Original exchange is great, and I'm looking forward to atomic swap. Amoveo adoption by not relying on centralized exchanges would be very cool.
Z
09:25
Zack
yes, atomic swap would be nice
09:26
the bitcoin side seems fairly complicated still.
For example, to prevent signature malleability, you have to make a bitcoin contract that you sign both ways.
09:31

So, starting from exchange and reuse the codebase later for atomic swap is good strategy.

Zack i have my key.db and i want to make a transfer with amoveos. i thought key.db was the private key and i tried with amoveopool but it didnt work. how i can get my privatekey, or what is the easiest way to transfer? any easy comand from the full node?
Z
21:29

keys.db is an encrypted copy of your private key. It works from inside of a full node.

so turn on your full node, and make the transfer.

It is better to use "delete_account" if you don't intend to use the account again. it sends all the veo and gives you are reward for cleaning up after yourself.

api:off(). halt(). git pull make prod-restart P1 = lists:nth(3, peers:all()). sync:get_headers(P1). sync.start() and nothing even with make clean. it doesnt start syncing. i have tried almost everything i have seen in docs, am i loosing something?

List of peers propagates, blocks propagate, headers propagate, txs propagate

it only auto syncs if i add myself to peers and trade those with others

If you aren't in the list of peers, then no one can send you anything.

http://159.65.120.84:8080/explorer.html
look up 12500.
I bet that none of the miners are messing with the time stamps, so the middle one should be the median.
05:52
We are at 6 minutes per block now. I guess that difficulty wasn't too high.
05:53
looks like it has been about 3.5 days so far
05:54
If the period between the 2 medians is less than 6.9 days, then the difficulty goes up.

so looks like diff is going up

If the difficulty went down by more than a factor of 4, that would be a problem.
If it takes more than 25 days to get to the next median, that would be bad.
Anything less than 25 days is good.

How to sell EVO?

I was working on the problem with the mining pool where we would pay people who mined orphaned blocks, and I noticed that if you publish 2 txs at once, sometimes one gets dropped.
I found a problem in block_absorber where the list of txs got flipped, and it caused some of them to get dropped.

I fixed it, so now txs aren't getting dropped so much.

I moved my GPU over to that opencl miner. It seems about 6% faster for Nvidia 750/1050/1060 models. It's >40% faster on K80s for whatever reason. Optimal numblocks value appears slightly higher than my CUDA code for most cards. The memory controller load is near 0 and it runs hotter, so clearly it's doing work far more efficient somehow.

No - I was just thinking the "getwork exceptions" from his screenshot might be caused by http blocking. Perhaps an Antivirus software was blocking it. I have AVG installed, and it seems to halt these miners the first time I run them. Maybe something like an AV was blocking the http too.

There is a minimum difficulty target that's pretty low. Anything above that gets credited. An absolute min is good for avoiding spam. "Too low" still happens when bhash changes on the node, which causes garbage solutions.

@jimtalksdata how do you estimate the next median in your diff projection?
J
04:16
Jim
Not a perfect estimate as actual code finds median of each 1000 block period, then averages that
04:16
But with current trends, we may actually increase difficulty by a slight amount next round
04:20
Maybe 2500-3000?
MF
04:38
Mr Flintstone
hmm
04:39
what time zone are the block timestamps supposed to be?
04:39
12500 was 3/31 at 6:45 am
04:40
if block 13500 is at like 5 am on 4/7 then the diff won’t change
04:41
but if we assume 300 second blocks here on out, 13500 will be in about 24hrs
04:42
which is ~36 hrs away from 5 am on 4/7
04:42
so 6.9/5.4 * old diff should be new diff?
04:43
so like 2500

not sure if this is actually how it works

That happens because you find a partial solution to a block hash that has expired. The 'new work' would have the updated block hash puzzle. The block hash refreshes about every 40 seconds on the Amoveo node, so this race condition happens occasionally.

a 51% attack isn't necessarily very profitable.
Verge seems to have had a timestamp vulnerability that made it easier to pull off.
19:17
to do this to Amoveo, you would have to maintain 51% control for 1000 blocks of normal difficulty.

Which would give us plenty of time to see the attack coming, and to do a hard fork to stop it.

None of these crimes are related to a blockchain timestamp attack.

These crimes all either involve gaining unauthorised access to data or causing a computer to malfunction. Even if a blockchain loses value, all the computers running the blockchain are functioning normally.

They are all crimes that happen to a central computer that is owned by a person or company with a legal presence in a country.

Since a blockchain doesn't have a country, it isn't clear what court they would use to sue.

Since a blockchain doesn't have an owner, it isn't clear who would have the right to pursue legal recourse.

Running a non-standard full node can't be a crime, because there is no way to decide which full node is standard, and which is an attack.

The competing devs will lie and say that the exploit I found was never really an exploit.

It is too expensive for anyone to verify if the exploit was real or not.

00:12
It's like if you are manufacturing paper towels.
It makes sense to buy competing brands, and to make a video showing that your brand is more absorbant.

Yes this hurts the competition.

It is important to be able to measure blockchains against each other to find which is more secure.
The only reliable way to do this is by executing attacks.
Otherwise the devs will just lie and claim their own blockchain is most secure.

I like your business example. I think it would be good to think more business-like and less war-like. When I say 'good' in this context, I mean, it will bring your ends for Amoveo to be #1 and to change the world and save the unbanked sooner, than thinking war-like. Means-end relationship.

"The only reliable way to do this is by executing attacks" — NOT true. You can be resilient to attacks by making Amoveo more robust against attacks. Attacks can and do happen without you being the one doing the attacking.

