this topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5112108.0 is your main line?

It’s saddened me to see that no credit is given to Grin, from which you forked.

Indeed; this is essentially BitGrin (Grin + Bitcoin emission + mining tax) minus the Grin acknowledgement.

When asked earlier what distinguishes this project from BitGrin, they claimed it has no mining tax, which it now does.

There are key differences between Epic and Grin/Bitgrin, and this difference will increase as we progress on development. And again, we do acknowledge Grin in our white paper and soon to go public GitHub.

The budget emission is 8.8% first year and reduces 1.1% every year until zero. This is relatively much more modest than some coins and will help ensure we can continue developing and promoting. The ultimate goal is to transition from using a foundation to a decentralized autonomous organization.

it must be a good project, I need a discord

any premine?

The description of the project looks interesting and unique. I wanted to look into the code, but github section on the site is empty. Are you going to open it at some time, or it is intentionally? Still worth to add this info on the site

any premine?

I didn't think RandomX was ready just yet, so when would the release date for Epic be?

any premine?

No, no premine. Also no ninja or instamine, we have a smooth emission that starts at zero.

So much for no premine already 1500+ blocks already mined and over 300k coins in circulation so much for fair mining

https://explorer.epic.tech all found on here as found from telegram page

it's mainnet now ?

if its mainnet then we just got screwed and im calling it quits it had better be testnet otherwise the mass is probably gonna follow suit and bye bye epic cash

What is happening with this Epic coin?
Is mainnet released yet or not?

I remember I saw some old Epic coin long time ago, but I am not sure it is same Epic like this.

Here's a moral bug:

https://www.epic.tech/ fails to acknowledge use of Grin's codebase...

Feel free to send bug bounty to

https://grin-tech.org/general_funding

Grin is properly credited in GitLab and white paper.

By having a flexible cipher policy, we can take advantage of opportunities in the mining marketplace to acquire the greatest possible hash power. As certain kinds of hardware stop being economical on other chains, we can make room for them on Epic at a lower price, increasing their return on capital while delivering hash power to the network at a lower marginal cost. As other kinds of ciphers stop being effective, we can diminish or eliminate their allotment on Epic, making room for newer providers.

Section 2.1.4 of the technical whitepaper reads:

Can you provide any practical examples of such a policy working in any other PoW cryptocurrencies?

What are the potential attack vectors introduced by having a flexible cipher policy, and how are they mitigated?

1. Not at the moment (sorry, very busy with launch preparations), but I believe there are a few projects with a similar system.

2. We think a flexible policy reduces risk. The normal case of a static policy is a subset of the dynamic policy case. I.e, we can always implement a static policy via the dynamic framework.  However, we also can respond quickly to changing circumstances in mining and security, which others cannot.

epic-miner-cuda only for cuda 10.1?

mining start ot its only beta ? when exchange ? and how much memory need for cards ?

Please tell me how to withdraw mined epic coins from icemining.ca  .

What is the "other listener option" ??

Hello, it's a 'http' option...I think that will be the only option with this pool for the time being, because it is much easier and almost instant as it goes through the http address...e.g. you specify your ip address and port and the pool sends the coins directly to your wallet....Please note that we are expecting a new GUI wallet for Epic cash any day now, that will simplify the process of sending and managing transactions...the pool is almost ready to start sending payments to miners, it's been work in progress for some time now...

BTW I am a community member that has been involved with the project for some time now, and can vouch that this is a good project, my favorite right now, with some great people involved who genuinely care, and want to promote some good causes not just have the best tech around...Good luck..

Do I need an external IP address to get the coins thorugh http ??

You need your own publicly visible IP address to receive coins through HTTP Listener. Learn more about our new GUI wallet and how to receive with HTTP Listener here: https://medium.com/epic-cash/epic-cash-gui-wallet-tutorial-3992690f9d9

I downloaded GUI wallet but when I want to "Open Http listener to recieve" i get an info like this : "Listener is now running on localhost:3415. However your ip is not reachable by the internet user. Try transaction file"

Does it mean I can't receive the Epic coins with my current internet provider?

You can check if port 3415 is open and view your IP address at CanYouSeeMe.org (http://CanYouSeeMe.org)

ON canyouseeme.org i got response : "Error: I could not see your service on xxx.xxx.25.47 on port (3415)
Reason: Connection refused"

Good evening. Any plans of joniing crypto expos? It would be great to meet you there! WDYT?

Hello jacskluter, please visit our community at https://t.me/EpicCash , you may get your answer faster in there...

I do not know why you are forcing your community on Telegram and some other channels and neglecting the Bitcointalk forum. Bitcointalk is certainly the largest mining site and the largest crypto base. As such, it deserves much more attention. How many people have heard of your Telegram chat and how much of the Bitcointalk forum? I think that the active thread on the Bitcointalk forum is of great importance and there must be constant support in its direction.

