Independent algorithm chains

Dynamic Blocks

Based on block height and difficulty ( means no cheap blocks )

Instamine protection

Instamine protection will trigger after 5 blocks of single algo are mined in short period of time.

Deadlock protection

Difficulty is reduced even when no new blocks are found, new blocks are mined much faster even after very high hashrate period. This prevents "stuck chain" issues.

Spork control over block processing

The  ability to stop the blockchain anytime by sporks manually if any kind of dangerous activity in network is detected. We have full control of block processing without need to wallet upgrade.

What is BATA (BTA)?



Barter And Trade Alternative.

Bata (BTA) is a cryptocurrency that has been developed to replace trade dollars in traditional Barter Systems. As the "Sharing Economy" grows, so does the decentralized market.

Bata aims to change way the way we trade, by introducing Barter on the Blockchain.

A Barter cryptocurrency has been re-invented on a blockchain, decentralized, secure and widely available in the form of BTA, replacing a Trade Dollar. Trade Dollars are just like cash and for that matter are based on regular currency, but in current Barter Systems they are controlled and issued by a central party.

BTA is traded on multiple cryptocurrency exchanges right across the globe.


Our vision is to create a new system of commerce that will create new jobs for an information based economy, and to help break away from the current system of debt based money.

(https://bata.io/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Barter_Bata_BTA_14_Billion_Dollar_Industry.png)

BarterChain by Bata. We are changing commerce for the better.

BarterChain by Bata, Exchange, and Marketplace represent a transformative vision of the future of commerce, with the goal of removing the greatest pain points in the lives of sellers and buyers of goods and services.  Providing unique interfaces, tools and automation features for traders of goods and services, commerce will be redefined by Bata.  Users will more easily participate in barter as means of trade, while also allowing traditional buying and selling, and adding a system of incentives and leverage to traders and users in unique ways.  It will build up a new form of trading community around the Exchange and Marketplace, and bring value to the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem.


(https://bata.io/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/BarterChaintwitter.png)


Traditional Barter Platform vs. BarterChain by Bata.

Bartering helps you exchange goods or services at once, without money. It has no limits and can be done both on a very small-scale and on an exceedingly larger-scale. The arrangements are under the control of member-only associations, with credit units the channel of exchange, (other terms like trade exchange, barter exchange and countertrade exchange). To explain the channel of exchange, different terms like credits, units, barter dollars or trade dollars are being used. As the medium of exchange, the term which is mostly used is trade dollar.

Looking deeper into barter deals there is huge difference between direct barter and exchange barter. In return barter, you may use your capacity, inventory or excess time to trade for goods and services you need. For such deals, you don’t need money as long as you are part of a barter group with other businesses. Each business earns trade dollars which can be employed for the exchange of the things you want. Direct barter means to swap the service or product for the service of your seller.


Bata transformed from a Proof of Work Scrypt based cryptocurrency to a multi-algo  POW (6 Algos) & introduced Masternodes. We plan to introduce a 7th algo which will be POS, making Bata, a multi-algo POW/POS Hybrid.

BTA’s growth has been organic, much like Bitcoin, with no funding or premine and established late April of 2015.


We want to get feedback from the community, early and often. We put the vision, whitepapers and roadmap out to the world now, because we need the best developers in the world to come help build the best commerce system in the world, built on blockchain technology with Bitcoin at the base of it all. Join us on Discord!

Projects on the go - 2 to 3 weeks estimated completion:

- Online Wallet with QR
- Electrum Server
- Tipbot (Twitter)
- Android Wallet

Website revamp has been delayed - will come after projects finished.

Decided that would not use cointopay services at present, the community is well aware BTA has no premine funding, so paying for services now is not really justified, its a cost that I can do without at the moment.

Hello S**k, (name withheld)

Have you not been reading about developments? I2P / TOR intergration ready, electrum server ready, android wallet ready, paperwallet ready.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1040956.0

The website has not been developed yet as it currently is more important to develop the functions of Bata.

More developments are underway - electum wallet (lite weight wallet - does not require you to download full wallet) - not alot of coins have this.

I continue to post updates across 7 forums, twitter, facebook and Linkedin.

The price is going up and down, meaning it is being traded.

Thanks for your email.

Regards,

1/ Some feedback on Bata's website.

http://peek.usertesting.com/result/12920363071402

The site review brought a few things - which I have changed or will be changing soon.

Any other feedback is welcome. If anyone wants to contribute please let me know.


2/ On another note I think the platform that the classifieds was being built on is not workable.

To create a "Decentralized Barter Exchange" that uses BTA instead of trade dollars may require external funding (crowdfunding).

Think of a cross between ebay, freelancer.com & bartercard.com.au - built from scratch. Existing Barter sites will be unable to compete as BTA (as a trade dollar) is also traded on live markets and can be directly transferred into bitcoin, or any other cryptocurrency. Bata only has a 5 million coin cap, therefore the demand for BTA will also increase its marketcap and price.

I am having a meeting in one week to discuss project with a programmer.

More details will be made public when they become available.

Any thoughts are welcomed.

Bata Android wallet will be uploaded to google play soon.

We are nearing 100k block and reward of 25 will halve.

Bata only has 5 million coins so it will be much harder to obtain BTA soon, best time to buy.

Some updates for everyone:

The Coinomi.com and Uberpay.io integration of Android wallet are almost ready to submit. This is exciting for Bata (BTA) as it will be available along side with other popular Cryptocurrencies, giving Bata more exposure and in turn will help build our user base. With a larger user base we should see more value added to Bata's Marketcap.

Hopefully you have seen all the notifications regarding the voting to be listed on Cryptopia exchange, the results are looking very good, with BTA on highest number of user votes with just over 1 day to go. Every vote counts so if you have not voted today, be quick to get in your vote.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support. I will keep you up to date.

What is Bata [BTA]?

Bata [BTA] is also known as Digital Interchange. Ok, so what is Interchange?

in·ter·change
verb
ˌin(t)ərˈCHānj/

    1.
    (of two or more people) exchange (things) with each other.

noun
ˈin(t)ərˌCHānj/

    1.
    the action of interchanging things, especially information.


Interchange is also known as Barter.

Direct barter deals can be effective, but they lack flexibility, which limits how often they may occur.  The challenge with a direct peer-to-peer barter is you might want something that one person or business has, but they may not want what you have. BATA a currency of trade dollars you can barter / trade conveniently across multiple platforms right across the globe.

How does it work?

Bata is flexible, secure and fully accountable way for individuals to barter their goods and services all around the world.

Your IP address is hidden when you choose to use the Bata QT with TOR or i2P, giving you added security and privacy. 
 
Bata adds another dimension to the way you spend money by giving you the freedom and privacy of peer-to-peer transactions.

BTA Wallet has integration with i2P or TOR - a hidden wallet address provides privacy and extra security.

TOR & i2P integration are optional for QT Wallets.

Instructions on setting up Privacy Nodes: https://github.com/BTA-BATA/BATA-SOURCE/blob/master/README.md

Privacy & Security Nodes (I2P / TOR)

Bata give you the option of secure and private transactions via I2P or TOR. Hide your IP address for added security and privacy.

What is TOR?

Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business
activities and relationships, and state security. more info.

Official TOR Website GET TOR - https://www.torproject.org/
                                            - https://www.torproject.org/about/overview.html.en

What is I2P?

The Invisible Internet Project (I2P)


I2P is an anonymous network, exposing a simple layer that applications can use to anonymously and securely send messages to each other. The network itself is strictly message based (a la IP), but there is a library available to allow reliable streaming communication on top of it (a la TCP).

All communication is end to end encrypted (in total there are four layers of encryption used when sending a message), and even the end points ("destinations") are cryptographic identifiers (essentially a pair of public keys).

If you have not looked into Uberpay, have a good look. Bata as you know will be in the Android Multi Wallet, Uberpay now is going to release an iOS wallet as well that Bata will be added to.

I have some exciting news after speaking with Uberpay and Bata will be available alongside Bitcoin in Uberpay's ATM's.

This will help decentralize Bata and help Bata progress and develop a larger community and user base.

Development of the ATM is in final stages and will be available soon.

Here is a FB link for you.

Great news, Bata is now on EXCHANGED.i2P

here's a tutorial on how to access the anonymous i2p exchange:

1) Download i2P for your platform. https://geti2p.net/en/download

2) after it's installed, start it! use the icon that says Start i2P (no window)

3) open your favorite browser (we prefer firefox) and set your proxy to 127.0.0.1 port 4444 (see bottom of page if you cant figure out where to set proxy)

4) put exchanged.i2p or http://ylmulgfskl6uiwac4hw4ecwqdzd3oxtwaemzj25zc6k5q4rkexra.b32.i2p/ as the URL and hit enter

5) you're done! just make an account like you would anywhere else.


if the site doesnt show up, try waiting a few minutes, sometimes i2p takes a while to start up, especially if its the first time.

I have contacted Yobit.net personally to see what the issue maybe and have yet to receive a response.

After just checking I noticed that Yobit.net BTA wallets are back online.
I must also state for the record that I have not personally be contacted by Yobit, nor as any message, tweet or forum posting been answered. This is a very poor standard in my opinion. My advice would be to remove any BTA from this exchange, until we can be reassured that BTA will not be experiencing any more issues with deposit addresses or withdrawals.

BTA has not or ever had an issue with its wallets or code.

Great news - BTA has been accepted to be included on Steak Cloud  http://steakcloud.com/

Take a look at the frequently asked questions here : http://steakcloud.com/faq

Steak Cloud mines altcoins and in return pays out in the POS or POW coin of your choice.

This should make miners, traders and investors happy with more of an increase in BTA's value and marketcap.

The network hashrate has been increasing steadly as chart shows : http://www.coinwarz.com/network-hashrate-charts/bata-network-hashrate-chart

The last month saw an increase in BTA's marketcap and value: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bata/#charts

The website has been tweaked some more and now has some graphics on the Anonymity page - ideally these would be professionally done, but I am keeping costs down for BTA and doing the work myself. If anyone has any ideas or is a website wiz I am open to working something out with them. Ideally infographics are needed.

The exchange had some issues installing wallet so we have a dev giving them a hand with the daemon - so that should be coming soon.

The Coinomi wallet had to be redone so that it could be integrated into the main Coinomi wallet - this is almost complete.

Uberpay is also underway.

The price at the moment is low in my opinion, for a crypto with a small amount of overall total coins to be produced.

I have been watching trading and I can see that some traders are keen to see Bata's price kept down. The effort to keep the price down is in order to buy more at a lower price. If you have a look yourself, there is an effort to keep the price below 800 sats as small amounts of BTA are sold on low market bids.

On the other hand when you look at the sell price, it has been above 1000 sats, floating around the 1200 - 1500 sats. There is also some sell orders of small amounts keeping the price down too.

That's what happens exchanges. Yes the price in my opinion should be closer to the 5k sat mark or even to be so bold as saying it should be closer to the 10k sats mark. Take a look, there is only a few bitcoin of sell orders standing in the way.

The market dictates the price, Bata does not, can not or will not manipulate the price.

Over the last week or so I have watched BTA's price being driven down on the exchanges.

So I wanted to point out some things...

Recent updates:
Domain name - Bata.io
New Website - Templates and plug ins etc
Android Wallet updated

Keep in mind Bata did not have a premine, IPO, ICO, crowdfund or any other methods of obtaining money from outside sources. Every BTA that is in my possession has been bought or mined.

