[ANN][LSK] Lisk | Blockchain Application Platform for JavaScript Developers

[MalReynolds]

If i setup delegate, and somebody vote for me. Its possible to find who vote for me or its anonymous process ?

The voting is a normal Lisk transaction.  If the account that sends you a vote has been named by its owner, then you know who voted for you.  If they never named their account, it's an anonymous vote.  There are programs people have written to show a table of who voted for who.

  How do I vote?

Go to the Lisk client, open your account, click on "blockchain" on the left hand side, then click the "delegates" tab at the top.  Look up the delegate you want to vote for and click in the box beside his name.  Then click on "vote" in the upper right corner.

Thanks for info!

Note that I changed "blockchain" to "forging" in my post, I made a mistake.  Please correct it in your quote as well, thanks!

you can look for profit sharing delegates here.  There are a few available now.

Hello for all the Fudders and ICOers out there. I am delegate Bitcoinuserx. I understand the desire for profit sharing. However, I am not going to share my profit. LIKE NOO. But here is what I am going to do. I am a man of greater insight. I believe that the value of each Lisk will exponentially increase as more developers hop on to this project. Since I am Korean, I am going to spend my earnings to upgrade my server and translate all the necessary documents into Korean so that Korean developers join Lisk Revolution. This is so much more valuable in long term rather than just sharing profits. If you are holding Lisk long term and want your Lisk to reach over 10 dollars, I hope you vote for me. By voting me, you are supporting my work of bringing so many Javascript Developers in Korea who does not have a job. At launch, I will announce my forging account so that people can easily vote for me with few click of a button

Is there a list of delegates that will be profit sharing? to get votes

Yes : it's important.

- Dapps are some sort of apps.  People know apps but don't know why there shoud be a network surrounding them and why this network needs things like wallets and coins.

- The coins are the fuel of the network?  Why?

- Give me an example of a dapp that needs a network (blockchain) with expensive coins in order to make things work.

Your average Joe.

The first person to create a Lisk sports betting dapp becomes a billionaire.

Average Joe again:

Bets = shady = like bitcoin and funding terrorism and Ponzi-scheme stuff...

Next please

well I think the biggest issue is still that nobody knows the real price so we can't really do stuff that requires price calculations without totally just guessing.

It might very well turn out that this coin is NOT an expensive coin.

What about some sort of voting app where the dapp has control over issuance of registration tokens that are paid for in lisk.  This question is hard because you can basically say this for any coin.

The benefits are that the processing of transactions are lightning fast and it does not waste energy because of the streamlined block reward system.

Basically almost everything ethereum can do, Lisk can also do well.

the possibilities are endless and since it's new, it's your opportunity to build something you would want to use.

You mention Ethereum, that doesn't ring a bell to average Joe.

You have to have good arguments to counter opinions as:

- If I want something online, I pay with paypal/mastercard.  I ay and get it instantly.  Blockchain speed does not interest me, average Joe.  
- Services for which you have to go to a site you never heard of (like poloniex), trust them with your money in order to get some coin while the graphs of almost any coin suggest a volatility like Nasdaq on steroïds won't get many people motivated.  If they want to bet/buy/game, they'll use mastercard/visa/paypal.  Bitcoin has been around way longer and if I talk to people around me (educated ones), the most they know is that it was internetmoney that boomed, then crashed with some shady stuff in between.
- Speed is a good argument indeed but then again: if I want something, I just pay for it with the known alternatives (see previous point).

- local markets (as a dapp) could be interesting for fast money transfer between people IF they don't have to go to a place like poloniex.


I think adoption could be found in games, donating small amounts of money for sharity, donating a 'thanks with some juice' to (for example) an artist/journalist/...or in avoiding taxes (but then you're messing with powers you don't want to meet who will do anything to destroy you and your blockchain).

I think that many many people forget tahn voting is not free : 1 Lisk.
Many people will not vote at the begining...

yeah, you are right.  I mean, there's really no reason for anyone to use lisk or even bitcoin vs. Credit Cards.

This is still a speculators game and I don't think lisk or any altcoin will find mass adoption until bitcoin does first.  

So we develop little by little.  Rome was not built in a day.

you can vote for 33 people with 1 Lisk as long as you vote for them at the same time.

The average Joe doesn't know what the Internet of Things or future disrupting techs are. He's going to know what they are AFTER it has reached massive adoption; he will just know how to use them.

For any crypto-currency to reach mass adoption, it needs to be combined with emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles, among others. Lisk is a platform that runs decentralized applications, so combining the Lisk platform to the IoT is very possible. Blockchain technology has evolved past its terminology of "digital money", it's much more than that; it is capable of connecting billions of devices with higher efficiency and lower fees.

From BitShares, the idea was if delegate pay became high enough, delegates could become their own mini company hiring people to help bring value to the product.

[TravelsAsia]

Speaking of delegates, the community should:

1. Have a central location where delegates should report what they are doing to add value to the system.

2. Set minimum expectations of how often delegates should update the community.

The most annoying aspect of DPoS was getting updates. As a community, we should not have to track down updates. It should be the delegate's responsibilty to communicate.

but this is not something you can enforce.

Now if you got a group of people together who will only vote for people who participate in your system it would be good at convincing some to join up.

Hi guys! how and when to claim the signature btt bounty? thanks!

Hi guys! how and when to claim the signature btt bounty? thanks!

If you participated in the signature campaign and have invested in the ICO, you may PM LiskHQ your LISK address and he will record it down for you. If you didn't participate in the ICO, then you have to wait until LISK launches.
