt loading. Anyone try the pc clients?
This is promising. I just do not like exchanges with coinbase like id requirements. from their site. And they put facebook login front and center in their registration.

I've got the next video tutorial done. https://youtu.be/5-WiMBCvI8g. Updating Linux Masternode. Will work some more on the basic installing on Windows and hope to have it out quicker than the turnaround this one took. On the plus side, got the video editor working better, so it looks more professional.
Nicely done 616westmoth. I check some of it out and your voice and content organization are great. My only comment would be to change the initial splash screen. It has a very washed out feel to it. Try to use all white colors so the text stands out
Hey Rob, SEO_Account was attempting to create a Proposal on the Pool website but he noticed this message:
"** Note: Each new Proposal costs 2500 BBP. Please do not Save the proposal unless you agree to pay 2500 BBP **"
Does the proposal fee come out of the pool account? How does this work?
(If it does come out of the pool account, is there a way to send funds to ones pool account?)
If BBP price is about $0.01 per BBP, thats about ~$25?
My understanding is that proposal fee is to help reduce spamming of proposals?
Thanks!, Togo

Yeah, someone tried to create a proposal pointed to a web site that had a virus on the page. I think theyve tried pretty much everything now.
(That almost beats the one where they uploaded a virus into an orphans letter).
So I had to raise the bar a little bit to enter proposals.
You know, in Dash, its 5 dash to create a proposal, and since that is like $5000, over there the proposer usually asks for reimbursement inside the proposal.
So I recommend doing the same thing here, pad the 2500 bbp on top of your proposal amount.
The amount is deducted from the users pool balance.
Its also there to help reduce proposals down to serious proposals only, the least I would expect is someone to spend $25 up front to ask us to evaluate the proposal (as it takes all of our time to vote on it and read it and discuss it) etc.
I could deposit BBP into ones pool account if a person sends me BBP, Ill credit the pool account if need be.
Awesome!, oh man so many terrible people in the world... ugh
The 5 Dash fee has been interesting to watch given how much it costs now, its hard for the average joe to create proposals over there,
I think theyve been debating a lower fee, but also theyve debating ideas like sub DAOs, and having organizations that vet projects and fund the fee,
very interesting to watch unfold. There was one pretty awesome team that I saw that proposed creating a hardware wallet device for Dash and they got rejected, RIP $5k
Currently I only have ~400 BBP in my pool account and I guess SEO_Account doesnt have much BBP in his either,
I know your pool site abstracts the complexity of creating the proposal in the blockchain, which is awesome!,
but yeah It would be cool to be able to fund my pool account if possible!
I think this is going to cause it to be harder for individuals who want to do work with us who dont mine on the pool or who dont have any coins
(especially new charities/nonprofits and such), and I believe it also centralizes the process and causes you to have to do more work
(which Id like to lift as much extra work as possible from you!), but I do think the proposal fee is totally necessary.
Is there a way to enter the proposal into the blockchain without using the pool?
I believe there is, I can dig into it and write instructions, but not sure if it would show up on the pool website, hmmm
Ok, credited you the BBP to your pool account.
The commands to do it from the chain are actually in the pool source code, its not easy, but its not rocket science. It requires dumping 6-7 fields in notepad, creating a hex proposal with rpc commands, sending money to escrow in the chain, recording txid, sending the thing into the chain as a proposal with escrow, so yes it can be done manually.
I would not worry about this centralization too much right now, as I think the weed and feed nature weeds out corruption and is a greater benefit than spending time on the issue, we have a lot to do, and technically its still decentalized anyway. I think we should take a look at creating a spreadsheet of third world countries and filling fields with attributes for the unbanked, and starting an initiaitve to add a bbp feature taht services the unbanked and somehow, provides food to starving children in that area. We could ask Webster to make us a mobile electrum wallet, and lets try to be the creator of some high technology that lets you buy a loaf of bread in that area, or use bbp like a checking account.
The stragglers will come on the board and beg you to enter a proposal, not a problem.
You rang.. lol
Yeah Id love to do that and actually AM doing that. I am considering different server side options for the RPC side. There are many libs out there to choose from . I have dug a bit into electrum server and got it installed but then got distracted with the UI side of things. Ive got several learning curves im going through with all these technologies (front and back) and languages so bear with me as I figure out several approaches.
Also Ill never be able to mine 2500 bbp...with the missing blocks and my very low cpu resources id be lucky to reach that target in weeks. So to submit a proposal I will have to forward you some coins when Im ready to put something together. And I def want to get into this next blocks budget. Also have some interesting ideas for a PR project. Going to be a very busy next two weeks for me...
... I am going back to my coding cave now to absorb the bookmarks.... if only i could pause time to let my brain catch up to all these different bits of pieces ....
So my wallet is not registering the new balance from the superblock payment. It shows balance 0 but the block explorer has the transaction. Confirmations are over 12 now. Any ideas ? I have imported the address in two separate computers so I know my private key works
EDIT: On further research it appears the balance is immature. I assume it will take 24 hours to mature (?)

It takes 102 blocks. You should be able to double click on the transaction to get more details on it if you're using the qt wallet.
Thanks! Why is it designed to be that way? Is it to ensure the address/balance is well known throughout the network and block chain?
https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/40655/coinbase-transactions-100-block-cooldown-period
This is probably better explained here than I could.
Perfect thanks! I figured it had something to do with how a transaction from the coinbase is different than peer-to-peer.
So I suppose this means the pool is always 12 hours behind a coin generated and why 24 hours is needed as an additional buffer to withdrawal

Superblock is 19 blocks away! (Block 24600)
Assuming 7 min blocks are actually 9.5 minute blocks, (205 blocks solved a day vs 150 blocks solved a day)
Superblock will be in about 3 hours, so probably ~1:20am US Central time Sunday 1/7/18
Good luck everyone, its time to sleep here, Ill be on in about 6 hours.Assuming 7 min blocks are actually 9.5 minute blocks, (205 blocks solved a day vs 150 blocks solved a day)

Congrats Togo! And it landed on Sunday the 7th
Thank you all sanctuary owners for approving the Biblepay Paper Wallet into the last budget. I have some nice goodies cooking to delight you all once again!
Thanks Rob for such an innovative system!