Bata was released just over 7 months ago - we are still here, same team - no takeovers, no dramas etc.

No donations have been received or sought from the BTA community.

There are less than 8000 blocks till Bata's reward for miners halves from 12.5 to 6.25 - (this equals harder work for miners for less reward = less BTA sold at market bids)

Addition to the BTA / BTC android wallet are the Coinomi and Uberpay multicoin wallets - these all run off BTA-Electrum with instant payments, without having to download the blockchain.

Geopay: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mygeopay.wallet - final testing done - waiting for release.

These wallets that are available on Google Play Store and will also give BTA more exposure.

Will keep you updated.

Hello everyone,

I have just updated all the SEO information for bata.io, in preparation for translation for the website. This should help rankings with the site.

Geopay Developers have advised me that Monday will be the release of the Uberpay wallet update with Bata included (Unless there are delays, which they don't foresee any at the moment)

Keep an eye out for it, but I am sure to let you know either way.

Post by: CryptoOz on February 28, 2016, 05:55:43 AM
Here's something to discuss & your input would be appreciated - this will be added to OP - the next step for BTA.


The barter system is an old method of exchange which has been used for centuries and long before money was invented. People exchanged services and goods for other services and goods in return.
Today, bartering has made a comeback using techniques that are more sophisticated to aid in trading online. Barter has grown into a $20 billion-a-year industry. Currently, 60 percent of Fortune 500 companies and hundreds of thousands of other businesses around the world barter.

Barter may also occur in commercial economies, usually during periods of monetary crisis. During such a crisis, currency may be in short supply, or highly devalued through hyperinflation. In such cases, money ceases to be the universal medium of exchange or standard of value. Money may be in such short supply that it becomes an item of barter itself rather than the means of exchange. Barter may also occur when people cannot afford to keep money (as when hyperinflation quickly devalues it).

Barter has been re-invented, decentralized, secure and widely available in the form of Bata (BTA).

BTA will enable you to barter / trade conveniently across multiple platforms right across the globe - buying, selling, swapping and earning.

BTA converts slow moving stock, downtime, spare capacity or vacant seats into extra sales.

Gain new customers, who generate increased sales income
Move excess stock or utilise downtime
Free up cash to pay existing expenses
Increase profits from introduction of new business

You don't have to purchase from the same business that purchases from you
You can spend with anyone locally, nationally and internationally
You can sell now and buy later, or buy now and sell later
You can use Bata as capital to trade, even before making a sale

Promote your company to thousands of local, national and international businesses who are all potential customers. Every new customer brought to you by the Bata community brings new income on top of what you're already receiving, which will help to increase your profit margins.

The great thing about this Barter service vs current systems that rely on a line of credit and debt system is that your BTA can go up in value, so instead of being in debt your are potentially going to make money by holding BTA, or cash out, in 30+ currencies.


Here is an example on how BTA works - provided by BTA / BCT community member: thoth-Atlantian

It's all about idle stock & capacity!

I will use a restaurant as my example.

John owns a restaurant that 5 nights a week is only 65% full,
He has all his normal staff on, the lights and gas equipment is on but he could still seat another 45 people.
That is idle capacity.
So he has the latest BATA app and sets it to open for BATA!

Susan the head of Advertising at some local radio station who is taking out some clients to impress them see's this and goes to Johns restaurant using BATA as her means of payment.

Now this works well for John as he wouldn't normally have had anyone to fill that table on that night and instead of it going to waste he sold $300 worth of food. Because his food costs are only 25% and everything else was being paid for anyway
Whatever he buys now with his BATA will be at a 75% discount!!!

What about Susan you ask? well radio has plenty of idle time to sell with low overheads, she was straight onto the new BATA app when she saw it was available, As she has high customer relations costs.

Also she had her bathroom remodelled by Bob the builder whose booked job was rained out for the week and had to line up some inside work to help pay the guys somehow. She was happy to supply the goods and pay for the labour.
Of course after download fee BATA would expect 2.5% fees each way on all transactions and a renewal of subscription annually.



We are taking Barter to the next level, your community input is greatly valued and can shape the future of commerce.

There is no urgency regarding any changes, any changes will be calculated and measured against what the affect it may have on current and future holders of BTA.

Livecoin appears to be doing large amounts of volume of BTA daily which looks promising and has surpassed trading on Bittrex by thousands.

Personally I think that Multi Algo will not give BTA the result it requires, yes it would be great for decentralization, but the majority of BTA is either being exchanged or held, so it is not a fair enough option.

Make sure your vote counts.

Proof of stake is leading.

We know the benefits of POS in regards to the overall vision of BTA.

Some things to start thinking about are:

1/ What type of POS?
2/ When does POS begin?

PLEASE WITHDRAW ALL BTA FROM NOVAEXCHANGE


Please ensure your BTA is safe in your wallet, not on an exchange.

Please exercise caution when using exchanges, the safest place for your BTA is in your locked, backed up wallet.

https://novaexchange.com/message/

Quote
Please withdraw your coins from Novaexchange.
The exchange has been attacked and caused some trades in certain markets - to be honest - has messed up balances in a few accounts.

Please withdraw your coins from the exchange - right away. And do not send any coins here! Any deposits will be rejected!

Dont forget to click the verification link inside your e-mail in order to activate the withdrawal.

More information can be found here

 System notice
Everyone, please withdraw everything from Novaexchange - Everything!


Also DO NOT send any coins here! I repeat DO NOT!


ALL TRADES HAS BEEN STOPPED, ANY DEPOSITS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED! WITHDRAW YOUR COINS NOW!


An vulnerability has opened up for a specific user give themselves an insane amount of Bitcoins. These has been used to trade in the markets, balances has been re-arranged.


All in all, BTC, DOGE and ESP balances cannot be trusted, the vulnerability caused the attacker insert a transaction within deposit systems. But did not think that Novaexchange is a young exchange that doesn't bank a lot of coins. The total volume of BTC in the most important wallet was 3.82 BTC before the attack, not a huge amount but that does not mean it is not painful for some.

The attacker themselves did not get away with anything - actually it is happy users that got traded in ESP market during the last few hours that became happy they sold for BTC and withdrew everything. Which caused the wallet to go empty.

All trades and such is logged and I could technically do a rollback of all trades even if it will take a lot of time to sort everything out. Which would you prefer?
I am concidering to close down the exchange permanently once you have withdrawn your coins, unless the community gives any reason for Novaexchange to stay around. I wanted the site to become a serious player in this business with a lot of alt-coins that other exchanges refuses to trade, that was the idea behind Novaexchange.

We have experienced an issue with Uberpay due to electrum server expiring. The electrum server was hosted by a third party and I received no notification that the service was about to expire. I do not believe that I received any notification from Uberpay regarding an issue with the BTA electrum server. Therefore we will no longer be using Uberpay as a third party android wallet provider.

One community member contacted me to advise there was an issue . No one else has raised the issue with me. I consider that an indication that others were not using the android wallet. Any claims further claims of loss will need to be backed up with proof.

We will continue to support Coinomi as they have demonstrated competency regarding any issues.

We have another developer working on the code updates for BTA who has successfully updated to 0.8.7.5 core. There is also a transition to the v2 of the Bitcoin protocol that needs to happen.  On current wallet (core 0.8.6.1) the transition code was disabled.

Before this version is released, testing of the coin transfer, mining and bitcoin v2 protocol transition will be done.

Next upgrade should start soon after the wallet up to date with core 0.10, inline with Litecoin.  This helps keeping the wallet up-to-date and easier to apply any updates that occur with Bitcoin or Litecoin.

Once complete we will be ready to implement the Hybrid wallet (POW / POS).

We maybe leaning towards decentralized "Barternodes" as a Barter platform:

Quote from dev support:

Masternodes / Decentralized Barter Market

If you plan to look into the decentralized market place, "Barternodes" would be an interesting option to host the market places.  Since each country has different rules, Barternodes could be based on country of origin.  If certain countries have restrictions and require a licence or registration, an operator hosting the Barternode in the country would be responsible for those requirements.

Let hear what you the community thinks of that.

How much coins will be need for run one Barternode ?

This would be something we as a community would have to decide upon. I think an amount of at least 100k, maybe more depending on what the community decides.

The test of the wallet update /Satoshi:0.8.7.5/ is stable and shows no signs of issues.

A must read if you are interested in the future of BTA:

Quote
This paper is a consideration of the definition of barter credit as a secondary currency. The business-to-business barter exchange and the national economy function as a system comprised of a currency component and a marketplace component. Barter activity including the creation of a medium of exchange is recognized and defined in national legislation of some key jurisdictions, and is defined de jure as a part of the national economy. The barter credit is thus de facto defined as a currency secondary to the national currency which is the primary currency. I consider three points: 1. The rule of “fair market value” guides behaviour in the barter exchange, 2. The option for business to operate in both the barter exchange and the national economy is a mechanism linking the two, 3. The barter exchange functions in such a way that there can be anti-deflationary dynamics in the region, as articulated by Stodder (2009).

Title: Re: [BTA] BATA | Barter on the Blockchain. The predecessor of trade tokens. POW/POS
Post by: CryptoOz on October 09, 2016, 06:24:02 PM
Developments are still in progress. The main object which was undertaken to update the core, was for two reasons, so that future updates can be applied with most current core available. Doing this ensures that we do not need to create a whole new client for POS. If we created a POS client straight away, some of the community may not be up to date with the current new chain, losing BTA which is not good for anyone. There is another code update to come. Then will we update the code to POW / POS for a period of time which is still to be determined as stated by Midnight Miner : "I agree with the idea of keeping a PoW / PoS Hybrid wallet.  If the price of Bata remains above 5k even 10k would be nice.  Keeping a 1 BTA PoW block reward would help chain stability.  There are a lot of Scrypt miners out there looking for something profitable to mine.  Would need to a build a math model to see what levels are feasible on both PoW and PoS participants."

We will release information regarding the Barter platform developments once a working model is completed.

Community it is your choice whether you support the market on Bittrex or not. I would argue that we need to keep this market.

Time to buy or sell:

"This market is in danger of de-listing due to low trade volume and lack of user interest. It may be removed on Friday, October 21st 2016 unless the average daily trade volume for the last 14 days exceeds 0.3 BTC. If you would like to keep the market listed, please encourage the development team to contact us at [email protected]. If you have questions about the policy, please see https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202583874."

I have contacted support to advise them on the progress which we are undertaking to transform BTA and could not disclose anymore information on the Barter System than I have already stated on this forum.

Our goal is getting closer than ever before, it would be a shame to see us removed from an exchange because of lack of interest or lack of trade.

BTA Price is what market makes it.

It is a good idea to take note that BTA has been a profitable coin for a lot of miners and is in many multipools (Data Source : Coinwarz.com).

Miners usually will mine for profit and cash out for Bitcoin, therefore selling at market bid.

Once the POW / POS stage begins we should see the markets react a different way, as it will also be profitable to hold BTA for POS.

It will be interesting to see what price the trading market will place BTA at.

One should also consider that if Bata where to gain 1% of the 20 Billion Dollar Barter Industry, as a "modest" goal, what BTA would be traded at.

A bit of an update on development.

Some minor roadblocks migrating to core 0.10. We won't mess up the Bata network while debugging the features, therefore it being tested on other chain for now before release.

