It's 3 minute blocks - btc is 10 minutes. You're shown to be wrong already from that fact alone.
You use a coin based on bitcoin code because it's easier to maintain and keeping it updated. Why would you make things more complicated than they have to be?
If you think it offers nothing over bitcoin, then just don't buy it. Why do you even care?
I would argue these are merely emission parameters - a block is targeted to be emitted once every three minutes rather than, regardless they are simply constants in the code. I already said I don't care, I just like to troll, but using a coin based on bitcoin doesn't mean you can't offer anything above or beyond bitcoin or that hasn't already been done. Namecoin offers name services, Huntercoin offers a human mineable game alongside traditional mining, Myriadcoin offers five algos allowing for people to mine with ASICS, GPUs, or CPUs, Dash (which I'm not a fan of) at least offers some features not available in other Bitcoin forks - built in coinjoin, masternodes, etc. If you fork and add features or technology, it's a coin based on Bitcoin; if you fork and change a couple constants, it's a shitcoin clone.

2 years emisson is 'really fast'? You're not even making any sense, sorry.
You guys don't even show the emission curve on your self-moderated ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527500.0
At least you guys make it into the questionable category not extreme caution here: http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=a_massive_investigation_of_instamines_and_fastmines_for_the_top_alt_coins#unobtanium
But still, I agree with the devtome author when he says "However, the coin does have a rather fast reduction of coins per block. The bitcointalk thread 141) states that the PoW subsidy halves every 102,000 blocks, which as you can see above, the coin generation went from 1 coin/block to .125/block in ~6 months."
Emitting like 80% of all coins in 6 months seems 'really fast', yes.

It's a commmodity and used mainly to store value. Low volume is quite normal for commodities like that as it's not transacted often (some wallets haven't moved in years - #3 didn't move 1 year; #7 didn't move for 2 years; #10 on richlist didn't move for 3 friggin years!) because again: commodity not currency but that's probably too much for you to wrap the head around as you don't seem to have any clue about what money actually is. You seem to think "features" are money  Cheesy
What "features" does your goldbar have? Yeah, that's a yelllow pet-rock too, that's just completely useless. People who think like that will always be broke.
That doesn't prove anything about distribution. If anything I would say that indicates that there were a few folks who mined the shit out of it in the first six months and are now sitting on a pile of coins that amounts a huge portion of the total coin distribution. Gold has the feature of limited supply and not being able to be cloned by any idiot who can change a few constants and launch a new coin every few months, unless you're friends with an alchemist or something.

If you look longterm charts the price is on the floor right now. It's not "propped up" at all right now.
Well, they're propping it up above zero  Tongue

Go to the blockexplorer and know #1 wallet is ex-cryptsy-coldstore currently with the receiver (should be auctioned off to the community within a year or two). The rest are individual holders. I have been with the community for quite some time and been watching movements on the blockchain on a daily basis - i do know what i'm talking about.
You've got 15 to 20 large investors and up to 200 medium investors and countless small ones. That's the deal with it.
Better than most coins, really.
So, basically, just trust you. OK then...

But since you actually outed yourself already as a troll i think we're done here. Everyone should make their own research and come to own conclusions.
Just because I'm trolling your favorite shitcoin doesn't mean it's not a shitcoin. I would suggest everyone to do some research at the devtome site linked above. That guy/those folks do a pretty good job at separating the cream from the crop, so to speak.
1982  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHICH COIN HAS THE LOWEST ANNUAL CREATION INFLATION ? on: July 03, 2016, 09:43:48 PM
It's a clone of bitcoin with nothing changed except the emission parameters. Why would someone want to use a bitcoin clone that offers nothing over bitcoin except emitting all the coins really fast so they're held by a relatively small amount of people? The market seems to agree with me, as the coin has a decent marketcap, ~$500k, but miserable volume, only about $700 in past 24 hours. So, to me it looks like early adopters/large holders propping up the price, but no one wants to join in and buy their "rare and valuable" clone shit.

I do like to trashtalk, but I wouldn't say I'm a hater, I don't care enough to hate, just like to troll a bit on shitcointalk Cheesy

I'm not complaining, just commenting that it's a piece of shit clone with no feature besides handing the majority of the distribution to a serial coin cloner.

1985  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: July 03, 2016, 04:19:24 PM

That chart is erroneous. It doesn't account for the change in blocktime and thus erroneously shows a hashrate that is twice as high as the actual hashrate.
 
 
Damn.  So on the uptick, but not as much as that chart would suggest.  Is there an accurate one somewhere?

Any pool, like http://minexmr.com or http://mro.poolto.be, or an explorer like http://moneroblocks.info/ or http://minergate.com

Your port 55008 is already in use.

Please make sure you are not running any Bitcedi wallet instance.
and check to see if any other application is using that port and let us know.

open command prompt and type
Code:
netstat -a -b
look through the list for " TCP    0.0.0.0:55008 "

Thank you

I had similar issue. I closed daemon and wallet, waited a couple days, and then try to relaunch daemon and got that same error. Reset computer and then it worked, but it seems like when you exit the daemon with command 'exit' it isn't properly closing the port, at least on windows.

Dwarfpool is the major pool I think, and you can just use regular sgminer or whatever version of ccminer has groestl algo.

any guides on how we can start mining using yescrypt?


