81637896e8b9e2804dde4a6c2214d9e4 | dear support,
i have successfully created a stellar asset using stellar laboratory and it was published on the stellarexpert.
however, in my lobstr wallet, although i managed to "add-in" my asset using my domain the asset shows as 0. when i checked back the issuer account using stellarexpert, i found out that in the content, the asset does show as 0.
at first, i did try to go back to stellar laboratory to set sell offer and set options for thresholds but still remain the same and i need help or guidance to resolve this. i'm unable to attach the screenshot but i can provide you this link, as you can see that under the "assets issued by account"
**assets issued by account
swl (1 trustlines)
0**
[<https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/account/ga3lpgdeex6imwd6fwpz2lbz5i73uhskcldonuhevtnt3uqe5h54w5gn>]
but in the swl asset: it looks okay but is not reflected on its issuer
[<https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/asset/swl-ga3lpgdeex6imwd6fwpz2lbz5i73uhskcldonuhevtnt3uqe5h54w5gn>]
really appreciate your prompt reply, many thanks.

4aaa1ab91c6a30b5381c7ada8d674fd7 | hi, hello i was unfortunate enough to not pay attention and fell for the staking scam. i lost pretty much all i had. i had just entered adalite staking and in the excitement i didnt stop to think that maybe it was weird that xlm email for staking was in my spam folder, nor did i find it weird that the site looked kinda scuffed. i know that i had no one to blame but myself, and i've spent a fair share of the day doing just that, but i wanted to ask if there was any sort of anything that i might be able to do to unscam myself. i have the stellarexpert link to the transaction and the address that was created and where my lumen is right now. anything i can do?

1d41f335b25846e92434f94d24f87104 | hello,
we started working on a protocol / standard / software to enable fiat tokenization by trusted anchors.
to be clear trusted anchors are regulated entities that everyone can trust that at any point in time they can redeem their tokens.
the idea behind the project is to have one virtual currency like virtual eur being issued by any anchor that respects the standard and uses the open source software that we provide.
we will try to build it from bottom-up, from small regulated entities in europe like payment institutions and electronic money institutions and grow up towards the banks.
as an example: a small regulated payment institution (even a regulated crypto exchange lile bitstamp would qualify) would deploy our software and will be able to issue virtual eur. basically the anchor (in this example bitstamp) will enable its users to issue veur while they keep the eur in escrow, visible to public (also insured by the protocol and software). when a new anchor wants to adhere the the protocol it will install the software and it's users will be able to issue the same kind of veur (fungible).
the goals of the protocol / software are:
* to create a democratic federation of anchors that can all issue same tokenized currency
* no private entity like theter will have total dominance and control over such a token
* total transparency of the monetary base
* total transparency of the protocol and governance
we will release the specifications of the protocol for public consultations with the stellar community, and we hope to have feedback.
we also hope if stellar community will support our idea that also stellar foundation would like to get involved since we believe that if we pull this off and make it very easy for anchors to issue virtual eur this will help the whole stellar project to scale very fast and to get a lot of traction.
thank you !
ps: we are doing this because we need this software because we will be a regulated anchor to issue veur but we think making this part of the software free and open and adding the possibility to create a federation will help adoption and will benefit us all. even if some of our competitors will benefit from this open/free software if this will spark mass adoption we will be better of with a small slice from a much bigger cake.

bdab22604e0dd2fbd08fab1fdc928224 | since the beginning i wanted to write something about the [stellar network](https://www.stellar.org/how-it-works/stellar-basics/) that is related to my personal experience using it. as i read about the integration processes for developers, stellar’s business model, the network structure i found myself more and more involved with this decentralized network.
some parts were very technical to be understood completely by a law student and marketing manager like me. however, i think the idea of an **open source software** that allows anchors to make financial transactions for their clients following a trusting base relation with lower costs and efficiency is brilliant. also, the social concern that stellar foundation shows by providing free cost financial transactions to people that can’t afford to pay for each operation is inspiring.
i could spend hours talking about my feelings and thoughts related to those foundation and network but for now i decided to talk about **my experience** with the [wallets](https://www.stellar.org/about/directory#wallets) that provide to any users the possibility to send and receive xlm or other currencies with [almost free cost](https://www.stellar.org/developers/guides/concepts/fees.html).
in order to share this experience better, i'll talk briefly about each wallet i used. i hope my impressions can be helpful and enlightening to other people that, like me, are interested in stellar but are still beginners in this platform. even more, i want those impressions to help developers improve the current tools to users and design other useful ones.
**first experience: testing centaurus, stargazer and lobstr**
i asked for a friend’s opinion about which wallet he thought is better, as he uses stellar for longer time, and he told me i should download [centaurus](https://play.google.com/store/apps/detailsid=de.xcoins.centaurus&hl=pt_pt) . it is a wallet for android only and was the first one available on google store. this wallet has really basic design and features, just the minimum.
i tested it by first receiving 500 xlm that were sent from this friend centaurus account. by clicking the “receive” button, the wallet gives you a stellar address that you can share with the person that will send the currency and a qr code that this person can scan instead. the problem is that if the receiver is not in the same place as the one who sends, which is more likely, he/she needs to insert the receiver’s public address that the wallet creates with a lot of letters and numbers.
what i noticed is that the centaurus wallet saves the accounts that made transactions with you as contacts automatically. this is already different than the stargazer wallet, which gives the option to add as contact accounts that had activities with yours, and even write comments about each activity.
this experience with centaurus was, in general, positive. the currency value that my account received appeared a few seconds later in my wallet, after refreshing the application. it is important to quote that this wallet has other languages options than english: french, german, japanese and dutch. it also shows all your recent transactions in the history, receiving and sending currencies.
i decided to download other two wallets that are available for android, [stargazer](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.futuretense.stargazer.wallet&hl=pt_pt) and [lobstr](https://lobstr.co/). however, i wanted to send some xlm from my centaurus account to those other wallets and check if it would also work fine.
stargazer has also a very basic design, not appealing at all, and gave me the possibility to create multiple accounts, personal or shared, on the same application. it also gave me the option to change the language from english to eight different languages, which is a nice feature considering that stellar is internationally known and used, even though it doesn’t have the option to be used in portuguese yet. lastly, it allows the user to create a federated name to use instead of the pre-configured address, so the user can make it easier and more personalized.
having the option to create a federated name is great, as long as the users transfer and receive money between stargazer accounts. i tried to receive some lumens in stargazer from my centaurus account, as it needed minimum value of 20 xlm to be activated, and when i sent my federated address to centaurus it didn’t recognize it as a valid destination address.
i couldn't erase my federated name, just change to a different one, so i created another personal account and tried to receive lumens from the centaurus account only with the stellar address given. stargazer didn't give me the option to share my stellar address with another account as centaurus gave and i also couldn't copy it directly. this is a problem i didn't find a solution, how to receive lumens in stargazer from a different wallet.
after this first try, i did the opposite operation: shared my account from centaurus to stargazer in order to send lumens from this wallet to that one. this operation worked because i could share the exact address from centaurus to stargazer, even though it came with some words indicating the centaurus wallet that i had to erase.
to finish those first experiences with wallets, i tried to use my lobstr account. unlike the other two wallets, lobstr didn’t open automatically an account to be used on the android. it gave me options to create a new wallet with any name i wish or link an existing wallet to this one. yet, when i tried to create one, it gave me a message that it’s not possible to create any new wallets for now. until this problem is fixed, i can’t give a feedback about lobstr.
in conclusion, between centaurus, stargazer and lobstr, i would choose centaurus as an android wallet simply because it was easier to use and it gave me the option to share directly my stellar address instead of just qr code to scan. stargazer has just a few more features and language options but both are very similar in simple design and reliable use. i intend to test more wallets, this time web or windows, and give more feedback about them in my next article.
cheers!

### **title**
[lumenswap](https://lumenswap.com/) - decentralized swap protocol for the stellar network.
### **summary**
lumenswap is a decentralized swap protocol for the stellar network that allows you to convert assets on the network using a friendly, minimal interface.
### **category**
applications
### **goals**
lumenswap aims to create a simple and minimal platform for swapping assets on the stellar network. this allows users to learn about the power and fundamental features of stellar for moving assets.
### **the benefit of lumenswap for the stellar network**
having more applications that allow users to move their assets will make it easier for users to work with the network. this, in turn, increases the liquidity of the assets on the network. however, these applications can only achieve their goals if they have beautiful user interfaces and create enjoyable experiences like stellarx and stellarterm.
### **structure**
**overall structure**
client -> lumenswap-> horizen -> stellar network

**swap**
here, you can convert your assets. here’s a more detailed, technical explanation:
once you submit a swap request (e.g., 1 btc for 10 eth), we send the request to the network using horizon api and perform a path payment strict send operation (with you as both the sender and receiver). depending on your order size and stellar’s order books, if the order can be handled, you’ll receive a success message and the swap will be performed. if the network cannot handle your order based on that moment’s order books, you’ll receive the following message:
“your order is too large to be processed by the network. do you want to register it as an active order on the network?”
if you approve the message, we’ll run a manage buy operation using horizon. the order will remain open and active and it’ll be executed to the possible extent. the remainder will remain open and can be managed in the ‘active orders’ section.

**send (soon)**
there are two types of requests:
1- basic send
this is a normal asset transfer to an address on the network exactly like you do in your wallet.
after submitting the send request, it will be sent on the network using horizon api and a payment operation will be executed to transfer the assets to the specified address. just like that.
2- send + swap
this is perfect for when you want to send one type of asset and have the other end receive another type. this is like hitting two birds with one stone: first a swap and then a send.
suppose you want to send $200, but the receiver specifies eth as their preferred asset type. to do this, you need to activate a send+swap switch.
as usual, a request is sent to the network using horizon which involves a path payment strict send operation (with your address as the sender and the entered address as the receiver). if the network can handle the order based on its order books at the moment of request, the operation will be executed and you’ll receive a success message. otherwise, you’ll receive an error message. in this case, you can increase the tolerance to reduce the minimum received value so that the network can handle the request.
note: this section will be released on july 15

**minimum received**
this is the minimum amount of an asset you’ll receive after the swap. the network will always give you the best recommendation, but this specifies the minimum amount.
**set slippage tolerance**
this shows the minimum you’ll receive. higher percentages mean you’ll receive less.
**path**
this represents the best path to convert the specified assets based on the order books on the network.
**orders page**
this part consists of two sections:
1-active orders
here, you can view and delete your open or active orders.
2-completed orders
here, you can view the completed orders or trades.
**calculator for estimated price**
lumenswap calculator uses the last registered orders on the network to estimate asset prices on the network (the calculations are performed using pairs of xlm and specific assets).
suppose you want to get eth in exchange for usd. once you input 1 eth, you’ll automatically get 200 usd. how are these values calculated?
in the example above, we’ll obtain the usd/xlm price based on the last buy order on the network and determine eth price based on the last eth/xlm sell order. the calculated number is then displayed on the interface. note that this is an estimation and not an exact number.
note: based on our observations of the order books, the best paths mostly consist of xlm pairs.
for example:
snt -> llo
best path:
snt -> xlm -> llo
**connect wallet**
to use lumenswap, you need to connect your account.
right now, there one way to do this:
private key: to use this method, you should directly enter your private key. the key will be stored locally on your browser and deleted as soon as you log out or refresh the page. (lumenswap is an open-source application and you can review our source code to make sure everything is normal).
soon, we’ll have two methods by connecting to the ledger.
**listening assets**
given the free and distributed nature of blockchains, we designed lumenswap to let anyone swap any assets. right now, popular assets with sufficient value are available on the platform. you can also add custom to be swapped using the following format:
format:
lumenswap.io/asset code1-issuer address1/asset code2-issuer address2
for example:
lax -> eth
lumenswap.com/lax-gazzb5kpowewk4c5s5h5b6ypr2eqmuijeffbnq6mwyyag7doeelbohlw/eth-gbdevu63y6nthjqqzikvtc23nwlqvp3wj2ri2otsjtnyoigicst6duxr
note: use ‘xlm’ for xlm asset.
for example:
lax -> xlm
lumenswap.com/lax-gazzb5kpowewk4c5s5h5b6ypr2eqmuijeffbnq6mwyyag7doeelbohlw/xlm

for the next build challenge, we want to introduce scopuly, a cross-platform purse built for stellar, using better security.
we are working to create the most multifunctional decentralized blockchain application, which will solve most of the main tasks in the existing and future cryptoeconomics.
scopuly is a cross-platform wallet and dex for stellar network. it supports android, ios, macos and windows platforms.
features:
- crypto-currency wallet
convenient and safe storing/sending of crypto currency and tokens
- issue of crypto assets
tokenization of any kinds of material and non-material assets
- crowdfunding / ico
fundraising through ico with the best industry standards
- trade in crypto assets
decentralized p2p exchange of any kinds of crypto assets
scopuly allows you to safely store and instantly transfer your crypto-currency assets, issue your own crypto assets and launch ico campaigns, invest in ico projects, and also decentralize the exchange of crypto-assets (dex) in real time.
scopuly is a decentralized, cross-platform application (dap) built on stellar blockchain.

our plans for 2018-2019:
- multicurrency payments
- implementation of more detailed statistics of market activity of tokens
- implementation of the creation and implementation of custom ico on the platform. this will include the full cycle of creating and conducting ico - from the release of real block-tokens, and sell them to project investors.
- the mechanism of tokenization of any types of assets will be greatly improved. to release new tokens in scopuly it will be possible to set a lot of useful parameters.
- the token trading system will be improved. this will allow holders of different tokens directly from their balance to trade tokens directly: any token can be exchanged for any other directly without reference to the underlying asset xlm.
- also, we are actively working on improving the system of multi-signatures on purses (adding remote signers)
- development of desktop clients for macos, windows, linux
please, we need your help!
we want to make sure that we are working on what supports the stellar community, and this is what people really want. we like your feedback, ideas, perspectives and suggestions about what we should focus on.

3ef743a1cbd66e5073efc812de05d061 | hi,
i would like to know more about the stellar smart contracts and exactly how complex a contract stellar can handle.
i mean how far away is stellar from handling the type of contracts that run on eth?
i have heard turing is coming soon, can anyone explain exactly what this will allow.
thanks

8e3b7c365fe8eea661e735d895efee09 | **project title: tradedirect.io**
**summary:**
tradedirect.io is a peer to peer escrow website to buy and sell lumens and other stellar assets for fiat currency.
**goals:**
enable all people to buy and sell lumens and other stellar assets from other people without having to use a cryptocurrency exchange.
**description:**
tradedirect.io is based on localbitcoins. we aim to do for the stellar ecosystem what localbitcoins does for bitcoin.
that provides people with the option to buy and sell lumens and other stellar tokens for fiat currency without having to use a cryptocurrency exchange.
the project has been in development for a year already and we are nearing a first version which i am confident we can release to the general public.
here is a list of functionality that is working as we speak:
* user signup/profile management
* users can create advertisements
+ advertisements can be fixed price
+ advertisements can also follow market price with an offset. for example, you can create an advertisement to sell xlm that follows the market price
- or - x percent. tradedirect will automatically recalculate the actual price every 15 minutes. this way you don't have to constantly update advertisement prices.
* users can search advertisements
* users can message each other when they are in a trade
* once a user is interested in an advertisement he can start a trade with the owner of that advertisement. when both parties agree
on the price and terms the trade is initiated. the party that is selling the cryptocurrency now has to deposit the agreed amount into our escrow wallet.
once the other party has made the payment according to terms tradedirect releases the funds from the escrow wallet and the trade is concluded.
currently, there are 2 limits on the trading volume:
* a single trade can have a max value of 500 usd.
* the 2 weeks rolling average of your trades can be a maximum of 2000 usd.
the reason for these restrictions is that we do not want to get in trouble with money laundering laws or anything.
in the future, we aim to implement a kyc feature for the users that want higher limits. see the roadmap below.
link: <https://www.tradedirect.io> , our github is privately hosted for the moment.
**roadmap:**
now that the basic functionality of the application is done we have several improvements targeted that we want to make in the future.
no hard dates are set for this right now as we are a very small software shop. some of the things we aim to implement are:
* kyc verification for higher trading limits
* support functionality to remediate conflicts in trades
* a full rebuild of the user interface
**additional stuff:**
tradedirect is a project that has been ongoing for quite a while. certain technology choices were made in the past which now severely limit us on a couple of things.
we are aware that the look and feel of things feels a bit outdated. because of the choices made in the past it is not easy to change this right now.
also, our main developer ( me...) is a backend / devops guy so ui design is hard for me 🙂
should we secure funding through the scf or any other means we plan to use part of these funds to have the frontend redesigned and rebuild from scratch.
**q & a:**
can you add tokens other than xlm?
* yes, the backend was designed in a way that we only need to add a trust line in the escrow wallet to a new token and enable it in our backend.
why do you ask for my private keys?
* for the escrow process, we need the seller of cryptocurrency to sign a transaction with his private key. this process is designed in a way
that the entire transaction signing is done in the frontend in javascript. so your private key is never sent to our servers so we will never have access to your wallet in any way.
are you really sure that you don't use my private key?
* we are willing to let independent people from the stellar community audit our code. our code is privately hosted at the moment but if this is a concern
we are definitely willing to make changes and let people from the community audit the code.

i am little bit confused about anchors and issuers. while developing in the toml file i found for one anchor there are multiple issuers. how anchor and issuers are related?
how can a wallet truest the issued asset if there are multiple issuers.

how issuers ensure trust over the issuing assets?