We want to make sure there is only one release of the wallet with the core 0.10 so we can move on to the BarterNodes. So as soon as the wallet is up and stable, we can start planning the PoS integration and include it in the code in this release.

As I pointed out earlier in a post miners of Bata are still profitable. This supports the idea that we should not leave them behind.

It seems to us that the pure PoS coins are many, but not a lot of them are surpassing a year on the market. The advantage of hybrids, is you have the attention of both types of 'miners'  PoW & PoS.

A fairer POS system is being developed by Development Support, more details will follow.

In essence what is being created is to ensure any new or old member of the $BATA community will be able to stake without disadvantage allowing for more decentralization and longevity to the Bata network.

We will not head down the path of stagnation seen in many POS cryptos.

We are taking measured steps to ensure the transition process will transform BTA.

Once again this will be up to the Bata community to decide. Actions speak louder than words.



email sent below:

Hello Bittrex,

We have received message regarding BTA's delistment unless volume increases.

Our code is in the process of being converted to a new type of POW / POS hybrid. I have had family issues and am relying on development support to re code, therefore it is taking longer than anticipated because of math and mapping was required for a new type of POS.

We recently released a whitepaper in progress:

I hope to rally the community save us from delisting from Bittrex as we see this as a most important Exchange in our future.

I have been contacted a member of the community how stated:

"You might have to put up your coins on the sell side to get bought as there isn't enough liquidity."

My Response was:

"Its up to Bittrex management if volume is not going to get us across the line. I am not going to sell BTA to ensure we stay listed."

I would like to restate the following:

Bata did not have the luxury of a premine, a crowdfund, an ICO or any other practices that funded the project.

I personally had to get BTA the same way everyone has to get it. I do hold a large wallet, but I will not dump my coins or sell anywhere near the price is now.

Traders you're welcome to have a field day, but don't forget the larger picture here.

We all started this together, look back from page one.

I have absorbed the costs associated with development, upgrades etc. Hosting, domains etc. My time & notably my electricity.

I must say I have had some help with community members for the blockchain hosting.

We have big plans for Bata, which dev support crunching numbers and churning out code.

As I said last time it would be sad if Bittrex delists us, but that has not yet happened, so we should not speculate.

BTA liquidity is there if you are not dreaming.

I can't build a wall of BTA buys.

I think people tend to give too much importance to the trade volume. There are a lot of good coins with low trading volume. And that sounds reasonable to me. Unless a coin is widely adopted and used as a real mean of payment, like bitcoin, I don't see why there must be a lot of trading going on. Just to make speculators happy?

Why the hell should people massively sell a good coin? That is the question.

Post by: CryptoOz on December 07, 2016, 02:29:48 AM
Here is a glimpse of the proposal for the implementation of the BATA PoS model.

The blockchain will use the difficulty calculation - Dark Gravity Well v3 (DGW3) to adjust the staking reward. [...] There is a difference from most PoS type coins.  Most PoS coins use the difficulty to adjust the ability of a coin to claim a staking reward. [...] The Bata staking will have consistent staking intervals for coinbase of 1000 Bata or more, but will adjust the staking reward based on the difficulty.

The original target was to reward a 1000 Bata coinbase with a staking reward of 1 Bata after a 7 day period.  This type of stake reward would leave inflation unchecked, and could result in PoS rewards out pacing the PoW rewards increasing the coin supply too quickly. [...] A coin supply the expands too quickly, result in a deflation in the value of the coin.  If the new coins sit stagnant in staking wallets the coin supply does not generate or attract new value to the market value.  This is what occurs with the majority of now dead PoS coins.  Sitting in wallets staking and not much more, hoping for something of value to occur.

In order to provide a fair and even distribution of the staking rewards to most staking wallets, all while keeping inflation and the growth of the coin supply to support a growing trading/barter market the following model was developed for the stake rewards.

Happy trading.

Let's get some buying happening or trading across all our exchanges.

We are at a low price now, across many exchanges, we are flying very low under the radar.

The problem is it is too low. The spreads are easy to manipulate due to small sell orders driving the price down.

If you are looking to purchase BTA, obviously you want it at the lowest price, but keep in mind things will soon change with releases coming.

Many have stated it previously, including myself, that BTA is at bargain prices right now.

Barter is the way forward.

Think of it as rather than BTA trying to replace BTC, but as a leverage towards better trade and earning potential.

In a traditional barter platform a company or corporate gives "credit to barter traders if they do not want to swap good, but sell them. The traders are in debt to the company who provides the credit, charging them interest.

In BATA's model no company is involved or creates credit. If you don't want to swap you are paid BTA, which with POS enabled will earn you money.

An example of a corporate model for Barter Trade. Bata (BTA) aims to replace a Trade Credit as per graphic with BTA, which is valued against Bitcoin. The Barter system is not owned by a company, but by peers, decentralising across the globe for local trade or international. The BTA Blockchain is secured by Proof of Work (POW), in addition we are adding Proof of Stake (POS), so that BTA is available to all, not just those with special hardware.
Leverage your stock, services & business relationships.

The implementation of POS & POW will be soon, some delays have been incurred due to the holiday season and the distractions & interactions.

We understand the urgency and will ensure that we will release a new type of POW / POS hybrid wallet.

Dev support has confirmed these details with me.

I personally also feel that a release during one of the largest Bitcoin rallies of recent, would not be benefit $BTA, or supporters.

Dev Support may want to chime in to add anything further to this question.

One thing to add is that we can upgrade to the latest litecoin core, with all its developments at any time.
Title: Re: $BTA | BATA | Barter via Blockchain. New POW / POS Hybrid in development.
Post by: CryptoOz on January 29, 2017, 08:07:08 AM
Update Dev Support:

Current PoW reward is 0.78125 Bata per block. So the money supply will not be reached anytime soon.  Since the halving of the reward happens every 100 000 blocks the money supply will be reached somewhere after block 1.8M when the PoW reward is 0.00009536.

It has taken 20 months to reach block ~550K, therefore block 1.8M is approx. 3-4 years away before we reach coin supply.

The type of PoS proposed for Bata will add a maximum of 225000 Bata per year assuming all wallets are staking (not likely to be achieved).
So adding to the total coin supply would allow the coin to introduce a higher minimum block reward for PoW AND/OR a modest PoS reward to keep stability in the network.

Relying on pure PoW mining when the coin supply is reached has not been very successful for other coins that have reached their coin supply. 

We will see how the PoW participation scales as the PoW rewards continue to decrease.  If the value of Bata continues to rise, then yes, PoW mining will continue to support the network.  But if PoW mining participation drops enough to only a couple of pools, then the stability of the blockchain will become an issue.  At that point, extending the coin supply to increase the PoW mining reward or implementing PoS will be needed to maintain the network stability.

Nothing is imminent at the moment, but there is planning going on to prepare for the possible scenarios.

Hello community,

BTA has been approached to become involved in:

https://entangleit.com/

"It's already a Post Quantum World.
Quantum computers are a reality.  The World is entangled.  Security is weak.  It's time to secure our past and future while we still can."

The project has been in research since 2000.

Ask questions please and I will do my best to answer. I may not answer straight away, but post your thoughts or questions.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the interest.  Bata is very cool and EntangleIT intends to integrate Bata into our Blocklattice.  The purpose is to audit, protect and heal blockchains securely in case of tampering or bugs.  It's purpose is to eliminate scamcoins from the face of the Earth as well.  So, this is not going to be a pump and dump scheme.  This is about saving humanity.  Transaction fees will be absolutely 100% free.  ICO will reserve a developer(s) reward that will not be accessible for 5 years or upon deadman's switch, transferred to designated address for next of kin.

If you are interested further, there is a lot to discuss.  Nothing is in stone yet.  We've begun with a clean slate.  Now's the time to get involved.

Regards,

Richard Anthony Hein

Richard will certainly have a detailed post once he has everything covered.

I have just been retweeting some of this previous posts on twitter, I must say a wealth of information.

We are certainly honoured to have him by our side.


Thanks for everyone who has become involved in discussions, it is great to see some new names and old.

I wish to share a conversation that has been edited, but will give you an idea of how Bata fits into the picture:

---------------

Let me tell you my vision for bartering, and disrupting EBay, Craigslist, Amazon and ecommerce entirely.

1.  When an item is purchased, user records it, eventually with 3D scanning via phone/Kinect/etc.,
2.  Item is recorded on the Blockchain, for obvious reasons now, like insurance etc... (see Trov), but we could also set a price at which item
3.  Items therefore, if you think about it, can sell themselves.
4.  DAOs can see items desired,  build them (3D printing etc) and market them, all without exposing any personal details
5.  Other users can see what is desired, and of course, use that to create products and services, and/or generate DAOs for very specific things


There is more
 
Auto sell
Uber Etc..., for auto deliveries
Then drones


Putting many pieces together to redefine commerce.

DAOs will perform crowdfunding and crowdsourcing

Allowing investors to invest in a new product or service, or simply unique one off items/services that normally would never be made.  DAOs don't need to turn a profit, always, just enough to operate, because, well, it's not a greedy person.  That's to say, the DAOs serve the public and may be non-profit.

Eventually, I think the ultimate currency will be mined by proof of mass transport, measuring the work required to assemble and distribute goods and services.  Like ForceCoin I.E.  measure forces used -Reward accordingly

And energy production etc.

Now, let me shift gears


Weather

Ok weather machine:

If miners are distributed everywhere, we can control the weather. Furnaces will be miners - (already some)

Chaos Theory

Butterfly Effect

And with the computational power, we will be able to control weather.

Ok now the Quantum Wheel


Either it will move arbitrarily in any direction w
 
Well it acts like antigravity

Or it won't move at all
Due to symmetry
Unless we figure out how to break symmetry
It must be possible I think, but maybe totally out of reach for us
To understand...
There has been experiments that have made a physically macro scale "diving board" like structure
It's visible under a cheap light microscope
Still macro comparatively
And they entangled the up and down states

 Such that it was both up and down simultaneously.

If you can make spokes instead of just one "diving board" and can break symmetry then it will turn without turning
Or turn and not turn
At the same time

If it can turn and yet not turn at the same time, then it can also turn 1,000,000,000 rpm and not turn.

Get it?
In any direction.
More like a ball than a wheel
If you build a craft you sit inside a sphere.
And turn without turning.
Yeah maybe not.
But if not, then we are missing some physics.
Because I think our current understanding means this should work.  "Spooky movement without moving" is equivalent to teleportation.

Thus, I think the secret of Quantum Entanglement is hidden in the Quantum Wheel.

That's all for now.

:).

 Awesomeness?

More details to follow. Let us know what you think.

from: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1040956.msg17843442#msg17843442

I have a couple questions to put out to the community about some updates happening in the next wallet update (core 0.10.x).

I would like to implement the BIP32 support into BATA.
Quote
The Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) key creation and transfer protocol (BIP32), which allows creating child keys from parent keys in a hierarchy. Wallets using the HD protocol are called HD wallets.

https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0032.mediawiki
https://bitcoin.org/en/glossary/hd-protocol

These types of addresses have a particular prefix at the start of the address.

