So TheSnat & I tested chat and it appears to work.  I've been monitoring for Illegal tithes and POG recipients invalid and I believe we have squashed those two bugs.

I havent heard of any possible attack vectors with POG, and it appears to be relatively solid now.  No community member has been able to challenge the algorithm for flaws, or further the assessment (that it wont be possible to design or test a new novel algorithm).  I think we have designed and tested a new novel algorithm and we are now in the final stretch of testing.  As far as stress testing it, my stress test passed (diff peaked and dropped after working through).   

The system relies on us paying approx 100K per day in miner heat rewards, and accepts approx 50K per day in donations.  You have to be careful as a giver not to give all your tithes in one block or you will incur a net loss (which, could be viewed as a positive as we dont want to reward hogs as we are a Christian Crypto).  Small givers who end up in multiple tiers per day will be more profitable.

So what I plan on doing next is taking the training wheels off.  We have been logging violations of invalid pog recipients - but not enforcing those in testnet so as to not fork.  By taking the wheels off I mean we will start enforcing those conditions.

So please ready yourselves for v 1.1.7.2 which will be a mandatory, with training wheels removed.

I need to find a debugger that works in windows..  I don't have access to a linux PC that has any power currently.

The source code needs to be on the machine and compiled for valgrind to work; so windows is not an option (short of installing a few hundred gigs of environment and configuring for 14 days), however it *is* possible for you to copy your wallet.dat and chainstate files out to a linux box and re-run the environment in linux in valgrind. 

Btw, the default valgrind flags work:  apt-get install valgrind,    "valgrind ./biblepay-qt"   etc.

I realize you dont have the linux host however.  We'll have to see if the problem rears its head - Im running 3 nodes and none have crashed so far  on the new version; ill keep looking.

Explanation of In-Wallet Chat


The original idea for in-wallet chat was born from this hypothetical idea:  Can we add a "Get Saved" button to the core wallet.  The Get Saved button would appeal to those seeking Jesus, but have never actually been saved.  A person might use it who is too shy to respond to an altar call, or maybe they will go through the process with us and we will help them understand what it means, then encourage them to get saved at church, etc.  But I envisioned having a list of on-call priests capable of helping a person get saved, and if all of our Priests are offline, the "call for the priest" redirects the user to a web page with a list of Getting Saved resources (we might have 5 different to choose from - Billy Graham, Cioccolanti, Jesus-Christ.US, etc, and the user clicks from there).  Of course, this flow requires us to have an in-wallet paging system to reach the priest, a list of on-call priests maintained in some type of 'registration' system in the chain, a chat initiation, a ringer, the ability for the priest to answer and chat with the user etc.  This led to in-wallet chat; why don't we create the first native bitcoin chat client object so we can re-use this (IE in other coins, and of course for our purposes-   General Chat Room, Private Chat, Page a Priest, Chat about a Proposal, etc).

So moving on, in version 1.0, we now have a General Chat Room and a Private Message Chat.

Note that you must set up your nickname in the config file first - set "nickname=your-name" and reboot.

PRIVATE MESSAGING


When you click Chat | PM, the wallet will ask you for the destination recipient nickname.  Enter one that you know (from POG).  The wallet will then Page the recipient 4 times, once per second.  What is happening on the other end of the line is the recipient wallet will receive the request as long as their qt wallet is open and connected, even if their chat windows are closed, and will spring up a new chat window.  This particular conversation is private between you and the recipient (however note that the actual messages are sent through the biblepay-network of nodes - and the messages are not currently encrypted - we will look into that issue later).

PUBLIC CHAT ROOM

When you click Chat | General, the wallet opens up a General chat room (we made this Chat object in a way that we will be able to have more rooms in the future).  Anyone who enters the chat *during* the conversation will be seen as such-and-such entered the chat room.  All participants can see the chat (as you might expect).

Version 1.1.7.1 is required to test this chat feature.

(Should be ready in approx 1 hour).

Nothing can be seen in the log but I think I got that bug in the upcoming version with chat.
Lets try again on the next version otherwise someone will have to run it in valgrind to get the line number.

Building....

setgenerate true doesnt working in testnet wallet btw

It still works; when I do 'setgenerate false', I can see in 'getmininginfo' the hashcounter stops.  So it appears we didnt break the existing genproclimit or setgenerate for POBH.

They are Mining rewards as they should be. Still wondering reward of 97.09 which 2 % of total. Is this correct. I have not donated from this wallet at all.

Great!  I'm glad these two UI decriptions changed over to Mining Reward from POG reward.

On the amount of 97.09, that is the correct reaper reward for that block: 20% of the heat mining reward (after Sanc was paid) is only 97.09.  (Sanc gets 4500 or so, 20% of the roughly 450 heat mining reward is 97.09).

1.1.7.0 - Mandatory Upgrade for TestNet


- Add groundwork for future BiblePay chat room (testnet) and first native bitcoin chat protocol (and call a Priest)
- Add ability for web supporter sites to add proposals, and add in the ExpenseType field (allowing web sites to add proposals with expense types)
- Fix exec pogpool to respect height (exec pogpool height)
- Fix transactionlist UI display bug showing mining payments as POG payments (also fix PODC payments that should be mining payments)
- Update exec titheinfo to show proper ROI, daily miner rewards, and daily tithe cap
- Alter Tithe Cap in testnet and prod (prod is disabled) to be accurate (this is 50K per day, with 100K mining payments) - this means TestNet should disregard all old blocks before 90,000 and start new tests going forward
- Assess block difficulty params in IsTitheLegal using the previous block, but quote diff params for current best block (fixes the Illegal Tithes issues)

I believe you have a point, good find on the old txid, thanks.


Let me do some testing and ensure we are using the correct difficulty in the best block as compared to the inductor.

Ok, I found this was a bug in the wallet.  We quote the current diff params to the user, but during block checking we should have been checking the prior block - not the current block - OK this is fixed in the next version.

  "Block_diff_max_tithe_amt": 274,

}

It took a while to find legal tithe.

Thanks for the example.  On a side note we have a feature in the next version that will allow you to type exec pogpool height, and diagnose some of this , although that feature is broken right now in your version.  But anyway looking at your wallet and its rewards, you received the first POG reward on block 91097 for 97.09 bbp. 

So here is what happened:  Those two pog rewards are incorrectly listed as POG reward on the UI.  They are actually mining rewards.  If you look at the actual transaction, the 97.09 was the reaper reward for solving the block .

So I see the bug, and its being fixed now (as far as the display issue).  Please double check in the next version that we killed it - those two should change to Mining rewards when you boot the next version.

my config:
addnode=explorer.biblepay.org
testnet=1
genproclimit=1
nickname=slovakia


still running prod, no testnet ... where is problem? after installation v168 i have this problem with testnet wallet 

thanks for help

EDIT:  If your wallet is booting in prod mode do this:

./biblepay-qt -conf=biblepaytest.conf

Save your testnet config file as biblepaytest.conf in the ~/.biblepaycore directory.

EDIT: Dont forget to add your tithe parameter.
