‪New Ethereum project we are working on. Which logo do you like? Little j or capital J?‬ ‪#eth #ethereum #crypto #cryptocurrency #bitcoin #litecoin #ripple #LogoDesign ‬

I like it more with the small j , but the ethereum symbol seem to large for the rest of the text imo.

What will jedi do ? I'm assuming you are building a dApp ?

I agree, it's not the rich exploiting the poor. But if transactions are paid for by @bevan, he'll want to make back that money in some way, and one way is to offer something 'free' doesn't offer. There was a fundraiser offering special features at different levels.

Note, I'm not judging peepeth or it's developer here.
I just think it's a valid concern : having a platform that's accessible for everyone, funded by people who want to support it, and giving them something in return, without giving them undue advantage over free users.

just to give a little perspective, "they" is one person. @bevan developed and runs peepeth. while there is the possibility that subscriptions/microtransactions could be considered in the future for funding, it's definitely not the rich piggybacking on the poor kind of deal here.

Peepeth.com pays the transaction fee. https://peepeth.com/help/signing

So it's costing Peepeth. That means they have an incentive to make that money back. One way to do so is to provide special features for money ( like higher char limit) . The rich still get an advantage over the poor.
Whether this is good or bad, I don't know. We'll find out :-)

It becomes free my friend :)

Is it really free, or is peepeth paying or it ?
As I understand it, in order to put it on the blockchain, it has to be mined, so there's a transaction fee being paid out to the miner who puts it into the blockchain.

Someone is paying that transaction fee.

For me it worked once I had a local IPFS daemon running 🙂

Thank you, this was indeed the problem.
After I ran the IPFS daemon it worked.
I guess otherwise it just looks locally ( which is useful as a sort of offline cache), but can't find it's not there yet :-)

What is your #ikigai?

This is interesting.
Can I use this ( is it copyrighted, etc... ) ?

Your peep on IPFS https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmUXcZkD8Kqsqxs9nPWSeZ2RAxXUrh38rZex6MhkoQ3xnA

Thank you.
That's so cool.
So it's actually putting it into ipfs before it's on the blockchain ( because I haven't saved this one yet).

IPFS hash is stored as a transaction input to the stateless smart contract. The peeps themselves are stored in IPFS. https://peepeth.com/how

Thanks.
I noticed this hash (starting with Qm.. in the input field in etherscan for my transaction.
However, when I try to look up the hash ( using ipfs cat), it tells me
'Error: merkledag: not found'

I'm probably surely something. Would be cool to retrieve the text though

It is blocked from the front end. But every peep has an ipfs hash, you can still find the content there.

Are the actual 'peeps' stored on the blockchain, or is it only a hash to then validate it afterwards ?

Welcome to Peepeth! What do you think of the EU as a monetary union?

Thank you.
Regarding the EU as monetary union, I like it as it makes travel, etc... a lot easier.

However it can also cause difficulties due to different economies between European countries ( one might need inflation, the other deflation).

Not an economist, so just my opinion

I disagree. EU changed Europe for better.

I agree that the EU changed Europe for the better.
That being said, I do see some room for improvement.
For example, I'd like to be able to vote directly for the EU commission and EU president, and I would like to be able to vote for EU parliament not limited by my country.
