1221  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How 'pseudo-anonymous' could it be.. ? [Part 2] Rethinking anonymity. on: February 20, 2016, 10:06:25 AM
In a previous thread I proposed a very simple idea.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1149993

Basically, imagine an altcoin that enforced this simple rule :

1) You can only pay to an empty/non-existent address. A new address.

2) Each address can only spend once.

( This is how Satoshi originally envisaged people using bitcoin )

and then

3) CoinShuffle your txns.

I am now going to make another simple addendum to the scheme.

Let us say you are using Lamport Signatures (quantum secure). These are hash based signatures that can only be used once. To use them again is cryptographically insecure.

So once you have spent an output in some txn, you can never use that key again. Therefore, delete that public/private key from your wallet..

Keys are generated in a non-deterministic way. You cannot re-create all of them with a brain wallet. This would destroy the whole point.

Once that key has been used, and then deleted, it will never, EVER, appear anywhere again. It is mathematically impossible. You cannot retrace, recreate or restore it.

In conclusion :

We have a coin that always spends from addresses that have never been used before, sending coins to addresses that have never been seen before. The TXNs are coin shuffled, and once you have spent those inputs/outputs, the private keys are deleted (permanently) so that there is no evidence that they ever belonged to you in the first place. Your wallet would only have the private keys for unspent txn outputs you control.

I contend a very high level of anonymity could be achieved using just this simple design.

The issue is coin taint. unique addresses that are spent together are linked together, and 3rd party coin-shuffle implementations already exist for bitcoin,

Also you are forgetting a proxy level. IE running all nodes though a darknet such as i2p. otherwise transactions can be linked to the ip of the origin node

1229  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Nick Szabo aka Satoshi Nakamoto could be the first crypto super billionaire on: February 15, 2016, 07:01:16 AM
The only reason people think Szabo could be Satoshi is that his experience in digital the field of digital currency and his reputation, That's it. There have been nearly 100 people publishing papers on digital money for decades anyone of them could potentially Satoshi. Anyone that thinks some bullshit generic circumstantial evidence has relevance or is proof is ignorant and/or pushing an agenda.

In this case it seem your agenda is to shill for etherum. You could easily make the case that Satoshi whoever he is, is really wealthy but that doesn't have anything to do with ETH which seems to be what your real motive for this topic is. I thought you were a solid bitcointalk contibuter but now i see you are just one of the trolls.
1230  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Nick Szabo aka Satoshi Nakamoto could be the first crypto super billionaire on: February 13, 2016, 07:51:10 PM
There is no way Nick Szabo is/was Satoshi,

1) they are not ideologically aligned, Satoshi would not go on to work for a banking lobby like RC4
2) If he was Satoshi he wouldn't have rage-quit bitcoin like he did.
3) Satoshi is estimated to own over 1,000,000 early bitcoins that have never been moved. If Satoshi really gave up on bitcoin he would have at least sold some of these,


Also back in November 2013 when bitcoin was 1000+ everyone was talking about how Satoshi was the first bitcoin billionaire

ExchangeD.I2P is back online Smiley


Unfortunately the wrong type of ram was ordered. So we were unable to upgrade at this time. Server guy ordered new ram that is compatible and will upgrade when that arrives. Probably in about 2 weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience. Sad

Quote from: some_guy_on_the_internet

I suggested that bitcoin implement p2p transactions and a proof of work blockchain ( (at v 0.1.x if i rember it correctly)
and i am happy that it become reality.

am i 1337 yet?
1233  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ExchangeD.I2P Darknet CryptoCurrency Exchange on: February 13, 2016, 01:54:46 AM
we will go down for 24hours from 2PM friday until 2PM Saturday UTC universal time for hardware testing and upgrades


I've just been looking at it (exchanged.i2p -- http://exchanged.i2p/en/home) and I like the interface, but I don't see BCN, etc. there yet.  Eagerly looking forward to the introduction of these. 

Hey, we will add Bytecoin *soon*
1234  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history) on: February 13, 2016, 01:53:25 AM

I suggested to implement (I2p / Freenet) to ANC before ages (at v 0.7.x if i rember it correctly)
and i am happy that it become reality.

Lul wut? Anoncoin supported i2p since day 1, i'm waiting to see you dig up that quote.
Im glad you support anoncoin, but lets not say things that are not true

Ram upgrade will happen this weekend or next week, i will update when i know when exactly
1237  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ExchangeD.I2P Darknet CryptoCurrency Exchange on: January 24, 2016, 07:31:53 AM
The exchange is fully functional however we are reaching a RAM bottleneck. We have disabled the NuBits wallet because that was taking up a lot of memory and does not have any deposits and have ordered ram upgrades.

When the RAM arrives we will go down for a few hours for a hardware hardware. I will update here when I know the specific time for the hardware upgrade.

Also we are working on integrating CryptoNote coins, and have made some progress with that, after the hardware upgrades we add bytecoin, monero and magnatoj
1238  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HempCoin #HMP $HMP backed by public company $RMTN on: January 21, 2016, 12:07:27 AM
HempCoin was just listed on C-Cex.com, the first exchange to list it... this is huge for HempCoin and $RMTN the public company that is backing the crytocurrency with shares.

So this is a corporate coin, eh?

Dont knock it, this is the new fad, new coins launching everyday backed by amazon payment processors, piss, and alpaca socks

Any luck on finding new developer to assist w/ code review and hardfork?

CS has fixed most of the bugs and we are doing a testnet now, if you want to participate join our dev channel on irc2p.

For its first four years online, a portion of every mined Zcash coin will go directly to Wilcox’s Zcash company and a smaller portion to a non-profit he’s creating to oversee the Zcash code and community longterm. Wilcox says that he plans for 1 percent of Zcash’s currency to ultimately go towards that non-profit, and 10 percent to be paid to the for-profit startup.
sounds like the typical instiminted story, nothing more than a money making scheme imo, i have great respect for some of the people involved but have they removed the backdoor ?

with ZeroCash, the people than create it can exploit the initial parameters and sign bogus transactions to give themselves unlimited free coins, it looks like instead of finding a solution for this, they have embraces it as a means of making themselves rich Sad
