1001  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] STRAKS - Decentralised, Open Source, Community Driven Digital Currency on: November 24, 2017, 05:37:38 AM
I want to congratulate the developers with a successful start, it was one of the best starts in recent times.
 Smooth transition to the mainnet and accessibility for all platforms.

LOL, in recent times?  Hardly.  This started out with devs saying it could only be mined using a built-in cpu miner with a confusing script that would launch multiple daemons.  I'm sure their plan all along was to mine with their GPUs while the idiots wasted cpu cycles.  They waxed poetic as to how different this coin was and how it was too advanced for pools or miners to implement.  Only when pools did actually implement it because its nothing more than a standard algo did they change their tune. Lets not forget that rewards started 2 days after the stated time.  If you ask me, this ranks as the 2nd worst start in recent times, ranking right after Bitcoin Gold.

This was a simple statement of facts, but it appears you have a certain narrative that you are content on aligning your re-wording towards. There are 1250 coins on the market today, if for some reason STRAKS is not a currency that you would like to be a part of, I am certain that there are other currencies out there that will resonate with you. Nobody is forced to trade nor direct mining power towards STRAKS if they do not want to. At no point did we "change our tune" as you state, it is simply just a fact that the protocol is newer than what there currently is on the market.

The protocol is too new for mining pools to be able to easily implement it without any updates implemented to pools. Our hopes were that CPU mining would have lasted longer, so that even the hobby miner would have had a chance to get on board (the farms today can make it difficult for the small hobby miner to get on board) but while monitoring hashrates it became evident that someone had managed to crack it a day before launch. All credit goes to Decker from Deckerpool (https://t.me/deckerpool) who managed to update yiimp to the new protocol. After we managed to locate him, we approached him and agreed to pay him a bounty in exchange for making the code open source to the public (https://github.com/DeckerSU/yiimp/tree/straks), so that pools could be set up, miners would have a leveled playing-field and lastly so that the hashing power could be decentralised across multiple pools. If we were, as you state, holding onto a GPU miner ourselves, I am not exactly sure why we would go to the effort to pay someone for their source code for GPU mining? I addressed this very concern several pages ago too (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2433318.msg24952030#msg24952030).

A core value to STRAKS is transparency. Under no circumstance will we ever compromise on that value. We know the cryptocurrency market is crowded with nefarious individuals, we seek to shake that up by doing our part to create an ethical corner in this crowded space of nefarious individuals.

Fair enough, but I am a proud owner of a few Straks currently, so in the spirit of this being community driven and transparent, I'm just throwing in my 2 cents.  And I don't want to argue semantics, but Decker really only updated the stratum code, and from what I can tell, it looks like the main sticking point was the 5% rake the devs take from the blocks.  Suprnova implemented this coin and they don't even use yiimp.  Strange that a russian pool that previously was solely dedicated to mining SIGT would come up with this update though.  Anyway, I just thought it seemed kind of shady to make it sound like there was some giant technical advancement preventing GPU mining, when the real problem was that no one had implemented it with the stratum protocol and ccminer doesn't support getworktemplate.  CPUMiner-opt does support getblocktemplate though, so if this really had started as a cpu only venture, anyone could have used that to mine to the daemon instead of a goofy hack to run multiple daemons.

What I think is a little alarming is this.

I have ~6800 sig that I got from 1 week mining sig fairly early on that I didn't bother doing anything with. This translates to approx 1700 STRAK. Based on current network hash rates, it would take me approximately 4 months  to mine this many STRAK. It seems to me that the sig holders will be the one to control this network, but how is that fair? Why can't this coin be a true fresh start, without giving all the power to the people who held some unrelated coin?
You forgot that there was a poll with 2 swap options - swap with rate 1:4 and 1:20, and as we see most people chose 1:4. It was a people choise, thats it.

From what I recall there was no option to not have a swap at all and create a new coin without the sig baggage.
This option is coming from default, to swap or not your Sigt is up only to you.

50,000 STAK for masternode? Way too much especially if you exchange 4:1 for sigt... (200k sigt for 1 masternode is crazy) Even 1:1 it will be too many coins.

For current price of Sigt masternode is cost about 0.6btc, so its not too expensive, there is more valuable MNs at market.

Добрый день. Все еще не пришли токены на myetherwallet. Можете как-то помочь решить этот вопрос? Потому что у кого не спрошу - всем уже пришло, а мне все еще нет.
Добрый день, я напишу вам в личку. Последняя раздача токенов 28 ноября, когда ваши токены будут переведены зависит от того, когда вы прошли процедуру KYC.
Появится ли до 28 ноября официальная информация по ТЕАМ? Я все еще не заказывал выплату, но и конвертацию пока тоже не делал. Хотелось бы обладать более менее конкретной информацией во что можно будет конвертировать Smiley
Мне тоже это интересно, все еще не перекинул Эйсы на свой кошелек так как в раздумиях на счет конвертации в Тим токены, но из за недостатка информации о Тиме не могу принять решение о конвертации. Так когда можно будет почитать подробнее о данном токине?
Мы делаем все возможное, чтобы запустить TEAM как можно раньше. Отличия ACE от TEAM можете найти здесь: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2045165.msg23791164#msg23791164
Что ж, почитаю, время до 27-го еще есть чтоб принять решение. Спасибо

Также посмотрите пожалуйста сайт о TEAM
https://tokenstars.com/ru/team

Уже взглянул, спасибо.
Принял решение таки оставить Ace токены, т.к любитель тенниса, заполнил KYC и жду дальнейших указаний.
Ну и надеюсь поучавствовать в распродаже Team токенов , жду начало ИКО.

i saw it a days ago and i believe it's a meme coin because there're a lot of newly masternode coin created lately,
but what the hell with this coin price.
what make you so special other than else ? to be honest i do not understand how can this coin fly to the sky while basically it has 0 value in my opinion.
Don't underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Hi lupanar
this is just a new way to rise funds. We have published all possible disclaimers about CoinHive and their mining technology.
We published the whitepaper so you can decide if in your opinion it is worth using your cpu to be part of the project or not. We hope you can change idea and be part of the project.

Cognx Team

Thanks but Im not ready to give my cpu hashpower to some third part people, maybe one day I can change my mind...but not today. Good luck Wink

Currently mining is only for testnet, or just ignored? The wallet says that it is mainnet.
Its mainnet but due to instamine protection reward per block will be 0 till block 10080.

Hey sp_, do you planning to decrease donation cost for your mods? Asking because, due to btc price goes higher and higher, its becoming more expensive for people to buy your kernels. Maybe you have a thoughts to distribute your mods for pure fee system?

No I was planning to increase the donation limit instead.

Polytimos sp-mod 0.25BTC for 1 buyer if anyone is interested. No other copies will be spread by me..

New coin just launched a 4 days ago. No premine.

https://polytimos.net
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2409413.0
Not decrease but increase? Oo Hope you know what you are doing, cause I cant imagine who wants to pay, except big farmers maybe, a whole 0.25btc for extra 10% of hashpower...
