01coin Project Update - September 10, 2018
Table of Contents
Welcome once again to 01coin's Anthology of Activity - our biweekly project update. Obviously, the big news over the past two weeks was our new wallet release, 01coin v0.12.3.2 on August 30. Don't forget this was a mandatory update - so upgrade your local and masternode wallets immediately if you haven't already.
New wallet release notwithstanding, there has been a lot of other developments within the project as well. Have a read to catch yourself up, and see if you can spot news about a surprise we have in store for the community!
Community Updates
- Added a new exchange presence at Ubit.pw; Although there is no volume on the exchange yet, already about 2.5 masternodes' worth of ZOC has been traded on it - so don't sleep on the arbitrage opportunities that are starting to pop up for ZOC between Graviex, Ubit, Bisq and - later this month - CryptalDash
- CryptalDash listing still on schedule to go live September 21
- Launched our first Gleam campaign to promote our Twitter and Facebook accounts as well as 01VPS.net
Enter our gleam contest for a chance to win 500 ZOC!
- Added a new masternode monitoring listing at NodeCheck.io (arguably the most feature-rich MN monitoring service available) thanks in no small part to the generous contributions of 01coin community member FreakHouse and NodeCheck's own iwalker - Thanks fellas!
NodeCheck.io offers your choice of light or dark themes
- Added a new market monitoring listing at coincodex.com thanks to the initiative shown by 01coin Chain of Trust member, Keith
- Discovered our Facebook and Twitter accounts had become unlinked, so Facebook had not been updated in a couple weeks; Caught Facebook up with the latest posts and will use Hootsuite going forward to crosspost on both platforms
- Completed internal first draft of the Project Whitepaper; after a round of proofreading, the draft will be shared among the zocteam for feedback
- Co-marketing effort alongside 01VPS.net, targeting the Gravium, VIOG, Scribe, and Oyster Platform communities
- Continued to run the community content creation competition (4C) for "How to Register on Graviex and Start Trading ZOC" - NB: The prize for creating 'acceptable' YouTube content is one masternode
- Provided some market-making support for the Bisq offer book; 01coin remains consistently in the Top 5 coins on Bisq in terms of open offers
Wallet and Core Development
- Released 01coin v0.12.3.2, which brings the 01coin core up-to-date with the latest development included in both Bitcoin 0.16.2 and Dash 0.12.3.2
Please note this is a mandatory update, so please upgrade your wallets immediately if you have not already done so
- Release occurred as planned and on schedule August 30, thanks to the cooperation of the exchanges, the pool admins and of course, the 01coin masternode network
The most community-centric splash screen in all of crypto
- Outside of Bitcoin and Dash core changes that have been adopted, changes specific to the ZeroOne core include:
- Removed alert system in favour of decentralization
- Restyled wallet and implemented UX improvements
- Added more and better seednodes
- Increased the default maximum connections to 16
- Improved high density display support
- Changed the reward reduction pace to the intended once-per-year rate
- Note the revised reward reduction pace also results in a reduction in max supply from 82M over 250 years to 66M over 216 years
- Massive update to the Trello board to reflect tasks marked as "Done" or "Done in Prior Release"
- Continued development attempts towards a build process for Raspberry Pi
- Continued to operate the daily blockchain bootstrap cron job posted to public GitHub
Ancillary Services Development
- Draft of full 01coin.io website based on Jesson's initial design nearing completion as lethax and Splendid are now collaborating on the finer details
- Updated masternode setup script to support the new wallet
- Updated max supply calculator to reflect reward reduction at every 210384 blocks instead of every 262800 blocks
- Completed the network architecture and backend development for an exciting new service soon to be launched in support of 01coin; some frontend work completed in anticipation of a beta launch within the next 2 weeks (more details will be made available upon launch)
01VPS.net Updates
- Added new one-click auto masternode setup recipes for Gravium and VIOG
- Added a new server in Germany offering both Small and Extra Small VPS instances
