good-karma witness update, ready for HF19 - 18th June, 2017

Can you explain what a hard fork is? And how it affects the platform? Thanks

good-karma (76) · 8 years ago (edited)

Hardforks are upgrades to the underlying technology (Steem blockchain) which usually improves the consensus mechanism of the platform. With each hardfork some parameters are tweaked/improved so that platform can grow and scale. If new changes or features are changing consensus those versions of software require hardforks, but if there are few bug fixes which won't effect consensus then they are softforks.

Thank you. Have followed your posts for some time now. You have my witness vote. Best wishes. We all can appreciate "good karma."
Why is everyone in a panic and tizzy over a possible bitcoin hard fork?

$0.00

good-karma (76) · 8 years ago (edited)

Good question, imho bitcoin is quite old tech and nobody wants to break it also reaching consensus on hardfork is impossible due to community size and not properly structured model around it. They don't want to fracture community into separate groups just like Ethereum which now has Ethereum classic because they couldn't reach consensus. On Steem everything works rather different, witnesses and community reach consensus through open public discussions, posts, debates, etc...

Sounds like a winner... "Open discussion" is steem and steemit.. what a powerful design. Now if the government will get lost....

Thank you @good-karma for witnessing. HF 19 seems to be a big thing. I am very interested to see the effect of HF19 on us minnows.
Question to you: is there any design dependency between eSteem and HF19? Why new release of eSteem is scheduled after HF19?
Thanks.

I am very proud of you, my witness @good-karma. Wow! So excited that we can now schedule post with eSteem. Exactly what I have longed and wished for. Now we have it! I really like the contribution which you have made and you are still making to the Steemit community. That is why I mentioned you in a video tutorial that I made 5 days ago, https://steemit.com/steemit/@maryfavour/voting-benefits-and-how-to-vote-in-steemit . Regarding lowered voting after hardfork 19, I have mixed feelings and for that reason have alerted my followers or teammates as I prefer to call them with this post, https://steemit.com/steemit/@maryfavour/steemit-hard-fork-0-19-0-moving-from-the-40-full-power-vote-era-to-10-full-power-vote-era . Well, let's see how it goes . Thank you so much for your good work and know that you have my continued support. Well done!!! Post rebloged.

Hey Feruz, it looks like the HardFork 19 transition is done great and the app is working better. I could feel that the voting power has increased tremendously now but I suspect it would be short lived as it will take 96 hours to regain the full voting power. Will wait and see how it turns out with the payout. You have been a great help! May your good karma repay you in tons!

Hi, They might have been maintaining their servers to upgrade Steem Wallets to recent version, yes most likely HF19. You can use Bittrex, which I think is done with their maintenance updates.

I wanted to bring to your attention this post I've just read by a (-5) rated user: https://steemit.com/blockchain/@akmalboo/flat-earth-201779t31938597z

I see you have a voted on it, perhaps automatically with a tool. I don't have issue with that, it's just that I'm not sure it looks great to see Witnesses voting on minus rated users. You might think the opposite or see no issue, just wanted to give you my opinion.

I just checked his content, looks like he is using eSteem and getting rewarded due to encouragement experiment! Votes doesn't necessarily means I agree with content! His reputation probably down due to copy pasted content and down votes. Posts I saw is not copy paste and he seemed to have learned lessons hard way, everyone makes mistakes and why not give him second chance?!
