Please Vote For The Latest Community Superblock: 1036800

Hello Snode owners! It’s time to vote for the latest proposals!

There is a great responsibility for Service Node (Snode) owners to vote either “yes,” or “no,” on the proposals. It cannot be emphasised enough how much the community as well as the Blocknet team relies on Snodes to vote on project proposals to ensure continued funding for development of the Blocknet.

The proposals for superblock 1036800 can be viewed below or on the NEW FORUM forum here. Please note, proposals are being submitted individually so please make sure you scroll down and take your time to look over each proposal.

In the latest wallet voting is now much easier. Navigate to the proposal area:

Click the “Vote” button for a proposal you wish to vote on and choose “yes”, “no” or “abstain” to vote. (If voting for multiple nodes or a vps, check “Vote many”.)

If using an older wallet, follow the instructions on how to vote for each proposal below.

Proposal Name: bizdev-1036800 Owner: Mastermind

Cost: 2500 BLOCK

Proposal: Business Development

Background/Previous Work::
July Business Development Summary
We now have a much stronger presentation to provide to prospective clients with the completion of the partnership pitch deck. Initial calls with clients have had their rocky points, as we are pitching a new technology on top of another relatively new technology, but as we go forward the discussions will be more refined as we gain insight on how clients are thinking of applying Blocknet to their business model. Looking forward to continuing to build the pipeline and pressing on with the initial strategy as outlined in my first proposal last month.

Current pipeline:
Banking Sector:
-We received positive feedback from the client from the initial call we had back in June. The client invited us to a second call scheduled for July 30th to speak with their FX team to explore a possible use case.

Consulting Sector:
-Initial call with a global technology consulting firm to discuss possible partnership structures. Feedback was mixed. I am revising the pitch deck to clarify specific business cases for the technology and how it can apply to the firm’s clients. I will reach out next week with the client to follow up on our discussion.

Background/Previous Work:
My background is primarily in technology and banking. In the past, I ran my own technology consulting company and created custom designed software solutions for my clients. I have been involved in Bitcoin since 2011 and have followed this incredibly dynamic industry ever since.

I currently work as an investment banker covering large corporate clients. My primary responsibility is generating new ideas for clients that would be profitable for the bank (business development) with ancillary responsibilities typical of every investment banker (credit and lending, financial analysis, raising capital, M&A, etc).

Strategy:
Blocknet has a niche, the tech, and an opportunity to take the lead in the interoperability space- but it is abundantly clear that this message has not gotten to the right decision makers at the right companies.

My initial targets will be global financial institutions (Citi/JPM/BAML/HSBC/DB/MS/GS/Standard Chartered/RBC/UBS/Barclays/etc.) and global consulting firms (Bain/McKinsey/Accenture/Boston/Booz Allen/PwC/EY/Deloitte/KPMG).

The rationale behind this strategy is that the top financial institutions and consultants both have the largest companies in the world as their clientele. Their role is to understand their client’s strategy and to help them execute on that strategy, which means they usually have a pretty good insight into what their clients want and what they might need to 1) generate more revenue 2) save time or 3) cut costs.

I have many connections within these companies/sectors and feel confident that I will be able to ignite interest in the project and land our first partnership as a result of my efforts.

The amount requested for this Superblock is a retainer to begin spending time contributing to this project for the month of August.

Proposal Name: equipment-1036800 Owner: UAT team

Cost: 1450 BLOCK

Proposal: Project Equipment

Overview

This proposal is to enable us to expand our physical systems used for UAT tasks, which allow us to perform development support, UAT, integration, and QA tasks. All of which rely on us having access to many blockchains and the capability to host any other services we rely on for our work.

These various upgrades are required to provide us with a high quality testing environment on both mainnet and testnet, to developers and UAT who are battle-testing XRouter, XBridge, and XCloud services across various chains. This includes several custom ones, such as Ethereum and EOS which demand abundant computing, storage, and memory resources.

• These equipment upgrades will help sustain the demands on various custom chains and services including and not limited to Geth, Parity, EOS, Neo, Ripple, etc.
• Equipment upgrades will allow us to deliver a reliable and responsive service to developers and users alike testing and building on the Blocknet protocol.

The bulk of the costs for this month’s proposal are the acquisition of a new rackmount test-server that shall be placed in a data center, to provide high-level support for XRouter/XCloud development and testing. Other costs include SSD expansion on another one of our test systems, which is required to enable local access to ETH/EOS chains on said test system.

