you can make the fee higher in the config file, then people will have to pay more to put txs in your blocks
08:03
if you make the fee higher in the config file, then your mining pool will censor any tx with a lower fee

a normal multi tx send by the node costs almost the same as single spends
08:04
08:05
so unless you do a raw transaction and overwrite values, its not cheaper, so stop saying that
08:05
08:06
and nobody here wants to edit node stuff, like OK said, we are happy when they are running
08:06
had to resync my main node today for no reason, just stopped working
08:07
but fun fact to, i can use make prod-restart on my backup node again and it attaches now, no idea why
08:07
looks like running it once in screen fixed it
OK

In reply to this message
I think it works after one of the workaround style
Z
08:08
Zack
How are you calculating those amounts? I am looking at the block, but I don't see those numbers
S
08:09
Sy
the tx got one fee
08:09
you divide it by its entries
Z
08:09
Zack
oh, I see it now, thanks
S
08:10
Sy

08:12

currently the default mining fee for a tx is 9 satoshis.
And by default the full node pays 1000 satoshis to the mining pool per tx.
08:12
I can lower the default fee paid to 10 satoshis
S
08:12
Sy
obviously not when every tx costs over 60k
08:12
according to those numbers it would be 1k
Z
08:13
Zack
the burn fee is set by the governance mechanism. That money is burned, it does not get paid to the miners.
S
08:13
Sy
it doesnt matter what happens to it
08:13
you said multi tx are cheaper, they arent
Z
08:13
Zack
for create_account the burn fee is a lot higher than for spend
08:14
txs made from the light node are cheaper, because they aren't paying 1000 satoshis like full nodes do by default.
S
08:14
Sy
multi_tx should have a higher intial fee and then very low fee for every entry
08:14
1000 satoshis are hardly an issue for a tx that costs 65k
Z
08:15
Zack
multi-tx takes less bytes in the block than multiple normal txs, but they take the same amount of time to process and they take up the same amount of consensus state.
So it seems like they should cost the same amount for the burn fee, but multi-tx should be less expensive for mining fee.
S
08:16
Sy
the mining fee is a joke to begin with
Z
08:16
Zack
you can set it to be higher if you want. you control most of the hashpower, so it is basically your choice.
S
08:16
Sy
so end of story, they arent cheaper veo wise
08:17
we have burned 65 veo so far in fees
Z
08:17
Zack
im lowering the default from 1000 satoshis to 10 satoshis
S
08:17
Sy
probably less i think i count the 1000 aswell, 60637 txs total
Z
08:17
Zack
so your mining pool will make even less profit
S
08:17
Sy
dude
OK
08:17
O K
🔥
08:18
🤣
Z
08:18
Zack
but this way the multi-tx wont be more expensive
S
08:18
Sy
if you really think ANY pool makes it profit out of shitty 1k satoshis you are SO mistaken... 😂
08:18
is that even 1ct?
Z
08:18
Zack
why don't you raise the tx fee?
S
08:18
Sy
this is not btc where tx fees are actually worth something
08:19
why should i?
08:19
but nice derailing of the topic
08:19
im off to bed
Z
08:20
Zack
then people would have an incentive to use multi-tx, so blocks would be smaller, and we could sync faster
S
08:20
Sy
"people" usually only do single spends, only pools do multiple in one block so nope, wrong again
Z
08:20
Zack
yeah, the pools would group payments, this would make blocks smaller
08:21
exchanges too
OK
08:21
O K
Adding a separate tx fee? sure
S
08:21
Sy
how much smaller?
Z
08:21
Zack
the tx fee is already there, it is set to 9 satoshis by default

when you do a multi-tx, you save 65 bytes for each spend because you don't have to re-write your pubkey.
and you save like 100 bytes for each because you only do one signature.
OK
08:22
O K
I think it sounds nice having a smaller fee format for multitx, seems like since it costs less, it should cost less
Z
08:22
Zack
it makes the tx less than 1/2 as big I think
S
08:22
Sy
this is only relevant info if you tell us the total bytes of a tx aswell
08:23
65 and 100 bytes of like 10000 bytes are irrelevant, out of 1000 is more interesting
Z
08:24
Zack
If we zip the blocks before sending them, I bet the compression algorithm would be almost as efficient as switching to multi-tx.
S
08:24
Sy
since its all text, it would be much more efficient
Z
08:24

since it would find all the identical pubkeys

Here is a multi-spend:

148,2,129,12>>,
10503537,0},

multi-spend is about 65 bytes.
spend is about 225 bytes. so it is something between 1/3rd and 1/4th as big.

N multi-spends is about (225 + 65*N) bytes
vs N spends is about (225 * N) bytes
OK
08:29
O K
Great, so make the burn fee (normal fee)+(1/3 * normal fee ea tx)
08:30
I'd use it then
Z
08:30
Zack
the burn fee covers the cost of time for processing the tx, and for consensus state space.
These costs are the same for multi-spend and regular spend. so the burn needs to be the same for both.
08:31
mining fee covers the cost of the bytes in a block, so the mining fee should be different for each.
OK
08:31
O K
Cool, I'll just stick with regular spend that works most of the time rather than trying something new and risky then

we are averaging at about 2 tx per block.
So we have more than 300x the capacity as we are using.
08:35
lowering this capacity would also make us more secure from spam attacks.
OK
08:35
O K
Nice, sounds like lowering it won't do anything at all
08:35
Since we have so much
Z
08:36
Zack
currently you need 1/2 gigabyte of hard drive to store all the blocks, but our capacity allows us to grow by about 144 megabytes a day
08:36
we could grow by 1 gigabyte per week if someone wanted to spam us.
OK
08:37
O K
Yeah don't worry, if transactions become expensive, I'll raise the fee
08:37
For the time being, I don't need to shoot myself in the foot

The question is, what is more important? Block size or processing time, i understand zacks reasoning but it doesnt encourage to use multi tx at all

Aeternity doesn't say anything about futarchy governance on their website or white paper.
But when they hire 3rd party advertisers, they frequently talk about "futarchy", betting style governance.
This seems like a scam so that they can trick investors into thinking futarchy is a goal.

It is also a scam how they use the word "oracle" to describe their trusted feeds.
You can do trusted feeds on bitcoin using 2 of 3 multisigs. It is a kind of escrow mechanism which is already in use on websites like bit rated.
Using the word "oracle" to describe this kind of mechanism is dishonest.

Ae raised tens of millions of dollars by promising to build the futarchy blockchain I designed, but it was a bait and switch to scam the investors.

If we just show the investors what is happening, they will want to switch to amoveo. Because amoveo is the futarchy blockchain that they originally invested in.

I dont think Æ is a scam, their dev team is solid and they are making progress in github. Most people would accept a «trusted third party» to do the task of an oracle. Even though it is not safe, it might be good enough. I also didnt like their «pivot» into an ETH like coin, and in that sense I believe it is reasonable to say they fooled their investors. Still, Æ is far from dead imho

I gave 2 solid reasons that I feel aeternity is being a scam lately. 1) they falsely advertise as if they enable futarchy style governance, but in reality they only develop voting style governance.
2) they falsely advertise as if they enable an Oracle, but in reality they only have trusted feeds, which is basically identical to escrow in bitcoin with 2 of 3 multisigs like bit rated.

I bring this up because I think that any communication between people in these projects will being more users to amoveo. I want to share with you the tools you need to easily convert users.

yes. you can bribe people to vote for you to become dictator of Tezos for example.

you could even do a P+epsilon type bribe attack, so you could become dictator without having to pay any bribes.