Hello kaszebe1, you CAN receive it through http, but first you will need to open your port 3415 (I have two additional ports forwarded also for mining and transactions = 3414, 3416)....

The way to do that is through your isp router, go to its login page which is usually 192.168.0.1 and then find port forwarding rules, and forward port 3415...and those two I mentioned if you need them...Then check with canyouseeme.org if it is open...

You also need to have your epic node/server running on the same machine where your wallet is, and to change epic-miner.toml. If you are using windows, it's located in this folder C:\Users\YourUserName\.epic\main...

Find #host IP for wallet listener, change to "0.0.0.0" to receive epics
and change it to api_listen_interface = "0.0.0.0"

Now you can receive your lovely Epic cash...

I hope this helps.

Without a community, this project has no chance.
Their translators were not paid. Very negative point to the project.

Thanks for your help.

Now i see on canyouseeme.org a statement : "Success: I can see your service on xxx.xxx.25.47 on port (3415)
Your ISP is not blocking port 3415"

But i still cant withdraw epics from icemining.ca . When i put my address with port and a correct password the button "submit payment" still remains inactive .  I have a confirmed balance of 0.25 epic on icemining.ca.

So what exactly is the algorithm that you use to mine this coin? I see that it favors CPU but what is the actual algorithm to use to mine it?

The most important question is why do we need EPIC?  Do they have a serious platform and options for real use?  By the way, some leading exchanges oppose anonymous cryptocurrencies.  How do Epic developers intend to solve this problem?

This coin sounds interesting to me.  I would like to know more about it and what is the best way to mine it?

2.3.1-1  Updated 9-17-19  NOTE: We are now Live!!

Epic Server 2.3.1
This release improves the block propagation situation.

We used to propagate a newly produced only to a limited number of peers, now we propagate to everyone.

IMPORTANT: We also introduced a new configuration option in the server: header_sync_timeout. This allows you to configure when to start the epic server synchronization mode: this mode forces your local server to fetch the latest header from the peers.

This means that you now ARE REQUIRED to add the header_sync_timeout option under [server] in your epic-server.toml when updating your server, or you need to delete and generate your file again. The recommended value for this option is 10.

Though we added this option for quality of life, with the improvement on block propagation we believe it should not be necessary to change its default.

==================================

Epic Miner 2.3.1
This release introduces a quality of life change: now the miner will only receive jobs from the server when it is the turn of the configured algorithm to mine. Otherwise, the miner will remain idle.

How much does the board receive from this?  And why is it that there exist only 2 people on said board?  Why hasn't any of that Epic yet been distributed to those responsible for developing the platform to this point?  Why is this "community project" being governed by one person who is now on medical leave?

   Thanks. do not tell me I chose https://www.chainrift.com/trading?coinpair=EPIC/BTC& who traded there? these exchanges are unfamiliar to me. recommendations?

How much does the board receive from this?  And why is it that there exist only 2 people on said board?  Why hasn't any of that Epic yet been distributed to those responsible for developing the platform to this point?  Why is this "community project" being governed by one person who is now on medical leave?

bitgrin/epic minus dev tax ,surely will attract many miners.
dump from tax scared some miners.

Now only 1 person running the show.  Legal representation, treasurer, and primary investor all resigned from the board.  Leaving just Max.  So it's a democratic vote of 1 on how the dev tax is distributed....

Wayan Garvey, aka Max Freeman, has conned scores of people into working for the promise of pay that he's since defaulted on.  He's appropriated investments intended for this purely community volunteer project for his own personal investments and habits (e.g. expensive opioid habit).   And now that Epic hasn't launched into the stratosphere, he's on medical leave.  Whether or not that's to attend to his opioid habit, his frail sense of self (psych ward), or if it's an excuse to deflect from the fact that he doesn't have the balls to face the music (the project is bankrupt), is anyone's guess.  

This guy defamed Grin and its developers.  He's been only slightly less derisive about Beam.  It wouldn't be long before their followers jumped ship for the Epic Cash Express.  He claimed to have visited Richard Branson and other interested investors at Necker Island, to have been in talks with Hoskinson and Antonopoulos, and to have a standing personal invitation from the president of Sierra Leone for all his philanthropic work in the country.  According to Garvey, Epic would take 2nd position in crypto market cap, behind Bitcoin, within the next 2 years.  It's been a bullshit stream of epic proportions coming from this guy's mouth, and people have been buying it.  Why?  It has nothing to do with decentralization, privacy, empowering the marginalized, or defeating the banks. It's all got to do with Lambos.  But what's new in crypto land?

The silver lining to this all is that the project is already proving to be such an epic failure that Garvey's 8.8% dev tax won't amount to much more than a BTC or 2.  Good riddance to Epic Cash.

