Build fails on Xubuntu 14.04 64. All deps in build-unix.md are installed.

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 ...
Code:
$ ./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.)

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

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

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

1705  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools) | Testing New Masternodes on: March 16, 2015, 04:07:42 PM
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

FWIW Dept:

Bitcredit has a masternode implementation on test:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=896133.msg10781381#msg10781381

In this implementation they would appear to be termed “bank nodes” and this description hints at functionality:

“Your node earns you between 1000 and 2000 BCR a week for processing tx, escrow and acting as insurer of large transactions.”

Bitcredit github source for code mavens.

the coin distribution is a big "?" for the coin

In what respect? I'd be grateful if you could outline the perception.

Cheers

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.

1709  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Securitycoin [SCSY] | Bittrex and IRC in Wallet | Ccex | Community | VPOS on: March 16, 2015, 12:24:16 PM
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.)

Good idea with the issues list.
We need more activity near the code.  Smiley

Already raised and closed one issue (send coins page now shows balance of unlocked coins): https://github.com/spreadcoin/spreadcoin/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed

1711  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools) | Testing New Masternodes on: March 16, 2015, 03:17:20 AM
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/2

1712  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [DSH] Dashcoin (Cryptonote, automated source) on: March 15, 2015, 12:27:23 PM
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.

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

Any news on this?

1715  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how to spot scam coin? on: March 11, 2015, 01:14:01 PM
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).

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.

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.  Grin
You are right deadcoin has no future. Not sure why they thought a name like deadcoin would work.

Oops.

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:

1720  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where can i find source code for XC ? on: March 08, 2015, 10:01:06 AM
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
