Frequently Asked Questions
Here’s some of the questions that either get asked a lot on Telegram or are inevatible enough to make it worth providing an answer ahead of time.
What is Arbucks?
Arbucks is an open-source charting and analytics web app for Arbitrum!
Is there a token?
There is a token! See the token documentation for details.
Can I help out?
Anyone is welcome to open an issue or submit a pull request to the project GitHub page. If you want, you can share some relevant DRM-free artwork in the Telegram group, and we might use it with your permission. Credit will be given!
How decentralized is it?
It’s by far more decentralized than any other publicly available Arbitrum charting app thus far, but still far from satisfactory. See the decentralization page for more details!
What if this site shuts down?
There is no intention to shut this site down, and there are currently no known threats. Providers would be switched as soon as possible, and in the meantime, you’d have to build and run the code yourself.
What if the developer disappears?
The developer has no intention to purposefully disapper. However, gradual measures of decentralization are being taken to ensure the community can “keep the ball rolling”.
What if this domain gets deleted?
There is no known threat to this domain, but it could in theory get deleted, such as if the registrar decides that it violates some policy. In any case, this site just mirrors arbucks.pages.dev, so that can be considered a backup. However, if that doesn’t work, you’ll have to build and run the code yourself until a new domain is set up. This site will eventually be available on at least one blockchain domain.
How can I report a bug or request a feature?
Currently, the Telegram group is the best place to drop your feedback. Please give the roadmap a quick check before you request a feature though!
What if the Telegram group shuts down?
The community can create a new one, although there are absolutely no plans to shut the group down.
What if I get banned from the Telegram group?
We’ve had a few issues with scammers attempting to hassle our group members. So we have had to ban some users. If you break a rule (there aren’t many), you’ll have to create a new account. Otherwise, you’ll have to trust the admin to not lose their account or make bans that contradict the group’s rules.
Who is operating the Telegram group?
The developer is the owner, while each of the four advisors are group administrators, spanning across multiple timezones. Each username is visible on the team page.
When did the token launch?
September 11, 2021 @ 10 P.M. UTC. This was followed by a presale at 8:30 P.M. UTC the same day.
How can I be sure the smart contracts are safe?
Arbiscan currently has a bug in which new tokens cannot verify their contract code. In the meantime, the source code is available on Pastebin. Furthermore, a step-by-step walkthrough of the code will appear in this very documentation section once we get around to writing it. It’ll be explained in mostly non-technical terms.
What is the token symbol?
BUCK.
What is the contract address of the token?
0xafd871f684f21ab9d7137608c71808f83d75e6fcWhere are you guys based?
As of writing this, there’s one developer and four advisors. The developer is based in the United States and the advisors are based across the world, from APAC to Europe. For more information, you can check out the team page.
Does this have anything to do with Starbucks Coffee?
No.
Is this project affiliated with Offchain Labs?
Technically not, no.