Epic coin getting ready for that epic failure right about now

Is it now? People complain about a Dev tax but don't mind getting shafted by projects with inflation that never ends. Epic Cash will be fine and does not rely on just one person. The catalyst was one person's idea but the vision will grow. Fudding a project with no ICO, No Pre-mine and supports privacy is tasteless.

Here's Randy Hilarski, the guy who has been using his brand media channels to shill Epic Cash.  Of course, Randy has been working with Wayan Garvey on this project, as he has on previous projects, so has a vested interest in seeing Epic pump.  

The catalyst's (Wayan Garvey's) vision was to build a token off of the sweat of others' unpaid labor, to collect a dev tax for co-ordinating the unpaid labor, and then to hyper-inflate the value of that token so he could dump it off for millions in fiat.  He was in discussions with the treasurer and the whitepaper author over how they might develop stablecoin and DEX interaction to manipulate the value of Epic Cash.  Before Epic launched and disappointed, Wayan had hopes of developing a stablecoin (EUSD) and a DEX (EDEX).  That same catalyst screwed over people that money was owed to after they'd put in significant amounts of work.  He took MethodX's  (a "friend" from the toner industry) $100k investment and then channeled it into other projects, such as Covario, with which Wayan intended to take advantage of DEXs to pump Epic Cash value.  If I'm not mistaken, Covario is a project that Todd Lewis (Brick Abode), a lead paid developer for Epic, is also a part of.

Wayan Garvey has a history of fraud and shady business dealings.  Epic wasn't the first time he took advantage of workers leaving them unpaid.  At his Impro Group office in Moldova he fired dozens of IT people without pay, and then moved their jobs to the lower paid alternative in Mudurai, India. Where, incidentally, much of the "volunteer" programming for the Epic project is being done.  He downsized in the Philippines, firing much of his staff and then raised frivolous criminal suits against them when they sought legal remedies for unrightful termination and and failure to pay wages after having worked for him for years, building his Philippines company from the ground up.  

His Impro Group warehouse burned burned down twice, netting him nice earnings about which there are those who will go on the record stating that Garvey bragged about sticking it to the insurance companies and walking away considerably richer.  He has previous sexual harassment suits as head of that organization.  He's been embroiled in civil suits raised by Xerox for encouraging contract violation and purchase of materials sourced through violated contracts with Xerox.  

What Garvey doesn't have is a history in crypto.  He only got involved in mid-2017 because of the windfall profits he saw everyone making, then let his greed get the best of him and lost his ass when the market dropped out.  He has no background relevant to this industry except for running a toner trading company that his father started.  And he has some friends in the financial sector that can assist him in screwing an undeveloped exchange infrastructure.  

Only months ago he was on about how large investors from respectable VC firms, as well as Richard Branson and company, we getting on board (he actually bragged about hanging out with them on Necker Island!) and how a large pool of investment would carry the committed Epic staff into next year and onward into layer 2 developments, Epic has more recently been stiffing translators for languages like Bengali, Igbo, and Persian, as well as the whitepaper author for month's work in research, authoring and advising.  This guy, Wayan Garvey (aka Max Freeman), is the sole recipient of the dev tax and unquestioned authority on everything that happens at Epic.

And now, where is he?  On medical leave?  Leaving you to tell everyone that they can't expect pay for their work because he's to spineless to come out and admit that he lied to everyone?  And to tell us that the project doesn't rely on him, when he is clearly the linchpin who everyone answers to.  Or is it because under all this pressure he's gone deeper down the opioid rabbit hole, leaving him without the facilities to push this project forward (but at least with MethodX's money to pay for those expensive ketamine and dilaudid shots)?

Who exactly is on the dev team?  What real developments are on the roadmap?  And how will they get paid?  What token value is needed to bring paid employees (assuming their contracts would actually be honored) on?  What is Wayan Garvey's cut out of the dev tax?  Why did the lead legal representation and the treasurer resign from the board?  And where do you fit into all of this?

Say what you will, but it seems like your championing of this project in the face of those who have already been taken advantage of, your disingenuousness, and the lies you're promulgating are what are truly tasteless.  

Dramalicious!
Looks like there is one seriously butt hurt individual creating multiple accounts and burning all of his former team members.
So many new accounts created just to bring this coin down ... for now...

*Analysis and Spoiler Alert!*
Project looks legit, despite the drama. NOTHING discussed in this thread invalidates the model, the tech or the usability of Epic Cash, the drama is just a show to keep the price down.
Looking at the difficulty people appear to be mining the crap out of Epic Cash, and looking at exchanges people are accumulating the crap out of Epic Cash at bargain prices!
Best part, the public does not give two shits about the drama, only that tasty difference between the bought and sold price.

Well played drama queens, please continue to entertain us!
*golf clap*

Full Disclosure - YOU KNOW I AM BUYING  ;D

I'm assuming this is John/JLong.  For what it's worth, from what I've witnessed, he is a standup guy.  

