Seems fine over here.  Just let me know if you need me to help.

Ok maybe its my Norton blocking the ports ill have a play with it next week as i don't have the time at the moment.
But 100% i cant telnet in to it.. very strange this just started happening.

Hi Rob,

I am doing great i hope you are too my friend.

Maybe it was my Norton, i had it on auto i just set BBP to allow all. and run the command will see how it goes.

It is definitely doing it again. firewall is completely open and i also forwarded the port to my pc just to check. But for some reason i cannot telnet in to it anymore, since the update.

Hi bro Budinga, hope you have been good!

Could you give me the sanc IP?
You can try this, from the home IP type:
telnet your_sanc_ip your_sanc_port
And see if it answers?

If other nodes can see your sanc it should stay in non investor state.

Oh btw, you have to allow whatever your port is through your VMS firewall too (as a sanc).

Hi Rob,

I am doing great i hope you are too my friend.

Maybe it was my norton, i had it on auto i just set BBP to allow all. and run the command will see how it goes.

BiblePay 0.17.4.2
Mandatory Upgrade for Sanctuaries and Home Controller Wallets


- Add more robust POSE ban for investors (keep our quorums intact) and keep investor payments at 50%
- Add Investor pose status to masternodelist UI and masternodelist rpc command
- Added exec versionreport so we can see the % that have upgraded

** Note: On your self compiled sanctuary, you can simply type "git pull origin master && make -j4" to upgrade.  Then stop and restart all instances.

Hi Rob,

Since version 0.17.4.1 my Sanctuary keeps going to invest , i revieveSanc then its fine for  a bit and then after a while it goes back to been Invest, any ideas?

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.

Thanks Rob that's great, I was just wondering how long it was gonna be, as long as they are working on it then its all good.

Take care my friend.

We are now solving 7 minute blocks on sancs!  Pretty exciting.  It was a little hairy getting past block 428001.
SouthXChange put our wallet in maintenance and are still in process of upgrading.
Bololex and txbit.io and Chainz Block Explorer have upgraded.

My BBP hardware phone is awesome, I actually really like it.  The quality is great.  I'm going to give my son a hardware phone this week (so I have two in my house).  Had to call someone in Chicago the other day for 373 seconds and got billed a pretty cheap rate :
373   $0.146   ₿ 2753.20   f139b1df68a44681f03bf299c57033dbc176bea955ffdd7dc884f67eaffe0661   
When you make a call you get billed on chain.

Our hardware phone should be out within 30 days!  If anyone is interested in getting one, push me to get the info out sooner.  The hardware phone is about $40 and comes with a US phone number and all calls automatically get billed to the chain and has the same global rates as our softphone.

All this really involves is plugging in the phone into a cat5 jack in your house and navigating to the Config page and punching in a few lines of settings in the phone and it works immediately.  It takes your phones BBP address' private key.  Its an extremely cool setup.

Regarding our long term roadmap, there is a new service coming soon called Marqeta.  Remember we have an entry to eventually release BBP debit cards on our roadmap?  Marqeta legally integrates with cryptocurrencies in the US.  I'm hoping to get that slated as a project within a year as well (after our finances improve).  They require a certain amount of collateral to set up (dont have the details yet but I inquired).

Hi Rob,

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

Thanks.

Ok, thats great that you got EasySanc up!  So once the mandatory block passes I will explain a little more about how the new investor sanc feature works in the background.
There is a daemon that runs that will revive your sanc automatically (thus keeping the investor payments flowing even if you get POSE banned).

I forgot about having to have a few bbp in the CPK.  Ill have to mention that also.

Those go to the network fees for the revival tx.

Great thanks Rob. I was gonna ask for  a bit more info on how it works.

Just one question do we all get paid the same or does the amount we have in the Sanctuary matter?

83
I dont know, all they said was:
Hi ,
 
Thanks for your patience while we investigated your request.

Below your IP address(es) and their status(es) are listed.

Not qualified for mitigation


If you want to try with your hotmail you can send a message to microsoft support and say they should allow messages from your hotmail to go to @biblepay.org.


Regarding having to -erasechain=1, that happens if your client is between mandatory upgrades and not in sync.

Thanks Rob.

I managed to get my EasySanc up and running. The only issue i had was for some reason i had to put some coins in to my CHRISTIAN-PUBLIC-KEY address before it would let me revive the Sanct.

Apart from that pretty simple to setup.

Good Work thank you for the easy tutorial.

Thanks for being here Prof Budinga.  Its always nice to have loyal support for biblepay that actually cares.

Btw, Budinga and I have discovered HOTMAIL blocks the biblepay forum emails.  That explains the user a few pages back that was not receiving our FORUM Emails.  All other domains, to my knowledge, are getting through From the Forum.


I also Tested hotmail, I created a hotmail account and sure enough if I send myself an email from my biblepay address, it does not go through.