Code:
EXT_SECRET_KEY, EXT_PUBLIC_KEY # Network                 : Prefixes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # BTC  Bitcoin    mainnet : xprv / xpub

0x3A8061A0,     0x3A805837     # DRK  Darkcoin   testnet : DRKV / DRKP
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # VIA  Viacoin    mainnet : xprv / xpub
0x04358394,     0x043587CF     # VIA  Viacoin    testnet : tprv / tpub
0x02FD3955,     0x02FD3929     # DOGE Dogecoin   mainnet : dogv / dogp
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # VTC  Vertcoin   mainnet : vtcv / vtcp
0x02CFBF60,     0x02CFBEDE     # BC   Blackcoin  mainnet : bcpv / bcpb
0x03A04DB7,     0x03A04D8B     # MEC  Megacoin   mainnet : mecv / mecp
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # MYR  Myriadcoin mainnet : myrv / myrp
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # UNO  Unobtanium mainnet : unov / unop
0x037A6460,     0x037A689A     # JBS  Jumbucks   mainnet : jprv / jpub
0x0488ADE4,     0x0488B21E     # MZC  Mazacoin   mainnet : xprv / xpub

For BATA I propose mainnet : Bprv / Bpub

I am open to any suggestions.

If we are in agreement I will spend the time to find the proper byte sequence to generate the HD addresses.

Hi - It is nice to see this project getting some much deserved interest. It has been clear to me for some time that the fundamentals behind this coin are very strong; strong support from miners, fair distribution, low supply and active founder looking to improve and launch new features.

The questions now are around what does the future hold?? We know that there has been some work conducted on a blockchain upgrade to convert to a POS/POW Hybrid with supernodes and that there is now interest from a start up project (EntangleIT) to collaborate on nthCoin (https://github.com/nthCoin/nthCoin/blob/master/README.md) which is under development.

So some question I have are:

1. When is the POS/POW upgrade likely to take place?
2. How many BTA will be required to run a supernode?
3. What will the interest rate be?
4. How will staking rewards be calculated
5. What are the likely synergies that can be created with EntangleIT 
6. Any other news to look forward to this year

Thank you in advanced for your reply.

Skuff

Sorry for the delay in response and thanks for contacting me to prompt me to reply.

Thanks for the questions I will answer it as best as possible because I need the ok to go ahead and release information regarding EntangleIT.


1. POS/POW update will be soon, I cannot give an exact date as Midnight Miner is the process.
2. Supernode the exact number will be released when POW/POS Hybrid is released.
3. Interest rate aiming at 5%
4. Staking rewards calcuation: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbIs8NQrgHyhYMFcNR0h7IhbEze0xuoM_WplpDYaNyk/edit?usp=sharing (not final copy)
5. EntangleIT will empower cryptocurrencies do be able to complete tasks.
6. Barter Platform & App.

If Midnight has anything to add please do so.

Update on PoW/PoS Hydrid by Dev support:

Just an update on how things are progressing.  This is by no means an attempt to pump the price with fake news.

DISCLAIMER:  Nothing will be released in the next week or two, it may take possibly a month or two, depending on my personal schedule.

I am working on the core 0.10 update to the Bata wallet code.  If you look at the node list at http://bata.midnightminer.net/network (set it to show 100 entries) and you will see a client running Satoshi:0.10.4

That is the current development code under test.  I am waiting for some more equipment to arrive to perform more testing on the wallet code.

Before we migrate to Hybrid Pow/Pos wallet I need to perform more testing not only on the new core, but on the new model that we will be attempting to implement.  It is a new type of PoS model that is not currently used (as far as I have researched).  I would like to make sure it works before we release it to the network.

Please be patient on the next release. I would like to only do it once, and not have to release fixes for unforeseen bugs.  A poorly released hard-fork on a popular or up and coming coin such as Bata could definitely affect its project and future value.

I am configuring 2 separate test networks.
 - 1st network is an official managed Testnet to test all changes to the wallet code from this next release and future releases.
 - 2nd network will be to test the new Hybrid PoW/PoS wallet code.  That will require several 7-30 day trials to ensure the new PoS model is operating properly.

More updates to come as things progress.

RE: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1040956.new#new

The need for self-regulation of Bitcoin Derivatives

Today, the world's first Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) was officially rejected after seeking SEC approval. This can be seen as a major set-back for anyone else seeking to implement Bitcoin in modern financial markets. Others, can view this opportunity to re-evaluate the current situation and all factors involved and simply create something better.

"The commission ultimately concluded that the price of Bitcoin is still too vulnerable to manipulation for it to be certified. “Regulated markets related to the underlying asset provide a ‘necessary deterrent to manipulation,’” the commission wrote in its analysis. “To the extent there is some question as to the degree to which Bitcoin is subject to manipulation... regulated markets relating to Bitcoin would help answer that question and address instances of such manipulation. Two other ETF proposals pending before the SEC, and there are significant differences that might allow either one to succeed” - TheVerge.com

Those whom been involved with Bitcoin for quite a few years can all agree on one thing: Bitcoin has been like the "wild-west" on steroids. Most of us can vividly remember exchanges going bankrupt after thieves broke into their servers and stole all the coins, investment funds that became ponzi schemes, and price manipulations by malicious miners and robotic traders. This wild ride has shaken, stirred, and affected investor confidence that could have supported a positive SEC assessment. 

Truth be known: the SEC and other financial regulators are desperately trying to keep up with the ever changing crypto-currency ecosystem. This complex independent peer to peer economic model conflicts with their own  ideologies focusing more on centralized oversight rather than consensus among those involved within the industry. Most Bankers are only beginning to understand Bitcoin, the Block-chain, peer to peer networks, and how these concepts can transform finances for many generations to come. Pioneering Bitcoin users, realize the risks involved and already understand that any oversight from regulating agencies won't affect their own confidence in protecting themselves with market risks. Some enthusiasts actually fear industry regulation due to a threat of negative interference in what most view as a true free-market. The concept of a free-market having regulation is viewed as somewhat of a contradiction by some people, although nearly everyone can agree that some kind of government oversight is required for mass-adoption and integration into the current system.

Controlling Money Laundering, Fraud and Terrorism activities has been the general mission for current regulating agencies, their focus has been directed towards the large exchange platforms and services. Yes, they should be a priority, although the effectiveness can be argued since the very foundation of fiat money is unlimited untraceable units of wealth, this undermines the transparent and limited supply ideology of Bitcoin. Simply asking for and verifying passport and identification documents will never fully stop criminal activities using Bitcoin. The problem is not born from a "new age" payment method; Digital currencies using very advanced cryptographic encryption along with algorithms for controlling inflation, payment processing, and transaction fees... The problem is the current financial system.

A new approach of self-regulation and education regarding digital commodities/currencies and their derivatives is the only way to move new concepts forward by minimizing risks involved.

Beginning at the protocol level for crypto-coins; implementing a user-based voting system should become priority in the future. If account addresses can be rated by users of the network to publicly display the potential risks involved in dealing with certain merchants, exchanges, or users on the network this could allow for simple due diligence to be performed and prevent fraud. Decreasing the resources used for regulating by centralized third-party oversight formed as "regulating agencies". A simple self-regulating protocol with transparent integrity checking will automatically assist legal proceedings of criminal activities warranting investigation or prosecution.

Regulating ETF and other crypto-coin derivatives & investment assets is a very difficult task to accomplish. If this can be achieved; it would most certainly be a positive thing for Bitcoin. In our most humble opinions: Bitcoin and related investments should not be traded on the major markets alongside ETF or considerably safe hedge funds or labeled as such. A new "side-market" should be designed and implemented with caution, one that embraces the fundamental transparency of block-chain technology. As described above: a user-based voting system for accounts should also be implemented, along with a proprietary method for pricing shares based on real performance of companies or hedge funds, and backing their non-speculative worth using digital commodities like Bitcoin and BATA. Profit Hunters Club is currently working very hard to create the foundation required to move these experimental technologies further ahead and allow them to have a greater impact upon global financial markets and e-commerce in general.

RE: NthCoin - EntangleIT https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1783254.0

posted by pc888 (Myself)

I am posting on behalf of Rick who I spoke with a few days ago via phone.

I'm going to make nthcoin a BIP instead to avoid competition and confusion.


From : https://github.com/Auxon/nthCoin#nthcoin---a-cryptocurrency-for-creating-a-distributed-blockchain-of-blockchains---a-meta-blockchain


nthCoin - A cryptocurrency for creating a distributed blockchain of blockchains - a meta-blockchain.

Future Home: http://nthco.in (under development)

Conceptual Overview

Cryptocurrencies are designed to support private, secure, reliable, transparent, and trustless transfer of value, or more generally, any information, from one medium to another. The importance of cryptocurrency and p2p distributed ledgers

blockchains - cannot be over stated. It is a fundamentally important breakthrough. However, despite being a revolutionary breakthrough, cryptocurrency has some very difficult challenges ahead.
Due to vast amount of money to be made, there is a new altcoin or scamcoin created almost every day, it seems. Even in the case of Bitcoin, there are still remaining attack vectors, most obvious at this time is the trust put in the developers.

This will become increasingly important problem to address, or mass adoption of cryptocurrencies will stall, and rise and fall with endless pump and dumps and bubbles and crashes. I have no doubt that someday these problems will be solved, or at least mitigated enough that any potential vunerability is detectable, and correctable.

nthCoin will help solve this problem by creating an audit trail of other blockchains, and correlating any exchanges between them, detecting inconsistencies between and within the blockchains, and a method by which to record the history of cryptocurrencies as a whole. This history would expand the possibilies of blockchain technologies, by providing metadata to analyze the "weather" of value, allowing us to visualize and predict the flow of value and information at various levels of abstraction.

Recursive Chains

Generation of recursive chains would be interesting to explore.

Antichains

Blockchain Healing

By implementing a standards based API, nodes can request healing from nthCoin by generation of proxy tokens pinned to the healing coins value, to take over the corrupted blockchain transactions. If and when recovery of the corrupted blockchain is completed, the proxy tokens are burned in conversion back into the original cryptocurrency. If recovery is not possible, or the altcoin is fundamentally flawed and no longer safe to use, then the tokens are converted into Bitcoin, or other high-difficulty, known good, cryptocurrencies.

auxon0 Update:

As posted by pc888, just above, I've decided that nthCoin should be a Bitcoin BIP instead, to avoid competition and confusion.  The purpose of nthCoin is to help Bitcoin and other coins, not hinder them, or take anything away from them, but to help with fraud and the pain of losing your funds with no means of recovery, forever.  So, it makes more sense, after a lot of consideration, to build the concepts of nthCoin into Bitcoin.

Since I really believe the Core code base needs to be refactored into a monadic design, I will do what I can do to refactor Core, and then will do what I can do to help Satoshi Nakamoto implement a Tobin Tax as he has in mind to implement a form of Universal Basic Income using Bitcoin.

So, there's not going to be any premine, or anything like that, instead it's going to be integrated into Bitcoin itself.  I hope to work more closely with Satoshi to implement the UBI, and have started talking to him about issues of identity, and how he envisions the secondary blockchain that holds the unique wallet addresses for individuals. 

Cheers,

Richard Anthony Hein

BTA is now coming up to the time where we are going to move towards the main goal of creating a Barter Platform.

I will now start working on a whitepaper as I know have the contacts to implement the platform in the real world, from day one.



An ICO will be required so BTA to achieve it's goals. More information will be provided once whitepaper is released.



The video link is about "Bartercard" https://youtu.be/ggya9tYjnlI

We intended to do this, decentralised and blockchain based.

Keep tuned.

Below is a press release that we have posted on social media and will be submitting elsewhere.
------------------------------------------------

PRESS RELEASE

APRIL 4th  2017


Our vision is to create a new system of commerce that will create new jobs for an information based economy, and to help break away from the current system of debt based money.