### title
[answerly](http://answerly.app) - rewarding the users for sharing information
### summary
answerly is a q/a platform that allows the users to earn crypto rewards for adding high-quality answers on different questions.
### category
applications, tools & infrastructure
### goals
our goal is to build the most advanced q/a platform that allows the users to make part-time or even full-time income. there are a number of other crypto-based projects that allow users to earn rewards for adding content. however, the user's earnings on those platforms solely rely upon absurd factors such as upvote count, amount of crypto locked in their wallets, etc. in such a scenario, users with a lesser number of followers find it impossible to make any noteworthy amount of rewards. we believe that the best answers should be judged by the quality of the content instead of the number of upvotes it has received (since these metrics can easily be manipulated). therefore, we're working on an algorithm that would determine the best answer on any particular question by taking into account 18 different factors, preventing any sort of possibility of gaming the system.
our other goal is to attract non-crypto users to our platform and contribute to increasing the overall adoption of cryptocurrencies. we believe that this can only be possible if the rewarding and withdrawal system is made simple and easy to understand for people who have no background knowledge and experience in dealing with cryptocurrencies. that's the reason we chose to issues our token (ansr) on the stellar blockchain. we can easily utilize the existing services like lobstr, tempo, stellar based exchanges, etc to achieve what we need.
### description
the basic concept is to reward the users for posting well-explained and accurate answers on different questions. answerly allows users to earn rewards for two different types of activities:
a. posting questions: users will receive fixed rewards for posting questions.
b. posting answers: answer rewards would vary depending upon the user’s level on the platform.
once the user has reached the minimum withdrawal threshold, he can easily withdraw his earnings on his stellar wallet.
stellar wallet: by withdrawing his earnings on the stellar wallet, the user would receive an email along with other important instructions. in order to make this process smooth, we’re utilizing the services of a very well-known stellar based project called lobstr. using this service would help us in the following areas:
a. eliminate the need of depositing lumens for stellar wallet activation.
b. eliminate the need to manually issuing a trustline for ansr.
**note:** we've discussed things like revenue model, spam controlling, user levels, answerly pro, etc in our whitepaper. the link to the whitepaper is mentioned below. i highly recommend that you check that out.
### timeline
we've been working on this project since jan 2019 and have come a really long way. we've just launched our beta-testing phase but since the development is still in progress, you may come across a few bugs. here's the list of things that we are planning to pull-off within the next 6-8 months:
1. implementation of all planned features - aug 2020
2. answerly pro - sep 2020
3. professional redesign of desktop and mobile website - dec 2020
4. marketing and seo - feb 2021
5. best answer and search algorithm - march 2021
6. app launch - june 2021
### why do we require the funds
so far we've spent a little over 12k usd on this project over the course of 18 months. this money was utilized for:
* development
* explainer video
* incorporating
* hosting
* sms verification implementation
* plagiarism checking, etc.
at this point, we need around 55k usd for the following things:
* professional ui (desktop web, mobile web and app) ~ 8k usd
* further development ~ 20k usd (this includes complete development of desktop and mobile web & apps)
* content writers ~ 15k usd
* hosting and other 3rd party apps ~ 10k usd
the reason we've not added any marketing budget is because, it would be an ongoing expense and would vary according to the stage we're at. we don't want to think a lot about marketing at this point
### how can answerly be useful for the stellar ecosystem
we plan to target people who have never been involved in cryptocurrencies in any way. this mostly include bloggers and small and medium-sized online businesses. since the users will be required to withdraw the earnings of their stellar wallets, we believe that it will help in increasing the overall stellar community.
### why did we decide to use stellar blockchain to issue our token
**fast transactions**
**low transaction fees**
**issuing trust:** this is especially useful during an airdrop. it can filter out many fake participants.
**feeless dex**
**path payments:** we plan to implement a system where the users withdraw ansr tokens but receive usd or eur on their stellar wallets.
### some important things
we've also incorporated our company is the us (delaware). you may check out the link to incorporation document below.

### summary:
[freevoting](https://blueorion.cc/votehome) - voting service secured on the stellar blockchain to enable independent, immutable and verifiable elections.
### category:
applications
### goals:
we want to provide a full working voting platform which can be used in all countries, the objectives are:
1) creation and administration of election settings
2) voters can participate without owning a crypto account
3) authentication based on email and two-factor-authentication (mobile, authcode, ...)
4) automated creation of public election documents secured by hash in the stellar blockchain
5) automated creation of personal voting documents which prove the election participation
6) vote submission from client browser (js) to provide anonymity.
7) creation of election token to enable easy to understand transparency on voting results.
### description:
due to the covid-19 situation i see a need of "easy to use" election platforms. with our solution every organization can vote online without the need of meeting in person. i also got inspired by the last scf submission of stellot.com and discussed the blind signature approach with the submitter to enable full anonymity.
#### why is the voting platform valuable for stellar?
the stellar network will be exposed to a wider community which has not been in touch with crypto or stellar yet. it also will show and prove the unique features of stellar. only with fast transaction times, it is possible to create a responsive blockchain voting solution.
this application will enable a free and independent voting solution for all countries with instable government structures . in this sense we see our platform as another solution to enable democratic structures in remote areas. similar to the stellar projects which enable free banking services.
#### technical solution
to achive the main requirements we created a process which is based on the following aspects:
1) election token: for each election we create a unique stellar token which is used for all voting activites of this election.
2) each voter has one vote: we use the specific stellar infrastructure of channel accounts and sequence number
to ensure that one user only can vote one time by javascript within the browser.
3) transparence: the vote submission will be done directly via javascript from the voters browser. the
transaction id of the vote entry will be shown immediatly to the voter. this means the vote goes directly from voter (browser) to the network. the server can not interferre into the submission process.
4) proof of documents: there are two election documents:
a) the election setup pdf with all voting details and voter emails and
b) the election results pdf.
the hash of both documents is written into the stellar blockchain to prove all election details for later reference.
5) election audit: we also plan to have a third party to do an audit on the election process. if the election went
fine, a thrird party can approve that the election was done according to the rules.

"text": "yep, the previous problem was caused by maildrop.cc. who would know? i used that service in the past and it worked without any problems. continued testing and here are some notes:\n\n\n* the subject of the email i received states \"admin init - 238\". it would be great to write something more intuitive.\n* i thought that once the creator clicks the activation link, all users specified in the invites field will automatically receive email invitations with the survey links (at least that how it works in traditional online survey systems). but you actually send the poll invitation link that has to be sent directly to the respondent by the survey initiator. when i click the link the system asks for the authentication. i had to copy-paste the respondent address email again, and only then the respondent receives the invitation email. if you worried that people will use your system for spamming, ask for the survey creation fee (like, 100xlm) to prevent potential bad actors from exploiting it.\n* when i finally got to the next step, the website returned the following error:\n\n```\nfatal error: uncaught argumentcounterror:\ntoo few arguments to function p_election_voter_options(), 2 passed in /var/www/blueorion.cc/public_html/index_election.php on line 88 and exactly 3 expected in /var/www/blueorion.cc/php/p_election.php:354\nstack trace:\n#0 /var/www/blueorion.cc/public_html/index_election.php(88): p_election_voter_options(array, '<!doctype html>...')\n#1 {main} thrown in /var/www/blueorion.cc/php/p_election.php on line 354\n```\n\n(the link itself: <https://blueorion.cc/elvote-238-bio1qj2e9tdn5s3lyehky7qn6ml2sw9nzumac6p8rei4v7yupo0vgfpjkatbmtds>)\n\n\nalso, i checked the screenshot and the link on the block explorer. the voting progress and results are recorded using custom token, that's very cool! it potentially allows using poll results in smart contracts logic. this a core building block for daos and governance. at the moment i don't fully understand where those tokens lend in the end, so looking forward to continue testing once you fix the issue with the server.\n\n\none more suggestion regarding results. i assume that you write aggregated results in a file upon survey competition and save them on your server. this is not really decentralized or durable, since your server can go offline or switch to some other protocol in the future. how about query and show all results on the fly when a user visits the survey info page? everything is stored on the ledger, so you can fetch all transactions and aggregate results using js on the client side. this sounds like a more \"trustless approach\"; the results calculation logic doesn't depend on your backend in this case.\n\n\nre: open voting – you can list all on-going surveys on the website, but invite users into the poll by sending survey tokens to their accounts when they click a \"participate\" button. alternatively, you can also check additional preconditions before sending tokens and allow only specific users based on the survey participation criteria (e.g. only accounts older than one year, or accounts with at least 100 eurt, or only accounts holding reddit photon tokens).\n\n",

"text": "[orbitlens](https://galactictalk.org/d/2420/17) thanks again for testing. based on your last feedback, i started working on an open voting version. i still think open elections or surveys might be not the main focus, but it would be good to draw more attention to the platform, as it would be very easy to provide a participation link (without knowing the email). also a participation button towards ongoing surveys on the website is a great idea.\n\n\nhere is my feedback on your last entry:\n\n\n**implemented / solved**\n\n\n* website error: is fixed now (function call was not updated on the prod-server) note: as you posted the authenticated link above anybody can vote using this link. after one time voting the link will be not valid any more.\n\n\n**in discussion**\n\n\n* email subject: \"admin init - 238\": yes true its very technical, as for the prototype i keep it simple, but definitely can be improved\n* automatically receive email invitations: as you write currently the admin needs to send the invitation email to the voters by himself. this has the advantage that the admin can define the email text by himself. i propably will provide the option, if a) the admin wants to send the email by himself or b) the emails will be sent automatically (this is necessary anyway, if we have a higher number of voters)\n* prevent spamming: yes i installed that email verification on election creation to avoid spamming. to ask for a fee could be an option. as for now, giving easy access to test is important and i want to keep it free of fees.\n* decentralized check on results: \n\n a) as implemented: all votes are written into the blockchain and therefore the results can be reproduced any time without the server, just by counting the votes/memos. \n\n b) as implemented: the results pdf is hashed and also written into the blockchain, so if you store the pdf you can prove the results anytime later on without relying on the server \n\n c) currently we check the entries on the blockchain and store it temporary to have a fast access. as you write there also could be a script which creates the voting results on the fly. then this would be a open source script anybody can execute to get the results on a certain election. and our platform is not needed at all. did you mean that? maybe that script could be also provided by third parties/blockexplorer?\n* \"participate\" button: great idea, also regarding the additional preconditions\n",

i propose that stellar invest more time an energy into social media and online blogs/videos to increase the prominence and popularity of the company. their twitter has little over 12,000 followers and i couldn't even find a facebook page for them. being more active in the realm of social media by making a facebook page to better interact with users, posting videos on a blog, or even an e-newsletter could serve to spread the word of stellar's existence across the globe and make the brand appealing to a much wider potential user base.

two years, five pivotal architecture revisions, hundreds of discussions, countless coding hours, plus a secret ingredient - invaluable feedback from brilliant stellar ecosystem developers and sdf.
truly long and bumpy road from the delegated signer prototype [published](https://galactictalk.org/d/1192-stellarexpert-id-single-sign-on-app-and-tx-signer-for-stellar-network) back in 2018 to the production-ready app.
and finally, meet [albedo](https://albedo.link) – a security-centric, developer-friendly, and at the same time, easy-to-use delegated signer for stellar network. something i can be absolutely proud of, even despite the fact that it took
ten times more effort than i initially expected. so let me explain a bit why i'm so excited about this particular project.
intro
-----
albedo provides a safe and reliable way to use your stellar account without trusting anyone with a secret key.
it is not a wallet. it's a keystore web app and browser extension (currently available for [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kbojmmmibkfijmjgnfgfpngmmgkkpncl) and [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/albedo-signer-for-stellar/)). think of it as a bridge for other applications which allows them to ask permission to sign a transaction or verify identity on the user's behalf so that the same account can be used across the whole universe of stellar applications. people kept asking about metamask for stellar, and here it is – with a slightly different interface, yet packed with unique features.
but there are dozens of existing stellar wallets out there, why invent yet another one?
first of all, creating a new account each time you want to check a shiny new promising app, wallet, or trading interface may be quite exhaustive. things like [sep-7](https://github.com/stellar/stellar-protocol/blob/master/ecosystem/sep-0007.md) were intended to deal with the problem, but the protocol used is far from perfection (after working for a while with this standard, i can write a separate long read article on shortcomings of such an approach). just like "sign in with google" button allows you to log in and authorize actions for all services and third-party websites that support google oauth, albedo was designed to be the single access point to the multitude of stellar apps over a unified protocol.

furthermore, each wallet wants direct access to your secret key. and who knows how they are going to store and protect it? what if hackers take over the server and drain funds from all accounts? sad story, and it happened before.
we've done everything possible to reach the maximum keystore security. secret keys are encrypted with your password and safely stored in the browser. of course, it's not a hardware wallet, but i'm quite sure albedo might be
one of the safest options for storing keys in the browser.
sensitive data never leaves your computer/smartphone, never transmitted over the network, never stored on remote servers, so no one has access to your secret key, even us. internally, the browser provides a protected sandbox preventing other tabs or external websites from accessing user's data. why it's important? because it means that we eliminate the most dangerous vector of wallet attacks, mitigating a risk that attackers can gain control over all stored
accounts after only one successful server hack.

another ultimate objective we were trying to achieve (and i think we definitely reached this goal) is to simplify the development of stellar apps. from the developer's perspective, it takes only a few lines of code to turn
any website into a production-ready stellar wallet.
transactions building, signing, validation, error handling – we have everything covered. there is no need to implement a keystore, build a dozen interfaces for transaction processing, and worry about security. in fact, things like payment requests can be implemented without any coding at all, therefore allowing instant
"stellarization" of any marketplace or even a basic wordpress site by simply copy-pasting code produced by the
[payment request generator](https://albedo.link/playground#payment-request).
at the same time, albedo provides a set of low-level tools for working with complex multi-sig schemes, making it a perfect match for advanced stellar-based applications and smart-contracts.

all features at a glance
------------------------

**secure key management**
secret keys never sent over the internet and never exposed to third-party
services.

**secure transaction signing**
robust protection backed by isolated transactions signing inside the browser
sandbox.

**web apps single sign-on**
log into third-party websites with your stellar account, just like with
google/facebook oauth.

**multi-account support**
use multiple accounts, as well as hardware wallets, and switch them on the fly.

**trustlines creation**
create anchor trustlines and participate in token airdrops in one click.

**works everywhere**
seamless experience across different browsers and operating systems,
desktops and smartphones.

**sep-0007 compatible**
handles "web+stellar" links – wider support for different stellar ecosystem
services.

**universal account**
expand the reach of your app and forget about on-boarding. every stellar user
is your user now. we'll take care of all account-related things.

**instant jumpstart**
no need to create yet another keystore and transactions processing pipeline.
focus on what really matters for your app while saving months of work on
trivial things.

**powerful abstraction layer**
albedo handles all low-level details (transaction building, signing, multi-sig,
validation, error processing) while providing a streamlined api interface.

**signing multi-tool**
multiple signing option – albedo accounts, hardware wallets, direct secret
key input, sep-0007 links. complex logic is hidden from the caller app
behind the unified generic interface.

**easy to integrate**
a single lightweight js package, no other dependencies, works out of the box
in any modern browser – desktop or mobile.

**enhanced security**
security-first approach with a client-side encrypted keystore,
fully sandboxed environment, and proven cryptography.

**effortless ico and airdrops**
setup tokensales and airdrop claim forms in minutes. selling your asset on dex?
embed a tiny script into your website, and you are good to go.

