When to create gateways for all-based chains, including. Since then we’ve been keeping the set of nodes (witness, backup, and seed), as we prefer the “do first, talk about it later” approach. We did not put any special efforts to get to the top, and perhaps because of that were number 92 now, after acquiring experience with other and lengthy closed testing of and gateway for we’re proud to announce its public testing and are aiming at least to get closer to the top witnesses.
Ever since days the system intended that the community would vote for those who not just supports the required technical equipment, but also provides some additional solutions that are interesting to the community. We hope that a gateway with 0% trading fee for is such a solution from us
The results of operating our PPY gateway confirmed our theory about demand for alternate gateways to the DEX with architecture and features differing from those already present. Besides, PPY proved that assets can and should have high liquidity on Bitshares DEX. For example, right now ~99% of all PPY daily volume occurs on Bitshares DEX. The experience we’ve had with PPY gateway helped us move closer to our goal.
Now, after successful testing of gateways for a variety of Graphene chains we are ready to launch gateways for STEEM & SBD.
Trading STEEM/SBD on RuDEX has several advantages over trading them on centralized exchanges. Here are the main ones:
An ability to trade against completely decentralized assets (bitBTC, bitUSD, BTS, etc)
0% trading and
While the website is called Steemit the blockchain program is called steemd. When you blog on steemit.com, the website is actually pulling data from and pushing data to the blockchain through steemd. Steemit.com is basically a fairly convenient looking glass for what's written on the actual blocks, which is Steem. The program that powers steemit.com to look at the material on the blockchain is called condenser. All the witnesses are running servers that store the information written into the Blockchain and it's our witness servers that build what you write and do as new blocks on the blockchain.
A few weeks back several of the larger RPC nodes, which are used by developers to run programs off of Steemd (not just for reading/writing blogs) crashed on the same day, and the witnesses and community were alarmed, annoyed at the loss of various bots, programs, and tools, and lastly concerned about the future of the Blockchain. While the programs didn't cease to exist, many were temporarily disabled as they may not have been configured to go to backup nodes or re-establish connections after a loss, or the nodes they chose to re-establish connections to were also down. Anyway, a lot of community members voiced concerns on the block.
In part, the severity of the concern at the time was caused by the account who was writing about the immanent death of due to increasing RAM storage requirements that will eventually cause the program to shutdown. (also goes by the handles and they were joined by the additional account It's worth noting they were simultaneously promoting the It is fixed now.
Of course like with every software new issues might appear in the future but with such an awesome community and filled with skilled developers I'm sure they would be quickly addressed and fixed. That's how it works now (I've experienced it myself), but in a long term it would be even better.
If you are paying attention on what changes are being made to the platform infrastructure you might notice that there are up new features that will allow migration of the plugins functionality to services external to For powered service providers it would be a great improvement. It would not only let you use specialized data to deal with whatever functionality you need (graphs? it's come to my attention that I haven't written anything recently about my field of work. I think most people who follow me know from past post that I work in... let's just call it, "network security."
And with that, I try to generate some good karma for myself by lending helpful tips to you fine people about protecting yourself against a hacker's tomfoolery.
www.icomg.io is a third party website for participating in icos. We will have a listing for each upcoming ico, as well as an ether address to send funds to if you'd like to participate. Each ico we charge a 10% flat fee. That 10% is distributed in whole to I token holders the 1st day of each mo will hold a token sale for ICOMG tokens beginning September 29th. ICOMG tokens represent 100% of the gross profit of www.icomg.io. 100% of the fees collected from the site will be distributed in ether, on the first of each month beginning November 1st 2017. ICOMG tokens will be sold at the price of 300 for 1 ether, and there will be a hard cap of 30,000 ether. 10,000,000 ICOMG tokens will be created, 9,000,0000 of which will be available in the ICOMG token sale. The remaining 1,000,000 ICOMG tokens will be held by the team for site operation and costs, and at the end of the token sale the team will be left holding 10% of all circulating ICOMG tokens. If the token sale does not reach it's hard cap, the 1,0000,000 coins will be diluted down to 10% of the circulating supply with all others destroyed.
But I'm going to let you guys in on a dirty little secret... something that you might even take offense to. Ready?
