== Exchanges listing Ravencoin Assets ==<br />
Ravencoin assets are not yet traded on exchanges. There are several websites dedicated to trading asset names and exchanges that are looking into supporting Ravencoin Assets for trading.<br />
<br />
''' DISCLAIMER: None of these sites have been truly tested, and are all very new. Be careful with your crypto and DYOR.<br />

<br />
== Exchange Communication ==<br />
This page shall provide information and guidelines on how to bring the Ravencoin to an exchange.<br />
It should be noted that the process can require some work, but getting listed in an exchange <br />
is an important process to get Ravencoin recognized by a larger public.<br />
<br />
In the following a couple of steps which You typically find in an application.<br />
<br />
=== Is Ravencoin a security? ===<br />
No. Some exchanges require a legal assessment addressing whether RVN is a security under U.S law before accepting an application for listing. An article on this issue has been compiled by @K27#1391 and is available [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Se_GqusXcobgdVGwa8x55oQjJfTFHkHUQTxuqPcOmbA here]. This document can be used for exchanges requesting a legal memorandum in the application process.<br />
<br />
=== What is Ravencoin ===<br />
Ravencoin was first announced in October of 2017 at MIT. In the months leading to the official launch on January 3rd, 2018, Ravencoin gained support at several conferences and colleges. Self-described as "...a use case specific blockchain designed to carry statements of truth about who owns what asset" Ravencoin's naming pays homage to the ravens of the fictional world of Westeros. In the two months after its launch, Ravencoin has seen an exponential groundswell of community support, including the support of the larger mining community. Ravencoin is the first coin to leverage the ASIC resistant x16r algorithm and is a completely Proof of Work(PoW) coin. No ICO was undertaken, and neither was a pre-mine utilized. Ravencoin has attracted many individuals to the community and project due to its fair and grassroots hallmarks of the original Bitcoin launch. Ravencoin differs however from Bitcoin with an increased block reward size, and a faster block time, features which developers have alluded to setting the groundwork for Ethereum style asset transfers and tokens.<br />
Overstock.com has been investing time and developers to contribute to the project, and even mining the token.<br />
<br />
RVN is a project in development with a dedicated community. In the next phase, it will have a native asset layer built into the protocol to allow people to easily tokenize any asset that can be transferred between parties. In principle, one can tokenize anything, but a main focus and functionality will be the ability to tokenize securities, as the protocol will also be able to pay out dividends. <br />
<br />
Some advantages Ravencoin will have to token issuers:<br />
<br />
* more secure chain<br />
* more censorship resistant <br />
* more decentralized <br />
* simpler / more elegant <br />
* native in the protocol <br />
* will allow dividends <br />
* will allow messaging<br />
<br />
ASIC resistance and a wider and fairer distribution is another advantage of Ravencoin. By this time period in Bitcoin's history, the coin had less than a dozen miners - RVN has thousands. Ravencoin is one of the most widely distributed coins - if not THE most.<br />
<br />
=== Who is the CEO ===<br />
As RVN is an open source project there is no CEO. Individual persons are presenting and can bring applications forward though.<br />
<br />
=== What is an NDA and can I sign it? ===<br />
The NDA - a non-disclosure agreement - is an agreement to restrict information from spreading outside the agreeing parties. A company uses NDAs to limit information spreading. Afterall listing on an exchange is a negotiation. The NDA is limiting the information spread around that process. If You sign an NDA, this also means that You need to be cautious what information to be spread also to the community.<br />

<br />
== Exchange Target List ==<br />
Below is a table of the top 200+ exchanges by volume (as of April 5, 2018). We will want to use this list as our source of truth for which exchanges have been contacted, which ones we are in active discussions with, which ones we will not be moving forward with (possibly due to fees). Everyone can assign themselves to each exchange. Note that this is not a recommendation for a specific exchange. For the Status column, let's try and be consistent so we all know what it means so let's use the following: <br /><br />

| 05/22/2018 While we are always open to adding new digital assets to our exchange, we're not currently accepting any new listings. However, we're hoping to begin adding new digital assets in the near future. I've assigned your request to the appropriate team members, who are responsible for assessing potential new listings. In the meantime, the best way to get up-to-the-minute details regarding which assets are being listed on Kraken is to read our email newsletters and blog (http://blog.kraken.com) and follow us on social.<br />

Dear RVN Team,<br />
Thank you for applying for coin listing on CoinTiger Exchange. <br />
After careful consideration and several rounds of discussion, we are sorry to inform you that CoinTiger decides not to list RVN for the time being.<br />
Please note CoinTiger takes into consideration of several items when determining whether to list a token, including but not limited to market interest, liquidity, innovative application and significant improvement over existing blockchain. <br />
Unfortunately we retain full discretion regarding our decision not to list your token on the exchange. <br />
However, please keep in touch with updates about your project and community, and resubmitting your token to CoinTiger later.<br />
Best Regards<br />

We aren't against adding any specific tokens but we are perfecting our service before adding any more. We only just added Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash. Maybe in the future Ravencoin will be available with Coinmama but I wouldn't be able to say if and when that could be.<br />
Let me know if you have any questions.<br />
<br />

[http://www.ravencoin.org Ravencoin] is an open source project built on a code fork of [https://en.bitcoin.it bitcoin] version 15.1. Ravencoin fairly launched on the 3rd of January 2018 without ICO, pre-mine or masternodes and was announced by Bruce Fenton [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 on twitter]. Ravencoin is focused on building open-source technology and has a strong and growing [[community]]. Ravencoin aims to implement simple issuance and management of tradable [[Guides#Everything_about_Ravencoin_Assets | assets]] on a blockchain. To avoid centralized ASIC mining of Ravencoin the developers created a new algorithm, [https://ravencoin.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/X16R-Whitepaper.pdf X16R] ([https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/448427648629342208/582240872238678045/X16R_White_Paper_French.pdf FR]). What makes X16R unique is the changing order of 16 hashing algorithms based on the hash of the previous block. This random reordering of hashing algorithms makes it reasonably resistant to ASIC development. The developers have also stated they are committed to keeping it ASIC free and can easily alter the algorithm if an ASIC is developed. The core team has produced a roadmap with a [[Development | development plan of 7 phases]]. A more detailed timeline is available [https://ravencoin.org/project-timeline/ here]. [https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md The roadmap] for the code development was published on the project's [https://github.com/RavenProject/ github] on the 3rd of April 2018. [https://ravencoin.org/Ravencoin.pdf The white paper describing the background and intention of the project] was published on the same date on Ravencoin.org and Bruce Fenton posted a [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/981564543749971968?s=19 Twitter thread] summarizing some key points of the whitepaper and growth of the project to date. At the time of launch, the core team was funded by [http://www.mediciventures.com/ Medici Ventures] who are owned by [https://www.overstock.com/about Overstock.com] - Patrick Byrne, the CEO of Overstock talks [http://uk.businessinsider.com/bitcoin-pioneer-overstock-ceo-explains-long-standing-crypto-play-ravencoin-2018-2 about Ravencoin in this BusinessInsider interview.]<br />

= Introduction =<br />
Ravencoin is an open source project. Unlike other projects, most of the content about Ravencoin is community generated and managed. There are limited "official" websites and chats, the core dev team are only really focused on the software, with the community building other tools and projects. <br />
<br />
''"Through systems that let people have their opinions heard, we can have healthy debates, constructive criticism, and discover new perspectives. We won't all agree on every detail as our community moves forward. But we ALL want RVN to succeed in the long run. Working together we will find the way."''<br />

In addition to the X16R algorithm, most of the core code changes are in [https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/src/chainparams.cpp the chainparams] file. <br />
<br />
The details are broken down on the wiki page: '''[[Chainparams]]'''.<br />
<br />
If you are looking to port existing Bitcoin applications to include Ravencoin - there are some useful parameters available from work done in the [https://github.com/brian112358/ledger-wallet-chrome/commit/303f5030059c805d808c83466275e078d06afbb5 Ledger integration code on GitHub].<br />
<br />
Summarized on the wiki page: '''[[Ledger integration]]'''<br />
<br />
If you are looking for typical parameters needed for wallet integration - there is a summary on the '''[[Wallet integration]]''' page.<br />
<br />
It's worth mentioning, whilst we all try to keep these pages up to date, the RavenProject code on GitHub could change and these pages could become out of sync. Please validate on [https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin].<br />
<br />
==Phase 2&4 - Assets, Subassets & Unique assets ==<br />
<br />
Asset testnet live. Check [[testnet]] for more details, and [[Testnet-technical]] for details about the anatomy of a Ravencoin asset transaction script.<br />
<br />
Asset FAQ written by Tron on Medium https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-asset-faq-e0d04d460e9b<br />
<br />
(20 Aug 2018) In addition to asset functionality being on available to test on testnet - Ravencoin is forking to include Dark Gravity Wave to protect itself against hash rate attacks - exchanges and mining pools need to upgrade as soon as possible to the latest wallet release, users as soon as they want to use their coins. [[Forks_and_updates]]<br />
<br />
===Asset info for Main Net===<br />
Assets (cost 500 RVN):<br />
* Burn address: https://ravencoin.network/address/RXissueAssetXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXhhZGt<br />
* Token name - Must be unique<br />
* Number of tokens - From 1 to 21 billion<br />
* How divisible? - From not divisible to 8 decimal places (0.00000001)<br />
* Reissuable (yes/no)<br />
* Include meta-data (agreement, company, contact, etc)<br />
<br />
Subassets (cost 100 RVN):<br />
* Burn address: https://ravencoin.network/address/RXissueSubAssetXXXXXXXXXXXXXWcwhwL<br />
* Token name - Must be unique when combined with token<br />
* Number of tokens - From 1 to 21 billion<br />
* How divisible? - From not divisible to 8 decimal places (0.00000001)<br />
* Reissuable (yes/no)<br />
<br />
Unique Assets (cost 5 RVN) - create one-of-a-kind assets:<br />
* Burn address: https://ravencoin.network/address/RXissueUniqueAssetXXXXXXXXXXWEAe58<br />
* ART#VenusDeMilo<br />
* CAR#<VIN number><br />
* COOLGAME#SwordOfThor<br />
<br />
Reissuing an Asset (cost 100 RVN):<br />
* Burn address: https://ravencoin.network/address/RXReissueAssetXXXXXXXXXXXXXXVEFAWu<br />
* Reissuing an asset lets you issue more, change decimal places, change ipfs hash, and/or change reissuability.<br />
<br />
===Global burn address===<br />
If you want to get rid of for example assets you do not want. You can send them to a global burn address:<br />
<br />
https://ravencoin.network/address/RXBurnXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWUo9FV<br />
<br />
==Phase 3 - Dividends/Rewards==<br />
<br />
Pay your token holders in RVN. Turn your profits into RVN and send out to all holders of your token by percentage held.<br />
<br />
Dividend support can be done without modifying the protocol. We can add it to a version of the software that can be used by the payer, without requiring others to upgrade (i.e., a soft fork).<br />
<br />
If you require this functionality ask in #dev channel on discord as there is a python script to get owners of assets, and someone could write code to loop through owners paying to their address.<br />
<br />
==Phase 5 - Messaging==<br />
<br />
Broadcast a message to all of your token holders.<br />
* Send information about your token.<br />
* Send alerts relevant to your project.<br />
* Send information about a shareholder vote.<br />
* Use Raven messaging for other systems.<br />
<br />
==Phase 6 - Voting==<br />
<br />
Issue a special vote token to every holder of your token.<br />
* Send to <address X> to vote for X proposal<br />
* Send to <address Y> to vote for Y proposal<br />
Second tier web voting can be built on top of this protocol.<br />
<br />
==Phase 7 - Compatible Mode==<br />
Allows newly created assets to appear exactly like RVN, LTC, or Bitcoin for easy integration into exchanges, wallets, explorers, etc.<br />
This speeds adoption into the larger crypto ecosystem.<br />
<br />
=Using the Ravencoin platform=<br />
<br />
'' Current commands are as of Oct 13th, 2018. Be sure to check the QT wallet on github for up to date commands ''<br />
<br />
==Asset control==<br />
issue (asset_name, qty, to_address, change_address, units, reissuable, has_ipfs, ipfs_hash)<br />
Issue an asset with unique name. Unit as 1 for whole units, or 0.00000001 for satoshi-like units. Qty should be whole number. Reissuable is true/false for whether additional units can be issued by the original issuer.<br />
<br />
issueunique (root_name, asset_tags, ipfs_hash, to_address, change_address)<br />
Creates a unique asset from a pool of assets with a specific name. Example: If the asset name is SOFTLICENSE, then this could make unique assets like SOFTLICENSE:38293 and SOFTLICENSE:48382 This would be called once per unique asset needed.<br />
<br />
reissue (reissue asset_name, qty, to_address, change_address, reissuable, new_unit, new_ipfs )<br />
Issue more of a specific asset. This is only allowed by the original issuer of the asset and if the reissuable flag was set to true at the time of original issuance.<br />
<br />
transfer (asset_name, qty, to_address)<br />
This sends assets from one asset holder to another.<br />
<br />
listassets (assets, verbose, count, start)<br />
This lists assets that have already been created.<br />
<br />
listmyassets ( asset, verbose, count, start ) <br />
Lists your assets.<br />
<br />
listassetbalancesbyaddress (address) <br />
Lists asset balance by address.<br />
<br />
listaddressesbyasset (asset_name) <br />
Lists addresses by asset.<br />
<br />
getassetdata (asset_name) <br />
Lists asset data of an asset.<br />
<br />
==IPFS - InterPlanetary File System==<br />
You can add a document to an asset for any purpose. Such as instructions, a low-res image of a piece of art that is represented by the token, your website, etc. <br />
<br />
Currently, there is not (yet) IPFS support directly in the Raven wallet. However, you can upload content to e.g., https://globalupload.io/ and add the hash of the content to the asset that you are creating. <br />

= Testnet =<br />
<br />
This testnet network will be a completely independent secondary blockchain for testing purposes only, in which all tokens will have no intrinsic value and will not be traded on exchanges. The purpose of a testnet is to test features and functionality before introducing those features and functionality to the main blockchain. It is a playground to experiment and test different features with almost no cost to transact or mine blocks. During this testing phase, the Ravencoin blockchain itself will continue to maintain the same operation and functionality it has today.<br />
<br />
<br />
To run your current wallet in testnet mode: <br />
# First shutdown your current full client wallet.<br />
# Create a shortcut to your raven-qt.exe with this in the target field: <br /> <pre>"C:\Users<username>\Path\to\executable\raven-qt.exe" –testnet</pre><br />
# Open the wallet by clicking on the shortcut you just made, and let the blockchain sync fully<br />
<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
! Read this section carefully: BE SAFE AND DON'T CONFUSE YOUR MAINNET WALLET WITH THE TESTNET WALLET! <br />
|-<br />
| Don't worry, this will not interfere with your regular Raven wallet, just make sure both wallets are not running at the same time. For those who are technically inclined, running in testnet mode does not overwrite any of the blockchain data or wallet files of Ravencoin’s main network. Instead, it will create a subfolder named testnet3 inside your data folder where all testnet related data and wallets reside.<br />
<br />
'''If you would prefer to err on the side of caution, consider running your testnet wallet on a different computer.'''<br />

<br />
<br />
If you have additional questions about testnet, please see [https://www.reddit.com/r/Ravencoin/comments/94ju8y/come_join_us_on_testnet_and_try_out_rvn_assets/ this subreddit thread] or the [https://discord.gg/9mxhNjS #testnet channel in Discord.] <br />
<br />
There are currently a couple of tools available to assist you with testnet testing. <br />
<br />
*A fully functional block explorer for testnet Ravencoin is available at https://testnet.ravencoin.network/. <br />
*A faucet which will issue you 5000 free '''testnet Ravencoin''' per click, is also at https://testnet.ravencoin.network/ or http://ravencoin.asset-explorer.net/faucet<br />
*A testnet version of the Pocket Raven Web Wallet is at https://testnet.pocketraven.com/<br />
*You can GPU mine for testnet RVN on MinerMore's testnet pool at https://testnet.minermore.com/<br />
<br />
After this testing period, it is anticipated that the community will consider adoption of the new asset-aware code. Activation will occur through the '''BIP9''' consensus mechanism. More information on the activation process can be found [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RxRokp_P9Iu7eqKdfR7wj2D7bqMwqnd_l3R1yjq633k/ here]<br />

