101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history) on: October 09, 2014, 07:29:38 AM

why ANC got stuck on the block 252535? high difficulty?

I am guessing multipools
102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history) on: October 09, 2014, 05:36:52 AM
is difficulty really skyrocketing like this?


current difficulty 3870, last block generated 3 hours ago?

this is hilarious

I do analytical stuff like this with equities sometimes

if anyone wants to read more in depth analysis I would suggest checking out www.citronresearch.com and sometimes www.timothysykes.com for similar language

Today I saw a buy order of 15 btc on poloniex at 45000, there's much interest in monero, I'm in too.

15 btc is not a lot of money, literally one person or several people's $8000 was enough to make you buy, that is hilarious

your mind will explode once you get exposed to the amounts that move in a single US equity in pre-market

What meeh wrote was incoherent babble (but I'm curious about those services). Do you want your currency to be shorted, because this is how you get your currency shorted.

There are 7 bitcoins worth of ANC buy orders on the cryptsy order books.
106  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history) on: June 03, 2014, 04:25:44 AM
I have some ideas about how to integrate (parts of) the Zerocash system http://zerocash-project.org/paper into Anoncoin. If the ANC devs are interested in experimenting with a few things on testnet please let me know.

Unfortunately for ANC if substantial progress is not made soon I am afraid DRK (or potentially a few others) will win the battle for anonymous coin supremacy (by winning the adoption race) even if its technology is not necessarily the best.

I don't think that the competition is Dark Coin: they will slowly go away as better solutions are offered. Nevertheless, if Matthew Green and his team releases Zerocash before Anoncoin releases their version of Zerocoin, Anoncoin will be dead with no hope of resurrection, EVER. Matthew Green brings "respectability" to the table (at least to some, I could care less) as an academic crytptographer, and they are certain to find a setup of their initial parameters that will likely be "acceptable", even if it is not trustless. It is true that you can not monitor the total money supply of Zerocash, and that trust is an important issue, but if people trust Darkcoin and CryptoNote, they will certainly trust Zerocash. Furthermore, as a coin coming from academia, I am certain that Zerocash will be introduced in a fair manner (unlike DRK), and will come with ample documentation.

According to Ian Meirs's twitter feed, they are planning a Zerocash release in 3-6 months time (https://twitter.com/secparam/status/468784402558771200). The Anoncoin devs are way behind schedule, have not set up the testnet,  and are not responding at all to help that is being offered from the community. I have tried to contact them via this forum, reddit, and the irc channel, offering 20 cores for the entire month of June for their brute force attacks on RSA UFOs, and have received no response. A previous poster offered 5000 USD in matching funds for Gnosis if he finished Zerocoin by June 1, and he wasn't even interested (10k in ANC would certainly become 1 million a month later, if successful....). Though Meeh stated in March that Gnosis received financial backing to implement Zerocoin, Meeh's last post states that Gnosis is busy with his other full time job and can not commit ample time to Zerocoin. Meeh's idea of "I'll get back with more Anoncoin updates soon!" is 3 months time. In three more months, zerocash could already be here.

So, my prognosis is the following: If the developers have nothing to show us by July 1, this coin will die.

Zerocash is a joke. Complex, but so opaque that its users cannot even trust that a currency exists, except possible to enrich a malicious operator. It is as opaque as existing financial institutions

Cryptonote, on the other hand, is not.

Zerocoin-in-Anoncoin still has an advantage or two over Cryptonote. They actually have the same problems just that Cryptonote didn't debate with anybody about it and just did it. And look! it isn't a concern to anyone! But the cryptonote devs are concerned about the size the blockchain will become

108  Economy / Securities / Re: [ASICMINER] lawsuit on: June 01, 2014, 05:34:53 PM
ex board member here using an anonymous alias so i will not receive backlash from other board members or friedcat

there is many dodgy scam things going on at asicminer which has personally costs me over a million dollars

we have been asked to keep our mouth closed about it for so long but after the other night i feel its time to do the right thing

friedcat has mishandled asicminer and as i see it no longer fit to be ceo of asicminer

this is what i understand that friedcat no longer has any intention of running asicminer as a proper company anymore he hates the investors and the community involved

he is slowly killing off asicminer while secretly working on another project that does not require any investors

i personally think a lawsuit against friedcat is the way to go or at least to have him removed as ceo

friedcat has lost so much money for his investors and he does not care he wants out

i would like to help facilitate a lawsuit against friedcat for running the company into the ground

i will be contacting the chinese securities regulatory commission csrc about this mess and looking forward to stopping friedcat losing investors money on purpose

thank you

You're a joke. Prove that you were a board member first.

