« on: March 04, 2020, 01:00:38 PM »For sure things arent as heated as back in 2016, the ethereum boom and all.Yea, good point on the traffic and stuff. When Vitalik called me on my cell phone back then I really didn't understand the gravity of the situation - at the time he sounded like he was designing a rocket engine, but it was so advanced... it's something I'll have to discuss some time.
But should revenue go up for miners in comes alot of new people.
Also cpu mining are getting more and more folks intrested, for example monero switching to cpu friendly randomX . And i belive some other algos also designed for cpu only.
Yeah bitcointalk is one place but i think reddit has more new people , people asking how to do setups and all. More active if i say so.
Also i belive monero community seems to be happy sponsoring professors and mesh networking prototypes and what not. A giving/sharing community so i think most folks would be positive about what you doing here.
As for xmrig developers might add somewere " to donate xmrig developers: xmr adress: btc adress: .
Well you get my point.
So yes on the donate, I did put the 'suggestion' in the code, but yes good idea to make it on the display: I added it to the next version.
10-4 on the new users, that will be very good.
So an update for everyone, I did add the spork last night, and we can test that during the next release. I believe I will be able to unit test that change locally so no rush.
I also erased my chain and resynced my local node, and I see it made it to the top block without a problem, so I believe this latest patch is all we needed for prod.
One side note guys that could help: If anyone wants to try mining (solo mining in the wallet) against Prod in this random-x QT wallet (not randomx mining, regular POBH mining against prod). Just make sure this 1.5.0.4 version syncs to the top in prod and solo mines (-erasechain=1 first). This is for our regression testing (to ensure we didnt break any existing features before the RX cutover height). We need to see that prod masternodes can also be seen in the Sanc list, and that the governance data is visible in this branch.
Finally, I am just about ready to create a wiki page for the game plan for 'corporate whitebranding'. The reason this ties into testnet is we could potentially start the initiative (that replaces all of biblepay's branding information with monikers). Monikers allow CSS, logos, brand slogans, narratives, and coin phrases to be replaced with the corporations identity. I'm just mentioning this because if the plan becomes solid, we can potentially test part of this in testnet while we wait to upgrade to RX. On a side note, I'm still shooting for a potential end of March roll-out. (We can't upgrade more than once per quarter due to the exchange rules). However I also don't want to release 'too much' good information at once for BiblePay as that might rocket us accidentally up to the top 5 coins too quickly, etc.