My 2c: there is for example MakerDAO and Dharma protocol - both allow you to take collaterised loans (but Maker accept only ETH as collateral) - so they both work in theory but in practice Maker has $15M monthly volume and Dharma only $3k
22:11
conclusion: making stuff very easy to use and highlighting one major use case can increase volume of protocol usage

debt on a blockchain does not work in theory or practice.
There is no cryptoeconomic way to punish someone for failing to pay their debt.

securitized debt works, like in MakerDAO
Z
22:41
Zack
I have no idea what that is.
I do know that debt on the blockchain is not enforceable.
Some people try to use reputation, but non-spendible reputation has bad side effects.
It make retirement attacks profitable.
AK
22:42
A K
sry, should have said "collateralized"
22:42
you lock ETH in a smart contract and receive 25-30% value in Dai
22:42
(which should follow USD)
22:43
if ETH/USD declines, you get margin called and loose ETH
Z
22:43
Zack
For a contract to be enforceable, all the money at stake needs to be locked inside the contract.
This basic limitation of smart contracts makes them useless for debt.
AK
22:44
A K
it is locked yep
22:44
but if you're saying keeping an ETH as investment for 10 years, Dai allows you to get %% of ETH value as debt
22:44
on a blockchain )
Z
22:46
Zack
Financial derivatives are the optimal way to trade risk.
AK
22:46
A K
but you're not trading risk, you're still fully exposed to ETH price.
22:46
and you're also getting some Dai which you can trade for smth, goods services crypto
Z
22:46
Zack
If you want to get more or less eth exposure, you should use some leveraged financial derivative.
Anything else will be less efficient, it will cost more and pay you less.
AK
22:47
A K
you're keeping 100% ETH exposure
22:47
at all times
22:47
you use ETH as a collateral against Dai
22:47
Dai ~= USD basically
Z
22:49
Zack
If one person is buying a stable-coin in ethereum, then someone else must be buying their ether-risk.
Trading risk is most efficient with a market for financial derivatives.
Trying to re-invent financial derivatives by inserting a mini-ico inside every market is a terrible idea.
I understand people are crazy for icos today, but that is no excuse to build something that is so much less efficient than existing alternatives.
AK
22:50
A K
yep, but ETH risk is well overcollateralized
22:50
practically 3x-4x
22:50
so unles ETH jumps to 25-50 USD, no risk
22:50
it will be liquidated before default
Z
22:50
Zack
The total amount of eth risk is always conserved. you can't destroy risk, you can only sell it to someone else.
AK
22:51
A K
You're keeping ETH risk when you put it as collateral
22:51
it's like a mortgage in a bank
22:51
you keep the house price risk, yet the bank also cares about the prices
Z
22:52
Zack
a mortgage is a type of financial derivative which is secured by real estate.
I agree, maker-dao is trying to create an alternative for financial derivatives.
RL
22:54

Is VEO being traded anywhere?

A normal market for financial derivatives, where trades are matched in single-price batches. That would be the optimal way to trade risk.

i’d have to agree with zack that debt on the blockchain could never work

Dai works already or you mean it has drawbacks or you don’t consider it debt?
MF
00:51
Mr Flintstone
I don’t think the maker system is debt based
00:52
I would consider any system with credit risk not suitable for blockchains which I think is what zack means by debt is not enforceable
SS
00:57
Spike Spiegel
You sound like Stallman - makerdao has large volumes and soon it will be in top 20 projects - and dai is 100% legit
00:58
And yes - dai requires some other token to maintain the value in some range - makerdao system may even work with ethereum price falling (slowly)
00:59
If you have over 150% collateral the created dai is legit
Z
01:00
Zack
different people want to have different margins on their financial derivative contracts.
It depends on how long they plan to hold the contract for, for example.
SS
01:04
Spike Spiegel
It's not practical to replace all instruments by derivatives
Z
01:05
Zack
When it comes to trading risk, derivatives are the best tool available.
SS
01:08
Spike Spiegel
Yes - you can create different financial products but if they aren't selling on the market (low trade volume) it means that market decided to use different things
01:10
For example one can believe that centralised prediction markets may work - due to high liquidity and low fees.

