I don't have too many coins, and sync is going really slow, but I vote for the fastest time to logout. I'll try to get synced and make it official.
1942  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XDN DigitalNote on: July 08, 2016, 04:06:52 AM
What does XMR have that XDN does not? as far as i can see XDN is the far better choice yet it gets very little attention. i mean XMR doesn't even have a GUI wallet and XDN has a great one with crypto messaging and block chain deposits soon to have PoA tied in with it. im not saying XMR is a bad coin im just lost as to why XDN is practically invisible right now.

XDN is likely connected to the BCN devs and had hardly any features when most of the coins were mined (probably by the devs) and it was called ducknote/darknote. By the time all the features arrived (PoA is not here) and it was rebranded almost all coins were mined so distribution is likely horrible. Network hashrate remains low so the network is not very secure.

XDN does not have anywhere close to the level of innovation of XMR (aside from appearance with its GUI).

OpenAlias, LMDB (its creator is now a Monero dev), tail emission, RingCT and more make XMR far more advanced than any other CryptoNote coins.
https://lab.getmonero.org/

A GUI is not everything. Boolberry was the first to have a GUI (and pruning) yet BBR marketcap is mcuh lower than XDN

well as far as distribution goes if you go to bittrex and click on the distribution tab for both xmr and xdn xmr seems to have one wallet with a hugggggge amount of xmr while xdn looks more spread out. maybe there's a good reason for this that i don't know of mind you.


Thats the distribution of coins within Polo in their user's wallets, not the actual distribution. The actual distribution is unknown. Its a private coin, of course you can't know the actual distribution.

well being an annon coin i figured you could see what wallet had what just not who it belonged to. my mistake. why is it we can see their wallets?

It's not their wallet, it's their balance in Bittrex's database. Bittrex only has one wallet, but they show the balance of each user on the site as the coin's "distribution".

My take on it from about a month ago in xdn thread:


This update is truly another proof that XDN is the most advanced cryptonote coin.

I simply don't understand the lack of interest of the community for DigitalNote. Huh

Congrats Dev for your hard work. Smiley

If I had to guess, I would say the very fast emission in conjunction with the name changes.

Imagine that Bitcoin launched with Satoshi having mined 80+% of all coins that would ever exist, rather than 5% or so. Then, a few months later, a series of forks were launched with different emission parameters, different names, and maybe slightly different technology. One of those coins, let's call it SuperFunJumBucks, decided to emit over 85% of all coins that would ever exist in 3 months, while it was pretty unknown, had low community interest, and a silly name. Then SuperFunJumBucks decided to change its name to SecretDarkStealthDollars, and at the same time added some interesting messaging technology; it was still pretty unknown at this point, but during these next few "dark" months it emitted another 8 or 9% of the total that would ever exist to take the emission curve near to completion. Now, it decides to change its name again to VerySeriousHighTechNotes, and adds some other very interesting tech such as locking coins with interest, and maybe in the future Proof-of-activity, more messaging features etc.

IMO, this is essentially the situation Digitalnote finds itself in. If you were interested in the tech behind the coin, why not just fork it, or buy/mine a fork that has a slower emission schedule (bitcedi, for instance), so you don't have to worry about some (the?) early miner dumping 50+% of all coins that will ever exist at some point? (This is not to mention the Monero research paper that suggests if there is some entity controlling a large percentage of the utxo set, that they can deanonymize others ring txs.)

You guys should really make a decision (and stand by it) who to make your god and why.
First it was TPTB_Need_War, but he seems like a fallen god by now watching the interaction between
your community and him (no offence TPTB). And now it seems to be Theymos ?
Well, good luck with that...

Also reading the first three posts in this thread, do i dare say : Monero Civil War ?  Roll Eyes

Why do we need a god? What is this blasphemy? There is no god and we are his prophets. Everyone will do their part, even you.

maybe still a bit of a touchy topic but .. uhm.. do i get paid for doing my part ?