}}<br />
<br />
__TOC__<br />
<br />
== Coin launch / structure ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is RVN any better than <insert coin here>? ===<br />
Some thoughts about the potential future direction of RVN have been captured in [[The Fenton Files]] ''(I'd personally really recommend a read through of that to help understand the background)''<br />
<br />
=== Where's the whitepaper? ===<br />
A paper describing the intention for Ravencoin is available on the Ravencoin.org site [https://ravencoin.org/Ravencoin.pdf here] other papers are also linked [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ here]<br />
<br />
=== What's the roadmap for Ravencoin? ===<br />
[https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md]<br />
<br />
All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/]<br />
<br />
=== Are there Masternodes? ===<br />
No. <br />
<br />
=== When is the ICO? ===<br />
There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-case.<br />
<br />
=== Was it pre-mined? ===<br />
No - it was [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 announced on twitter] and discussed at a few meetups prior to that. There's a timeline of some of the events [https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1NKsWx5sSG90GjbbwZaOav6D_bAOdnlBjPBAjJtZzXr4&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650 here]<br />
<br />
Further points about the launch where made on [https://raven.wiki/w/index.php?title=The_Fenton_Files&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop#6_May_2018_-_Telegram Telegram on the 6th May 2018]<br />
<br />
===The devs should do <insert topic here> / Why aren't the devs doing <insert topic here>? ===<br />
This is an open source project. You can do whatever you want with it. Read [[The Fenton Files]] for more thoughts about the coin. The devs are focused on the code development inline with the roadmap. Members of the community can build tools and websites around the coin that they think could be useful.<br />
<br />
=== How come some people have 100,000's if it wasn't premined? ===<br />
There were people that started when difficulty was well under 100 rather than where it is now. Some people rented hundreds of cloud CPU's to mine it before the GPU miner software was developed for the community. Some still have huge gpu rigs pointed at pools. All coins in circulation have been generated the same way, fair mining.<br />
<br />
=== What's the max supply? ===<br />
21 billion<br />
<br />
=== What's the halving rate? ===<br />
The same as bitcoin so every 4 years or so. 2100000 blocks (1block / min * 60mins * 24hrs * 365 days * 4yrs)<br />
<br />
https://ravencoin.org/halving/ read more here.<br />
<br />
=== When will all be mined? ===<br />
Tron one of the core team devs explained it on Telegram on the 30th March 2018 as follows: <br />
"Half of Raven will be mined over the next 4 years or so. Then another quarter over the next 4 years. Then an eighth over the next 4 years, etc. Most will be mined over the next 24 years, but it will continue for another 120 years or so. Mining fees should support the Raven network as the block reward decreases."<br />
<br />
== Trading Questions ==<br />
<br />
=== When will RVN be on more / better exchanges? ===<br />
<br />
RVN is listed on multiple sound exchanges.<br />
<br />
There's an exchange liaison group on discord with a number of people talking to exchanges and software and hardware wallets. <br />
<br />
The group has a working document [[Exchanges]] and an [[Exchange FAQ]] on this wiki.<br />
<br />
=== What's the going rate for RVN? ===<br />
<br />
Check the exchanges above.<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
<br />
=== How do I mine Ravencoin? ===<br />
<br />
There is dedicated '''[[mining]]''' page, including links to the opensource mining software for both nVidia and AMD cards.<br />
<br />
=== Can I mine with my CPU / CPU or GPU mining which is better? ===<br />
<br />
CPU mining is not worthwhile anymore. You can mine with your CPU using the wallet (''setgenerate true -1'' to use all your CPU however you are very unlikely to mine a block). The network hash rate is now pretty large so a single CPU isn't going to contribute much. Obviously, if you've got a lot of CPU's or high-end ones you may earn get lucky. Generally, people are running GPU's in one of the [[Pools]].<br />
<br />
=== Which miner is best? ===<br />
<br />
[https://ravenforum.org/topic/25/a1-vs-suprminer-vs-nevermore-vs-enemy-1-04-test-results A1 Vs Suprminer Vs Nevermore Vs Enemy 1.04 - Test Results] 4 way Head to head comparison of A1min3r 0.1.2 Vs. Suprminer 1.6 Vs. Nevermore 0.2.2 Vs. Enemy 1.04<br />
<br />
<br />
[https://ravenforum.org/topic/23/enemy-1-03-vs-suprminer-1-6-vs-enemy-1-05-test-results Enemy vs Suprminer] comparison of 2 versions of Enemy miner and Suprminer<br />
<br />
=== Which pool is best? ===<br />
<br />
All the [[Pools]] are pretty good, and as with most things tech, they all have issues from time to time. On average you'll get a larger share of fewer blocks with the smaller pools and a smaller share of more blocks with the larger pools. There are support channels for most of the pools on discord. The pools can be compared [https://www.rvnstats.info/d/TcDzUYmmz/x16r-ravencoin-mining-pool-statistics-v1-3 here].<br />
<br />
Mining on a big pool will give us many tiny payouts, vs mining on a small pool will give us fewer large payouts. Over time it will average out and we will earn the same amount of coins.<br />
<br />
A good recommendation when choosing a pool is any pool not in the top 3 highest hashrate, but any other pool with at least around 0,5% of network hash rate so the pool will hit some blocks each day. Or if we want to help build up a tiny pool, go for an even smaller one.<br />
<br />
The reason we want to not go for the pools with the highest hashrate is to spread the hash and secure our network. Read up on [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Majority_attack 51% attack here].<br />
<br />
=== When do we get paid ===<br />
<br />
Payouts come from a block found by the pool that we have valid shares on. After a block is found it needs to be confirmed by the 100 next blocks, and since block time is 1min for Ravencoin this is about 100 mins. Coins are called immature while being confirmed. Once the coins are confirmed they are spendable, and will be paid out by the pool on the next payout cycle. Coins are often called matured coins at this stage.<br />
<br />
=== I just started mining 30mins ago, why are my rewards so low ===<br />
<br />
Pplns vs pps, is often the answer. In a pool with pplns - Pay Per Last N Shares - we build up over rounds(N) our share in the reward(block). Suprnova uses 20 - 25 rounds for N.<br />
<br />
PPS - Pay Per Share, the sum of our submitted (accepted) shares divided by total submitted shares on the pool by other miners, gives us our percentage of the next block.<br />
<br />
yiimp based pools (such as ravenminer.com, yiimp.eu, cryptopool.party) by default use a custom approach to rewards. All shares are saved for as long as it takes to find a block. Then, when a block is found: 1) rewards are divided proportionally among valid shares. 2) Valid shares older than 5 minutes prior to the block being found are then deleted. [https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/next/web/yaamp/core/backend/blocks.php] This has the effect that all miners get close to a fresh start with each new block.<br />
<br />
Pplns will give us more rewards in long term mining. [https://minergate.com/faq/difference-between-pps-and-pplns Read more here] and [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39832 here.]<br />
<br />
=== Why is the difficulty going up / down? ===<br />
The network tries to maintain 1 block being solved per minute over 2016 blocks before retargeting difficulty. If miners have found more than 1 block per minute during the previous 2016 blocks the network difficulty will go up to bring the average block time back to 1 per minute. If miners are solving blocks slower the opposite will happen.<br />
<br />
=== Why is my hash rate going up and down? ===<br />
The X16r algo consists of 16 different algos, and the order is based on the last 16 bits of the last block. We can get a better displayed hashrate on ccminer/nevermore by adding the following to the end of the bat file:<br />
-N 600<br />
<br />
=== What hash rate should I be getting for my cards? ===<br />
<br />
There are some conservative numbers on [http://whattomine.com/ WhatToMine]<br />
<br />
These are average hashrates (from multiple cards) from Nevermore 0.2.2 and Suprminer 1.6 with -N 600 (and more than 600 accepted shares):<br />

== Community type questions ==<br />
<br />
The '''[[community]]''' page links to a lot of the resources available. <br />
<br />
=== What's the link for Ravencoin Community Discord? ===<br />
[https://discord.gg/CXkJcC3 Discord]<br />
<br />
== How do I do <topic here> with the wallet? ==<br />
Many questions about the wallet can be answered by searching the same question for the Bitcoin wallet. The [https://en.bitcoin.it Bitcoin wiki] and [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/bitcoin Bitcoin on StackOverflow] are two great resources which might already have answers to your question.<br />

'''[[Best practices]]''' for how to keep your coins safe.<br />
=== How do I get a receiving address? ===<br />
At the time of writing the Raven QT wallet is largely the same as the Bitcoin QT wallet - there are numerous guides via Google on setting up the Bitcoin QT wallet.<br />
<br />
In summary, install the wallet then:<br />
<br />
For a receiving address:<br />
<br />
Click File > Receiving Address > New, enter a name for your address, click OK - you should then see your new address<br />

=== How do I set up the wallet to be a full node (and why would I?) ===<br />
A full node validates transactions and blocks, which makes the whole Ravencoin network stronger. You can enable this by opening up the wallet and looking under Settings > Options > Network and making sure both "Map port using UPnP" and "Allow incoming connections" are both checked.<br />

}}<br />
<br />
__TOC__<br />
<br />
== Coin launch / structure ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is RVN any better than <insert coin here>? ===<br />
Some thoughts about the potential future direction of RVN have been captured in [[The Fenton Files]] ''(I'd personally really recommend a read through of that to help understand the background)''<br />
<br />
=== Where's the whitepaper? ===<br />
A paper describing the intention for Ravencoin is available on the Ravencoin.org site [https://ravencoin.org/Ravencoin.pdf here] other papers are also linked [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ here]<br />
<br />
=== What's the roadmap for Ravencoin? ===<br />
[https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md]<br />
<br />
All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/]<br />
<br />
=== Are there Masternodes? ===<br />
No. <br />
<br />
=== When is the ICO? ===<br />
There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-case.<br />
<br />
=== Was it pre-mined? ===<br />
No - it was [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 announced on twitter] and discussed at a few meetups prior to that. There's a timeline of some of the events [https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1NKsWx5sSG90GjbbwZaOav6D_bAOdnlBjPBAjJtZzXr4&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650 here]<br />
<br />
Further points about the launch where made on [https://raven.wiki/w/index.php?title=The_Fenton_Files&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop#6_May_2018_-_Telegram Telegram on the 6th May 2018]<br />
<br />
===The devs should do <insert topic here> / Why aren't the devs doing <insert topic here>? ===<br />
This is an open source project. You can do whatever you want with it. Read [[The Fenton Files]] for more thoughts about the coin. The devs are focused on the code development inline with the roadmap. Members of the community can build tools and websites around the coin that they think could be useful.<br />
<br />
=== How come some people have 100,000's if it wasn't premined? ===<br />
There were people that started when difficulty was well under 100 rather than where it is now. Some people rented hundreds of cloud CPU's to mine it before the GPU miner software was developed for the community. Some still have huge gpu rigs pointed at pools. All coins in circulation have been generated the same way, fair mining.<br />
<br />
=== What's the max supply? ===<br />
21 billion<br />
<br />
=== What's the halving rate? ===<br />
The same as bitcoin so every 4 years or so. 2100000 blocks (1block / min * 60mins * 24hrs * 365 days * 4yrs)<br />
<br />
https://ravencoin.org/halving/ read more here.<br />
<br />
=== When will all be mined? ===<br />
Tron one of the core team devs explained it on Telegram on the 30th March 2018 as follows: <br />
"Half of Raven will be mined over the next 4 years or so. Then another quarter over the next 4 years. Then an eighth over the next 4 years, etc. Most will be mined over the next 24 years, but it will continue for another 120 years or so. Mining fees should support the Raven network as the block reward decreases."<br />
<br />
== Trading Questions ==<br />
<br />
=== When will RVN be on more / better exchanges? ===<br />
<br />
RVN is listed on multiple sound exchanges.<br />
<br />
There's an exchange liaison group on discord with a number of people talking to exchanges and software and hardware wallets. <br />
<br />
The group has a working document [[Exchanges]] and an [[Exchange FAQ]] on this wiki.<br />
<br />
=== What's the going rate for RVN? ===<br />
<br />
Check the exchanges above.<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
<br />
=== How do I mine Ravencoin? ===<br />
<br />
There is dedicated '''[[mining]]''' page, including links to the opensource mining software for both nVidia and AMD cards.<br />
<br />
=== Can I mine with my CPU / CPU or GPU mining which is better? ===<br />
<br />
CPU mining is not worthwhile anymore. You can mine with your CPU using the wallet (''setgenerate true -1'' to use all your CPU however you are very unlikely to mine a block). The network hash rate is now pretty large so a single CPU isn't going to contribute much. Obviously, if you've got a lot of CPU's or high-end ones you may earn get lucky. Generally, people are running GPU's in one of the [[Pools]].<br />
<br />
=== Which miner is best? ===<br />
<br />
[https://ravenforum.org/topic/25/a1-vs-suprminer-vs-nevermore-vs-enemy-1-04-test-results A1 Vs Suprminer Vs Nevermore Vs Enemy 1.04 - Test Results] 4 way Head to head comparison of A1min3r 0.1.2 Vs. Suprminer 1.6 Vs. Nevermore 0.2.2 Vs. Enemy 1.04<br />
<br />
<br />
[https://ravenforum.org/topic/23/enemy-1-03-vs-suprminer-1-6-vs-enemy-1-05-test-results Enemy vs Suprminer] comparison of 2 versions of Enemy miner and Suprminer<br />
<br />
=== Which pool is best? ===<br />
<br />
All the [[Pools]] are pretty good, and as with most things tech, they all have issues from time to time. On average you'll get a larger share of fewer blocks with the smaller pools and a smaller share of more blocks with the larger pools. There are support channels for most of the pools on discord. The pools can be compared [https://www.rvnstats.info/d/TcDzUYmmz/x16r-ravencoin-mining-pool-statistics-v1-3 here].<br />
<br />
Mining on a big pool will give us many tiny payouts, vs mining on a small pool will give us fewer large payouts. Over time it will average out and we will earn the same amount of coins.<br />
<br />
A good recommendation when choosing a pool is any pool not in the top 3 highest hashrate, but any other pool with at least around 0,5% of network hash rate so the pool will hit some blocks each day. Or if we want to help build up a tiny pool, go for an even smaller one.<br />
<br />
The reason we want to not go for the pools with the highest hashrate is to spread the hash and secure our network. Read up on [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Majority_attack 51% attack here].<br />
<br />
=== When do we get paid ===<br />
<br />
Payouts come from a block found by the pool that we have valid shares on. After a block is found it needs to be confirmed by the 100 next blocks, and since block time is 1min for Ravencoin this is about 100 mins. Coins are called immature while being confirmed. Once the coins are confirmed they are spendable, and will be paid out by the pool on the next payout cycle. Coins are often called matured coins at this stage.<br />
<br />
=== I just started mining 30mins ago, why are my rewards so low ===<br />
<br />
Pplns vs pps, is often the answer. In a pool with pplns - Pay Per Last N Shares - we build up over rounds(N) our share in the reward(block). Suprnova uses 20 - 25 rounds for N.<br />
<br />
PPS - Pay Per Share, the sum of our submitted (accepted) shares divided by total submitted shares on the pool by other miners, gives us our percentage of the next block.<br />
<br />
yiimp based pools (such as ravenminer.com, yiimp.eu, cryptopool.party) by default use a custom approach to rewards. All shares are saved for as long as it takes to find a block. Then, when a block is found: 1) rewards are divided proportionally among valid shares. 2) Valid shares older than 5 minutes prior to the block being found are then deleted. [https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/next/web/yaamp/core/backend/blocks.php] This has the effect that all miners get close to a fresh start with each new block.<br />
<br />
Pplns will give us more rewards in long term mining. [https://minergate.com/faq/difference-between-pps-and-pplns Read more here] and [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39832 here.]<br />
<br />
=== Why is the difficulty going up / down? ===<br />
The network tries to maintain 1 block being solved per minute over 2016 blocks before retargeting difficulty. If miners have found more than 1 block per minute during the previous 2016 blocks the network difficulty will go up to bring the average block time back to 1 per minute. If miners are solving blocks slower the opposite will happen.<br />
<br />
=== Why is my hash rate going up and down? ===<br />
The X16r algo consists of 16 different algos, and the order is based on the last 16 bits of the last block. We can get a better displayed hashrate on ccminer/nevermore by adding the following to the end of the bat file:<br />
-N 600<br />
<br />
=== What hash rate should I be getting for my cards? ===<br />
<br />
There are some conservative numbers on [http://whattomine.com/ WhatToMine]<br />
<br />
These are average hashrates (from multiple cards) from Nevermore 0.2.2 and Suprminer 1.6 with -N 600 (and more than 600 accepted shares):<br />

<br />
== How do I do <topic here> with the wallet? ==<br />
Many questions about the wallet can be answered by searching the same question for the Bitcoin wallet. The [https://en.bitcoin.it Bitcoin wiki] and [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/bitcoin Bitcoin on StackOverflow] are two great resources which might already have answers to your question.<br />

'''[[Best practices]]''' for how to keep your coins safe.<br />
=== How do I get a receiving address? ===<br />
At the time of writing the Raven QT wallet is largely the same as the Bitcoin QT wallet - there are numerous guides via Google on setting up the Bitcoin QT wallet.<br />
<br />
In summary, install the wallet then:<br />
<br />
For a receiving address:<br />
<br />
Click File > Receiving Address > New, enter a name for your address, click OK - you should then see your new address<br />

<hr />
<div>= Current Layout =<br />
<br />
* '''Main page''': needs to be less boring and more structured and <br />
** Include the latest news from 'Forks and updates'<br />
** NEW: add Companies using RVN: a list showing which companies use the raven network, it gets them some easy publicity, it shows the legitimate use and growth, and we can create transparency and clarity about use cases. I think this should be on the front page as it is a good indicator for adoption.<br />
* '''Assets''': -> Guides<br />
* '''Testnet''': -> development<br />
* '''Community''': needs a big update<br />
* '''Development''': ok<br />
* '''Electrum & ledger''': -> Guides<br />
* '''Mining''': needs better structure and up to date info<br />
* '''Troubleshoot''': -> FAQ and needs better structure and up to date info<br />
* '''FAQ''': needs better structure and up to date info<br />
* '''Best practises''': -> FAQ<br />
* '''Tools''': title is too vague. People look for specific things, like explorers, miners, wallets. We should focus on those as main pages<br />
* '''Explorers''': ok<br />
* '''Exchanges''': ok<br />
* '''Raspberry node''': Amazing! (i'm biased ;)) -> guides<br />
* '''Legal''': -> Exchanges<br />
* '''Wallets''': needs better structure and up to date info<br />
* '''Marketing''': hardly anything in there. -> FAQ<br />
* '''Road ahead''': outdated -> move the info that is still up to date to development.<br />
* '''Fenton Files''': Remove/stop? I think we need to break free from a single individual. Presentations/interviews to 'in the news'.<br />
* '''News articles''': split articles written about Raven from articles written for Raven: <br />
** '''NEW: In the News''': articles and videos from journalists and media etc.<br />
** '''NEW: RVN Guides''': Articles, youtube vids, etc such as Tron's medium articles and other How To guides. for the community, and an personalities who are looking into Raven.<br />
*'''Forks and updates''': -> Latest news should be on the main page. The rest should be available under development. <br />
*'''Use cases''': A collection of use cases (More in depth on the companies, Lemonade stands, STOs, Data usage, decentralized web, etc)<br />
<br />
= Proposed layout =<br />
* '''Main page''' (intro + latest news + companies) <br />
* '''NEW: Using RVN''': (more in depth use cases) [[Using Ravencoin]]<br />
* '''NEW: In the News''' (Tron articles, Bruce articles, other articles) [[In the News]]<br />
* '''NEW: Guides''' (Creating assets, creating nodes, etc) [[Guides]]<br />
* '''Development''' (Blockchain updates, Roadmap Phases, etc) [[Development]]<br />

* While wallet is still in sync no new transaction will appear in your transactions layout, so don't send anything unless the app is 100% synced.<br />

|description=Ravencoin Wiki - information about planned Forks and Updates<br />
}}<br />
<br />
=== 11 Nov 2018 ===<br />
<br />
The lastest version is 2.1.2 from GitHub https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/releases (alpha release on underdarkskies github of 2.1.3 available if you want to try it out)<br />
<br />
As before - make sure you have backed up your wallet.dat file.<br />
<br />
Any issues upgrading, please use #helpdesk channel in discord.<br />
<br />
===20 Aug 2018===<br />
<br />
The Ravencoin v2.0.4 wallet binaries are now available and can be downloaded at https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/releases/tag/v2.0.4<br />
<br />
This update will enable the Dark Gravity Wave difficulty adjustment for mining, contains the code for the asset layer that will begin activation on October 31st, and it fixes a few bugs found after v2.0.3 was released.<br />
<br />
IMPORTANT! The DGW adjustment will activate on block 338778, which will result in a hard-fork of the Ravencoin chain. Please apply the v2.0.4 binary updates as soon as possible in order to ensure that your wallets are on the correct chain after the fork. Anyone not using the new software upon the activation at block 338778 will be "forked off" and will remain on the counterfeit blockchain.<br />
<br />
====To upgrade:====<br />
<br />
1. Shut down your wallet....waiting to make sure it has shutdown...<br />
<br />
2. Back up your wallet.dat file - it's always good practice to have this securely backed up.<br />
<br />
3. Download the installer or raven-qt executables for your OS from the github link above, run the installer or replace the raven-qt executables on your system.<br />
<br />
Open up raven-qt again as before and check the version help > about.<br />
<br />
For a more detailed steps https://coinguides.org/updating-wallet-bitcoin-litecoin-dash/ is a good starting point. <br />

This page will help you work with assets on the Ravencoin blockchain. It assumes you have installed the Ravencoin software and synchronized the blockchain.<br />
<br />
If you've not done the above and need a simple guide on how to get started, read the Tron Black [https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-getting-started-96ab8e3e919b getting started] article on Medium.<br />
<br />
== Assets in the wallet ==<br />
=== Creating Assets ===<br />
<br />
# Open your Ravencoin Wallet<br />
# Click on the Assets tab.<br />
# Click the Create Asset button.<br />
# Leave address blank (for advanced users)<br />
# Choose a name for your asset (all uppercase) between 3 characters and 30 characters long - click Check Availability - if you get a green Valid Asset message you are good to carry on.<br />
# Enter a Quantity — any number between 1 and 21,000,000,000<br />
# Set the Units to 0 (for indivisible), or 8 (very divisible), or somewhere in-between.<br />
# Leave reissuable checked unless you’re sure of your other choices. [https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-to-reissue-or-not-to-reissue-67452b449f91 Tron Black to reissue or not]<br />

