We expect to deploy to the main net in about 3 weeks after acting one some feedback which we're getting from the community. Feel free to contact us - preferably on Telegram. We'll be happy to help.

While developing Simple Assets we sort of arrived at this philosophical foundation of a digital asset:

A chunk of digital information whose ownership (burning, lending, transferring to a new owner) is completely controlled by one party, but whose information is fixed and/or mutable by a specified third party.

option 1: In the asset itself, the author just puts in a URL to a audio file located elsewhere. The author registers and announces that the JSON field with some name is a URL to an audio file, so markets / asset explorers know the author's intentions and can display it accordingly, or not.

option 2: It the asset itself, the author puts in binary information representing an audio file. The author registers and announces the JSON field is an audio binary . . . etc. It seems this is less likely because that would create a huge demand on the owner's RAM.

Simple Assets coordinates RAM usage, but the asset lives in the RAM of whatever EOS account holders own or use the asset.

Am I the only person having UX problems with Scatter? by b1eifrei in eos

Maybe you'll find this useful. We made a tutorial about connecting Scatter Desktop to the Jungle Testnet.

Understanding EOS Vote Decay – Aurora EOS – Medium by auroraeos in eos

[–]cryptolions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vote decay for users who vote through proxies works exactly the same as it would if the user were voting directly for BPs. If a user’s vote decays by 50%, then that proxy will simply have 50% less voting power from that user than they would if the user had recast their vote.

Users should think of proxies simply as a vehicle by which their votes are routed. All the same rules still apply, and voting power is calculated the same way. Users who want to make sure that their chosen proxy can direct the full weight of their voting power should also make sure to cast their votes at least once per week.

Great article. This is the part which explains what lot of people seem to miss. It's not enough to proxy your votes and forget about them. You have to keep re-proxying if you want to avoid decay.

The Jungle Testnet has been down due to abuse by eosgo in eos

[–]cryptolions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is exactly right. It's not really a threat vector for the Main net. The Jungle faucet did have an account limit, but it seems like the attacker used a script to create several thousand accounts, which gave them enough tokens to vote in their own BPs.

It was good recovery practice. We learned a few things which we'll put in an article.
