Well I can see 2A supporters seeing crypto as an alternative regardless of whether they know about Guncoin or not. The question then is how can Guncoin be made especially attractive to them.

Not knowing about crypto in general is first obstacle, and then volatility is the second. The US dollar seems to be stable to most people, whereas cryptos are not really.

A platform/blockchain/whatever that offers stability, or could possibly be stabilised, might be more attractive to some people. This reduces its attractiveness to some crypto investors wanting everything going to the moon. But Guncoin wasnt made for that.

I think something like a tether or XRP (which Im under the possibly wrong impression can be price stabilised through supply control) might help with stability. I guess people might complain about centralisation, or of the ability of the biggest stake holders to dump and run - Ripple tried to gain confidence through locking some up. http://www.coindesk.com/ripple-pledges-lock-14-billion-xrp-cryptocurrency/

Advertising on some patriot news sites and blogs might be an idea to consider too as relaunch/revision approaches.

Yeah... All ONE of them... And there was the guy on the previous page who had 3 posts and was complaining about sync.

Because people interested in crypto are interested in every single coin and therefore must post a thousand times before they become interested in Verge.

Get real.

I don't know. I just saw it on the unitystream pool website.

New logo

BOScoin is coming out in October. It is pretty similar to Eth. But yeah, gotta wait until October to check it out. They have an active Slack though, maybe you could get in touch with them.

Also UBIQ and Verge could be options. UBIQ is an Eth fork I think, and Verge is supposed to be anonymous and the dev is cool and active and I think adding a token system.

You can request to have your pool added here

https://bitmakler.net/mining_Rabbitcoin-RBBT__pools

Blockchain (RabbitCoin.zip) download here http://www.mediafire.com/?jeuhonmmcrfxr

But the blockchain is only 1.2gb. Just wait for connections and it'll sync after a while. The first time I installed the wallet it took a while to find connections, but now it finds them quickly.

Also, it will take a while to load the wallet after you have the blockchain. Loading blockchain index will take a while, but just wait and it'll work eventually. Maybe 15 minutes.



With this rabbitcoin.conf in the Appdata/Roaming/Rabbitcoin directory I get 6+ connections.

2000% more please 

Novaexchange and Cryptopia.


Thinking about potential coin value more, I think that the best we can hope for is it to be similar to the Korean won. 1,000 KRW = $1.

So in the Korean system, cents are not important, everything is counted in won. Thus it is better to think of it like KRW when considering its value. So if it were 0.001, this would mean that 1,000 RBBT are worth $1 USD.

Unless/until the current dev relaunches it, its just gonna be mine and hold. There actually is a new dev, but I dont know why they have been silent on the forums.

If Rabbit were to become popular, what do you think the ceiling is on price?

Max coins is 100,000,000,000.

Block rewards still bring in a lot of coins, but it'll dry up eventually. Block rewards after block 600,000 will go back up to 10,000, but if it were popular it'd likely be big pools mining them and thus sharing the coins among big groups. Still, I think 10,000 coin block rewards could contribute to a low coin value.

Transaction speed and confirms are very quick.

The block chain is still small. Will there ever be a risk of block chain bloat (that prevents many people from accessing the wallet)? Given we don't have an online or web wallet, that could be an issue in the future.

Perhaps we should pool some coin for community bounties..?

The Verge wallet on Cryptopia has been out of order for a few days.

Wallet for Win here http://www.mediafire.com/file/c0ewn95309buq5u/RabbitCoin_win_1.0.0.1.zip
Make sure to unzip/extract using 7zip, or there may be corruption issues.
(I think that wallet is still the same as the one in the OP.)


Regarding syncing and peers, just leave it for a while, it should connect eventually. But be sure to add those extra nodes/servers I listed above to the rabbitcoin.conf file in appdata/roaming/rabbitcoin


Miners for AMD, Nvidia or CPU here http://server2.unitystreams.com:17777/getting_started


You can also just use Cryptopia or Novaexchange as wallets.

If you have a lot of mining power (or a lot of us do it) you can mine on Prohashing (register and then connect with registered username no password, and it will link you to the smart-switching general pool) and then choose to be paid out in Verge. The theory is that they will need to buy Verge in order to pay you, thus potentially increasing its price.

Wow, thanks very much!

It seems to have been kept alive mining-wise on Prohashing, and also there is a new pool ( http://server2.unitystreams.com:17777/ ) and Novaexchange and Cryptopia still carry it. So here's to the future of Rabbitcoin.. Ya never know hehe.

The blockchain is under 2GB, but if anyone needs/wants a download let me know and I'll upload it some place.

Their support SUCKS and so do the returns.

Genesis and Nicehash are better (for cloud mining services).

Just about every other pool is better for pool mining with your own hardware. After you learn how to use console miners there is no reason to stay at Minergate, since you can join a pool that pays you out directly and frequently.

Also you will get everything in your account stolen if you dont have 2 factor authentication, because their website is that insecure.

Avoid.

Yes but github accounts do not dictate to the world what the coin names and codes it should accept are, right?

It would be possible to simply make an account with a variation from the other coin's name. For example, if there was a GenericCoin1 (XGC), you could just make GenericCoin2 (also XGC).

The world then decides whether or not to now accept GenericCoin2 as XGC, and no longer accept GenericCoin1 as XGC.

There are so many coins that have become failed or inactive (or were just scams).

Some actually had decent names and associated codes.

How would one go about claiming the name and code of such coins, in order to use them for entirely new projects?

What conflicts would one likely encounter when attempting to do so?

I doubt there is any official register for the codes, or the names, and rather it is just something the exchanges use for coins they support. Inactive, abandoned coins could potentially be dislodged from exchanges by well-supported project's coins (that carry the name and code of some old sh*tcoin) right?

This coin has made a lot of progress so far.

Some things I like about it:

1. Tor friendly, and appealing to the anonymity-conscious
2. Online, web and phone wallets
3. Many algo choices for mining
4. Active and capable dev
5. Its on Cryptopia
6. Released not too long ago (Feb 2016)
7. Cool, marketable name
8. Bunch of other things, as you can see listed in the OP
9. Wasn't premined... right?

What I don't like currently:

1. Block chain bloat kills usability of desktop wallet.
2. Web wallet 2 factor auth doesnt work (can't be enabled or anything else). Web wallet has a very bare bones design and seems incomplete. Not a satisfactory alternative to desktop wallet.
3. I hate political correctness as much as the next guy, but if the dev used correct capitalisation and was a bit more 'diplomatic' in his social network commenting it would help him to be seen as more professional and serious. Thankfully he is relatively reserved compared to some other devs.

Has this ship sailed?

Looks like those massive interest rates in their 1000's is now a piddling amount (well not bad as far as interest rates go, but relatively).

Guess I missed my chance. Also I dont have an ASIC, so I guess mining isnt efficient, no?

Thanks very much for the server list but I think I will just use the web wallet. I've been having trouble with desktop wallets failing and becoming inaccessible. Web wallets are risky too, but seem to have less problems. With Dogecoin's desktop wallet for example it had an error and refused to load again after that, despite the fact it was syncing the blockchain from the bootstrap.
