Is creating a sanctuary harder since moving to newer DASH code?

Yeah, it is relatively complicated.  Its still a page full of archaic commands and requires a guide to do it.  I personally recommend creating the sanctuary the old way (send 4,500,001 to your address, copy the txid vin and add an entry to the masternode.conf file, and then just upgrade the sanc to deterministic using this command - all you need is the sanctuary nickname):
https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=391.msg5968#msg5968

The primary reason I recommend this method is that BIBLEPAY (our niche feature) stores your BLS key info in the deterministic.conf file (thats one of our files). 
This allows you to revive the sanc later using our commands.

Otherwise, if we were entrirely dash, I would recommend the DASH way, but since we have advanced features - I found it extremely useful to be able to access that key and also run the 'exec revivesanc' command any time we get POSE banned.

Hi Orbis, its nice to see you have been hanging around!  No problem--

So, we are not retiring PODC, so you can still receive PODC and RandomX rewards.

POOS simply requires all the existing sanctuaries to re-lock their capital, and sponsor a Cameroon-One orphan for $40 a month in order to receive sanctuary rewards.  (Otherwise they get POOS banned in the sanctuary list).

You still have to keep the machine sending GSC stakes for PODC though daily (but of course for POOS, you dont need to power up your home PC, but you need to have a dedicated sanc running instead).

As far as POOS being connected to a sanc, take a look at the QT testnet sanc list.  Cameroon one will make a bio for each sanctuary.  If it exists, the sanc gets paid.  If it does not exist, the sanc starts getting banned, etc.  Cameroon will EDIT the bio if the user falls behind in payments.

Sancs pay a dynamic reward (depending on how many exist) so I believe that completely answers that question, but let me know.

I added a blurb in the DAC (coin-name) discussion thread that I think we should wait and put that decision off for 6 months.  At this point I personally lean a little tiny bit more to BiblePay again, based on our existing reputation we have built up.  The votes for it were really mostly neutral.

Thanks for answers.
I was asking about retiring PODC, because I read POOS wiki and there is written, that it's neccessary to retire PODC to be effective.
Maybe in 2-3 months I'll be lowering down my VPS, so my income from PODC won't be so interresting as now :)

As I understand it correctly, what look worse to me is POOS on MN. I was hardly try to get enough BBP for my next MN (even with thanks to your fractional sanc :)), but now it looks, that I won't be able to maintain even one sanc, so my BBP will be laying down on my wallet and not earning anymore :(
Now my sanc gives me around 100k BBP which is around 10-12€ and I think it won't be profitable even with lower number of sancs.  $40 a month is too much for me. Sorry. But it will be better to others :)

I'll try to check testnet before mandatory to take a look on changes.

Have a nice day to all :)

Hi Orbis,
Can you please paste the link where we said PODC must be retired in POOS?  Maybe we originally discussed it but for now, afaik, PODC will stay along with RX.

On the sanc income, if we only have 25 sancs, the BBP earnings should be much higher, but we just have to wait it out to see the actual figs.

On the testnet testing, we have a mandatory upgrade coming in about 2 hours so please hang on for the latest version,
Thanks,
Rob

The concept has the following cons:
PODC would need to be eliminated to raise the POOS budget.
More administrative burden for each sanctuary owner (approving mining permits monthly).
Stringent verification requirements to prevent fraud.

Oh ok, no wonder both you and I were confused.

I wrote that way back when I knew very little about what we would become, and, I think that concept had more to do with creating a domain that sponsors orphans etc.
IE before we even had a partner (cameroon-one) to help us establish the relationship between orphan bios and sanc, etc.

The thread for POOS is here:
https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=569.0

To cut down confusion, I changed the name of that old POOS wiki to proof of retirement and moved it.

Thanks.

Here is my first stab at the Dash Stake user guide:

https://wiki.biblepay.org/Dash_Stake

Needs a lot more user friendliness and explanation about USDBBP-USDDASH ROI still.  Will try to improve it over the next 20 days.

Just out of curiosity can you please check if your download of mac was from today?
I found the 1.5.2.1 release was bad and we re-released today with a couple changes.

Once you reinstall, please sync from zero, as llmqs have changed since our last testnet session(s).

Thanks,
Rob

Hi.
So, I've tried to run testnet BBP and I have problem to connect.
I have 1521, but don't know if it's 1521b, or not. I've downloaded it few hours back from first post of this thread.
I'm stucked on block 51851.
I've tried clean install, blockchain delete, ... but nothing worked. Still stucked.
Any idea?
