Well, you may have wallet ready in some weeks time, but I have my ANC on Craptsy and CEX, need to get them out of both, but without wallet?


you can get the anoncoin-qt software on your own computer https://wiki.anoncoin.net/Download or use the ExchangeD.I2P wallet

both work right now, the upcoming 969 code is just a new version of anoncoin.

Cryptsy knew 100% that hashlets were fake long before getting involved. This is not opinion, it is fact. I was informed of this by those is a high position there who, for now, will stay unnamed. This was long before PayCoin was even listed there. My disdain for the shitty people (as people) working there makes this an even sweeter moment because I know exactly what will happen next  Wink

I tried telling you guys this literally two years ago, called this exact outcome, and was called a liar and troll. Maybe next time you will believe when I say something
Go away troll! Garza is going to give us $20 per XPY when he gets out of prison! He's going to hide all of his millions in his gaping *expletive* after he becomes Green Mile's next biggest fanboy. Wink

that's really the beauty of cryptocoins, you can put 20million dollars of bitcoin on a tumbdrive and shove it up your ass. No other monitary system lets you store so much value in one rectum Smiley

course you got to deal with the volatility. i cant imagine many people can handle these massive swings in value, without busting a blood vessel in the lining or something .

Isn't Cryptsy highly involved with Paycoin?  Could this be one reason why they're having insolvency problems (allegedly)?

Are they planning an exit and making a run for it?

its all speculation this point but it is safe to say cryptsy is balls deep in shit and it seems to only be going south from here.

im curious but how does this compare to other public figures that has raised money for their projects like ethereum and bitshares? aren't they in the similar boat with a risk of getting in trouble with the SEC? now i can understand why some coin founders would want to stay anonymous or just disappear after creating the coin.
this lawsuit is about his cloud mining ponzi scheme, they havent even started with paycon indictment (yet).

The address itself should work, as I tested to withdraw from Vircurex for some time ago

K1773r used to work with the vircurex dev so he could explain better, but from what i heard, the exchange owner sold it to someone else. then it got "hacked" and froze all withdrawals back in 2014.

One thing with Anoncoin, is that I always fear the withdrawals. Can you guys tell me what could be wrong, since I made this withdrawal from Cryptsy yesterday (just to test that they still are able to send ANC):

Address: AZRaYktZMQdc3V1zN1BQiLARVgJjrHPKHb
Amount: 35.00000000 ANC
Confirmed: Yes
Request date: 2015-12-01 15:01:00
Processed: Yes
TrxID: d93c72885162c1022f95589fc3058f1f6f7b20cfd1ee8e872c7a85f91127878a @ 2015-12-01 15:06:10

But the transaction is not seen on anoncoin blockchain. The address itself should work, as I tested to withdraw from Vircurex for some time ago (Yes, vircurex is valid in this sense. I actually have more faith in vircurex that what I have in Cryptsy).

Since Cryptsy says the transaction is processed, how long should I wait until I can actually see it on the blockchain? Why is there such a damn huge delay for ANC always?

You are not the only one with craptsy issues at the moment and they have a long history of fucking up anoncoin withdrawals.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT  ___________________________________________ ) SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) v. ) Case No. ) HOMERO JOSHUA GARZA, ) GAW MINERS, LLC, and ) ZENMINER, LLC (d/b/a ZEN CLOUD), ) JURY TRIAL DEMANDED ) Defendants. )  ___________________________________________ )
COMPLAINT
 Plaintiff United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“the Commission”) alleges the following against Defendants Homero Joshua Garza (“Garza”), GAW Miners, LLC (“GAW Miners”), and ZenMiner, LLC (d/b/a ZenCloud) (“ZenMiner”), and hereby demands a jury trial:
SUMMARY OF THE ACTION
 1.
 
Defendants used the lure of quick riches from a twenty-first century payment system known as virtual currency to defraud investors. Though cloaked in technological sophistication and jargon, defendants’ fraud was simple at its core – defendants sold what they did not own, and misrepresented the nature of what they were selling. 2.
 