# Hit Create Asset and Check the confirmation details and if all is OK, click Yes and then OK.<br />
# You'll now need to wait for it to be mined into a block - on average this should only take a minute or two.<br />
# You can now go back to the Overview tab and wait for your asset to show up in your list of assets.<br />

<br />
=== Sending Assets ===<br />
<br />
# Select the Assets tab in the Ravencoin QT wallet (each asset has both the "tokens" (MYTOKEN) and "an ownership token" (MYTOKEN!), the Orange AA indicates the ownership token).<br />
# Select the asset you want to send from the dropdown list of assets (if you want to transfer ownership of the token name click the orange AA....use caution as this will send all control of the token)<br />
# Get the address you want to send your tokens to.<br />
# Copy/paste the address into ‘Pay To:’<br />
# Set the amount of the asset to send.<br />
# Hit Send and Yes to the confirmation.<br />

=== Sending Assets ===<br />
<br />
# Select the Assets tab in the Ravencoin QT wallet (each asset has both the "tokens" (MYTOKEN) and "an ownership token" (MYTOKEN!), the Orange AA indicates the ownership token).<br />
# Select the asset you want to send from the dropdown list of assets (if you want to transfer ownership of the token name click the orange AA....use caution as this will send all control of the token)<br />
# Get the address you want to send your tokens to.<br />
# Copy/paste the address into ‘Pay To:’<br />
# Set the amount of the asset to send.<br />
# Hit Send and Yes to the confirmation.<br />

<br />
__TOC__<br />
<br />
== Coin launch / structure ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is RVN any better than <insert coin here>? ===<br />
Some thoughts about the potential future direction of RVN have been captured in [[The Fenton Files]] ''(I'd personally really recommend a read through of that to help understand the background)''<br />
<br />
=== Where's the whitepaper? ===<br />
A paper describing the intention for Ravencoin is available on the Ravencoin.org site [https://ravencoin.org/Ravencoin.pdf here] other papers are also linked [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ here]<br />
<br />
=== What's the roadmap for Ravencoin? ===<br />
[https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md]<br />
<br />
All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/]<br />
<br />
=== Are there Masternodes? ===<br />
No. <br />
<br />
=== When is the ICO? ===<br />
There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-case.<br />
<br />
=== Was it pre-mined? ===<br />
No - it was [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 announced on twitter] and discussed at a few meetups prior to that. There's a timeline of some of the events [https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1NKsWx5sSG90GjbbwZaOav6D_bAOdnlBjPBAjJtZzXr4&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650 here]<br />
<br />
Further points about the launch where made on [https://raven.wiki/w/index.php?title=The_Fenton_Files&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop#6_May_2018_-_Telegram Telegram on the 6th May 2018]<br />
<br />
===The devs should do <insert topic here> / Why aren't the devs doing <insert topic here>? ===<br />
This is an open source project. You can do whatever you want with it. Read [[The Fenton Files]] for more thoughts about the coin. The devs are focused on the code development inline with the roadmap. Members of the community can build tools and websites around the coin that they think could be useful.<br />
<br />
=== How come some people have 100,000's if it wasn't premined? ===<br />
There were people that started when difficulty was well under 100 rather than where it is now. Some people rented hundreds of cloud CPU's to mine it before the GPU miner software was developed for the community. Some still have huge gpu rigs pointed at pools. All coins in circulation have been generated the same way, fair mining.<br />
<br />
=== What's the max supply? ===<br />
21 billion<br />
<br />
=== What's the halving rate? ===<br />
The same as bitcoin so every 4 years or so. 2100000 blocks (1block / min * 60mins * 24hrs * 365 days * 4yrs)<br />
<br />
https://ravencoin.org/halving/ read more here.<br />
<br />
=== When will all be mined? ===<br />
Tron one of the core team devs explained it on Telegram on the 30th March 2018 as follows: <br />
"Half of Raven will be mined over the next 4 years or so. Then another quarter over the next 4 years. Then an eighth over the next 4 years, etc. Most will be mined over the next 24 years, but it will continue for another 120 years or so. Mining fees should support the Raven network as the block reward decreases."<br />
<br />
== Trading Questions ==<br />
<br />
=== When will RVN be on more / better exchanges? ===<br />
<br />
RVN is listed on multiple sound exchanges.<br />
<br />
There's an exchange liaison group on discord with a number of people talking to exchanges and software and hardware wallets. <br />
<br />
The group has a working document [[Exchanges]] and an [[Exchange FAQ]] on this wiki.<br />
<br />
=== What's the going rate for RVN? ===<br />
<br />
Check the exchanges above.<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
<br />
=== How do I mine Ravencoin? ===<br />
<br />
There is dedicated '''[[mining]]''' page, including links to the opensource mining software for both nVidia and AMD cards.<br />
<br />
=== Can I mine with my CPU / CPU or GPU mining which is better? ===<br />
<br />
CPU mining is not worthwhile anymore. You can mine with your CPU using the wallet (''setgenerate true -1'' to use all your CPU however you are very unlikely to mine a block). The network hash rate is now pretty large so a single CPU isn't going to contribute much. Obviously, if you've got a lot of CPU's or high-end ones you may earn get lucky. Generally, people are running GPU's in one of the [[Pools]].<br />
<br />
=== Which miner is best? ===<br />
<br />

[https://ravenforum.org/topic/23/enemy-1-03-vs-suprminer-1-6-vs-enemy-1-05-test-results Enemy vs Suprminer] comparison of 2 versions of Enemy miner and Suprminer<br />
<br />
=== Which pool is best? ===<br />
<br />
All the [[Pools]] are pretty good, and as with most things tech, they all have issues from time to time. On average you'll get a larger share of fewer blocks with the smaller pools and a smaller share of more blocks with the larger pools. There are support channels for most of the pools on discord. The pools can be compared [https://www.rvnstats.info/d/TcDzUYmmz/x16r-ravencoin-mining-pool-statistics-v1-3 here].<br />
<br />
Mining on a big pool will give us many tiny payouts, vs mining on a small pool will give us fewer large payouts. Over time it will average out and we will earn the same amount of coins.<br />
<br />
A good recommendation when choosing a pool is any pool not in the top 3 highest hashrate, but any other pool with at least around 0,5% of network hash rate so the pool will hit some blocks each day. Or if we want to help build up a tiny pool, go for an even smaller one.<br />
<br />
The reason we want to not go for the pools with the highest hashrate is to spread the hash and secure our network. Read up on [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Majority_attack 51% attack here].<br />
<br />
=== When do we get paid ===<br />
<br />
Payouts come from a block found by the pool that we have valid shares on. After a block is found it needs to be confirmed by the 100 next blocks, and since block time is 1min for Ravencoin this is about 100 mins. Coins are called immature while being confirmed. Once the coins are confirmed they are spendable, and will be paid out by the pool on the next payout cycle. Coins are often called matured coins at this stage.<br />
<br />
=== I just started mining 30mins ago, why are my rewards so low ===<br />
<br />
Pplns vs pps, is often the answer. In a pool with pplns - Pay Per Last N Shares - we build up over rounds(N) our share in the reward(block). Suprnova uses 20 - 25 rounds for N.<br />
<br />
PPS - Pay Per Share, the sum of our submitted (accepted) shares divided by total submitted shares on the pool by other miners, gives us our percentage of the next block.<br />
<br />
yiimp based pools (such as ravenminer.com, yiimp.eu, cryptopool.party) by default use a custom approach to rewards. All shares are saved for as long as it takes to find a block. Then, when a block is found: 1) rewards are divided proportionally among valid shares. 2) Valid shares older than 5 minutes prior to the block being found are then deleted. [https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/next/web/yaamp/core/backend/blocks.php] This has the effect that all miners get close to a fresh start with each new block.<br />
<br />
Pplns will give us more rewards in long term mining. [https://minergate.com/faq/difference-between-pps-and-pplns Read more here] and [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39832 here.]<br />
<br />
=== Why is the difficulty going up / down? ===<br />
The network tries to maintain 1 block being solved per minute over 2016 blocks before retargeting difficulty. If miners have found more than 1 block per minute during the previous 2016 blocks the network difficulty will go up to bring the average block time back to 1 per minute. If miners are solving blocks slower the opposite will happen.<br />
<br />
=== Why is my hash rate going up and down? ===<br />
The X16r algo consists of 16 different algos, and the order is based on the last 16 bits of the last block. We can get a better displayed hashrate on ccminer/nevermore by adding the following to the end of the bat file:<br />
-N 600<br />
<br />
=== What hash rate should I be getting for my cards? ===<br />
<br />
There are some conservative numbers on [http://whattomine.com/ WhatToMine]<br />
<br />
These are average hashrates (from multiple cards) from Nevermore 0.2.2 and Suprminer 1.6 with -N 600 (and more than 600 accepted shares):<br />
Nvidia 1060 6gb pl 80%, core +125, mem +200 = 7-7,7MH/s<br />

<br />
== How do I do <topic here> with the wallet? ==<br />
Many questions about the wallet can be answered by searching the same question for the Bitcoin wallet. The [https://en.bitcoin.it Bitcoin wiki] and [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/bitcoin Bitcoin on StackOverflow] are two great resources which might already have answers to your question.<br />

<br />
'''[[Best practices]]''' for how to keep your coins safe.<br />
=== How do I get a receiving address? ===<br />
At the time of writing the Raven QT wallet is largely the same as the Bitcoin QT wallet - there are numerous guides via Google on setting up the Bitcoin QT wallet.<br />
<br />
In summary, install the wallet then:<br />
<br />
For a receiving address:<br />
<br />
Click File > Receiving Address > New, enter a name for your address, click OK - you should then see your new address<br />
<br />
There is a more detailed [[Best_practices#General_wallet_guide|General wallet guide]] on Best practices page.<br />

[https://ravenforum.org/topic/21/the-private-key-and-the-wallet the private key and the wallet]<br />
<br />
=== How do I set up the wallet to be a full node (and why would I?) ===<br />
A full node validates transactions and blocks, which makes the whole Ravencoin network stronger. You can enable this by opening up the wallet and looking under Settings > Options > Network and making sure both "Map port using UPnP" and "Allow incoming connections" are both checked.<br />

__TOC__<br />
<br />
== Coin launch / structure ==<br />
<br />
=== Why is RVN any better than <insert coin here>? ===<br />
Some thoughts about the potential future direction of RVN have been captured in [[The Fenton Files]] ''(I'd personally really recommend a read through of that to help understand the background)''<br />
<br />
=== Where's the whitepaper? ===<br />
A paper describing the intention for Ravencoin is available on the Ravencoin.org site [https://ravencoin.org/Ravencoin.pdf here] other papers are also linked [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ here]<br />
<br />
=== What's the roadmap for Ravencoin? ===<br />
[https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md]<br />
<br />
All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/]<br />
<br />
=== Are there Masternodes? ===<br />
No. <br />
<br />
=== When is the ICO? ===<br />
There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-case.<br />
<br />
=== Was it pre-mined? ===<br />
No - it was [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 announced on twitter] and discussed at a few meetups prior to that. There's a timeline of some of the events [https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1NKsWx5sSG90GjbbwZaOav6D_bAOdnlBjPBAjJtZzXr4&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650 here]<br />
<br />
Further points about the launch where made on [https://raven.wiki/w/index.php?title=The_Fenton_Files&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop#6_May_2018_-_Telegram Telegram on the 6th May 2018]<br />
<br />
===The devs should do <insert topic here> / Why aren't the devs doing <insert topic here>? ===<br />
This is an open source project. You can do whatever you want with it. Read [[The Fenton Files]] for more thoughts about the coin. The devs are focused on the code development inline with the roadmap. Members of the community can build tools and websites around the coin that they think could be useful.<br />
<br />
=== How come some people have 100,000's if it wasn't premined? ===<br />
There were people that started when difficulty was well under 100 rather than where it is now. Some people rented hundreds of cloud CPU's to mine it before the GPU miner software was developed for the community. Some still have huge gpu rigs pointed at pools. All coins in circulation have been generated the same way, fair mining.<br />
<br />
=== What's the max supply? ===<br />
21 billion<br />
<br />
=== What's the halving rate? ===<br />
The same as bitcoin so every 4 years or so. 2100000 blocks (1block / min * 60mins * 24hrs * 365 days * 4yrs)<br />
<br />
https://ravencoin.org/halving/ read more here.<br />
<br />
=== When will all be mined? ===<br />
Tron one of the core team devs explained it on Telegram on the 30th March 2018 as follows: <br />
"Half of Raven will be mined over the next 4 years or so. Then another quarter over the next 4 years. Then an eighth over the next 4 years, etc. Most will be mined over the next 24 years, but it will continue for another 120 years or so. Mining fees should support the Raven network as the block reward decreases."<br />
<br />
== Trading Questions ==<br />
<br />
=== When will RVN be on more / better exchanges? ===<br />
<br />
At the time of writing: when the exchanges decide to list it, or someone pays to list it. It's an open source project so anyone can pay for it's listing on any exchange.<br />
<br />
There's an exchange liaison group on discord with a number of people talking to exchanges. The group has a working document [[Exchanges]] and an [[Exchange FAQ]] on this wiki.<br />
<br />
=== What's the going rate for RVN? ===<br />
<br />
Check the exchanges above.<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
<br />
=== How do I mine Ravencoin? ===<br />
<br />
There is dedicated '''[[mining]]''' page, including links to the opensource mining software for both nVidia and AMD cards.<br />
<br />
=== Can I mine with my CPU / CPU or GPU mining which is better? ===<br />
<br />
Yes you can mine with your CPU however you're unlikely to earn many Ravencoin. The net hash is now pretty large so a single CPU isn't going to contribute much. Obviously, if you've got a lot of CPU's or high-end ones you may earn more. Generally, people are running GPU's in one of the [[Pools]].<br />
<br />
=== Which miner is best? ===<br />
<br />

[https://ravenforum.org/topic/23/enemy-1-03-vs-suprminer-1-6-vs-enemy-1-05-test-results Enemy vs Suprminer] comparison of 2 versions of Enemy miner and Suprminer<br />
<br />
=== Which pool is best? ===<br />
<br />
All the [[Pools]] are pretty good, and as with most things tech, they all have issues from time to time. On average you'll get a larger share of fewer blocks with the smaller pools and a smaller share of more blocks with the larger pools. There are support channels for most of the pools on discord. The pools can be compared [https://www.rvnstats.info/d/TcDzUYmmz/x16r-ravencoin-mining-pool-statistics-v1-3 here].<br />
<br />
Mining on a big pool will give us many tiny payouts, vs mining on a small pool will give us fewer large payouts. Over time it will average out and we will earn the same amount of coins.<br />
<br />
A good recommendation when choosing a pool is any pool not in the top 3 highest hashrate, but any other pool with at least around 0,5% of network hash rate so the pool will hit some blocks each day. Or if we want to help build up a tiny pool, go for an even smaller one.<br />
<br />
The reason we want to not go for the pools with the highest hashrate is to spread the hash and secure our network. Read up on [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Majority_attack 51% attack here].<br />
<br />
=== When do we get paid ===<br />
<br />
Payouts come from a block found by the pool that we have valid shares on. After a block is found it needs to be confirmed by the 100 next blocks, and since block time is 1min for Ravencoin this is about 100 mins. Coins are called immature while being confirmed. Once the coins are confirmed they are spendable, and will be paid out by the pool on the next payout cycle. Coins are often called matured coins at this stage.<br />
<br />
=== I just started mining 30mins ago, why are my rewards so low ===<br />
<br />
Pplns vs pps, is often the answer. In a pool with pplns - Pay Per Last N Shares - we build up over rounds(N) our share in the reward(block). Suprnova uses 20 - 25 rounds for N.<br />
<br />
PPS - Pay Per Share, the sum of our submitted (accepted) shares divided by total submitted shares on the pool by other miners, gives us our percentage of the next block.<br />
<br />
yiimp based pools (such as ravenminer.com, yiimp.eu, cryptopool.party) by default use a custom approach to rewards. All shares are saved for as long as it takes to find a block. Then, when a block is found: 1) rewards are divided proportionally among valid shares. 2) Valid shares older than 5 minutes prior to the block being found are then deleted. [https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/next/web/yaamp/core/backend/blocks.php] This has the effect that all miners get close to a fresh start with each new block.<br />
<br />
Pplns will give us more rewards in long term mining. [https://minergate.com/faq/difference-between-pps-and-pplns Read more here] and [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39832 here.]<br />
<br />
=== Why is the difficulty going up / down? ===<br />
The network tries to maintain 1 block being solved per minute over 2016 blocks before retargeting difficulty. If miners have found more than 1 block per minute during the previous 2016 blocks the network difficulty will go up to bring the average block time back to 1 per minute. If miners are solving blocks slower the opposite will happen.<br />
<br />
=== Why is my hash rate going up and down? ===<br />
The X16r algo consists of 16 different algos, and the order is based on the last 16 bits of the last block. We can get a better displayed hashrate on ccminer/nevermore by adding the following to the end of the bat file:<br />
-N 600<br />
<br />
=== What hash rate should I be getting for my cards? ===<br />
<br />
There are some conservative numbers on [http://whattomine.com/ WhatToMine]<br />
<br />
These are average hashrates (from multiple cards) from Nevermore 0.2.2 and Suprminer 1.6 with -N 600 (and more than 600 accepted shares):<br />

Many questions about the wallet can be answered by searching the same question for the Bitcoin wallet. The [https://en.bitcoin.it Bitcoin wiki] and [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/bitcoin Bitcoin on StackOverflow] are two great resources which might already have answers to your question.<br />

=== How do I get a receiving address? ===<br />
At the time of writing the Raven QT wallet is largely the same as the Bitcoin QT wallet - there are numerous guides via Google on setting up the Bitcoin QT wallet.<br />
<br />
In summary, install the wallet then:<br />
<br />
For a receiving address:<br />
<br />
Click File > Receiving Address > New, enter a name for your address, click OK - you should then see your new address<br />

}}<br />
<br />
''DRAFT WORK IN PROGRESS''<br />
<br />
This page will help you create assets and send them on the Ravencoin blockchain. It assumes you have installed the Ravencoin software and synchronized the blockchain.<br />
<br />
If you've not done the above and need a simple guide on how to get started, I'd recommend the Tron Black [https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-getting-started-96ab8e3e919b getting started] article on Medium.<br />
<br />
== Creating Assets ==<br />
<br />
# Open your Ravencoin Wallet<br />
# Click on the Assets tab.<br />
# Click the Create Asset button.<br />
# Leave address blank (for advanced users)<br />
# Choose a name for your asset (all uppercase) between 3 characters and 30 characters long - click Check Availability - if you get a green Valid Asset message you are good to carry on.<br />
# Enter a Quantity — any number between 1 and 21,000,000,000<br />
# Set the Units to 0 (for indivisible), or 8 (very divisible), or somewhere in-between.<br />
# Leave reissuable checked unless you’re sure of your other choices. [https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-to-reissue-or-not-to-reissue-67452b449f91 Tron Black to reissue or not]<br />
# You can ignore the [https://ipfs.io/ IPFS] hash field, if you want to associate a file on IPFS to your asset this is a [https://medium.com/@tronblack/ravencoin-proof-of-promises-d603f3e04b8f good read]<br />
# Hit Create Asset and Check the confirmation details and if all is OK, click Yes and then OK.<br />
# You'll now need to wait for it to be mined into a block - on average this should only take a minute or two.<br />
# You can now go back to the Overview tab and wait for your asset to show up in your list of assets.<br />
<br />