So my suggestion is Anyone using hotmail here, please change your email address to something else, anything but Hotmail.


I opened a ticket with Hotmail yesterday asking them to fix it and they autoreplied: DENIED without a real reason.  Ill try again another way asap.

That's a bit silly denied for what? i suppose they want you to move the domain to hotmail.

Just downloaded the latest version syncing the blockchain now, wouldn't let me load without deleting the blockchain first.

Alright, here is a peek at the new BBP softphone, which is part of the Red Sea release (testnet thread):

Fantastic work my friend. Cant wait for the new features.

Mining / Re: Hanalani Pool Connection issues

Hi guys,

 I have been getting this issue for the last 24hrs. Just says my IP is banned. In fact I cant connect to the unchained pool either.

Donation mining is working though.

Thank you for being here, Mr. Budinga.

You are most welcome my friend.

   c.   Add Trust Wallet Integration (Allows the user to use ONE trusted mobile wallet for all of their crypto, including our 10 currencies and earn UTXO rewards on the portfolio)
   d.  Add the BiblePay Cryptocurrency Index - this is an index of 10 major currencies.  To view it, click Misc | Portfolio Builder.

  b. Enhance listutxostakes to actually be JSON
- NFT 1.0 (Non-Fungible Tokens) and NFT marketplace.  Dedicated marketplace for Orphans and for Digital Goods
   b. Add NFT Auctions (Buy It Now Amount and Reserve Price)
- Referral Codes 1.0 (allows user to generatereferralcode, listattachedreferralcodes, checkreferralcode, claimreferralcode).  This type is used for viral PR.
  b. Note: referralrewards bonuses decay over 2 years similar to RAC (this keeps our emissions schedule perfectly aligned and phases out viral rewards over time).

  c.  Add gift key to givers wallet so they can recall the gift if it is never redeemed.
- Add Alpha Invoicing and Payments and Statements v1.0 (This is mostly integrated but still disabled and in alpha).
- Unchained feature: Add DSQL to server side (this supports an insert and a read) in alpha.  This feature is still in Alpha (see our unchained project: https://unchained.biblepay.org/).
   b. Add rest pushtx, getaddressutxo. This is also for unchained, allowing a decentralized client to relay a tx, allowing a c# consumer to query utxos, and query DSQL data.
- Add rpc getvalue command - Allows you to convert from BBP to USD
- Remove Randomx calls on MAC making it an SPV client (this allows us to notarize the mac software)
  b. Update build instructions for mac cross compiling
- Add erasechain UI (to wallet tools)



1.  All sanctuaries need to be re-created (because we have transitioned to DM blocks, and our old sancs were created inside non-dm blocks).
    a.  You must re-create your sanctuary as a deterministic sanc.  Please see this guide:
         https://wiki.biblepay.org/EasySanc
    b.  Please contact cameroon-one with your new public key (copy the orphan bio from the Sanctuaries UI page and send to cameroon) so that your bio can be updated.
2.  All leaderboard UTXOs need to be re-created as Portfolio Builder positions.  Note that we now monitor Cryptocurrency Addresses (in contrast to individual utxos).
    a.   We still use pins.  Since the leaderboard is empty, I will explain how to jumpstart some position easily and then you can move to the more elaborate positions later.
    b.   To easily create a BBP position, simply click Misc | Portfolio Builder.  Select BBP from the Coin Ticker dropdown.  Populate an Amount.  Click Send.  BBP will allocate that much into your position (which is equivalent to our old easybbpstake command).  Then you will be in the leaderboard.
3.  When you upgrade, if you are running QT, you will need to click Tools | Erase Chain and restart (this will start with a clean chain).  If you are running a full node, start with -erasechain=1.
     The reason why is we have added the timestampindex and the addressindex as a default option to our chain which consumes two more database index positions therefore a rescan is required.  The address index is Required for all sanctuaries.  (If you do not erase the chain you will go out of sync).
4.  Both pools need to upgrade immediately (these DM blocks are not backwards compatible).  Foundation.biblepay.org has upgraded already and fun has been notified.
XMRig miners are not affected as the miner will seamlessly mine through the mandatory upgrade.
5.  Note to self compiled nodes:  You will need to cd depends, and rebuild the dependencies, rerun autogen.sh and rebuild.  (We have a new set of dependencies in this branch).  Follow Build Biblepay for more information:  https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/master/BuildBiblePay.txt

Hi bro--

You can still mine podc for 30 more days but the more permanent way is RandomX for the coinbase reward, then starting on March 1st you can do utxo-staking:

https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=517.msg10188#msg10188

If you have any BBP saved up by now it will be easy for you to create long-positions.  And if you have any other of the supported cryptos even more, as these positions will be seen in the leaderboard for daily rewards.



5600 BBP

Thanks rob i will look in to that.
Maybe i will continue for 30 more days.