BBP | Bata Barter Platform. We are changing commerce for the better.

BBP| Bata Barter Platform, Exchange, and Marketplace represent a transformative vision of the future of commerce, with the goal of removing the greatest pain points in the lives of sellers and buyers of goods and services.  Providing unique interfaces, tools and automation features for traders of goods and services, commerce will be redefined by Bata.  Users will more easily participate in barter as means of trade, while also allowing traditional buying and selling, and adding a system of incentives and leverage to traders and users in unique ways.  It will build up a new form of trading community around the Exchange and Marketplace, and bring value to the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem.


Traditional Barter Platform vs. BBP

Bartering helps you exchange goods or services at once, without money. It has no limits and can be done both on a very small-scale and on an exceedingly larger-scale. The arrangements are under the control of member-only associations, with credit units the channel of exchange, (other terms like trade exchange, barter exchange and countertrade exchange). To explain the channel of exchange, different terms like credits, units, barter dollars or trade dollars are being used. As the medium of exchange, the term which is mostly used is trade dollar.

Looking deeper into barter deals there is huge difference between direct barter and exchange barter. In return barter, you may use your capacity, inventory or excess time to trade for goods and services you need. For such deals, you don’t need money as long as you are part of a barter group with other businesses. Each business earns trade dollars which can be employed for the exchange of the things you want. Direct barter means to swap the service or product for the service of your seller.



The scale of the projects required three white papers outlining the implementation.

White Paper One - BBP | Bata Barter Platform

White Paper Two - PoW / PoS Hybrid

BTA’s transformation from a Proof of Work Scrypt based cryptocurrency to a POW / POS Hybrid and the introduction of Uber-Nodes, our version of a “Masternode”.

BTA’s growth has been organic, much like Bitcoin, with no funding or premine and established late April of 2015.

White Paper Three - Profit Shares /  Internal Exchange

BBP will offer Profit shares and run an internal exchange which will also have numerous functions including exchanging BTA for TRADE, Profit Shares and help generate funds.


It’s still early and we want to get feedback from the community, early and often.
We are getting the vision, whitepapers and roadmap out to the world now, because we need the best developers in the world to come help build the best commerce system in the world, built on blockchain technology with Bitcoin at the base of it all.

For more information or updates join the BTA Slack.

We are mentioned by BraveNewCoin - https://t.co/AVEqPwIteU


"Bata (BTA) is a currency that has been developed to replace trade dollars in traditional Barter Systems.

The team have recently announced their new project, Bata Barter Platform (BBP). The BBP will be built on the Stratis Platform utilizing C# on the .NET Core open source framework.

BTA will transform from a Proof of Work Scrypt based cryptocurrency to a PoW-PoS Hybrid,  with the introduction of Uber-Nodes, their version of a “Masternode”.
Bata (BTA) spot price opened the week at $0.03058187 closing at $0.07870948, up 157.37%."


in same article Stratis mentioned:


"Stratis (STRAT) is a blockchain as a service (BaaS) platform. Stratis blockchain apps can be developed in pure C# and can also utilize the Microsoft .NET framework.

Stratis will be built on nBitcoin, a comprehensive Bitcoin library for the .NET framework. The team will develop the bitcoin version of nBitcoin while also creating their own nStratis version.

Stratis (STRAT) spot price opened the week at $0.19831309 closing at $0.45710808, up 130.49%."

A video made by Bartercard - https://youtu.be/YzGkED8f1w0

The video will explain what a barter system is and the benefits of it.

BBP - Bata Barter Platform will use BTA as the replacement of a Barter Trade Dollar.

We are creating our version of a Traditional Barter Platform.

The difference will be:

A Barter Platform that is decentralised. BTA is decentralised and not controlled or issued by the platform like a Barter Trade Dollar is.

I thought I might share a post from Slack:
---------------------------------------------------------
I thought of you when I read this quote from "Halved" by Daniel Crowbridge -

"“I remembered a Comparative Economic Systems class I audited in college. They explained why the Russians failed at economic planning under their Communist regime in the 1950’s. They didn’t have the information processing power. They got out the old accounting paper and tried to map the inputs and outputs of their economy. But, they couldn’t handle any changes. When a drought or other major event affected their inputs, the problem would ripple through the system. The system was not agile enough to adjust. The twentieth century form of communist economic planning could not match the capitalist free market system’s agility. Our Sprotak Planner, fully integrates the hands of the silent majority. It has allowed us to manipulate the stock market and create a massive shift in wealth to the underground youth revolution. “The majority of people acting for the majority expectation have allowed us to more effectively run the country,”said Janice excitedly. “It’s communism,”I said. “But, I like it.”“It is Communism in the sense that it provides the greater good for the whole population,”said Simyan. “But, it is better than the commie system because it is not dictated by a small authoritarian regime. Rather, the will of the participants is adjusted in real time through the Sprotak feedback matrices. It empowers the individual by requiring them to participate equitably based upon their ability to contribute.”“The matrix handicaps each individual’s contribution. It finds them work based upon their skill set and factors their wage based upon their contribution,”added Simyan. “Work is priced like they value Over-The-Counter Stocks. The supply of labor is identified at every wage level and supply is matched up with demand until the market clears. A minimum wage threshold is necessary. But, we have found that the improved efficiencies and increased production justify the minimum wage. In fact, the most productive participants produce more, because they are recognized and credited for their proficiency. Bartering is engaged whenever possible. Sprotak has become an effective social program as well as an economic planning model.”“Is it all free?”I asked. “Nothing is free,”said Simyan. “Freeloaders don’t benefit. The system keeps track of our needs and contributions. Your contribution is then automatically factored into your relative wage and barter account. Money is no longer necessary in our barter system and income tax is functionally obsolete. It has all become digital. Digital resumes have become task oriented, quantified descriptions of an individual’s ability. Ratings are assessed and worker proficiency is guaranteed. Possible jobs and career paths are recommended. Available local jobs are matched and emailed to the participants to bid upon. A grand barter matrix is constantly updated based upon supply and demand. If something needs to be done the wage for doing the work is adjusted daily. Jobs are bid in real time based upon an over the counter market clearing software system.”“Sprotak allows the silent majority to scrub the internet for the set of existing expectations, tap the cognitive surplus of computer users, and create non-zero sum games that set up the synergy to advance the expectations of the silent majority and engage them in an equitable economy. The results have been astounding.”"

This was a quote from the author of the Halved. Who reached out to BTA via Bata.io

"Please read my book Halved, by Daniel Crowbridge in which I describe a second-generation computer-based barter system using real-time price discovery based upon supply and demand of goods and services. A pricing mechanism much like the over-the-counter market can be employed in a matrix of jobs and goods where  workers provide qualified/experience based resumes and job postings clear the market as prices adjust. The actual medium of exchange can be anything but the system needs the ability to store and convert wealth as you know.  The efficiencies provided by a real-time pricing Matrix is the key to full employment and increased economic efficiency, our only way out of this fiat currency mess."

So this week, Development is going over the changes is wallet 0.10.4 and preparing for release.

Core 0.10 code means faster wallet updating and stability for building our future features.

Lastly we will be making the wallet more cosmetic appealing.

Then we compile on Linux, Windows, Mac, RaspPi ready for release.

We are looking to release the updated wallet before the end of the month.

Yobit update - I submitted another ticket today, this time via [email protected] and they advised me that Development had not contacted them to update the wallet (even though I have been submitting tickets). I replied telling them that they were communicating with development. I followed their instruction and resubmitted via coin maintenance to update our source code.   Keep in mind our source code has not been updated yet, therefore I cannot see why they would require an update to take the wallet out of maintenance mode. I advised them that 10 other exchanges have no issue and nor have they ever. For the sake of Yobit users, I hope to see this issue resolved asap.

CAUTION - YOBIT.NET - EXCHANGE

I have contacted Yobit 6 times regarding our wallet in maintenance mode - 4 tickets and 2 via [email protected]

If I knew it would not hurt people with BTA I would ask for BTA to be delisted immediately due to the lack of competence shown by Yobit Support.

I submitted a maintenance ticket just recently. We will be not extorted into paying a fee to get our wallet out of maintenance mode, the code is open source and we have not done a wallet upgrade recently.

I have many questions still unanswered because Yobit sends a reply to your ticket, without addressing the question. If you reply to the ticket you do not get a response.

It has become obvious to me that Yobit is not part of BTA's future and does not want to be either.

If Yobit admin is seeing this, please feel free to respond.

The choice is up to the community.

A question came up regarding the relationship between BTA and BBP. Let me explain briefly - ultimately a traditional Barter System has a line of credit - a debt based one. BBP is a Barter System replacing the line of credit with a decentralised currency - BTA. In addition a traditional Barter System does not allow you to cash out, leverage or trade on multiple exchanges - where BBP does.

Core update 0.10.4 will be released Sunday - depending on what timezone you live in.

BBP - Bata Barter Platform has been worked on by Development, so we can present a basic framework before we enter the stage of funding for it.

V1 Profit Share developments are getting closer to release - I will advise (or Development team) a date for release once fully tested.

Title: Re: BATA | BTA ◈ POW/POS HYBRID ◈ MASTERNODES ◈ PROFIT SHARE ◈ BBP ◈ UBERNODES
Post by: CryptoOz on May 02, 2017, 10:31:07 AM
Dev update:

We announced a plan to implement Masternodes and the amount to activate a Masternode, as a fair notice to all those interested in Bata, to have the equal chance to collect enough funds to prepare for the future release that will activate Masternodes.

Implementing Masternodes properly and fairly, means adjustments to the economics and rewards for the coin ecosystem.  We plan not to suddenly implement changes in wallet releases to give hidden advantages to others.  This is still a community driven project (there is no development fund, no ICO, or reward tax on PoW rewards), so your input does count.  The value of this coin is driven by the community response to the value of the development being built for this coin.  This also means, the development team is investing in the development before the rewards are realized.  So, there is a slower and cautious development happening as we are not spending other people's money, but our own.

A little reminder on what is really happening behind the development scenes.

Source code / Wallet update.


Source code commit had a few conflicts, so I just waiting for them to be amended before merging on Github. So we a little off schedule, but it won't be long now.

Once completed, I will advise the exchanges so they can update their exchange wallets.

Happy Birthday Bata!

What about a birthday giveaway at: https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?board=2.0 ?

You could spread some coins to those who are up to tweet or post about bata birthday on the socials. Or retweet your own message...

If you want to do so, I just recommend to open the giveaway to members only to avoid cheaters.

Unfortunately still no response from YObit. I have submitted 2x via Dev Maintenance request and one support ticket since core v0.10.4 has been released. Hopefully they respond.

Profit Shares Platform v1.0


Profit Shares Platform is a closed-source conceptual network used to self-regulate “cryptomarkets”,

They can be considered a “controlled” alternative to exchange tokens. These will never become volatile digital assets and remain secured using cryptography. They remain 100% backed at all times by a secondary blockchain asset such as BTC, BTA, ETH and STRAT. Crowdfunding BATA projects using non-expiring, liquid capital profit shares.

Profit Shares can offer liquid, stable and consistent returns for investors. In the next few months will be inviting the public to try our beta platform and contribute to the growth of BATA. Feel free post any questions, comments or feedback here and take a look at a limited Graphical User interface preview located at https://shares.bata.io/admin/

RE Profit Shares:

The shares are mathematically controlled to prevent crashing. Price per share  = fund balance / total shares

The community decides on their price movements and thus controls their volatility by allowing the fund administrators (or in the future - smart contracts) to remove funds for development use or require new business profits to be distributed with share holders. This unique and transparent system is still in experimental and development stages. We fully welcome all questions or new ideas.

