Happy Forkin'


With the coming Hardfork 20 there is an exciting week ahead and I'm glad to see many improvements arriving us in just a few days from now. The fact that we will again receive SBD instead of STEEM with our post rewards (as long as the 'SBD Debt Ratio' stays below 10%) will be one of the first noticeable changes for many of us. Thanks to @timcliff's pull request this change may even lead to a higher STEEM price in the long term as he explained in his related post.

Keep in mind that you now may want to vote new posts 15 minutes earlier in order to receive maximum curation rewards, since the payout for curators of coming posts will be calculated with the new logic introduced in HF20 ;)

May the fork be with us!

In the making


Hardfork 20

Preparations for coming changes in HF20

  • Curation rewards calculation, liquid SBD / STEEM post payouts, SBD payouts for beneficiaries and support for new operation types.

Account creation

  • Planning to implement a new tool to be able to create Steem accounts on SteemWorld. Thanks to @paulag for bringing the importance of such a feature to my attention! It may take some time, but I will do my best to get this running soon ;)

Block / Transaction Explorer

  • This important but still missing feature will be implemented in the coming days. The details of each account operation now contain a new 'Transaction Info' field, where we can see the block number, transaction id, transaction index and operation index. The numbers will be clickable so that we can jump directly to the Block Explorer to be able to see all details of the related block / transaction.

Improved Recent Posts Overview

  • Planning to add different views (list, miniature, date) and a possibility to find / navigate to older posts in a more comfortable way.

  • Improving the post refresh logic to take some load from the connected nodes. Only refresh posts when needed and there have been coming in related account operations.

Recent changes


Outgoing Delegations

  • Since the old 'edit delegation' image button did not contain a textual description for its purpose, it was not clearly noticeable that one can edit an existing outgoing delegation by just clicking on it. I changed it to a normal text button and additionally added a new one to be able to directly remove a delegation with a click:

  • When clicking the 'X' button to remove a delegation there will pop up a confirmation dialog:

Inactive Witnesses

  • The witness overview now shows the status of each witness. Strike-through names indicate that these witnesses are currently not using their real signing key and therefore are inactive:

Page-Refresh Improvements

  • As the site grows, it becomes more and more important to only refresh the visible areas on the page in order to keep it fast and stable even on older devices. I've already made some changes regarding to this in the recent days, but a few more are about to come soon.

Thanks!

Here is what I see when I open your account on Chrome:

Is there something blocking the connection to steemworld-ws.org on your device?

Really appreciate all your hard work on this, @steemchiller. SteemWorld is the best third-party Steemit blockchain app by far, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the time and effort you devote to updating it. :)

Same here. I would be devastated if he stopped his steemworld page.

Thank you so much!!! Danke, Danke, DAnke!!

I have a question. The other day, a name showed up red and I have no idea what that means? I think it was a person who voted on a post. Does that mean anything?

We've recently had some issues regarding the number of available public Steem nodes and therefore didn't always have a stable connection to retrieve the data. When a name turns red it means that the account could not be found on the Steem network. This may occur again at some points in the coming days, but as soon as most nodes have been updated to the new version, it should no longer happen.

Thank you so much. I was just wondering if that was a new feature I didn't know about :)

Thanks so much for this update, @steemchiller. Even though and especially because the amount of time I can spend on Steemit is more limited recently, I usually open up SteemWorld right after opening up Steemit. It helps to bring me up to date on what I need to know quickly. Thanks so much for all the hard work you're doing to manifest all the updates!!!

Also, didn't realize your ankle was hurt. Sending Angel healing and Blessings to help it get to 100% soonest.

May the Fork be with you too!!! ;)

hey, @steemchiller.

Looks like things are continuing to progress here. I like the idea of the proposed changes/additions you're making. You've got to be the most actively assessing and tweaking developer of a STEEM related app I know. And I'm appreciative of all of it.

I hope we're able to get through HF 20 without another mishap, just like it's intended to do, though I am wondering what the change over to RC from bandwidth allocation will look like, as well as the two you mention. Unintended consequences seem to have a way of worming in to complicate things, so we'll see.

Since the Top 21 witnesses already reached a super majority and we're still rolling along, I'd say we're in a better spot this week than we were at this time last week.

How are things going? You didn't really mention that this week, so I hope things are well/improving. STEEM seems to be attempting to go up along with the rest of the crypto market. Hopefully, that and our added attention to these posts are helping.

Thanks, as always.

fantastic stuff and thank you for the shout out. It would be fantastic to have that account creation tool available, there is going to be a grab on these account creation tokens and well it be nice for everyone to have the same opportunity and not just the top few.

@steemchiller I cant say it often enough, you rock and i love steemworld.

May the Fork be with you too, @steemchiller!

For several months, I have had steemworld and steemit open side by side... makes the whole Steemit experience much more enjoyable, and pretty much makes all other "helper tools" obsolete.

Good work!

I just found another account with a super high CSI xD
@cheneats, a very good curation hunter, has a CSI score of astonishing 2,642.5
Greetings,

Thanks. Full 100% and resteemed :-)

Good to hear from you again @steemchiller and get the "latest, greatest."

"Since the old 'edit delegation' image button did not contain a textual description for its purpose, it was not clearly noticeable that one can edit an existing outgoing delegation by just clicking on it.

Yes, I see this! But, I hope my issue wasn't the cause of you doing this extra work. I just needed to understand the interface. But ... I do like this change though! 😉

"May the fork be with us!"

Yes, good humor! 👍 😊 Hopefully about this time tomorrow, we'll still be in good humor ...

Greatly appreciate all you do for us and our Steem blockchain @steemchiller. I hope all is well with you and yours.

Back "out on the curation trail" I go now, working with you and others, for a better tomorrow ...

Thank you @roleerob!

But, I hope my issue wasn't the cause of you doing this extra work.

As developer I always see the things from my 'nerdy' perspective and not always are they as clear to others as I see them. You were one of the first who made me think about it and since then I have been asked a few times, if there is a way to edit an existing delegation... ^^

I think it's important to hear the voices of the people who use my site in order to take it to the next level.

Have a nice week ;)

Well, I certainly appreciate that @steemchiller, but also wanting to protect your valuable time and not appear to be a pest ...

I have no argument with your philosophy though! Hope you have a good one as well. And that our "fork in the road" tomorrow doesn't cause you any extra headaches ...