You can't mine yescrypt until the hard fork, which won't be for at least a couple weeks I think, but then just look for guides to mining bsty, because afaik they and unitus are the only coins that use yescrypt algo.
1989  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Unitus (UIS): 1st Multi-Algo Merge-Mined on: July 02, 2016, 02:38:58 AM
New Myriadcoin release will swap out qubit algo for yescrypt algo:
https://www.reddit.com/r/myriadcoin/comments/4qreu2/myriad_01130_rc1/

This will give miners something else to mine as a base coin when mergemining yescrypt besides bsty, not that there's anything wrong with bsty, I mean maybe there's something wrong with bsty, I don't really know, but Myriad is kickass and I'm psyched to CPU mine some Myriad + Unitus Cheesy
1990  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHICH COIN HAS THE LOWEST ANNUAL CREATION INFLATION ? on: July 01, 2016, 02:20:27 AM
POW - proof of work.
UNO will soon produce less than 2 coins per day.  Even less later.
Has one of the strongest networks in terms of hash (more hash than LTC).

Most proof of stake coins have inflation.
How else is the network maintained?

Yes strange.  Like a dirty little secret, none wish to discuss.
There seems to be no coin compare website that does detailed inflation charts/facts.

Again UNO will produce about 1000 coins (what BTC does in a day) ... over the next 10 years.


That's because Bryce Weiner mined all of the UNO in the first year and now there's nothing left to be emitted on super fast emission curve - front-load emission and mine the shit out of it, then once 99% of coins are mined switch it to merge mining. It's also disingenuous to say that the hashrate is stronger than LTC when UNO uses sha256, which is ~1000x faster than scrypt, which LTC uses. So UNO has a hashrate of ~50 Th/s and LTC has a hashrate of 1 Th/s, if you factor in the 1000x more difficult algo of scrypt versus sha256, then LTC is actually 20x more secure than UNO in terms of hashrate.

On another note, there's plenty of PoS coins without any inflation. See NXT, NEM, QORA, etc.
1991  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The case for merge mined coins on: June 30, 2016, 09:29:50 PM
Security can be an illusion though. For instance, onename (I think) dropped namecoin because it had a high hashrate that was completely dominated by a single pool, f2pool i think. Same deal for huntercoin, which uses both sha and scrypt, but f2pool owns 99% of the hash on both algos I think (tho they've announced they're going to stop mining huntercoin soon).

I think myriadcoin has a nice approach of using five algos, sha and scrypt being merge mined, and the three GPU/CPU algos not. That way a single monster ASIC pool can't own the coin least. Unitus also has an interesting approach of using five algos all GPU/CPU and all merge mined.

Tl;dr - hashrate != security

Good promo for coins)
As I understand, the winners will be calculated on the id?

Winners will have coins sent to the address in their reddit post. You have to guess prices by tonight, then whoever guesses closest to Bitcoin and Monero price at the exact time of Bitcoin halving will win (in about ten days from now). Remember, post by midnight Pacific time tonight, and then don't edit your post.

Looks like maybe an issue with your firewall or something, Tcplistener. Did you block it the first time you opened it? Are you using 32-bit windows? Is there even 32-bit windows 7?

your CLI bullshit sucks to be quite honest, the mining speeds are wayyy too slow. I mean 22 H/s CPU mining?! COME ONE! get that shit up in the kh/s range. Being CPU mineable is one of cryptonight's selling points. also enable solo mining from wallet on this shit where you get the entire block reward. it seems like lately these cryptonight coins have lost the ability to be solo mined. You guys really need to introduce a solo mining pool. and kick them CPU mining speeds up some.

Lol wtf are you talking about? He's just supposed to magically speed up your CPU? If you don't have aes support in your CPU it's gonna suck. I'm mining on an i5 dual core with aes and only get ~50 h/s.

Also, the wallet supports solo mining, that's what I'm doing on my laptop, at least the CLI version does. Launch daemon and sync, launch wallet and type "start_mining #" where # is the number of threads you want to use. I've mined a few thousand, full block reward every time.

C:\bitcediwallet.exe
unable to launch wallet, daemon not running run bitcedid.exe

c:\bitcedid.exe start_mining 2
<long list of args, have no idea how to do executive command line usage, example please?>

Launch bitcedid first and give it an hour or so to sync, then launch wallet and enter mining command in the wallet. You can type 'help' in both programs at any time to see all commands.

abandoned ?

No. Working fine, so no bug fixes required since the last one. If more fixes are required, they will be provided.

Future development plans are under consideration. As I stated (maybe it was the Speculation thread?), I will make an announcement in approximately two weeks.



Does it requires lots of RAM like Monero in the beginning? If yes I would consider it a bug.

It's not nearly as bad because of the 4 minute block time compared to 1 min for most of monero's life, and much lighter usage meaning much less txs so smaller blocks. It will need db implementation someday, but today is not that day (maybe 2 GB RAM usage or so atm).

I think the fact that Cryptopia doesn't simply compile untrusted code rather makes them different from Cryptsy. Wasn't it malicious code injected by some coin (lucky7coin or so) that brought Cryptsy down in the first place..?

Supposedly, but I think it's widely believed that Vern just took the money and ran (to China), and the lucky7 exploit thing was just an excuse/ruse.

Re: Cryptopia, they didn't open an issue on GitHub, and I'm assuming they didn't ask for help on irc. If you come to the land of trolls asking for help at the last minute, don't be surprised if you get trolled.