He was angry with me that I made a stink about being screwed.  Apparently, speaking up about mistreatment is tantamount to burning team members. Standing up for what is right be damned, let's vilify whistelblowers for damaging share value.  

I don't know who has the multiple accounts to which you've referred.  But if being butt hurt means being disgruntled over getting stiffed for 20 grand, then I am very butt hurt.  Many of my team members got screwed, too.  Yet instead of calling out the real culprit for our misfortune,  you blame people like myself for not keeping our mouth shut.  

By the sounds of it, though, I'm not the only one in this thread that is butt hurt...

It's likely that the individual who wrote this post was also guaranteed pay which he/she never received.  They have put a lot of work into the project and are hoping to reclaim that sunken time and effort via mining rewards.  Now all that EC they've mined is worth dick.  Whoever is mining EC is, of course, accumulating the crap out of it.  To sell at the going rate would mean selling at less than what it cost to mine.  But then who is buying?

Drama aside, why would someone invest in a project that has no dev team or road map, while other MimbleWimble projects have ambitious road maps and deep talented pools of developers?  For that matter, why not just BitGrin?  It's essentially the same as EC, except that EC has a slightly different emission schedule and some added mining algs.  BitGrin, as far as I know, hasn't yet screwed over contributors.  Nor does it have nearly 9% of its dev tax going to the one person who was responsible for screwing contributors over, does it?

Nice try at masking your disappointment, MajorMiner.  Kudos for dismissing unethical business practices as a pesky footnote to the ascension of EC token value.   *golf clap*

Not sure what world you're living in, but the public clearly does give two shits. The price and net hash have dropped off significantly. Literally no one is buying. All the volume is faked on the two Chinese exchanges that have listed it. Chainrift delisted it because no one was buying.

No I am not John, I am just a guy who is enjoying this project, and sees its potential.
I dont know all the details of the drama that ensued, and to be honest I dont really care.
I am one of those people who likes and respects peoples work without digging into their personal stuff - that list is long - Hemingway, Tesla, Machiavelli and many others...
Good Luck to you in your future endeavors.

You're completely ignorant to the fact that their personal life is affecting the dev funds and the long term life of this project. Good luck with your investing. And yes I do know of the two exchanges that currently have epic listed. If you watch the transactions they're almost all for prices that are not in the order books. It's very well known that the volume is faked on Citex and Bihodl. Open your eyes. There's absolutely 0 for volume other than the people dumping into the old buy orders.

Believe me when I say I want this to succeed as I also have a big bag from mining, but at this point I've written it off because of how useless this project is in comparison to the competition. There's plenty other projects out there with trustworthy dev's that do the exact same thing, on top of that they aren't clone coins like this. It took them weeks to fix simple problems with the API because it's not their code. The joys of cloning someone else's work and calling it your own.

You're adding Max Freeman to the list of the likes of Hemingway and Tesla?  His work amounted to giving BitGrin a slightly different emission schedule and some additional mining algorithms and branding this new groundbreaking work as his own idea.  Then promoting it as having substantial investment behind it, while giving community members the chance to contribute and get a piece of the pie fresh out of the oven.  Only problem was, there was no substantial investment, and the community members didn't get paid.  So, workers from India, West Africa, and Eastern Europe were, ultimately, stiffed.  I never agreed to work for future speculative coin.  I, instead, had an agreement for monthly pay, in fiat, for my work.  I too, ultimately, was stiffed.

Is this work you like and respect?  What about this project do you enjoy?  Who is working on it?  What are they working on?  Why aren't any of those at the helms of this project speaking out on its behalf?  What defining characteristics imbues it with potential not shared by BitGrin, Grin, or Beam?  Please, do tell.

I do not know why you are forcing your community on Telegram and some other channels and neglecting the Bitcointalk forum. Bitcointalk is certainly the largest mining site and the largest crypto base. As such, it deserves much more attention. How many people have heard of your Telegram chat and how much of the Bitcointalk forum? I think that the active thread on the Bitcointalk forum is of great importance and there must be constant support in its direction.

OK Boomer  :D This is Bitcoin Maximalist forum, filled with crusty trolls most of whom were around Bitcoin but managed not to make money from it  :'( Now they hang out here and give advice  ::) Telegram is dynamic, clean and there are channels for every crypto that are dedicated 100 percent to that crypto. Here you can read crusty trolls and people who dis mimble wimble.  Huggles!

Why should we go on telegram this is freedom of speech on here unlike telegram admin just removes you

Ms.Fungible, that is typical of all projects, Telegram is the most focused medium. Less distraction more idea flow less blah blah blah. Bitcointalk is a good place to chat about politics and how great Bitcoin is/was and crypto economics and how great Bitcoin is/was and Bitcoin forks and John McAfees The Dickening and how great Bitcoin is/was and so much more of the same  ::)

Epic Cash definitely has good things in the works. Glad to see people from all places joining in!

