Archived Proposals / Re: Consolidation of Sanctuaries

« on: April 08, 2019, 11:29:21 AM »

No ... This is not "Fairer", as someone who is happy with any of the options could vote 3 times, and have their vote counted 3x.
...
The way to approach that would be to start with a single poll, "Should we raise the cost of a sanctuary"  get a yes/no on that before trying to figure out which level to raise it to.

Yes, that would definitely be more precise. Because I am for 1 of the 3 options and I wouldn't vote up any of the other 3, but neither would I vote them down.

I am for some sort of consolidation.

I guess that people for it will vote in only 1 of the 3 proposals (the one they prefer), but owners against it will vote down all 3 proposals.

So I would propose to apply a majority of the sum of all yes votes in 3 proposals against the biggest "no" count in one of the three (will probably be the same number in the 3 proposals)

For example
3MM: 40 yes/200 no
4.5MM: 50 yes/200 no
7MM: 20 yes/200 no
40+50+20=110 yes, 200 no = no wins

3MM: 40 yes/100 no
4.5MM: 50 yes/100 no
7MM: 20 yes/100 no
40+50+20=110 yes, 100 no = yes wins and 4.5MM option wins

I think it's fairer.

1.4.1.2b-TestNet Mandatory Upgrade

- Refine GSC Voter

Ready for MacOS

Regarding Ubuntu PPAs, I still have to figure out how to compile Chia-BLS and Relic into PPAs themselves, then add them as an internal dependency... not an easy task at the moment, will report any progress.

On startup it goes past loading prayers and says done.  After that, something fails and the program kills itself.

Try the cleanup way, as some of the current database files could be corrupted:

Rob, I am more concerned about the immediate than the future state.  My wallet has been down for three days now and nothing seems to be bringing it back up.  I am not alone in this, there are others in the same boat.  How do we get our systems working again?

Download the latest wallet version (1.2.0.1) and resync. That worked for me on several nodes.

Archived Proposals / Re: Apple Developer Individual Account renewal - 2019

« on: March 12, 2019, 02:18:31 AM »

I support you on this.


Are you able to publish to Apple Store at all? Would it say MIP on it instead of BiblePay?

I can't publish on app store (It would show up with my real name lol, not MIP), in fact to some point they even stopped me from publishing betas in TestFlight, so I can only publish to my own devices (internal test),

They state that only a publisher with name "Biblepay" is entitled to publish a wallet for "Biblepay", which is a bit silly because there is no company called "Bitcoin", "Bitcoin Cash" or "Ethereum" and many 3rd party companies are publishing wallets for them.

So my fear is that even if we create a "Biblepay" company, they take it to the next level saying that they don't publish wallets of smaller or not known cryptos. But in that case we have the option to publish wallets privately (this also comes with a corporate Apple license) which is what some companies like Binance are doing.

Archived Proposals / Apple Developer Individual Account renewal - 2019

« on: March 11, 2019, 04:57:55 AM »

Hi,

I purchased a 1-year individual dev licence from Apple on April 2018 in order to have certificates for publishing signed DMGs for the Biblepay Core Client in MacOS, and also to be able to prepare a iOS mobile wallet to publish in App Store.

As you probably know already, Apple refused to publish such application because they don't allow it for individual accounts.

Currently our only alternative to create a iOS app is to acquire an Enterprise Dev license from Apple (priced 299€), which requires to consolidate a company and have a DUNS number. At this moment this is not available so we stuck here.

I want to request 99€  to renew the individual license for 2019 so we can keep our certificates to publish the Biblepay Core Client in DMG for MacOS.

At current prices ([email protected]€ and BBP=5 sat) that would mean 571594 BBP.

Thank you for your time.

For me the decomission of PoDC is a painful but necessary step, at least if we aim to reach a much bigger audience.

If it has to be this way, it's probably much better do it now rather than in the middle of a new cripto summer (and risk losing that momentum).

I also see as an advantage the increase of PoW role back to a 20% of the mining rewards, I think it will help strengthen the network more than with what we have now.

On the DIP002, I agree on doing this on a longer term scale - for "best practices".

Completely agree on this. We will have enough  "fun" even making a workable devnet on the first approach so this would go on a later stage.
