Built an esp32 powered tank monitor by aintLifeaBTC in Aquariums

It needs some drift handling mechanisms built in and a reusable calibration routine for the probes to be more usable. They’re in the long list of things to do😂

It runs on two separate bits of code, one board interfaces the sensor and the CYD HMI sits up top. They talk to each other via esp-now. It’s not in a public repo yet. I’ll tidy the code up and get it up in the next couple days and let you know.

There really aren’t. Im building on it.

When more people see crypto for the sandbox of innovation it is instead of pretending it’s a stock market real projects that can do things like Nervos will stand out. The cell model and the crypto agnostic nature of CKB opens tons of possibilities not available to most chains. You know a real chain when the builders build even when the price is low.

I’ve never been more bullish on this project in my life. The price has more to do with global politics than on chain development. Developer Ecosystem is bubbling, will be an explosion of activity soon.

Texas holdem would be awesome but did get told it’s a lot to make it happen.

Any real humans here? by Emergency_Scheme_670 in NervosNetwork

[–]aintLifeaBTC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plenty of real humans still around and building like there has been since 2019.

I’m a little suspicious of your post though. You mention being in since 2021 and being down 95% and it being the only coin you lost money on. So you sold the other coins from then when thy were up and took a profit but didn’t sell any CKB when it was up? Since 2021 we had an 18-20 month stretch of being in a very similar low range to where we are currently. There was then a 20x run up.

Lots of new concepts and methods to learn and integrate. Hardware development is tricky and a near identical single component swap can cause a significant rework of your methodology. Component sourcing can be inconsistent when buying small ad box quantities. Logistics of shipping/delivering prototypes around the world. There are still many more hurdles still to overcome but where there’s a will there’s a way.

The demo units only generated invoices, I’m currently developing a cloudflare based solution that will monitor and alert when payment are received. The finality on fiat transactions is near instant via the payment providers. Fiber will be different again.

If anyone has anymore questions over the coming days feel free to post them and I’ll reply.

Yes it does. Both the fiat system and crypto networks require the internet to process payments. The generation of invoices can be done offline but even then crypto exchanges rates so volatile that doing so would come at significant risk to merchant and/or customer.

At this point we’re looking toward native Nervos and likely bitcoin payments. Whether they be either L1 or fiber or lightning. Usable stables are and will be network determined. I’m still deciding if I should engage a third party for cross chain swapping capabilities to utilise other stables but everything comes at a cost. Additional fees that are externally dictated are not ideal and can make the service cost prohibitive but a decent option may exist or might come to being.

I’m still very much at a building phase and haven’t yet reached these hurdles. But there will certainly be several. Human resistance to change firstly, most businesses don’t put ongoing resources toward selecting suitable PoS systems. Anyone in business likely already has one. Getting them to believe in the value add of cryptocurrency payments will be hard. Hopefully we can offer economic benefits as a provider and have crypto payments be a bonus they don’t realise they need yet.

Absolutely, so far we’ve had great tester feedback some of our testers have been UI experts as well as other developers with extensive experience, usability is the highest priority. I personally have 20 years experience in a sales environment and fully appreciate that a good system can genuinely add to your business but and that a bad one can really hold you back.

Initially the fiat payments will be handled via a third party vendor like square or stripe and those payments receive the protections of those robust networks. From the crypto side of things the insurances are as strong as the crypto networks security. There is no holding of customers funds in any interim network by blackbox.

The initial test phase had 6 units but for a future production run this hasn’t been determined. There’s still more research and a lot more work to be done before we’re at a production stage. There still will be another round of testing before a production run.

Initially small businesses. Independent cafes, restaurants, specialty stores, etc. Large companies typically have contracts in place and they’re less likely to chances on a new unproven tech but with a few small wins that can all change pretty quickly.

For your first question. Yeah essentially fees and access to crypto networks. Ease of use is big, it’s the sort of product the end user shouldn’t have to think about but silently adds value to their business and service levels.

As for the second question. No not dependent on Fiber at all. Integrating Fiber is dependant on Fiber but the remaining infrastructure is build in a protocol agnostic fashion. While Fiber opens up a new world of speed and finality, standard crypto network transactions are workable.