Sup guys,

fot those who want actually get some information about project - escaping whole unnecessary drama made by raging kids - get in to telegram. https://t.me/EpicCash

If anyone wanted to try some mining - especially solo on randomX (CPU) - now it's really good moment, diff its quite low.

Its raining blocks!
Here is a snap just from my gaming rig grinding Epic Cash
https://i.imgur.com/zSQMBi1.jpg

Awesome, $30 worth of Epic Trash!  Of all the MW coins, you're banking on the one that has zero development to reveal its genius design to the masses, and then for it not to get hammered by the SEC for Wayan Garvey's brazen violations.  While you are investing on the long shot of long shots, why not send some of that shit into a televangelist to reserve you a spot in paradise?

Dear Here41Reason aka onyabike,
You got my attention accusing me of being someone else. My truth is far more boring, my real name is Phil, and in addition to my work I am also heavily involved in philanthropy, volunteer work, blood donation at Stanford Blood Center, that kind of thing, which is why I chose handle Phylantrop. Get it? If you want proof, or if anyone here wants proof of my identity we can meet and chat at my favorite coffee joint Philz Coffee in Palo Alto (yeah I admit I like Philz partially because it sounds like my name).
In the interests of more disclosure since you are clearly fascinated by my persona and my involvement with Epic. I first found out about the Epic Cash project at Burning Man, but I did not get around to doing anything about it until after it launched in September. Me and a few of my friends are actively mining and buying Epic Cash. I am not soliciting your opinion on this since you made it clear.
I don't know you, but I find your behavior inhumanely reprehensible. As I said, you got my attention, I guess its my turn to find out who you really are, so I will reach out to the Epic Cash community and find out.
In the meantime, you are spamming the crap out of this forum, you are bullying project members, and you are making obviously libelous accusations. I do not understand why your accounts are not banned and your messages are not erased, but I do understand why people prefer cleaner channels like Telegram where parasites like you cant spread their hate and bully them.

Bye

Wow, and apparently Bitcoin Forum does not care if criminals try to dox people here. No wonder people prefer Telegram.

yea people don't get doxed unless they are cunts lol why else would you put that time in effort if say this wayan arsehole was a nice guy?

Anyways it seems your in on this scam or getting some kind of kick back from it unless ofcourse you are wayan. You dirty epic cash BBC sucking sympathiser

It's obvious to see who are shills in here and telegram isn't the place for a debatable chat when admin is a epic cash b1tch who's going to block you the minute you start debunking and making sense of this scam, you can't block the truth here and that's why you cowards go telegram where you can dictate everything.

Go back to sucking BBC with wayan.

What does Covario (http://www.covar.io/) have to do with Epic and Wayan Garvey's ongoing fraudulent activities? Wayan bragged about how he'd invested several million dollars in it and how Mark Banner (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mbanner/) and Todd Lewis (https://www.linkedin.com/in/toddglewis2/) would be furnishing him some exclusive rights to use their platform to manipulate the value of his token.

The veracity of Wayan's assertions, given his track record of dishonesty and outlandish claims,  are anyone's guess.  Perhaps Banner and Lewis could shed some light on the topic.  A screenshot of Wayan's boasting and signs of more statements of criminal intent to come can be found on the following Reddit link:

What a good drama here. I have been scammed by quadrigacx and maybe could have been scammed by epic cash. I stopped mining after a few hours, seeing too much difficulty and bad otc price Max was hoping for on telegram. When i saw he wanted 1 dollar for an epic i knew diff was too high. I thought about buying. Lucky me i was lazy, wallet was a nightmare. I still have 2 epic on icemining pool though, lol.

It's pretty sad seeing all of you saying bad things. But i understand the anger.

I remember about the 2k russians that were ready to mine lol. I was one of the first members in telegram and remember the gpu giveaway but never participated because i didnt want to give personnal data. I remember methodx giveaway, for Usa members only.

In the end, i hate you have all been scammed.

Was it Emma the nice girl that was here from the start? Is she real? Lol she s the only one you never talked about.

Well drama aside, difficulty is way down because Monero went RandonmX on November 30th so even solo mining is an option. After a rough start, Epic Cash is alive and well on Telegram without all the trolls. I pity the guy who is reduced to trolling here while trying to scrape a living in Indonesia, so much anger and unfulfilled dreams, running out of places he can call home. Maybe if he was a better human being his life would not be so miserable.

In the end, time will show who was right. For now, Epic Cash is slowly growing, adding features, adding miners, getting gradually bigger.
Have a great life!

P.S. How would you get scammed by Epic Cash? You are not giving them money. Just like any other crypto mineable crypto you mine it and it may go up or down in value.