**public-key cryptography**
build custom authentication or notary schemes with arbitrary data signing
and verification tools using stellar keypairs.
more magic on the way
---------------------
in addition to the functionality mentioned above, we are also preparing several other exciting updates.
an extended transaction validation is at the top of our priorities list. currently, the verification before sending a tx to the horizon is one of the most annoying problems for wallets. and it is certainly not as straightforward as it might look. a good wallet must check everything: stellar addresses, sequence number, fees, trustlines, existing dex offers, even things like sufficient authorization for multisig accounts. it might not be problematic when a wallet builds a transaction right before sending it to the network, but everything becomes much more complicated when it comes to the pre-signed, multi-account transactions, or smart contracts.
currently, we identified 46 different potential error cases starting from trivial (like a non-existing source/destination account) and ending with tricky situations – too many signatures, trustline limit exceeded, trustline not revocable, etc.
our main goal here is to provide a comprehensive automatic validation for incoming transactions. it makes life much easier for both a user and app developer. users don't need to worry whether a transaction will come through. on the other hand, developers can go ahead with very basic validation on their side as albedo will automatically check everything and return a specific error description back to the app.
besides that, we are working on federation addresses support, new multisig aggregation service, built-in kyc information provider, and, of course, interface improvements to make the user experience even more streamlined and user-friendly.
where to start
--------------
that's probably evident enough from this announcement itself, but i'd like to point out that albedo is an infrastructure project in the first place, and this is mostly a developer-oriented post.
if you already build things on stellar or want to give it a try but don't know how to start, then check our [playground](https://albedo.link/playground) where you can experiment with a declarative approach to submitting stellar
transactions.
for instance, here is what you can do without even installing stellarsdk:
```
//import tiny interface library
import albedo from '@albedo-link/intent'
//request user's account address
albedo.publickey()
.then(res => console.log('public key: ' + res.pubkey))
//pay 15 eurt tokens to account gdd4…tqhq with memo "congrats!"
albedo.pay({
amount: '15',
destination: 'gdd46j3tmnu5l7nci6chdjhpkw4qk2lfkrydohttkv67rlt3gaqwtqhq',
asset_code: 'eurt',
asset_issuer: 'gap5letov6yie62yam56stdanprdo7zfdbgsnhjqiyggksmozahoos2s',
memo: 'congrats!',
submit: true
})
.then(res => console.log('success'))
//prepare and sign a transaction to buy 0.1 btc
albedo.exchange({
sell_asset_code: 'usd',
sell_asset_issuer: 'gdukmgugdzqk6yhya5z6ay2g4xdszpsz3sw5un3arvmo6qsrdwp5ylex',
buy_asset_code: 'btc',
buy_asset_issuer: 'gautuyy2thlf7sgitdfmxjvyh3lhdsmgeaksbu267m2k7a3w543ckuef',
amount: '0.1',
max_price: '1000'
})
.then(res => console.log(res.signed_envelope_xdr))
//request user's signature of arbitrary data
albedo.signmessage({
message: 'notary approval'
})
.then(res => console.log(res.pubkey, res.message, res.message_signature))
```
at the same time, for regular users, albedo will be of little use at the moment because it hasn't been integrated anywhere yet. during the past few months, we've been actively discussing it with sdf and ecosystem devs to ensure that albedo is robust and ready for production usage. as a side result of this peer review, we have preliminary agreements, so in the nearest future you'll see a bunch of wallets, trading services, and various apps utilizing albedo api.
stay tuned for our upcoming announcements and blog posts. we will be grateful for any feedback – try [albedo](https://albedo.link) and let us know what do you think. and if you spot any issues, please submit a [bug report](https://github.com/stellar-expert/albedo/issues).

da8b685ed1e93b805ef9985e3d126258 | for this round of the sbc, we will be continuing with this interactive format. we believe this exposes the submissions earlier in the process to feedback not just from sdf but from everyone in the community.
at least two weeks before the deadline any submission must make a thread in this forum with the [sbc](https://galactictalk.org/t/sbc) tag. the post should have:
* description of the project
* link to the project
* link to the repo if open source
* list of updates since first posted
we encourage people to post their project as early in the process as possible. and we encourage the community to try out the submissions and give feedback:
* what do you like
* what could be better
* what is confusing
* what is broken

**project title:** trybal.network - promoting stellar ecosystem adoption
**summary**: social experiment to provide a zero-barrier entry to the stellar network, building a crypto community and promoting stellar based projects.
**category:** applications, tools, infrastructure
**goals:** raising awareness for the stellar network through fair global distribution of a new cryptocurrency-token created by activity of the users. specifically targeting emerging markets and developing nations. dedicated to be the marketing platform for promotion of the stellar ecosystem.
**description:** trybal.network is the stellar based answer to projects like minepi, initiativeq or more recently “ecoinofficial”.
* minepi wants to fork stellar to add an unnecessary feature which is the only reason for their “pi currency”. at the time of writing, minepi is just numbers in a database. the ‘node’ they are testing can only be run on high end desktop computers, a complete counter to their initial arguments.
* initiativeq dubbed the “new global currency”, will not be based on blockchain, but on unspecified “new payment technologies”. at the time of writing and the foreseeable future it’s also just numbers in a db.
* ecoinofficial’s website raises a lot of red flags. they advertise(d) with potentially being worth $100 per coin and now with a future value of $1 per coin while trading at $0.001
while we would never endorse any of these projects, they have one thing in common which is unprecedented growth:
inititiveq: 3.5 million users in 2 years
minepi: 3.5 million users in less than a year
ecoinofficial: claims 2,000,000+ users in 28 days
our thought was: when they can do this without an actual token and without blockchain, we should be able to at least resemble their success with a token on stellar livenet and without the misleading marketing.
**what does your project enable users to do?**
users register an account, confirm their email-address and start claiming free try on stellar livenet every 24 hours. every user will be provided with a wallet account to track and show balance of the assets he owns (currently limited to try and xlm). given enough funding is available, the account will be created by us. optional the user can create the account himself by sending 1.51 xlm.
on account creation the home-domain option on stellar is set to trybal.network/u/username to link to the upcoming profile page where proof can be looked up to verify a user.
users can improve their daily claim by being active and adding more social proof. currently we are supporting keybase as the first verification option with a similar process as stellarcommunity.fund. the user has to enter their keybase username on trybal.network and receives a confirmation link from our bot.
**why is your project valuable for stellar?**
we are specifically targeting emerging markets and developing nations. almost everyone agrees that this is the most potential market for wide adoption of cryptocurrencies.
with a project positioned to promote the stellar ecosystem, marketing expenses of sdf, sdf partners and new independent projects can be cut by a big margin. we will be able to run a general campaign, by interests, target certain countries (for example argentina and brazil for vibrant), twitter, instagram, facebook campaigns and more at a fraction of what individual campaigns would cost.
as shown with examples of other projects, trybal.network has the potential to bring millions of new users to stellar. for our mvp, we have validated minepi's model for social engagement. with limited marketing, we've been able to signup 40,000 users for trybal in less than three weeks, many of whom have never used stellar before.
in the near future, we want to introduce our users to the #stellarfamily of projects building on stellar, encouraging them with incentives in try or xlm and are already in talks with several stellar based projects for future cooperation.
**how does your project use stellar?**
stellar accounts we use (for reference):
* issuer of try token:
gdoyifhyt7cqvjkfmxoxxoyrvmimh27vfpawqwaf4m6v2cpodam2stry
the account that creates try by sending it to the distributor account.
* distributor of try token:
gab67kmz24krky6ltou5n4t4myd6j3if2bhutgys6tiz5g7pxhexgtry
this account distributes all the try claimed by members.
* funding new accounts:
gc4envbstrbecbjrnatj3l222e46g2vxnawardoexqcyovvskadlfund
this account is used to create/fund accounts of newly registered users with xlm.
* intermediate:
gcfaqqeurrgs3y34tv4psh4lgs3koxfg5jekjj4leijaa7vvbtt3rint
if the user hasn't activated their account, try of unfunded accounts will be sent here and automatically sent to the users account as soon as it has been created.
we generate a new stellar keypair for every new registered user that also confirmed their email-address.
to create/fund the account on stellar, we require 1.51 xlm (1 xlm minimum balance, 0.5 xlm for the trustline and 0.01 xlm as a reserve for transactions).

at first, we funded every confirmed account but soon realized that a percentage of users only claimed their welcome bonus or only came back to claim every few days.
to save xlm for funding accounts, the process was changed to have the user initiate the creation/funding of their account with a simple click on the wallet tab. this click triggers the operation to send 1.51 xlm from fund to the users public key, establish the trustline to try, set their home domain to a possible profile page and send any try that was claimed previously from the intermediate account. all operations in one transaction.
example of an account funded by us before first claim:
[gbzbn764g2vzp6orits7qpzuhtvz7uiydu45vrd4ffvghck2gxkt3dqd](https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/account/gbzbn764g2vzp6orits7qpzuhtvz7uiydu45vrd4ffvghck2gxkt3dqd)
example of an account funded by us after claiming:
[gdvg4m5nyfk4pwja3yedklaz7gxdajkylfpshza4bccqcasorjzn2cca](https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/account/gdvg4m5nyfk4pwja3yedklaz7gxdajkylfpshza4bccqcasorjzn2cca)
due to the high rate of registrations, our funding pool for the beta test was exhausted pretty fast but we had prepared for this szenario. if the fund account has less than 5 xlm balance, the user will see this message on his wallet tab:

as you can see in this example, the user was still able to claim try. users with unfunded accounts on stellar will see their claims being transferred to our intermediate account.
the user can create/fund their on-chain account with 1.51 xlm. this is of course 100% optional. we check the balance of accounts on every log in. after successful funding, the user has to initiate the same one-click process as users funded by us (establish the trustline to try, set their home domain to a possible profile page and send any try that was claimed previously from the intermediate account).
more than 1,000 users created/funded their accounts this way.
example of a user creating/funding the stellar account after several claims that went to int:
[gabnrkrzwt3zgiznqmuxmgnv5zcwqfwboxppdxo7jpge5kyhdjoa5aot](https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/account/gabnrkrzwt3zgiznqmuxmgnv5zcwqfwboxppdxo7jpge5kyhdjoa5aot)
the reason for the intermediate account is to be fully transparent about the try issued, even for unfunded accounts. in case of minepi, initiativeq and ecoinofficial, nobody knows the actual supply since everything is hidden in a database.
to be able to fund more accounts of active users, we observe the time since a users last claim. one possibility is to transfer try of inactive accounts to the int-account while keeping a record of the try balance and merge these accounts back into the fund-account to fund more active users. this process is already functional and has been done after our internal tests to reclaim try and xlm from test-accounts. as soon as the user becomes active again, given there is xlm in the fund-account, the user can receive his try back in his own account or keep claiming try with the unfunded option.
a better solution for this would be the [sdf user acquisition fund](https://www.stellar.org/foundation/mandate#user-acquisition) that was created for these type of cases similar to vibrant that receives 5.5 xlm to fund and create trustlines for new accounts. further, we will be able to promote anchors and create trustlines to assets of interest to the user if the issuer provides the xlm needed for the trustline without the risk of fakeaccounts withdrawing the provided 0.5 xlm and reclaiming after a set time if the user never actively engaged with the asset.
**what platforms does the project support?**
we are starting with a web based application to be accessible from any device. mobile specific apps for ios and android will be developed as the project grows.
**transaction spam prevention**
considering the potential growth of trybal, we are already set from the start to prevent transaction spam. we first collect all claims, rewards, bonuses and referral earnings of a user since his last claim to send it in one operation. then we are batching up to 100 operations/claims of different users into one transaction, similar to how the lumenaut pool did this when still operating. operations like account creation, trustline setup and transfer of previously existing funds are also batched into one transaction.
we hope that our approach serves as an inspiration for existing and future projects to reduce single operation transaction spam where possible.
**what are the funds used for if you win in the scf?**
funds will be used to finance development, infrastructure and marketing.
**growth in numbers:**
after initial marketing for the beta test, we stopped any marketing efforts almost immediately because of the overwhelming registration feedback.
we are tracking multi-account and bot-registrations that started on day 3 and were able to track most of the bot registrations back to only two accounts which made up 20,000 in total. we do have the solution to prevent or at least drastically limit fake-account registrations. this is under development right now and will be deployed with other major changes at the end of the beta test.
registrations: 64,000+
genuine registrations: 40,000+
confirmations: 59,000+
try operations: 60,000+
trustlines: 11,000+

2521d9ff753608bfee2d0900af6c123b | hi all, thanks for the feedback first round. i'm hopping in to briefly drop some overview guidelines (so people can start submitting proposals). we'll do a more official post asap and update this one accordingly. below should be the basic gist though. (i will be out over the next few weeks for personal reasons - but that should not delay us getting started for the next round.) submissions will open likely today or tomorrow for this round!
### **timeline:**
this round began july 12 and will run until october 12. nomination voting will begin on september 30 and final voting will take place the second week of october.
the first two months of scf round 2 will be focused strictly on discussion. i will periodically be sharing all of the new proposals on the community blog
### **proposals**
all proposals should be submitted as a new thread to galactictalk.org under the scf category. proposals can be for applications, tools, content (such as tutorials, books, and videos), or events. do not submit strictly proof-of-concept proposals. submissions must have a live element and be available somewhere that people can use/review them.
proposals should contain:
**project title:** the name of your project. please adhere to the stellar brand policy.
**summary:** a simple sentence summary of your project.
**goals:** what your project plans to accomplish broken down by objectives.
**timeline:** how and when you will accomplish your goals.
**description:** the description should answer questions like “what does your project enable users to do,” “why is your project valuable for stellar,” and “how does your project utilize stellar.” it should also cover what platforms the project supports (ex; windows, chrome, etc.) and relevant documentation. this section should be very detailed.
**link:** links to your application, code repository, supporting materials, and/or home site. if you are submitting a proposal for content pieces (like walkthroughs), please provide links to the content pieces.
**anything else:** any additional information you think the community should know about your project!
after submitting a proposal, it’s important to stay active and answer any questions the community may have about your project.
### **voting**
voting will take place in two rounds. a nomination round and award round.
to prevent people from trying to game the system - details on the nomination vote and final vote will be shared in september. until then, please participate in discussion.
### awards:
the stellar community fund is being allotted 12,000,000 lumens for the year. each round will award 3,000,000 lumens. winners will be awarded proportionally out of this pool based on final vote percentages.
there will be 8 winners for round 2.
### eligibility and legal
please only submit one proposal per person/organization per round. winning entries will not be eligible for future rounds. all proposals must have some proof-of-use of the stellar protocol or the benefit to the stellar ecosystem. we recommend all proposals be completed in english. proposals must have a functional element (no purely conceptual proposals) and be accessible in the united states.
unfortunately, if you’re a national or resident of cuba, iran, north korea, syria, sudan, or crimea, regulations prevent us from sending you any lumens. additionally, we cannot send lumens to residents of the us states of alabama, new york, georgia, connecticut, new mexico, hawaii, vermont, and washington.
sdf intends to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. in accordance to us law, all winners will be required to submit kyc documentation and fill out the relevant tax form. failure to do so will result in your rewards being forfeit. these tax forms will be used for accounting and reporting purposes so please be aware of your countries applicable laws regarding tax-filing. lumens will be reported at closing price on the day they are sent to you.
if you intend to utilize the stellar logo in your project, it must follow the brand policy. lack of adherence to these standards may result in disqualification. use of the words “official” in regards to or ambiguity of connection with the stellar development foundation may result in disqualification. avoid using stellar in your project name since it could be confusing for the community.
engaging in vote manipulation will cause your proposal to be disqualified. this includes botspam, fake/sock puppet accounts, and brigading.
### manipulation and disqualification
manipulation will not be tolerated. considered manipulation this round:
1. mass dming people to vote for your project (on any platform).
2. vote trading.
3. spamming stellar channels for votes (reddit, gt, keybase, etc). spamming includes posting multiple times a day about your proposal. for the sake of sanity and well-being - each project is allowed to create a proposal thread once on reddit (/r/stellar).
4. paying for bounties to artificially inflate exposure.
5. creating fake accounts to brigade, downvote, upvote, or maliciously target other products
6. malicious behavior - trying to frame other people, manipulating logs, "doxing/doxxing (pick your preferred nomenclature) participants.
7. not adhering to the code of conduct!
8. stealing proposals.
9. resubmitting winning projects with barely changed language.
10. repeatedly trying to disqualify other projects without evidence.
11. bullying participants. constructive criticism is okay - being a jerk isn't.
12. bullying community members providing honest feedback. debate is okay - being a jerk isn't.

remember, round 3 we are hoping to move to a new format and voting application.
edit: i've modified the timeline to be an actual 3 months in order to give participants a bit more time to submit proposals and discussion

95350c70ca9dba2867b7efdaa1183471 | hey,
just in last couple of days came up with this idea, and decided to mention it here too.
i published npm package:
<https://www.npmjs.com/package/stellar-qr>
to simplify generation of stellar qr codes while there is still no standard for that.
problem:
- no standard for stellar payment links / qr codes generation
- many stellar services ask for private key of a user, sooner or later it may lead to disaster, practice must be eradicated.
i'm aware of 3 wallets capable of scanning qr codes (if there are more please let me know in comments):
- centaurus expects stellar account in qr code, which is useful in limited number of cases and not enough for generic payments with memo and asset info
- stargazer expects json structure, containing account, amount, memo and asset info (it's alright, but must be extended to support more operations and not as easy to be used as payment link)
- papayabot implements stargazer format
there's been a discussion previously to come up with more generic format and be able to register link handlers, etc. i'm currently experimenting with it in my other project with codename stellarkey.
so my solution to all above is for everyone to use one shared lib to show user a payment widget, where he can choose his wallet and get qr code generated for his wallet. this is temporary solution, which will allow the community to experiment with different formats and later easily update all merchants to use single format adopted by wallets.
during the next week i'll integrate it into couple of my other projects to showcase how it works and publish here some screenshots.

### free voting platform
[freevoting](https://blueorion.cc/votehome) - voting service secured on the stellar blockchain to enable independent, immutable and verifiable elections.
### category
applications
### goals
we want to provide a full working voting platform which can be used in all countries, the objectives are:
1) creation and administration of election settings
2) voters can participate without owning a crypto account
3) authentication based on email and two-factor-authentication (mobile, authcode, ...)
4) automated creation of public election documents secured by hash in the stellar blockchain
5) automated creation of personal voting documents which prove the election participation
6) vote submission from client browser (js) to provide anonymity.
7) creation of election token to enable easy to understand transparency on voting results.
### description
due to the covid-19 situation i see a need of "easy to use" election platforms. with our solution every organization can vote online without the need of meeting in person. i also got inspired by the last scf submission of stellot.com and discussed the blind signature approach with the submitter to enable full anonymity.
#### why is the voting platform valuable for stellar?
the stellar network will be exposed to a wider community which has not been in touch with crypto or stellar yet. it also will show and prove the unique features of stellar. only with fast transaction times, it is possible to create a responsive blockchain voting solution.
this application will enable a free and independent voting solution for all countries with instable government structures . in this sense we see our platform as another solution to enable democratic structures in remote areas. similar to the stellar projects which enable free banking services.
#### technical solution
to achive the main requirements we created a process which is based on the following aspects:
1) election token: for each election we create a unique stellar token which is used for all voting activites of this election.
2) each voter has one vote: we use the specific stellar infrastructure of channel accounts and sequence number
to ensure that one user only can vote one time by javascript within the browser.
3) transparence: the vote submission will be done directly via javascript from the voters browser. the
transaction id of the vote entry will be shown immediatly to the voter. this means the vote goes directly from voter (browser) to the network. the server can not interferre into the submission process.
4) proof of documents: there are two election documents:
a) the election setup pdf with all voting details and voter emails and
b) the election results pdf.
the hash of both documents is written into the stellar blockchain to prove all election details for later reference.
5) election audit: we also plan to have a third party to do an audit on the election process. if the election went
fine, a thrird party can approve that the election was done according to the rules.

