no active development ?

I've explained it previously. Dev team all gone. May come back if people are willing to pay them BTC. Harsh, I know but who can blame them? They paid significant out-of-pocket expenses that were not recovered before coin collapsed.

No idea how much it will cost or if they will accept it. I do know that they will not be coming back to be paid in ifc.

Is there any spokes person from the devs which could input on what it would take as far as funding, effort etc...

My wallet always syncs just fine..

do you mind share your blocks .dat and the db folder?  looks like will take for me 1 more week to sync hahahaha

our friend above tried to send it to me but I stlll need db  folder to sync my wallet Sad

Check it out, it's a 7zip file (WeTransfer) no password.

https://we.tl/5QjLeUsmER

it is for infinitecoin 1.8.8 win32

database folder
blk0001.dat
blkindex.dat

I recommend renaming your local "database" folder and the two files "blk0001.dat" and "blkindex.dat" to something like .old
Then paste these two files and the folder in your C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Infinitecoin  folder.

This way you keep your original files, in case this does not work, you can revert it to the old situation



thank you man, really works.

did u exchange your coins?
No i still have all of them, somehow I believe this coin should be worth much more. Especially compared to other really useless coins that seem to be overpriced.. Also I believe almost all IFC have been mined by now. Total of 90 billion? So you wont be able to mine them soon is what I've heard

It definitely could be could be worth alot more. Any devs here from before willing to give information / documentation o where the project stopped I would be willing to invest time into the idea of a genesis block, upgrades etc...

What is happening to cryptocurrency as a whole is similar to the beginning of the internet.  All the altcoins are like the dot com companies you can invest in.  I figure 2017 for cryptos is where we were in 1997 for the internet.  There will be market corrections but the overall cryptocurrency hype is just getting started.

If infinitecoin is going to move forward, it will need someone to copy over the litecoin upgrades which is basically what the developers where doing.  Infinitecoin could then potentially get the planned lightning transactions and atomic swaps feature.  With atomic swaps we could swap infinitecoin to and from bitcoin/litecoin without having to rely on an exchange.  Merge mining with litecoin and maybe having masternodes could help also.
Yes to all of this. If merge mining isn't possible, I think IFC should consider changing from Proof of Work to a Proof of Stake similar to Cachecoin's to secure the network, as mining hashrate is now low with the small mining rewards.

Maybe a mix between POW & POS would be viable as POS alone is not good for circulation

I said earlier in this thread I am a dev/eng not for IFC but general/career. I would be more than willing to devote time to push this forward but I wouldn't have enough time to do it alone. Is there open information/documentation where the previous dev's left off?

I know you love this coin so I assume that you are a bag holder like a lot of us.

Are you willing to help finance a rebuild of this coin by putting a proper Dev team in place? It will take significant resources because the best Devs cost a lot of money these day and the more successful coins are gobbling them up because their market cap has made initial Devs wealthy.

I know that to put a team in place is going to cost. How much? I am not sure.
I also know, after talking to a member of the original team, that the only path forward is a new genesis block. IFCs fatal flaw, which was touted as a big plus, was it was mined out. Any coin that does not have an infinite supply will eventually burn out. Even BTC. Yes an infinite supply can cause inflation but with a good team in place they could burn coins by sending them to an address that can't be accessed. In other words trust the team to control the supply to keep inflation in check while always insuring that there are coins to be mined.

Also, with a rebirth, I would suggest a new algorithm that is asic proof. Cryptonight is my choice so people with CPUs and GPUs can mine. Not really asic proof but lets say asic resistant because the cost is so high to develop purpose built equipment for it.

Not quite sure what to do with the existing IFC stacks but there would have to be some sort of process where these old coins can be exchanged for the new ones.

So if you or anyone else wants to get serious about this, then this is the place to do it.  I am not a Dev but can do website shit, especially WordPress. Would also pay for the server. I will not enter into this though unless a proven team, with track record, can be put together.

I am a Dev/IFC Bag holder which would be very willing to put time and energy behind this to jump start it again. I't will however take a fair amount resources to get it done. I wonder home people are willing to push this?