Decentralised networks require large amount of capital to bootstrap liquidity so it's more profitable to use X than Y
MF
01:16
Mr Flintstone
the maker system for dai is one big derivative
AK
01:21
A K
In reply to this message
well by issuing Dai you’re promising to exchange it to ETH at the ETH/USD rate so I’d say it’s an IOU / debt
MF

Mr Flintstone
there is no promise

yes, it's derivative - I mean it's cool to say that something is better than other thing but I would be rather focused on increasing the total volume locked in contracts

Debt isn't collateralized.

So mortgage isn't debt?

A blockchain can't enforce a mortgage because a blockchain can't control real estate.

blockchains cannot enforce exogenous property rights if you want to sound smart
MF
01:45
Mr Flintstone
blockchains cannot enforce credit agreements
01:45
this is simple
01:46
Or more simple I guess
SS
01:48
Spike Spiegel
nope, since you can have credit on-blockchain (enforcement of repayment of asset X by asset Y )
01:49
This discussion evaporates after properly defining debt / derivative
MF
02:15
Mr Flintstone
the only way to enforce repayment of asset x with asset y is to control asset y the entire time. so it is a fully funded debt position which is kind of pointless. if y is not controlled the entire time, there is performance risk of the debt, which is credit. the blockchain cannot enforce that which it does not control
02:17
I think this is all just semantic disagreement
02:18
I think we all get the point that the blockchain cannot control assets that are not pledged to be controlled by it
03:34

Actually if x% lenders are paying back on average, someone could cover those costs for a fee, like an insurance. But this could only work if a loan was tied to real identities. Any anonymous lenders would mostly not repay

If you used a brain wallet to generate your amoveo address, then you need to make a new non-brain wallet address and move all your funds.
The brain wallet algorithm has a bug, and will be replaced soon, so all the old brain wallet addresses will stop working.

The amoveo community has been coming to some different conclusions on this topic.
Some of us have been encouraging subjective questions, because any overly-specific question can be cheated.
If we depend on some specific website or person, they can be bribed.
If we ask the oracle in a vague way, then the community can discuss in the forums. We will realize if some source is inaccurate.

Discussions in forums are where consensus really happens.
The oracle is just a mechanism to encourage consensus.

I wonder if this means augur's original plan wasn't so good, and subjectivity needs to be embraced.

There is clearly going to be a gray area for many questions where the truth is not straightforward to resolve. Seems like there will be risk of losing money if you are betting on these oracles.

If the temperature peaks at 20.1 degrees at one place, and perhaps 19.9 degrees nearby, what is the truth? The question itself is not bad, its just difficult to resolve the answer
15:53
Should this question just be left alone by users, or will it escalate into a fork?
15:56
I think perhaps in marginal cases we have to accept that two answers could be a valid truth, and better for users to not place bets in oracles unless the truth is clear. This is just a limitation of having to convert a fuzzy value into binary form

I guess its just a matter of residual risk that will always be present. Eg even a football match might not be finished with a valid result if the match is stopped before ending. One could not expect an oracle question wording to cover all such eventualities
Z

It is exciting to see such a strong disagreement about this in Augur. I hope we get to see the ultimate form of their oracle, where it forks the rep, so everyone has 2 kinds of rep.
00:33

Then you would risk losing a bet even if you could interpret the situation as not loosing. If the oracle wording is sufficiently clear though, this will not happen very often

How does Augur fork? Is this codified in a contract? I would assume ETH will not fork for Augur...

just the rep subcurrency forks. So afterwards there would be 2 altcoins on Ethereum, each working as rep for different oracles on ethereum.

