Bitshares - State of the Network - 11th July 2017

in bitshares •  7 years ago 


Welcome to the 43rd Bitshares State of the Network (BSotN) report. A weekly report focusing on the changes in the ecosystem and track longer term changes in a effort to identify emerging trends and changes in the Bitshares platform.

Bitshares - State of the Network - 11th July 2017

The Bitshares State of the Network Reports seeks to combine raw data from a wide range of metrics and combine them into meaningful information to identify emerging trends and changes in the Bitshares network.

This weeks report lacks some details due to Cryptofresh data being re-indexed after the Bitshares patch released the day prior to my data collection. I hope to have a full report as normal next week. Any affected data has been removed and to make up for it i have included a few more pictures and videos.

Observation from this week

This section will highlight any observations made while analysing the data.

  • @xeroc has announced the launch of the 'BitShares Blockchain Foundation'. The foundation is initially focused on providing 3 major services: Public Announcements, Public and Private mailing lists and BitUSD worker escrow management. You can see his announcement HERE or visit the foundations webpage at bitshares.foundation

As a result of this incident and patch was released and all full nodes need to update to the latest release. You can find more information about the incident and the upgrade patch HERE

This is a great effort from @cm-steem who is proving to be a huge asset to the Bitshares community and a prolific BSIP writer (4 so far). Please use the following links for more information related to BSIP-0021 Titled: "Introducing the 'Coin-Age' statistic to Bitshares assets" and BSIP-0022 "Titled Introducing expiring votes for Witnesses, Committie members & Proxies within the Bitshares network".

  • @lovejoy has released unseen footage of and interview with Dan Larimer. The footage was acquired during the 'Bitshares Peer To Peer Tour' which happened back in April 2015. You can see the following posts and view the 3 part series Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3.

  • @ash has released a guide to withdrawing your Open.Muse from Bitshares network to the Muse Blockchain. This process should be completed ASAP. This is required due to an upcoming Snapshot on the Muse network that will be used to as the basis for the genesis block for the new MUSE blockchain. You can see the guide HERE

Please see his post HERE as he walks through a couple of password managers to help community members retain access to their passwords and as a result Bitshares accounts

  • BikerCoin started as a CryptoNote coin on June 07 2016 and as of July 06 2017 migrated on top of the BitShares blockchain with the token 'BIKERCOIN'.

  • Peerity have launched their token 'PEERCROWDFUND' on the Bitshares network. According to their website their fundraiser starts in 84 days. They list Cosmos and Tendermint as their partners.

  • A new 3 Letter asset (Premium asset) has hit the market this week: 'XAS' registered by 'gw-union' who also registered CONSSIN which google translate suggests is related to an outdoor lighting and container door lock company. XAS has the following description: 'Asch is designed to make developers' life much easier: adopting JavaScript as development language, or supporting DBMS to store the transaction data, all of these approaches make DApp development like traditional web application, which must be extremely attractive to developers and SMEs. We believe the ecosystem of the whole platform will not be developed sustainably unless developers productivity could be promoted. Asch is also an open platform whose focus is not limited to a particular area, such as finance, document storage, or copywrite proof, but is on providing a series of underlying and abstract APIs, which can be combined and utilized to realize almost all kinds of applications. In addition Asch system utilized enhenced DPOS agorithm in its consensus mechanism to significantly reduce the probability of block fork and the risk of duplicate payment. Most importantly, Asch's sidechain-is-application mode can not only alleviate the blockchain inflation issue, but also make DApp more'

  • @virtualgrowth is doing a weekly market update and token give away; Check out his post and vote on your favorite asset HERE

  • This weeks Bitshares hangout recording has been published and is available HERE

  • Current registered wallets/accounts within the Bitshares network is 369317; an increase of 8011 wallets/accounts since last week

  • The last asset registered this week is asset #1498 and it is named 'AVERS' registered by 'aversis' with the description 'Settlement unit for Aversis software' googling leads me to aversis.net/ this seems like a good fit but may not be the actual projects website.

Thanks for the shout-out regarding the BSIPs that I've written. Looking forwards to any/all community input :)

No worries at all man. Thank you very much for all the efforts you put towards the network/community and the proposals!