Hello everyone, I will be removing any reference to Yobit off Bata.io and contacting CoinGecko, Coinmarketcap and Worldcoinindex to remove off their websites. Yobit has not responded to my support requests and any message whether it be via BCT, Twitter etc. If anyone has any ideas or wants me to set up a donation address to PAY YOBIT to do something, let me know.

Added the information below to FAQ download on https://bata.io/development
-------------------------

Can Profit Shares Platform be compared to a bond market for Crypto projects? (if it is more like shares, what is the difference between the assets on profit shares platform and a new token?)

In some ways, yes a Bond and Profit Share have similarities. The Profit Share will be represented using a Dynamic Token asset. They can be considered smart-contracts with unlimited potential in terms of technical functionality and financial liquidity. Each Profit Share token will fully represent an existing digital or physical asset such as Bitcoin, BTA, bullion or even fiat currency. Essentially - they're an external method for representing something of value using crypto-signatures. In the use of a Profit Share, they become a digital loan contract with static or dynamic capabilities for return rates, terms of repayment and even controlling liquid venture capital by multiple entities.

What are the requirements to host a primary or a secondary node?

To host a primary node for Profit Shares: will require a web-server running PHP, and general web-development experience. Secondary nodes will be compatible with Desktop, Tablet, Mobile and other devices. No coins will be required to run these services - if you're running a primary node then you have the ability to charge user-fees on your own terms. We're going the let the free-market decide ROI on running network nodes for Profit Shares, There will be no direct network fees implemented during the initial launch but this feature may be introduced in the future depending on community developments.

To stake Bata once Hybrid PoW/PoS is implemented 1000 BTA is required. Staking will give effectively give 5% interest per annum. Example of rewards can be found here: https://bata.money/downloads/BataRewards.pdf

To operate a Masternode 10000 BTA is required. More details on ROI will be provided and will be made available on https://bata.io/development.

BBP Unbernodes ROI have not been confirmed.


Will street shares be hosted on Ethereum or the StratisPlatform? (If so what is the role of the nodes? To my knowledge the node system (like x11?) has not been implemented on Ethereum smart contracts)

The BATA development team will be introducing our own side-chain framework that will allow for ease of integration for existing blockchain technologies, and standardizing new application developments for cross-platform development. More information https://github.com/BiznatchEnterprises/BlockchainFramework

Do you have any wire frames of the GIU interface or Profit shares platform?

BTA Development recently has set up a mining pool. Which we will be using as preferred mining pool. Fees are 0.5%.

We must ensure that we maintain the hashrate for security of the network. Our Hybrid is still on the way, which will strengthen the security of the network, but until then we still need to keep mining.

Development on the BTA PoW/PoS Hybrid is aiming to complete before block 700k (which we estimate at current hashrate will take 22 days to reach.)

Profit Shares update:

Sorry for the delays, extensive testing is under-way. Also some recent new improvements are being implemented that will attempt to diversify Profit Share funds between multiple administrators for safety, as well as assist the BTA network maintain network integrity. More updates will be released here very soon... thanks for your patience!

A number of POW cryptocurrencies have attacked recently with a 51% attack.

We were hit first time and lost a small number of BTA. Bittrex noticing put our wallet into maintenance mode, which we thank them for. We decided to lift the number of confirmations and put the wallet back online.

More coins started to get attacked, with much higher confirmations, so Bittrex proactively put our wallet into maintenance before we were attacked again.

For an attack to be worth the time and money, the reward must also be high. We since actively been monitoring the hashrate of each pool and maintaining our own pool with higher hash rates  than any pool approaching the 50% mark. Just over a Bitcoin of hash rentals has been spent since attack to ensure the network security is maintained.

We have created a second pool which we will also be maintaining.

In addition I have ordered mining hardware to the value of just under $10k USD, but must wait for delivery.

We are fast tracking Hybrid Pow/Pos, which the goal is to have in place before block 700k - which is estimated at 20 days or so. This will ensure that BTA cannot be targeted by a 51% attack and strengthen security.

We also decided that we did not need the extra attention, making ourselves a target again, so Profit Shares release has been delayed until July approximately.

Bittrex suggested that we keep the BTA wallet in maintenance mode until we release Hybrid due to the rate that other blockchains are being attacked.

The team would have to agree with the suggestion. We do not want to compromise anyone's BTA that is held on Bittrex.

We are maintaining the hashrate and Midnightminer is working hard on the Hybrid. An update on progress will be made at the end of the week.

Information regarding Masternodes will also be made available at the end of the week.

Last but certainly not the least, an update on Profit Shares (release has been purposely held back due to current events) by the end of the week.

Development Update via Slack:

by Midnightminer

An update on the development:
Most of the wallet is updated to Core 0.12 to keep up to the changes implemented in Bitcoin and other coins such as Dash, PIVX, etc that have Masternodes.
The current issue is the mining or Block Generation code.  Having some issues at the moment.  I hope to resolve over the next few days.

Target for this week will be a Core 0.12 wallet successfully compiled and ready for testing on the weekend.
Next week will be integration of PoW/PoS.
Following this will be Masternode integration testing.

This will allow users to purchase & create bond like financial instruments using blockchain technologies. Variable, programmable investment terms and flexible rates of return can be created using a new technology for smart-contracts. Profit Shares can generate a yield to the holder of these instruments and provide a transparent, affordable, easy to use platform for investment funds, businesses and even governments. One can think of the Profit Shares Platform like an ultra advanced version of kickstarter while integrating peer to peer exchanges for digital financial assets.

Multiple forms of payment can be integrated within the platform. Automated transaction processing within a timely manner, allows the network to function in real-time ecommerce industries.

All Bata Core 0.10.4.1 wallets include Bitcoin Firewall 1.0 – Alpha –  uses a very unique method for detecting potential hard-fork attacks coupled with specific block chain DDoS flooding. All connected nodes/peers are examined by the amount of data they’re sending or receiving from a peer with the firewall enabled. If bandwidth usage is greater than the limits set the connecting node is further examined to verify their blockchain start height is within safe limits of the average among all peers connected. Range based blockchain checkpoints that use averages of live blockchain sizes further enhance security by limiting potential attacks known as >51% of distributed hashing power.

Once a potential attack is detected the connected node/peer is forcefully terminated and added to a session blacklist. Configuration options, as well as long-term blacklist storage and future sharing among peers will be implemented during future developments.

Bata Core 0.10.4.1 wallets available now:

Posted first in BTA Slack:

Soon we will release v2 Roadmap which will be amended to provide an accurate estimation for  projects. We had a small set back which put a spanner in the works, which has been addressed. Pos / Pow Hybrid is planned to being the testing stage early August. Once testing is completed Hybrid will be released. As stated in a previous post Masternode code at this time will be coded but not active.
Releasing at around the same time pending testing is completed Profit Shares Platform will also be released. So a busy time for the dev team coming up to the end of the month.
Keep an eye out for the updated roadmap.

Profit Shares can be considered a mathematically “controlled” alternative to exchange tokens. These will never become volatile digital assets and remain secured using cryptography. They remain 100% backed at all times by a secondary blockchain asset, or liquid capital verified at a registered
financial institution or other means of liquidity. They're designed to create sustainable returns that will attract new capital from users of the
Profit Shares Platform. They provide variable rates of return (ROI) for a predetermined length or indefinite period of time. Other programming criteria can be attached and extend the functionality of each share, a truly dynamic asset for multiple uses. Launching exclusively with BATA early August 2017.

Something worth pointing out as there seems to be some confusion with newer community:

1. Hybrid PoW/PoS means the we will still have Proof of Work (Mining Scrypt Algo) side by side running with Proof of Stake. Not Stopping PoW and having only PoS.

2. Rewards for PoS are obtained by staking 1000 BTA in your wallet. (No Masternode required). For Staking info visit https://bata.io/development

3. With Hybrid release 5 million BTA will be mined or staked over 10 years.

4. Masternodes require 10000 BTA. One function will be to provide a security for instant transactions. Instant fees will also go towards MN rewards.

5. BTA core updates allow us to add features of litecoin, such as Segwit in future upgrades.

6. Bata has only ever had organic growth, which has been achieved with no premine, no crowdfund , no ICO or any VC investment. Bata is truly decentralised and not owned by
   anyone.

Bitcoin Firewall Whitepaper now available!

World’s first implementation of connections firewall & artificially intelligent attack detection in Bata (BTA) Cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin Firewall 1.1

Developed by Justin Percy — Bata Development

Why a firewall?
Bitcoin Firewall 1.1 uses a very unique method for detecting potential hard-fork attacks, coupled with dynamic block chain DDoS flooding. All connected nodes/peers are examined using a dynamic rule set. By quickly avoiding long-term acceptance of malicious commands and transactions, Bitcoin based developers of cryptocoins can easily mitigates risks involved with low network hash-rates, and the costs involved with attempting to maintain the majority of network hashing.
If rule set criteria are met, the connecting node is further examined to verify that their blockchain start height is within safe limits of the average among all peers connected. Range based dynamic blockchain checkpoints implementing averages instead of static heights, further enhance network security by limiting potential attacks known as “more than 51% of distributed hashing power”. Once a potential attack is detected: the connected node/peer is forcefully terminated and added to a session blacklist and immediately refused future connections. This can be considered a temporary session break, for safety.
>51% majority hash-power attack
Mining new coins requires consensus among all nodes on the network to agree upon validation of new blocks containing existing (spent) confirmed transactions. Mining pools compute new hash values and send the data to the network via the nodes, eventually showing up in a client wallet. This process is very complex and requires all peers to cooperate by confirming and transferring funds safely among all participants of the network efficiently. Attackers are modifying open source wallets with sophisticated changes. These can alter the performance of ALL nodes and peers, and thus the consensus among them as well. This could become detrimental enough, similar to a distributed denial of service attack; Possibly for a short period of time, enough to lower the security of all nodes and peers and successfully by-pass all check-sum algorithms for spending confirmed funds twice.

Sounds interesting? To read the full whitepaper download http://bata.money/downloads/Bitcoin_Firewall%20_1.1.pdf (http://bata.money/downloads/Bitcoin_Firewall%20_1.1.pdf). or via bata.io/development

Posted in Slack by Midnightminer:

"an update on the wallet development.  I pushed ahead of myself and intergrated Masternode and Hybrid code together to speed up the development and release of features... I messed up the codebase a little too far. So I need to roll back some of my changes and strip down the code back to Masternode and PoW.  Get that masternode version ready for testing for next week. 

The coding completed to date is not lost, I need to implement it into the wallet in steps and extend the development time line for adding other features such as Hybrid PoS.

Some of the delay is avoiding some of the wallet and security issues that are happening in other coins.  Other delays are me distracted by real-life tasks and activities"

For the non slack members and Bitcoin Garden community, below is a copy of some updates posted in Bata Slack:

Bata Dev - Midnightminer:

The last few days I was working with other coins with Masternode configurations.  I set-up a couple different wallets and masternodes to go through the configuration process.

I can say that it was an interesting exercise.  It seems almost every type of wallet has different ways of configuring Masternodes. 