I don't believe there is such thing as a Hell.
Hell is very real. No one chose to exist, yet through no fault of their own, by no fault of any of the decisions people who suffer with chronic illness have made, people with chronic illness suffer every day with no hope of relief. They suffer with no hope of relief. That shows the existence of Hell. Christ came to show He is the Living God by actively healing people with chronic illness, directly showing his power over Hell. None of your gods healed people from chronic illness. It is just like your religion to claim any god is an avatar of vishnu. That is not impressive. You have decisions to make which can lead to escape from Hell. But people suffer from no fault of their own decisions and you think you can escape suffering after death while you had the knowledge and ability to make decisions that could save you? I believe in Hell much, much more than the existence of Heaven. An afterlife of existing as a spirit is undesirable to me. Existing as a spirit means you know you are dead. It is an uncomfortable feeling.
Really good video of someone who claims to be in hell for 23 minutes.

My Bible reading for the day. I share my insights with the Biblepay community
Why doesnt God speak out loud?
The atheist asks 'If God exists, why does he not speak audibly to humans and remove all doubt?' After all, they say, if God is all knowing, all powerful, eternal, and ever present, shurly He could speak a few words to us. Or is your God a mute?"
Indeed many times in my life as I have cried out to God for wisdom, I have asked for signs and a clear 'Do exactly xyz about this situation'. But no audible voice was heard.
The classic Christian response to this question is God speaks to us through His Word the Bible. He has laid out His commandments, His precepts, and many accounts of His dealings with peoples throughout history. And it is true in the Bible we have many accounts of God speaking directly and audibly to His prophets of old.
But it seems a bit of a cop-out. Why does God not SPEAK OUT LOUD?
I found the answer this morning in Exodus 20 and Hebrews 12.
Let us read:
When Moses took the Israelites to the wilderness, he took them near the mountain where God rested. In Exodus 20:18 we read:
I want you to picture and hear that scene in your mind. Imagine standing in front of such a mountain! Of course the people 'stood afar off'. But look at what it says next:
This scene before them was terrifying. They begged Moses to be an intermediary between this 'God of the fire mountain' and them. As they would be terrified to hear the ACTUAL voice of God.
In Hebrews 12 we read:
Here we find the answer to the atheist.
God will not speak OUT LOUD as it will annihilate us.
His voice is so powerful, it would shake earth and heaven itself. The atheist would not stand but be blown away like chaff in the wind.
Thank God He does not speak out loud! Thank God we have His Words instead written down for us to read in our own voice. And thank God that believers and those that received His spirit (that cries Abba-father) can hear His voice in their own spirit.

19. "And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die." .... "And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake;" (Heb 12:21)
This scene before them was terrifying. They begged Moses to be an intermediary between this 'God of the fire mountain' and them. As they would be terrified to hear the ACTUAL voice of God.
In Hebrews 12 we read:
Quote
Heb 12: 19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
Heb 12:26: "Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain."
Heb 12:26: "Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain."

Re: [2017-12-29] Venezuela to Launch Petro Digital Currency Within Days
I'm very curios to learn more about technical details of this upcoming coin. I really doubt that any government in the world would issue a true, decentralized and permissionless cryptocurrency, so this Petro is most likely to be a payment system akin to PayPal. But it may not mean that it will fail immediately, because even today we have many centralized "cryptocurrencies" like Ripple and Iota and investors doesn't really seem to care about it as their marketcaps have grown past those of real cryptocurrencies like Litecoin or Monero.
It was developed with help from China. So it is going to be a serious coin
Rob-
Are you all done tweaking the pool shares algo? I have 3 vultr servers running and before maybe friday it was generating over 100 coins per hour. Now down to 12 and sometimes 0 / hr. Is this what I can expect going forward? Will it increase at start of month? Its very unclear how this all works tbh. If you could retweak it for the little guys again that would be great not only for me of course but for third world countries.
Edit - It is unpredictable. Now saying 35/hr

What is the appetite out there for me to develop a mobile wallet for Biblepay?
Id like to submit a proposal for it but its a BIG task and the budget this time around is all out.
Quite frankly id love to set apart one month to work on biblepay fulltime
But I wanted to get a feeler from others if they would want such a thing?

Thanks Togo. Thats 1 vote! Hopefully they own a sanctuary for funding LOL
Do you recommend I break this down into separate deliverables?
And include it in the next budget cycle? Is it every 2 weeks?
I recommend creating a semi-detailed proposal and sharing the URL, and include how many hours are attributed to each step and lets review it. Since we dont have to create this from scratch (I assume you would port the electrum client over to work on biblepay) it would be good for us to see the hours estimation on each step before asking the network to vote on it.
I think it will be very important to deliver each deliverable every two weeks so we can see how its coming along, something that is checked in to github and demoable.
The budget is monthly.
One other thing to do the due diligence on is try to find out who is going to run the electrum server, and the hours associated with making it work with biblepay and the monthly charges to run one.
Ok sounds good. At this point Id just like to be able to scan a generated QR code from my paperwallet and then send funds to it. That would be the first milestone -- and that is a considerable amount of server plumbing, UI design, and mobile programing to get working!