If this isn't Wayan, then it's one of Wayan's fluffers.  So he named a coffee shop in Palo Alto.  Wayan lived in Palo Alto.  He's trying to take shots at me about "scraping a living" in Indonesia.  I'm reduced to living 2 blocks from the beach in Bali, working a 10-hour work week, while "Phylantrop" is volunteering at the blood bank in Palo Alto, or exchanging a new pair of shoes with his wife for a blowjob in Las Vegas, or whichever glorious life in the US he'd insinuate I should envy.

I can't tell that "Epic is slowly growing", given its purported and, surely, inflated trading volume is around $2000 for the last 24 hours.  At the inflated numbers its market cap is still only $50,000.  It's adding features how?  With a few token part-time volunteer coders who have made working on Grin code for Epic Cash a hobby?  This "currency" is already, for all practical purposes, dead.  Now we just need for  Wayan to stop all his bragging about suicide and follow his coin into the eternal shadows. 

Wayan is a slovenly cripple who can hardly touch his toes.  Sucking his own cock is even less likely than his wife sucking his cock.

Like I've told you before, Phylantrop is Wayan Garvey.  He's afraid stick around as Max.  Look, I caught the bone smoker on an XMR channel trying to hobnob with the miners and lure them over to the dark side.  He disappeared from there quickly, then started whining at me on Telegram that I need to stop blasting him.

Hey Beautiful People,
Just popping in to say hello!
Epic Cash and Mimblewimble is where its all at  ;D

RandomX solo mining still strong, gaming rig continues to solve blocks.

Yeah!

Somehow we're to believe that this veteran who before posted about mining Bitcoin back in 2013 stops posting for more than 2 years, only to come back to almost exclusively shill Epic Cash.  Not Grin, Beam, or BitGrin.  No, the copycat runt bastard of MW coins.  Of course, in typical 'look at me' Wayan Garvey little man syndrome fashion, he makes a detour to drop into a thread about being a world citizen, to state  "have traveled a lot (missing just one continent)..."  More accurate would have been, "I've fucked over people from every continent but 1."

Sup Scrote,
So if you see through your dank troll haze I will elucidate. Yes I really am a veteran, and yes I go years before 2013, and yeah I havent posted much on bitcointalk in ages. Bitcointalk even back in the old days was becoming a shitpile and an unregulated feeder for trolls (sounds familiar?), people were trying to shit on Bitcoin and pimp various shitcoins. At some point bitcointalk attracted trolls that even outdank you which is not easy since you are a top shelf troll albeit fucking clueless and technologically retarded.
I did Bitcoin, and later switched to Monero, Ether and DOGE, but I was no longer on this forum, again largely because all the real shit went down in much more secure and private environments, notably without people like you and without poor annoying no-coiners who only talked but did not do. Bitcoin remained solid, hugely profitable and to this day fun. Ditto with Monero, tilting at the ASIC windmills aside, although I am liking the flavor of their switch to RandomX for semi obvious reasons. Ether was interesting then was DAO and shit got stupid, plus Vitalik is a single point of fail with too much control that I did not and do not like. DOGE was stupid and entertaining and fun and several times made me a shitload of money, plus we send a Jamaican bobsleigh team to freaking Sochi which was funny at the time. So yeah, I am a veteran.
I got into Epic Cash because I saw potential in the project because of limited emission, multi algo,small cap and low mining difficulty.  Frankly I do not give a fuck who started the project, thats not the point. What I see and what I know is that it will make me money, more play money. Why Epic Cash? Because Grin has infinite emission, Beam I have reasons not to trust, and if you have to ask questions about other coins in this space you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. There are a few of us, OGs from the old Bitcoin days, who are playing with Epic Cash, none of us are shilling we dont have to, especially not here. Despite the trolling, despite the bitching and moaning, and actually thanks in great part to your efforts, Epic Cash is going to make money for many of us playing with it. None of this will benefit you since you made it clear from your posts that you are a clueless cryptonewb and a nocoiner, who doesnt have a finger on the MW pulse. Glad you have a hobby though, hobbies are important.

Agreed.  Of course, it's no mystery that I want Epic Cash to fail.  More specifically, I want to see Wayan Garvey humiliated.  That aside, Epic Cash circulating supply is already bigger than Bitgrin's, while Bitgrin's trading volume, provided you at all trust the exchange stats, is 100x Epic Cash's.  If the two coins are for all practical purposes identical, why buy Epic Cash if it has such a smaller community and much less liquidity?

Vitalik is a single point of fail with too much control, but then no problems with Wayan Garvey running the Epic Cash shitshow?  How does Bitgrin's locus of power compare to Epic Cash's?

Granted, I'm a cryptonewb nocoiner, or whatever other crypto-pejoratives MajorMiner would like to throw at me.  But I don't think I need to grok the finer nuances of mining to make an informed judgement call on the viability of Epic Cash as an investment or to identify incongruities in MajorMiner's line of reasoning.  

One other thing - as a fan of Hemmingway, surely MajorMiner can empathize with the primal urge for vengeance. Perhaps she, too, would seek revenge were she wronged as I've been.