<br />
<youtube>dJqH73Ql_tQ</youtube><br />
<br />
== Sending Assets ==<br />
<br />
# Select the Assets tab in the Ravencoin QT wallet (each asset has both the "tokens" (MYTOKEN) and "an ownership token" (MYTOKEN!), the Orange AA indicates the ownership token).<br />
# Select the asset you want to send from the dropdown list of assets (if you want to transfer ownership of the token name click the orange AA....use caution as this will send all control of the token)<br />
# Get the address you want to send your tokens to.<br />
# Copy/paste the address into ‘Pay To:’<br />
# Set the amount of the asset to send.<br />
# Hit Send and Yes to the confirmation.<br />

<br />
Economics of token creation - raven ends up being exactly the same issuance schedule as Bitcoin but with this perpetual drain on total supply in the form of whatever is burned.<br />
<br />
That-/ and the fact that it’s real 100% pow coins getting burned - that means RVN assets have sort of a neat double POW / a real asset (energy) has been burned to allow assets to exist <br />
<br />
This gives them value. Not much, it’s tiny. But it does exist and that’s very different than other projects and very fascinating.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==09 Nov 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
Talking your own book is exactly ethical and legal— especially if disclosed. It’s one of the purest form of ethical interaction in commerce.<br />
Some had to not only risk public reputation to support this coin but also give miners over $ of my capital to get the coins we own. So a miner could have dumped on us and I’d be the one conned.<br />
Someone being well known or ostk backing some dev is also not relevant. Oprah or Andreas could mention this coin for five seconds and instantly have more influence than paper authors. If Greg Maxwell came and said something was a security risk, people would listen etc etc. that’s how a real open source project works. <br />
In a fair launch like this it’s almost impossible to have one party have the upper hand. That’s not marketing talk or something to pump ravens structure — that’s just the truth.<br />
Projects with a fair & open launch are literally a gift to the users — anything created from those projects is created by fair work to the people. It’s absolutely incomparable to something that raised money.<br />
<br />
Nothing wrong with raising money by the way but it’s utterly and completely different from giving away something for free. It’s decentralized versus centralized. Permissioned versus free.<br />
<br />
It’s the very core of our industry. A foundational core of what open source / decentralized/ cypherpunk networks can be. <br />
<br />
Now ravencoin may be stupid, a bad idea, it may fail, it may break, it may have unforeseen problems or it might just be outpaced by any of a dozen projects trying to do the same. All those are potentially valid debates. —- but there’s just no reasonable way to say this project wasn’t fair. It’s provable on the blockchain that this was the most widely participated in and fastest growing network in history.<br />
<br />
One may think raven is a weak project but it’s fairness is completely undeniable— if someone doesn’t believe that then they either don’t understand or believe in crypto or they don’t fully understand how this project works.<br />
<br />
By the way:: we need to spread that far and wide. People should understand that this is their project — anyone can build on it <br />
<br />
All this work we’ve done:: it’s free! All the code, the network — all that’s been invested — it all belongs to all members of the community. Anyone can use it and any one can benefit from this network. <br />
<br />
Now for 500 RVN you can create a permanent asset backed by this absolutely massive amount of hashpower. That asset can do all kinds of cool stuff. <br />
<br />
This is amazing. People don’t even see it yet.<br />
<br />
The structure is a key part. No leaders, no rulers, no centralized parties. That’s best practices. It’s harder.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==17 Oct 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
New folks be sure to <br />
<br />
1) download the latest wallet - recognize that this is YOUR project - it’s open source and NOT controlled by any specific people - you can build on this and use it without permission!<br />
<br />
2) start mining — with a gpu you can get some coins to use and reserve names with but even if not then it still helps the network <br />
<br />
3) running a full mining node helps strengthen the coin and helps everyone <br />
<br />
4) download testnet NOW and mess with creating assets (!) this way you are ready for: <br />
<br />
5) be ready to create real assets after mainnet launches on Oct 31 - you only get one shot at each asset name<br />
<br />
6) register names you can use (if you register a brand name please consider giving it to the brand owner if they ask, this helps the network)<br />
<br />
7) imho best early tokens will be game and experiments - fun things — this is still early stage and experimental — will be ready for things like securities once lots of testing in the live world — don’t take unwise financial risks - this is an experiment!- have fun and build something cool<br />
<br />
== 05 Oct 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
The entire structure of ravencoin is VERY different from almost every other project — so it takes a lot of learning<br />
Thanks to all who participate<br />
----<br />
the thing is that Ravencoin is a protocol not a company — this is why no partnerships -// not because they aren’t valuable but because they are not necessary <br />
Ravencoin doesn’t have partnerships with companies because 1) there’s no one to make such a partnership 2) the companies and devs wanting to build on this don’t need anyone’s permission - they can just build <br />
<br />
This is a good model — imho it’s the best model<br />
----<br />
Finding the right balance of how much to talk about this project is hard<br />
----<br />
Software is allowed to be centralized.<br />
<br />
When people say this isn’t it’s not because they are lying to pretend something — it’s because it’s accurate.<br />
----<br />
The main misunderstanding seems to be that ravencoin is controlled or directed by Medici or tZero <br />
<br />
It’s just not the case <br />
<br />
This isn’t some claim that someone is trying to make to comply with some rule — its the actual truth. Also there is no law that this would be relevant for — the idea that a company working on an open source project “makes it a security” is silly and it’s super insulting<br />
<br />
Whether raven is centrally controlled or has corporate involvement / oversight / investment etc do not make it a security anyway — that entire line of thinking is based on faulty logic and not understanding now Ravencoin works or was issued <br />
<br />
Ravencoin was released for free exactly like Litecoin — because it was never sold it was not an offering<br />
<br />
Even if it had one person as a ceo and even if that one person worked for Medici it would not matter —- still not a security<br />
----<br />
my time doesn’t belong to you. Usually when people write articles and mention someone they get quotes from them and check for accuracy first —- I do what I can to give accurate info.<br />
<br />
I waste hours on this and the only result is time wasted<br />
----<br />
<br />
It doesn’t matter if something it centralized<br />
----<br />
That doesn’t make it a security<br />
----<br />
A coin being centralized or controlled by a company matters when the company or coin raises money - a project like Raven is completely different<br />
----<br />
there’s nothing whatsoever “hinging” on that — that’s crazy talk. <br />
<br />
No reasonable or knowledgeable person I’ve heard of considers RVN a security. If they do then :shrug:♂️ Litecoin and Bitcoin would be as well. It’s insane<br />
<br />
... no — not at all.<br />
<br />
Ridiculous<br />
<br />
This all stems from people who don’t understand securities<br />
----<br />
There’s tons of info out there<br />
Not sure why people assume a conspiracy<br />
There’s no one “at the top” There’s no one “worried” <br />
<br />
It’s REALLLY key to understand that this is an open source, decentralized project —- there is no person or people or corporation running it <br />
<br />
There is no conspiracy etc<br />
People just work in their own interests<br />
----<br />
>>>>Ravencoin is not an entity at all <<<<<br />
----<br />
What matters is whether ravencoin can and does work<br />
<br />
----<br />
Crap projects have an interest in promoting “partnerships” and stuff — actual protocols don’t<br />
----<br />
''(In reference (I think) to Medici / Overstock / RVN)'' I’ve said 100 times that they aren’t related — even made videos about it<br />
----<br />
Rvn is better than ever - amazing - one of the strongest projects ever<br />
----<br />
Because raven isn’t like that and isn’t a corporate project with “deals” and “agreements” / joint ventures and that kind of ico crap<br />
----<br />
Medici donates dev time<br />
Which is great<br />
<br />
<br />
But people assume much more of a corporate tie<br />
<br />
<br />
Which is a shame<br />
----<br />
Not a gift from MV<br />
<br />
<br />
MV gifts some dev<br />
----<br />
Big difference<br />
----<br />
There’s an impression that tZero and raven fit together in some special way or work together or that one platform is being designed for the other<br />
----<br />
''(In reference to an article speculating on the connection between various OSTK / MV projects and RVN)'' thanks! I’m not a fan of the screen shot from discord — I’ve tried to make clear many times that the projects really are not related — that screen shot taken on its own and out of the context of its convo seems like I’m winking and being coy or something imho <br />
Basically it was in reply to people who think the opposite: which is that tZero has nothing to do with rvn and will never list it because they are competitors or something <br />
Neither is true <br />
<br />
It’s really not a corporate coin -/ existed before anyone at tZero heard of it and before I joined the board <br />
<br />
There’s no team of folks at tZero working on raven and it defiantly wasn’t designed by tZero or created for some tZero purpose<br />
----<br />
Yes but ostk owns a mess of stuff and there’s no major direction from ostk to any portfolio cos to support ravencoin<br />
----<br />
TZero and ravencoin are much less related than people assume<br />
<br />

Bruce Fenton (Discord):<br />
<br />
I didn’t mention Raven because as soon as you mention a specific product at certain events people stop listening and are closed minded<br />
<br />
Also so many people don’t even understand tokenized securities that it’s best to explain that first<br />
<br />
Once they understand this concept then Rvn makes more sense<br />
<br />
== 12 Sept 2018 - Telegram ==<br />
<br />
<br />
Bruce Fenton:<br />
Because this is protocol development not something like an ICO scam <br />
<br />
Ravencoin is a protocol — that’s it — it’s software<br />
<br />
There is NO ONE to “make announcements” or “sign partnerships”<br />
<br />
It’s open source - for all community members to contribute how they wish — this is a VERY VERY different model than centralized projects who did ICOs etc <br />
<br />
If you are expecting centralized sales, marketing, announcements — that will never happen with this project and people should know that <br />
<br />
What the project does do is focus on building secure and useful software— anyone can contribute and decide if they want to run that software<br />
<br />
== 25 Aug 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
consensus works in open source by open discussion over what code to run<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Everyone should contribute to the discussion<br />
<br />
There is no division between devs and non devs - there is no special authority who bestows the title “developer” - it’s just based on what code people run and who decides to run what they choose<br />
<br />
So we don’t say “just do what the devs say” because there are no specific “devs” with any official role - just people who have done a lot of work and implemented the vision in the paper<br />
<br />
Anyone can be a dev<br />
<br />
Anyone on this page can write code<br />
<br />
And call themselves a dev<br />
<br />
No one has authority over any other<br />
<br />
We the users and holders have the authority by deciding what code to run<br />
<br />
So if you say “trust the devs” the first question one needs to ask is “who? / which devs”<br />
<br />
The way to flush that out is by discussion<br />
<br />
Open and free discussion<br />
<br />
There’s also no special authority for any other person - no ceo or founder or master node or author or dev has special power or authority<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
But main point is that this is open source — there is no authority<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
We don’t want to ever discourage discussion — especially over security related issues<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
All this project is is a group of people choosing to run code based on what they think Ravencoin means and what code is effective for that definition — every person has the right to discuss what they think that vision is or means<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
The term hoi polloi is funny but it’s the antithesis of what open source is about — there is no “commoners” or higher class of people <br />
<br />
There’s no special category called developers <br />
<br />
It’s not ideal to say that people should defer to devs — that’s got a lot of issues I can explain — <br />
<br />
what if a new dev joins tomorrow and creates the code to change the supply to 5 trillion with an insta mine of 1 trillion to himself and burning all addresses bringing in R5?<br />
<br />
Would you say “stay in your lane, don’t discuss forks”? Of course not - it’s not what the coin is <br />
<br />
It’s super relevant and key to discuss things like hard forks — any hard fork changes the consensus mechanism and the rules which everyone on the network previously agreed to <br />
<br />
So it’s really a big responsibility for every user to know and care what all code changes are<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
There’s also a HUGE difference between non technical people discussing technical matters and overall DESIGN matters<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
You won’t see me talking specific code almost ever — it’s not my area of expertise <br />
<br />
But overall economics, functionality and design is an area of expertise I have for this coin — Andy one can develop expertise and have opinions on the direction — anyone can choose to listen or not - and run what they want based on a combo of vision and capabilities and functions with the specific code<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Well this is why consensus is so important<br />
<br />
Just something to plan for — for the future<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
<br />
We can all continually improve the quality of review of code changes<br />
<br />
Bitcoin<br />
<br />
Bitcoin system has worked best and that’s what Ravencoin is developed after<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Bitcoin has made many leaps forward on this - there are lots of contributors and discussions<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
@name — well one thing is that there isn’t and shouldn’t be much of a line between “devs” and “the community” —- devs ARE the community and the community is devs in this project — there is no separate wall<br />
<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
You don’t need to just “speak with a Bitcoin dev” you can BE a Bitcoin dev by simply submitting code<br />
<br />
Secret sauce of Bitcoin is no leaders<br />
<br />
No authority<br />
<br />
Consensus<br />
<br />
Same with Ravencoin-<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
The system is working well as it is — I don’t see any problems at all — just giving thoughts on best practices and ideas for the future — there are several things we learned from this hard fork which can be improved on next time - mainly around communicating<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
There’s some bad habits from ICOS where people come in to protocol projects looking for leaders or thinking a central authority makes all decisions<br />
<br />
----<br />
It’s wise to plan for contentious forks<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
It’s wise to plan for contentious forks<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
And have healthy debate over all changes<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Forks also present a risk — every code change presents a possibility of unforeseen consequences<br />

Chatturga:<br />
The v2.0.3 binaries are available to download on the ravencoin github. Assuming that everything continues to run smoothly, and no significant bugs need to be addressed, this is the version that will activate DGW and BIP9/RIP2 consensus voting for the asset layer. The devs recommend updating to this version soon (before block 338778), with a particular emphasis toward pool owners and exchanges. I'll reach out to those people at the end of the day since the devs want to do a bit more testing.<br />

'' Tron ''<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Ravencoin is a protocol platform for assets and will work with anybody's infrastructure. Additional requirements can always be added by exchanges, or issuers, but are not native to the asset protocol.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
You’re absolutely right. We are watching the issue closely. To put it in perspective though, our block times have been roughly 1.5x the speed of BTC during the worst of it. We have already switched to DGW on testnet and Ravencoin is slated to move to DGW on mainnet at the end of October. Our primary concern is not the code, that’s already done. Our primary concern is not allowing the chain to split. A chain split would cause far more damage and confusion than 5 minute blocks. The diff swings are a result of being profitable, then not, then profitable again, in an undamped oscillation. DGW will fix it, but it requires a hard fork where everyone must upgrade the software. This carries some risk.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
x16r is the hashing algorithm, and is different than the difficulty adjustment algorithm. It will still be x16r. The difficulty adjustment tries to make it so it is 1 minute blocks no matter how many cpus/gpus are mining. Currently it adjusts by looking back 2016 blocks and making a percentage adjustment to bring it inline. There is a 4x limit, which we are close to hitting. It isn’t good but it shouldn’t get much worse.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
RVN will still be RVN. The problem is that anyone that doesn’t upgrade when the algo switches over, will be on a different chain. Imagine the problems if CryptoBridge doesn’t upgrade, or Cryptopia, etc. and they have a different view. A hard fork is just a software upgrade, but it is really important that certain nodes upgrade. We have a managed upgrade already scheduled for the end of Oct that lets everyone decide on their own whether to upgrade and when enough mining nodes have upgraded, it seamlessly switches over at a set percentage.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
No, shorter block times aren’t the problem. Rentable hashpower, and multipools which auto-redirect hashpower to the most profitable coin makes it more difficult to calibrate. That’s what changed.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
The longest chain is the winner. We just need to make sure it is crystal clear which one that is. If we have 1/2 mining power on one chain and 1/2 on another, it gets murky. If that ever happens, just don’t transfer RVN during that time and you’ll be fine. And, if you’re mining, make sure you’re on the longest chain.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
DGW will go a long way towards that. We actually want increased hashing, we just don’t want it coming and going in multi-day intervals.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I don’t think miners using a pool will need to change anything. Just make sure the pool you’re using has upgraded whenever the software is upgraded. Make sure you’re using the latest version to view/store/transfer your RVN.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
My understanding is that there was a Pull Request for RVN on Ledger. I don’t know if/when that will make it into production.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes, unix (linux), Mac, and Windows. We need to make sure the client cross-compiles for all of them.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yeah, there were some awful asset names. I imagine that some of the web explorers and asset marketplaces will want to run names through a filter.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There’s going to be lots of interesting opportunities. I think someone will build a marketplace for asset names.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There’s really only one chain. The problem is that when you change the diff algo, then the version of the software using the old algo sees only old algo blocks as valid, and software using the algo only sees new algo blocks as valid. The “real” one SHOULD be the new algo chain, but there’s no BOSS that says you can’t run older software. So it is really up the users to upgrade and all agree to use the newer software. I can’t compel anyone to upgrade, but it would make economic sense for everyone to use the new software. We can write software that doesn’t change the algorithm until it sees that most miners have upgraded because we can put a version number in the blocks and count the mined blocks. That’s what BIP9 does — Google it if you’re interested in how it works.<br />
<br />

<br />
We’re hiring like crazy. Most of our hires are for tZero, Medici, and Bitsy. If you’re a great developer, you should apply. Bruce is in NH and he visits Utah and we visit him in NH.<br />

<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes. I don’t know how trademark rules would apply. I fought two trademark battles where I felt I was in the right. I won one, and folded the other against a giant “perfect” word processing company.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There is support for that. I’m not in favor of that, in general, but it did make sense for our asset hard fork.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I hope not, because I think it would devalue RVN, but it is certainly a possibility. Interestingly enough, anyone who had RVN before that fork would have RVN and RVC, but I still think it would would be a net negative overall.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Sometimes it is cheaper to mine, and sometimes it is cheaper to buy. Right now it is cheaper to buy — until the diff adjusts. I wrote a paper on how the two are interlinked. https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/bitcoin-value-and-mining-difficulty<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Bruce and I agree that it doesn’t need shilling. Eventually, we’ll need to let more people know it exists and that it is a platform they can build on, but that isn’t even true until the end of October when assets activate on mainnet.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
If there’s a Raven Classic, it probably wont have asset support.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes, we would like RVN to continue to be viable cash. We hope it gets used for rewards (paying all holders of your token in RVN), and for on-chain atomic swaps (paying for assets with RVN where the trade happens all at once).<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I’m not 100% sure. It seems like we’re in a bear market — similar to 2014-2015. Some of it is being sold to buy into RVN, EOS, and ADA, or into ICOs which are still going strong outside the US.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Tron:<br />
I agree - kinda dumb. It is a completely arbitrary line. Enforce rules against outright fraud, but let everyone invest their money any way they choose.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I think there will be sites listing assets for sale. We’ve put “forsale” and “forsale_price” keys in the metadata spec for this reason. Brokers could scan the chain and the meta data to build a website for exchanging asset names.<br />

Sending assets will require a small RVN fee. I’d love to get rid of the fee, but it opens up too many attacks that don’t cost anything.<br />

It’s been wonderful chatting with all of you. Thanks for your support of RVN. I’m working on some python scripts that’ll let you create batches of assets (with associated meta data) from a Google spreadsheet or csv. I’ll make them available next week for everyone to play with. It’ll make it easier for anyone wanting to register multiple assets.<br />

We hope assets will be tradable on decentralized exchanges. I think this will happen organically as soon as some real projects are using the tokens.<br />

Medici has investments in about 14 different companies. I expect some of them will be able to use RVN, but RVN is not being developed in support of any particular project. It has larger ambitions to be a platform for asset issuance with multi-OS support and much easier to use than ERC20.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Tron:<br />
Verhoven RVN should be a currency. We want it to have a value because phase 3 will allow paying token holders in RVN. Imagine a project that's profitable where the early supporters are rewarded (with RVN) based on the percentage of tokens they hold.<br />

I had experience with Counterparty, Mastercoin, colored coins, and open assets which had similar capabilities on top of Bitcoin. It was secure, but clunky because some bitcoin had to be sent with every asset, and the fees became prohibitively high last year.

