1061  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [TEK] TEKcoin Mandatory Update! 40%+ SuperStake in 30+ days on: August 28, 2014, 05:47:11 PM
No one is forcing you to stake coins right now, just keep wallet locked until "climate" for stake reward is better.
You mean that if I stake later, I could get a higher rate? Is there a way to evaluate this? I suppose a diff chart would be the way, like this one for Monero: http://monerochain.info/charts/difficulty. Do you confirm that such a chart exist?

"Works for me, wallet reports v2.0.1 but I'm connected just to nodes which report v2.0.0 so a bit confused about versions - what are differences between v2.0.0 and v2.0.1  Huh"

2 is the new wallet old gui, 2.1 is the new wallet new gui both are good

I like new GUI more.  Smiley
So the source code (https://github.com/maxxine/TEK) is 2.0.1, I presume?
1062  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [TEK] TEKcoin Mandatory Update! 40%+ SuperStake in 30+ days on: August 28, 2014, 05:32:39 PM
OK guys, please confirm I am right

A. Salvaging
1. We finally have a working TEK again - no more forks - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=320404.msg8565376#msg8565376
2. Do NOT start up the old client. Get the latest version instead.
3. Do NOT use the older blockchain. Sync everything from scratch (so, delete your /tekcoin folder EXCEPT your wallet, of course). A blockchain is available to download somewhere (please point the URL, update the OP
4. Ideally, use a backup of your wallet, not the latest version of your wallet, which might be on the wrong chain from the past ten days
5. While you're at it, create a tekcoin.conf file like this one
put this in tekcoin.conf (thanks to oto3):
connect=74.196.63.95
connect=75.90.67.140
connect=68.229.91.209
connect=108.59.185.202
connect=98.236.102.116
connect=75.91.15.240
connect=94.156.230.246
connect=64.188.164.77

6. Prepare to get a much lower interest rate than before, since NVCS finally kicked in. This means the poor sod like me who expected this interest rate to continu for some time are out of luck. But this also mean that, hopefully, the price will go up. Do NOT sell at these prices. Yes, some people will dump hard, let them dump, Alternatively, you can try short selling, of course. Whatever happens, TEK should rise in price again, but not immediately
7. It would be good to check your wallet. Repair wallet and --salvage wallet would make sense, but more explanations needed here
8. Update the OP with instructions.

So, please confirm step-by-step (e.g. 1 is OK, 2 is not, 3 is OK...). Until I get a OK satisfactory answer on steps 1 to 5 included (and optionally step 7 too), I won't start my wallet.

B. Observations
1. In the future, dev should use #tekcoin (IRC @freenode) instead of bitcointalk. This is much faster for debugging.
2. I would welcome a debriefing. What went wrong (biomech wrote up a nice summary), what can be done to improve the process (PDCA/Deming wheel)

I am positively impressed with the work you've done, noise23. I think we should start a closer relationship, HYP and TRK cross-fertilizing each other. Congratulations again!

Regarding the mac wallet, take a look at cross-compilation.

à mon avis pour le moment HYP est dans une phase de transition, ca fait depuis le début que je le suis aprés le TRK donc j'avais déja pas mal de TRK non vendu et je stake depuis .
c'est un  des coin les plus sérieux que j'ai eu l'occasion de voir et c'est assez prometeur et inovateur Smiley
Apparemment, Poloniex pense la même chose Smiley

I like it! Easy to read, fits nicely with the color scheme and icons.  Nice....  Cheesy
I like it too, looks flat design to me (not exactly, but pretty close). Only thing to change (save icons) is the color of the selected text. Golden is not contrasted enough. Try darkgoldenrod, maybe.
1066  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency (mandatory upgrade) on: August 27, 2014, 05:22:42 PM
david is a fine gentleman I'm just questioning what this could bring to monero.
Maybe some experiment could be ported to Monero (like populating the Github wiki and developping a Raspberry wallet - also, HYP proved that an ANN can be both self-moderated and widely accepted) but for the most part, HyperStake is just an unrelated project. As kbm mentioned "it's okay to support more than one coin". HyperStake was started more than one month ago and my personal goals were (and still are):
  • working with someone I like (presstab)
  • having PoS wallets done right (and HYP probably has the best High-PoS wallet out there)
  • joining an experimentation-friendly coin

Remember this: assume good faith. It does wonder to your mental health (at least it does to mine)

Sync is contantly being stuck, I have to restart the wallet a lot of time. This is really tiresome and saps the confidence in the coin. Unick or other, please take a look at what presstab will do for HyperStake, because we inherited some similar issues in Truckcoin, you might get some idea for fixing this.
1068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][HYP] HyperStake | Proof of Stake | 750% Annual | Coin-Swap & AllCoin on: August 26, 2014, 11:19:25 PM
Regarding the auto spread and split feature in cc as mentioned earlier, with current difficulty its not needed any more.
I have given up on the spreading.
But maybe you could change the way the stack gets split ?
Currently it splits every stack in 50/50 regardless the amount.
It would be a great feature to only split stacks above 1600 or whatever value user prefers.
Orbitcoin is doing that if I am correct.
I'd like something like this
IF block_size < 3200
AND age < 2
THEN merge
the block_size and age value should be changeable of course.

