Improving FCAS Rating – Flipside Crypto Chainwalker implemented

To increase Burst ratings on CoinmarketCap an integration with FlipsideCrypto was necessary. The so called “chainwalker” was implemented by BAT member ohager, and is now running to gather metrics about User Behavior on the Burst blockchain. It’s expected that analysis is done until next week, raising the entire FCAS rating significantly.

NDS-A now paid by script – every 10 hours

The BMF (BURST Marketing Fund) is paying now the NDS-Award (Networtk-Distribution-Strengthen) every 10 hours to the node operators with valid BURST- addresses, newest BRS version (current BRS 2.4.2) and was seen with the payment of the reward. The NDS-A will be paid from the BMF NDS-A Distributor account.The crawler from https://explorer.burstcoin.network/ is used to identify the valid nodes for the NDS-A.The interval is setup as a subscription from the BMF account with 110 BURST every 10 hours. The payment is fully automated in that way that everyone can send BURST to BMF NDS-A Distributor to distribute the BURST to the node operators. This script was provided by BAT developer Zoh! To participate in the NDS-A, you only need to operate a full-node with the current BRS version 2.4.2 and set your P2P.myPlatform to your BURST account. In your BRS config file set “P2P.shareMyAddress = yes”.Your node is connectable tcp/8123 “P2P.Port = 8123” Download the Qbundle 2.5.3 here and read the manual for the installation.
