woow! some good stuff coming!

Yes sir and Voice Mail is working, just needs released. Now a message can go to voice mail, has a greeting, and there is playback of messages.  Should be released within this next week or so.

SMS is 50% working.  Need to figure out how billing can work since its .01 cent per sms roughly.

I also need to release SMS enabled US phone numbers as there is a "bit" that prevents some numbers from sending SMS.
For example numbers that are for businesses only like nnn-4900 cannot send sms (i dont know why, maybe its a PSTN thing).

Dear Rob,
I have finally managed to set up a Cantabo VPS with the specs. 8 vCPU, 30 Gb RAM, 800 Gb SSD. What is the recommended method to set up each of the sanctuaries such that I can also set up cockroachdb on the same server to optimize usage of the machine? If there is a Wiki somewhere for this process, could you please point me to it, so that I can set it up properly from the first go without having to reprovision it if I screw up.
Thank you.
Blessings

Hi Oncoapop,

Thats awesome.  Well there is no Temple guide yet, but, I can make one because we will absolutely have problems when we start talking about running 10 instances of biblepayd on different ports and also sharing the 10* instances of data directories (which requires a setting),  and also sharing the 10* config files (which requires a setting).  So I will be able to make one.

But in the mean time to get you started, pre-notes:
1) You won't need 10 sub vms inside the big vm, you will just need to run 10 instances of BBP to be a temple
2) You can ignore the section about Swap as thats only for nodes with < 1gb ram
3) You can ignore the developer notes and troubleshooting notes as those are primarily for building windows and mac

I recommend first just building one instance of biblepay first, and see if you get to the end of the build so that it makes a biblepayd file.
Once it gets that far it should be relatively easy for me to make a Temple guide and get you to the point where 10 are running properly.
Then I need to make yet another enhanced guide to handle the new unreleased cockroachdb cluster installer (which we can tackle after these first two big steps).

Plz follow this guide: Building BBP on linux:

https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/master/BuildBiblePay.txt


In my case I usually install BBP prod in "/biblepay" and BBP testnet in "/biblepaytest" from the root of the drive and install everything as root (so that all paths can be written to).

(You dont need to install bbp test, just pointing it out that you can also use that big box for testing as well.



PART II:


Here is the guide to set up 10 sancs to be a Potential Temple:

https://wiki.biblepay.org/Building_A_Temple

Let me know when you get all 10 running and Ill make a guide for releasing a cockroach cluster.

Also, if you are looking for the EasySanc doc (this is what gives you the sanctuary BLS_PRIV_KEY) there is a link for it in the Red Sea release post above (the one with the red sea picture/mandatory upgrade).

Hi Rob,

Southxchange wallet seems to still be offline have they given you any updates on this?

Thanks.

Hey Bro,

Yeah, there was some issue with building the latest release for their architecture and I just found out about the block yesterday; I posted a potential solution in their discord.  Today two of the SX engineers ack'ed.

does the bbp rate of the phone auto adjusts itself when the price changes?

Yes.  Just make a call and check your billing history, it is always charged at the exchange rate.

I am working on SMS, VoiceMail and Routing.

What about sms service also on the softphone?

Sounds like a cool thing to look into, Ill check.
But Ill probably work on routing first.  (Mapping to multiple #s).

BIBLEPAY HARDWARE PHONE IS WORKING AND READY TO BE PURCHASED




Great news, we can start with the Grandstream GXP-1610 for $35.99.

An affordable, entry level phone with high reviews that is 100% compatible with our phone network.

I've been using my hardware phone as my regular phone now for 45 days, and it has never let me down.  I've received calls and made calls in and out of my area without a problem.
The calls are nice and clear, better than you hear on crackly PSTN phone lines, as good as you hear on digital work phone networks.

To get started, you simply buy one, plug a network cable from the phone into one of your LAN jacks at home (a standard internet jack).
The phone will obtain its own IP address via DHCP.  Then once the IP is displayed you navigate to its web page, and fill in about 5 or so fields (see our wiki page).
Once provisioned it will work immediately and your BBP phone number associated with your softphone will allow inbound calls (and it rings like a normal phone).
Of course you can place any outbound call to any enabled Country (see our Rates list in Unchained) and you will automatically be billed via your softphone (see the billing tab in the softphone).

