Some code archaeology, for general interest and a short, sharp lesson on greed. On 31st May 2013, a Litecoin backport introduces some Qt5 compatibility for Mac Dock icon handling: https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/blob/07b32c2cb247244a58e9e481c97e2e5ec2aa4867/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm#L86The code includes this comment, unremarkable at the time but which would later act as a tell-tale: // write temp file hack (could also be done through QIODevice [memory])
One the 3rd Feb 2014, the change is integrated into MemoryCoin: https://github.com/memorycoin/memorycoin/blob/psforkinit/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm#L98The comment text remains unchanged. // write temp file hack (could also be done through QIODevice [memory])
On the 7th May 2014, carsenk commits the source for Dreamcoin and, although the code was subsequently expunged from the Dreamcoin repos, I forked a copy at the time and we can see that the comment has now changed: https://github.com/gjhiggins/dreamcoin/blob/master/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm#L92// write temp file DRM (could also be done through QIODevice [memory])
The comment testifies to carsenk's crude approach to regexp in that the word “hack” has been regexplaced with “DRM”, making it crystal-clear that DreamCoin was forked from (also-expunged) HackCoin. On the 9th May 2014, the tell-tale continued to sing its sweet song of betrayal, this time for LibertyCoin: https://github.com/liberty-project/LibertyCoin/blob/master/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm#L92// write temp file DRM (could also be done through QIODevice [memory])
And boys and girls, if you listen very carefully, you can right now hear the tune filtering out of CraigsCoin: https://github.com/CraigsCoin/CraigsCoin/blob/master/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm// write temp file CRAIG (could also be done through QIODevice [memory])
So, be careful out there with those greedy regexps, otherwise you could put someone's eye out. Cheers Graham Edit: corrected URLI'm puzzled by your research. Is what you implying good or bad? You also was sloppy while digging and missed the coin that CraigsCoin was actually frorked from. |

I had already bought! Should I buy more?  You might want to wait until the last day and see how many other people are in. |

The same as whatever initial investors paid. Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. The ROI won't come until the team delivers a good product that someone wants to invest a lot of money into. |

What are you talking about? The product is already working and there is POD. As a comparison: Mozzshare shit has market cap of 1mln usd and no working features and no POD. If other coins are any indicator Craigs should be around 3-5k satoshi. That is my target |

I don't own any, but I did check their wallet out and it seems like they are very competent devs. I just didn't like the name. I think backing a coin is a lot like backing a racehorse. |

It might be a good idea to give credit to Librexcoin somewhere in the op.

Professional courtesy and also a thanks for your help librexcoin guys but we will take it from here. It also shows proof of roadmap to get where we are now. Is that a new word por "proof of roadmap"? |

I sincerely believe that admitting it here is well enough. Anyway I think you have a point here, and I will later mention librexcoin somewhere in OP. Probably later today. Thank you for an advice. |

You might get a 6+ POD rating the way you are going. lol Transparency and honesty is what investors are looking for, so keep up the good work. |

I can't wait until the movie "The CraigsCoin Killer" comes out. It should be aired today in 3.5 hours if I'm not messing things with time difference up again. |