What's the point? Well, I have blocks of 1600 HYP, which prevent losses up to 30 day without logging in. But I have my wallet open 24/7 most of the time, so I could stake faster by having blocks of 3200.
Thing is, it is tedious to do it manually without losing to much age. This automatic feature would take care of both the transition from 1600 to 3200 AND take care of future block splitting too.
Icing on the cake, there could be prompt asking "how often do you plan to open your wallet?" You enter the value and the wallet takes care of auto-optimisation.

(I think I already suggested the last part earlier)

Update: thanks foxi Smiley

1075  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Call for Monero Motto in Esperanto on: August 24, 2014, 09:48:50 AM
Could some esperanto speaker propose motto in esperanto? Let's first consider it in English then after in Esperanto. The actual motto could be slightly changed after the move to esperanto, for euphonic reasons (traduttore, traditore).

Below a compilation of previous proposals I am aware of. I also opened a reddit for this, it will probably be easier to handle there. Also note that this is an exercice in style and it doesn't constitute an official sanction of the motto idea, even though I am in the core team.

I also opened a reddit, which will probably be easier to handle than Bitcointalk: Monero motto in Esperanto.

Also, I propose an official motto for monero, suitable for business cards, physical coins & c.:
Monero est priquiditas pro populo.
Because: Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.
"Securing Freedom through Privacy" - Google Latin "Praesent libero per Securitate"
"Securing Financial Liberty through Privacy" - Google Latin "Aliquam erat volutpat Securitate libertas"

1076  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [TEK] TEKcoin 40%+ SuperStake in 30+ days on: August 24, 2014, 01:01:09 AM
Since TEK has no max_subsidy unlike CAP or HYP, there is no economical reason to have a particular stack size. I suggest you to keep them al together, you'll stake faster.
But it does have to do with the health of the coin, and the market.
That's why I said economical reasons Smiley as in "will the selfish and short-minded guy get more TEK out of it?". The fact that getting more coins but with less value makes no sense is out of scope for the selfish-short-minded. Your post is still right. Making the market more liquid is of great importance. Lack of block halving is great for initial distribution and I still like it, even though it comes at the cost of important illiquidity at first (this and high reward, of course).

Code:
mkdir -p ~/cryptos && cd ~/cryptos && rm -rf TEK && git clone git://github.com/maxxine/TEK && cd TEK && qmake-qt5 tekcoin-qt.pro && make && ln -s ~/cryptos/TEK/tekcoin-qt ~/Desktop/TEK
&& ln -s ~/cryptos/TEK/tekcoin-qt ~/Desktop/TEK is only if you want to create a shortcut on your Desktop

Still for Linux, updating should be just one line of code too:
Code:
cd ~/cryptos/TEK && git pull && qmake-qt5 tekcoin-qt.pro && make
It's not a bad idea to add STATIC=1, as that makes it so you can move the client to another computer without recompiling.  so you're last line would be make STATIC=1 -f Makefile. I build all my wallets this way, and it makes for better control, especially since I'm constantly experimenting. It DOES make the final executable program a bit bigger, as it compiles the necessary libraries into the program. Depending on your circumstances and ability to resist playing with your installation. (my ability in that arena is nonexistant Cheesy ) An option to think about.
Can you paste my code with you STATIC=1 value? I fail to see where to place it on the two lines of code.

My impression (as someone who has been around the Bitcoin scene since 2011) is that Bitcoin development is in fact quite stagnant, and increasingly so.
This. I have this feeling too that Bitcoin is resting on its technological laurels and focusing on real life adoption. It seems to be all well and good at first sight, but really it isn't.

The problem with Bitcoin is not technological at heart, it is human.
1078  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][HYP] HyperStake | Proof of Stake | 750% Annual | Coin-Swap & AllCoin on: August 23, 2014, 09:26:26 PM
New wallet might be delayed a bit.  Some great GUI enhancements are being added. I am waiting for some final releases of our new icons so that we can update the GUI all at once.
Sorry to say so, presstab, but I really don't like the black background (plus, it is not consistent, other wallet window are not black). I find it overly agressive to my eyes.
Would it be possible to choose the background color? That would basically mean integrating theming support, which is probably non-trivial but my (only) eye would thank you.

Edit: I updated the glossary with Dust and Proof-of-Stake, each time including a substantial quote from Presstab.

I also added this on the main wiki page and I'd like to be sure I am correct

* Inflation control (should limit compounded interest, whilst still keeping APR at 750% and ensuring a strong network security) - max_subsidy (no more than 1000 HYP from one block, encourages spreading the block, which in turn secures the network and limits coumpound interest), and max generation per day (no more than 960000 HYP can be generated in a day)

Ah okay. If we decide on a clear charter to be enforced I will be happy to open a moderated one.
As a general rule, any new sister thread shall be moderated. Reason 1 is all our thread (even the FAQ) are filled with shills. Reason 2 is we have for long a reputation of not abusing of the self-moderation feature, so we shall not fear rejection anymore on this ground. Reason 3 of course is that it will be saner to read for anyone.

Surprisingly, this might not be true. Monero already has approximately 3% as many transactions as BTC and this number is likely to grow as improvements to XMR (especially GUI) are rolled out and more avenues for usage appear. So far aside from speculation (exchanges) we have exactly one medical practice and one gambling site.
As well as two contractants: a chef and a servant (although it was only partially paid in XMR).
