Bitcoin Forum

I will consider all offers. See http://ixcoin.org for details.

Why do ixcoins exist ?
I don't see what they bring to the party at all. 21 million ixcoins by 2015, sounds like someone was unhappy with missing the start of bitcoins and want their own personal currency. At that rate of generation/distribution all will be held by very few people.

You are going to set precedent for the exchange rate here.

I will offer .00000001 for 1000 Ixcoin. Keep mining, fella.

I will offer you 0.0001BTC if you stop mining that.

For anyone selling IXC for BTC: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=36315.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=36315.0)

We are mocking it, not offering to buy it, you two-bit con man.

A conman trying to pay YOU? Hmm... that's a new one  ::)

How are you offering to pay me? And why? Oh wait, you need people to buy in and prop up your half a million worthless coins to portray the illusion they're worth something. You are offering to split the blockchain and divert resources that would be better served on the actual bitcoin project vs. some worthless clone you whipped up with other people's hard work.

FYI DoubleC just setup a BTC<>IXC exchange https://ixchange.bitparking.com (https://ixchange.bitparking.com)

I will buy all you've got for .003 BTC per IXcoin.

Yup, this is another get rich quick scam. Nice try but better luck next time.

The only valuable bits are bitcoin bits! Everyone knows that, huh?

and bacon bits.

never forget that.

I offer 3 satoshis for 10k ixc

Can someone with more insight please reply to this?

What would happen if plenty more of these clones pop up, each with a shorter maturity than the last one?
Was it was supposed to happen? What that implies is kind of scary...  :-\

Well, you can read the

"Scam! Cheater! There's no point in this!"
vs
"You are just a jealous bitcoin early adopter! Easy mining! Easy profit!"

discussion at the offtopic section (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=9.0).

Clones are inevitable. Some people say that bitcoin will benefit from other crypto currencies, others say that we should focus all of our efforts in bitcoin instead of creating N different currencies.
It will be interesting to see if a real competitor comes up with some good improvements on bitcoin's weaknesses. Ixcoin is not the case. I personally don't like it because it doesn't have a real purpose, besides profit.

Thanks didn't find that for some reason. I guess the search is case sensitive here.

I missed out as an early adopter for bitcoin and am too tight to buy them so I modified the Bitcoin code, renamed it, made the 21million coins mineable in 2 hrs, I mined all the coins and would now like to start selling them, is anyone interested ?

The search doesn't find anything here...

Heres something interesting.

1. Ixcoin launches
2. Bitcoin price steadily moves up
3. Profit

Thats the case right now, coincidentally since the launch of ixcoins ;)

i think clones will become the new ponzi. instead of 20 new ponzies hitting these forums every day, we'll see 20 new bitcoin clones per day each with the basic pyramid idea of 'get in early, don't get left holding the bag at the end'.

Can't believe people are really wasting GPU cycles on this let alone paying for something which will never have any utility.

(Besides 'Nasakioto' who mined nearly everything within a few hours & hands them out as bounties like candy)

Wow, I can't believe my luck, I am so interested. I really do feel like investing in royalecraigcoins.
But I have some serious questions before I consider investing anything of value
 - Can I buy royalecraigcoins using paypal ? What about dirt, air, fire or maybe even water ?
 - How many grains of royalecraigcoins would I expect to get for a half-full packet of gravel (there may be a small bit of belly button lint mixed in it, don't ask it's a long story) ?
 - Which would give me a better exchange rate a litre of Gravel, Nitrogen (I'm keeping the Oxygen), yellow swamp fire gas or raw sewerage ?
 - If I decide at a later date to downgrade from royalecraigcoins to say bitcoins, what would be the expected exchange rate in says a years time ?
    (based upon today's valuation of zero BTC for a million royalecraigcoins).
 - In about 10 years time do you think that I could buy a pizza for 10,000 royalecraigcoins or would I need to use a proper currency like bitcoins ?
 - If I loose all the royalecraigcoins that you sell me today, say for a random reason like because I become even more stupid, at a later date could I but more ?

Well starting at the point of through of disillusionment and being in at the start of the plateau of productivity isn't such a bad idea after all  :o ;D
