Rik8119 242 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Though there are no dates to fix the progress i like to announce what is planned/going on and a short explanation also to #Solidar: TOPIC: Port Solidar to Version 14, this will be a hard one, because Merge mining and demurrage has to be ported. TOPIC: I like to make deposits possible and i am thinking about an easy to use/ effective (automated with no further interaction) way to prevent multiple accounts. TOPIC: With the porting to V14 there is an easy way to compile windows clients on ubuntu what makes it a whole lot easier for me to compile new wallets for every version. TOPIC: Marketing, make a short describing video. TOPIC: Get the dnsseeder running again. TOPIC: Get an own Forum for Solidar. TOPIC: Program SolidarPay plugin to accept split payments with the merchant bot. DONE: There is no explorer atm and the most convenient way seems to me to use an electrum server to query addresses, because most alternatives don't work for Solidar. DONE: I like to advance the facebook messenger on-line wallet to increase merchant compatibility. DONE: @fedde is working hard to implement it into freiexchange.com, thanks a lot for that. Other exchanges are not planned atm as it is very costly to get Solidar on, there is no demurrage implemented and exchanges like to cut support when something is not as expected (mostly profits). Here a short description what the concept is about: When you just wait with your account (just check balance monthly to get an income) at some point you get as income what the demurrage cost you, so there is a stable redistribution system in place. So, at a certain point there is nothing to win by hoarding. As the higher balanced addresses are stronger degraded than the smaller even the basic income can not save those, so that sooner or later all look the same (excluded the mining addresses). But as capitalism (the concentration of wealth) is an ongoing mechanism there will always be richer peoples that loose money to demurrage, so the monthly income is thought for those that can not save any money. They have to spend it and they profit the most because they get an unconditional income. Demurrage money is meant to be spend for quality food, clothing, technology and social improvements (e.g. donations to open source developments/free music). Those who tend to hoard will not profit but most important dont take away opportunities from other people! Of course the association have to use some funds to finance development marketing and organizations if there are not enough donations, but we try to keep the profile as low as possible and every coin spend will be transparent, so everybody can participate in keeping the costs low. Most likely fedde will include Solidar first but i keep it updated.. Rik Skaro, Bicknellski and Victor 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 a) Can the Market wallet receive the 'basic income'? Where do you sign-up for the basic income? c) Can't you use our new explorer for Solidar? I should think all you have to do is: 1)clone it from GitHub then search and replace in DataStore.py and Abe.py "1/POWER(2,20)" with "4/POWER(2,20)" 2) other regular ABE things that change for different coins.

Rik8119 242 Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hi Skaro, at the moment it is just possible to sign in by using the solidar bot at facebook. But my idea was to create a sign up portal where you can sign up with your email. I had around two hundred accounts on it. But most of them were without a Solidar address or even any login. Additionally it was not possible to manage the payout automatically, so i had to use an sendtomany command to send the income and had to control which addresses were new and if they were up to date.. So i decided to switch to the facebook bot. It can check if a user has send a request in a month, so he receives the income for being active. One can send and receive solidar with other bot users off chain (fast and fee free). And you can withdraw your coins via the bot. Everything automated.. I can try to use the ABE explorer but i did it a few times in the past and it always got stuck after some time (my guess is that the merge mining created big blocks when there was a miner using p2pool with 256 coinbase payout addresses each block (only for the parent chain). But hey, lets try ;-). Skaro 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Yeah you mentioned that before, the merge mining and the explorer. I believe you, but I don't really understand it. The way I see it, the explorer reads and parses in info from the wallet block chain files. as long as the block is valid it should read? But it's true that ABE also surmises the current longest chain ... Bicknellski and Rik8119 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The Interface is showing the blocks and i am very happy (although there are other important things on the list this was a pain for me for a long time). I had a 50 SLR bounty for making a working block explorer, if you like to have it please say which address i should send to.. Rik Skaro 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Thanks. That's awesome that it's working. Downloading an SLR Wallet was on my list of things to do (I really should write it down). So I'll send you an addy this weekend. There are still some improvments to make: fees are not calculated correctly in the transaction view (the are correct in the block view); we don't really need to show 'outstanding' or coindd. So I'll let you know when they are made. So... is there a website for your explorer? Link to post Share on other sites
Rik8119 242 Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 In the evening, maybe. Ps the windows wallet is not operational because its out of date. I have to compile a new version, but my windows is not booting. Link to post Share on other sites
fedde 311 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Rik, if you need hosting, let me know, i'll hook it up on a server. Rik8119 and Bicknellski 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Rik8119 242 Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hi fedde, i would really like to but first i have to fit the demurrage calculation. And there is something i dont understand. In line 1785 in https://github.com/wincev/bitcoin-abe/blob/b0302d2575a911351c7df96ee7b291f5cc0ea969/Abe/DataStore.py There is the number 174558 shouldnt this be the newest block height? tx['value_in'] = None if value_in is None else int(value_in)*pow((1-1/pow(2,20)),(174558 - block_id)) Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 hmmm that's not the latest version. We don't discount that variable anymore. Also, we were using 174558 as a test. Maybe that lingered around for a while though, but it is not like that in mine. Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Here is the up to date one. Unfortunately, you will have to reparse the whole block chain because the newer version parses in reference height. https://github.com/eddef/bitcoin-abe/tree/master/Abe Link to post Share on other sites
Rik8119 242 Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 THanks a lot, is the newest version online somewhere? The master branch of the link you pasted is still using the test variable. Link to post Share on other sites
fedde 311 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 lemme check, i think that is the latest one ( @Skaro can you confirm), if not i will push the latest code from the server to github so we have a updated version there. Link to post Share on other sites
fedde 311 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Just pushed the latest from server, as you will see there is some changes that was not up to date on github. https://github.com/eddef/bitcoin-abe/commit/ccea03f27d3e016952b75619ce170bc7607ead27 Link to post Share on other sites
Skaro 129 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 That appears to be the correct one. I also did a search and do not find a 174558 in it (to make sure we are seeing the same thing) Link to post Share on other sites

fedde 311 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 @Rik8119 lets first get it all up and running and get the new version of the exchange online, as i need a explorer connected to the exchange also to provide correct links for lookups on txid's for your coin. Link to post Share on other sites

Skaro 129 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 @jimbitFor withdraws there is: 1) a 2-factor enabled security check the user must do; 2) sometimes funds will be needed to be moved from cold to hot wallets; 3) for BTC, there is a manual release required by admin.