Testnet will give people a chance to see what has been built and will also allow more contributors to easily contribute and do security testing because the code is published and everyone can be on the same page <br />
<br />
Testnet also allows 2nd and third layer developers to see how the protocol works and build and test apps <br />
<br />
Since the network was built first with ravencoin we already have a massive head start when mainnet is launched (versus if the network genesis and the asset layer were launched together)<br />
<br />
This means that since racencoin already has tons of users, community members and interested parties the usability of the asset layer capabilities increases <br />
<br />
There are a lot of us in the community who can test and build on this protocol <br />
<br />
So - when mainnet launches :rocket: there will be a lot of people ready to jumpstart that network and build on it <br />
<br />
I predict a lot of asset names reserved right away (it will be like domain registration races / land grab)<br />
<br />
When mainnet is launched people will be able to immediately create real assets which will be verified by the ravencoin blockchain<br />

I think Tzero hasn’t announced exactly how they will make listing decisions — there will be lots of factors <br />

Rvn could be appealing to any exchange because it has high interest and volume and is not a security and also its code base is based on Bitcoin so well understood <br />

Rvn is an especially natural fit for exchanges focusing on securities tokens<br />

Hello, everyone. I bring exciting news about the asset layer! Assuming that everything goes smoothly, the binaries to test the asset layer on testnet will be available for download on July 30th. Additionally, the target date for mainnet release has been tentatively set for October 31st. These dates give the community time to find any issues and for PR's to be processed - with October 31st also being the 1 year anniversary of the first Medium article about Ravencoin.<br />
<br />
== 3 July 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
Have I mentioned that this is Game of Thrones?<br />
<br />
GAME OF THRONES!<br />
<br />
This space is very treacherous and risky - there is a ton of uncertainty.<br />
<br />
A coin claiming they will “beat Bitcoin” is not credible — neither is it credible to say Bitcoin has a 100% chance of being both global money and the rails for all tokens with zero exceptions.<br />
<br />
There are a few possible outcomes:<br />
<br />
1) Bitcoin becomes the only chain, all projects become sidechains on Bitcoin - RVN and ALL other coins/ projects die completely <br />
(possible but unlikely / not certain enough to bet on 100%)<br />
<br />
2) Bitcoin dies, other coin or coins / projects serve that need (unlikely) <br />
<br />
3) Bitcoin becomes important money and important chain for tokens but other projects survive and serve large or niche markets <br />
3a Raven is one of these survivors <br />
3b it isn’t <br />
(This is the most likely scenario imho of the 3 — even if I felt an 80% chance of option 1 then it would still be prudent to support other coins in case BTC fails or in case any can develop a niche which serves one area better than BTC)<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
So if option 3 occurred and raven survived then it could be used in even a “small” niche of the possibly deca trillion dollar token market and end up being very important.<br />
<br />
Cross chain atomic swaps and lots of other things will make cooperation between projects make sense — LTC is a good example - the project has never tried to be at odds with Bitcoin.<br />
<br />
Bitcoin was always going to do tokens — that a HQ co like Blockstream is working on this is exciting and validated the entire idea.<br />
Just a month ago all the best “experts” were saying that tokens couldn’t be put on Bitcoin or a fork of Bitcoin — this is specifically why I always used Bitcoin not raven in the periscope video examples on security tokens.<br />
<br />
When we did these demos everyone laughed — well now the smartest devs in the space are doing what we’ve been working on for a while as well (Blockstream has worked on this a long time too)<br />
<br />
It will be great if both Bitcoin and Raven serve markets in tokens successfully - there are certainly plenty of ways that can work — I also think other projects like ada and eos will have a good chance of surviving and several platforms will thrive for different reasons.<br />
<br />
Anyway — being that this is Game of Thrones and in the grand timeline of global money and blockchains - we are early in season 1 ... it’s a good time to be supportive of all projects and focus on building great tech rather than “beating” someone.<br />
Also — most importantly — Blockstream is NOT a competitor of Raven - Blockstream is a company with investors and some top devs and products etc. - Ravencoin is an idea and some code / software which generates a scare digital asset.<br />
<br />
So back to the Blockstream announcement <br />
<br />
...If this is Game of Thrones here we are over at Raven Tower okay — and Adam Back is like the Maester from Fort Block — he just moved in and says he wants to fight white walkers with the weapon he’s been working on —<br />
<br />
Okay I could go on :joy:...<br />
<br />
But seriously, Blockstream is not an enemy to this project - that’s absurd - they are awesome people and high quality cypherpunks and some of the smartest people in the industry. <br />
<br />
The “competitor” isn’t Blockstream it’s Bitcoin (for tokens!) — obviously Bitcoin is the strongest chain and it’s very unlikely raven would replace it — that was never the goal, point or idea (at least from my personal POV or imho)- the better competitor is ETH who actually has serious weaknesses. <br />
<br />
Goal as I’ve always personally seen it is to work on this specific use case on a PROTOCOL level to see if it develops advantages overall — it has had some since day one — <br />
<br />
Just build good stuff and keep focusing <br />
<br />
If you want to attack someone ETH is a better target but even those folks are pretty cool — better to hope the rising tide lifts all boats!!<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Yeah no one should care so much what I say — centralized authorities are bad <br />
<br />
I love this coin and project and community — this is why I’ve given what I think is a fair share of free work to the project — but my activity shouldn’t be so relevant (and neither should anyone else’s)<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
I don’t see it as competition and even if so it would be silly to claim this chain is stronger than Bitcoin - imho far smarter way to look at things is the way LTC and to a lesser extent cardano does: we are all in the same ecosystem<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
I’ve supported raven as best I can and will continue to — I’ve done about 15 speeches and a hundred tweets and 12 interviews and I’ve received death threats and nearly daily criticisms and accusations of being a scammer / pumper because of being such a vocal supporter — I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money on support of raven — I’ve taken time from my family to fly to meet devs and I’ve spent hundreds of hours on everything from writing and research to design to chatting in forums or answering questions.<br />
<br />
I receive zero pay and zero special coins or bonus for any work or commentary I do on Raven —<br />
Every hour I spend on Raven is uncompensated and I have to skip other paying work to do - <br />
<br />
If people think it’s not enough or can do better then by all means hopefully they can step up and be spokespeople also — I offered to help others do so a while ago & will make more ppt etc when I can<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />

<br />
Raven is open source<br />
If you want to compete with a company you can<br />
Or use the code and software how you choose<br />
<br />
== 2nd July 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
I have over 150,000 social media followers and announced Raven to over 2000 conference attendees at crypto conferences including Miami BTC and Texas Bitcoin Conference <br />
It was posted by many others aside from me and retweeted and reposted by many others <br />
<br />
We had 4500 miners within a week and the network grew so fast that solo mining and cpu rigs were obsolete within two weeks<br />
<br />
To claim that no one was on the network and that some secret miner dominated the mining is preposterous and easily provably false <br />
<br />
In the very earliest days the network was widely distributed — the three largest miners (Overstock / Medici and three parties I don’t know who they are) each never reached more than 10-15% of hash power —- and that was only for a short few weeks or so in the earlier days <br />
<br />
Since then the math can easily show that for anyone to have significant network power they would have to spend a significant amount on GPU rigs — the math & metrics behind this are trivial for anyone with a basic understanding of mining and crypto <br />
<br />
It is simply impossible to have had a special advantage on the launch - all anyone could have possibly done is what early miners did:: take a big risk on early equipment-/ <br />
<br />
No one had any advantage whatsoever and there was absolutely no premine or set aside or insta mine at all <br />
<br />
This is what is great about this tech - a blockchain is provable<br />
I guess at the ravencoin annual meeting we can ask early miners to raise hands<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Blockstream is a company — raven is a protocol<br />
<br />
We are not competing with Blockstream<br />

<br />
Talking your own book is exactly ethical and legal— especially if disclosed. It’s one of the purest form of ethical interaction in commerce.<br />
Some had to not only risk public reputation to support this coin but also give miners over $ of my capital to get the coins we own. So a miner could have dumped on us and I’d be the one conned.<br />
Someone being well known or ostk backing some dev is also not relevant. Oprah or Andreas could mention this coin for five seconds and instantly have more influence than paper authors. If Greg Maxwell came and said something was a security risk, people would listen etc etc. that’s how a real open source project works. <br />
In a fair launch like this it’s almost impossible to have one party have the upper hand. That’s not marketing talk or something to pump ravens structure — that’s just the truth.<br />
Projects with a fair & open launch are literally a gift to the users — anything created from those projects is created by fair work to the people. It’s absolutely incomparable to something that raised money.<br />
<br />
Nothing wrong with raising money by the way but it’s utterly and completely different from giving away something for free. It’s decentralized versus centralized. Permissioned versus free.<br />
<br />
It’s the very core of our industry. A foundational core of what open source / decentralized/ cypherpunk networks can be. <br />
<br />
Now ravencoin may be stupid, a bad idea, it may fail, it may break, it may have unforeseen problems or it might just be outpaced by any of a dozen projects trying to do the same. All those are potentially valid debates. —- but there’s just no reasonable way to say this project wasn’t fair. It’s provable on the blockchain that this was the most widely participated in and fastest growing network in history.<br />
<br />
One may think raven is a weak project but it’s fairness is completely undeniable— if someone doesn’t believe that then they either don’t understand or believe in crypto or they don’t fully understand how this project works.<br />
<br />
By the way:: we need to spread that far and wide. People should understand that this is their project — anyone can build on it <br />
<br />
All this work we’ve done:: it’s free! All the code, the network — all that’s been invested — it all belongs to all members of the community. Anyone can use it and any one can benefit from this network. <br />
<br />
Now for 500 RVN you can create a permanent asset backed by this absolutely massive amount of hashpower. That asset can do all kinds of cool stuff. <br />
<br />
This is amazing. People don’t even see it yet.<br />
<br />
The structure is a key part. No leaders, no rulers, no centralized parties. That’s best practices. It’s harder.<br />
<br />

New folks be sure to <br />
<br />
1) download the latest wallet - recognize that this is YOUR project - it’s open source and NOT controlled by any specific people - you can build on this and use it without permission!<br />
<br />
2) start mining — with a gpu you can get some coins to use and reserve names with but even if not then it still helps the network <br />
<br />
3) running a full mining node helps strengthen the coin and helps everyone <br />
<br />
4) download testnet NOW and mess with creating assets (!) this way you are ready for: <br />
<br />
5) be ready to create real assets after mainnet launches on Oct 31 - you only get one shot at each asset name<br />
<br />
6) register names you can use (if you register a brand name please consider giving it to the brand owner if they ask, this helps the network)<br />
<br />
7) imho best early tokens will be game and experiments - fun things — this is still early stage and experimental — will be ready for things like securities once lots of testing in the live world — don’t take unwise financial risks - this is an experiment!- have fun and build something cool<br />

<br />
The entire structure of ravencoin is VERY different from almost every other project — so it takes a lot of learning<br />
Thanks to all who participate<br />
----<br />
the thing is that Ravencoin is a protocol not a company — this is why no partnerships -// not because they aren’t valuable but because they are not necessary <br />
Ravencoin doesn’t have partnerships with companies because 1) there’s no one to make such a partnership 2) the companies and devs wanting to build on this don’t need anyone’s permission - they can just build <br />
<br />
This is a good model — imho it’s the best model<br />
----<br />
Finding the right balance of how much to talk about this project is hard<br />
----<br />
Software is allowed to be centralized.<br />
<br />
When people say this isn’t it’s not because they are lying to pretend something — it’s because it’s accurate.<br />
----<br />
The main misunderstanding seems to be that ravencoin is controlled or directed by Medici or tZero <br />
<br />
It’s just not the case <br />
<br />
This isn’t some claim that someone is trying to make to comply with some rule — its the actual truth. Also there is no law that this would be relevant for — the idea that a company working on an open source project “makes it a security” is silly and it’s super insulting<br />
<br />
Whether raven is centrally controlled or has corporate involvement / oversight / investment etc do not make it a security anyway — that entire line of thinking is based on faulty logic and not understanding now Ravencoin works or was issued <br />
<br />
Ravencoin was released for free exactly like Litecoin — because it was never sold it was not an offering<br />
<br />
Even if it had one person as a ceo and even if that one person worked for Medici it would not matter —- still not a security<br />
----<br />
my time doesn’t belong to you. Usually when people write articles and mention someone they get quotes from them and check for accuracy first —- I do what I can to give accurate info.<br />
<br />
I waste hours on this and the only result is time wasted<br />
----<br />
<br />
It doesn’t matter if something it centralized<br />
----<br />
That doesn’t make it a security<br />
----<br />
A coin being centralized or controlled by a company matters when the company or coin raises money - a project like Raven is completely different<br />
----<br />
there’s nothing whatsoever “hinging” on that — that’s crazy talk. <br />
<br />
No reasonable or knowledgeable person I’ve heard of considers RVN a security. If they do then :shrug:♂️ Litecoin and Bitcoin would be as well. It’s insane<br />
<br />
... no — not at all.<br />
<br />
Ridiculous<br />
<br />
This all stems from people who don’t understand securities<br />
----<br />
There’s tons of info out there<br />
Not sure why people assume a conspiracy<br />
There’s no one “at the top” There’s no one “worried” <br />
<br />
It’s REALLLY key to understand that this is an open source, decentralized project —- there is no person or people or corporation running it <br />
<br />
There is no conspiracy etc<br />
People just work in their own interests<br />
----<br />
>>>>Ravencoin is not an entity at all <<<<<br />
----<br />
What matters is whether ravencoin can and does work<br />
<br />
----<br />
Crap projects have an interest in promoting “partnerships” and stuff — actual protocols don’t<br />
----<br />
''(In reference (I think) to Medici / Overstock / RVN)'' I’ve said 100 times that they aren’t related — even made videos about it<br />
----<br />
Rvn is better than ever - amazing - one of the strongest projects ever<br />
----<br />
Because raven isn’t like that and isn’t a corporate project with “deals” and “agreements” / joint ventures and that kind of ico crap<br />
----<br />
Medici donates dev time<br />
Which is great<br />
<br />
<br />
But people assume much more of a corporate tie<br />
<br />
<br />
Which is a shame<br />
----<br />
Not a gift from MV<br />
<br />
<br />
MV gifts some dev<br />
----<br />
Big difference<br />
----<br />
There’s an impression that tZero and raven fit together in some special way or work together or that one platform is being designed for the other<br />
----<br />
''(In reference to an article speculating on the connection between various OSTK / MV projects and RVN)'' thanks! I’m not a fan of the screen shot from discord — I’ve tried to make clear many times that the projects really are not related — that screen shot taken on its own and out of the context of its convo seems like I’m winking and being coy or something imho <br />
Basically it was in reply to people who think the opposite: which is that tZero has nothing to do with rvn and will never list it because they are competitors or something <br />
Neither is true <br />
<br />
It’s really not a corporate coin -/ existed before anyone at tZero heard of it and before I joined the board <br />
<br />
There’s no team of folks at tZero working on raven and it defiantly wasn’t designed by tZero or created for some tZero purpose<br />
----<br />
Yes but ostk owns a mess of stuff and there’s no major direction from ostk to any portfolio cos to support ravencoin<br />
----<br />
TZero and ravencoin are much less related than people assume<br />
<br />

Bruce Fenton (Discord):<br />
<br />
I didn’t mention Raven because as soon as you mention a specific product at certain events people stop listening and are closed minded<br />
<br />
Also so many people don’t even understand tokenized securities that it’s best to explain that first<br />
<br />
Once they understand this concept then Rvn makes more sense<br />
<br />
== 12 Sept 2018 - Telegram ==<br />
<br />
<br />
Bruce Fenton:<br />
Because this is protocol development not something like an ICO scam <br />
<br />
Ravencoin is a protocol — that’s it — it’s software<br />
<br />
There is NO ONE to “make announcements” or “sign partnerships”<br />
<br />
It’s open source - for all community members to contribute how they wish — this is a VERY VERY different model than centralized projects who did ICOs etc <br />
<br />
If you are expecting centralized sales, marketing, announcements — that will never happen with this project and people should know that <br />
<br />
What the project does do is focus on building secure and useful software— anyone can contribute and decide if they want to run that software<br />
<br />
== 25 Aug 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
consensus works in open source by open discussion over what code to run<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Everyone should contribute to the discussion<br />
<br />
There is no division between devs and non devs - there is no special authority who bestows the title “developer” - it’s just based on what code people run and who decides to run what they choose<br />
<br />
So we don’t say “just do what the devs say” because there are no specific “devs” with any official role - just people who have done a lot of work and implemented the vision in the paper<br />
<br />
Anyone can be a dev<br />
<br />
Anyone on this page can write code<br />
<br />
And call themselves a dev<br />
<br />
No one has authority over any other<br />
<br />
We the users and holders have the authority by deciding what code to run<br />
<br />
So if you say “trust the devs” the first question one needs to ask is “who? / which devs”<br />
<br />
The way to flush that out is by discussion<br />
<br />
Open and free discussion<br />
<br />
There’s also no special authority for any other person - no ceo or founder or master node or author or dev has special power or authority<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
But main point is that this is open source — there is no authority<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
We don’t want to ever discourage discussion — especially over security related issues<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
All this project is is a group of people choosing to run code based on what they think Ravencoin means and what code is effective for that definition — every person has the right to discuss what they think that vision is or means<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
The term hoi polloi is funny but it’s the antithesis of what open source is about — there is no “commoners” or higher class of people <br />
<br />
There’s no special category called developers <br />
<br />
It’s not ideal to say that people should defer to devs — that’s got a lot of issues I can explain — <br />
<br />
what if a new dev joins tomorrow and creates the code to change the supply to 5 trillion with an insta mine of 1 trillion to himself and burning all addresses bringing in R5?<br />
<br />
Would you say “stay in your lane, don’t discuss forks”? Of course not - it’s not what the coin is <br />
<br />
It’s super relevant and key to discuss things like hard forks — any hard fork changes the consensus mechanism and the rules which everyone on the network previously agreed to <br />
<br />
So it’s really a big responsibility for every user to know and care what all code changes are<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
There’s also a HUGE difference between non technical people discussing technical matters and overall DESIGN matters<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
You won’t see me talking specific code almost ever — it’s not my area of expertise <br />
<br />
But overall economics, functionality and design is an area of expertise I have for this coin — Andy one can develop expertise and have opinions on the direction — anyone can choose to listen or not - and run what they want based on a combo of vision and capabilities and functions with the specific code<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Well this is why consensus is so important<br />
<br />
Just something to plan for — for the future<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
<br />
We can all continually improve the quality of review of code changes<br />
<br />
Bitcoin<br />
<br />
Bitcoin system has worked best and that’s what Ravencoin is developed after<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Bitcoin has made many leaps forward on this - there are lots of contributors and discussions<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
@name — well one thing is that there isn’t and shouldn’t be much of a line between “devs” and “the community” —- devs ARE the community and the community is devs in this project — there is no separate wall<br />
<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
You don’t need to just “speak with a Bitcoin dev” you can BE a Bitcoin dev by simply submitting code<br />
<br />
Secret sauce of Bitcoin is no leaders<br />
<br />
No authority<br />
<br />
Consensus<br />
<br />
Same with Ravencoin-<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
The system is working well as it is — I don’t see any problems at all — just giving thoughts on best practices and ideas for the future — there are several things we learned from this hard fork which can be improved on next time - mainly around communicating<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
There’s some bad habits from ICOS where people come in to protocol projects looking for leaders or thinking a central authority makes all decisions<br />
<br />
----<br />
It’s wise to plan for contentious forks<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
It’s wise to plan for contentious forks<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
And have healthy debate over all changes<br />