Hey man! Were you on St.Eligus mining pool way back then?

Sup Scrote,
you used the word "grok" like you knew what it meant and for that you get a small measure of respect, even though you clearly do not grok crypto. BTW, if you look at ALL MimbleWimble coins right now, all of their bitcointalk forums are infested with trolls  ::) how many of them are you?
I looked at Bitgrin and I didnt go with them because they are truly a lazy single algo fork of Grin with a 10 percent dev fee and HODL centric mentality. Their business angle is a dead end. Epic Cash is young, more agile, still small, multi algo, clearly evolved version of priors with vastly more potential. I dont give a shit about the dev wallet, I buy my own toys. Furthermore, once the coin gets some value I will share/invest some of my own coins into the project to drive and promote it.

BTW, MajorMiner, if you aren't in fact intimately tied in with Wayan, I apologize for acting as though you were, or that you were him.  Only you know the answer to that, but I'll man up to my mistakes if I've made them.

     I am not a lawyer, never had the inclination for that profession, but the way I look at it, even if nefarious plans were laid unless they materialized and they clearly have not, then essentially its all a work of fiction - just talk. Throughout the course of my career I've been in many meetings in large companies where lofty ideas with dubious legal and ethical ramifications were freely discussed, but never materialized, however out of many of them manifested creative directions within the letter of the law.

     I clearly separate what is talk and what is action. As far as personal accountability, I believe that our actions good and bad have consequences. I am not Max, but like many many others I am actively involved with making Epic Cash a better project. I am not here to judge any of the founders of the project, any personal disagreements between the founders should be handled by them and not be dragged out before the public - thats just my opinion. Two wrongs do not make a right, doxing and going after person, his family and friends and anyone else you feel hurt by, is flat out illegal and makes you look like an obsessive psycho - stuff like this does not rally people to your cause and will not make your life better. Also, if there are financial grievances between the investors, by trying to destroy the project out of personal vendetta severely limits the chances of an amicable financial resolution.

     Almost a decade ago I spent a lot of time and energy helping the Bitcoin project, and later I did the same with several other early cryptos. I never engaged in pump and dump, I never evangelize what I do not believe in. I always had skin in the game, took the risks some of which paid off. In crypto and in my professional career I never shilled, I only got involved with projects that offered incremental value and tried to avoid cannibalizing the market.

     I believe Epic Cash project has unique advantages. I saw you cross-posted one of my opinions about another Mimblewimble project being a dead end - notice I did not go on their forums to troll them, I respect what they are trying to do but through the lens of my experience I see some shortcomings resulting in my opinion. I come here to state my honest opinion, and today in the Mimblewimble space Epic Cash is a very solid contender, partially because of the three algo cocktail, partially because of limited emissions, and partially because of the next few things in the pipe that will further improve the privacy and usability aspects. I like the team of people that are currently working on the project, I like the community that is evolving around the project. I live the overall energy of the Mimblewimble community and I have a tremendous respect for ALL of its participants.

     As far as apologies go, as much as I want to believe in its sincerity, this thread is a half-truths and profanity ladened accusatory mess and a deliberate distraction leveraged against all the honest people who are participating in the Epic Cash project... The Epic Cash community is busy with the project, not with distractions which is why so few of us bother to come here.

This coin is a utter shit !

It looks like toally amateurish early beta version and in addition the daemon even don't want to synchronize !

another driveby  ::)

Maybe you could use some of that same objectivity when you were talking about another coin - here is your own quote: "Are you serious ?   What you expected after few months ? Biggest exchanges and everyday ATH ?"


Anyway, thank you for your insightful contribution and Merry Christmas  ::)

Peace on Earth!

At the beginnig it worked much better. The synchronization was much faster.  Now it stops after few minutes of downloading.

BTW .. After so long period of time since my previous post i would expect better development. At least to integrate epic server and wallet into one GUI package.

I regret waste of resources i spent to mine it ... Now i cant even withdraw beacuse i can't sync damn wallet ...

I sincerely want bad things to happen to Wayan Garvey.  That is separate from you.  I can sincerely apologize to you without apologizing for what I've said about Wayan or Epic Cash.

Separating Wayan Garvey, Epic Cash, and the work I did for Epic Cash that wasn't paid, all from the public forum, only serves Epic Cash.

The project was built on scamming people.  Period.  We obviously have a difference in opinion in how we approach this.  Your opinion seems to be 'fuck it, let's move on.'  I don't think it should be allowed to move on if those who got the project off the ground were not compensated what they were promised.  That includes me.  So, yes, I will make a stink.  I would make a stink if it weren't me, because the fact would remain that any successes forthcoming would be in part due to the theft of others' labor.  

