Vote for my RSVP to increase my talking priority, Thanks :)
RSVP post contents:
@CM-Steem from the #Gridcoin community confirming intent to attend the 203rd BeyondBitcoin hangout episode!
Topics I shall be discussing/covering during my beyondbitcoin talking slot:
Trading info
- Since the 200th episode of BeyondBitcoin (3 weeks ago), the price of Gridcoin has increased from 0.00000597 to 0.00000981 (an increase of 64%). The price has held steady above 0.000009 for 11 days at this point (a new floor?).
Hangouts/Community
- The Gridcoin community has continued regularly holding hangouts, we're holding our next hangout (28th episode) on the 15st April 2017.
- We interviewed the project administrator from TN-Grid (an Italian university volunteer supercomputer primarily utilized for gene research), bringing the quantity of interviews held to 7.
- We now have approx 93 tasks being tracked and worked upon by community members, up 10 from the last time I attended.
- A week in Gridcoin #14 - weekly Gridcoin and BOINC news and statistics, get the latest news first!
Projects removed from Gridcoin's whitelist
- ATLAS. Reason: Project is retiring, research moving to sister BOINC project.
- Drug Discovery At Home. Reason: Drama related to SONM.IO.
- Enigma@Home. Reason: A lack of available work units (We (the BOINC community) may have cracked all the remaining enigma codes).
Services
- Gridcoin is currently being accepted at 12 stored via coinpayments.net (up 5 stores since episode 200) - If you're using coinpayments, please consider accepting Gridcoin (GRC).
- I have requested OPEN.GRC price feed support within BTSBOTS.COM so that our community can begin providing liquidity with ease on the Bitshares network!
- GridcoinStats has since the last hangout continued to improve. Some of the changes:
- Fancier Address scheme used throughout website
- Search functionality! (TXID, Addresses, Blocks, CPID, etc).
- Nicer Graphs
- Detailed avg performance per project for certain computer architectures.
- User hosts details shown on CPID page (if not set to hidden).
- Improved Steemit integration (Monitoring 27+ tags)
Bounties
- 200k bounty on the removal of the mandatory team requirement which involves scaling from the current (approx) 12K users to between 250,000 and 4 Million users!
Dev news
- Mandatory Gridcoin client upgrade 3.5.8.8! Required to fix issues with syncing, the mandatory upgrade block has passed and the network is fully stable with services and exchanges returning to normal operation.
- New branching strategy. Development, Staging and master.
- Next version ready for beta testing (available in PPA)
- Update to the Hungarian translation (thanks to matthew11)
- I've begun creating custom netdata chart plugins for Gridcoin. These enable real-time monitoring of the Gridcoin client with relative ease. Have a look at one of the netdata pages!
- A community member has created a Gridcoin Rainmeter widget for monitoring GRC stats on the desktop.
Bitshares hangout appearances
I spoke during the 14th Bitshares hangout regarding my Bitshares BOINC project ideas, give it a listen if you have not done so yet.
Best regards,
CM.