Forks also present a risk — every code change presents a possibility of unforeseen consequences<br />

The v2.0.3 binaries are available to download on the ravencoin github. Assuming that everything continues to run smoothly, and no significant bugs need to be addressed, this is the version that will activate DGW and BIP9/RIP2 consensus voting for the asset layer. The devs recommend updating to this version soon (before block 338778), with a particular emphasis toward pool owners and exchanges. I'll reach out to those people at the end of the day since the devs want to do a bit more testing.<br />

'' Tron ''<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Ravencoin is a protocol platform for assets and will work with anybody's infrastructure. Additional requirements can always be added by exchanges, or issuers, but are not native to the asset protocol.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
You’re absolutely right. We are watching the issue closely. To put it in perspective though, our block times have been roughly 1.5x the speed of BTC during the worst of it. We have already switched to DGW on testnet and Ravencoin is slated to move to DGW on mainnet at the end of October. Our primary concern is not the code, that’s already done. Our primary concern is not allowing the chain to split. A chain split would cause far more damage and confusion than 5 minute blocks. The diff swings are a result of being profitable, then not, then profitable again, in an undamped oscillation. DGW will fix it, but it requires a hard fork where everyone must upgrade the software. This carries some risk.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
x16r is the hashing algorithm, and is different than the difficulty adjustment algorithm. It will still be x16r. The difficulty adjustment tries to make it so it is 1 minute blocks no matter how many cpus/gpus are mining. Currently it adjusts by looking back 2016 blocks and making a percentage adjustment to bring it inline. There is a 4x limit, which we are close to hitting. It isn’t good but it shouldn’t get much worse.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
RVN will still be RVN. The problem is that anyone that doesn’t upgrade when the algo switches over, will be on a different chain. Imagine the problems if CryptoBridge doesn’t upgrade, or Cryptopia, etc. and they have a different view. A hard fork is just a software upgrade, but it is really important that certain nodes upgrade. We have a managed upgrade already scheduled for the end of Oct that lets everyone decide on their own whether to upgrade and when enough mining nodes have upgraded, it seamlessly switches over at a set percentage.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
No, shorter block times aren’t the problem. Rentable hashpower, and multipools which auto-redirect hashpower to the most profitable coin makes it more difficult to calibrate. That’s what changed.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
The longest chain is the winner. We just need to make sure it is crystal clear which one that is. If we have 1/2 mining power on one chain and 1/2 on another, it gets murky. If that ever happens, just don’t transfer RVN during that time and you’ll be fine. And, if you’re mining, make sure you’re on the longest chain.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
DGW will go a long way towards that. We actually want increased hashing, we just don’t want it coming and going in multi-day intervals.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I don’t think miners using a pool will need to change anything. Just make sure the pool you’re using has upgraded whenever the software is upgraded. Make sure you’re using the latest version to view/store/transfer your RVN.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
My understanding is that there was a Pull Request for RVN on Ledger. I don’t know if/when that will make it into production.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes, unix (linux), Mac, and Windows. We need to make sure the client cross-compiles for all of them.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yeah, there were some awful asset names. I imagine that some of the web explorers and asset marketplaces will want to run names through a filter.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There’s going to be lots of interesting opportunities. I think someone will build a marketplace for asset names.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There’s really only one chain. The problem is that when you change the diff algo, then the version of the software using the old algo sees only old algo blocks as valid, and software using the algo only sees new algo blocks as valid. The “real” one SHOULD be the new algo chain, but there’s no BOSS that says you can’t run older software. So it is really up the users to upgrade and all agree to use the newer software. I can’t compel anyone to upgrade, but it would make economic sense for everyone to use the new software. We can write software that doesn’t change the algorithm until it sees that most miners have upgraded because we can put a version number in the blocks and count the mined blocks. That’s what BIP9 does — Google it if you’re interested in how it works.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
We’re hiring like crazy. Most of our hires are for tZero, Medici, and Bitsy. If you’re a great developer, you should apply. Bruce is in NH and he visits Utah and we visit him in NH.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes. I don’t know how trademark rules would apply. I fought two trademark battles where I felt I was in the right. I won one, and folded the other against a giant “perfect” word processing company.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
There is support for that. I’m not in favor of that, in general, but it did make sense for our asset hard fork.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I hope not, because I think it would devalue RVN, but it is certainly a possibility. Interestingly enough, anyone who had RVN before that fork would have RVN and RVC, but I still think it would would be a net negative overall.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Sometimes it is cheaper to mine, and sometimes it is cheaper to buy. Right now it is cheaper to buy — until the diff adjusts. I wrote a paper on how the two are interlinked. https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/bitcoin-value-and-mining-difficulty<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Bruce and I agree that it doesn’t need shilling. Eventually, we’ll need to let more people know it exists and that it is a platform they can build on, but that isn’t even true until the end of October when assets activate on mainnet.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
If there’s a Raven Classic, it probably wont have asset support.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
Yes, we would like RVN to continue to be viable cash. We hope it gets used for rewards (paying all holders of your token in RVN), and for on-chain atomic swaps (paying for assets with RVN where the trade happens all at once).<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I’m not 100% sure. It seems like we’re in a bear market — similar to 2014-2015. Some of it is being sold to buy into RVN, EOS, and ADA, or into ICOs which are still going strong outside the US.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Tron:<br />
I agree - kinda dumb. It is a completely arbitrary line. Enforce rules against outright fraud, but let everyone invest their money any way they choose.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
I think there will be sites listing assets for sale. We’ve put “forsale” and “forsale_price” keys in the metadata spec for this reason. Brokers could scan the chain and the meta data to build a website for exchanging asset names.<br />
<br />

I will share the scripts to allow anyone to register any names they want. I’m excited to see what gets registered.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Tron:<br />
Sending assets will require a small RVN fee. I’d love to get rid of the fee, but it opens up too many attacks that don’t cost anything.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Tron:<br />
It’s been wonderful chatting with all of you. Thanks for your support of RVN. I’m working on some python scripts that’ll let you create batches of assets (with associated meta data) from a Google spreadsheet or csv. I’ll make them available next week for everyone to play with. It’ll make it easier for anyone wanting to register multiple assets.<br />

----<br />

Medici has investments in about 14 different companies. I expect some of them will be able to use RVN, but RVN is not being developed in support of any particular project. It has larger ambitions to be a platform for asset issuance with multi-OS support and much easier to use than ERC20.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Tron:<br />
Verhoven RVN should be a currency. We want it to have a value because phase 3 will allow paying token holders in RVN. Imagine a project that's profitable where the early supporters are rewarded (with RVN) based on the percentage of tokens they hold.<br />

I had experience with Counterparty, Mastercoin, colored coins, and open assets which had similar capabilities on top of Bitcoin. It was secure, but clunky because some bitcoin had to be sent with every asset, and the fees became prohibitively high last year. We've been able to fix these issues because we can make adjustments that the core Bitcoin developers can't make.<br />

I'm in talks with the leadership and developers on that project. We've agreed that Ravencoin is great once they're tokenizing the land. First stages are about recording ownership and Ravencoin doesn't fit that use case as well.<br />

Testnet will give people a chance to see what has been built and will also allow more contributors to easily contribute and do security testing because the code is published and everyone can be on the same page <br />
<br />
Testnet also allows 2nd and third layer developers to see how the protocol works and build and test apps <br />
<br />
Since the network was built first with ravencoin we already have a massive head start when mainnet is launched (versus if the network genesis and the asset layer were launched together)<br />
<br />
This means that since racencoin already has tons of users, community members and interested parties the usability of the asset layer capabilities increases <br />
<br />
There are a lot of us in the community who can test and build on this protocol <br />
<br />
So - when mainnet launches :rocket: there will be a lot of people ready to jumpstart that network and build on it <br />
<br />
I predict a lot of asset names reserved right away (it will be like domain registration races / land grab)<br />
<br />
When mainnet is launched people will be able to immediately create real assets which will be verified by the ravencoin blockchain<br />

Ravencoin as a real open source & fair launched project will never have the captive marketing budget of an ICO — but those projects will never have the tech depth or scalability that the Ravencoin protocol has.<br />
<br />
----<br />
Icos as we know them will not be as big as securities tokens<br />
<br />

<br />
The dlr is a different thing - it’s a specific tool to help crypto interface with existing wall st touting systems <br />
<br />
Aside from this Tzero is also an exchange which will trade security tokens<br />
<br />
==11 July 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
Just one solid exchange would be very relevant<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Rvn took a path more like BTC or ltc<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
I think an exchange will happen<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
There actually is a lot of raven marketing - it’s all pretty much done by volunteer community members bits be trippin etc<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
I think Tzero hasn’t announced exactly how they will make listing decisions — there will be lots of factors <br />
<br />
Rvn could be appealing to any exchange because it has high interest and volume and is not a security and also its code base is based on Bitcoin so well understood <br />
<br />
Rvn is an especially natural fit for exchanges focusing on securities tokens<br />

From @Chatturga<br />
<br />
Hello, everyone. I bring exciting news about the asset layer! Assuming that everything goes smoothly, the binaries to test the asset layer on testnet will be available for download on July 30th. Additionally, the target date for mainnet release has been tentatively set for October 31st. These dates give the community time to find any issues and for PR's to be processed - with October 31st also being the 1 year anniversary of the first Medium article about Ravencoin.<br />
<br />
== 3 July 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
Have I mentioned that this is Game of Thrones?<br />
<br />
GAME OF THRONES!<br />
<br />
This space is very treacherous and risky - there is a ton of uncertainty.<br />
<br />
A coin claiming they will “beat Bitcoin” is not credible — neither is it credible to say Bitcoin has a 100% chance of being both global money and the rails for all tokens with zero exceptions.<br />
<br />
There are a few possible outcomes:<br />
<br />
1) Bitcoin becomes the only chain, all projects become sidechains on Bitcoin - RVN and ALL other coins/ projects die completely <br />
(possible but unlikely / not certain enough to bet on 100%)<br />
<br />
2) Bitcoin dies, other coin or coins / projects serve that need (unlikely) <br />
<br />
3) Bitcoin becomes important money and important chain for tokens but other projects survive and serve large or niche markets <br />
3a Raven is one of these survivors <br />
3b it isn’t <br />
(This is the most likely scenario imho of the 3 — even if I felt an 80% chance of option 1 then it would still be prudent to support other coins in case BTC fails or in case any can develop a niche which serves one area better than BTC)<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
So if option 3 occurred and raven survived then it could be used in even a “small” niche of the possibly deca trillion dollar token market and end up being very important.<br />
<br />
Cross chain atomic swaps and lots of other things will make cooperation between projects make sense — LTC is a good example - the project has never tried to be at odds with Bitcoin.<br />
<br />
Bitcoin was always going to do tokens — that a HQ co like Blockstream is working on this is exciting and validated the entire idea.<br />
Just a month ago all the best “experts” were saying that tokens couldn’t be put on Bitcoin or a fork of Bitcoin — this is specifically why I always used Bitcoin not raven in the periscope video examples on security tokens.<br />
<br />
When we did these demos everyone laughed — well now the smartest devs in the space are doing what we’ve been working on for a while as well (Blockstream has worked on this a long time too)<br />
<br />
It will be great if both Bitcoin and Raven serve markets in tokens successfully - there are certainly plenty of ways that can work — I also think other projects like ada and eos will have a good chance of surviving and several platforms will thrive for different reasons.<br />
<br />
Anyway — being that this is Game of Thrones and in the grand timeline of global money and blockchains - we are early in season 1 ... it’s a good time to be supportive of all projects and focus on building great tech rather than “beating” someone.<br />
Also — most importantly — Blockstream is NOT a competitor of Raven - Blockstream is a company with investors and some top devs and products etc. - Ravencoin is an idea and some code / software which generates a scare digital asset.<br />
<br />
So back to the Blockstream announcement <br />
<br />
...If this is Game of Thrones here we are over at Raven Tower okay — and Adam Back is like the Maester from Fort Block — he just moved in and says he wants to fight white walkers with the weapon he’s been working on —<br />
<br />
Okay I could go on :joy:...<br />
<br />
But seriously, Blockstream is not an enemy to this project - that’s absurd - they are awesome people and high quality cypherpunks and some of the smartest people in the industry. <br />
<br />
The “competitor” isn’t Blockstream it’s Bitcoin (for tokens!) — obviously Bitcoin is the strongest chain and it’s very unlikely raven would replace it — that was never the goal, point or idea (at least from my personal POV or imho)- the better competitor is ETH who actually has serious weaknesses. <br />
<br />
Goal as I’ve always personally seen it is to work on this specific use case on a PROTOCOL level to see if it develops advantages overall — it has had some since day one — <br />
<br />
Just build good stuff and keep focusing <br />
<br />
If you want to attack someone ETH is a better target but even those folks are pretty cool — better to hope the rising tide lifts all boats!!<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Yeah no one should care so much what I say — centralized authorities are bad <br />
<br />
I love this coin and project and community — this is why I’ve given what I think is a fair share of free work to the project — but my activity shouldn’t be so relevant (and neither should anyone else’s)<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
I don’t see it as competition and even if so it would be silly to claim this chain is stronger than Bitcoin - imho far smarter way to look at things is the way LTC and to a lesser extent cardano does: we are all in the same ecosystem<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
I’ve supported raven as best I can and will continue to — I’ve done about 15 speeches and a hundred tweets and 12 interviews and I’ve received death threats and nearly daily criticisms and accusations of being a scammer / pumper because of being such a vocal supporter — I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money on support of raven — I’ve taken time from my family to fly to meet devs and I’ve spent hundreds of hours on everything from writing and research to design to chatting in forums or answering questions.<br />
<br />
I receive zero pay and zero special coins or bonus for any work or commentary I do on Raven —<br />
Every hour I spend on Raven is uncompensated and I have to skip other paying work to do - <br />
<br />
If people think it’s not enough or can do better then by all means hopefully they can step up and be spokespeople also — I offered to help others do so a while ago & will make more ppt etc when I can<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Asset layer test net should be out in July<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Blockstream moving into this is great news for the overall ecosystem<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
It’s a $40 trillion market<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Personally I see it as very different<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Raven is open source<br />
If you want to compete with a company you can<br />
Or use the code and software how you choose<br />
<br />
== 2nd July 2018 - Discord 2 ==<br />
<br />
I have over 150,000 social media followers and announced Raven to over 2000 conference attendees at crypto conferences including Miami BTC and Texas Bitcoin Conference <br />
It was posted by many others aside from me and retweeted and reposted by many others <br />
<br />
We had 4500 miners within a week and the network grew so fast that solo mining and cpu rigs were obsolete within two weeks<br />
<br />
To claim that no one was on the network and that some secret miner dominated the mining is preposterous and easily provably false <br />
<br />
In the very earliest days the network was widely distributed — the three largest miners (Overstock / Medici and three parties I don’t know who they are) each never reached more than 10-15% of hash power —- and that was only for a short few weeks or so in the earlier days <br />
<br />
Since then the math can easily show that for anyone to have significant network power they would have to spend a significant amount on GPU rigs — the math & metrics behind this are trivial for anyone with a basic understanding of mining and crypto <br />
<br />
It is simply impossible to have had a special advantage on the launch - all anyone could have possibly done is what early miners did:: take a big risk on early equipment-/ <br />
<br />
No one had any advantage whatsoever and there was absolutely no premine or set aside or insta mine at all <br />
<br />
This is what is great about this tech - a blockchain is provable<br />
I guess at the ravencoin annual meeting we can ask early miners to raise hands<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Blockstream is a company — raven is a protocol<br />
<br />
We are not competing with Blockstream<br />

|description=Help on troubleshooting some of the issues seen with Ravencoin related software, including the raven-qt wallet and some open source mining software.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
<br />
== Wallet ==<br />
''' Please backup your wallet.dat file before doing anything if you are having trouble accessing your QT wallet. The wallet.dat contains your private keys for each address, without those you will probably lose access to your Ravencoin.'''<br />
<br />
'''Symptoms:'''<br />
<br />
=== Restore wallet ===<br />
==== Quick restore guide ====<br />
<br />
Same steps as [[#Wallet does not sync|Wallet does not sync]] just put back your backup wallet.dat instead.<br />
<br />
==== Full restore guide ====<br />
This guide assumes you are starting fresh on a new computer.<br />
* Start by installing Raven-QT wallet follow [[Best_practices#General_wallet_guide|General wallet guide]] if needed, skip encrypt and backup for now.<br />
* Once you have Raven-qt running and fully synced, quit raven-qt and wait for it to fully exit.<br />
* Open your Data folder, the default location is shown below this guide.<br />
* Move the wallet.dat that is already inside your Data folder (Raven) folder to another location ie. desktop, and put your backup wallet.dat here instead. If you used a memorable name for your backup wallet.dat we need you rename it back to wallet.dat now.<br />
*Launch Raven-qt and you should see your funds available.<br />
<br />
Windows: %AppData%/Roaming/Raven<br />
Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Raven<br />
Linux: ~/.raven<br />
Note that " ~/ " is the home folder for linux and mac, not " / " root.<br />
<br />
=== Wallet does not sync ===<br />
<br />
* Make sure you've got a safe backup of your wallet.dat file<br />
* Make sure you are running latest version of wallet from github<br />
* help > debug > console, and type<br />
addnode electrum-rvn.minermore.com add<br />
addnode rvn.satoshi.org.uk add<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Archive Wallet does not sync guidance ====<br />
The first thing to try is to re download the blockchain.<br />
* Make sure you're running the latest version of the wallet<br />
* Close raven-qt completely, wait for shutdown window to disappear.<br />
* Open %AppData%/Roaming folder and '''move''' Raven folder to desktop.<br />
* Launch raven-qt and wait for blockchain to sync completely, then shut down completely.<br />
* '''Move''' wallet.dat from your old raven folder on our desktop into the freshly created Raven folder in %AppData%/Roaming/.<br />
* Launch raven-qt, and all should be well.<br />
<br />
There is a guide on the [https://ravenforum.org/topic/20/ravencoin-wallet-and-troubleshoot Community forum], and here [https://virtopia.ca/ravencoin-fixing-no-sync-on-wallet/ Fixing no sync].<br />

