Yep, they cant use github.

That is too bad.

IMO, this decision will make fixing bugs that are discovered in bitcoin/litecoin far slower and more error prone.
102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Forking Alt-coins on: June 24, 2013, 07:48:38 AM
I'm noticing that a number of alts are not forked from the github projects but rather uploaded, creating an entirely separate project.

Litecoin for example, is forked off of the bitcoin project, and doing diffs is sublimely trivial.

In contrast, I can't just do that with some of these other coins, it has to happen outside of the browser.

Any good reasons for creating an entirely separate project?

Edit: After the responses and some more thinking I realized it's actually a turn off when I see a coin that follows this pattern. There's at least one that calls itself a fork but isn't forked in the most fundamental of ways. And it resides on github. I'm kind of baffled.

That is because the generation is also flattening over time

Some of you really need to read the first post more closely.
108  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PSA: About 45% of exchanges opened since 2010 have subsequently closed on: June 17, 2013, 07:32:09 AM
It just pisses me off.

I lost a fair amount with btcex, and MyBitcoin, and GLBSE...

Was away from the computer for months, and oh well.

I guess the main point is don't leave funds on exchanges since there's really no guarantee that your money will be there tomorrow.

We're talking a pretty big amount, even if it was from a decade ago when I dabbled in BTC and then forgot about it, there is no way I had that many.

A decade?

Good experience with your site and the process so far.

I am having a small issue at the moment.

What I'm trying to do is exclude a number of domains, I've followed the instructions and still clicks are being recorded for those domains.

Have paused my campaigns for now, please advise.

Thanks.

Striking similarity.

I wonder if this time is different?
117  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcoin getting boring and old news (and losing value) on: June 15, 2013, 07:26:15 AM
Ditto. Comment as you wish.

I'll be buying all the way down.
118  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Weekends Jinxed! on: June 15, 2013, 07:16:21 AM
The thing is investors put fiat in and that's what they want out.

Cold, hard, "physical", cash.

Bitcoin wasn't made to be hoarded anyway. It was designed to facilitate *trade*, and that's exactly what's happening.

So what if the price trends down for a while.

This can only be good for Bitcoin.
119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Working P2Pool for PPCoin? Possible? on: June 15, 2013, 07:13:11 AM
I believe it's possible, for the PoW aspect, which is really all that matters anyway.

Because they're worth *something*.