### summary:
[freevoting](https://blueorion.cc/votehome) - voting service secured on the stellar blockchain to enable independent, immutable and verifiable elections.
### category:
applications
### goals:
we want to provide a full working voting platform which can be used in all countries, the objectives are:
1) creation and administration of election settings
2) voters can participate without owning a crypto account
3) authentication based on email and two-factor-authentication (mobile, authcode, ...)
4) automated creation of public election documents secured by hash in the stellar blockchain
5) automated creation of personal voting documents which prove the election participation
6) vote submission from client browser (js) to provide anonymity.
7) creation of election token to enable easy to understand transparency on voting results.
### description:
due to the covid-19 situation i see a need of "easy to use" election platforms. with our solution every organization can vote online without the need of meeting in person. i also got inspired by the last scf submission of stellot.com and discussed the blind signature approach with the submitter to enable full anonymity.
#### why is the voting platform valuable for stellar?
the stellar network will be exposed to a wider community which has not been in touch with crypto or stellar yet. it also will show and prove the unique features of stellar. only with fast transaction times, it is possible to create a responsive blockchain voting solution.
this application will enable a free and independent voting solution for all countries with instable government structures . in this sense we see our platform as another solution to enable democratic structures in remote areas. similar to the stellar projects which enable free banking services.
#### technical solution
to achive the main requirements we created a process which is based on the following aspects:
1) election token: for each election we create a unique stellar token which is used for all voting activites of this election.
2) each voter has one vote: we use the specific stellar infrastructure of channel accounts and sequence number
to ensure that one user only can vote one time by javascript within the browser.
3) transparence: the vote submission will be done directly via javascript from the voters browser. the
transaction id of the vote entry will be shown immediatly to the voter. this means the vote goes directly from voter (browser) to the network. the server can not interferre into the submission process.
4) proof of documents: there are two election documents:
a) the election setup pdf with all voting details and voter emails and
b) the election results pdf.
the hash of both documents is written into the stellar blockchain to prove all election details for later reference.
5) election audit: we also plan to have a third party to do an audit on the election process. if the election went
fine, a thrird party can approve that the election was done according to the rules.
#### timeline
* q1 2020 create authentication and communication workflow ✓
* q1 2020 setup website with responsive user interface ✓

"text": "yep, the previous problem was caused by maildrop.cc. who would know? i used that service in the past and it worked without any problems. continued testing and here are some notes:\n\n\n* the subject of the email i received states \"admin init - 238\". it would be great to write something more intuitive.\n* i thought that once the creator clicks the activation link, all users specified in the invites field will automatically receive email invitations with the survey links (at least that how it works in traditional online survey systems). but you actually send the poll invitation link that has to be sent directly to the respondent by the survey initiator. when i click the link the system asks for the authentication. i had to copy-paste the respondent address email again, and only then the respondent receives the invitation email. if you worried that people will use your system for spamming, ask for the survey creation fee (like, 100xlm) to prevent potential bad actors from exploiting it.\n* when i finally got to the next step, the website returned the following error:\n\n```\nfatal error: uncaught argumentcounterror:\ntoo few arguments to function p_election_voter_options(), 2 passed in /var/www/blueorion.cc/public_html/index_election.php on line 88 and exactly 3 expected in /var/www/blueorion.cc/php/p_election.php:354\nstack trace:\n#0 /var/www/blueorion.cc/public_html/index_election.php(88): p_election_voter_options(array, '<!doctype html>...')\n#1 {main} thrown in /var/www/blueorion.cc/php/p_election.php on line 354\n```\n\n(the link itself: <https://blueorion.cc/elvote-238-bio1qj2e9tdn5s3lyehky7qn6ml2sw9nzumac6p8rei4v7yupo0vgfpjkatbmtds>)\n\n\nalso, i checked the screenshot and the link on the block explorer. the voting progress and results are recorded using custom token, that's very cool! it potentially allows using poll results in smart contracts logic. this a core building block for daos and governance. at the moment i don't fully understand where those tokens lend in the end, so looking forward to continue testing once you fix the issue with the server.\n\n\none more suggestion regarding results. i assume that you write aggregated results in a file upon survey competition and save them on your server. this is not really decentralized or durable, since your server can go offline or switch to some other protocol in the future. how about query and show all results on the fly when a user visits the survey info page? everything is stored on the ledger, so you can fetch all transactions and aggregate results using js on the client side. this sounds like a more \"trustless approach\"; the results calculation logic doesn't depend on your backend in this case.\n\n\nre: open voting – you can list all on-going surveys on the website, but invite users into the poll by sending survey tokens to their accounts when they click a \"participate\" button. alternatively, you can also check additional preconditions before sending tokens and allow only specific users based on the survey participation criteria (e.g. only accounts older than one year, or accounts with at least 100 eurt, or only accounts holding reddit photon tokens).\n\n",

"text": "[orbitlens](https://galactictalk.org/d/2420/17) thanks again for testing. based on your last feedback, i started working on an open voting version. i still think open elections or surveys might be not the main focus, but it would be good to draw more attention to the platform, as it would be very easy to provide a participation link (without knowing the email). also a participation button towards ongoing surveys on the website is a great idea.\n\n\nhere is my feedback on your last entry:\n\n\n**implemented / solved**\n\n\n* website error: is fixed now (function call was not updated on the prod-server) note: as you posted the authenticated link above anybody can vote using this link. after one time voting the link will be not valid any more.\n\n\n**in discussion**\n\n\n* email subject: \"admin init - 238\": yes true its very technical, as for the prototype i keep it simple, but definitely can be improved\n* automatically receive email invitations: as you write currently the admin needs to send the invitation email to the voters by himself. this has the advantage that the admin can define the email text by himself. i propably will provide the option, if a) the admin wants to send the email by himself or b) the emails will be sent automatically (this is necessary anyway, if we have a higher number of voters)\n* prevent spamming: yes i installed that email verification on election creation to avoid spamming. to ask for a fee could be an option. as for now, giving easy access to test is important and i want to keep it free of fees.\n* decentralized check on results: \n\n a) as implemented: all votes are written into the blockchain and therefore the results can be reproduced any time without the server, just by counting the votes/memos. \n\n b) as implemented: the results pdf is hashed and also written into the blockchain, so if you store the pdf you can prove the results anytime later on without relying on the server \n\n c) currently we check the entries on the blockchain and store it temporary to have a fast access. as you write there also could be a script which creates the voting results on the fly. then this would be a open source script anybody can execute to get the results on a certain election. and our platform is not needed at all. did you mean that? maybe that script could be also provided by third parties/blockexplorer?\n* \"participate\" button: great idea, also regarding the additional preconditions\n",

**organization:** [cosmic.plus](https://cosmic.plus)
summary
-------
pen of the week is a code snippets series that teaches, each week, how to implement a stellar-related feature in javascript.
description
-----------
pens of the week use [codepen](https://codepen.io) to host interactive code snippets crafted to maximize their pedagogic impact.
the end-goal is to provide a wide collection of examples that support developers in coding their applications; and to trigger community discussions around the showcased features.
while it was initially intended as a way to exemplify cosmic.plus libraries, it is gradually growing in scope to teach about various independent libraries & standard features as well.
#### why?
documentation, along with open-source libraries, is fundamental for a developer ecosystem to thrive.
if a library makes developers win about 50 hours of work, and 200 persons are using it, then it is 10,000 hours of development time that can be invested into something else. and that's about $500,000 saved.
that's how powerful open-source development can be for crypto communities. and for this to work, good documentation & howtos are required.
#### published so far

#### making the best of it
you can take full advantage of those pens pedagogic value by going through those steps:
1. `read the description & play with the interactive content.`
2. `read the keypoints`, take time to fully grasp the provided information.
3. `play with the code`, and see if you can create something on your own.
4. `look at the documentation` if some question is buzzing your mind.
5. `look at the challenges`, and see if you can solve one.
6. `fire a discussion` on galactictalk if you have anything to ask or to say.
**it is important that you challenge your creativity & your ability to make sense of the code on your own**. besides being important programmer skills, those are good ways to improve your understanding & memorization.
#### challenges
**each pen of the week contains two challenges**. you can solve the easy one using the information provided by the pen, but you'll need to dig in the linked documentation to solve the hard one.
**challenges are first of all a way to learn by doing.** the first to share the solution of a challenge can also claim a reward in gils.
#### how to claim the reward
1. fork a pen.
2. find an *elegant* solution for one of the challenges.
3. open a trustline to [gils:gils*cosmic.plus](https://cosmic.link/?changetrust&network=public&asset=gils:gils*cosmic.plus).
4. post your solution in the galactictalk thread linked from the pen, as well as your public key.
the easy challenge is worth `1000 gils`, and the hard one `3000 gils`.
#### about gils
**gils are exclusively minted for pen of the week challenges** (issued by gils*cosmic.plus). for now, gils have no intrinsic value and should be kept safely in your wallet.
at a later time, cosmic.plus will release a service that makes use of them - giving them a market value that you'll be able to claim for yourself.
note that gils are not expected to hype or to become a speculation vehicle of any sort, but to be a pleasant reward for having written a neat piece of code.
goals
-----
[x] release cdn.cosmic.plus to link versioned web libraries.
[x] create a custom codepen profile for cosmic.plus.
[x] come up with a nice format.
[x] figure out a release process.
[...] release 100 pens of the week over 2 years.
[...] exemplify cosmic.plus libraries.
[ ] exemplify seps: 01, 05, 06, 07, 10.
[ ] exemplify stellar libraries: stellar-wallet, kelp, ...
[ ] exemplify ecosystem libraries: stellar-guard, stellar-vanity-address, pubkey avatars, ...
[ ] exemplify security features: content-security-policy, tweetnacl secret boxes, ...
about the prize
---------------
#### how the funds will be spent?
part of the funds will be set aside to finance my work on the series for the next two years. the remaining funds will help to finance the ongoing development on [cosmic.plus libraries](https://cosmic.plus).
#### what if it doesn't get a prize?
i enjoy making those pens. as developers, we're often overwhelmed by many tasks, so taking time to fully search how much a given problem can be simplified is quite refreshing.
i'll continue this series no matter what. i probably won't enlist it again to scf, as i'm more interested into presenting software; but scf opened the possibility to do something new and i wanted to play the game, at least for once.
feedback
--------
the series is new and still need some traction. please come by & show us your skills!
the format i use for those pens is entirely new, so i'm interested in your comments about it.
i'm also interested in which libraries you would like to see showcased in this series. let me know if you have any suggestion.
thank you for reading 🙂

**project title**: stellar tip
**summary**: stellar tipping for content creators and developers
**hacknyu winner (devpost: <https://devpost.com/software/stellar-tip>)**
**fully working end to end demo**: <https://youtu.be/nlblfeo7jxo>
**category**: applications, tools, infrastructure
**goals**: goals after we receive funding:
add more security to the backend endpoints and databases
support more creative platforms, such as code pen, stack overflow
escrow system so users can tip creators that aren’t’ currently accepting stellar (like brave)
keybase integration
we would use part of the funding to market stellar tip to popular creators to reach out to a wider audience and provide exposure to the stellar network
ideally, we would also collaborate with projects within the stellar ecosystem. this would help kickstart the user base of stellar tip
**timeline**:
* over the next month: develop a production ready app and have the extension available on different browser extension stores. have a tighter integration with content websites, and provide an escrow service so that users can tip those without stellar accounts (like brave). incorporate community feedback.
* over the next month: develop a better brand (probably changing the name). incorporate community feedback.
* after one month: begin bringing users onto the platform by a) tipping creators and b) encouraging creators to support and advertise stellar tip as a way to donate. in this stage, funding from the scf would be particularly helpful with hosting costs + as capital to fund these tips (where the money would go to content creators, many in the stellar community). hopefully this proves the utility of our extension and allows us to battletest the app with actual users.
* after 1.5 months: promote the extension/service through social media channels
* after 1.5 months: pursue business development opportunities with content creators to incorporate stellar tip
* after 2 months: continue improving and refining the product based on user feedback
* after 2 months: consider new integrations and features such as twitch splash notifications, a leaderboard, rewards, etc.
**description**:
stellar tip is a chrome extension that enables users to tip both **crypto and fiat currency** to content creators and developers on platforms like **youtube, twitch, and github**. utilizing **stellar's powerful decentralized platform**, stellar tip enables users to **instantly send transactions** to their favorite creators/developers **without being limited to currency or fees**.
on these supported platforms, creators and developers will simply specify their stellar public key in their profile. for these people, stellar tip generates a custom tip button that fits the design of each respective platform on each of their pages. when a user clicks the tip button, a popup will appear, prompting the user with additional options such as asset selection and a sender alias name. furthermore, stellar tip enables users to view their previous tips on the **stellar blockchain** with links redirecting to the content that they tipped for.
creators and developers can also download the stellar tip chrome extension to view the tips made to them through the stellar tip service.
in the backend of our service, we utilize stellar's sdk to query previous transactions for a user on the **stellar blockchain** and generate a uri following the **sep 7 protocol** to open the user's favorite stellar wallet with the transaction information preloaded. at the same time, we store additional metadata about the content creator's information on our own servers. this way, users can look back into their transaction history in the chrome extension and see the specific creator/developer's name, the platform, and an embedded link to look back on their content.
how we built it
---------------
to build the chrome extension, we used **google chrome extension sdk, html, js, css, and jquery** to build the custom tip buttons, popups, and transaction history window.
to embed our ui/ux and retrieve the creator/developer's public stellar key in the various platforms, we implemented **web scrapers** for youtube, twitch, and github. we also used **google cloud's youtube api** to easily retrieve the public stellar key from youtuber's profiles.
our backend technologies consisted of **mongodb, node.js, express.js, and stellar sdk**. we integrated our own **caching mechanism** to reduce load and improve speed of retrieving metadata of the creator/developer that the user was tipping.
we integrated **stellar's sdk and uri sdk** to generate the transaction operations to be processed in the stellar network and the corresponding **sep 7 uri**. furthermore, we used stellar's sdk to retrieve a user's previous transactions on the stellar blockchain. in order to store additional metadata such as the creator/developer's names and url to their page, we generate a unique id for each transaction and store them on the blockchain in the memo field. this enables us to retrieve additional information that we store in our mongodb database to provide a smooth ui/ux for user's looking back on their transaction histories.
how we help stellar
-------------------
by targeting a wide range of creative and open source platforms, we provide a lot of new exposure to stellar and the community. hopefully, this will help bring in new users to not only stellar tip, but also the stellar network. stellar tip will continue to support more and more platforms. as a result, the stellar network will reach more users across a variety of platforms. once those initial seeds of users are planted in each platform, awareness of stellar tip will grow, and ideally, the stellar network will grow with it.

try it out:
-----------
you can install the extension here: <https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stellar-tip/nofpjgocmncmlacjfnniilnckjbhmgdh>
currently it is chrome only and is on the live stellar network. i wish we could offer a testnet version, but there doesn't seem to be any wallets that have testnet and sep7 support. there are a lot of things that we are actively polishing so getting started might be unclear. i think the main thing that is super unclear is the textbox when you open the extension should be filled with you stellar public address that you will be using for tipping (this is to view tipping history, you can still tip without filling this in).
you can only tip users that have a stellar address in their profile bio (we're hoping to change this in the future by adding an escrow service, see our proposal). here are some example links with people that have tipping enabled to look at:

c7206448ad9b419987ce81f458d4a6a7 | introduction
------------
first of all i need to say that i didn't do this because of the sbc or for get any bounty, in fact i started making some pull requests before this sbc was announced.
1) added data object to the accountresponse
-------------------------------------------
pull request: <https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pull/23>
the data object was missing from the accountresponse and it prevented to use it in the sdk (<https://www.stellar.org/developers/guides/concepts/list-of-operations.html#manage-data>)
2) documentation improvements
-----------------------------
issue: <https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/issues/40>
pull requests: <https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pulls?utf8=%e2%9c%93&q=is%3apr+is%3aclosed+author%3akirbyrawr+docs>
basically the owner of the repo put an issue and i got interested since i wanted to learn how to do it so this is what i did.
1) setup docfx generation tool properly for fix the github url links.
2) forked a template and modified it for make it look better. (<https://github.com/mathewsachin/docfx-tmpl>)
3) improved the generation of the documents by doing an assistant in shell script for easily management of the documentation and uploading with pull requests support.
4) created specific branch for the documentation in the same project called gh-pages.
you can find the website here: <https://elucidsoft.github.io/dotnet-stellar-sdk/api/index.html>
**before**

**after**
**assistant**

3) sdk examples
---------------
<https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pull/58>
basically i started doing some examples (will do more in the future) of how to use the sdk.
i created a new tab in the documentation website and i uploaded them there.
it's a first pass so it can contain some spelling errors and other issues.
here is an example:
<https://elucidsoft.github.io/dotnet-stellar-sdk/examples/send_native_assets.html>

non submitted but important contributions
-----------------------------------------
* fixed bug when exporting a transaction to xdr
[#63](https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pull/63)
* port from java sdk transaction.fromxdr method.
[#68](https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pull/68)[#71](https://github.com/elucidsoft/dotnet-stellar-sdk/pull/71)
* new examples
conclusion
----------
i hope i can keep doing contributions to this sdk since i like it and it helps me improve as well.
in fact i learned a lot by working with stellar and i like it.
cheers

ee78f697fa7c33f7fa1bc9c7c4473a23 | hi guys.
```
i'm building elements to create an ico using stellar, but the public
that my project can achieve is not very aware of this ecosystem
blockchain. in this way, i’m writing simples, white paper and
possible objective, to also serve these people who have little knowledge
of this universe. given this my doubt is which is the simplest wallet
and safe that i can indicate. is the trust wallet a good indication?
because the participant who does not have xlm (example here in brazil) will have to, first
buy the lumens (xlm) with brl (brazilian currency) to pay the
token that i will create at stellar, in this project i will only receive xlm
in this project i will not create a wallet
```
thanks,
adélio

80ba650c1a18a650180eb0d0c5f26185 | hello,
we started working on a protocol / standard / software to enable fiat tokenization by trusted anchors.
to be clear trusted anchors are regulated entities that everyone can trust that at any point in time they can redeem their tokens.
the idea behind the project is to have one virtual currency like virtual eur being issued by any anchor that respects the standard and uses the open source software that we provide.
we will try to build it from bottom-up, from small regulated entities in europe like payment institutions and electronic money institutions and grow up towards the banks.
as an example: a small regulated payment institution (even a regulated crypto exchange lile bitstamp would qualify) would deploy our software and will be able to issue virtual eur. basically the anchor (in this example bitstamp) will enable its users to issue veur while they keep the eur in escrow, visible to public (also insured by the protocol and software). when a new anchor wants to adhere the the protocol it will install the software and it's users will be able to issue the same kind of veur (fungible).
the goals of the protocol / software are:
* to create a democratic federation of anchors that can all issue same tokenized currency
* no private entity like theter will have total dominance and control over such a token
* total transparency of the monetary base
* total transparency of the protocol and governance
we will release the specifications of the protocol for public consultations with the stellar community, and we hope to have feedback.
we also hope if stellar community will support our idea that also stellar foundation would like to get involved since we believe that if we pull this off and make it very easy for anchors to issue virtual eur this will help the whole stellar project to scale very fast and to get a lot of traction.
thank you !
ps: we are doing this because we need this software because we will be a regulated anchor to issue veur but we think making this part of the software free and open and adding the possibility to create a federation will help adoption and will benefit us all. even if some of our competitors will benefit from this open/free software if this will spark mass adoption we will be better of with a small slice from a much bigger cake.