<br />
=== Crash on start up === <br />
The first thing to try is to re download blockchain. Follow same steps as [[#Wallet does not sync|Wallet does not sync]]<br />
<br />
There is a guide on the [https://ravenforum.org/topic/20/ravencoin-wallet-and-troubleshoot Community forum].<br />
<br />
===Transaction stuck ===<br />
Try deleting the downloaded blockchain, and resync.<br />
<br />
===Extra amount of rvn went missing when I transferred coins out of the wallet===<br />
Try from within the wallet:<br />
Help / Debug Window / Console: and write <br />
listaddressgroupings<br />
This will list all your addresses and their balance. Check for the "missing" amount.<br />
<br />
This appears to be a display issue that happens rarely.<br />
<br />
=== Change data location ===<br />
Registry location <br />
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Raven\Raven-Qt\StrDataDir<br />
Or you can start raven-qt with the flag below, to have it ask again as per initial installation:<br />
-choosedatadir<br />
<br />
=== Transaction to large ===<br />
When the wallet has too many small transactions to a single address, it can cause a issue.<br />
[https://github.com/brian112358/wallet-groomer wallet groomer] Ravencoin fork by Brianmct<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
===All miners===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup.====<br />
Check if Antivirus/Windows defender has deleted your miner.exe file, check if the .exe file is still in your folder. Fix by setting an exception.<br />
<br />
====Crash/reboot after some time====<br />
Check the power limit for the cards, 65% - 85% is common. x16r algo spikes the power draw so we need headroom in available wattage. Remember that the TDP for a card is an average draw of the card and in short spikes the total draw can be much higher. This is why the GPU manufacturers recommends much higher watt PSU than the TDP listed wattage of the cards would otherwise suggest.<br />
<br />
====Naming you Rig on the pool====<br />
On yiimp type pools you can use the password field like:<br />
-p c=RVN,TitanV <br />
,a comma is used to separate arguments, do not use special character or spaces in your rig name. Other pools usually set name by WALLET.rigname like:<br />
-u RT2r9oGxQxbVE1Ji5p5iPgrqpNQLfc8ksH.titanV<br />
<br />
<br />
When troubleshooting it is helpfull to have pause at the end of our bat file, so you can see the errors from console.<br />
ccminer -a x16r -o stratum+tcp://miningpanda.site:3636 -u RBjAZ4fgoXfMC1ujzs7XKreMxJAL1r9fhT.titanV -p c=RVN,titanv -i 20 -N 600<br />
pause<br />
<br />
====Suprnova gives error on launch====<br />
Check that you have created a worker on their webpage and supplied a password.' -u LOGIN.worker -p x ',also check their getting started on rvn.suprnova.cc start page.<br />
<br />
====Hash rate is changing/low====<br />
This is normal as the x16r algo is changing 16 times in each block, determined by the last 16 bytes of the last block. We need to look at a 2-3 hour averages at least to get a better average hash rate to compare, try adding ' -N 600 ' at the end of your bat file, it increases the average reporting time (default is 30).<br />
<br />
====Getting a lot of "rejected" shares====<br />
A rejected share means 2 possibilities: <br />
<br />
1. The submitted share was invalid (bad hash of good data). This is caused by a GPU error on your end.<br />
<br />
2. The submitted share was stale (good hash of bad data). This is caused by latency or lost data over the network between you and the pool.<br />
<br />
If you're tweaking your GPU a lot (customizing power/frequency/voltage/etc.) then try backing down a bit and see if you get less errors. You should also check to make sure connected to the closest pool possible (e.g., don't connect to a pool in Europe if you live in the USA).<br />
<br />
===Nevermore / ccminer===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup====<br />
Check .bat file that name miner at the start is the same as the miner in your folder. Nevermore uses 'ccminer' 2.2.5 might be 'ccminer-x64'. <br />
<br />
<br />
===Sgminer / Avermore===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup====<br />
try adding <br />
--gpu-platform 1 <br />
or <br />
--gpu-platform 2 <br />
Brianmct has a good Getting started wiki on [https://github.com/brian112358/sgminer-x16r/wiki/Getting-Started github]<br />
<br />
====Long startup time====<br />
First time sgminer starts it compiles a kernel for all the cards, it can take several minutes.<br />
<br />

Ravencoin is an open source project. Unlike other projects, most of the content about Ravencoin is community generated and managed. <br />
<br />
There are limited "official" websites and chats, the core dev team are only really focused on the software, with the community building up other tools and projects. <br />
<br />
The page aims to point at some of those resources categorized by core or community run. <br />

}}<br />
<br />
<br />
== Wallet ==<br />
''' Please backup your wallet.dat file before doing anything if you are having trouble accessing your QT wallet. The wallet.dat contains your private keys for each address, without those you will probably lose access to your Ravencoin.'''<br />
<br />
'''Symptoms:'''<br />
<br />
=== Restore wallet ===<br />
==== Quick restore guide ====<br />
<br />
Same steps as [[#Wallet does not sync|Wallet does not sync]] just put back your backup wallet.dat instead.<br />
<br />
==== Full restore guide ====<br />
This guide assumes you are starting fresh on a new computer.<br />
* Start by installing Raven-QT wallet follow [[Best_practices#General_wallet_guide|General wallet guide]] if needed, skip encrypt and backup for now.<br />
* Once you have Raven-qt running and fully synced, quit raven-qt and wait for it to fully exit.<br />
* Open your Data folder, the default location is shown below this guide.<br />
* Move the wallet.dat that is already inside your Data folder (Raven) folder to another location ie. desktop, and put your backup wallet.dat here instead. If you used a memorable name for your backup wallet.dat we need you rename it back to wallet.dat now.<br />
*Launch Raven-qt and you should see your funds available.<br />
<br />
Windows: %AppData%/Roaming/Raven<br />
Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Raven<br />
Linux: ~/.raven<br />
Note that " ~/ " is the home folder for linux and mac, not " / " root.<br />
<br />
=== Wallet does not sync ===<br />
The first thing to try is to re download the blockchain.<br />
* Make sure you're running the latest version of the wallet<br />
* Close raven-qt completely, wait for shutdown window to disappear.<br />
* Open %AppData%/Roaming folder and '''move''' Raven folder to desktop.<br />
* Launch raven-qt and wait for blockchain to sync completely, then shut down completely.<br />
* '''Move''' wallet.dat from your old raven folder on our desktop into the freshly created Raven folder in %AppData%/Roaming/.<br />
* Launch raven-qt, and all should be well.<br />
<br />
There is a guide on the [https://ravenforum.org/topic/20/ravencoin-wallet-and-troubleshoot Community forum], and here [https://virtopia.ca/ravencoin-fixing-no-sync-on-wallet/ Fixing no sync].<br />
<br />
<youtube>8drUXGKPSPw</youtube><br />
<br />
=== Crash on start up === <br />
The first thing to try is to re download blockchain. Follow same steps as [[#Wallet does not sync|Wallet does not sync]]<br />
<br />
There is a guide on the [https://ravenforum.org/topic/20/ravencoin-wallet-and-troubleshoot Community forum].<br />
<br />
===Transaction stuck ===<br />
Try deleting the downloaded blockchain, and resync.<br />
<br />
===Extra amount of rvn went missing when I transferred coins out of the wallet===<br />
Try from within the wallet:<br />
Help / Debug Window / Console: and write <br />
listaddressgroupings<br />
This will list all your addresses and their balance. Check for the "missing" amount.<br />
<br />
This appears to be a display issue that happens rarely.<br />
<br />
=== Change data location ===<br />
Registry location <br />
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Raven\Raven-Qt\StrDataDir<br />
Or you can start raven-qt with the flag below, to have it ask again as per initial installation:<br />
-choosedatadir<br />
<br />
=== Transaction to large ===<br />
When the wallet has too many small transactions to a single address, it can cause a issue.<br />
[https://github.com/brian112358/wallet-groomer wallet groomer] Ravencoin fork by Brianmct<br />
<br />
== Mining ==<br />
===All miners===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup.====<br />
Check if Antivirus/Windows defender has deleted your miner.exe file, check if the .exe file is still in your folder. Fix by setting an exception.<br />
<br />
====Crash/reboot after some time====<br />
Check the power limit for the cards, 65% - 85% is common. x16r algo spikes the power draw so we need headroom in available wattage. Remember that the TDP for a card is an average draw of the card and in short spikes the total draw can be much higher. This is why the GPU manufacturers recommends much higher watt PSU than the TDP listed wattage of the cards would otherwise suggest.<br />
<br />
====Naming you Rig on the pool====<br />
On yiimp type pools you can use the password field like:<br />
-p c=RVN,TitanV <br />
,a comma is used to separate arguments, do not use special character or spaces in your rig name. Other pools usually set name by WALLET.rigname like:<br />
-u RT2r9oGxQxbVE1Ji5p5iPgrqpNQLfc8ksH.titanV<br />
<br />
<br />
When troubleshooting it is helpfull to have pause at the end of our bat file, so you can see the errors from console.<br />
ccminer -a x16r -o stratum+tcp://miningpanda.site:3636 -u RBjAZ4fgoXfMC1ujzs7XKreMxJAL1r9fhT.titanV -p c=RVN,titanv -i 20 -N 600<br />
pause<br />
<br />
====Suprnova gives error on launch====<br />
Check that you have created a worker on their webpage and supplied a password.' -u LOGIN.worker -p x ',also check their getting started on rvn.suprnova.cc start page.<br />
<br />
====Hash rate is changing/low====<br />
This is normal as the x16r algo is changing 16 times in each block, determined by the last 16 bytes of the last block. We need to look at a 2-3 hour averages at least to get a better average hash rate to compare, try adding ' -N 600 ' at the end of your bat file, it increases the average reporting time (default is 30).<br />
<br />
====Getting a lot of "rejected" shares====<br />
A rejected share means 2 possibilities: <br />
<br />
1. The submitted share was invalid (bad hash of good data). This is caused by a GPU error on your end.<br />
<br />
2. The submitted share was stale (good hash of bad data). This is caused by latency or lost data over the network between you and the pool.<br />
<br />
If you're tweaking your GPU a lot (customizing power/frequency/voltage/etc.) then try backing down a bit and see if you get less errors. You should also check to make sure connected to the closest pool possible (e.g., don't connect to a pool in Europe if you live in the USA).<br />
<br />
===Nevermore / ccminer===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup====<br />
Check .bat file that name miner at the start is the same as the miner in your folder. Nevermore uses 'ccminer' 2.2.5 might be 'ccminer-x64'. <br />
<br />
<br />
===Sgminer / Avermore===<br />
<br />
Symptoms:<br />
====Crash on startup====<br />
try adding <br />
--gpu-platform 1 <br />
or <br />
--gpu-platform 2 <br />
Brianmct has a good Getting started wiki on [https://github.com/brian112358/sgminer-x16r/wiki/Getting-Started github]<br />
<br />
====Long startup time====<br />
First time sgminer starts it compiles a kernel for all the cards, it can take several minutes.<br />
<br />

|description=Ravencoin Wiki Details on the upcoming Testnet activation of Assets protocol<br />
}}<br />
<br />
'''Ravencoin''' was launched on January 3, 2018, as a free, open source platform forked from the Bitcoin codebase. Since that time, Ravencoin has operated as a fully functional network based on the Bitcoin UTXO model. All coins have been fairly mined by a decentralized network of miners using the ASIC-resistant X16r algorithm.<br />
<br />
<br />
Since the launch, developers have been actively working to add additional asset creation functionality to the Ravencoin core wallet client, as contemplated by Phase 2 (asset support) of the Ravencoin [https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/tree/master/roadmap roadmap]. <br />
<br />
<br />
The Ravencoin community is now able to run the current core Ravencoin client in '''testnet mode''', in order to generate addresses that will be able to receive '''testnet RVN'''.<br />
On July 30, new asset layer features will be added to the core wallet client for use on Ravencoin’s test network. These features are expected to include additional capabilities that will facilitate the native creation, issuance and transfer of asset tokens. A revised version of the core client software will be made available for download on [https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/releases GitHub]. This will allow for rigorous community testing of the native asset layer functionality — including the creation and issuance of testnet assets — in contemplation of the anticipated launch of this functionality on the mainnet in October.<br />
<br />
<br />
This testnet network will be a completely independent secondary blockchain for testing purposes only, in which all tokens will have no intrinsic value and will not be traded on exchanges. The purpose of a testnet is to test features and functionality before introducing those features and functionality to the main blockchain. It is a playground to experiment and test different features with almost no cost to transact or mine blocks. During this testing phase, the Ravencoin blockchain itself will continue to maintain the same operation and functionality it has today.<br />
<br />
<br />
To run your current wallet in testnet mode: <br />
# First shutdown your current full client wallet.<br />
# Create a shortcut to your raven-qt.exe with this in the target field: <br /> <pre>"C:\Users<username>\Path\to\executable\raven-qt.exe" –testnet</pre><br />
# Open the wallet by clicking on the shortcut you just made, and let the blockchain sync fully<br />
<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
! Read this section carefully: BE SAFE AND DON'T CONFUSE YOUR MAINNET WALLET WITH THE TESTNET WALLET! <br />
|-<br />
| Don't worry, this will not interfere with your regular Raven wallet, just make sure both wallets are not running at the same time. For those who are technically inclined, running in testnet mode does not overwrite any of the blockchain data or wallet files of Ravencoin’s main network. Instead, it will create a subfolder named testnet3 inside your data folder where all testnet related data and wallets reside.<br />
<br />
'''If you would prefer to err on the side of caution, consider running your testnet wallet on a different computer.'''<br />
|}<br />
<br />
<br />
If you have additional questions about testnet, please see [https://www.reddit.com/r/Ravencoin/comments/94ju8y/come_join_us_on_testnet_and_try_out_rvn_assets/ this subreddit thread] or the [https://discord.gg/9mxhNjS #testnet channel in Discord.] <br />
<br />
There are currently a couple of tools available to assist you with testnet testing. <br />
<br />
*A fully functional block explorer for testnet Ravencoin is available at https://testnet.ravencoin.network/. <br />
*A faucet which will issue you 5000 free '''testnet Ravencoin''' per click, is also at https://testnet.ravencoin.network/ or http://ravencoin.asset-explorer.net/faucet<br />
*A testnet version of the Pocket Raven Web Wallet is at https://testnet.pocketraven.com/<br />
*You can GPU mine for testnet RVN on MinerMore's testnet pool at https://testnet.minermore.com/<br />
<br />
After this testing period, it is anticipated that the community will consider adoption of the new asset-aware code. Activation will occur through the '''BIP9''' consensus mechanism. More information on the activation process can be found [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RxRokp_P9Iu7eqKdfR7wj2D7bqMwqnd_l3R1yjq633k/ here]<br />

|description=Building a Ravencoin full node on Raspberry Pi<br />
}}<br />
<br />
''By Jeroz - Oct 27th, 2018''<br />
<br />
== General Introduction ==<br />
I will walk you through the steps to set up a full Ravencoin node on a Raspberry Pi running within your home network. A Raspberry Pi node is one of the cheapest options for a Ravencoin node (under $75) and consumes around 3 Watt when running the node and no peripherals are attached to it. The guide runs you through buying and installing hardware, setting up the operating system ([https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/ using NOOBS]), installing the node, and setting up security. Setting up security is highly recommended because you are opening a port to the outside world and you want to make sure it is only used for Ravencoin. Also, as there is no working Raspberry Pi graphical user interface for the Raven Core wallet, you will have to set it up through commands in the terminal. For each step, I will try to explain what you are doing and provide command lines that you need to execute. I will provide links that 1) don't require you to compile the node (which takes about 2 hours if it doesn't crash halfway), and 2) a direct download of 1.8GB of the blockchain, so you don't have to download it from other nodes in the network. These steps likely save you days in getting the node up and running.<br />
<br />
My resources for setting up this guide were my previous experiences in working with Bash (linux command line language) and:<br />