there are 3 possible answers: y, n, wrong question

Deleted Account
if a person does not want to answer (for example, because do not want to make bets), they will be simply ignored
08:07
but what about those who chose "wrong question"?
08:09
if maximal finances were bet for "wrong question" - their opinion will win?
08:10
and all other participant money (those who said yes or no) - will be given to those who bet for "wrong quesion"?
08:13
the second question (seems obvious but i want to clarify) is next: if someone want to answer question (ie to participate in oracle mechanism) but do not want to risk money - he will be ignored too?
08:14
sorry for english mistakes in these messages, now i'm editing some of them
08:17
the third question: how many Amoveo users are typically participate in oracle mechanism making bets? I'm giess that maybe just several percents or less?
08:21
>A simple way to do the oracle is like this: Every time a decision resolves, the blockchain forks. One side decides that the decision's outcome is "true", the other decides "false". Users know the truth. They prefer the chain that is more honest
08:23
- but what if most bets were for "whong question"?
08:28
The question is “did Amoveo mainnet survive for a month since the Amoveo mainnet genesis block’s timestamp?” We know that the answer to this question is true. Say I bet 10 VEO on true and you bet 5 VEO on false. Now, 5 has matched for both of us at 1:1 odds, and there is 5 unmatched remaining of the type true. The 5 unmatched of type true determines that the oracle now has output type true. If the output type doesn’t change for a certain number of blocks, the oracle is finalized in this state. Next, because the final state was true and I bet on true, I win my matched bet worth 10 and get the 5 that was unmatched back for a total of 15. You lose your matched bet
08:30
if I understand correctly if someone bets 5 VEO for "wrong question", his money will be geven to "me", too
08:32
> If the output type doesn’t change for a certain number of blocks, the oracle is finalized in this state

how much blocks (or time)? how to change it?

ок, now just one. there are 3 possible answers on question oracle. and what about goverment oracle? is there option "wrong question", or only "true"-"false"?
Z
11:44
Zack
they both have the same 3.
"bad-question" for a governance oracle means that the governance variable does not change.
11:49

thanx
11:52
and what will happen of "true" gets 10 VEO, "false" 8 VEO and "bad question" 7 VEO? Maximal bets are for "true", but both "false" and "bad question" are in fact against changes and have 7+8 VEO
Z
12:02

It depends on the order of the bets.
There is an order book.
Bets are matched at 50-50 odds.

>If the oracle is about to be closed the wrong way, then you can double your money by making a bet for it to close the right way

does this mean that anyone can see results before oracle closes?

Sorry for many questions (some of which I can search in White Paper or other places), but I hope that the result of my work will be very useful for those who need popular explanation of VEO and its really inelligent ideology. It will be translated in English too (not by me but by professional tranlators)

@victor_vl im not sure about you, but many people are confused about oracles vs markets. In a binary market you only have two options, who wins is resolved by the oracle. The oracle market is mostly not that interesting for regular users, and probably not where you would make much money

i'm interested in futarchy idea

14:54
I wrote these to clarify. Also Zacks docs contain a lot of info, but quite detailed and imho not always easy to understand for newcomers. I think articles for newcomers is a great idea, just make sure its accurate :)
14:55
Futarchy is based on prediction markets. The oracle is just a small piece of the puzzle
14:57
I think most users of markets do not need to know much about oracles other than that they are designed to reveal the truth in a cryptoeconomically safe way (in Amoveo at least, other platforms cant say the same)

for now it is displaying the hash of the function instead of the name of the function, and the functions are nameless.
Which makes it difficult to read.

I still dont understand the context these contracts run in though. Like how do the parties agree which code to run, how the pieces of code are initiated and how state is transferred between each time code is run (i think I would have to understand this before I could understand any contract code)
Z
23:39
Zack
It's channels. Like the lightning network in bitcoin.

A channel state needs both parties to sign for it to be valid.
It is similar to a 2 of 2 multisig address in bitcoin.
23:47

So I should find a document about lightning channels?

I think we should replicate some of this info in the Amoveo community. People coming here will not have all the background info that you have. At the very least link to relevant docs in other projects

A friend of mine told me a strategy for this.
The key is to remember that once you give them the money, they have no reason to keep you alive.
As long as you haven't given the money yet, there is still a chance that you will live.

Some people say it is best to have multiple wallets, and only give out the small one.
This is a bad strategy because once you have paid the small wallet, since they don't know about the big wallet, they have no reason to keep you alive.

I doubt you would learn much from the bitcoin lightning white paper.

