Amazon's "loss" is due to future investments in their company.
This thread is the equivalent of saying you bought a shit ton of solar panels for your home and had a huge loss this year due to construction costs.

Startup time was greatly increased though a coding change, but LevelDB still needs to be implemented. For 2, I agree with Thirty, I always get at least 8 connections. Do you have a common setup, or are using any proxies, etc? 3) You don't like the semi transparent wallet  I will look at the ones you mentioned as it would be great to distance YAC from the common wallet theme for sure. Thanks for the suggestions! 1) You mean greatly improved/reduced, right? 2) I get plenty of connections too. 3) I've always wondered if the transparency is deliberate.  1) Haha, yes, I meant speed of the startup time, but greatly improved/reduced sounds much better! 3) I added the opacity to symbolize the overall transparency that Yacoin represents  I like it, but if someone wants to change it (cough, Thirtybird), here is my code. https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin/blob/master/src/qt/bitcoingui.cpp#L73 |

I already proved that JennaK is a bot.
Hey JennaKBot, have you ever checked out this kool new site called 4chan? You should check it out sometime?
How RU today?
How do you feel?
Do you know how the colour yellow feels today?

Yes.. it did all those things.. It didn't really specialise in those things.
Its like saying Tenebrix was before Litecoin...
Specialize in implementing scrypt-N and SHA-3? I'm not sure I understand the point you're attempting to make. Check our commit history on github over the past 6 months alone if you don't think we're actively progressing. What I mean is that sure it had them in, of sorts (though the n-factor scheduling for yacoin makes it pretty hard to mine with GPUs) - and its more of an scrypt-jane style coin. But ultimately, Yacoin hasn't really taken off anywhere that I know of. The purpose of the N-Factor schedule was INTENDED to make it hard to GPU mine. GPU mining Yacoin is an art. YAC is ultimately a CPU coin though. Scrypt-jane, Scrypt-N and adaptive scrypt are the same thing! Yacoin certainly hasn't yet taken off though for sure. |

Just a few things that would improve YAC overally:
1. Switch database to LevelDB - faster startup and shutdown, less chance for data corruption.
2. Increase number of full nodes that accept incoming connections - currently my node can't find even 8 of them after few hours online.
3. Use different wallet look and feel - check Silkcoin or N5coin, integrated blockchain explorer and statistics are just awesome addition.
4. Aliases - user creates an alias and assigns YAC address to it via special transaction, later to send coins to user one could just use alias instead of normal YAC address.
1. - I think that was done a long time ago 2. - I had 20 connections after 30 minutes and now 49 after 12 hours 3. - Great ideas, just need someone to volunteer to write them 4. - Seems problematic and memory intensive - everyone with an open wallet would need to be scanning all aliases on the off chance they're sending it to one. Plus, nothing like having alias squatters!  Has any coin implemented this? Startup time was greatly increased though a coding change, but LevelDB still needs to be implemented. For 2, I agree with Thirty, I always get at least 8 connections. Do you have a common setup, or are using any proxies, etc? 3) You don't like the semi transparent wallet I will look at the ones you mentioned as it would be great to distance YAC from the common wallet theme for sure.

The female brain lacks the processing power to allow a woman to read, and girls also lack the upper body strength that would allow them to depress a power button or switch for enabling electronic devices. Due to these, and numerous other limitations, girls do not use Bitcoin.
Screw you You failed a simple Turing test and are therefore a bot. Mods, please delete JennaK account. |

yacoin is outdated
By your logic, so is Bitcoin |

Very cool. Sunny King is a true pioneer in this world, and seems like a genuinely good person as well.

I've seen a few threads on here introducing "new", "innovative" or otherwise "awesome" coins that all attempt to take credit for
inventing scrypt-N, scrypt-jane, adaptive-scrypt, etc...
Actually, Yacoin was the first to introduce scrypt-N to the cryptocoin world in May of 2013. Scrypt-jane was invented by a github user named floodyberry
as a flexible implementation of Colin Percival's scrypt.
Using floodyberry's scrypt-jane lib, Yacoin was also the first coin to use SHA-3. In this case, as a hashing function.
In addition, Yacoin was the third proof of stake coin released after Peercoin and Novacoin. Yacoin, at a current N-Factor of 15 is the first to chart such territory and is certainly ASIC proof. Obviously, many of you are here to make a quick "buck" and don't care about such things, and to that end... good luck to you I suppose. Still, I want to set the record straight.
Thanks. This has been a public service announcement from your local friendly neighbourhood Yacoin dev.

I'm going to throw some hash power at this. What plans do you have for the future of Cure?

Good. No use in turning this into a course on social engineering I know what company it is now anyways... Though I am not telling. |

Yacoin is the best coin you never heard of.
