Any project managers out there who want to do more #FOSS and more to promote free, open and lower cost internet? A company I work for is hiring. #PKT

Boosts appreciated.

Something I never expected was the social effects of a crypto mining algorithm which gets easier to mine when miners work together. #PacketCrypt #PKT

The #PKT difficulty just crossed over 1mn for the second time and this time seems to be holding.

The three major pools are running between 3 and 10Gb each by their records.

#PKT community member @raviteja33 just posted this on https://pkt.chat/ , mining PacketCrypt on an old phone 🎉

#PKT network difficulty just crossed over 200k. We're hovering around 600Mb/s and 83mn encryptions-per-second. source: explorer.pkt.cash

At long last, finally a document explaining the #PKT network project & vision. Dare I say "whitepaper" ?

What should the #PKT fork of LND (Lightning Network Daemon) be called?
Changes are pretty significant so it would be a bit confusing to keep calling it LND...

In the #PKT project explorer, just saw the first blocks from a mining pool which I've no clue who is running it.

Their main address has mewu in it so for now I'm calling it MewPool. 😸

Ahead of #Uganda election, govt reportedly forcing ISPs to block T and FB

Centralized social media has dangerous power over pub opinion, but govt with control of the internet will inevitably find that power irresistible.
Need to #decentralize both social & net. #fediverse #pkt

A team funded by the #PKT Network Steward is working on developing a #Rust version of the #cjdns CryptoAuth code and then beginning to migrate to BoringTun (WireGuard protocol).

I just finished re-working the CryptoAuth tests to run on both implementations at the same time.

The #pkt project is about putting infrastructure ownership in the community.
* Open source protocols
* Changeable crypto key, not static IMEI
* Decentralized bandwidth marketplace to bring infrastructure funding into communities
* Everything encrypted

Just did a radio interview w/ Ernest Hancock and the recording is up:

We discussed:
* Decentralizing internet infrastructure
* Bandwidth marketplace
* Bandwidth-hard mining => Incentivizing network infrastructure rollout

LND merged into the develop branch of #pkt source tree. Lightning Network here we come...

You know what's amazing? Wholesale wheat trades for less than 6 USD per bushel. A bushel is over 26 KG, think of how much bread that makes.
If you want to make something plentiful, the best way seems to be commoditization. #pkt

Just released v1.0.0 of #pkt explorer backend.
https://github.com/pkt-cash/pkt-explorer-backend
This uses ClickHouse materialized views to do real time computation of complex analyses like:
* Richest addresses
* Most profitable miners
* Income per day for each address
Where is your mongod now? 😋

With the new version of pktd just released, now I need to look at my 75 open pull requests.

I've got some great people working with me on this project. #pkt

My poor server used to be 100% CPU all day long, now it's practically idle. Soon it will be time for the network to start growing again.
