Multichain : Appending Data to Blockchain with DATA STREAMS

 

MultiChain streams enable a blockchain to be used as a general purpose append-only database, with the blockchain providing time stamping, notarization and immutability. This video continues from the earlier video post in playlist and now focuses on populating data in the "nutsbolts" blockchain created earlier. 

 

Erstwhile seen node "A" creates a data stream data1, populates some sample data, which is immediately visible in the other node "B". Node A further grants exclusive permissions to Node "B" for send and writing to data stream data1. The complete demonstration is shown on two separate Linux machines as introduced in M-1 and M-2 videos in Multichain playlist i.e. Node A and Node B. data stream created name: "data1" 

 

 Commands used

 

create stream data1 '{"restrict":"write"}' 

 

listpermissions data1.* publish data1 key1 '{"json":{"name":"kabali","city":"chennai"}}' 

 

liststreams 

 

subscribe data1 

 

liststreamitems data1 

 

grant 1...send 

 

grant 1...data1.write 

 

publish data1 key2 '{"json":{"name":"baasha","city":"mumbai"}}' 

 

subscribe data1 

 

liststreamitems data1 

 

liststreamkeys data1 

 

liststreamkeyitems data1 key1

Multichain : How to Connect-Receive-Send to a Blockchain node?

Continuing from the first video that was peculiar to basic instruction and installation of Multichain blockchain platform on Node A, this video moves further by connecting another node B. Node B is a independent node on the network in which the Multichain blockchain application is already installed exactly with the steps seen in the first video of Multichain playlist . The set of commands used in this videos are available as below:

Node A 

First command onwards 

multichain-util create nutsbolts 

multichaind nutsbolts -daemon 

 

 Node B multichaind nutsbolts@192.168.10.19:4265 (IP is as I have configured and you are free to choose ur configuration as u wish) and you will get a unique address starting with 1...... 

 

Node A multichain-cli nutsbolts grant 1... connect send receive (Here with you grant exclusive permission to Node B from Node A Node B 

 

multichaind nutsbolts -daemon (Now the blockchain network will be seen connected to) 

 

To get into interactive shell mode simply type this command at both the node terminals 

 

multichain-cli nutsbolts 

and then on either terminal use the following commands to get useful info of the created blockchain and network peers 

 

getinfo : See a list of all available commands: 

help : Show all permissions currently assigned: 

listpermissions : List the addresses in the wallet: 

listaddresses : For each node, get a list of connected peers: 

getpeerinfo: Get peer info of connected nodes

 

 

Multichain Blockchain Platform: Brief Introduction & Installation

This video gives a minimal few minutes introduction to the Multichain blockchain platform followed by quick installation on an Ubuntu 20.04 OS terminal. This is one of the easiest platforms to play with and understand in much better way the mechanics of blockchain. Primarily CLI based, this video installs the multichain with few commands.

 

Why 0.1 + 0.2 = 0.30000000000000004 ?

Have you ever tried simple calculations in usual programming languages like python, ruby, rust or Java etc 

0.1 + 0.2 = 0.30000000000000004 or 

0.1 + 0.7 = 0.7999999999999999 or 

0.2 + 0.7 = 0.8999999999999999 or 0.3 - 0.1 = 0.19999999999999998 

Why do the results show something unexpected? The reason pertains to IEEE standard IEEE-754 that defines 32bit/64 bit formats for storage of numbers in computers. This presentation tries to bring out simply of where the anomaly exists and why do we get these results. Also reaffirms that the normal IEEE-754 floating point standard will not befit for usual finance and banking applications wherein few zero's can lead to undesired losses for some and unexpected gains for few.

Full expanded form of IOTA blockchain?

 Well.... I always used to look for the expanded form of IOTA blockchain but could never get the answer. But today I got the same finally vide a chat as produced below:

" it's not an acronym, but it stands for the smallest unit possible in the greek alphabet, as with IOTA also micropayments are possible, e.g. 0.000001 cent. IOTA is engineered completely different than a traditional blockchain, but the IOTA Foundation is one of the leading orgs for DLT research globally, pioneering the DAG (directed acyclic graph) since 2016. The DAG enables parallel access to the DLT. IOTA is designing a green, secure, feeless and highly scalable DLT, without the negative "issues" of blockchain. This also makes it very suitable for data-driven scenarios like DID. Organizations also do not need to buy/hold cryptocurrency"

RTL8761B Tobo Mini USB Bluetooth Adapter installation on UBUNTU 20.04

No intro...no discussion....no details....will come direct to the problem and then the solution. :-)

QUERY / PROBLEM: You planning to buy a Bluetooth adapter for your Linux Operating system and are pondering to buy the right one to avoid any driver or installation issues later. Since window OS users have default drivers but not so with most of devices for Linux. So since I recently bought one Tobo Mini USB Bluetooth 5.0 Adapter Wireless Bluetooth Dongle Receiver, I had to search for solutions for smooth installation. So just few lines of code to be run on the terminal and you will be good to go...the drivers for the same are available at the link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-6NI2-PMbX1wmVb1FYbXblaPvZGdKElD 

Once you access this folder you will find the files as seen in pic below:

Download the Linux folder and you will see some thing like below pic

now goto the terminal inside the usb directory and run this command

sudo make install INTERFACE=all

after this command ,next  move to the /home/ur_username/Downloads/rtl8761b/rtkbt-firmware/lib/firmware and run these two commands

sudo cp rtl8761bu_fw /lib/firmware/

sudo cp rtl8761bu_config /lib/firmware/

and that's all...init 6 and checkout...bluetooth will be seen...best wishes.
