    Campaign to use eth as a currency

    Posted: 27 Jan 2020 10:24 AM PST

    Honestly I feel like if a lot of the big exchanges, Ethereum based subreddits and other groups in the Ethereum community got around it we could see eth used as a major currency. We could surpass even bitcoin and become what bitcoin was originally meant to be, a global internet currency that replaces the current fiat system while also being so much more (dao, smart contracts, governance etc.) With the recent reduction in block time and sharding happening the future I think now is the time to start a big push for the use of eth as a currency. Integration of eth should be pushed to be added to different stores both brick & mortar and online. A whole ecosystem should be set up to familiarize the masses of eth as a currency.

    Eth could be the front facing brand that customers interact with and recognize for payment, stablecoins built on top of Ethereum would also have far more reach this way. Eth is already faster then bitcoin and is being innovated more rapidly. Being recognized as a currency by the general public would also bring far more attention to Ethereums more complex things such as smart contracts.

    I'm the head mod of r/eth and was considering making the whole purpose of the subreddit the promotion of the use of eth as a currency. If anyone wants to get behind this whether it's helping me mod the subreddit, planning on how to get stores to integrate eth, branding eth as a currency better for public awareness etc. let me know.

    Private geth PoA blockchain in gridlock- "signed recently, must wait for others"

    Posted: 27 Jan 2020 01:40 PM PST

    Hello /r/ethereum,

    I've made a lot of progress and learned a lot since my last post, but I've again found myself slamming my head against a wall.

    I followed this excellent tutorial nearly to a T to set up a private, PoA Ethereum blockchain meant to be reachable by other computers on my network. This time I used puppeth to create my genesis block rather than some random one I found online, and properly set up some ethereum accounts with their own node directories.

    However, I've run into an issue I could not find mentioned in this tutorial: I successfully got the blockchain running, but after both nodes mined one block each they got into gridlock, both saying that they have mined a block too recently.

    Searching online I could find a few (very few) discussions about this, but they were all about what's causing the issue, not how to actually fix it as a user. This was the second private blockchain I set up following this tutorial, and the same issue happened on the first one. (On the first one I only had one sealer, and I assumed that was why.)

    Anyone have any idea how to fix that issue? It's okay if I have to delete and restart the blockchain, since nothing's actually been done on it yet. Do I just need to have more sealers so they can sign and the other nodes don't feel like they signed too recently? Is there a setting I can change in the genesis so the chain doesn't care if it signed recently or not? Or perhaps did I start up the network incorrectly, such that there's some kind of syncing issue?

    My genesis.json

    Terminal command for bootnode

    Terminal command + error for on-computer node 1

    Terminal command + error for on-computer node 2

    I tried adding a third, external node to the network, but that was giving an entirely different error. My picture of the command and given error was corrupted, but it was something like

    Fatal: Error starting protocol stack: listen udp :8501: bind: address already in use 

    The command I used to start up the external node is the same as the ones I used for the on computer nodes, except I used the base port (30310) and the computer's IP in the rpcaddr and bootnodes instead of the loopback address.

    Thank you for any assistance.

    Edit: I remembered the port giving the error for address already in use was the rcp port, not the other port

    DeFi has a data availability gap that nobody is talking about

    Posted: 27 Jan 2020 10:28 AM PST

    The data on Ethereum is public, yet getting data off them is hard. It's messy and time-consuming even for an engineer. Ganesh Swami from Covalent explains this with MakerDAO's use-case. Read here: https://www.covalenthq.com/blog/defi-data-availability-makerdao-csv-export/

    Event Query Time

    Posted: 27 Jan 2020 02:58 PM PST

    I was wondering whether there was a way to approximate the time it takes to iterate over x events.

    Say an even is defined as:

    event status(string _status, uint256 indexed _id);

    And I want to receive the latest event for a specific_ID using:

    App.contracts.MyContract.deployed().then(instance => {

    var myEvent = instance.status({_id: specific_ID }, {fromBlock: 0, toBlock: 'latest'});

    var myResults = myEvent.get(function(error, event){

    console.log("status: "+ event[event.length-1].args._status);

    });

    });

    Is there a somewhat mathematical description of how long that query takes for x indexed _ids?

    How do I know how much an ERC-20 transfer will cost?

    Posted: 27 Jan 2020 01:10 PM PST

    Can anyone explain how I can know ahead of time how much the transfer of an amount of an ERC-20 token will cost from one wallet to another wallet?

    I'd like to be able to ask people for an amount of ETH to cover the cost of ERC-20 transfers so that I'm not out of pocket