I am now looking into how we can simplify or find the most suitable way to setup Masternodes in Bata.

A proposal has come up in our planning and development discussions, that, instead of adding a development tax/fee like DASH and other coins we would use some of the develops funds to set up masternodes to put into the development wallets.

Looking for feedback from the community on ideas.  This will not generate as much funds for the development but this does keep Bata more decentralized.  Having a development fee going to wallets written into the wallet code is not a truely decentralized system.

Any thoughts?
----------------------------------


Response from BTA Slack member:

You would need to somehow "limit" the number of masternodes the core team operates, otherwise you'll end up in the same situation DASH found themselves in where Evan Duffield (and the rest of the CORE dash team at the time) controlled a majority of the Masternodes and could pass or reject any proposal presented.  That has since been rectified by Duffield turning down all his MN's as part of him taking an advisory role to the DASH DAO.
I don't see that the standard MN model is excessive in anyway.  45% MN.  45% miners.  10% foundation.
----------------------------------


Response from BTA Slack member:

When the masternodes comes out, bata will still be mineable right?
----------------------------------


Midnightminer:

First release of Masternodes will be with PoW only.  PoS will be integrated later.

I see your point, and I have considered that.  Between the 3 core developers hold just under 15% of the coins.  At most we could have 70 masternodes of a theoretical 500 ( I see 200 MN max) so we may could be close to >50% as a group. 

I am looking at a standpoint of decentralization.  Even if we say we have no intention of influencing a vote, there is always the possibility of someone using their position to steer things to their advantage.

But the same goes for the development fund as a 10% fee on the rewards.  If we hold the keys to the funds, votes are not really enforced by the code, the community would still be relying on the key holders of those wallets.

That is why I put the idea out to the community.  I need different views on the possible situations.
----------------------------------


Response from BTA Slack member:

thanks for the answer. I have another question, total BTA supply is 5 million coins if I'm not mistaken, right now we are at 4.9mil coins, how will the Masternodes work after that?
----------------------------------


Midnightminer:

The coin supply will be expanded to 10 Mil over the next 10 yrs.

The primary goal is to support the Barter Platform and trade for goods.  Since pure PoW coins are open to certain exploits, we are moving to Masternodes to secure the network.  Hybrid PoW/PoS to to add more security and stability to the coin.  With these additions we need to compensate the contribution of resources, so the extension of the coin supply.  However, to keep the focus on liquidity and a coin that is used for trade, the rewards for PoS are low compared to most coins (5.2% per annum), the the masternodes will be slightly higher.  Bata is not designed to be a bag holding coin, or a store of value.  It was designed for trade.
----------------------------------


Response from BTA Slack member:


if you look at pivx they are pos but they have yearly inflation that doesnt end

just trying to figure out how the team is going to tackle the masternode agenda
----------------------------------


Midnightminer:


I am very familiar with PIVX.  I like what the coin is trying to do, but we are not in the same market.
----------------------------------

Response from BTA Slack member:

Yes I understand the market is different, I was referring to the structure. When I asked what would happen if we hit 5 mill coins, you said it would be raised to 10. Then what happens if when we hit 10 mil coins, it will be raised to 15? If that is the case, why not design it like pivx so that it's ongoing and the community and investors know what to expect. Just my opinion, it is your project and you can point it to whichever way you like. I'm just thinking long term.
----------------------------------


Midnightminer:

The current model I am using to build the coin rewards is on the expected growth of the coin to have a value of $1000 USD value per Bata before the coin supply of 10 Mil is reached.  What happened was that during the calculations we found 5 Mil was not enough to keep the liquidity in multiple exchanges and on the Bata platform.  It is still all theory, but also looking at coins that reach there coin supply before finding there full value or a useful market, killed the coin, there was no mining or staking to keep interest.

Unlimited supply is a touchy plan at this point since there are many scam coins with huge amounts of diluted coin supply.  Our approach was to keep a limited supply, and planned an expansion with equal opportunity to participate (still no insta-mining, or ICOs in Bata).

Another point with no set limit on coin supply, that if an exploit is found to generate extra coins, that exploit would ruin all value in the system if left unbounded by coin supply.  Its a long shot, but still possible.

Statement on BTA/BTC market removal Bittrex.com

October 15, 2017 | Bata Cryptocurrency (BTA)

Bata has been traded on Bittrex since 11/20/2015.

October 3rd 2017 - a market deletion notice appeared on the Bittrex exchange for the Bata market.

Bittrex asked Bata development to explain the shares concept - referring to a testing announcement Profit Shares. Explanation was provided directly to Bittrex contacts.

Bittrex asked why Profit Shares was not considered as a security. Then proceeded to ask for a lawyer's memo.  Bittrex requested that a US Attorney was required to issue the Memorandum.

It was made clear to Bittrex that Profit Shares is an independent project from BATA. Profit Shares is not a token. It's a private crowd-funding platform.

We advised Bittrex that V1 Profit Share is not part of Bata cryptocurrency development project. This made no difference as then they proceeded to ask for a legal analysis on Bata, including clear details on how it will remain separate and independent from the Profit Shares Platform.

We advised Bittrex that if the Bata developers paid for a security analysis on Profit Shares then the Bata project would no longer be separate, but a vested or interested party. Bata is separate from Profit Shares Platform and shall remain a separate project.

After discussing with the Bata Dev team, various lawyers in Australia who also had offices in the USA, were contacted. The estimated legal expenses to initiate the process to satisfy Bittrex demands were not feasible, and there was no certainty that a positive and timely resolution would be possible.  The Bata development team along with the Bata community's support have decided that development funds would be invested in strengthening the Bata development project.

Bata is a decentralised open source cryptocurrency project.  Bata development is made up of a small  team. No development funds were ever acquired, or requested. The members of the development team provide their own time and own funds for development.

Profit Shares Platform is a closed source project under development by Biznatch Enterprises.

Please withdraw all your BTA to an official wallet or other exchange/s as previously advised.

Official wallets are available on https://bata.io/wallets

Development update:



Bata will be creating a Bata Foundation, much like the Dash Foundation.


Bata Foundation Objectives:

Support Development

Empower the Community

Educate and Promote

Represent Bata


With Masternodes on the way, we are able to achieve self funded ongoing development, which attracts developers to Bata. The team will grow and development will be faster and Bata will grow big enough to achieve it's main goal, being the Barter System's currency.

If you have any questions or something you would like to request or contribute please let us know.

Update from Midnight Miner via Discord:



For an update on those trying to follow along on Bata.  It boils down to 2 basic issues.   1) We are organizing a Non Profit Foundation to represent the community that is supporting Bata and Barter Platform.  This is the first priority for us, and we need to complete this step to continue developing both the business plan for Bata and technological development.  The political environment surrounding crypto-currencies is becoming volatile in how governments and investment securities agencies are monitoring and handling crypto-currencies in different countries and jurisdictions.   2) We are actively looking for developers to assist with the masternode migration.  Migrating this coin is taking more time and resources than I had anticipated and estimated to @pc888.  So, I am falling behind in what I promised to deliver, but we are looking for support from reputable developers that can assist and are available.  Both tasks, finding available developers and reputable ones, are proving to be a difficult task.  This does not mean development has stopped, it means that this transition is taking a lot longer than we had projected.
Probably because of so many of the scams that are happening now under the guise of cryptocurrency coins and tokens, there are many government agencies scrutinizing most projects of a certain value or popularity.  We are putting a business plan in place to ensure we are compliant and preparing a professional profile for the Bata project.  These services are all at a cost, so we are also looking for ways to cover the costs for the short-term road map.  The foundation will need funding not only for its in legal costs for its creation, but there is also the upcoming costs and budgets for development of the code base, marketing, documentation, and community support.

Anyone who is running a pool for Bata to make sure you compile from source code. Same goes for exchanges - you need to compile from source.

Reward is a static .25 now, changing from halved amount 0.09xxx, but this will not appear unless pools update.

OP has been updated.

For anyone who is having issues with no sync, please read below.


RE: Bata QT Win64 Wallet Update.


This update addresses sync issues.

Ensure that you back-up and your wallet.

Save your wallet.dat file in another location. If you lose this file you will lose your coins.

Open %appdata% folder and delete Bata Folder.  (find by going to start in windows and type in search %appdata%)

Start QT to re-sync blockchain. You will know if you have been successful if your wallet shows it is over 2 years out of sync. Now just wait or use bootstrap to sync faster.


Instructions for Bootstrap:

Updated Bootstrap: https://bata.money/downloads/BATA-bootstrap.zip

After fresh install, open QT so that it can create a new Bata Folder. Then Close QT.

Unzip the file into the same directory as the bata-qt.exe (find by going to start in windows and type in search %appdata%)

Then with a shortcut or in the command prompt:

bata-qt.exe -loadblock=bootstrap.dat

Our official date or block for PoS & Masternodes has not yet been released. Delays have occurred due various reasons, but namely due to security issues found in masternodes with other coins and that we do not want to release with the same issues.

Core 10 has proved to present it's own challenges, but we are working through them, this being the third version of Bata Masternodes on the testnet.

The Bata Foundation is looking for more developers to come on board, so get in contact if you are up to the task.

If you are a trader or hold any BTA on Bleutrade please be advised that we have been put on a list of delistment. A representative advised me that the decision was final.

Please ensure you withdraw your BTA before deadline - see notification below:

-----

Dear, user, we are sending this e-mail to report that the following cryptocurrencies will be delisted on April 25th, 2018:

BTA, BTCD, BSTY, CLAM, DGC, DP, DPC, EFL, EXP, MOON, NEOS, NVC, PPC, SLG, SLR, START, WDC, XVP, ZET

From that day on, these coins will not be able to be traded at Bleutrade platform. In case of positive balance, the withdraw may be done within 15 (fifteen) days (until May 10 th, 2018). After this term there is no commitment from Bleutrade to stock remaining balance. So Bleutrade Exchange will be able to definitely exclude the wallets.

-----

Development has identified another issue just by chance in core 8 Masternodes which allows manipulation of rewards. Issues are addressed with the extra security of core 10.

We updated to core 10 and added a firewall to protect against sophisticated 51% attacks see below:

Bitcoin Firewall uses a very unique method for detecting potential hard-fork chain-attacks coupled with specific block chain DDoS flooding. All connected nodes/peers are examined by the amount of data they're sending or receiving from a peer with the firewall enabled. If bandwidth usage is greater than the limits set, the connecting node is further examined to verify their blockchain start & sync height is within safe limits; The average among all peers connected. Range based blockchain checkpoints that use averages of live blockchain sizes further enhance security by limiting potential attacks known as >51% of distributed hashing power (double-spend, Sybil attack).
 

PoW / Pos Hybrid & Masternodes will be released once migration of code is complete and fully tested.



In preparation Bata has been added to Masternodes.online upcoming list:

Please note that I have submitted Bata to numerous exchanges, but that alone will not do. The community needs to put it's support behind requests to be added to an exchange. We have developments on the way that should make Bata more appealing to a wider audience, which will help our efforts.

We must ensure that we support the existing exchanges, whilst looking for new markets - your support is required.

With most exchanges asking for listing fees presents some barriers, but we always open to new ideas and opportunities. See email below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exchange Listing: RE email received:

Coin Submitted!
Thanks for entering your coin in the Coin Listing Competition!



You are all set to vote now. For your coin to win and top the CryptalDash Exchange Listing, reach out to your community for support. The top five coins in each phase will be listed in the CryptalDash Exchange.



