BEER coin. Why? Because BEER.

Sterling and dollar are under-rated. Backed by governments too although most here seem to think that a currency based on nothing more than a promise of a developer is worth more.

Off topic. Dork. This is a thread about coins, not sucking it for the state. Move on, clown.

Devs need have a list of bounties paid and a link to the premine wallet, with full transparency.

I hate to troll your coin but I'm going to do it anyway.

First, what you have proposed for anonymity is no better than what XC or Dark have promised or implemented.

The good news is that its no worse either.

That's not saying much because the proposals of all three fail at true anonymity. The anonymity itself is spoiled by a centralized mixing layer, which is what all three depend on. Centralized mixers break the trustless paradigm and therefore are not, by definition, anonymous.

The only way to achieve true anonymous transactions is by using cryptography and currently the only working cryptographic implementation is cryptonote ring signatures.

How people can buy into the hype around these coins with centralized anonymity is completely beyond me.

This's what PoS does to your coin.

Listen to the people, and you get dumped.

What do you mean? At least its not in danger of being forked every third day. How many PoW coins have been forked recently? It just happened to dark. The PoW always takes them down.

Either way, a coin is meant to be a vehicle for transactions, not a tool for pumpers and dumpers.

If votes can be revoked at any time, then the voting system has no integrity.

It does seem fishy.....

How come he didn't realise that he'd sent it to the wrong address days ago and only seemed to claim it back just before voting closed?

What are the chances of erroneously sending it to a current address, particularly one that could be traced to it's owner?



At best, this sounds like someone who had second thoughts about this vote and cut a deal with mintpal to get the votes withdrawn.

That's been addressed in this thread already. Please, troll somewhere else.

This is a professional coin and we need to maintain this in the future or credibility will go.


The issue of credibility rests with mintpal. If votes can be revoked at any time, then the voting system has no integrity.

This is the answer I got from Mintpal:

Code:
There was 7.92 BTC in paid-votes that was sent there by mistake by one of our customers, they have verified this fact by signing a message with the originating address so the BTC & votes were removed from the coin.

Thanks

How do you send money to BTC address by accident?

The mintpal voting system has been hacked.

Several coins have mysteriously switched position over the last couple of hours, one losing 15 to 20 thousand votes.

This points to a serious security breech.

Mintpal has nothing to say on the topic.

If you have a screenshot of the voting from before the incident, please provide it!!!

We're currently mitigating a large DDoS attack against the exchange. Some requests may be required to pass a challenge/response.
 MintPal (@MintPalExchange)

BCT has been in the voting lead for about 4 days!!!

They have had an unsecured exchange for 4 days!!!

Get out NOW!!!!
1196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN:BCT COIN, SHA3-KECCAK-BITCOINTALK COIN [BCT]-POW / 1st Place on MINTPAL on: May 26, 2014, 04:33:07 PM
ok, I just twitted Mintpal about it.

Don't expect a reply. Mintpal obviously can't secure an exchange.

Withdraw your funds NOW before they MtGox you!!!

would be maybe a little less, but 20k? no...

If mintpal has no control over their voting platform, our money isn't safe!!!!
