ORE Block Producer Docs

ORE Network - Block Producer Documentation

The Open Rights Exchange (ORE) Protocol provides a simple and flexible way for developers to add rights/access control, identity, and payment to any application.

The protocol runs on the ORE Network - a secure EOS sister-chain that is hosted by a decentralized network of independant block producers.

This documentation is for ORE block producers and those interested in joining the network.

Block Producer Agreement

The ORE Network is an EOS sister-chain that runs an unmodified version of EOSIO blockchain. However, ORE is not a general-purpose chain. Users cannot deploy smart contracts to the chain. Instead, the chain is only used to house EOS user accounts and to trade 'rights tokens' that provide access to a digital asset (or the right to call an off-chain, ORE-enabled API). These Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) can be owned and transfered between users.

ORE Block producers agree to run a few additional off-chain 'Oracle' services including one that validate these 'rights tokens' and enable calls to off-chain APIs.

Block Producers Agreement - All ORE Block Producers agree to abide by these guidelines

Technical Requirements

ORE Block Producer Technical Requirements - ORE Block Producers should run a minimum hardware configuration and launch their chain using the provided configuration and Genesis file(s)

Test BP's verifiers

Need to test hourly (?) to make sure their verifier is running. If not running, then they would be removed as a BP.

Explanation of SheOS having 2m SYS

SheOS currently has over 2 million SYS that they were able to claim for BP rewards. Given that SheOS didn't start producing blocks until 01-18-2019 their share should be close to 80k SYS.

The number that SheOS has is closer to the total amount of SYS that ALL BPs would have been able to claim from the beginning.

@apimdavid We need to understand the problem so we can correct and prevent in the future.