Lol I think you get 72 virgins in the afterlife or something Cheesy

Edit:
And here's my quote for the day:
...
I do think that Monero is probably the best altcoin right now, since it actually does something major that Bitcoin doesn't, even if its scaling is terrible and it'll probably be replaced by a Bitcoin sidechain someday. Achieving Monero-style anonymity for everyone should be a long-term goal of Bitcoin.

Is the guy who ran the script to see how many airdrop addresses have moved their coins still around? Or has it been updated recently?

I'm still sitting on my 287 DCR or whatever, haven't moved any at all, just curious how many other lazy fuckers there are like me.

Not to sure if he is still around at all... You shouldn't of been so lazy though my initial 287 airdrop coins are now 837 coins just from staking with minimal effort from me.

Nice, I mined few hundred and sold when price was higher, but yea, too lazy to figure out all the staking stuff, so just holding airdrop as stash. Maybe I'll grab a few tickets when easy to use GUI comes out...someday... Tongue

Greek translation of OP:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1537784.msg15467350#msg15467350

If it looks good to GreekBitcoin or other Grecians (think it should be good, but doesn't hurt to check), please add it to OP.

I mean its okay, but i dont like some things. Like how "Hall of Fame" or "Ring Signatures" signatures are being translated for example. Personally i dont like well known used phrases or industry specific words/phrases like   "white paper" to be translated at all.

But it got me thinking, if we could create a way to gather all the major news we have, it would be maybe nice to bump those different language threads with those news. Not translated of course but like giving the title translated with an url or something.



I'll pass your comments and suggestions on to the translator. He's pretty nice and seems willing to keep stuff up to date, so he probably is willing add some links every month or so.

Interesting coin,
Somebody could give me mining info?
Any link to pool miner or so?

Thanks!

Check:

https://grs.suprnova.cc



Yup it's better to join suprnova because Dwarfpool has over 51% hashrate: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/grs/#!extraction

I don't think anyone really cares, but I've dropped the fee to 0% currently Smiley

Hopped on it, thanks ocminer Smiley

Looks great, EtherDesign. Is it easy to integrate with all the translations that exist for the current website? Is the mockup/design concept like ready to deploy?

I like the suggestions from snailbrain.

Another option would be to add more algorithms a la myriad, where sha and scrypt are merge mineable and the other three are targeted towards GPUs and CPUs, although this increases the complexity of the system, it reduces the impact if one algo stops finding blocks.

At the other extreme is switching to a single algo like cryptonight that is supposed to be pretty equitable in terms of CPU and GPU performance, or even just scrypt - Doge et al seem to do ok just merge mining with LTC.

I'm not sure about changing distribution of mined to game coins, since the focus of the currency is the game (human mineable), I think at least 50% of rewards should go there, or just keep current setup.

For the short term, someone could rent some hashing power to try to get sha unstuck.
1957  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: LightWallet - a lightweight account manager for Monero on: July 05, 2016, 10:56:04 PM
I just downloaded the client from https://getmonero.org/getting-started/choose , since I want to remove all my Altcoin holdings from various exchanges
However, when I tried to create a wallet it didn't do anything.

System is a clean W10 installation specifically set up just for backing up various coin wallets to cold storage media.
Is there some setting that I need to do beforehand? Other Light Wallets (e.g. Dogecoin) worked out of the box.


You have to have a copy of simplewallet.exe in the same directory with lightwallet, did you download that too and put it there?
1958  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Stellar on: July 05, 2016, 08:42:32 PM
Yes, I meant to other companies, though if you released it publicly there would be little doubt that you haven't sold it, since who would buy something that is released publicly. By claiming that you destroyed it/will destroy it, it's still possible your keeping the data or sharing it selectively, for monetary compensation or perhaps favorable regulatory outcomes by sharing it with alphabet soup agencies. Sorry, don't mean to sound tin foily, just thinking things through while typing.

So, no way to participate without using a Facebook account?
1959  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Stellar on: July 05, 2016, 06:55:02 PM

Do you guys plan to make available the data that you accrue linking people's Facebook accounts to their Bitcoin addresses? It seems like this data might be valuable to some. Is there a way to do this without Facebook?