I have upvoted you , please upvote me and resteem ...thanks

i used your link but got a failed to sync with API none admitance to the site

Thanks for using my link mate :)

If you are getting a time sync error your might need to adjust your clock if its out or you can select another api server. IIRC you are located in AU so the Hong Kong api server should be the best endpoint to use.

ok i will have a look and see if i can work it out --thanks for the hints

couldnt get it to connect to the hong kong api without the same error - not sure if i did it correctly -- am checking to see if there is a download to adjust computer time on windows 7

You can try other API servers but if you get the same error on a few of them it is most likely your clock.. (the clock on your phone should be accurate you might want to check it against your computer first before attempting to change the time - if you need to change the time you can do it manually you don't need to download anything, if you use windows you just right click on the time and select 'adjust date and time')

The other option is i jumped to conclusions and it is not the error i am thinking of. if your time looks fine maybe you can get a screenshot of the error?

the time is exactly the same on my phone to the second

Smartcoins Wallet is really a great application. Thanks for all its news on the Bitshare, this is one of the few project based on a blockchaine that currently works. Very promising.

I have upvoted and you , please upvote me and resteem ...thanks

I agree and the new interface looks amazing! Can't wait for it to be released..

The community and dev response to the chain halting was nothing short of amazing. Professional, organized, efficient and effective. Bitshares has the best team in the industry, hands down. Investments are ultimately about the people you are investing in and this week showed me that Bitshares is a fundamentally sound investment. Bitshares FTW!

Such good info.

Smart coin creation is DOWN? How can that be?

It can happen because more smartcoin have been 'settled' than issued/shorted W/W.

Settlement is when BTS collateral backing the smartcoin is released, after which the smart contract destroys the smartcoins which results in a lower supply.

I am very glad to see your post, this is amazing I also want to get a greeting like you It's really amazing, your postigan is very useful for others especially for me You have provided information that is very qualified in my opinion If you want to petrify me to follow me, My votes and want to share my post, I feel very happy and happy even though my post is not as good as your post Congratulations always for you and so on I am really amazed with your achievement and hard work in steemit

Thanks for the kind words :) glad you are getting value from the post. Bitshares really is an amazing platform as is Steem (both created by the same genius alongside a team of great devs ;)

Thanks for sharing

Cheers, thanks for reading :)

Nicee

A comprehansive efforts , plz keep sharing like a good stufd

Good one Fav. Nice to see the updates each week.

This isn't a cryptocoin because it has no Proof of Work system. PoS never has worked for fundamental economic reasons. No work = no value.

Then what are you doing here?

Educating.

great observation, but BitShares is using DPoS

How is that any better?

great share Bitshares will soon in top 05 coins

Thanks @steempower for sharing updates of a great decentralize exchange platform.

Awesome

I just create an account on Bitshare. I think it's very helpful for cryptocurrency holder.

When is the marketing going to start for the Billion Hero Challenge? I've barely heard about it lately here on STEEM much less on any other form of media. A month ago Stan was claiming a $50M advertising budget and mainstream advertising starting July 4th.

The Bitshares protocol is really a useful one, and thanks to you for such a nice post explaining the BSIP structures and decentralized exchange emphasis.

Great post, Upvoted and followed.

Great post! Upvote and resteem!!!

very welcome information.
I'm quite new to BitShares.
Amazing effort by the development/community
My question: is there any competitor to Openledger for instance Hyperledger that we should worry about? and what could we do better to succeed?

I like these developments for the future of money earning.

Noob question here.
Does Bitshare's exchange (Openledger) has enough volume for trading nowadays?
I'm thinking about moving my balances from Poloniex onto Openledger, just not sure about current volume and liquidity.
Thanks for posting.

why is trading Hero disabled?

update your wallet...

As a holder of some BIC I had to join the BTS openledger last week, so I am in the family now. Several days after that I succeeded to obtain more than 1 500 DNXTO. I do not know yet how to handle my existing assets but anyway this is another option to gain benefits from the cryptos. I like the exchange...

This is good news, been depositing bitshares and now I feel much more confident:) Nice update..got my witness vote!

It's the first time I read this report and I have an (allegedly dumb) question: I issued an asset called RUNCOIN, which aims to be distributed to runners, in an attempt to identify the need and potential use cases for tokenization for casual runners. The question is: OCASH will take RUNCOIN into account as well? Or it's just for a limited amount of assets.

And a bonus question: what do I have to do to have RUNCOIN mentioned in one of your reports? Just curious.

Thanks.

Thank you for the updates. I will like to check Smartcoin wallet app. Thanks for sharing.

?

Wow, a lot of information! @steempower thanks for making these super complete reports.

I would like to highlight the @kencode post talking about the re-design of your Wallet, I found wonderful changes in the interface, I would change one thing or another but overall this great.

Can I make a suggestion?
In the topic "BTS Trading" it would be interesting to increase a column indicating how many% has risen or fallen since the last report.

PS: I received your email, I was not able to answer it yet (I'm full of work here), but I've started to think about some improvements.

PS²: I would like to thank you, because after you noticed me as UI/UX Designer, I started writing about UX and since then I have been gaining more visibility.

These T-shirts and hats are soo cool!