Then, sit down and realize that the Chinese government won't do anything about this.

Hell, people here can barely get together a lawsuit against COG's Garret or ACTM's Ken. And that's the overly-litigious US.

Good luck waging a legal battle in China, of all places, against a man and a company that have done nothing but give good returns to investors. FC and AM never gave any guaranteed return promises, so the fact that you bought shares for an inflated price will do nothing in front of any judge.

I dunno about that, the mere threat of someone involving chinese authorities forced that beijing bitcoin mining company to give everyone their bitcoins back, very soon after the IPO



109  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Breaking News! Bitcoin mining company threatens to kill fellow Bitcoiner via PM on: June 01, 2014, 05:16:36 PM
fwiw I heard about AMT due to some pennsylvania or delaware local news headline about some mining company not delivering and a district court case


so I'd say AMT Miners anger/threats are misdirected, if anything.

This coin is not dead.
But is dying,slowly dying.
Doesnt have anything special...people goes to other better cryptos

What's special about Dogecoin is its community, which is way more important than having a brand new technology, for the long-term success of a currency.

This coin is not dead.
But is dying,slowly dying.
Doesnt have anything special...people goes to other better cryptos
Dogecoin need to change for survive...special change!

No. It needs to keep being Dogecoin, with all the positive aspects that this imply. No need to adopt a flashy algorithm.

its special and also not very lucrative!

most of a coin's value is its growth potential, and the majority of growth potential comes from having a finite resource. Doge is not a finite resource, even if this won't be noticeable for a few years, the market decision is based on its perpetual inflation

which means it will lose value just like every fiat currency

people don't want that. people never wanted that.

consider forking to make the curecoin unit more financially viable
113  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MRO] Monero - Anonymous Currency Based on Ring Signatures on: May 24, 2014, 01:20:20 AM
Can someone with sufficient and unbaised knowledge please explain to me why MRO is only listed on a few small exchanges and why it has basically flatlined while darkcoin has gone through the roof?

What is it that has made darkcoin so much more attractive than MRO?

someone just asked this on reddit I'll copy and paste an answer:

the anonomity feature is highly profitable
people contributing to the laundry require 1000 drk to participate, but those people also split 10% of the block reward... but blocks come in every 2.5 minutes
so on a daily basis people can make A LOT if they invest 1000 drk into a masternode server.
so not only are people buying 1000 drk at a time, they are also removing drk from the supply since they won't be so likely to sell as they are earning more dark with minimal to zero overhead costs

what prevents Monero from following the same fate at bytecoin? ie a $20k market cap... they have the same number of atomic units after all
Bytecoin has a $10 million market cap at last price on Poloniex...

You're confusing BCN with BTE. BTE has a $20k market cap, not BCN.

oh... I mean... who wouldn't?

117  Economy / Securities / Re: [ActiveMining] Official Shareholder Discussion Thread [Moderated] on: May 11, 2014, 03:29:16 AM
alright thanks for the liquidity guys, I'm out, didn't need the cash but this shit show isn't worth it when altcoins have enough volatility for great trades

distributed autonomous corporations are the only way to go, the human element is just dumb and my position was too small or decreased in value too much for me to keep my holdings through the ken factor

coupled with centralized exchanges, and already under the threat of a securities agency, cash flow issues, poorly used cash (nre, gox, bitfunder issues), we've all seen how this pans out

the only positive thing is the boards which have a tiny tiny window to be a great product, but that is also fail because... drumroll.... ken can't sell them due to website mismanagement nor can AMC create them fast enough!

no need to be a bagholder when the writing is on the wall
118  Economy / Securities / Re: [ActiveMining] Official Shareholder Discussion Thread [Moderated] on: May 10, 2014, 10:40:08 PM
please PM me anyone

whats next? what is on the roadmap?

better website and sales process? better machine?


hold, sell or buy? not in need of cash but is there any reason to be optimistic about this company?
119  Economy / Securities / Re: [ActiveMining] Official Shareholder Discussion Thread [Moderated] on: March 05, 2014, 02:10:19 AM
Ken did not have coins on Mt. Gox, he was selling on Bitstamp since last summer!

don't be fooled, you can even see the order book, last time bitcoin was $90 and fell to $60 Ken was selling. This was a little after the fundraising.

A convenient alibi Ken, but no.
