that is probably the best strategy anyway, especially for all shareholders.  Ideally, I'd like to go to the other exchanges to dump the latest poop and send the earnings to mcxnow for actually investing in hopeful coins, actual trading (not auto-dump) and interest. Pretty much what I'm already doing but there are still some coins missing, which as of today we know will be solved in time. |

they offer nothing new. only new devs and new names. only very few of them offer new functions. CPU coins, even when they are as awesome as primecoin, almost cannot succeed due to botnets etc.
my best guess is that coins with at least moderate marketing and new functions/good devs (see anoncoin or megacoin) have a SHOT. that's it. a shot.
the bullion is doing excellent marketing stuff. that is another route to go.
90% of the coins here are just complete copycats that changed some parameters and image files in the client. you cannot really produce eternal value this way again and again and again and expect it to succeed in 100% of the cases. suckers can only invest so much money in tulips before they smell the bacon.

great stuff. more coins is pretty much the only thing mcxnow still needs, rest is already top notch imho.
especially a good initiative to start rebranding it to Peercoin instead of peepeecoin.
i would love to see mcxnow only add coins that somehow added some innovation... if i look at all the gutter filth at coinchoose only these few tingle my memories for doing something inherently new:
megacoin (bitcoin client code for scrypt coin, new difficulty adjustment algorithm)
anoncoin (tor stuff)
florin was the first that added transaction comments (I think!) but that function was quickly stolen / added as well by others
freicoin was the original demurrage coin I guess, but not sure if that should count.
just new algos, but again, not sure how innovative that actually is (i.e. primecoin is a nicer gimmick):
sifcoin (and not quark/secure/cthulucoin) used the mixed cpu algo first.
yacoin used scrypt-jane first
please correct me if you have some better knowledge for some of them. but if I am not mistaken all the other coins are more or less the same poop - some of them are just "better" than others because of the dev's ability (and motivation) to add new stuff, more services, better name, marketing, and fairer launches. But still rather boring.

offer cc/paypal payment and there won't be any further discussion if it's a scam or not.
easy as that.
this needs to be addressed. With all this praise and the word "professional" flying around, I cannot see how this it not offered. This is an actual "red flag". |

why no "inofficial mac version" links in [ANN] thread and on the megacoin page? kimoto needs some reliable slaves for that stuff while he is busy with black magic coding.

Primecoin with a little time. It just broke two more world records this week. Note that EFF has $150,000 and $250,000 reward for certain primes, not to mention the national attention when(not if) this happens.
are we finding new primes? |

I'd be incredibly surprised if this turns out to NOT be kingcoin v2.

1 min block target 10 per block halves every two years difficulty adjusts once per day (lulz) 30,000,000 coins total windows client mirror: https://mega.co.nz/#!QkZW3IzJ!OlVjj182WUMsmnQTA0nJKju-NWsuZccDK6tApy15drI looks like chinese cthulu coin some more info on "scrypt-pgc"? if it's actually new you should advertise it as such. not that in the end we all find out it was GPU mineable by the creators all along (hello @ kingcoin) |

then we just need luxurycoin or LVcoin or MianZiCoin or something like that

ok, bitstamp is simply taking too long - can someone quickly send me those 100 XRP to r9wDDLi5DuN2Sa1FQBddAXAN27QNAueSEA in return for 0.01 BTC? I'll send first if your username isn't scamperor with 3 posts etc. |
|
|
|
is it normal that bitstamp takes forever to send the xrp you bought to your ripple wallet or doesn't do it at all? been a few hours now since i bought some for $1. Bitstamp history: Bought 129.062500 XRP for 1.25 USD. Sent to r9wDDLi5DuN2Sa1FQBddAXAN27QNAueSEA in transaction None  also, that is not 0.0086 $ per ripple. |

Hmmmmm. I still like the idea of more SHA coins. Not sure I like the idea of the equivalent of 2.2 Million block premine, though...
Either way, might do a p2pool for this fella.
isn't pow/pos p2pool nightmare mode? |
|
|
|
|
I think the problem is that we cannot build p2pools with pos/pow coins. will have to wait until someone who can do regular pools comes along. or someone knows a foolproof tutorial how to set those up. I only know how to do p2pools. D:

so the only way for me to buy ripple with BTC is to boot into linux and build the client myself...?
No, you can create a wallet here: https://ripple.com/client/#/registerYou'll need a Bitstamp account and about 100 XRP to initially fund your account. You can buy 103 XRP from Bitstamp for $1. Then within Bitstamp, go to withdrawal -> Ripple and follow the "trust this address" link. Then in your Ripple wallet you can go to Advanced -> Trade to set Bitstamp as the issuer for XRP/BTC and you'll see the order book. thanks a lot! got it now. |

is there a thread somewhere where we collect different paramters (sievesize etc) for different CPU models, as it is usually the way with scrypt and sha256 GPU wikis? or is it still every man for himself?
|
|
|
|
|
wonderful. if the community actually manages to build efficient GPU versions, sky is the limit.
|
|
|
|
|
nice! can anyone compile windows binaries? my gpus aren't stable under linux and allow no undervolting.
