SO, who all pays attention to what's happening in here anyway? :P

Clueless

the devs are totally here to listen, and we have ideas for snowblossom's future.

Clueless
2018-07-30 02:07:16
@Clueless Can we hear your guys plans?

I’ve been wanting to see a roadmap on dev plans. But if you guys are looking for input I’d be glad to chime in

@CryptoQuan always open to input

@Clueless Will the team release a roadmap?

quantumblockz
2018-07-30 04:38:22
this is what we have for now.

Clueless
2018-07-30 04:38:27
how can it be better formed?

Clueless
2018-07-30 04:42:54
step by step

Looks good. I think going forward, SnowBlossom's purpose needs to be determined. Why does it need to exist? I see so many projects that offer a new approach, but they tack on features that don't really provide any value. For instance, would SnowBlossom be best used for a currency? Would it be best suited for an application platform? Or a utility coin for a unique service? Things like this need to be worked out. Otherwise, there isn't much usecase for SnowBlossom.

quantumblockz
2018-07-30 04:54:05
@quantumblockz a combination there of.

Clueless
2018-07-30 04:54:24
Yes, right now snowblossom doesn't have much use.

Clueless
2018-07-30 04:54:44
it provides features and POW that beat out a lot of competition, but until something accepts it, it's hard to use it

Clueless
2018-07-30 04:57:14
agreed

and website

Clueless
2018-07-30 06:29:13
Thanks for the update @Clueless. Didn't mean to sound bearish, just wanted to give some advice/constructive criticism as an investor and community member. You guys have done so much development in such a short time that rivals some of the top 10 projects. I appreciate what you're doing and have the utmost faith in this project.

Looking good @Clueless !

CryptoQuan
2018-07-30 12:37:42
I can work on a website if that will free you up

CryptoQuan
2018-07-30 12:38:13
But definitely agree with @quantumblockz, we need to agree to a purpose for Snowblossom

CryptoQuan
2018-07-30 12:39:13
I think the Custom POW and Quantum Resistance are enough of a differentiator, but others may have bigger plans/thoughts

CryptoQuan
2018-07-30 16:14:57
@alistar sweet!
Later, I'll definitely want to make a mandarin translation, possibly cantonese as well?
Also, if you want to mock up a website to look at designs, we can even vote if you want

Clueless
2018-07-30 16:15:46
i’d not claim quantum this or that - that’ll turn off technical people - wishing well upon unknown unknowns is not a good look

Rotonen
2018-07-30 16:16:46
as for purpose, the PoW is not limited by energy as much as compute limited mining is

Rotonen
2018-07-30 16:51:19
@Clueless okay, I can translate to mandarin. all Chinese know Mandarin include Hongkong, so we dont need cantonese version.

alistar
2018-07-30 16:51:42
Sounds good

Clueless
2018-07-30 16:53:43
@Rotonen yeah, I hear you. Really we should always say quantum resistance with a pointer back to the wiki saying that with currently known algorithms we expect large RSA keys to take much larger quantum machines and the protocol supports adding additional signing methods so we are ready to add in top entries or the winner from the NIST PQ contest as that goes along.

2018-07-30 16:54:04
Which is a better spot that most, probably

Fireduck
2018-07-30 16:55:42
I should see if any of those contestants have java implementations that I could plug in on testnet

Fireduck
2018-07-30 17:42:40
@Clueless forget making it prettier for now, that is solid already

Fireduck
2018-07-30 17:42:44
make it work

Fireduck
2018-07-30 17:42:51
then make it prettier

Fireduck
2018-07-30 17:43:22
smart

Clueless
2018-07-30 17:48:34
Looks great @Clueless

I’m working on a logo design that I think will be perfect. Should have it finalized tomorrow

@quantumblockz
Well. This is a community.
We want to know what you want to do.
We also don't want to announce anything we haven't thought about for awhile.

Clueless
2018-07-30 21:14:07
Are there any new people here?
I would like to grill you and get your opinions. :D

Clueless
2018-07-30 21:18:26
@Fireduck even that's assuming shor's algorithm to be the final frontier of quantum attacks even though the whole field in its infancy

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:18:47
@Fireduck but the green low energy angle might be marketable, and also actually true

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:20:08
I prefer to stay in the realm of nearly true and actually true when possible

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:20:19
and yeah, based on currently known algorithms

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:28:43
@Rotonen @Fireduck
Do you feel I should add the green thing as a feature? Even if accidental?

Clueless
2018-07-30 21:29:47
My basement doesn't feel very green

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:30:03
I'm putting about 1kW into snowblossom mining

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:31:43
if you scale up, your hashrate will most likely not be limited by your capacity to negotiate a bigger contract and a power feed with the utility company, but by affording the IO

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:32:20
and thinking that through, i tend to arrive at hash per watt calculations which look very promising for NVMe mining on the long run

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:32:45
like one can get 100kH/s on a ~40W total system power budget even now

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:33:46
I am asking my builder to put in a few new power circuits to my server room :wink:

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:34:16
I could do it myself, but I tend to do safe and effective electric work, not pretty electrical work

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:39:03
at some point you want someone to actually use their experience in overspeccing your wiring as you'll probably use more in the future and then they can just switch the fuse, or somesuch

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:39:10
or you're hitting a limit where you'd need to go three phase?

Rotonen
2018-07-30 21:39:45
Lol

Clueless
2018-07-30 21:39:56
In the US, residential is usually only wired with 1 phase (or 1 and a half phase, depending on how you call it)

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:40:24
@Rotonen I want your opinion on proper design.
What should I go for?

Clueless
2018-07-30 21:41:58
but I could have them put it in as 10 awg and be able to switch to 50A circuits if needed

Fireduck
2018-07-30 21:42:26
@Clueless design of what?
