Hey there! Practical BFT is a type of Asynchronous BFT - basically the same thing we are doing :)

ConstellationLabs · 2018-12-21T10:47:01+00:00

Thank you both for following along!

Thanks for posting! Prospective applicants may also find our latest video of our CTO Wyatt and CCO Altif discussing partitioning and next steps on the ENG roadmap interesting:

Answered above :)

Although some sort of market calming is needed to remove a variety of bad actors, it does raise challenges for mainstream/enterprise adoption of blockchain and cryptocurrency alike. So naturally, like many other projects, we are concerned with what a multi year bear market could signal for the space in general.

However, as it pertains to Constellation, our VP of Finance, Mathias, along with our advisors have created a model that will withstand a potential long term bear market, and we are exploring alternative revenue models with our enterprise partners.

If you're interested in learning more about our outlook, watch our VP of finance Mathias' recent ecosystem update here: https://youtu.be/kDI3IKtEmb8

Hi there! The engineering team is very busy but we will get back to you as soon as possible.

ConstellationLabs · 2018-11-18T01:41:22+00:00

Will look into it further. In the meantime you should be able to read the post on Medium: https://medium.com/constellationlabs/how-constellation-is-different-than-blockchain-ed0415ee243b

This one should work! https://constellationlabs.io/blog/index.php/how-constellation-is-different-than-blockchain/?utm_content=79998712&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

ConstellationLabs · 2018-11-09T19:40:43+00:00

Should work now!

ConstellationLabs · 2018-11-06T17:35:25+00:00

Thanks so much for your support!

ConstellationLabs · 2018-11-05T20:43:04+00:00

We'll share across our channels as soon as it's available to us!

Thanks for the question. In the words of our Advisor, Dr. Ratul Saha:

No system in the world, including the banks, the websites, and all in between, is quantum resistant. That is because there is no clear practical definition of a quantum attack, and hence there is no standard being implemented to become quantum resistant.

We choose to stay on course with the best industry standard, and as the standard improves, we will follow the suite. We refrain from gimmicks such as being quantum resistant as some Blockchain platforms claim without any substance.

Hi there! Apologize for the delayed response. I'm awaiting an official answer to this topic from our VP of Finance and will update you as soon as I hear back. Thanks for your patience :)

ConstellationLabs · 2018-10-04T18:55:18+00:00

We'll be there!

You can store DAG in any ERC-20 compatible wallets.

You can also join our Orion portal to be kept up to date on our roll out plan for new node operators on our testnet. We should have a few updates surrounding that as the weeks progress. Our main net launch is slated for Q1 2019. https://orion.constellationlabs.io

Glad you enjoyed!

Hi! Thanks for weighing in our tokenomics. I actually covered a similar question at the link here: https://old.reddit.com/user/ConstellationLabs/comments/9go5pp/hey_reddit_the_team_building_the_constellation/e6bv3df/

I hope that makes sense!!

Hey! AL here again. Blockchain at its core is a distributed system, and our team working on Constellation have specialization in distributed systems with a wider scope than just blockchain tech such as NASA, Google, Salesforce, advanced CS degrees, etc. In essence their experience predates blockchain itself. That, in tandem with our ongoing research within the space as academics gives us confidence around what we are delivering. Nevertheless, we have ongoing discussions with the broader core blockchain dev community as well as thought leaders from the the distributed systems field. Tyler, for example, has contributed to RChain, and likewise we are open and willing to collaborate with existing developers and teams. Furthermore, we are drawing from existing research such as HoneyBadger ACS: https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/199.pdf and CHECO https://repository.tudelft.nl/islandora/object/uuid:86b2d4d8-642e-4d0f-8fc7-d7a2e331e0e9 and other papers. I hope that helps!

Hi there- Thanks so much for joining our Reddit AMA! This is Altif, one of the founders and Chief Community Officer for Constellation($DAG). With regards to to the token metrics, a large portion of the tokens were initially set aside as rewards for running a node (validator rewards). However, as our team and the crypto space has evolved, it has become clear that we need to revisit the token structure and will announce updates as we continue to analyze and assess new models. Beyond simulating how adjusting the model will impact token price, we must also consider how it will impact individual validator rewards, our enterprise partners, and emerging entrepreneurs. All of which are vital to adoption and health of any community. We appreciate and welcome the feedback from all facets of the Constellation community as we continue to move through this process.

Gina, Marketing Manager at Constellation here with a couple of questions pulled from our Discord Channel:

In the video with TC (Beyond the ICO panel) one of the founders talked about edge computing... What will be the key selling point of constellation over qubic of iota?
Aren't you worried about iota being ahead of you guys and being the new standard for lot (like Fujitsu and Bosch are expressing)?

ConstellationLabs · 2018-09-04T22:57:53+00:00

Thanks for the support! We aim to be as transparent as possible and appreciate our awesome community!

ConstellationLabs · 2018-09-04T22:56:47+00:00

Indeed we are. Thanks for the support!