To provision your phone, you can click Phone | Hardware Phone Settings from Unchained.  This page will show your personalized settings that you can use to provision your own phone.

In the near future, we will add a GUI that allows our users (IE Business use Case) the ability to map a BBP address to an extension.  This will let you control multiple phone numbers and call routing scenarios as well.  Imagine if you own a company and you have 5 customer service reps.  This would allow you to map an incoming call to an available rep.

We also have support for the YeaLink T46G Color IP phone.  Information for that is available upon request.  Its a pricier phone.

To activate a hardware phone simply follow this wiki page:
https://wiki.biblepay.org/Activate_Hardware_Phone

To buy a phone navigate to:

However I do think the hardware phone will be ready within 30 days if anyone wants to buy one!
We have a couple Philippines users,so rates fore Philippines would be nice.I have some Philipines here in my place to.

Hi Akkin,

Good news and less than good news.

The good news is the BBP phone can call the Philippines, the less than good is the rates are about 16 cents per minute.  I posted the reason above this post that some Countries are more expensive.

On to the "how" to call one of the restricted Countries:  By default our softphone (and hardware phone) doesn't allow you to call a country where the rate is greater than .05 cent a minute unless you put in a manual override for the Country in your wallet.

To authorize calling to the Philippines, simply do this:
Click on Phone | Rate Overrides
Add the country code "PH" to your list.

Once this is added, you will be able to call the Philippines.

Hardware phone should be out any hour.

Why are some Countries more expensive to call than other Countries from my BiblePay Phone?


Some smaller carriers do not have bilateral agreements:
Some carriers with cheaper international consumer rates have sister mobile networks in different european countries which means they are able to move traffic around their own networks in order to optimise their cost. Some carriers that do not have the ability to do this will have an agreement in place with different carriers in respective local markets and pay a fee to terminate international traffic onto other carrier networks. This increased cost will be passed onto the consumer.

Certain carriers may also have bi-lateral agreements in place with different operators to achieve lower cost of termination in certain countries. It is also possible for carriers to leverage high volumes to achieve lower rates based on traffic from their own mobile customers e.g. they may be able to run promotions for certain countries, increase traffic volumes and negotiate lower rates.

Carriers and aggregators focusing on the B2B market:
A few different quality bands are available on the market at different price points. Even the top voice providers have different quality/price brackets depending on the supplier as an example you can expect to see tiers of prices that are reflected by the success level of connecting each call, the audio quality you will experience, the number that the recipient sees and even the duration of rings that the recipient can hear.

Higher quality connections will have less hops in the supply chain and better infrastructure in place to achieve business critical termination.

Ok, checking on the Philippines...

Rob,
don't worry about the call I'm joking with it ...
By the way we still need 4.500.001 BBP to start a new sanct ?

cheers
Ale

Hi Alex,

Yes sir, still 4,500,001 and the easiest way it to use the EasySanc instructions up in the red sea release.

No, I get a CC when one sells (just in case its an orphan), and I havent seen any sell since Jesus Phreak.
Also, when one sells you can still see it in the store under the new users BBP address.

I would need the hash for the item to check it.

Hi.
 I posted 3-4 times now on my facebook site.No one show intress,belive they dont like that we earn money in Jesus name.One guy he put his foot down,"no way"so its not only in exchange we have a big wall:(  God bless,stay strong in thise woke time,they are real dangerus,when they get support by goverments,its crazy in Norway right now.

Thanks for trying.
Yeah, they probably are very suspicious because so many communities are just out to steal money from users.
This currency is really by the people and for the people.  The distribution is out to everyone who ever bought BBP, its not a centralized thing.

And we have the best interests of children in the equation.  10% to orphan charity.
Now we are providing a real service to people (phone).

But I think people will start to wake up once some of the big banks fail and they realize that crypto is better security for your money than a bank, in many cases.
