To donate lose BTC to grandiose projects scams

Any old JDM from the early 70's.

My avatar is a Hakosuka. That's a tight ride.

Best designed car... ever?  Definitely the Miura (disclaimer: I don't ususally like lambos)

hear hear

When I turned 40 all kinds of things started falling apart

Very creative thinking! Sorta like our own Augur system within Shadow. So rewarding those that answer correctly (vetted by consensus)?

And stable coins BLOW PEOPLE'S MINDS 

They have no idea what to do with consistency.

If a coin doesn't start it's life in a 5 person vacuum, start trading with Mt Kilimanjaro and then die off like the Bonneville salt flats everybody in crypto world are like

Looks tight! Would be sweet in landscape mode with encrypted chat on one side of the screen and products on the other 

I let Lindsey(?) on Cryptsy know about the imminent hard fork last week...
Don't know if it matters seeing as their wallet is in perpetual maintenance mode but whatever...

I spit my coffee out all over my computer while reading this! Thanks!

I want to have fun with litedoge too! Where do you go to have fun with it?

Yes.

ATM ~ half the nodes have upgraded and half are still on old distro. http://shadow.blockexplorer.cc/nodes/

Ah, thanks guys.

I didn't realize TOR was native in Core. Anything special we need to do to access .onion sites or is there a Quick Start Guide to using this browsing feature?

Can we add a "Subscribe" button to the blog?

Why not? I'm thinking about a viable coin that can be used for micro transactions, tipping, gaming, fun...  All kinds of applications.

My logic is this:

• Reduce daily emissions to allow market pricing to be achieved. Currently too many are being generated per day and the market has been at a stalemate (1-2sats) for nearly 6 months!
• A viable tipping coin needs to be easy to give away but harder to earn. It's far too easy to earn LDOGE atm and harder to give them away. We need to flip that.
• 10 Billion coins is plenty for a foundation. Then a reasonable daily emission encourages generosity among the community but also a level of investment opporitunity. At the rate we're at now the only perk to owning LDOGE is to 1. feel like a millionare (1M coins), 2. Double up investment (buy at 1 sat and sell at 2 sat.
• Dogecoin has a 10,000 coin block reward. The coin has been around for 2-3 years and it has too many coins. Price stalled, etc.. Instead of racing to catch up with their crazy Total Coin Supply (100Billion) I think a coin will have a larger impact with minimal rewards and a purpose. It can't be to emulate DOGE in every way.
• 100 LDOGE per block (ultimate goal) is similar to a PoW coin reward. This will still give 135k coins/day but also make stakers think twice about selling right away. It's been proven with coin experiments time and again if you make the reward worthwhile to point your computer towards it but not outlandish where distribution gets discombobulated and top heavy then the chances of survival and community participation increases.
• I own 1.5% of total supply but I think that's too much. Selfishly I'd like to see the max supply level off around 10M within 1 year's time so the price will rise and I can sell some of my supply down to 1% (my typical investment in a coin project I like). Most of my supply is from staking, I'm not selling for 2 sat and I don't want to hold 1.5% (or even more if I keep my computer on) for another year. Just being honest.

With 8 BILLION + of these dogies out in the wild I propose a more drastic completion to these hefty block rewards.

Block 235,000 — 279,999: 24,000 LiteDoge Reward

Block 280,000 — 324,999: 12,000 LiteDoge Reward

Block 325,000 — 369,999: 6,000 LiteDoge Reward

Block 370,000 — 414,999: 3,000 LiteDoge Reward

Block 415,000 — 459,999: 1,500 LiteDoge Reward

Block 460,000 — 504,999: 750 LiteDoge Reward

Block 505,000 — 549,999: 500 LiteDoge Reward

Block 550,000 — 594,999: 300 LiteDoge Reward

Block 595,000 — 639,999: 200 LiteDoge Reward

Block 640,000 — +          : 100 LiteDoge Reward (low to ensure future of coin)

The analysis of this distribution can be found here: http://pastebin.com/SncTpzQM

Essentially, This would add 25% more coins (~2.1 Billion) to the current supply over 46 days.
Then roughly 135,000 coins would be minted everyday for a slowly reducing inflation rate starting @ %.001


My math might be off but I think it's right.
I think for a tipping coin we need to get a reasonable amount of coins in the wild per day (135,000) and get to that number as fast as possible (46 days).
Only then will the markets, community and World react.

EDIT:
My math was off, my apologies.

With the above timeline I propose it would still take 280 days to generate the 25% more coins (~2.1 Billion) and settle into the 100 LDOGE block reward.
Even more reason to get more aggressive with the reward structure! 

- I've always found 6 million coins a much better distribution than 20 million... especially for Proof of Stake coins. I don't know why the choice was made to go from 20 to 6 but, as an investor, I like the decision. I've done the research, vetted it, and nobody is going to change my mind.

- We've already discussed if Proof of Stake becomes a corrupt/broken method of securing/ rewarding the network that the coin can go back to Proof of Work but that is a whole different topic. It can be done but has never been done by anyone to date. Many have gone PoW -> PoS, but not the reverse. If that was the case, another wrinkle to the coding of that would be to increase the coin supply. I'm not going to go into the headache of this, but more attractive rewards will be needed to entice miners to the coin for the PoW network securing.

- I donated for the peer review and I have no regrets or OCD that it hasn't been completed. More documentation is needed, maybe that is something some of us can gather for the team?!? I'm sure.

- Crypto investing is a personal battlefield in our hearts. For once we're all in control of our financial reward options and we all get emotional when we talk about our monies. Some of us have doubts with investing in some projects, some of us have peace with the due diligence we've performed on some projects. Both are fine, neither are wrong.

- Forcing one's beliefs on someone else isn't cool. And it's my choice to not listen.

I'm assuming AmericanPegasus was hoping SDC's leading talent would jump over and support XMR. Unlikely, but a genuine plea.
I do know that members of both teams are peers IRL.