11145bf406acf3e3ef9c8c38b99d01d5 | currently cryptocurrencies are not used for things beyond investment, few businesses accept them. in part this is due to the lack of platforms for non-expert users, leading to fewer businesses that accept these types of payments. not counting the problem that merchants have to accept such volatile currencies such as bitcoin.
the existing platforms are not intuitive to use and the current payment gateways make the user pay high fees of each blockchain making payments of less than $ 5- $ 10 unprofitable. for example, paying directly with ethereum costs around $ 4 in network fees and a 5 min wait.
we believe that platforms for all types of users is something that is not abundant in any part of the world. in the united states there are beginning to be platforms that implement payment gateways, in europe they are almost non-existent.
we want to create a platform that in addition to allowing businesses to accept cryptocurrencies, without prior knowledge, exchanging the payment instantly to stable currencies or fiat, also allows to handle, exchange and buy cryptocurrencies in an intuitive way for any type of user.
we seek to solve this by creating an intuitive interface and allowing a lot of flexibility, for example, allowing the user to decide if they want to manage their own passwords or that we safeguard them. using stellar we can allow instant payments and with a minimum cost, making all types of payments for all types of users possible.

**timeline**
* wolfbridge: 1 mar 2021
* wolfwallet: 1 jul 2021
* wolfpay: 1 nov 2021
* wolfweb: 1 feb 2022
**wolfbridge**
we will create anchors with which you will not only be able to introduce currencies but will also allow more interoperability allowing calls to smart contracts of other blockchains directly from stellar.
the list of accepted blockhains will increase over time but the first will be bitcoin, ethereum, cardano, polkadot, monero, eos, tron, tezos. of the blockchains like ethereum we will allow the vast majority of tokens (dai, maker, aave, uniswap, tether, ...) since we will allow you to specify the address of the contract by automatically creating an anchor.
you can interact directly with a smart contract or with functions of each blockchain. for example, you will be able to interact directly with compound or aave contracts from stellar making the transaction cheaper since the cryptos will go from stellar to the contract without going through a third wallet, our bridge will detect if you have received another token (ceth in the case of compound) and will send it back to stellar.
another advantage is the way to receive crypto. while most anchors and platforms create a wallet for each user, which increases the costs of having to pay a second transaction (your wallet -> your address in the anchor -> central anchor account) we will give you several options. the first is the aforementioned address to send your cryptos to, the second is the possibility of specifying a memo in all the blockchains that allow it and the third by means of a digital signature with each wallet, making it possible to send cryptos directly to the wallet of our anchor from any wallet, (metamask, atomic, etc)
**fee schedule**
**deposit**
method 1 (getting a custom address to send criptos)
* blockchain fee + 0,05%
method 2 (memo code)
* 0,05%
method 3 (wallet signing)
* 0,05%
withdraw
* blockchain fee + 0,1%
calling a contract
* blockchain fee + 0,15%
**wolfwallet**
we will create a wallet that allows you to freely manage your cryptos, in addition to being designed to obtain maximum interoperability, you will have your cryptocurrencies in an organized way, for example, if you have bitcoin and wbtc they will appear together and you will be able to see it in detail in the bitcoin section. in the wallet there will be a tool that will allow you to send crypto from one blockchain to another very easily, either using existing bridges, as in the case of wbtc or using wolfbridge.
this wallet will be in the form of a mobile and desktop app, we synchronize all the data (accepted currencies, wallet names, etc.) through ipfs with orbitdb so that you do not have to configure the wallet every time you add a device.
**wolfpay**
this will be the tool that gives cryptocurrencies that utility we are looking for.
we will create a payment gateway that will allow you to pay with your cryptocurrencies in ecommerce and allow them to automatically receive the local currency, thus attracting both a crypto audience, and stores that only want to have one more payment channel.
thanks to using stellar we will be able to allow micropayments making it profitable to pay less than € 5, (current gateways do not allow it and you can pay more than € 3 in blockchain commissions, in addition to a wait of more than 5 min in the case of ethereum ).
we guarantee very high security using high security standards and using serverless technologies. in addition to offering very high speed and scalability.
**wolfchain**
this is the final platform. we will create a tool, both web and app, that allows you to access all services (wolfbridge, wolfwallet, wolfpay) but without the need to have extensive knowledge of the world of cryptocurrencies, offering a very intuitive interface , key custody, without handling tokens or assets. allowing both advanced users and new users to manage their crypto more easily without losing the wide range of options we offer.
wolfchain will have a business section, where an ecommerce or store will be able to manage the payments made in their store, having access to detailed statistics and special data management and export options.
about us
since september 2020 we have been incubated in emprenbit, located in the palma de mallorca technology park called parc bit. in this incubator, in addition to having a place where we can work, we enjoy various advantages such as professional help in the field of starting and organizing our company and also talks from different entrepreneurs who have managed to succeed in different areas.
the project of wolfchain has already received an award for young entrepreneurs organized by carnet jove and the government of the balearic islands.

our plans for 2018-2019:
- multicurrency payments
- implementation of more detailed statistics of market activity of tokens
- implementation of the creation and implementation of custom ico on the platform. this will include the full cycle of creating and conducting ico - from the release of real block-tokens, and sell them to project investors.
- the mechanism of tokenization of any types of assets will be greatly improved. to release new tokens in scopuly it will be possible to set a lot of useful parameters.
- the token trading system will be improved. this will allow holders of different tokens directly from their balance to trade tokens directly: any token can be exchanged for any other directly without reference to the underlying asset xlm.
- also, we are actively working on improving the system of multi-signatures on purses (adding remote signers)
- development of desktop clients for macos, windows, linux
please, we need your help!
we want to make sure that we are working on what supports the stellar community, and this is what people really want. we like your feedback, ideas, perspectives and suggestions about what we should focus on.

dbc49f0806f460badf5b38e20868a897 | [astral](https://astralwallet.io) is a web wallet for stellar. we built astral because we wanted strong security with the added convenience of not having to store secret keys.
we believe astral fills a strong need in the cryptocurrency ecosystem; security and efficiency in a user-friendly package. by using stellar as the currency from which we built astral, we’re able to capture this trifecta.

17eefc429aef4868133efc681b7574bc | hi fellow stellar enthusiasts!
lumenette is now in **beta**. download now for ios (via testflight) and android (via play store) by going to <https://www.lumenette.com/download> on your phone.
---
### beta code
enter once you open the app, when prompted: **moonwalk**
---
### summary / goals
* **yet another stellar wallet?** lumenette is different from other wallets because it helps you send lumen to any of your contacts (whether they have heard of stellar or not), without use of intermediate accounts. our server is used solely as a public key registry, and to validate phones / emails. this means lumenette is a standard wallet, where you don’t have a user account / password, and are in full control of your keys.
* **user friendly.** we built the app with new users in mind. we opted for an interface that is more familiar to apps like venmo / paypal than other crypto wallets. we added some playful animation to make the app enjoyable, and included as much information on stellar / crypto as we could throughout the app.
* **security.** we did everything we could to provide the richest experience while limiting the reliance on a centralized server. keys are generated on your device, and secret keys are never sent to us. we offer pin protection and touch id, to keep accounts safe. it’s our goal to provide the most secure mobile / hot wallet possible.
* **other notes on why we built.** [@ndreckshage](https://galactictalk.org/u/ndreckshage) and i really believe in stellar’s mission, and are excited to build a variety of tools on the platform. we wanted a wallet where we could easily send lumen to friends, to introduce them to stellar (and potentially crypto in general), to hopefully peak their interest in the technology.
* **future.** we have a lengthy backlog of items to improve this app and to help the stellar community. a few items we are currently working on: push notifications; mnemonic phrase key generation; background processing of pending transactions. we will also be open sourcing stellar react native (unless someone beats us to it).
* **app store.** our goal is to be approved by apple, and help stellar wallets get in the app store. we have already had dialogue with apple on this and are committed to it. until this happens, we will stay in public beta (again, our beta password is moonwalk).
* feel free to share the beta password with anyone, as well as post your feedback on how we can improve lumenette, either here, or by emailing us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

95fa88a8e7ddb21ada6f16a5db1d8c45 | hi everyone,
having followed stellar for a long time, i have decided to drastically change/develop my career path - on a personal level first. i am working as a project manager on the planing side of renewable energy projects. as i can see in my career how important it is to really understand the blockchain technology to come up with creative solutions in the energy sector in the future, i have decided to creating some private projects first using blockchain and apps/dapps.
i have programmed some arduino projects recently and learned visual c , about 8 years ago (hardly remembering much). also my background is really not programming but rather gis/geography. also i have never developed an app on my phone, i have never programmed java or any other program language, but there is some potential and i am willing to learn.
let's say i would like to build a personal app on my phone that turns on the electric charger of my vw/t4 bus once i make a sufficient payment on the stellar blockchain (or somthing like that) what literature/online material/software/app development tools/etc./websites would you recommend to get there on my own?
imagine you had no idea/no background in programming and you want somebody to give you all the necessary signposts of how to get this done. yea, that's me!
now what i am looking for is some helpful advice on literature/online material/software/app development tools/etc./websites and maybe also people to stay in contact with in keybase! who is out there? would love to hear back. many thanks!

hey! i'm alexis, a french it student and stellar holder since 2k14 8)
i've been working on blackwallet the last weeks/months, tried many things, started over again and again (dev routine 😆) but finally, today, i'm proud to be here, introducing the first, but not least version of blackwallet!
link
----
---
the project
-----------
blackwallet is a web stellar lumens wallet, it was built using javascript & stellar horizon. i like to describe it as an enhanced account viewer as it doesn't require users to create an account - all you need is a private key.
however the stellar's account viewer and blackwallet share no code at all, i built blackwallet from scratch.
my goal is to create an easy but powerful wallet with as many features as possible. the idea is that blackwallet could be used by new users for its simplicity while at the same time being used by the confirmed users for its advanced features.
that's ambitious i know. but i truly believe this can be achieved - at least, i'm doing my best to make it a better wallet everyday.
as i said, blackwallet is a web wallet, but can be used on any device that can execute javascript code - it can also be used as a web-app on ios (by simply enabling the mobile mode in the settings and adding blackwallet to the screenboard).
i'll post here what i'm working on, the changelogs and what may come in the future - feel free (and i'd love that you do so) to post some feedbacks, ideas, bug reports here, this would really help! many brains are better than one!

(perhaps i'll add a checkbox in the settings for that if people want it)\n\n\n\n> in recent txs the accountid is a link to stellarcahin.io but seems better to have it just open this \"inspect\" screen you made and have the \"inspect\" screen have a link to \"more info\" which is to stellarchain.io or steexp.com\n> \n> \n\n\ngood idea, had not thought about it! it's now working that way 😉 (added both stellarchain & steexp link)\n\n\n\n> the send form isn't doing path finding. for example you should be able to send xlm to <phone number>*coins.asia and have the receiver get php. checkout how stargazer is doing it.\n> \n> \n\n\nnot sure about that one, i checked stargazer and has not found a difference with blackwallet, perhaps i'm missing something? \n\ni think the difference is that stargazer is displaying the address before you click the send button - while blackwallet is displaying everything [once you clicked the send button](http://imgur.com/f6qxpst.png) (before sending, there is a confirmation window that shows up details like federated name, account id, amount, memo, message etc.)\n\n\ni've changed the \"send\" button's text to \"continue\"\n\n\n\n> it doesn't seem to support sending to payment addresses (things like bob*domain.com) ,at least it doesn't display the accountid it gets back or an error if you give it a bogus one.\n> \n> \n\n\nit works for valid federated addresses 🙂 \n\nregading bugus ones, you're right - i've noticed that federation lookup function in the stellar sdk wasn't returning an error when a lookup failed so the .catch() function was never called has it stopped working - i now use an ajax trick to handle bugus destinations 😉\n\n\nso now, trying to send to a invalid federated address will display an error: \"domain not found\"\n\n\n\n\n---\n\n\nchangelog\n\n\n\n> v0.1.6 changelog \n> \n> - fixed a bug with federated address lookup on non-federated domains (now display a: \"domain not found\" message) \n> \n> - removed the xrp from the charts list \n> \n> - clicking on a public address in the transaction history will now display more infos about that address in the inspect tool \n> \n> - some files minification to increase loading speed\n> \n> \n\n\n\n\n---\n\n\nworking on: \n\n- use a pin system for secret keys encryption\n\n\n",

76c8c229a6bef7c62f54c9d705ec0b20 | i believe an account need to be trusted for a custom asset (trustline).
so i am using a allowtrust operation to allow the trust:

i use account public key as the `trustor`, and sign the transaction with the asset issuer account.

