What worries me is the possibility that he hasn't been able to find a way to run the wallet on boxes with less ram. That would be a real problem for the future of the coin.

would be nice, but slimcoin as dev needs to be more social

Slimcoin developer better not implement 'patches' that are directly related to coin supply - if you have issues with PoB discuss them here first!!

Abe block explorer, which is widely used is written in python,
but if you look at the scrypt module
https://github.com/CryptoManiac/bitcoin-abe/tree/master/litecoin_scrypt

you'll find that it has .c and .h files and the the python code
reads the hashes produced by them. I wonder if it would be
feasible to modify the code to use NUD's scrypt.c and scrypt.h
instead.

The public key is generated using bcrypt + RTR0 to cut it down into an appropriate length, you can't just hook up nud-qt to a standard blockchain explorer like 99% of other coins. It requires custom work that will take time. Someone needs to come around and translate our custom C++ implementation of bcrypt and RTR0 to PHP first.

RTR0 is significantly stronger than RIPEMD-160 which Bitcoin uses, RIPEMD has already been shown to have many weaknesses. Just to provide an extra security layer over the relatively new RTR0 bcrypt is used as well.

The combination of an old pre-9/11 algorithm with the newest RTR0 lets us enjoy both the benefits of security and minimize the attack vectors. If RTR0 is indeed sabotaged (as many new corporations/algorithms often are as evident by the Snowden revelations.) bcrypt is among the least likely algorithms out there to break.

Is anyone successfully running the linux daemon?  I am a linux newb but trying to learn, good god how the fuck does anyone put up with this nonsense?  I prefer my shit to just work.

Every version of Ubuntu I have tried, I get stuck at something about libboost 1.0.49 or something.  Updating libboost library doesn't help.

On Debian 7.0, I get past the libboost shit, and get stuck at GLIBC_2.15 and GLIBC 2.14 not found.

If you are running the linux daemon, plus let me know your distro and what dependencies were required, because I am lost.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install build-essential libboost-all-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libdb5.1-dev libdb5.1++-dev mysql-server
cd ~
wget http://62.210.217.242/master.zip

I shall recite 10 Hail Edisons every morning until the graceful members of this thread find it in their hearts to forgive my foolish ways. 
What do you say Reflector, NUD,  what do your hearts tell you ?

wow, my apologies, I wasn't aware that Edison felt that way & even chatted with Ford about it. I withdraw my Edison remark, although he did electrocute to scare people away from AC. But submitting that federal reserve proposal took balls. Best of Luck & sorry for being so negative.

I hope the dev has not left. Nothing that the developer of course does not know already. But this coin is just an absolutely wonderful idea that can start a new breed of coins.

Just some thoughts, i hope i didn't get them wrong

- Proof of Burn
      - Technological independence
            - Mining with almost any hardware with the same possibilities as those with advanced one
                  - More spreaded
                  - More fair
                  - Many different hardware configurations could be used for maximum spread and adoption
                            - Mobile phones
                            - Router
                            - TV
                            - Your PC
                            - whatever
            - Asic resistant
                  - Money normally invested on Asics goes directed to the slimcoin economy instead of leaving crypto economy. Can you imagine bitcoin without price selling 3600 coins every day to feed miners?
                  - No need to wait for asic orders to manufacturers (no scams, no delays)
                  - The equipment manufacturers are not on a single country with monopoly on chips (it gives resistance to technology industry manufacturers centralization attacks)
                  - Pool resistant, although there can be POW pools they will never get a 51% of the network
                  - Easy to calculate the ROI of your "POB mining operation" just knowing the total amount of burned coins at the moment and your share of those. You can just burn a few more if needed instantly. No need to montly plans with preorders (available to everyone and easy)
            - Solves the limited number of node problem bitcoin suffers, because everybody can have its own farming factory on its pc, or in its mobile and it is incentivized.
      - Energy independence (no need for a huge industrial area to setup your mining farm, just your wallet is needed)
            - The network can be spreaded all over the world, not just on zones with cheap electricity (it gives resistance to cheapest electricity centralization attacks & it also gives maximum and fair node spread)
            - Ecological
      - It could be the coin for the "Internet of things" where the blockchain trust technology could be adopted for any device, your fridge, your mobile, etc.
      - Proof of Burn shows the path for other ideas like "investment" possiblities on the same wallet. You just burn and you get some ROI attached to the same mining protocol. Maybe even a lend/borrowing model could be added?
      - Maybe even the proof of burn could be used to add anonimity. You have a second button on your wallet "anonimize". and you press it and enter the number of coins to anonimize, those get burned and you receive in a totally different address on the same wallet, other burned coins.  After all there is a huge repository of burned coins (well disregard if it does not make too much sense)

Really really interesting coin,

Please developer continue with this one, it is just an awesome idea.

and.. block explorer is down
not that it ever worked correctly... addresses display was wrong

buy now and thank me later 

why everyone wants to have anonymous trsansactions? are you selling drugs and weapons ?

How long?
It seems about 8 hours. Still not in balance.
