Thanks for replying!
Typescript/javascript
Are you using scripts from other sources or you've written everything from scratch?
We use a multisig combined with governance structure
What are the incentives to people run a node?
I'm not sure what you mean by the last part. Could you rephrase?
I mean, Blockchain was written in C++, smart contracts in C++ is hardest than in JavaScript, C++ have a bigger learning curve. Not even saying that performance it's bigger and memory control much better, which would mean lowest specifications for nodes. Anyone on team have C++ skills?
I aim to continue working on the project for at least another month or two after that.
This means that if 2nd proposal is not funded there are changes of not be concluded? Or you pretend to finish no matter what?
Mostly from scratch
At the moment nothing, but later on that would HBD from transaction fees / staked HBD interest
The language choice does affect development. It's a lot faster to write JS code by far. Another big difference for us is there are 10x more web3 libraries in JS than C++. IPFS related libs, VMs, API libs, etc. All of it makes development time a lot less. I can understand C++ for the most part, but I haven't worked with it directly for a long time.
The goal is to release the testnet which will provide the barebones functions of what VSC aims to do. It will be online and operational for anyone to deploy on and start using to build applications on. However, that testnet might not have everything DAPPs want, and for sure won't have every we ultimately want to build, but it will definitely provide the basic functions of smart contracts.
One last question to you.
As far as I know, blocktrades and team pretend to implement smart contracts, I believe in the next 2 years.
From no smart contracts to 2 smart contracts, don't you think it's too much and someone is wasting time?
From my current knowledge it would a L2 approach as well, but with little to no hive direct interaction. At the moment from what I know I wouldn't say it would be very useable for DAPPs. There is a lot more to just bringing contracts to hive, like also making them scalable, providing onboarding onramps, etc. There is a lot more we are targeting that would be attractive to developers.
