They didnt expect this bounce of BTC and other crypto and it totally exposed them! They are insolvent and do NOT have coins enough to cover all their customers wallet balances. They are the next cryptsy 100%.

If you could go ahead and show your evidence/proof.

I'm curious.

I see the troll farms are out in force for Nano, it works on average social platforms.

Most of us here in BTCtalk users are seasoned veterans in this tactic.

Meh, it'll be ok for Nano. People were warned about Bitgrail's weird behavior, some listened and some didn't.

I didn't sell any of the coin because it of the nature of the event. But still will expect from the core to audit the code to make sure there is no vulnerability in remaining code anymore. This was shocking the way this flaw left on the withdraw side to validate the amount. This project came out as good alternative of many coins and it should be strong enough to avoid such incidents in future.

Correct yourself, this was a problem with Bitgrail's bad code, not Nano.

Currently it's a very hard time for Masari. Buying support is very thin. May be people just don't want to invest in a "just" Monero testnet project?

At this point is more of a "this seems like a good concept, I'll get some coins and at the same time this supports the developer indirectly by giving the coin some volume."

It was mentioned before, it's completely experimental.

seems  nem is a real good project ,  so regret to  miss  the nem boat ,   will buy some  in future , it is too expensive now.


You will most likely pay a whole lot more in the future. Get in while it's still dipping.  Cool

Hello,

Masari is an experimental coin with its goals not intended to compete with Monero, as they don't really overlap in objectives.

Masari's most recent improvement however does overlap, and surfaced exactly because of adversarial market effects on Masari's existence and not due to randomly fiddling with a testnet, seen in the pull request above, replacing an inefficient difficulty algorithm implementation in Monero.

The purpose of Masari is for on-chain scalability initiatives that have not been delved into in the CryptoNote space, starting with uncle mining using a variant of the DECOR+ protocol, followed by research into sharding/partitioning potential of the transaction outputs into a "blocktree" structure (pending a whitepaper draft and peer review).

Although there will likely be more upstream contributions (bug fixes, minor features, etc.), these goals differ greatly from Monero's as its team pursues 2nd layer solutions. I'm not one to say that on-chain scalability is a better pursuit, nor whether or not 2nd layer solutions are the best, and we're seeing new innovations coming out all the time that may take market dominance in the future (i.e. blockchain alternatives like Hashgraph, Raiblocks, IOTA, etc., ignoring decentralization concerns.).

I'd like to re-iterate that this is an experimental coin, with value outside of just being a local testnet, and for all intensive purposes is not necessarily intended to be one for you to invest in - there is little to no marketing here outside of organic community growth.

I hope this answers your questions.

Cheers,
Thaer

Thank you for that response, and yes I like to dip into experimental tech from time to time.

I will keep an eye on it.

For those that do not know DECOR+ here is a link:

https://faq.rsk.co/hrf_faq/what-is-the-decor-protocol/

Is Masari also pursuing faster speed of transaction with on-chain scalability by researching into partitioning?

It seems to me that it would be much safer for anonymous users to ultimately use a succesful on-chain scalability solution than a 2nd layer solution like Monero is trying to do. I mention this because of the recent discovery that those who try to stay anonymous with Bitcoin while using Lightning with a tumbler might actually expose themselves publicly.

If Masari is succesful, I can see it becoming a big competitor to Monero.

If I am getting the wrong idea, please correct me.


P.S. Might want to also explain what Masari means, at the moment I keep relating it to Mass Effect's Asari alien race.

All of you act like there won't be blockchain analysts hired by the exchanges and other people with heavy bags monitoring the movement of these coins.

Relax, it was the exchange's fault and any attempt at cashing out these coins will immediately reveal who it was. Might as well call these coins as good as burned.

B Grade - ETH and EOS.
B- Grade - ADA, NEO and Steem.
C+ Grade - ARK, BTC, BTS, GBYTE, DASH, DCR, IOC, LTC and NEM.
I would presume that on their next rating schedule some of the C+ could potentially get a B-


C Grade - AEON, ASCH , BLK, BLOCK, BURST, BCN, XCP, DOGE, ETC, KMD, LSK, MNR, NAV, NBL, NXS, NXT, PPC, PIVX, QTUM, XRB and XRP.
C- Grade - BCH, CLOAK, DGB, XDN, ETN, FTC, NMC, RDD, SKY, UBQ, VIA, XWC and ZEN.
D+ Grade - AUR, BTG, EMC2, GAME, NLG, MEC, ETP and PURA.
D Grade - EXP, GUP, NVC, POT, QUARK, RISE and SALUS.

These ratings are meaningless, they are coming from dinosaurs who wish we could go back to the roaring 1950s  Cheesy Roll Eyes

They are not meaningless at all. By giving these ratings, they are making crypto assets more legit and mainstream. These ratings are not based on the merits of the technology but their potentials as investments and they NEVER give out A's. A rating of C is not bad like in school grades and actually indicates to hold that investment.

You mean the way they gave AAA ratings to subprime mortgages right before the great USA recession of 2008?  Roll Eyes

Again, meaningless ratings from people who barely understand Bitcoin but want to manipulate the markets.

