So who is investing 25 Btc

is there any exchange website or somebody want to sell?

The nodes are pinging each other from time to time.
Well, what is the drawback from generating empty blocks? Especially if time goes by there won't be any empty blockes in the future. Blocks are generated in a fix 10 minute intervall and making any special rule there wouldn't bring advantages.
The overhead of (empty) blocks in one year is only about 1mb.

Thanks 200 pages is at least something

Be re-assured that we won't release a buggy version We could have rushed a somewhat finished product, release that, get all coins from Anon136 and go away easily some month ago without much hassle. Since we did not you can be sure that we want to have a rock solid and great product.



Indeed, we could not recreate the problem until now in our closed testnets. Before someone is claiming now, how we could solve an issue that we could not reproduce - well, we are quite convinced after several tests that the issue is caused by the amount of many connected clients in connection to at least some initiated transactions. So we changed something in the handling there. Additionally we fixed another thing in the block(chain) classes and added more security features. Most important (maybe) if a chain async occurs again, the network should fully recover itself within a few seconds without any drawback. After that process all clients should be back in sync automatically. That is also good if you think of malicious network attacks. The clients can easier see if the network health is lower than normal. In later versions this could be used to prevent users from initiating transactions or to warn them. The maximal amount of connected clients will be limited as of 0.61 (that obviously does not apply to the official nodes and can be freely set in the options menu).


well not much time unfortunately But I watched some at least.

yes, we are males.

Indeed I forgot about that. Sorry. We got a reply from the original author of that translation and he made me believe that it is not a google translation. But if it is not good enough from your points of view (we do not speak a single word french) then a new translation would be good I guess (with the current, updated information).



good idea - first post contains now a link to sourceforge and a notification that eXocoin has not already launched.
Also added the link to the wiki mainpage.


As you do not talk about exocoin I don't have to justify ourselves here. Anyway I want to assure that we understand that a product itself is important but that the greatest program is nothing without proper marketing, communication and so on.
Problem is limited manpower and that priorization must apply somehow. Moreover, if you "get stones rolling" and more and more people get attracted but the product itself is not finished/buggy they can get quickly mad. If you loose a customer once he will most likely never come back. So what I try to say: We want to have a finished product first (in terms of stability and releaseability, not talking about marketplace and other on-top features). After a redesign of the website and a good working client on all major distros (windows, linux, osx) it is much easier and successfuller to advertise eXocoin. But you can have a different opinion - this is our point of view.





Current status of eXocoin in general:
As you can see in our bug tracker there are quite some points (and some are still open). With the 0.61 release we will have solved the major bugs and improved the client with some suggestions (if everything goes well).
OSX developement made huge progress as well. We might release the osx client with 0.61 or otherwise with 0.62.
From 0.61 ongoing we will host our download area content within sourceforge for better download performance and public viewable download statistic.

Timeline (oh well, our timelines hardly have been accurate in the past I must admit - maybe we can get better...) :
- coding 0.61 finished: on 30th June
- publishing changelog: on 30th June
- testing everything and fixing issues caused by 0.61: 1st July - 3rd July
- uploading everything, set up the network and so on: late 3rd July
- release of 0.61 immediatly thereafter (3rd - 4th July)




best regards
eXocoin

setting upper limit per investor will be smart move from dev.
1BTC seems fair, so that investors with smaller amount got a real fair share

We have to delay again. And again our apologies.

We are still debugging network errors and are not sure when we can get them resolved. We have pushed the launch back 5 days, but it may be sooner. We will give at least a day of lead time when we know we have a well-functioning network.

Also, we notice lots of requests for more information. Unfortunately we have to be secretive about our IP until the coin is released.

But here is something to think about.

Let's look at typical anonymity. In most implementations of anonymity, a transaction of 5 coins with address A would transform into a transaction with address X:


The part of the process that produces the anonymity is [ANON] and might be very complicated, so that it would be difficult to link the transaction with address A to the transaction with address X. However, despite the difficulty, both transactions can be still linked by the value (5).

Our anonymity solution is multifaceted, but one facet that it addresses is this potential to link transactions by value, removing any information that the size of the transaction may provide to adverse parties.

To address some other concerns expressed on this thread, please keep in mind that this coin does not have an IPO, so there is no call for investment. We just want to get the launch right and have a coin that functions well right from the start. We hope you will keep checking back. The actual launch will have it's own ANN where you will learn more about the developers and be able to inspect the white paper.

Thanks for your patience!

Ok. I'll ask another way. What's the equivalent of 51% attack here? What proportion of purchases in what period is needed to abuse the system?

Resetting of uptime and purchases after each forged block makes no difference here. Any real attacker will have many nodes with sufficient uptime and can distribute new purchases accordingly. There is also possibility of fake purchases - "send the money to yourself" type. True, there is 1% fee (actually half of it) but this will be compensated by forging blocks.