82520721f5531e402e879cc82cd9cb5b | [**stellarexpertid**](https://id.stellar.expert/demo/) provides a safe and reliable way to use your stellar accounts without trusting anyone with your secret key. all sensitive data is encrypted with your password and securely stored in the browser.
key features
------------
* secure key management – your secret key is never exposed to third-party services.
* secure transaction signing – transactions are signed without exposing a secret key.
* [sep-0007](https://github.com/stellar/stellar-protocol/blob/master/ecosystem/sep-0007.md) compatible – can be used to handle "web+stellar" links.
* web apps single sign-on – login to third-party websites, just like with google or facebook oauth.
* two-factor authorization support – provides another level of protection for your accounts.
* digital identity – associate a nickname, email, or avatar with your account address (or leave it blank if you prefer to stay incognito).
* multi-account support – use multiple accounts and switch them when you need it.
* message signing tools – sign and verify arbitrary data with your private keys.
* inflation voting – vote for inflation pools with a single button click without worries for your funds' safety.
* federation support – make use of a human-friendly address for your account.
* works everywhere – the same account operates seamlessly via desktops, smartphones, and tablets.
intents
-------
there are 4 main groups of intents:
1. request transaction signing. the signer app prepares and signs a transaction which then can be returned to the initiator website or submitted directly to the network.
2. request specific action. either "transfer funds", "vote for inflation pool", or "establish a trustline". each action is effectively a simplified wrapper for the transaction signing request. no custom logic or even js sdk is required on the initiator side.
3. request information. the website may request a user's personal info (email, avatar) or stellar account public key.
4. request cryptographic signature of the arbitrary data. the website may request a crypto signature to verify a keypair ownership (authentication, secure messages exchange etc).
authorization flows
-------------------
the signer supports two authorizaton flows: an **implicit** flow and **callback** flow.
**implicit flow**
a popup window with request details is shown each time an initiator website requests the action.
1. a user invokes some action on the third-party website (a wallet, dex interface, inflation pool etc). let's say, he wants to create an offer.
2. the website prepares the requested transaction and it's xdr representation in base64 format.
3. the website initiates the intent (see intent list in the project description) using js module that provides an interface for all supported intents.
4. the interface module opens a new pop-up window pointing to `id.stellar.expert`. all intent parameters are serialized and transmitted in a form of get parameters. so the full url will look like `https://id.stellar.expert/confirm?intent=tx&network=testnet&xdr=aaaaalpzetf82...`.
5. signer application reads parameters from the url and asks the user for a confirmation.
6. the user chooses a keypair from the list of stored accounts (or adds a new one) and confirms the action.
7. the signer app signs the transaction the same way any other wallet do it.
8. the signed transaction is serialized into xdr as transactionenvelope and transmitted back to the opener site in base64 encoding via the built-in browser `postmessage` mechanism.
9. the third-party website receives a signed transaction envelope and may choose either to submit it to the network or store somewhere in case if the tx needs more signatures or if it has time bounds set.
intent confirmation dialog always contains extended request information, including intent description (like "sign transaction"), initiator website ("origin: example.com"), risk level ("high", "medium", or "low"), information about personal data disclosure (only for `personal_info` intent), and safety status ("safe" or "potentially unsafe"). intent-specific details allow a user to review the request before confirmation. for instance, a dialog with `sing_tx` intent displays full transaction information including all meaningful properties and the list of operations in a human-friendly format adapted for the ordinary users.
**callback flow**
the callback flow supports stellar [sep-0007](https://github.com/stellar/stellar-protocol/blob/master/ecosystem/sep-0007.md) link format.
instead of showing a popup authorization dialog, it redirects the browser to the signer page.
a signed transaction can be either submitted to the network or returned to the specified callback url via post request.
technical details
-----------------
the project consists of three modules:
* the **signer** website itself – provides a user-friendly interface for key management and operation intents.
* client **intent** module – js library that simplifies stellarexpertid integration and usage.
* server-side **vault** – a simple server that provides api for encrypted credentials storage and 2fa verification.
*(server-side vault storage option is temporarily disabled).*
the [intent](https://github.com/orbitlens/stellar-expert-id/tree/master/intent) library supports the following actions ("intents"):
* `signtransaction(xdr, options)` – requests transaction signing (returns signed transaction envelope, can be used for multi-sig).
* `pay(destination, amount, asset_code, asset_issuer, memo, memo_type, options)` – requests a payment.
* `trust(asset_code, asset_issuer, limit, options)` – requests inflation pool voting.
* `inflationvote(inflationdestination, options)` – requests inflation pool voting.
* `signmessage(msg)` – requests arbitrary data signing.
* `verifymessage(msg, signature)` – requests arbitrary data signature verification.
* `requestaddress()` – requests account public key (for basic web authentication).
* `authenticate()` – requests user identity verification (for sso login).
* `requestpersonalinfo()` – requests personal info access (avatar, nickname etc).
available transaction intent options:
* `network` – stellar account network identifier ("public", "testnet") or private network passphrase.
* `horizon` – the url of a stellar horizon server (for transactions only).
* `prepare` – if set, the signer will return a signed tx envelope instead of submitting it to the horizon server.
formal intent data contracts can be found [here](https://github.com/orbitlens/stellar-expert-id/blob/master/intent/src/intent-interface.js).
### "web+stellar" links
in order to set up this application as a signer for "web+stellar" links as described in [sep-0007](https://github.com/stellar/stellar-protocol/blob/master/ecosystem/sep-0007.md), you may either use [`navigator.registerprotocolhandler()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-us/docs/web/api/navigator/registerprotocolhandler) (works in chrome and firefox) or configure the protocol binding [manually](https://support.shotgunsoftware.com/hc/en-us/articles/219031308-launching-applications-using-custom-browser-protocols).
```
navigator.registerprotocolhandler('web+stellar',
'https://id.stellar.expert/confirm?encoded=%s',
'stellarexpertid signer')
```
*please note: it's a developer preview software version, do not store your real stellar account secret keys here.*
### secret key storage options
choose security options that suit you.
#### multi-login with two-factor authorization
allowing this feature increases security and simplify your account usage across all your devices and browsers. your secret key is encrypted with your password in the browser and securely stored on our servers. we do not have access to your account.
*account log-in and all subsequent actions are protected with 2fa totp authorization.*
this feature works with 2fa applications like [google authenticator](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.authenticator2), [free otp](https://freeotp.github.io/), or [authy](https://authy.com/download/).
#### browser-only storage with password protection
credentials are encrypted with your password and stored in the browser. nobody except you can obtain access to your account.
*account log-in and all subsequent actions require your password.*
#### paranoid mode
stellarexpert id never stores your credentials or any other info on our servers, nor in the browser. nevertheless, you still can sign transactions and use other features providing your secret key to confirm all actions.
*account log-in and all subsequent actions require your secret key.*
### next steps
once the interfaces and modules are stable and documented, i'm going to add support of other security-related applications, like ledger nano support, stellarguard by paul, cosmiclink by misterticot etc.
### liabilities and trust
originally this application was designed as a part of stellarexpert, but the more i think about it, the more i convince myself that it should be maintained and operated by the reliable public entity. why would you trust some random anonymous guy from the internet?
hence i decided to ask sdf to maintain and host the application. i'm ready to transfer the repositories, all explicit and implicit copyrights, claiming only as much as a reference in the readme/license repository file. the reasons behind this decision:
* safe development. all pull requests will be reviewed by sdf maintainers, and we all know that bartek is a top-notch security specialist.
* trusted infrastructure. the application will be deployed and administrated by guys who support core nodes and publicly available horizon.
* trusted entity. i think we all can agree that sdf is the most trusted entity across stellar network as it runs the crucial part of the network and holds the largest part of all available lumens.
if sdf itself runs the application under its own brand (say, "stellarid"), it will give green light to all developers and users. we all can be sure that guys from sdf won't modify sources to steal users' private keys and everyone will be able to participate in the process. as for me, i'll keep contributing to the project with pull-requests.
so here i'm asking for the opinion of stellar community. if you think that such an application will be useful, i will contact sdf with this matter.
* the project demo is available [here](https://id.stellar.expert/demo/).
* [source code](https://github.com/orbitlens/stellar-expert-id) on github.
* [issue tracker](https://github.com/orbitlens/stellar-expert-id/issues).
will be glad to hear any questions and feedback.

af3e4b5099116f8ba9ae180c036d2e6e | paywith.glass is a blockchain-based payments and remittance platform built on the stellar blockchain and currently supports remittance, online payments and pos in 29 currencies including 14 crypto currencies.
paywith.glass is an all-in-one **neo-bank** suite which runs both on the web and on mobile devices (mobile coming soon).
it provides:
-fast contactless pos transactions
-bill payment and online payments
-a super-simplified currency trading tool
-a secure federated multi-currency wallet (fiat+cryptocurrency support)
-anchor support for 29 currencies (including 14 crypto currencies)
-multi-currency cross-border remittance support
-merchant tools with a shopping cart
with paywith.glass, all currencies (fiat or crypto) are treated as equals and for the first time, it will be possible to use your crypto currencies, air miles, pre-paid mobile credit or rewards points to buy anything, anywhere as easily as you can with fiat currencies.
our platform also eliminates the lag/delays that come with using other blockchains for retail applications (eg bitcoin's dinosaur network) since regardless of the currency, crypto or fiat, all transactions are quickly, securely and reliably performed on stellar.org's blockchain.
it includes a super clean and easy to use wallet we call the glassvault which lets you store your funds on shelves that can switch their currencies in real-time with just a swipe.
with paywith.glass you can deposit your funds in whatever currency or currencies you have via bank transfer, paypal, debit/credit card, amazon pay and other gateways in multiple currencies or transfer from your bitcoin, ethereum, ethereum classic, nxt, bitcoin cash, bat, mco, storj and other wallets to your glassvault. we have a federation server, so you can send funds to paywith.glass glassvaults using the <username>*paywith.glass method for convenience.
it works the other way too so if you want to transfer to your bank account, paypal etc or back to your favourite crypto wallet in whatever crypto currency you use, you can do that too. or you can send from your glassvault to other users' glassvaults or from the glassvault to other stellar wallets (xlm, eurt & eqd only atm).
as we grow and spread worldwide, you won't need to use a card or cash, nor will you need to pay foreign transaction charges when you travel, you can just paywith.glass and it's done.
you can find details on our f6s page here:
<https://www.f6s.com/paywith.glass/>
and on our initial site here (don't worry, it will be improved before we go live):
<https://paywith.glass>
more details will be posted soon including a link to the testnet site so you can try it out for yourselves.
the mobile app is on the way but as it does more than just paywith.glass (full looking.glass app) it's taking a bit longer to get to production... bear us 🙂
we would like to enter paywith.glass into the november stellar build challenge.
keep checking back here over the next few days for updates and the testnet link. we're hard at working putting the finishing touches on this awesome platform which was super challenging to make so we hope you'll like it.
**for the sbc judges:**
1. fyi, the current build as entered into the build challenge runs on the testnet.
2. as we are not yet legally able to process live payments through the platform, you may use the following test card numbers for the deposit by debit/credit card features: <https://stripe.com/docs/testing#cards>
3. while additional locations and languages will be available at launch time, the test build expects that you are a uk-based user.
4. to test the bill payments feature, ping me an email so i can generate a couple of dummy invoices for your username, that you can retrieve and use for the demonstration.

### **description:**
usually when i try to explain to someone what blockchain is and what benefits it has, they don’t understand the concept.
when i understood the blockchain concept my first thought was: *“why ordinary people like my parents or my sister are not using this? why can’t i go to a grocery store and pay with blockchain?”*
this is when i thought: *“how can i make the payments with blockchain, something common to everybody's day?”*
this is our mission, that's how wolfchain was born.
wolfchain is a platform where you can buy, sell, exchange, send and receive currencies, made easy, made close to people. a platform where the only thing you have to do is create an account and start operating.
we want to bring blockchain to stores, ecommerces, applications, etc. that’s why we also want to create a tool for accepting payments, easy to use and easy to implement in an ecommerce or a store.
in our platform people can use ordinary currencies like euro, us dollar and cryptocurrencies, also we are working to add more coins soon.
deep investigation lead us to discover this community and this platform, stellar network, a blockchain that makes it possible for us to carry out our idea. bringing fast, simple and secure payments to everyone.
we have launched an alpha version [wolfchain.dev](https://wolfchain.dev). you can signup and get your own user or use the following:
user: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
password: st3ll4r!
you can also put fake data and photos and create a new user to test our web, it will now be automatically verified.
now the web is using stellar testnet and paypal sandbox
paypal credentials:
user: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
password: xaex-xii0
### **answers & questions:**
**what is wolfchain?**
the current objective is to have a place where you can manage your wallet, carry out operations, etc.,
but focused on a user who does not know the blockchain environment.
if we really want non-blockchain-users to use it, they must be allowed to do more, and they must be shown that there are more options than just trading; that's why wolfchain is not just a place to access your wallet, wolfchain is also a payment gateway, physically and online, a place where anyone regardless of their knowledge can use stellar.
**what values is wolfchain adding to the stellar community?**
it is true that we have focused our project on people who doare not familiar with the blockchain environment, but we also want to allow the existing community to use our project, we want to allow adding assets, using your already created wallet or even accessing other stellar places in a way fast with our extension, even integrating tools already created by the community to see more advanced aspects.
**more description:**
we are not just an exchange - dex is a small part of our website. our idea is to develop a much friendlier environment for people who are not used to cryptocurrencies. we tested it with friends who do not know the crypto environment and knew how to manage , understood how to enter or how to exchange.
we want to create a payment gateway both physically and virtually so that all types of business can implement it. create a plugin from wordpress, shopify, etc.
we want to create a chrome extension to be able to access other sites through stellar and to be able to pay on the websites that use our gateway quickly.
during this week we have asked several people in our environment, when entering other exchanges or even on our website when seeing transaction ids, wallet addresses do not understand exactly what they are or what they are doing.
we are aiming for a simple interface.
we want to make it as friendly as a bank, save wallets names to be able to recognize from who you receive or who you send, just like a bank “you have received € 98.00 from marta”, “you have spent € 34.65 in the cloth store”
you can not buy eth, btc on our website. you can buy or add fiat currencies and then exchange them. from what i have been able to see, this purchase is allowed by paypal and once paypal confirms the payment, from our issuer we send the purchased currency to be euro , dollar or pound sterling.
**app:**
in the app you can find the same thing we have on our website, also with a friendly and understandable design for everyone.
in the case of mobile phones with a fingerprint reader, a transaction can be signed by reading the fingerprint. 2fa faster than email or sms
**extension:**
using the extension you can make basic movements and see your account in a basic way, to obtain the balances quickly and without having to continuously login. what will be most useful to the extension is that when you pay in a store through our payment gateway, you will be able to confirm the payment from the extension, making paying much easier, faster and safer.
**payment gateway:**
it would be divided into two parts. the first one, oriented to e-commerces; we want to make it easy to implement, with a wordpress and shopify plugin. the second one would be a pos for physical stores; we want to develop a hardware that through nfc allows to pay by bringing the mobile closer. in my country, physical pos are not usually liked by businesses because the rates are very high and have a high monthly cost.
### **transparency:**
on our platform you can put and remove assets instantly since we always keep all the liquidity, when someone adds funds we do not use those funds, they stay in the account to pay future withdrawals, in this way we ensure that the liquidity in the network be the same as in our paypal account or bank account.
**we will never use your money.**
you can always obtain the secret of the wallet in a secure way by confirming the password.
the user can choose to save the wallet in our database or save it locally using the app or the chrome extension. we want you to always have complete freedom and access to your funds.
**design**
we have been researching two types of design, flat and neumorphism, we also have two themes, light and dark mode.

**features**
view your balance and transactions (dashboard):
this is a transaction model design and a balance graph very easy to use and intuitive.

send
a place to send your assets to another wallet

receive
a place to get your wallet address and a qr code

dex - exchange

about us
hey, i'm jordi, i'm from mallorca, spain and i'm 19 years old. i have always liked to innovate and look for new ideas, new fields to explore, blockchain has been one of those for a long time that caught my attention. at 17 i applied to a technology campus, emprenbit where we had to present an entrepreneurial idea, i won the first prize and i saw what i liked to undertake. also as an emprenbit award i was a speaker at the miroincube hackathon.

i’m christian from mallorca, i’m 23 years old, i started getting interested in blockchain’s world 1 year ago. i knew that this was the future.at first, it was really hard for me to understand how to use blockchain, so i asked myself , “why don’t you make a web application easy to use for everybody?” wolfchain is that application…

this year we had to deliver a final grade project, we decided to create wolfchain, we liked the project so much that we wanted to take it to another scale, to make a large, useful project for everyone.
we studied medium grade: “it management”, and high grade: “web developer” at “es liceu” in mallorca, which allowed us bringing wolfchain to life.
we are currently presenting the project in a business incubator of the government of the balearic islands, our province, there they will advise us both legally and business. the [“fundació bit”](http://emprenbit.org/?idi=3) incubator is subsidized by the european commission and the government of spain, so they will also require us to comply with all laws and regulations.

### why a farmers market?
farmers produce value ([assets](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/)), yet they receive very little in return. small farms produce over 80% of the food in the us (surprising right!).
on average, successful farms only earn about 8 cents for every dollar they spend. the unsuccessful farms actually loose money and build debt, while still producing their product.
traditional platforms that non-agricultural businesses might use (like the big 3), often ban agricultural organizations and businesses from selling or trading their goods. farmers desperately need a new decentralized solution.
### why stellar?
using the [decentralized exchange](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/glossary/decentralized-exchange/) built into the stellar protocol, farmers are able to buy and sell to entirely new markets, they no longer have to settle for using cash (fiat) as a means to run and grow their business. now they can trade directly with their consumers and suppliers.
maybe they need hay to feed their cows so that they can produce milk; instead of selling the milk for fiat then buying hay they can trade directly with their hay supplier.
as you can imagine farms are very seasonal, by creating a general token (as a sort of credit) for their business they can actually create liquidity, presell their crops and thrive through the times they would normally suffer.
small farms like u-pick blueberries who struggle to charge the right price according to market demand ($2 instead of $5), now have a mechanism using buy/sell offers on the exchange to get the right price... taking that 8 cents on every dollar up to maybe 50 cents or more, enabling them to succeed and grow.
anara farmers market wont be limited to just farms, we fully expect grocery stores, co-ops and individuals to create markets for their products as well. imagine trader joes or natural grocers creating a market or joining a co-op. they could then create a token which can be awarded to shoppers and useable within the co-op.
### what the market does.
the anara farmers market is being built to enable anyone with an farm related business (anywhere in the world) to create a presence on the stellar blockchain. our goal is to make it easy to create and trade [assets](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/), market to the right people and build trust in their organization.
we do that by embracing all of the features built into the stellar protocol.
### how does it work?
when you create a new market at anara, you're creating a stellar home domain and building your [stellar.toml](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/publishing-asset-info/). as i'm sure you already know the [stellar.toml](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/publishing-asset-info/) is used by wallets, exchanges and businesses to identify and trust your assets, this is the first essential step to digitally representing the value you produce because it enables anyone to buy and sell your assets.
once you have a domain, farmers can start to build trust and grow their market. they do that by creating [assets](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/), either as a general token for their business or a token for every product they make; anchoring the product to the token. the more their assets are trusted (via [trustlines](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/issuing-assets/anatomy-of-an-asset/#trustlines)) the bigger their market grows.
### conclusion
the stellar blockchain has created an exciting platform for business, help us build the future markets on the platform and vote for the anara farmers market.