What is the point to Masari? What does it improve on Monero?

The thing that Masari has implemented compared to Monero is a new DAA that could now be added to Monero (https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/2887).
The plans for the future from what has been promised will be about on-chain scalability.
The point is that Masari wants to contribute to the development of Monero where some things I think can't be tested directly, and provide a fork of Monero stable and maintained over time

Why even create a new coin fork when all you need is a test net?

I'm not here to convince you lol  This is a fork of Monero and will take the road he wants . otherwise according to your reasoning we will not even talking about monero (fork of bytecoin) now

What? I asked a simple question, you make no sense and I see no direct answer to my question. Makes me think twice about putting BTC towards a test net for Monero.

I'm not the developer, put your btc wherever you want. The rodmap is on the website, it is not a simple test net, dyor

Part of "do your own research" is coming to a place where the developer frequents and ask questions which are not found anywhere else.

Masari is not even listed on coinmarketcap, so now can someone answer the simple question of what is the purpose of this Monero fork?

This coin dropped dramatically. Is the reason because of the news from Korea? Anyone have any opinion of whether it will go back up to around $10 soon? It was around $13 ten days ago.

its because new network is a disaster. if you on mac - kiss your coins goodbye, no coinswap for you. thanks devs. you want to talk about security? what security?) same 40mb "secured" block size? wide open masternodes on outdated machines? now i can see these many features that not available in most other cryptocurrencies))) very fast downhill right there

Is this your best attempt at FUD?  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

The price dropped because of the swap, your coins on the new network are now 10x what you had on the old network once you swap so naturally the price has to be corrected to reflect this swap.

how come its mine? https://github.com/CooleRRSA/crave-ng/issues/5

C+ is better than C (I'm talking about the results, not the programming languages Wink ) ? If it is, then our position (amongst other cryptocurrencies) is really not bad. On the other hand, I don't think this report will pay too much attention at all and thus this will not have some crucial impact due to price level/trading volume.

I think this is all bilge put together by grabby chancers but it is now a thing and it's probably not going away. There are also enough creeps and benders out there who will put some faith in it. I'm now interested to see what it takes for a coin to move up a grade.

Yeah seems like it’s already impacting price. Crypto is dumb sometimes. I’m still finding the recent price action to be rather worrying.

Ask the publisher what the concept is behind each coin and how it will interface with the tech being developed for the coins, you will get an "I don't know"

They are trying to treat crypto like stock, crypto currency is not stock.  Roll Eyes

Why alot of people are talking shit here and are promoting THC, CANN and DOPE? Because you are afraid to loose your investment on these 3 coins, so you want other people be afraid of the POT market to join in the other coins. However, look at DOPE and CANN, they are in red of the 50% after the pump of yesterday when POT coin has a bigger support also on high prices, it lost only a little part of the pump, lost the 25%, that is more healty for a coin, and show that here, and in THC there are no manipulations on the price, or even, not so big manipulation as DOPE and CANN that are really shit coins.

I'd be curious to know if you even know what Potcoin's business model is? I know what Dopecoin's is.

Quote
Guys, we have just two serious coins that work in the cannabis world, the POTCOIN(POT) and the HEMPCOIN(THC)
And i'm still holding just POT, because i haven't trusted the HEMPCOIN project when the price was low.

What is your def. of a shitcoin ? I think you might find your answer when you reply back to my first question.

Quote
All the people who try to convince you to buy DOPE and CANN, are just noobs who lost their money on these coins, and want to try to fud them spamming the name of these coins in other topics, in this case on the POT topic.

Eh....


I hold all these coins, and I know I've had my differences with DopeCoin dev (regarding the name DopeCoin) but Dopey is the only dev I have seen really working hard at bringing crypto to the marijuana industry to solve their banking problems.

DopeCoin is the only one I've seen so far with constant updates and the dev is very responsive to people.

PotCoin is good but there is not much activity except for Dennis Rodman marketing it every chance he gets (which is good for all weed coins).

How to compile Crave wallet for Ubuntu 16.04?

I have tried with the repo available but have not been able to compile wallet.
You can either follow the PDF guide, video guide, or there is also a script in the #how-to-links channel of Discord which will compile the wallet for you.

The problem is I don't want to set up a masternode.

I am trying to set up a GUI wallet in a Linux environment but the Github download is missing a lot of files when it comes to compiling the wallet.

Maybe devs can upload a compiled Crave QT like they have for the other versions.

Updated the script available on discord (#how-to-links) to allow a GUI install. Tested on ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Drag the script somewhere :
Code:
chmod +x crave-install.sh
./crave-install.sh gui

Thank you, this worked.

very interesting venture , is there any bounty program?

You are too late few months ago this coin was distributed through solving some captcha but now this opportunity has been finished for forever. You have to buy this from exchanges I hope very soon it will be on binance.

The pre-sale is finished soon,
I want to buy coins by all means.
The registration is complete,
so prepare to purchase. Expect.

Are you sure about XRB there is ongoing pre-sale?

The guy is japanese, maybe google translate didn't help much.

Here I try:
