Title: [ANN]:[INSANITY]: A SCRYPT Coin for the Criminally Insane : LAUNCH
Post by: Soul_eater_123 on December 14, 2014, 12:54:55 PM
LAUNCH SCHEDULED FOR 1 AM UK TIME (subject to change if I feel like it, if you can't figure out UK time google it).

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/81196340/Insanity_Coin/Insanity_512px.png

Specifications:
Trading abbreviation: INS
Max total coins: 239234
Block time: 12 hrs
Coins per block: 1
Maturity after: 1 block
Premine: 5% (11961 coins)
P2P port 11000
RPC port 21000
Seednode: 54.194.99.126
(Please ensure that this line is included in the .conf file, particularly if you are using the source code: "addnode=54.194.99.126"  If you are getting a no genesis block error then this is usually the reason why)

Points of note
1) Insanely difficult to mine and very scarce
2) May or may not be a joke (depends on how I feel and whether people want this to continue)
3) MASSIVE PREMINE - this will take 16.4 years to be matched by mining!!!
4) Novelty
5) Fun (for me)
6) THIS WILL MAKE YOU RICH (warning: for legal reasons this will probably not make you rich)

About the premine
- a tribute to Nakamoto's huge instamine of Bitcoin and the massive instamine of Darkcoin
- although I probably won't dump this early (it's insane not stupid) I like the power of having it as a kill switch in case of establishment takeover - the government/NSA/CIA/Walmart/the guy who owns the shop down the street are not going to get anything useful
- if it ever has any value I will auction limited quantities (to reduce the risk of devaluation) in order to fund further (real) technical development
- may be used to build a giant golden goose and buy the Spruce Moose

Pools
None as of yet.

Wallets
Windows wallet: https://mega.co.nz/#!rgwUFA4S!bqbKfZwwjhby_SW771SVYihZ1tQV8NW_2xmQk8Pq04g (https://mega.co.nz/#!rgwUFA4S!bqbKfZwwjhby_SW771SVYihZ1tQV8NW_2xmQk8Pq04g)

I always do.  I suppose the difference here is that this coin is insane but does not lie or try to hide it.  There is my more serious coin MANA which nobody seems interested in because it isn't new/insane/promise to make you rich.  This is the alternative.

All coins are pointless.  They only get a point if people give them one.  Kind of like your trolling post.  It gives you a hard on and a purpose for living.  Therefore a pointless person gets a reason not to commit suicide.

I'm not sure what units you measure time in but there are 24 hours in a day here each hour is made up of 60 minutes. I hope this helps you to understand the meaning of 12 hours.

Trading symbol for this coin?

You'd be insane to choose WOLF (https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_wolf) because that's the trading symbol of the other Insanitycoin.

Also whilst we get close to the launch I should perhaps make a few things clear. 

Although this coin started out as kind of a holiday season joke, if people are really interested in this, and want to build a community around this then it can work. 

Indeed if the community wants even the name can be changed. 

Unfortunately I can't do any of this on my own. I need support and help. 

There is a good side to having a huge premine - i.e. it gives me lots of coins to share with those that help but I need to see that people are genuine and not looking for a quick P&D coin.

I will watch what happens tonight and in the next few days with interest.

OK those who are eagle eyed may have noticed that the windows wallet link and source code are up now.  

So INSANITY IS LIVE - check the original OP for the link.  

It's solo mining only at the moment.

Anyway I'll see if I can find a pool tomorrow.

No the blockchain has been running since yesterday.  I mined those.  The first was the premine, the other 11 coins will be given away.  It is quite common to have a variation in block time near the beginning.  In this case I was testing the wallet/mining on a number of machines.  Nobody else has been mining it because nobody else had the wallet.

Feel free.  That's the point.  A real coin is created by the community.  Unfortunately there is only one real coin right now and that is Bitcoin.  Everything else is a shitcoin until people start using it.

Now do not move blocks
Over 15 minutes
This is really a crazy coin!
How to get 11 coins?

that is because part of design is air gap as per "Unable to connect to wallet RPC service: RPC call failed: Failed to connect to localhost port 21000: Connection refused"

coins will cross over so to speak using ethere (um)

No.  That pool is not actually working which is why it is giving that message.  Did you not read my message which said it is solo mining only right now.

Over 15 minutes - lol - the target block time is 12 hours - it's going to take a long time for you to get 11 coins.  You don't seem to understand the concept of a premine.  Please don't mine it if you don't have a clue what you are doing.

Guys if I get enough interest in the coin I might look at getting some proper paid development work done and rebranding done on it in the new year.  I might also look at a hard fork to reduce the block times while retaining the scarce payout schedule.   I'm also considering creating a faucet to distribute a large chunk of the premine (if I can figure out how to get that working) which should help with distribution and those who are having difficulty mining.  It all depends on enough people being interested.

So the little hitler who does the moderation here gave himself (and it's always a he) a big hard-on by banning me (Soul_Eater_123) for 14 days for my little giveaway.

PATHETIC.

Anyway I've created this temporary account to post from in the meantime.  I now get why everyone hates BTC Talk so much nowadays.  

These pathetic invisible people with no lives like interfering with other people because it is the only power they have.  Well suffice to say I will be looking for an alternative forum location that does not have this problem.

Insanity is going to be rebranded to "element-115" / e115 - this is still ongoing and I will have new announcements with the rebranded wallets, website, thread etc. in due course.  You can follow on twitter: @element115coin