Proposal Name: hanniabu-1036800 Owner: Hanni Abu

Cost: 5100 BLOCK

Proposal: Core Contributions

Previous Work:
I began contributing in August 2017 when I saw there were areas the project could use help in. The first thing I worked on was an informational website (blocknetprotocol.com) since informational resources we lacking. This led to submitting my first Superblock proposal that next month for further contribution.

Since then I have been responsible for multiple projects and tasks, as well have assisted in others. Some of these items are as follows:

• API documentation (https://api.blocknet.co/)
• New configurations file format: https://github.com/blocknetdx/blockchain-configuration-files
• Compose documentation (https://docs.blocknet.co)
• Compose content
• Compose specifications
• Wallet QA (MacOS)
• Block DX QA (MacOS)
• Block DX development
• Website development
• Participate in interviews
• Roadmap discussion
• Manage and organize files and documents
• Review announcements and publications
• Convention prep, attending convention, and followups
• Newsletter content, review, and submission
• Article reviews
• Release announcements, posts, and emails
• Respond to questions from the community
• Respond to emails
• Fill out applications and forms

Below is a list of items I have been working on the past Superblock period.

• Daily intra-team communication and coordination
• Reviewed/finalized the newsletter
• Submitted newsletter email
• Continued documentation
• Maintain existing documentation
• Maintain blockchain-configuration-files
• Maintain and update bootstrap files
• Update API documentation
• Block DX QA, release, manage tasks
• Review articles being prepped
• Bizdev pitchdeck
• Website revisioning

Overview:
As a core contributor of Blocknet, I take part in many daily tasks that help keep the project running smoothly, as well as larger tasks that move Blocknet forward. Putting in an average 60 hours a week, I partake in projects that build Blocknet’s foundation and assist in other projects in order to help meet objectives. This proposal is for compensation to allow me to continue contributing to Blocknet for the next upcoming Superblock period.

I have a technical background with a degree in mechanical engineering, prior development experience, and have spent a few years a a few early stage startups (pre and post seed round). This experience helps in various aspects of the project including working in a fast-paced environment, wearing multiple ‘hats’, pivoting priorities and tasks, understanding the project technicals and vision, communicating the different components, conveying concepts into diagrams and text, and budgeting and financials.

Attention to detail is another useful trait. When reviewing interface UI and user experience, performing QA, writing specifications and documents, and communicating concepts, this attention to detail is important as it’s typically the intricacies that make a difference.

In addition to daily tasks, the following list are main items I plan to be working on in the following Superblock period. Keep in mind that some of these may not be completed this upcoming Superblock period, may be pushed back due to a change in priority, or may be ongoing long term items.

• Block DX development
• Continued documentation
• Continued wallet and Block DX tutorials
• Continued website content revision

The amount requested for this Superblock is a retainer to continue contributing to this project.

Proposal Name: michael-dev-aug Owner: michael

Cost: 8000 BLOCK

Proposal: Core Development

July recap
The month of July was primarily dedicated to the continued development of a production ready blockchain capable of supporting the growing needs of the XBridge, XRouter, and XCloud products. The work can be reviewed here: https://github.com/blocknetdx/bitcoin/commits/feature-servicenodes 1. Testnet builds here: https://gitlab.com/blocknetdx/bitcoin/pipelines/

For more detailed instructions see: http://blocknetdx.forumotion.com/t6-blocknet-proposal-introduction-guide

• An introduction to Superblocks and a guide to submitting and voting for proposals, can be found here.
• A proposal category was created in the Blocknet Discord for focused and specific discussion of proposals and ideas. Within this category, there is a channel called #anon-snode-feedback for Service Node owners to provide anonymous feedback on proposals.
• Votes in favor must be greater than votes against by at least 10% of the total number of Service Nodes.
• The proposals that pass are sorted in a descending order list by the sum of yes votes minus no votes. If multiple proposals have an equal sum of yes votes minus no votes, those are sorted randomly. If there are not enough funds remaining in the Superblock for a proposal to be paid out, it is skipped (not paid out), and the next proposal in the list is checked.
• Multi-month proposals are voted on each month and are treated in the same manner as normal proposals in the ordered list.
• There is also something called a ‘final budget,’ which needs to be submitted between 2880 blocks and 28 blocks before the Superblock. By default, Service Nodes automatically vote yes on final budgets. Moving forward, proposal voting will end 2880 blocks before the Superblock since the final budget locks in the proposal vote counts.
• An introduction to Superblocks and a guide to voting can be found here.
• In addition, we have created a separate proposal notification email alert reminder that snode owners can sign up for here so they do not forget to vote. (This email is separate to the Word on the BLOCK newsletter email).

PLEASE VOTE ASAP. MANY THANKS!