From approximately August 2014 through December 2014, defendants sold – to over 10,000 investors – investment contracts representing shares in the profits they claimed would be generated from using their purported computing power to “mine” for virtual currency. “Mining” for virtual currency means applying computer power to try to solve complex equations that verify a group of transactions in that virtual currency. The first computer (or collection of
Case 3:15-cv-01760 Document 1 Filed 12/01/15 Page 1 of 23
 
 2 computers) to solve such an equation is awarded new units of that virtual currency. This process is known as “mining,” and the computer equipment used in this process, and the humans who own it, are known as “miners.” 3.
 
Defendants sold shares in the returns from their purported mining operations, via investment contracts that they named “Hashlets.” Hashlet contracts entitled their purchasers to a share of the profits from defendants’ purported “hashing power,” or the computing power (measured in megahash per second), that defendants purportedly devoted to virtual currency mining. In reality, defendants sold far more Hashlets worth of computing power than they actually had in their computing centers. There was no computer equipment to back up the vast majority of Hashlets that defendants sold. 4.
 
Defendants earned about $19 million in revenue from their sales of Hashlets. 5.
 
Defendants Garza and GAW Miners made many false and misleading statements about GAW Miners’ virtual currency mining operations to potential and actual investors. For example, they misrepresented: a.
 
that all of the Hashlets of computing power purchased by investors would be  pooled together to engage in virtual currency mining, and that investors’ returns, or “payouts,” would be calculated based on the success of those collective virtual currency mining operations;  b.
 
that buying a Hashlet would allow investors to mine virtual currency without the expense and expertise that would be required to purchase and maintain their own virtual currency mining equipment; c.
 
the profitability and life-span of Hashlets; d.
 
the extent of GAW Miners’ mining activities; and how the payouts for Hashlets were derived. Garza and GAW Miners knew that each of these statements was false at the time it was made. 6.
 
Defendants’ Hashlet sales had many of the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme. Because defendants sold far more computing power than they owned and dedicated to virtual currency mining, they owed investors a daily return that was larger than any actual return they were making on their limited mining operations. Instead, investors were simply paid back gradually over time, as “returns,” the money that they, and others, had invested. As a result, some investors’ funds were used to make payments to other investors. Most Hashlet investors never recovered the full amount of their investments, and few made a profit. 7.
 
Through the activities alleged in this Complaint, defendants have engaged in fraud in connection with the purchase or sale of securities, in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and various subparts of Rule 10b-5 thereunder; and fraud in the offer or sale of securities, in violation of various subparts of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). Defendants have also engaged in the offer and sale of unregistered securities, in violation of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act. 8.
 
Based on these violations, the Commission seeks: a.
 
the entry of a permanent injunction prohibiting defendants from further violations of the relevant provisions of the federal securities laws;  b.
 
disgorgement of defendants’ ill-gotten gains, plus pre-judgment interest; and c.
 
the imposition of civil penalties due to the egregious nature of defendants’ violations...


can't say you didn't see it coming.

pure guy who dumped 20k today, he will never be able to buy back cheaper
sucks to be that guy, we are working out the last kink in the 969 code, should be ready for a public testnet in the next few weeks

hi guys, my pool had a bunch of blocks found the other day when a few miners jumped on, however they are sitting in pending.. how many confirms do mined blocks need?

when i run a getinfo, i dont see immature coins, just a balance of 0.



did you try listransactions?
1371  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history) on: November 23, 2015, 04:52:45 AM
Anoncoin too late - no innovation coin destiny is unclear

-samsunk

That is the best, while other coins are to big for insane raises, ANC still have potencial to pay my mortage one day.
Can Darkcoin go 20x up now?

Bitcoin is at a few billion usd and lots of people think we will break all time highs and go up another 100x... eventually.
Anoncoin will finish the zerocoin implementation... eventually.