You should recognize (means-end still) that if you put your name and face on an attack and destroy another (albeit inferior) dev's wealth from another competing chain, that they may engage in REAL war-like, extra-market tactics and attack you, outside of the blockchain realm. Or they may hire the government to do that for them.

Secondly, I believe you are a great developer, but you can't do everything. You can think like a business person and spend all your time working on Amoveo's fundamentals, or you can split your time up and spend some time attacking other chains. This reflects poorly on Amoveo, (we still aren't talking right-wrong, we are talking means-end), and leaves Amoveo more vulnerable to attack. If you work on fundamentals, with time Amoveo will prove itself by surviving the test of time.

It would make little sense for a burger king across the street from mcdonalds to say "by selling cheeseburgers, they are attacking us"... This may be blockchain terminology, but it's not business terminology. I think in the long run amoveo will win sooner if you focus on making Amoveo better, and let the professional attackers do the attacking
Z
00:47
Zack
We could use a dominant assurance contract on amoveo to fund a propaganda campaign, to convince the people that attacking our competitors is morally good.

Like how the military pays to have movies and TV shows made, and they pay to be involved in football games.
00:48
In reply to this message
When I build better defenses, I also realize ways to attack competitors at the same time. They are both the same thing.
00:51
Once we have ASICS, I think we will need to attack and destroy any small blockchains that try using our same ASICS.
Otherwise if they grow too much, it would make amoveo less secure against attacks.

By doing good and being good, people will naturally be attracted to you and Amoveo. I think the assumption that "Amoveo will remain on the same course if we actively attack other chains, and the other chains will then fail" should be examined very closely. I think the "Amoveo will remain on the same course" is the part that is feeble.

People will turn against you, and Amoveo will die.

Bitcoin and bitcoin cash have been coexisting for a while.

This means that one of them is being supported by altruists who are willing to lose money to support their blockchain of choice.
Which to me seems like an unstable equilibrium.
01:05
In any moment, one of them is more profitable to mine.
So 100% of miners would only be mining the more profitable one, unless some are altruists.

that is totaly wrong.

both chains are healty and stable

thes is no switchover because one is more profitable

That is a fair reason to declear war against them
Z

For example, let's say that bcash is 5% less profitable to mine.
That means I could get 1 bcash by mining bcash. Or I could get 1.05 bcash by mining bitcoin, and selling the bitcoin for bcash.
01:08
Any self-interested miner would only mine the profitable chain.

Farmers farm land is like mining farms. Switching from 🌽 to 🍚 might be more profitable, but if everyone switches it's not the right decision. And sometimes people lose because prices change before they can get their product to market. Same applies with mining.
Z

In reply to this message
Farmland is not like blockchains.

Some parts of the planet are suited for different crops.
And there is a significant delay between planting and harvest.


A miner who is paid by a pool can sell their tokens simultaneously as they are being mined.
The pool can pay in a different currency than the one being mined.
It takes no time to get to market.

And miners can instantly switch what they are mining. There is no 3-month delay till harvest.

Farmers can use a futures market to sell their crop before they plant it. So this doesn't really apply for farmers either.

Hey everyone, recently started mining with my 4x 1070ti rig. Using veominer 1.0 I am getting 1.86 GH/s, does that sound right? I am using the default settings. Love the concept of Amoveo and definitely pumped for the future of it!
IP

In reply to this message
yep it is fine
OK
01:47

You can do better than default settings for sure, and you'll want to get 1.2... I believe it's improved over 1.0
02:06

Okay. I will try that out. I saw above that 128 168 works well for 1070ti so I’ll test with that.
OK
02:19
O K
If I do a spend with the light wallet, and it doesn't show up in the reciptient's wallet or come out of my wallet after a block, then it's safe to do again?
02:20
(after updating headers ofc)
Z
02:22
Zack
In reply to this message
It is safe to publish the same tx twice.
Making a new tx is dangerous.
Did you check if it is in the mempool of the node that generated it?
OK
02:29
O K
I see, looking at the console I think there was a space at the end of the recipient's address, but I didn't catch it because I copied and pasted the address into the wallet and explorer side by side, and the explorer will still work with a space at the end
02:32
Maybe when the console throws the error, it would be helpful to display on the page that the address is invalid, and not delete the amount. The amount deleted, which in the markets means the transaction was successful, but for spending, it does not.
Z
02:33
Zack
It deletes the amount so if you accidentally double-click, it doesn't spend money twice.
02:34
An error message is a good idea
OK
02:34
O K
In the event of success ☑️ but if it fails, deleting the amount doesn't protect

I was not planning on making a name coin type registry on chain.
It is possible to put an address book into your light wallet, but I doubt anyone wants it at this point.

"Sending Veo by email" I don't understand what this could mean.
Z
02:49
Zack
Oh, byte ball has you email the private key.
that is a bad idea. I don't want to write something like that.

well while i see a problem with that it is an easy way to get a lot of people involved into using
Z
02:50
Zack
It is easy to do with the current light node.
Use a brain wallet to make an address. Then send Veo to the address. Then email the brain wallet to your friend.

I recommend not doing this. You will likely get robbed.

Key difference though - the sent wallet is only spendable once, and the client automatically sweeps it to ensure end user doesn’t use it as actual wallet

In reply to this message
Security by obscurity is not real security.
I recommend never sending a private key to someone.
It is better to make a tx to spend the veo to them.

Yes, “them” (email address) that is an alias for a public key
