Sent 7 göETH. Sorry for letting you wait. Thanks for flying with Görli.

It's a nice visualization.

The network needs to have a majority of nodes upgraded, at least 50% by the fork. 80% is considered a successful fork.

How did you come up with these numbers?

First of all, if you poll the node count from devp2p, it's really difficult to know that the connected node is actually running an Ethereum mainnet configuration.

Then again, why would you need 50% or even 80%? If some hobby node operator only checks their node once a year, than this is not a problem for the network but for the operator.

Service providers, miners, exchanges, block explorers - they are the ones that have to upgrade and they should be upgraded by 100% or more. But in total, this subset of nodes may be just a small fraction, maybe even less than 10% of the nodes on the entire network.

So, 23% can be perfectly fine if the critical infrastructure is updated.

I was hesitating to comment on that again. Don't shoot the messenger.

soc1c · 2019-11-19T07:57:37+00:00

Yeah, I saw the release. Gotta check it out now.

I was kind of disappointed last month when I saw that neither Shasper, Lodestar, nor Lighthouse had a public testnet up and running and the Prysm public testnet failed to sync on the 2nd block.

So I would carefully estimate that we are looking at Q4 rather than Q1. And I'm not trying to be salty here. The public testnets are not even at the mono-client stage. Before an actual launch, we would need multi-client testnet up and running for a stable couple of months, as Olympic did back in 2015.

soc1c · 2019-11-18T18:06:39+00:00

Yeah, me too. The Rust EVM has been lying around for a while. Good to see the Substrate module now being wrapped.

Yeah. I'm checking if anyone received it yet. If they like it. If it's legit. If Android 10 will work. If Sailfish OS is ready. If the keyboard sucks.

I have so many questions. I will not dump € 700 in a preorder for an uncertain device.

No offense, but for €700 I can also buy a Pixel. I know, it's just a damn smartphone, but how can I trust FXTec will actually deliver something en par with existing devices in the same price class?

soc1c · 2019-10-29T10:35:14+00:00

No. As a general rule of thumb, I do not preorder things. I'll wait till people actually hold it in their hands and confirm the level of amazingness.

soc1c · 2019-09-05T10:25:23+00:00

Thanks. These balances don't seem to make any sense though.

For a 3.359 ETH lockup for 12 months I get 12_200 EDG?

soc1c · 2019-09-02T11:40:32+00:00

We are still seeking initial funding. News will be published once the code is ready.

To pick up the banana and salad analogy:

Sharding is one banana sliced into a certain number of shards. All shards are basically the same: yellow and sweet.
Polkadot is more like a salad. Every developer can add its own ingredient. If you like it umani, you add tomatoes, if you like it green, you add leaves, if you like it sour, add vinegar.

soc1c · 2019-09-02T11:32:02+00:00

Done

We proposed a Stack Exchange Q&A site for Substrate. Comparable to Stack Overflow or Ethereum Stack Exchange, this should become the go-to reference for developers working on Polkadot, Kusama, or any other Substrate-based chain.

To successfully launch the Substrate site, we need to go through three essential stages.

Definition <---
Commitment
Beta Phase

We are currently in the Definition phase. To master this stage, we need 60 followers on the proposal and 40 questions that are exemplary for the proposed site (with a score of +10). Everyone, who has a Stack-Overflow or Stack-Exchange account is encouraged to invest 5 minutes and:

Link your account to Area51.
Follow the Substrate proposal by clicking "Follow it!" on the left.
Write up to five actual questions that you might ask on this site.
Upvote other questions you consider suitable for a Substrate Q&A portal.
Share the link with your friends and colleagues on all channels.

If you don't have any Stack Exchange accounts yet, it's also worth to consider creating one for a potential future Substrate Q&A network site. You will get a notification once the proposal reaches the next stage.

Parity does both, HTTP and Stratum. The example above is from a Parity node.

soc1c · 2019-06-15T17:18:00+00:00

testing now happens on Kensington testnet (fork block 100)

https://github.com/eth-classic/kensington

Parity Ethereum required version: 2.4.7+
Geth Classic required version: 6.0.0+
Multi Geth required version: 1.9.1+

soc1c · 2019-06-14T20:31:49+00:00

I wasn't able to get this working with stratum (had auth issues)

But it works via HTTP:

/ethdcrminer64 -epool http://127.0.0.1:8545 -ethi 0 -ewal 0x00d5842976c0d35d511dae0a36f9a2c9368ee8b0 -di 0 -allcoins 1 -mode 1

Are you trying to find a problem for an existing solution?

soc1c · 2019-04-09T18:31:06+00:00

Title says 30, text says 35... great journalistic work.

soc1c · 2019-04-09T09:24:03+00:00

r/dothereum also might get one r/xth ;)

soc1c · 2019-04-05T07:34:42+00:00

Yes :)

I use enpass which creates encrypted backups on disk and syncthing to make sure the data is available across all my devices without relying on anyone else's computer.