We are making progress though. I am impressed by the teams dedication. ATM running a 969 testnet rooting out the last few bugs.

trade api is done, check out our sample python bots scripts

Trading Bot Xample I2P link
or over clearnet (kills kittens)
or tor


note that this api can securely work without I2P using clearnet inproxies ONLY with our end 2 end encrypted API. we dont run these an inproxies but as long you use our keys, which are in the default settings nobody can steal your moneyz. Except that your not anonymous. Every clearnet connection kills a kitten so we dont recommend it

1374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [Poll] What anonymous coin will succed? on: November 16, 2015, 10:04:32 PM
Anoncoin already has testnet i2pd integration. Moneroe is at the least months behind in that regard. But your right,  ZC delays suck ass through a stirring straw
1375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How many altcoins do you hold? on: November 14, 2015, 08:28:14 PM
Im anouncing a new coin called Notationcoin.

total coins are 10^1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
at each block having (every block is a halving), miner rewards go up by
Code:
n^10^10
where n is current block payout


Now I got more coins than everyone else combined Tongue
1376  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [Poll] What anonymous coin will succed? on: November 14, 2015, 08:24:54 PM
IMO this is going to be drawn out over a couple of years. But ANC FTW. WOOO!!!! \o/

Seriously though who knows, it might be a shitty implementation with solid PR. Its to early to tell, though ill put money down it aint Keycoin
1377  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is the best altcoin exchange POLL on: November 14, 2015, 08:10:11 PM
Saying everyone trusts Satoshi because they trust Bitcoin is an extremely weak argument.

OK, but that's not what I said. Its a straw-man http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/straw-man.html

I would work on my attention to detail before insinuating that other people lack it. But then again without attention to professionalism why bother?


This argument has now gone beyond the scope of the thread, lets stop.
1378  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is the best altcoin exchange POLL on: November 14, 2015, 08:00:06 PM
Listen Im not really interested in have a flame Woar. Lets just say, you got your point across and i got my point across and call it a day.
1379  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is the best altcoin exchange POLL on: November 14, 2015, 07:58:29 PM

PS: chained VPN > Tor


Don't even get me started...
1380  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is the best altcoin exchange POLL on: November 14, 2015, 07:46:47 PM
*sigh* this is one of those conversations... Cry

If you read my response again I never actually accused you directly of accusing me directly of being a scam.  So if you're not accusing me of accusing you of accusing me of being a scam, attention to detail and professional communication is not your strongest suit.

But , lets not play these, he said, she said games. Its possible to build trust while being pseudonymous, I have a reputation going back a while, if you care to investigate. Satoshi was anonymous yet people trust him. I would say he has quite a impressive following despite the fact nobody knows he is.

But whatever you clearly don't want to use it, I wish you the best.


Accusing me of running a scam has no weigh, I am committed to transparency, if you have any question feel free to PM me I would be happy to talk to you and answer any questions to the best of my abilities.

I'm sorry that you don't like how I talk, if you don't like my service. Feel free to stick to poloniex by all means. Still i think the concerns I point out are valid. Just because currently they allow deposits now it doesn't stop them from changing their ID rules or blocking tor nodes without notice like they did last time. They are operating a Finsen business, how long do you expect it will take?

They would never, what? Blocking tor exit nodes or forcing accounts associated with them to register is in the interest of the financial authorities. If you think you are anonymous using clearnet financial services, that they would never betray you, then I have nothing to sell. But, did they give notice last time? Just a thought.

Also pointing out that we have been hacked less times (0) than they have (50k USD ). We have security measures in place like ACID databases. I'm sure they do now after the fact. And yes they paid them back, they were pretty transparent about it.

Its clear that poloniex is moving to become more established and offer more mainstream services, that kind of business will inevitably turn its back on the privacy community.





If you read my response again I never actually accused you directly of being a scam. I said you were untrustworthy which is 100% fact (anons are untrustworthy be definition). So if you're not a scam, attention to detail and professional communication is not your strongest suit.

Satoshi invented a trustless monetary system, yet here you are asking people to trust you.