There are three ways to earn points for your coin in the competition:



1. Social Shares / Refer - Your coin earns points when community members share on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Telegram, and Reddit. For social sharing, every platform or channel has its corresponding points. HERE is a detailed post on how to earn points via social shares/referral.





2. Purchasing CRD Tokens - Every $1 worth of CRD tokens purchased gives your coin 1 point. Minimum buy-in is $300. In other words, if you purchase $500,000 worth of CRD tokens via the Coin Listing Competition, your coin will earn 500,000 points.



3. Doing High Leverage Promotions - These are tasks that the coin’s core team can do. They are worth 5,000 points each. These tasks include:



Email blast to community

Embedding widget and banner on website homepage

Reddit promotion

Bitcointalk promotion

Posting a YouTube video



We will verify each of these tasks. To submit proof of promotion, you can email us or use the form in our Coin Listing Competition voting page.



 

To reiterate, the more social shares and token purchases your coin generates, the more chances your coin has at landing in the CryptalDash Exchange. So get your community involved now and get them voting.



Thanks again for registering! We’re very much excited to see your coin grow.





All the best,





Chyrrelle Pagaduan

Great news for the Bata community, I have made arrangements with a developer to fast track our Masternode & Hybrid PoW/PoS implementation into core 10. Within a week the work will be complete. No donations have been received last time I checked, therefore I am going to cover the costs personally. Any small donation will assist as the total is 2 BTC.  Be quick before the price rises if you want more Bata.

During the final due diligence concerning the "deal" I posted previously, I was unsatisfied with the programmers inability to address simple concerns brought forth from the BATA community. Although a fast track to masternodes and staking looked very promising, we have decided to continue looking for other developers to assist the BATA development team.

With 5 x Multi-algo, Masternodes and then 6th algo POS will change the make up of current rewards etc. Dynamic rewards will also be introduced into the mix. New calculations are being devised.

Example: Dynamic block reward
Block reward is based on block height and difficulty so there is no cheap to mine blocks. That's a good thing for price stability.

Dynamic masternode reward
Masternode rewards to raise with every new mined block, new coin creation will not suffer from too high of inflation and the market prices can adapt smoothly to raising masternode rewards.

Example: Dynamic block reward
Block reward is based on block height and difficulty so there is no cheap to mine blocks. That's a good thing for price stability.

Dynamic masternode reward

Masternode rewards to raise with every new mined block, new coin creation will not suffer from too high of inflation and the market prices can adapt smoothly to raising masternode rewards.

Another example for MN collateral is: Dynamic masternode collateral

Masternode collateral to raise in time so it is better to start masternode as soon as possible. That's the great opportunity for early investors and incentive to remain long-term holders.

POS will be released shortly after, if not sooner.

After various discussions, charts and scenerios we are unable to project how many miners will be mining Bata after the switch to multi-algo.
There will Dynamic block rewards (block reward is based on block height and difficulty) because of the multi-algo nature of the new wallet.

0.25 BTA will be set as the highest reward, which is configurable by spork and the limit can be disabled if need be.

update from dev - Everything tested, pull request made. I hope everything will go smooth.
We need to build wallets and then update Explorer and rebuild database to see segwit transaction with proper prefix. If explorer will be OK, then we can go to update pools. They don't need to do any changes to configuration at this stage. If pool will be working and block will be generated without problem then we can go to update exchanges.
After that we can release wallets for general public.
After that we have to wait until most of network will go to new wallet and then we can enable multialgo. Scrypt mining should go without configuration changes on all pools then. They just add other algos then.
After that we can start masternodes, etc.
Recap:
1. Accept pull request and merge repo on github.
2. Build wallets.
3. Upgrade, rebuild and test explorer(s).
4. Upgrade and test pools.
5. Upgrade and test exchanges.
6. Release wallets for general public.
7. Enable FxTC features.
8. Add another algos to pools.
9. Start masternodes.

Old wallets will fork because v2 blocks will not be backward compatible - multi algo will be enabled.

SHA256D, SCRYPT, NIST5, LYRA2Z, X11 and X16R will be Bata's multi algo.

Block rewards will be dynamic up to 0.25 BTA. That means only with enough nethash full block rewards will be mined.

What is a SPORK?
A spork is a mechanism that was unique to Dash. Now a mechanism of Bata (BTA)
It used to safely deploy new features to the network through network-level variables to avoid the risk of unintended network forking during upgrades.

Less than 500 Blocks to go!

Make sure you have updated your wallet to v0.16.2.79 or you will be on the wrong chain.

Hello everyone,

Difficulty was wrong in new algos as there were no previous blocks. We reverted back to scrypt.


Github source code has been updated (0.16.2.80) with error rectified - https://github.com/BTA-BATA/Bataoshi

Wallets will be compiled. Exchanges and pools contacted to update.

Block number to start multi algo will be decided soon. 

Please update to rectify issue.

I will be in touch to advise when spork has been executed again.


Sorry for the trouble.

FxTC core developer working in collaboration with Bata found a bug in DIP0001 activation, which is actually useless for us. This was the cause of the irregular wallet shutdown. The code will be removed in Bata Core 17.0.

It is a Dash feature to double transaction capacity of block. With SegWit already implemented from original Bitcoin wallet it was just unnecessary redundancy there.

Bata Core 17.0.15 has now been released and is available to download:


https://github.com/BTA-BATA/Bataoshi/releases
https://bata.io


Bata Core 17.0 Release notes:

DIP0001 activation removed due to bug causing wallet shutdown - With SegWit already implemented from original Bitcoin wallet it was just unnecessary redundancy.


Core 0.17  Features:


Better Coin Selection And Output Handling

In straightforward terms, Core 0.17.0 is smarter about adding different transaction outputs together and managing the change output from those transactions.

Easier To Create And Use New Wallets

Core 0.17.0 also makes it easier to create and use new wallets. The first major wallet creation improvements date back to Bitcoin Core 0.15.0, which is when the client added the ability to create wallets that operate independently of one another. These independent wallets have their own separate bitcoin addresses and private keys, which effectively makes them two totally different wallets.

Up until now, however, new wallets could only be created when starting up a new node.

Scantxoutset Has Been Added

Core 0.17.0 adds a new feature called Scantxoutset, which lets users quickly verify whether a new wallet already includes coins.

This feature makes it easier to create independent wallets. With Scantxoutset, you can quickly determine if coins were transferred from another wallet by checking the unspent transaction output (UTXO) set. You don’t have to rescan the entire transaction history.

Non-HD To HD Wallet Upgrade

Bata Core has supported Hierarchical Deterministic wallet backups since Core 0.13.0. Since then, users have been able to backup multiple HD wallets with a single seed phrase (a list of words) instead of individually backing up all their private keys.

There was a small problem, though: Bata Core users who upgraded their system to Bata Core 0.13.0 and newer were unable to create new HD wallets. Because non-HD and HD wallets were incompatible, it meant users were still required to back up all their private keys and were unable to use the seed phrase backup for their HD wallets.

Now, with Core 0.17.0, things have changed, and these users can now upgrade to the HD format. Meanwhile, if you already have an HD wallet and are using Bata Core, you can now generate or import a new HD seed.


Watch-Only Wallets Where Every Address Is A Watch Only Address

Core 0.17.0 takes watch-only wallet addresses a step further than they’ve gone before. Under the old system, watch-only addresses could be used to display the balance of a wallet without actually holding the private keys. Users could easily accept payments and keep track of their funds while still storing private keys online.

Core 0.17.0 takes this a step further by allowing users to create watch only wallets where every address is a watch-only address.

The best way to use this system would be to keep track of funds in a hardware wallet or on a paper wallet in the form of an HD seed while using Bata Core.


Blockchain Pruning Helps Users Avoid Storing All Of Blockchain Data


New Bata Core users need to download and validate the complete Bata blockchain, which includes every transaction in bata’s history.

There’s no getting around downloading the whole blockchain. However, thanks to the new version of Bata Core, you don’t necessarily have to store all that data permanently.

A new trick in Bata Core 0.17.0 called blockchain pruning means users don’t actually have to store all this data. Blockchain pruning means nodes will automatically “forget” about older transaction data. They’ll only keep the data they need to operate securely.

Pruning mode isn’t new: it’s been available via the command line for several versions now. However, Bata Core 0.17.0 has introduced a GUI blockchain pruning tool that makes it easier to access – particularly for more casual, non-technical Bata Core users.

Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions (PSBTs)

Finally, Core 0.17.0 introduces BIP 174, Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions (PSBTs), to allow users to sign a transaction partially while also adding metadata to the partially signed transaction. This metadata can be used by someone else to complete the transaction.

A traditional blockchain transaction does not involve partial signatures: one user sends bitcoin to another user. The partial signature system, however, allows for more complex types of transactions, including multi-sig transactions where several users need to sign off on the transfer of funds. This partial signature system will also be used for privacy-focused CoinJoin transactions, where multiple users merge independent transactions into a single large transaction.

At this point, PSBT has limited usability until it’s adopted by other wallets. In the future, however, this could open the possibility of more complex bitcoin transactions to all types of bata users. For now, Bata Core 0.17.0 only supports Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions via the command line.


Special Thanks to Fixed Trade Coin (FxTC) who we have been working in collaboration with.

Thanks to CMC we now have an updated description:

About Bata
Bata (BTA), or Barter And Trade Alternative, describes itself as a cryptocurrency that has been developed to replace trade dollars in traditional barter systems. Bata aims to change way the way people trade by introducing Barter on the Blockchain. The project's vision is to introduce a new system of commerce (called Barterchain) that aims to create new jobs and help break away from the current system of debt based money.

The team claims that BATA has the following features:

- Dynamic Blocks - Based on block height and difficulty (means no cheap blocks)

- Instamine protection - Instamine protection will trigger after 5 blocks of a single algorithm are mined in a short period of time.

- Deadlock protection - Difficulty is reduced even when no new blocks are found, new blocks are mined much faster even after a period of very high hash rate.

- Spork control over block processing - The team claims to have full control of block processing without the need for wallet upgrades.

Hack / Suppression update.

Please note, Bata's main Twitter account was suspended without explanation about a year ago.

My accounts on Twitter are still being suppressed. Currently the same events of over a year ago are occurring. I cannot login into personal my backup account @SwifToshi & main account @CryptoOz as they both ask for mobile phone verification but Twitter says the phone number is in use.

Just to let you know large accounts on Twitter that have blocked my account/s due to not being able to accept the truth are:

@Bitcoin
@Square
@officialmcafee
@PeterMcCormack
@AlenaSatoshi
@danheld
plus many more & Craig Wright (FakeToshi) whilst active on twitter


I created another account today, within 5 mins Twitter locked me out. The only interactions I had on Twitter before the lock out was with the following accounts:

1. @EntangleIT (Satoshi Fraud / BSV nutjob) - This account blocked @CryptoOz & other my accounts.
2. @VVission (Bible basher / nutcase / Fraud / Bot like) This account blocked @CryptoOz & other my accounts.
3. @TeamSatoshi (Deniers)



On another note..

My personal holding of Bata, a small amount have not been recovered / returned from Cryptopia, as I gather most have not.

https://www.coindesk.com/cryptopia-exchange-currently-in-liquidation-gets-hacked-again-report


https://bitcointalk.org/ is suppressing the Bata Announcement Thread and it is not appearing in the section when a post is made.

I have not given up yet.