That is like trying to learn addition by looking at the circuitry used to calculate addition on a chip.

channels on bitcoin are crazy complex because bitcoin wasn't designed for this.
So they do a bunch of complicated hacks
04:09

so when you say amoveo channels are like lightning network its not entirely accurate. because bitcoin doesnt have onchain code
04:11
In reply to this message
yes. bitcoin channels are only for payments. We have state channels which are programmable.
04:17
Deleted Account
Let me ask a simple question: When I open a channel, is all the contract code finalized and signed by both parties at that point, or may code be added as we go?
Z
04:18
Zack
when you open a channel, the channel state starts out practically empty.
It just says how much of the money in the channel will go to you, and the rest goes to the other person.
04:18
the smart contract is off-chain, it only gets published if there is a disagreement.
04:19
Deleted Account
then any party could submit a code to the channel that both sides must sign?
Z
04:19
Zack
I don't understand that question.
04:20
"submit a code to the channel"
I don't know what this could mean.
04:20
"any party could submit .... that both sides must sign"
That sounds impossible.
How could someone be required to sign something? doesn't that get rid of the purpose of a signature?
04:20
Deleted Account
Let me rephrase: after creating the channel, how could the server inject a «smart contract» into the empty channel?
Z
04:21
Zack
what server?

If you and I want to have a contract in our channel, then we both sign it and give the signatures to each other.
04:22
04:22
Deleted Account
so the code is shared, then signed by both parties.
04:23
Deleted Account
that makes it the most current state of the channel i guess
04:24
What I am looking for is really basic: how do the two parties agree on which code to sign?
Z
04:25
Zack
you could email it, or send it by a telegram PM
04:25
or program it into an API
04:25
you could write it on a sheet of paper, and discreetly give it to them in a handshake.
04:26
Deleted Account
hmmm. my brain hurts :)
Z
04:27
Zack
you could embed it into the insignificant bits of a photo of your cat, that way you can steganographically make a smart contract to circumvent censorship.
04:27
You could both go to a crypto-lawyer's office, and get their help in writing a contract that works well for both parties.
04:28
I expect the most popular way to agree on contracts will be from clicking on a button programmed in javascript, and the contract is all automatic in the background. embedded into an API.
04:29
your javascript wallet is programmed to only let you agree to contracts that do what you expect them to.

is there a merkle tree for the state of a channel, so you dont need to replay all code?
Z
04:30
Zack
Each function is identified by the hash of it's code.
So the functions are merkelized.
You only have to provide definitions of functions which get executed.
04:32
https://github.com/zack-bitcoin/chalang
Chalang is documented in this different repository
04:34
Deleted Account
and how could state be transferred to a second contract, if we both signed it? will the stack be preserved?
Z
04:35
Zack
we can do hashlocking to simultaneously update multiple smart contracts.

Updating a single smart contract is simpler. we just rewrite it and use a higher nonce.
04:35
Deleted Account
can i trigger just a function of a contract, or does it execute in one piece?
04:36
sorry for all the questions. i want to understand this
Z
04:36
Zack
I don't understand this question. Maybe review the transaction types again. Those are the only things you can do in Amoveo.
04:37
if you try to close a channel using an old version of history, then your partner will probably block you by publishing the most recent version.
You both would waste money on tx fees in that case.
04:38
In the majority of cases no code gets run on-chain.

Appreciate you guys vouching for us 👍

I guess executing transactions really fast since we've launched the exchange has put us in a difficult position now :D, we've set the expectation too high and now when the executions are delayed for even 10 minutes we get complaints :D. I can totally relate to the perspective of the trader though and I don't blame them, I'd wanna make sure my money is in good hands. If a transaction is delayed, we try to help and get it processed whenever you guys reach out to us.

We've identified what was causing the 15-35 min delays in executions (which happens ocassionaly) and will roll out a fix in a few days.

Also while I'm on a rant, we're currently in the works of a big refactor + markets + features on the platform. Hopefully you guys will like it 👍
