I think it is 4.3 million in the bounty pool, and this is the issue that needs addressing.

A  community coin must be transparent. Everything gets documented. Every bounty, tx,. Spends are community spends, so they need to be run past it, and explanations given as to what spending money -  which can be dumped -  will offer INSANE in terms of a growth strategy.

It would be better to work on marketing, save the 4.3 or even the whole 8m and put it to the care of the Garden as they have reputation to protect.

Eventually, assuming INSANE achieved good ends, ICO it at in stages at market price (just above as you have to cover availability at price X, not act that all coins are available at price X (Trumpcoin Fund Swindle). ICO is the wrong term, I mean reasonable sales that benefit both parties.

You get a lot more bounty when you have bitcoin or dollars.

I added @CoinMKTCap in 1 tweet and @altcointoday in another, the better for insane if they know, and nice if https://twitter.com/altcointoday gets onside. They can be quite effective and helpful.

So, INSANE has a higher market cap than Bolivar. It would be higher still if the nova stats are added.

PLUS a faucet .... I guess a donation should go if it needs funds.

https://novaexchange.com/remote/v2/market/info/BTC_INSANE/

api for nova, I just  submitted it to coinmarketcap, as an extra exchange (they require a link to an api trading page)

But this is a useful link to have.

Incidentally, I think nova has been good for insane, it is more secure from the pump. Maybe it is a better place to trade.

I would say 1 more exchange, will spread insane wide enough to avoid the control lost when you trade on just one. But not another Yobit .. lol

Then you simply appoint guardians, to ensure price differentiation is reported to insane HQ.

I would have said cryptopia, as it is stable enough, but voting is no longer there. Cost 1,000,000 DOT and a PM to  Hex to be considerd.

Works out at about 1 BTC.

It is way overpriced, but I think they are trying to clear coins out, so do not want a flood in (to be fair), so it sounds like a tactic to keep coins out.

Who is that? I have records of all transactions I sent; account address, tx number, date and recipient. I emailed  the top 2 again, but no replies. I notice dansus021 was last active on: October 18, 2016, 01:09:45 PM. BTCdoaA was last active: November 10, 2016, 09:08:52 AM.


Burn Address, just tested

I can make a custom burn address. Like the one on trumpinsane.

http://coinburn.com/home.html

you could even use:

iCoinBurnDotComDestroyedALLXZTpTJy

That is an off the shelf generic I generated as a free burn address., A custom one looks better, which would also be free at insane! :-)

(All those addresses are free to use, you  just need to pick the right Base58 character)

still coins in the account

http://109.169.57.125:3001/address/TQoEjW3d8WQhCmvTgbMj1fRqdrVsRLEqyS

Let's burn the surplus! Lower coin count.

That sounds worthy.

I think the "mystery dumper" is getting low on coins ... so upwards.

Are you part of development? If so, identity and visibility are two areas to tackle.

A bot  on twitter is a simple way of profiling yourself. Plus a couple of feeds running through the bot account. These very small building blocks can be crucial in building a profile. I know you can get feed data from the garden, as I had it on trumpinsane.

PS: I think the Garden Twitter meta is a bit off key. The twitter card does not seem to show an image .. or my isp is playing up yet again, not an infrequent happening.

That was quick!

Nova has loads of markets you trade in, that could be interesting, and I believe you can request to trade against a coin.

if the coin is successful, then definitely it needs to be changed to a the most modern PoS.

Orbit is clever as they have made so many changes. It is not for is, though, as it is hybrid, whereas we PoS.

We can mine up till block 14,000, but we do not have to. The network will carry itself via PoS from the beginning if premined enough (maybe 5% would do it), and that premine is left staking. With a 100% premine, you would probably not need to mine more than the genesis block and premine on block 1.

main.h (30 and 31)
static const int LAST_POW_BLOCK = 14000;
static const int FIRST_POS_BLOCK = 0; // PoS always on

lol .. I edited as you posted ... see above

I have no idea, I would have to look into it. It might be a generic thing, or it might have been coded into a PoS coin, which others may well have cloned since then.

This is X11, it might be an X13 that has such capacity. My knowledge is not great, I can clone, but I am not a programmer (I guess there are less than 20 of those in the whole alt scene). I will see what I can find out.

When it stakes, you get splitting. To stop it, you can recompile a wallet and change it in wallet.cpp (lines 19 and 20)

https://github.com/insaneinthemembrane/v2/blob/master/src/wallet.cpp

unsigned int nStakeSplitAge = 1 * 24 * 60 * 60;
int64_t nStakeCombineThreshold = 1000 * COIN;

It is annoying but originally made like this to keep network activity alive, since you end up with more addresses competing to stake.

Some coins have changed it, but most PoS coins have not, fearing a network problem.

Individual wallets can be altered without making a great effect on the market.

nStakeSplitAge = 1 * 24 * 60 * 60; makes he PoS reward split to 2 outputs when the stake was younger than nStakeSplitAge
nStakeCombineThreshold = 1000 * COIN; makes many sub 1000 coins at the staking address

You can change the values, although you want to get it right! I have tried variations, some worked better than others.

I am not even sure what I altered it to on my wallet insane, but I will have. You can slow down splitting, but you seem to stake less often, but you get bigger stakes.

The easy way, is about every 2 weeks or month, recombine all the coins, and start as if new. You lose some staking time.

The biggest issue is when you leave a wallet staking away, and you have hundreds of outputs trying to stake. You try to send a decent amount of coins, and get a message saying insufficient funds because the coins are busy. In this instance, you just have to wait. Probably better to close your wallet (not 100 per cent sure on that bit), and eventually the transaction will become uncontested, and will go through.

YAC
Reddcoin

both altered them for the wallet as a whole, but I am not sure they are suitable.

Easiest is to make a new wallet after a month, and send your coins to it, it cuts down on splits, contested transactions and dusrt wallets that grow to 20 mb due to the activity.

Okay, Bitzy, I just bought 55 votes, or 54, so hopefully people can follow through.

Members get a free vote every day. We need 150 more I think, because they will include the 50 npoints you bought as votes.


Insane Coin is now listed on Nova Exchange for voting.

It is a rule that should pervade throughout exchanges. I believe it is illegal to use tactics lke this, but nobody really checks on  exchanges, partly because some of he top ones are are based in countries that will not cooperate in any investigation.

The practices that go on, insider trading, price manipulation, pump and dump, will get you prison time if the authorities choose to prioritise this.

This is precisely why so many EU and US exchanges are falling behind, as they run the risk of investigation.

People are mistaken if they think a non-regulated market means anything goes. It means there is no formal body regulating.

One day,  there will be a few surprises for some ..  Yobit and C-Cex will be okay, but the traders, the organised manipulators within the US or EU,  might well be in for a shock.

It is possible to trade your way there, buying and selling NPoints. It can take a few weeks, but you can get there in the end.

Remember, trade stats, nova will not count any business done if you buy your own order, so you can not try to create interest in the way you can on other exchanges.

Thanks for the information.

A collective wall at 50 and 51, order 5 million and 10 million.

That would be 7.5 BTC  ... but the order can not be fulfilled.

Expensive at first glance, but I doubt more than 3 BTC would be taken out.

You have to have 1 person put the order in, like me (cough) so nobody pulls out or changes position (it is pointless taking it turns to build a wall - you just get a "Prisoner's Dilemma" scenario going).

The right way, everyone is equal, and every sell into it is covered by each investor, and the coins sold into it are distributed equally.

It would put the price over the 50s, and remove a few million from the market.

It could make a huge difference.