Beyond that, 8.8% of the 1st year's mining rewards and 7.7% of year 2's mining rewards go to the very same person who screwed me and other people over.  Nobody, not you or any of the other do-gooder Epic Cash people can do anything about the fact that at the end of year 2 Wayan Garvey, the guy who stole from people he's known for half his life to get to this point in Epic Cash, will be the only person with access to the 15% of circulating supply in the form of dev tax.  And that's not counting the coins that he's also mining. Furthermore, if he starts getting access to funds, he is very likely to employ high-powered trading bots to inflate the currency so he can then dump the remainder of his holdings, as he's specifically said he'd do.

I don't think it should be allowed to move on if those who got the project off the ground were not compensated what they were promised.

Thank you for checking in and saying hello, actually the project is going quite well  ;D

We are getting more miners especially CPU crowd since Epic Cash is the only Mimblewimble crypto that can be mined with CPU.
The overall trolling of our project is pretty much consistent with what most newly emerging cryptos face, its baseless and criminally-obscessively-stalky variety.
We are in the process of adding more exchanges, features, wallets, and user-friendliness , our devs and volunteers are staying bery busy, while not having the highest dev tax by far (at 7.77% and dropping annually by 1.11%) we are 4th lowest in the Mimblewimble space).
Epic Cash  has solid proven market resistance, thanks to folks quietly accumulating, and we are poised for gradual continuing rise in price.
So in terms of tech, teamwork, user base, and current low price I believe we are the best value in the Mibmblewimble space.

Thanks again  ;D

A popular website called Deadcoins listed you as a scam shit coin. Have you noticed it yet? I thought Epic cash will be a valid and better altcoin but are you scamming now? I would recommend everyone, don't waste your time in this coin. It seems they are paying people to comment brainless positive comments.

Sophomoric humor from someone who spammed classless rubbish 143 times and got 1 pity merit does not mean much, but lets entertain the idiot also out of pity.
Judging by your commentaries, in addition to being socially retarded, you are also technologically impaired (likely a no-coiner), so I will try to use short words except for mimblewimble...
In the world of private crypto there are really only two directions of true privacy coins - Monero type crypto and Mimblewimble type crypto.
Monero is old school and has its own advantages and problems, but they are established and respected.
Mimblewimble is newer, lighter, and has tremendous potential.
Out of all Mimblewimble cryptos - Epic Cash is the best and most versatile implementation in terms of long term value.
Currently on three exchanges with more on the way.
Several wallet options with more on the way.
Dev team with tremendous volunteer support, easy to follow instructions for new users, tutorial videos, etc...
Super affordable to get started in.
Bottom line - private, fungible, flexible mining CPU/GPU/ASIC, smart and responsible emission schedule, etc...

Enjoy Responsibly  ;D

Lol flexible mining best mimble wimble coin very laughable grin changes there algo so ant miners ect don't take over the coin community and become centralised, what's epic cash gonna do nothing and die.

So many meaningless words, so little sense, so much bullshit.  ;D
Why are you so butt hurt buddy?  ::)
Why do you keep playing that same bullshit song?  ???
Today, Epic Cash is alive and well, with new miners coming onboard all the time, couple of GUI wallets available, added a non KYC exchange that has IOS and Android wallets, getting more and more real dev and user support. Your mention of ant miners shows that you dont even understand ANY of the underlying mechanics of Epic Cash or Grin or likely any crypto at all, you are just a sad no coiner all-talk trash... Dude you should crawl back under your rancid rock, instead of displaying more and more of your ignorance, anger and stupidity. Epic Cash for anyone who understands ANYTHING about crypto is a solid and damn smart project that just keeps getting better every day.
But thanks again for thinking of us  :D

I have some serious problems synchronizing the node ...

Right after start i have like 22 conected peers... but the it starts to drop to 3 ... then 2 .. then 1 .. and finally 0.

When i keep it long enough it incereses to 1 or 2 connected peers  for about 30 second ... it downloads a small percent of headers and then it drops again to 0 connected peers ... and that situation continues in loop for hours (i am unable to synchronize the node since three days)..


Are there any advices or solutions for that problem ?

Go to your epic-server.toml file, find the peers_preferred and add the IPs below, those are trusted Epic servers

peers_preferred = ["3.218.126.145:3414", "54.233.177.64:3414", "88.99.249.119:3414", "116.203.116.37:3414", "116.203.211.229:3414", "95.216.215.107:3414"]

For stuff like this drop by the Epic Mining Community https://t.me/EpicMiners or Epic Cash https://t.me/EpicCash Telegram groups. Most people avoid the [Suspicious link removed] admins do nothing to clean up the trash that trolls here.

Regards!
P.S. OMG Just noticed that Bitcointalk removed its own link as Suspicious link  :o ::) ironic on many levels  ;D

Probably cause people are waking up to this scam and moving resources elsewhere

 Why should one be disappointed about getting kicked off a project which doesn't pay its contributors?

If you didn't care, you wouldn't be reading or leaving comments.

"This is STALKING !"   ;D You pussy