===========
#### *authenticate using your stellar account*
**summary:**
authentication, identity and security are all hard to get right but stellar has all of these built in at the core level, so why not take advantage of these features and put them to use for something other than just value transfer? authentication at its core is simply a process for providing appropriate permissions for specific actions. stellar transaction submissions are uniquely qualified to provide this service via the signatures concept. you can tweak access nearly infinitely simply by using signers as the block. if a transaction is successfully signed and makes it to the ledger you can rest assured any dependent action now is safe to execute.
take application login for instance. if a stellar account is tied to a user object you can block access to the user object until the associated stellar account successfully submits an authentication transaction. tie that account to [stellarguard](https://galactictalk.org/d/1916-stellarguard-security-for-your-stellar-account) and you've got a fully secured multi-signer 2fa authentication flow essentially for free.
this is the mission of stellarauth, a tremendously secure, yet fully flexible permissions service.
**links:**
* demo: <https://demo.stellarauth.com>
* docs: <https://github.com/tinyanvil/stellarauth-serverless/blob/master/readme.md>
* code:
+ <https://github.com/tinyanvil/stellarauth-serverless>
+ <https://github.com/tinyanvil/stellarauth-nuxt>
+ <https://github.com/tinyanvil/stellarauth-postgresql>
**how it works:**
1. make a request to access something secure via a public stellar account
2. receive back a partially signed transaction xdr
3. sign and submit that transaction via your favorite wallet
4. verify the transaction hash and pass the success or failure to load or block whatever you're securing
**features:**
* auth requests must be signed only by the requesting account
+ entire transactions are secured not just individual operations
+ transactions must be sent and verified by the the ledger not just signature checked
* requests must be timed and valid only for a short period of time
+ just because a transaction is valid today doesn't mean it should be valid 2 years from now
* requests should not drain the account of any balance, not even the transaction fee
+ transaction fees are covered by the stellarauth service
* universal support of third party wallets and signing apps (like stellarguard or ledger)
+ should be able to plug in and use stellarauth with existing systems
---
**future features:**
* ability to create and manage accounts (think auth0 meets authy/google authenticator)
+ <https://medium.com/lumenauts/dealing-with-crypto-on-the-client-side-2a79209eb8b5>
* build a widget you could install on your own site (also like auth0)
* support for trezor

"text": "it's come to my attention that stellarauth is incredibly similar to [sep-0010](https://github.com/stellar/stellar-protocol/blob/master/ecosystem/sep-0010.md) and as it does serve the same purpose i'm opening up a discussion on the differences between stellarauth and sep-0010. sep-0010 has been around for awhile and it's to my shame for not doing better research around existing proposals and solutions to the authentication problem of stellar. however after digging in and discussing with [@nebolsin](https://galactictalk.org/u/nebolsin) and [@cballou](https://galactictalk.org/u/cballou) i think there's still room for stellarauth as a vehicle for getting sep-0010 wider adoption and for adding the appropriate updates and changes which could make the proposal more secure and usable. to that end i'm going to dig in a bit into the internals of stellarauth and point out the difference to sep-0010 and why i've made the choices i have and why they may in fact be preferable to sep-0010 as it stands today. **discussion is welcomed.**\n\n\nthe largest difference would be that stellarauth requires a transaction to be submitted to the ledger while sep-0010 just verifies the transaction signatures. the reason for this i assume was to keep stellar from being flooded with authentication transactions by only using the signature check functionality to verify identity rather than going the whole way to push a transaction into the network. while i understand the sentiment i a) don't think the volume would be large enough to make a difference, (if it were we'd have larger problems) and b) i think there's a lot of value to be gained by having login records embedded into the ledger. immutable access logs are a powerful security measure and with tools like stellarguard you can get tfa essentially for free. there's a reason we have blockchain and not just successful signatures, there's more to security than signing things.\n\n\nadditionally there are several concerns i have with sep-0010 when actually using it most significantly in the areas of additional signers and replay attacks.\n\n\nsep-0010 relies on the maxtimeout of the transaction to determine how long any given transaction can be used for verification and as long as you're under that timestamp you can use the same xdr to verify a session. this is probably an unwarranted concern though as the xdr must be successfully signed before it can generate a session but best practice would say once a challenge (transaction) has been used to generate a session it shouldn't be able to be used again ever in any case, currently it can. stellarauth combats this be proactively generating a jwt which will remain invalid until the transaction it's associated with is submitted to the ledger. each session then is tied individually and only to a specific pre-ledger transaction. to gain access to that session you must have access to the transaction and once it's been submitted the jwt goes live and replay attacks become a non issue as there's nothing to replay.\n\n\nthe second concern i encountered was specific to the implementation of sep-0010 in the [evil martians' demo](https://github.com/gzigzigzeo/stellar-sep-0010-implementation) in the fact that they bypass additional signers like stellarguard. while this isn't specific to sep-0010 and you could implement further checks on your own, it calls into question again the choice not to push transactions live to the ledger. in stellarauth you would be blocked from authenticating until the transaction made it successfully to the ledger which will encompass all the checks including signers but also any future blocks which may be implemented. with so many potential pitfalls here and any given implementer of sep-0010 left to handle this responsibly on their own it leaves sep-0010 a little thin right now and opens the door for a service like stellarauth to fill in the gaps and ensure all possible scenarios are covered.\n\n\none of the cool things about stellarauth is its flexibility for far more than just login. since the account acts as a sort of “role” you could create some pretty complex authentication scenarios. by just adding signers you can block authentication until all signers have added their signature. you can also create “teams” by adding all team members as signers with the same weight. now any of them could sign into a single company account via that one stellar account. add custom metadata, home domains, assets, trustlines etc. and you’ve got room for a very robust authentication flow all from within the stellar ecosystem. some of this could work alongside sep-0010 but because you aren’t actually submitting transactions to the network the functionality and checks for the authentication would have to be made on the implementers side rather than on the stellar side greatly reducing the usefulness of the proposal as it stands today.\n\n\nultimately it may come down to preference. perhaps you don't want to flood the ledger with auth transactions or have to worry about the transaction fees. perhaps you want to be able to authenticate accounts which don't even exist on stellar or have been locked out due to high weights and a lack of appropriate signers or maybe bypassing additional signers is a non issue. it's possible but i don't think it's ideal or a good default. both could be options but actual submissions to the ledger should at least be an option if not the recommended default in my opinion.\n\n\napologies again if i've misrepresented or misunderstood sep-0010 in any way, feel free to correct me and discuss further. authentication via stellar is an important yet tricky subject and the discussion is worth it to ensure we get it right.\n\n",

"text": "[tyvdh](https://galactictalk.org/d/1977/7) here're the main reasons why sep-10 uses off-chain transactions:\n\n\n1. privacy — for security reasons we want the auth transaction to include the name of the entity it authenticates with, and you don't always want to make the log of your authentication sessions a public knowledge. sep-10 is designed to work with traditional web services, which could work on top of their own databases and don't necessarily leave any traces of you using the service on a public ledger.\n2. genericity — using on-chain transactions limits authentication to accounts which exist on the network, while with off-chain flow you can authenticate with any ed25519 keypair. for example, as an extra protection against scam and user mistakes, traditional exchange like binance could use the sep-10 authentication flow upon xlm withdrawal to ensure that user has control over the destination account. another use case is a multisig orchestration service, where signer needs to authenticate in order to get the list of transaction pending his signature (and ed25519 account signer in stellar is just a keypair which doesn't necessarily exists as account on the network).\n3. speed — with on-chain transactions you have to wait for the next ledger to verify the tx, which slows down the process and increases the integration complexity with handling delays and retry semantics\n4. cost and unnecessary load on the network — you already discussed this above, but i'd like to point out that refunding user's transaction fees via service's own funds is not a scalable model\n\n\n\n> [tyvdh](https://galactictalk.org/d/1977/3) best practice would say once a challenge (transaction) has been used to generate a session it shouldn't be able to be used again ever in any case, [but with sep-10] currently it can\n> \n> \n\n\nin sep-10 challenge transaction includes cryptographically strong random nonce, and the issued jwt is linked to the challenge transaction through `jti` claim. so when it's necessary the implementation can keep track of the nonces and provide strong replay guarantee, but in simpler cases you can keep auth service stateless which is a lot easier.\n\n\n\n> [tyvdh](https://galactictalk.org/d/1977/3) with so many potential pitfalls here and any given implementer of sep-0010 left to handle this responsibly on their own it leaves sep-0010 a little thin right now and opens the door for a service like stellarauth to fill in the gaps and ensure all possible scenarios are covered.\n> \n> \n\n\nsep-10 is intentionally minimalistic and only focused on the authentication (not *authorization*, which can be defined by higher-level seps or by the particular service like stellarauth). it defines a simple challenge-response flow which allows a client, identified by ed25519 public key, to prove the possession of the corresponding secret key to an external service and exchange it for service-specific auth token. it's designed to be implemented by wallets, and it puts minimal required restrictions on the service side of the process to support as many use cases as possible.\n\n\nand before diving into sep-10/stellarauth compatibility discussion, i would love to better understand the use case stellarauth is targeting. can you please share some specific examples of how projects would integrate and use stellarauth?\n\n",

i want to build for usage not users. i want colorglyph to be appealing to anyone, not just those with existing stellar accounts or those who have the knowhow or courage to dive into it. i want my mom and brothers, my sisters and cousins, my neighbors and friends, very few of which do or will ever care about stellar as a company, to be able to jump right in and play with minimal technical friction. this will require a massive shift from our current thinking when it comes to how we build stellar apps and who we build them for. \n\nfor me that boils down to abstracting stellar away into services other applications like colorglyph can implement to gain all the benefits of stellar without having to surface any technical friction directly to their users. stellarauth is the linchpin for this initiative. an onramp into the network which is managed by applications but controlled transparently or familiarly by users. the goal would be for stellarauth to have a client facing web, mobile, browser extension app which serves as a sort of authy or google authenticator for stellar. the permissions gateway for applications to perform actions on a users account. much like stellarguard or lobstr vault do today. the big difference is that stellarauth will be both a signing app and a wallet. new accounts can be created transparently from the application side much like you would add 2fa to an account today. from there future transactions submitted to the network would pass through this client app for the final yes/no.\n\n\nthis is obviously far from what stellarauth is today, though not as far as it may seem. it is clear then that for my use case funded accounts and actual transaction submission to the ledger would be baked into what stellarauth would be doing. if stellarauth was *just* authenticated web sessions than sep-10 would likely be sufficient, but as you can see i have bigger goals than just login.\n\n\nall that to say there probably isn’t much or anything that needs to change with sep-10, it’s been an incredibly helpful sep along with sep-7 for guiding the future of stellarauth and ensuring i’m building a compliant, secure and usable service.\n\n",

### **title**
[lumink.io](http://lumink.io/) - personal payment gateway based on the lumen | xlm token
### **summary**
lumink is a personal payment gateway that lets you make payment links with 170 currencies and receive xlm from your friends and customers.
### **category**
application
### **goal**
to facilitate the adoption of xlm on the web and social media and to help non-technical individuals use stellar as a global decentralized network with high speed and low fees.
### **what is a personal payment gateway?**
in general, any internet link in the name of a business owner that allows customers to pay for goods or services online can be considered a personal gateway. in other words, a personal gateway is an exclusive link that you can use instead of a bank account number to receive online payments.
### **why a payment link?**
because a payment link is one of the easiest ways to receive money and requires no technical knowledge. you can create payment links with just a few clicks and send them to your friends or customers to receive money.
### **where can i use payment links?**
if you have an online business, and you want your users on social media (e.g., instagram and telegram) to pay online, you can easily create your payment gateway without technical knowledge.

if you’re a freelancer working with clients outside your country, you can send a link to your clients and collect your payment.

### **advantages of a lumink**
**currency converter with 170 national currencies**
you can generate links in any currency without worrying about xlm price fluctuation because the conversion to xlm happens right before the payment is made.
**pleasing user experience**
lumink is based on a beautiful ui and creates a pleasing payment experience.
we've also created a qr code feature that generates a qr code containing the amount and address. this feature makes it easier for mobile users to make payments.
**no processing limits**
you can send the payment link to as many people as you want. a link can handle hundreds of thousands of links since we make the transactions unique using data.
### **how to use lumink?**
log on to lumink and enter your information (amount, currency, and address) to create your payment link.
then click ‘create’ to generate your payment link.

congratulations! you have just created a payment link you can share with anyone.

once you share the link with someone, they can log on and pay the requested amount. after making the payment, the user will receive a success message.

each payment is associated with an identifier string that starts with a p. the identifier can be used to track payment status. all you have to do is log on to the check status page and enter your payment id.

### **whose account are the funds transferred to?**
all the funds will be transferred to the address you provide when creating the link.
this is an initial version of lumink (an mvp). we have an update coming up in three weeks (around july 10th) which will include fixing the bugs you reported and adding dashboard sections to the to see payment links generated from an address as well as payments made by that address.

summary
-------
cosmic.vote implements the first building blocks for decentralized organizations on stellar: majority judgment and passive contracts. majority judgment is a robust voting system that is suitable for achieving both community and automated consensus. a passive contract is a mechanism that achieves trustless turing-complete computations under specific conditions. cosmic.vote provides an open-source implementation of those, as well as three real-world use cases: polls, contests w/ decentralized prize pools, & oracles.

7. enjoy!
description
-----------
**cosmic.vote is about running votes, prize distributions, and oracles without having to rely on a third-party.** this quality, referred to as "trustless", is fundamental to cryptocurrencies. what has achieved bitcoin? the first digital currency that doesn't require a trusted third-party to exists. what has achieved ethereum? contracts that don't require a trusted third-party to execute. what about defi? same principles.
in cryptocurrency-related development, trustlessness is more than a nice quality to have: it is a requirement. while stellar can't execute arbitrary code as ethereum does, in some cases, it is possible to achieve similar results using alternative mechanisms.
cosmic.vote introduces some of those mechanisms as the firsts building blocks for decentralized organizations on stellar. it shows how those can be combined together to build trustless systems that would normally require turing-complete smart contracts.
**majority judgment** is a voting system first described in 2007 by r. laraki & m. balinski as the least bad solution to [arrows's impossibility theorem](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/arrows-impossibility-theorem.asp#:~:text=arrow%27s%20impossibility%20theorem%20is%20a,principles%20of%20fair%20voting%20procedures.&text=arrow%2c%20is%20also%20known%20as%20the%20general%20impossibility%20theorem.)
this theorem, pivotal in social choice theory, states that it is impossible to create a voting system that is fully resistant to aberrant results. in his work, kenneth arrow went over the many ways voting systems can be (and are) abused. the research that leads to majority judgment capitalized on that work to figure out a system that would, at least, mitigate those issues as much as possible.
what is beautiful about majority judgment is that, despite being the most robust voting system known to that day, it is simple enough to be understood & put in practice by everyone. thus, it is a suitable alternative to traditional voting systems, be it a simple online poll or national elections.
**passive contracts** are a way to build contracts that makes it possible to run complex programs such as voting systems without having to rely on a third-party. the principle is to store the contract parameters on the ledger and to have the clients perform the computations. for a particular family of programs, which is referred to as "fully functional", this facility provably achieves trustless layer 2 contracts.
the limit here is that passive contracts cannot mutate the ledger. in simple words, they can do pretty much everything except sending money.
**operated contracts** are an extension of passive contracts, that are already being used in many systems, but those have the limitation of requiring third-party for settlement. that's why, while possible on stellar, this family of contracts is often left aside as unsuitable. however, under certain conditions, they can be leveraged to achieve a near-optimal level of robustness.

greeting stellar family!
in order to achieve lumenswap's ultimate goal, which is a perfect client for trading and swapping assets on the stellar network, we decided to represent milestones as the evolution stages of a product.
the third milestone of the lumenswap evolution road was the introduction of lsp asset.
### why lsp asset
for a number of reasons, a crypto exchange may create its own asset, and exchange owners frequently distribute assets to users as incentives. most exchange assets are meant to enhance an exchange's liquidity, reward trading activity, or make the exchange's community governance process easier. let's take a deeper look on the process:
**enhanced liquidity**
in a financial market, liquidity refers to the availability of trading activity that can be depended on. markets with greater liquidity run more smoothly, and assets with greater liquidity may be traded more readily without significant price changes or slippage. crypto exchanges can utilize native assets to motivate market makers in the absence of traditional market makers by giving incentives proportionally to their overall trading volume or through specified staking programs.
**governance**
not all cryptocurrency exchange assets are intended to be used as a bonus for platform users. several crypto exchanges have released native assets as a governance tool for the exchange's future development. while this use case is less frequent than others, decentralized exchange assets have become an increasingly significant goal for dexs looking to migrate to completely community-run operations.
### introduction

lsp is a reward and governance asset which has a major role in keeping the lumenswap ecosystem cycle dynamic and decentralized.
1,000,000,000 lsp asset (fixed) have been minted at the genesis and will be vested over the course of 10 years.
**asset info**
asset issuer: [gab7sthvd…mkdm24wk](https://stellar.expert/explorer/public/asset/lsp-gab7sthvd5bdh3eeyxpi3om7pcs4v443pyb5fnt6cfgjvpdlmkdm24wk)
asset code: lsp
asset type: credit\_alphanum4
decimal: 7
note: we have enabled the immutable flag for lsp, which means that the asset issuer (lumenswap team) has no control over the asset and the holders have their own control. our reason for handing over total control was that lumenswap is a decentralized project by nature and developers must have no influence over assets. read more about accounts flags: <https://developers.stellar.org/docs/glossary/accounts/#flags>
### lsp tokenomics
**asset allocation**

19% team
16% foundation
3% advisors
40% ecosystem rewards
12% community public sale
10% marketing
**lsp asset circulation schedule**

**lock details**

note: we have planned an auction for the public sale in the lumenswap spot client (ido). we will announce more details in the coming weeks.
to establish transparency in the way assets are unlocked according to the plan we announced, we put them in different addresses so that you can follow their distribution process.
public sale account: [ga6n5cbq…fx56b72d](https://lumenscan.io/account/ga6n5cbq4bhvsnp6ncs3aej5zlzgr6wjnt4q4dhura5mtl3bfx56b72d)
team account: [gb6om72c…mv5xld4i](https://lumenscan.io/account/gb6om72csxf2t3tv3o5fvka5edghr2zyulb24ppadwpb3zcvmv5xld4i)
advisor account: [gdtsm26b…hxw5wium](https://lumenscan.io/account/gdtsm26bthemekpivq7uhdee2pbc6l5arphyl5nqhpph2sf2hxw5wium)
ecosystem rewards account: [gddd65vo…gsze6bby](https://lumenscan.io/account/gddd65vo2kynwgig5oakjtlk5rwbq5owuycyo4dj2cbvfgregsze6bby)
marketing account: [gcyn3f4d…5j266ylj](https://lumenscan.io/account/gcyn3f4dldbkg5wygqdzhxxk7zheryqdz5v34zdti7s3tzuq5j266ylj)
foundation account: [gclqtgih…j2eodjh3](https://lumenscan.io/account/gclqtgihaxinn5ab6t5d7jipjx5ry23ktggy5fo2zsfrruu3j2eodjh3)
### lsp use-cases
**1. rewards for lsp holders**
each month, we will distribute 25% of the total assets between lsp holders. the monthly distributions will continue for 10 years.
on a randomly selected day of the month, we will take a snapshot of all lsp holder accounts to determine the rewards. so, all users who hold lsp for an entire month will receive their reward and have nothing to worry about.
**2. rewards for lsp traders**
each month, we will distribute 15% of total assets between people who trade lsp. the monthly distributions will continue for 10 years. for each round of distribution, we randomly select 1000 accounts with lsp trade history to give them a reward.
note: the trade does not necessarily have to be done on lumenswap; it can be traded on any platform that is on the stellar network.
for the sake of transparency, we will announce a list of accounts that received rewards in an article each month.
**3. governance**
because we are moving towards a goal that has already been set - decentralization and transparency - we will use the governance model for future lumenswap decisions.
note: the governance implementation process and its rules will be announced in detail later in an article.
thank you for reading this article.

f98f425831d36269b253765dee84781d | stellar federated service provides an easy way to send money to anyone using a memorizable id instead of a cryptic stellar id. i have created a stellar federated service beginning of this year that i open sourced and i run under <https://stellarfed.org>
this service unlike others uses email address in the federated addresses. so an example of a valid federated address on stellarfed is [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])*stellarfed.org
url: <https://stellarfed.org/u/[email protected]>
using this i created a stellar network watcher to look for payment transactions to stellar accounts that have an associated federated id and email users of the transaction on that account. since i have the email in the federated id i can send them an email and users can opt out of the email if they only want a federation service.
i would appreciate feedback on the website and this account watcher feature.
for the next phase of this project i am considering allowing users to send payment to users who do not have a stellar account. if i want to send lumens to my friends who do not have an account i can just send it to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])*stellarfed.org and it will generate a stellar account on the fly and the payment will go to that. my service will then email that user at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) which is the email of my friend and they will get the email with the secret key that they can use to view their account or transfer money to another stellar account they own. for this feature i will be using the new claimable balances operation which will allow the sender to gain control of the send lumens if they are not claimed within a certain time frame like 1 week.

