Build fails on Xubuntu 14.04 64. All deps in build-unix.md are installed. CXX qt/qt_libbitcreditqt_a-poolbrowser.o In file included from qt/poolbrowser.cpp:1:0: qt/poolbrowser.h:21:21: fatal error: QUrlQuery: No such file or directory #include <QUrlQuery>
Basically, whenever you have a wallet that includes a trading page, you can expect to have to specify Qt5 in order to satisfy the JSON handling requirement that arises when interacting with exchange APIs. For me, there are some minor file permission issues with the latest commit, so ensure that autogen.sh, share/genbuild.sh and src/leveldb/build_detect_platform are all executable. Then you should be okay to run ... $ ./autogen.sh $ ./configure --with-gui=qt5 $ make
(If you can live without wallet portability, you can link to the ubuntu distro libdb-5.* libs by using the incompatibility directive: --with-incompatible-bdb.) Cheers Graham

The factom.org team page references a “Chairman of the Board”, implying that there is a registered legal entity behind the scenes. Is that the case? if so, could you indicate the country of registration and the registration id?
TIA
Cheers

Thanks for this head's up!
I wish I could comment in more technical depth but I'm still building an understanding of the implementation strategy. Cheers Graham

While I developed the pool for the coin and had a closer look at the blockchain, I noticed that there were large farms mining this coin, of course there were also a few solominers, but the biggest amount of coins always went to the already big wallets (with private pools) so the distribution was even worse than with other coins which had "normal" distribution through pools.
Thanks for the detail, most useful. The data is all recorded in the blockchain, is amenable to analysis and now that I've got some idea what patterns to look for (thank you), I can get a better understanding of how the distribution has played out thus far. Cheers Graham

That makes things even clearer ;-)
No, I'm still in the dark about what you're referencing, could you at least provide a link to one of the questions about the distribution? Cheers Graham

the coin distribution is a big "?" for the coin
In what respect? I'd be grateful if you could outline the perception. Cheers Graham

If it is what has happened then we do not want Mr. Spread to be a part of this coin for obvious reasons.
From a pragmatic view, it'd be impossible to prevent. He may even be currently active in Spreadcoin but using a different pseudonym. Cheers Graham

I decided to leave users decide whether to install a wallet detected as Trojan or not. Hence, i have built a wallet without IRC. the result on Virus Total is 0/57 (this means no virus detected).
Good call, seems fairly conclusive as to the origin of the alerts. (I'm in two minds about the UI advantage of an in-wallet IRC chat facility. SCSY re-uses a pre-existing implementation which is very basic, offers less functionality than a basic dedicated IRC app and has rather an off-putting initialisation bug that obliges users to be tolerant of a temporarily-scrambled rendering. I find myself wondering how many people actually use the tab to interact with IRC in preference to using one of the many IRC-specific apps. I get the sense that you're either familiar with IRC and a moment's use of the tab will prompt you to abandon it in favour of an actual IRC app or you're unfamiliar with IRC and the limitations of the app can then become overwhelmingly negative.)Cheers Graham

Quick question about wallets. Do they still only have "Ballance:" and "Unconfirmed:" on the main screen? One feature I like is having a sum function ...
Yes, only Balance, Unconfirmed and Immature totals atm. Good suggestion to add a locked-in-node balance, I added it to the issues list: https://github.com/spreadcoin/spreadcoin/issues/2Cheers Graham

What is the coin's "community"?
Is it anyone who holds x amount of the coin? Is it anyone who has ever hold any amount of the coin? Is it anyone who has posted x number of posts in the coin's ANN thread? Is it anyone who has ever posted anything in the ANN thread? Is it anyone and everyone in the world who decides to say they are?
Or is it the official dev (team)?
Try defining “official” in a p2p context. The adjective could be replaced by “farm fresh” with no loss of meaning. At core, it's a rights grab by an informal group of individuals acting in concert. I'm paying close attention to who controls the money to pay for the lawyers because it's that person/group who is in the driving seat. Bald summary: the message from Darkcoin is “you don't actually own what we want so we're taking legal action to reserve it for our exclusive future use” and it's unsurprising that people are starting to speculate on the possible efficacy and ramifications of this business tactic. For me, any exploration of this issue has to start with the question: who has title over the rights?. Engaged / invested in an altcoin with significant marketcap / perceived value? My advice is to start casting around for appropriate organisational templates to drive the creation of a Foundation (or some other collectively-owned entity with a recognised legal status and process) in which you can vest the ownership of the core rights (code, online and offline resources, etc) and which can hire professionals to advance its objectives as and when they are needed. Cheers Graham

Very useful post, ... I am curious about how you calculate your cost-average, I'd like to know more ...
I'm glad you appreciate it! I keep an Excel spreadsheet of all the coins I hold and all the ones I've previously held to track my portfolio size and trading profits. ... Thank you for the description. The precise detail is especially valuable as it informs a hobby-horse of mine, trying to build a “wannabe rich list” with a more sophisticated value model than simply “holdings * current price”. Thanks again. Cheers Graham

I'm Looking into this matter as we speak , allow me 24 hours to conclude the investigation and post a conclusion.
Any news on this? Cheers Graham

does not every coin have premine this is bad?
Premine not necessarily bad practice or indication of scam when used to cover costs of coin logistics (hosting dns seed nodes, etc). Cheers Graham

My cost-average went up
Very useful post, thanks for the valuable insights. I'm not engaged in Craigscoin, just mildly interested in its progress but I am curious about how you calculate your cost-average, I'd like to know more and would be grateful if you could expand on that a little. Cheers Graham

I dont know what i should be look for how do i know coin is scam? people cant do premine anymore so how are they trying to scam us now? It seem to me every coin is scam how can i avoid this?
This “thought experiment” is the best I can suggest at the moment: https://minkiz.co/posting/Notes: 1. On reflection, I'd give even greater weight to a full commit history, maybe as much as +1500 / -1500. 2, Looks like PoD has turned out to be a busted flush as it seems to provides no effective protection from bad actors. Cheers Graham I might be motivated at some point to check the dimensions/weights by conducting a Repertory Grid analysis for say, a dozen altcoins.

Dead coin has no future. You are right deadcoin has no future. Not sure why they thought a name like deadcoin would work. <glinglinglinglingling> Oops. Cheers Graham Edit: ref:“The Hogfather”

Yeah. Really ineresting chart. Where is it from? Still in ninja launch phase but the live interactive rendering is on Minkiz home page: https://minkiz.co/Latest version: (Screengrab of browser-rendered chart via sgvizler using SPARQL results from a query of the DOACC RDF graph https://github.com/DOACC/individuals/) Cheers Graham

as the topic says
The source code has not been made available and it seems clear that there is no intention to release the source code at any point; the ANN refers to a “proprietary protocol”. Cheers Graham