#https://medium.com/@meeDamian/bitcoin-full-node-on-rbp3-revised-88bb7c8ef1d1<br />
<br />
== Before you start ==<br />
<br />
Before you start, you will need:<br />
* A working internet connection; via an UTP cable (recommended for connection stability) or WIFI.<br />
* '''A PC with an SD card reader'''<br />
* A Mouse, keyboard, and monitor<br />
<br />
== Raspberry Pi hardware ==<br />
<br />
My Pi hardware:<br />
* $54.99, [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BC7BMHY Canakit Raspberry Pi 3 B+] (Pi + Case + heat sinks + power cable) <br />My reasoning for this option: I rather have everything in 1 go.<br />
* $15.20, [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFWPXYD 64 GB Samsung 64GB MicroSDXC EVO Plus Memory Card]. <br />Obviously I forgot to buy this initially (oops...) <br />My reasoning for this option: I chose 64GB instead of 32 to have enough room for the future. <br />'''Note:''' formatting a 64GB (or larger) card takes extra steps, see below<br />
<br />
== Setting up Pi hardware and OS software ==<br />
<br />
# Follow the instructions that shipped with the Raspberry Pi to build it.<br />
# Download the [https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/ OS Zip file] (NOOBS for beginners). <br />
# The Raspberry Pi only reads FAT32 formatted partitions on the SD card. So you will need to format it using [https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/index.html SD Memory Card Formatter] <br />'''Note:''' If your SD card is 64GB (or larger), it will automatically be formatted as exFAT, which is not compatible with NOOBS. You need to force your SD card to format as FAT32 to use NOOBS[https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/sdxc_formatting.md].<br />
#*Linux and Mac OS: The standard formatting tools built into these operating systems are able to create FAT32 partitions; they might also be labeled as FAT or MS-DOS. Simply delete the existing exFAT partition and create and format a new FAT32 primary partition.<br />
#*Windows: The standard formatting tools built into Windows are limited, as they only allow partitions up to 32GB to be formatted as FAT32, so to format a 64GB partition as FAT32 you need to use a third-party formatting tool. A simple tool to do this is [http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm FAT32 Format]. <br />
#Extract the NOOBS zip file and copy its contents on the memory card.<br />
#When this process has finished, safely remove the SD card and insert it into your Raspberry Pi.<br />
#Connect the power cable to the Raspberry Pi to let it boot. If you run into trouble, walk trough the [https://www.raspberrypi.org/learning/hardware-guide/ Raspberry Pi hardware guide] <br />
#If you are using NOOBS and this is the first time your Raspberry Pi and SD card have been used, then you'll have to select an operating system and let it install (Choose the default: Raspbian).<br />
#Don't forget to set a password for login when prompted. Otherwise it is too easy for someone else to get in.<br />
<br />
== Setting up the Ravencoin node - The quick way ==<br />
Now that you got the OS running, it is time for the fun part: setting up the Ravencoin node. Normally, installing Ravencoin will take hours and syncing to the network will take days. However, I found some nice shortcuts for you.<br />
<br />
#Instead of the repository of the Core Ravencoin developers, [https://github.com/underdarkskies Under] who is also an active developer, compiled static versions of the Ravencoin wallet/node. Static means that this version works straight out of the box for each operating system. For the Raspberry Pi, you need the [https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases ARM-linux version of Ravencoin]. Open a terminal and use the following code: <br />
#:<pre><br />
#::cd ~/ &#10;wget https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases/download/v2.1.1/raven-2.1.1-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz &#10;tar -xvzf raven-2.1.1-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz </pre> '''Note:''' Under and I just saved you hours of headaches and 2 hours of compiling!<br />
# There is no working Ravencoin GUI for the Raspberry Pi. So you will need to get everything working from the command line. I like to put binaries into my default local user binary location so that I can globally access them from anywhere. <br />
#:<pre><br />
#::cd raven-2.1.1/bin &#10;sudo cp ./* /usr/local/bin </pre> Two files in this directory are important:<br />
#*''ravend'': which is the Ravencoin deamon, a program that implements the Ravencoin protocol for remote procedure calls (RPCs). In simple terms: it will run a wallet/node as a background process and you can send instructions to it.<br />
#*''raven-cli'': which is the command line interface for Ravencoin that you can use to send instructions to ravend.<br />
#Next up is starting the deamon (''ravend'') process to start the Ravencoin node.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::ravend & </pre><br />
#Ravend runs entirely in the background, so you cannot see what is happening. The process will create wallet and blockchain files in <code>~/.raven/</code>. Subsequently, it will start downloading the Ravencoin blockchain. This will take forever ('''may take a week''')! So, what we are going to do is stop ''ravend'' after ~5 minutes and thank [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTGFgr_1P8jdiM1Xend0ELw/featured Cryptoslo] for sharing a link that contains 1.8GB of the blockchain already.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::raven-cli stop &#10;cd ~/.raven &#10;wget http://147.135.10.45/blockchains/current/Raven_blockchain.zip &#10;unzip Raven_blockchain.zip </pre><br />
#Additionally, we are going to make a configuration file to set up ravencoin optimally for the raspberry pi.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::touch ~/.raven/raven.conf &#10;nano ~/.raven/raven.conf </pre> Enter the following lines, and adjust user/login settings accordingly:<br />
#:<pre>rpcuser=rpcuser &#10;rpcpassword=SETYOURPASSWORDHERE &#10;rpcallowip=IP_ADDRESS_OF_HOST_YOU_ACCESS_RAVEN-CLI_FROM &#10;server=1 &#10;upnp=1 &#10;dbcache=800 &#10;maxmempool=50 &#10;disablewallet=1 &#10;logips=1 &#10;maxconnections=40 &#10;prune=42000 &#10;maxuploadtarget=5000 </pre> '''Note:''' It is important to set <code>server=1</code> otherwise you will not get incoming connections and <code>prune</code> lets your pi look at the last X MB of the chain. Adjust this value based on your SD size. <br /> To save: CTRL+O ENTER, To exit: CTRL+X.<br />
#Now you can start start ravend again to index the blockchain that you downloaded and to download the remaining bit (which may still take a day depending on your connection).<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::ravend & </pre><br />
# Ok, so suppose you are as impatient as I am and you want to know more about the progress of ''ravend'' downloading the block chain. To make this insightful we are going to make use of a little script that I found using google and slightly adapted ([https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/users/83847/hiding-ninja original creator]). It will use ''raven-cli'' to get information from the deamon and we will extract the most useful information from it.<br />

#:<pre> ~/check_status.sh </pre><br />
<br />
== Connections and Security ==<br />
First, if you are connecting your Pi with the internet trough WIFI (and not an UTP cable), it is important to know that Raspbian power management turns off wifi after a couple of hours idling. Obviously, we don't want that to happen so you need to turn of WIFI power management: <pre> sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off </pre><br />
Ok, now that the blockchain is downloading, we are going to work on listening ports (to contribute to the Ravencoin network) and security. <br />
<br />
# To make sure the necessary ports are open in your Raspberry Pi: <pre>sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8767 -j ACCEPT &#10;sudo iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 8767 -j ACCEPT</pre><br />
# You also need to set port forwarding in your router. The necessary steps to do this differs per router and therefore I need to refer you to the manual of your router. Be sure to forward the port to the IP address of your Raspberry Pi and the port you are forwarding is 8767. You can find the IP address using the <code>ifconfig</code> command. It is either <code>192.168.X.X</code> or <code>10.0.X.X</code>.<br />
#Next, we are going to install ''Uncomplicated Firewall'' (''ufw''). As mentioned in the introduction: this is highly recommended because you are opening a port to the outside world and you want to make sure it is only used for Ravencoin: <pre>sudo apt install ufw</pre> '''Note:''' ''ufw'' default rules allow for all outgoing connections, but block all incoming connections. <br /><br /> '''Optional:''' If you plan on using SSH to access your raspberry pi, make sure that ssh access is allowed (but limited): <pre>sudo apt install ufw</pre> '''Optional:''' You might want to add a few more limitations on ssh. For example if you’re planning on accessing your node from local network only. Depending on your local network: <pre>sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port 22</pre> Or <pre>sudo ufw allow from 10.0.0.0/24 to any port 22</pre> And/or if you have a dedicated static IP, for example: <pre>sudo ufw allow from 16.32.64.128 to any port 22</pre><br />
# To allow Ravencoin traffic: <pre>sudo ufw allow 8767 comment 'Ravencoin'</pre> You can preview the results using: <pre>sudo ufw status verbose &#10;&#10;Example output: &#10;To Action From&#10;-- ------ ----&#10;22/tcp LIMIT IN Anywhere&#10;8767 ALLOW IN Anywhere # Ravencoin&#10;22/tcp (v6) LIMIT IN Anywhere (v6) &#10;8767 (v6) ALLOW IN Anywhere (v6) # Ravencoin </pre><br />
# Enable Firewall: <pre>sudo ufw enable</pre><br />
# To make it a bit more difficult for someone trying to brute force his way in. We are going to give timeouts when the login password was wrong 5 times using Fail2Ban: <pre>sudo apt install fail2ban</pre> To see the banlist: <pre>sudo fail2ban-client status &#10;&#10;Example output:&#10; Status|- Number of jail: 1&#10;`- Jail list: sshd</pre><br />
<br />
== Final checks ==<br />
Ok, time for final checks to make sure peers can connect to you. To see if the port is working you can enter your public IP address and port 8767 at https://ping.eu/port-chk/ .<br />
<br />
You can also connect to your node using a wallet on a different pc. In raven core, go to: help>debug window>console and type:<br />
<pre>addnode YOUR_PUBLIC_IP:8767 add</pre><br />
<br />
On your Raspberry Pi you can check whether you see incoming connections: <pre>netstat | grep :8767</pre><br />
<br />
Output example: <pre>tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:60954 ec2-18-202-73-87.e:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:8767 185.212.171.218:54128 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:59318 ec2-34-250-168-91.:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:33302 pool-71-121-144-13:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:8767 62-165-213-161.po:58887 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:47502 075-177-011-096.re:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:44608 ec2-52-26-83-116.u:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:58040 ecs-114-115-175-41:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:58112 c-73-37-220-84.hsd:8767 ESTABLISHED<br />
</pre><br />
Connections using port:8767 on the left side are incoming connections.<br />
<br />
== What do to after a reboot ==<br />
I did not take you through steps that would make the node automatically start when you (re)boot your Raspberry Pi. In the case this does happen, execute the following commands to get everything back up: <pre> sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off &#10; ravend & </pre><br />
If you do like to have these commands executed during startup, you can follow the example given [http://thelowercasew.com/disabling-wifi-power-management-permanently-for-raspberry-pi-3-with-raspbian-jessie here], you only need to add an extra line <code>ravend &</code> in step 3.<br />
<br />
----<br />
And there you go, a full node on a Raspberry Pi! :)<br />

''By Jeroz - Oct 27th, 2018''<br />
<br />
== General Introduction ==<br />
I will walk you trough the steps to set up a full Ravencoin node on a Raspberry Pi running within your home network. A Raspberry Pi node is one of the cheapest options for a Ravencoin node (under $75) and consumes around 3 Watt when running the node and no peripherals are attached to it. The guide runs you through buying and installing hardware, setting up the operating system ([https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/ using NOOBS]), installing the node, and setting up security. Setting up security is highly recommended because you are opening a port to the outside world and you want to make sure it is only used for Ravencoin. Also, as there is no working Raspberry Pi graphical user interface for the Raven Core wallet, you will have to set it up through commands in the terminal. For each step, I will try to explain what you are doing and provide command lines that you need to execute. I will provide links that 1) don't require you to compile the node (which takes about 2 hours if it doesn't crash halfway), and 2) a direct download of 1.8GB of the blockchain, so you don't have to download it from other nodes in the network. These steps likely save you days in getting the node up and running.<br />
<br />
My resources for setting up this guide were my previous experiences in working with Bash (linux command line language) and:<br />

<br />
== Before you start ==<br />
<br />
Before you start, you will need:<br />
* A working internet connection; via an UTP cable (recommended for connection stability) or WIFI.<br />
* '''A PC with an SD card reader'''<br />
* A Mouse, keyboard, and monitor<br />
<br />
== Raspberry Pi hardware ==<br />
<br />
My Pi hardware:<br />
* $54.99, [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BC7BMHY Canakit Raspberry Pi 3 B+] (Pi + Case + heat sinks + power cable) <br />My reasoning for this option: I rather have everything in 1 go.<br />
* $15.20, [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFWPXYD 64 GB Samsung 64GB MicroSDXC EVO Plus Memory Card]. <br />Obviously I forgot to buy this initially (oops...) <br />My reasoning for this option: I chose 64GB instead of 32 to have enough room for the future. <br />'''Note:''' formatting a 64GB (or larger) card takes extra steps, see below<br />
<br />
== Setting up Pi hardware and OS software ==<br />
<br />
# Follow the instructions that shipped with the Raspberry Pi to build it.<br />
# Download the [https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/ OS Zip file] (NOOBS for beginners). <br />
# The Raspberry Pi only reads FAT32 formatted partitions on the SD card. So you will need to format it using [https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/index.html SD Memory Card Formatter] <br />'''Note:''' If your SD card is 64GB (or larger), it will automatically be formatted as exFAT, which is not compatible with NOOBS. You need to force your SD card to format as FAT32 to use NOOBS[https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/sdxc_formatting.md].<br />
#*Linux and Mac OS: The standard formatting tools built into these operating systems are able to create FAT32 partitions; they might also be labeled as FAT or MS-DOS. Simply delete the existing exFAT partition and create and format a new FAT32 primary partition.<br />
#*Windows: The standard formatting tools built into Windows are limited, as they only allow partitions up to 32GB to be formatted as FAT32, so to format a 64GB partition as FAT32 you need to use a third-party formatting tool. A simple tool to do this is [http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm FAT32 Format]. <br />
#Extract the NOOBS zip file and copy its contents on the memory card.<br />
#When this process has finished, safely remove the SD card and insert it into your Raspberry Pi.<br />
#Connect the power cable to the Raspberry Pi to let it boot. If you run into trouble, walk trough the [https://www.raspberrypi.org/learning/hardware-guide/ Raspberry Pi hardware guide] <br />
#If you are using NOOBS and this is the first time your Raspberry Pi and SD card have been used, then you'll have to select an operating system and let it install (Choose the default: Raspbian).<br />
#Don't forget to set a password for login when prompted. Otherwise it is too easy for someone else to get in.<br />
<br />
== Setting up the Ravencoin node - The quick way ==<br />
Now that you got the OS running, it is time for the fun part: setting up the Ravencoin node. Normally, installing Ravencoin will take hours and syncing to the network will take days. However, I found some nice shortcuts for you.<br />
<br />
#Instead of the repository of the Core Ravencoin developers, [https://github.com/underdarkskies Under] who is also an active developer, compiled static versions of the Ravencoin wallet/node. Static means that this version works straight out of the box for each operating system. For the Raspberry Pi, you need the [https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases ARM-linux version of Ravencoin]. Open a terminal and use the following code: <br />
#:<pre><br />
#::cd ~/ &#10;wget https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases/download/v2.1.1/raven-2.1.1-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz &#10;tar -xvzf raven-2.1.1-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz </pre> '''Note:''' Under and I just saved you hours of headaches and 2 hours of compiling!<br />
# There is no working Ravencoin GUI for the Raspberry Pi. So you will need to get everything working from the command line. I like to put binaries into my default local user binary location so that I can globally access them from anywhere. <br />
#:<pre><br />
#::cd raven-2.1.1/bin &#10;sudo cp ./* /usr/local/bin </pre> Two files in this directory are important:<br />
#*''ravend'': which is the Ravencoin deamon, a program that implements the Ravencoin protocol for remote procedure calls (RPCs). In simple terms: it will run a wallet/node as a background process and you can send instructions to it.<br />
#*''raven-cli'': which is the command line interface for Ravencoin that you can use to send instructions to ravend.<br />
#Next up is starting the deamon (''ravend'') process to start the Ravencoin node.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::ravend & </pre><br />
#Ravend runs entirely in the background, so you cannot see what is happening. The process will create wallet and blockchain files in <code>~/.raven/</code>. Subsequently, it will start downloading the Ravencoin blockchain. This will take forever ('''may take a week''')! So, what we are going to do is stop ''ravend'' after ~5 minutes and thank [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTGFgr_1P8jdiM1Xend0ELw/featured Cryptoslo] for sharing a link that contains 1.8GB of the blockchain already.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::raven-cli stop &#10;cd ~/.raven &#10;wget http://147.135.10.45/blockchains/current/Raven_blockchain.zip &#10;unzip Raven_blockchain.zip </pre><br />
#Additionally, we are going to make a configuration file to set up ravencoin optimally for the raspberry pi.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::touch ~/.raven/raven.conf &#10;nano ~/.raven/raven.conf </pre> Enter the following lines, and adjust user/login settings accordingly:<br />
#:<pre>rpcuser=rpcuser &#10;rpcpassword=SETYOURPASSWORDHERE &#10;rpcallowip=IP_ADDRESS_OF_HOST_YOU_ACCESS_RAVEN-CLI_FROM &#10;server=1 &#10;upnp=1 &#10;dbcache=800 &#10;maxmempool=50 &#10;disablewallet=1 &#10;logips=1 &#10;maxconnections=40 &#10;prune=42000 &#10;maxuploadtarget=5000 </pre> '''Note:''' It is important to set <code>server=1</code> otherwise you will not get incoming connections and <code>prune</code> lets your pi look at the last X MB of the chain. Adjust this value based on your SD size. <br /> To save: CTRL+O ENTER, To exit: CTRL+X.<br />
#Now you can start start ravend again to index the blockchain that you downloaded and to download the remaining bit (which may still take a day depending on your connection).<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::ravend & </pre><br />
# Ok, so suppose you are as impatient as I am and you want to know more about the progress of ''ravend'' downloading the block chain. To make this insightful we are going to make use of a little script that I found using google and slightly adapted ([https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/users/83847/hiding-ninja original creator]). It will use ''raven-cli'' to get information from the deamon and we will extract the most useful information from it.<br />
#:<pre><br />
#::touch ~/check_status.sh &#10;nano ~/check_status.sh </pre> Enter the following lines:<br />
#:<pre>#!/bin/bash &#10;count=$(/usr/local/bin/raven-cli getblockcount); &#10;/bin/echo "block count: $count"; &#10;hash=$(/usr/local/bin/raven-cli getblockhash $count); &#10;/bin/echo "block hash: $hash"; &#10;t=$(/usr/local/bin/raven-cli getblock "$hash" | grep '"time"' | awk '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/,$//g'); &#10;/bin/echo "block timestamp is: $t"; &#10;cur_t=$(date +%s); &#10;diff_t=$[$cur_t - $t]; &#10;/bin/echo -n "Difference is: "; &#10;/bin/echo $diff_t | /usr/bin/awk '{printf "%d days, %d:%d:%d\n",$1/(60*60*24),$1/(60*60)%24,$1%(60*60)/60,$1%60}'; </pre> To save: CTRL+O ENTER, To exit: CTRL+X. <br /> And to make it executable:<br />
#:<pre> chmod +x ~/check_status.sh </pre> You can now use the script to check the blockchain download status of ''ravend''. I noticed that it spits out an error if ''ravend'' is still indexing the blockchain (after startup) and that the first call to it is rather slow:<br />
#:<pre> ~/check_status.sh </pre><br />
<br />
== Connections and Security ==<br />
First, if you are connecting your Pi with the internet trough WIFI (and not an UTP cable), it is important to know that Raspbian power management turns off wifi after a couple of hours idling. Obviously, we don't want that to happen so you need to turn of WIFI power management: <pre> sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off </pre><br />
Ok, now that the blockchain is downloading, we are going to work on listening ports (to contribute to the Ravencoin network) and security. <br />
<br />
# To make sure the necessary ports are open in your Raspberry Pi: <pre>sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8767 -j ACCEPT &#10;sudo iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 8767 -j ACCEPT</pre><br />
# You also need to set port forwarding in your router. The necessary steps to do this differs per router and therefore I need to refer you to the manual of your router.

# Enable Firewall: <pre>sudo ufw enable</pre><br />
# To make it a bit more difficult for someone trying to brute force his way in. We are going to give timeouts when the login password was wrong 5 times using Fail2Ban: <pre>sudo apt install fail2ban</pre> To see the banlist: <pre>sudo fail2ban-client status &#10;&#10;Example output:&#10; Status|- Number of jail: 1&#10;`- Jail list: sshd</pre><br />
<br />
== Final checks ==<br />
Ok, time for final checks to make sure peers can connect to you. To see if the port is working you can enter your public IP address and port 8767 at https://ping.eu/port-chk/ .<br />
<br />
You can also connect to your node using a wallet on a different pc. In raven core, go to: help>debug window>console and type:<br />
<pre>addnode YOUR_PUBLIC_IP:8767 add</pre><br />
<br />
On your Raspberry Pi you can check whether you see incoming connections: <pre>netstat | grep :8767</pre><br />
<br />
Output example: <pre>tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:60954 ec2-18-202-73-87.e:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:8767 185.212.171.218:54128 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:59318 ec2-34-250-168-91.:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:33302 pool-71-121-144-13:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:8767 62-165-213-161.po:58887 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:47502 075-177-011-096.re:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:44608 ec2-52-26-83-116.u:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:58040 ecs-114-115-175-41:8767 ESTABLISHED&#10;tcp 0 0 10.0.0.137:58112 c-73-37-220-84.hsd:8767 ESTABLISHED<br />
</pre><br />
Connections using port:8767 on the left side are incoming connections.<br />
<br />
== What do to after a reboot ==<br />
I did not take you through steps that would make the node automatically start when you (re)boot your Raspberry Pi. In the case this does happen, execute the following commands to get everything back up: <pre> sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off &#10; ravend & </pre><br />
If you do like to have these commands executed during startup, you can follow the example given [http://thelowercasew.com/disabling-wifi-power-management-permanently-for-raspberry-pi-3-with-raspbian-jessie here], you only need to add an extra line <code>ravend &</code> in step 3.<br />