81facc0ad0e67b2ea725b71df3d4e185 | hi everyone,
with stellarbeat.io we're setting out to make the stellar network visible.
we're developing a crawler that finds and queries all nodes on the network and gathers as much information about them as possible.
the results will be shown on the stellarbeat.io website.
we're starting out with each node's ip, isp and geographic location (based on geoip).
we also continuously track how many nodes are available, so we can see how the network grows over time.
the dataset that results from our crawling efforts will be made available to all.
it's very much a work in progress. once the above is fully implemented and polished we have plenty of things we want to add to the dataset and statistics shown. we also plan to open-source the crawler, although with the deadline looming that is more likely to happen in the next sbc.
any feedback is obviously very welcome.
thanks.
<https://stellarbeat.io/>
p.s.: the data currently shown is to be seen as dummy data. we'll update with live data asap.

91e813eeca731e02571096c32705a187 | greetings! i didn't notice a dedicated 'intro' thread so i am posting a new topic, apologies if i missed it! my name is mo and i'm founder of dev null productions, an early stage startup focused on blockchain intelligence and analytics. we recently stumbled upon xlm and immediately became a fan, this ground-breaking technology is sure to revolutionize the world of payment and currencies in coming years!
going forward we're very eager to learn more and start taking part of this ecosystem from the role of an agile development shop with a proven track record of creating tools and services with real world applications. to start off we're going to spend some time getting intimately acquainted with the technology, how currencies are represented on the xlm ledger and how they are sent across the network. we've always been a fan of diving into a problem via practical application so expect to start seeing various tools and services from us as we expand our knowledge base.
our goal is to move rapidly, quickly coming up to speed with the stack and providing value to the community. we're a big fan of open source technology, our github is very active, and we're always pushing new products and features as well as regularly maintaining our existing applications. as part of this we're planning on participating in the scf in an upcoming round (perhaps in the next one!) we already have a few ideas for neat projects which i'm sure many in the community would find useful!
that's all for now, thank you all in advance for accepting up into the community, we're eager to get our feet wet and start hacking!

98f543b35d39ed53d87e15814e1dc1ca | as you may know i've been mentionning this here and there since i came around in january. while being on my way to implement this i noticed i'm not the only one working on that anymore. so, i'd rather open the thinking process now. the aim is to see if we can agree on a solution satisfying enough.
stellar is a step ahead when it comes to multisignatures, as all setting up operations are handled natively on the blockain, allowing for a wide variety of configurations. however, the signature collection is not part of the scheme so we had to rely on old-school servers with all their known pitfalls. it is possible to move the signature collection process to the blockchain itself and i'll try here to expose a solution for that.
goal
----
when several parties are signing a transaction for a shared account, we want that:
* each signer can send its signature to the collection service
* each signer who happens to get a signature from someone else can send it to the collection service aswell
* each signer can witness the process
* nobody can delete or modify collected signature
* anyone can gather the signatures and attempt to validate the transaction
* non-legit signers can't participate in the process
* nobody owns or rule over the collection service
* it should be efficient
those goals fit very well what blockchain technology have to offer.
attaching datas to transactions
-------------------------------
assuming that each signer can already access the transaction to be signed, a minimum of two pieces of datas have to send to the blockchain:
* the hash of the signed transaction
* a signature
* it could be desirable to be able to attach more signatures in some cases.
a stellar transaction allow for a memo where a transaction hash can fit.
the managedata operation allows to set an entry field to a 64 bytes value, which is exactly the size of a signature.
an additional payment operation with the minimum amount is needed to define a recipient for this transaction. the recipient will be the account where the signatures are collected.
collecting account
------------------
ideally, this would be a dedicated account, that nobody use, and that would be attached to only one account . this way, we minimize the number of transactions to go through when looking for signatures. stellar horizon servers arn't exposing a way to select a transaction by memo, so this is important if we want to keep good performances.
this collecting account should be recorded as an entry into the main account; so the signers would have to meet the threshold to set it up / change it / disable it. in this setup, i would recommend that the lowthreshold, which rules upon managedata operation, is set at the same level than the midthreshold, that rules over most transactions except adding/removing signers.
i propose that we use an entry named "config:signature\_sharing" to store the publickey of the collecting account.
fetching signatures
-------------------
getting the signatures from the transactions on the collecting account is simple enough. one have to filter them by memo, then get the value out of managedata operations. as we don't send any hint about the signature emitter, and as we want that signers can transmit signatures from other members as well, we simply have to try each signature against each signer to find which match. this scheme allow transmitting of hash signatures as well which is a must-have.
this should be noted that only transactions sended by legit signers to the collecting account should be fetched for this operation.
additional side-effect
----------------------
this setup also allows to handle cases were several single signatures account are involved in a multiple-operation transactions, like in smart contracts. in which case, each signers could share its signatures if the *transaction* source have the protocol enabled.
pitfalls
--------
* setting this up may require signature collection which have to be handled another way (i.e.: xdr copying); for new accounts, it is adviseable to enable onchain signature collection first, add co-signers then.
* account master key can't send its signatures as it would mess with sequence number and require multisignature itself. however, it can gather signatures and validate. ideally, the master key of a shared account would be put to 0 for simplicity.
* stellar protocol currently reject transaction with "too much" valid signatures, which's something we'll have to work around. getting the exact right number of signatures may be tricky. anyway this is true for multisig in general and it's not specific to the present proposal.
* it is not clear whether the stellar foundation welcome hosting datas on the blockchain; i told them about my plans and i'm currently waiting for news (doesn't looks like i'll get any).
that's all folks!
-----------------
hopefully this is consensual and simple enough so we can get a standard out of it. i'm actually coding the javascript library that will handle it and i hope to present a reference implementation soon enough.
a next step would be to use a similar design to setup a transaction collecting account, where transaction xdr could be shared between legit signers. this would complete the scheme and allow us to have a really secure and complete solution for multisigning on the stellar blockchain.
if you have any comment to do on this please go ahead so we tackle anything i would have missed.

e5a02faf190f35813907ee7839efc196 | on july 31st 2020, saza will no longer be available on the web. as an alternative, i have developed an open source version of saza wallet that is available on android devices and as a desktop application on mac and linux os.
in order to have access to your stellar accounts after july 31st, 2020, you will need to export your accounts before then and import them on the android or desktop app.
once you login to saza.io now, you should see a prompt to export your account. for steps to import your account on the mobile app, see the guide.
### why is the web wallet shutting down?
* improve safety: although, saza encrypts keys on its server, i think there is still some risk involved. ultimately, it is best for each user to be responsible for their keys. with the mobile and desktop apps, keys will be stored and encrypted locally on the device.
* strength in numbers: i developed saza in 2016 and have been managing it since then. by making it open source my hope is that it will benefit from the knowledge of the community, making it more useful to everyone.
* more features: support new features and operations that are now available on the stellar network.
thank you for using the web wallet. i hope you find the mobile and desktop wallet useful.
do not hesitate to reach out should you have any questions/comments.
stay safe.

1bffa18d1576398c60533813e4169f59 | today i tested two other wallets: stellar desktop client and stargazer. i had previously tested centaurus and stargazer on my android, but this time i decided to test stargazer on the desktop and provide a few more details about this wallet.
stellar desktop client
======================
this wallet is available for download on windows, mac and linux. it allows the user to create an account with the secret key, create a new empty account or open an existing one that was saved on the computer as a file.

very similar to [stellar term](https://galactictalk.org/d/299-wallets-and-trading-clients), stellar desktop client wallet also has trade markets, where the user can buy or sell lumens in exchange for other currencies:


this wallet provides the user’s balance, assets (xlm, eur) and trust limits. it also has the options to send assets directly to other accounts, trust anchors and shows the latest payments and transactions. some advantages about this wallet must be mentioned. first of all, not only it’s a trading client such as stellar term, but it also permits the user to send assets to other users, what stellar term doesn’t have.
second advantage is that it already gives a list of a few known anchors to create a trust line with, different than [ecliptic](https://galactictalk.org/d/299-wallets-and-trading-clients) for example. stellar term has a few more popular exchange market options (with anchors), but doesn’t offer much advantage compared to stellar desktop client.

lastly, i think is relevant to mention that this wallet has the option to deposit or withdraw funds. this option is not provided by other wallets that i tested so far, and it’s really interesting for users who want to send money directly to bank accounts, either for personal ones, relatives that live abroad, friends.
unfortunately it’s still limited only to chinese yuan (cny) asset, so it can only be withdrawn on banks in china or using [alipay](https://intl.alipay.com/). still, this is a great option, and i hope soon it can be transferred in more assets and to more countries.

---
stargazer
=========
the download process of stargazer on the desktop is really simple. it already opens an empty account that requires minimum of 20 xlm to activate it. however, it’s relevant to notice that it doesn’t allow the user to send money to other accounts if it just has 20 xlm on the account, because it needs to have always some amount.
this is a rule for most, if not all the wallets, and it’s tricky if the user wants to delete the account and recover this lumens, as he/she can’t send everything and leave the account empty.

stargazer has the options to create a federated name to the account, add anchors to create trust lines, export the account with a qr code provided and set an inflation destination. the problem of the qr code instead of the secret key to export the account is that it’s complicated to copy and transfer it.

to receive assets the user also has to provide either the qr code for scanning, the public address shown under it or the federated name. as i explained in a [previous article](https://galactictalk.org/d/239-my-experience-with-wallets), the federated name probably won’t be recognized as a valid destination address if the sender has an account in a wallet that doesn’t support federated names.

lastly, it has many language options, different than stellar desktop client that only offers english and chinese as languages. this is a benefit aspect considering that wallet users and potential users come from diverse countries.

180ca6b6543eb3195f0bd2a539c2d647 | open, hosted federation using domainkeys identified federation (dkif)
=====================================================================
hi guys,
we are working on a project which extends the current stellar federation standard/workflow in order to improve security and enable hosted federation without the need to trust the federation provider.
the extension is based on a simplified version of the well known and used standard [dkim (domainkeys identified mail)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/domainkeys_identified_mail). it introduces signing of federation records and signature validation by the client. the solution is backwards compatible with the current workflow. older clients can simply ignore the signature and newer clients which implement the new validation workflow can show a sign to the sender to verify that dkif was used to resolve the federation andress.
using this extension we would like to introduce a donation based, secure and open stellar federation service for stellar community individuals and a hosted federation service for users and organizations who have their own domain but cannot, or do not want to, host their own federation server.
as this proposal would require a minor modification/extension of the current federation workflow, we would be very keen to hear the feedback of the stellar developers together with the community members.
current federation workflow
---------------------------
currently, in order to resolve a federation address, the client needs to do the following:
> 1) fetch the stellar.toml file from https://<domain>/.well-known/stellar.toml and read the federation\_server entry from it
>
> 2) fetch the response from the federation server using secure http get and required parameters
>
> 3) proceed with the payment
>
>
although it is mandatory to use https for both requests, both the web server and the federation server are possible targets for hackers. these servers are directly exposed to the internet and if a hacker manages to compromise either of them they could redirect the payments.
in case an attacker compromised the web server hosting the example.com site, they could rewrite the stellar.toml file pointing the frederation\_server entry to their own host, serving wrong records and receiving all the payments. compromising the federation server would allow the attacker to replace the public keys in each response, receiving all the payments.
proposal: signing and validating the federation records
-------------------------------------------------------
we would like to introduce the signing of the federation records using the workflow below. these signatures can be inspected and validated by the clients (“wallets” who are sending money to a destination address) before sending payments.
### preparation
we generate a domain signing key pair using ed25519 (same algorithm that is used for [other components](https://www.stellar.org/developers/guides/security.html#built-in-security) ) for each domain. we keep the public key in a txt record (same method as dkim) in the dns of the domain which looks like the following: *federation.\_stellardomainkey in txt “<publickey>”*.
the format of the public key matches exactly the format of a stellar address, and the existing tools for creating a signing pair can be used.
we pre-sign the federation records (offline) and include the signatures into the db together with the other entries. we will have one signature per federation entry which contains all the federation records (stellar\_address, account\_id, memo\_type, memo).
we configure the federation server to include a signature entry into the json response which looks like the following (see dkim for more info about fields): *“signature”:”<base64signature>”*
### workflow with the new clients
new clients that support dkif would take the following steps to resolve a federation address and validate it’s signature:
> 1) fetch the stellar.toml file from https://<domain>/.well-known/stellar.toml and read the federation\_server entry from it
>
> 2) fetch the response from the federation server using http get and required parameters
>
> 3) try to fetch the public key from the federation.\_stellardomainkey.<domain> txt record of the domain
>
> 4) if both of the public key and the signature from the federation response were missing then client proceeds with the payment without dkif validation as it currently does
>
> 5) if only one of them was missing (public key or the signature in the federation response), it blocks the payment and warns the sender
>
> 6) if both public key and signature were found, but federation entries cannot be validated using the signature and the public key, it blocks the payment and warns the sender
>
> 7) if federation entries could be validated using the signature and the public key it proceeds with payment (and notes the sender that the resolution was using dkif)
>
>
this workflow is compatible with existing clients and federation servers which do not implement signing/validation. older federation servers would not return a signature field and older clients would just ignore the signatures (we assume that clients ignore additional fields in the json response from federation servers).
### benefits
when a federation service is using dkif, taking over the web server which hosts the stellar.toml file and/or the federation server itself would not allow the attackers to redirect the payment. in order to do that, they would need to alter in addition the dns response on the client side as well.
this allows (and requires) that the open federation providers sign the records offline and upload it to the federation database together with the records.
it also allows the introduction of federation hosting for people or organisations who have their own domains but do not want or cannot run their own federation server. these people can include their public key into their own dns, sign the records with their private key, upload them together with the signatures to a federation hosting provider and point the federation\_server entry to the provider. with this solution there is no need to trust the federation provider as it would not be able to temper with the presigned records or signature.
update: we are live!
--------------------
finally, we went live with our secure open & hosted stellar federation service.
the site is here: <https://lumenbox.org>
please enjoy and provide your feedback. 😉

"text": "[kwt](https://galactictalk.org/d/2504/1) i'm not sure it's clear what you are asking here. maybe try to rephrase your question.\n\n\na dex (decentralised exchange) is part of the stellar protocol, so there is nothing to implement.\n\n\nif you create a custom asset and you provide enough liquidity [by placing offers](https://developers.stellar.org/docs/glossary/decentralized-exchange/#offers) on the dex, then path payments should automatically work.\n\n\n#### example:\n\n\njust to give a simple example here:\n\n\n1. issue an asset abc\n2. put in an **offer** that you are **selling** 100 abc for 1 xlm\n\n\nnow you can do a path payment directly from any asset that has a **buy offer** against xlm, lets say usd. what will happen in the background is that e.g. 0.7 usd will be exchanged for 1 xlm and then 1 xlm will be exchanged for 100 abc. but from the perspective of a user it will be a direct payment from 0.7 usd -> 100 abc.\n\n\ni hope this example clarifies a bit the confusion.\n\n",

1. What do you see in the graph?
2. How do you compare the water consumption of small and big families?
3. Why do most of the big families consume more water than the smaller families?
4. Do all the small families consume less water than the big families?
