Excellent updates.

To be honest I am a bit taken aback at how ferociously you are developing projects and services for digitalcoin. DGC has surely won the crown for most active developer imo and I look forward to this reputation spreading through the community.

Organic growth will come!

Hey guys, it's Jason, I just made a video explaining PPCoin, I would love if you could go check it out and give me some feedback Smiley Thanks Smiley
http://youtu.be/ynwz8H66chY

Why not mention few millions coins were mined on first few days and since then amount of coins generated per day dropped extremely? Why
promote heavily instamined coin that is as slow as Bitcoin? The fact that dev is active means not much because there is nothing interesting
happening with PPCoin. There are no services needed or offered for PPC. It is more or less dormant, waiting for times when those few early
adopters are supposed to become super rich, "ultimate guardians of the network" or whatever.

You've been a very vocal YAC coin supporter in the past, which is almost a direct copy of the PPCoin source code. And therefore also has the same coin supply trends in the first few days. Care to explain?

10 times faster, uses top-of-the-line algo (SHA3), development of not just client but miners is as democratic as it can be. I'm not saying that
will be enough to make YACoin successful, though. I'm never invested in anything so much that I'd work on preventing progress for the sake
of not losing some or all my investments. I say let's push things forward no matter what. Being trapped in Bitcoin is fine because it is big and
as such won't see much radical development but being trapped in some altcoin just because it was first to implement X and / or Y is just stupid.

I'm not saying the way PPC or YAC were launched is right. It was not and I cheer it if somehow I could rollback the time and launch YAC properly,
to remove permanent reminder of unfair launch from blockchain.

lmao.

I have to hand it to you. I've seen some dumb posts on this board in my time, but seeing a YAC supporter attack PPCoin in that previous post of yours has to rank right up there.

I usually refrain from these kinds of posts but for a troll like you it's a pleasure seeing you holding dat bag Smiley

2084  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DGC, FTC or WDC - which has a future on: June 28, 2013, 09:38:41 PM
Out of those three I would go for DGC or WDC. Takes an enormous amount of buy support to move Feathercoin up even a small amount. DGC has a super active dev. WDC is dirt cheap.

Tbh Litecoin is the safest bet. No need to get too fancy and out-think ourselves here looking for clever trades, Litecoin promises to give some handsome rewards come mtgox listing day. Look how the price rose just on the basis of mtgox saying on facebook they are aiming for LTC support next month.

Then it is settled. Where do we contact btc-e?

This is their official market topic others have been posting in: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40889.920

I wrote to them in that topic to trial PPCoin and after a couple of posts from me I got an 'ok' out of them. A week or two later it actually listed. It probably helped that PPCoin shot up in value quite a bit after I asked lol.
2086  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DGC] DigitalCoin.Co | Instant \ Stable \ Reliable | Usable for Purchases on: June 28, 2013, 06:40:08 PM

Please let your voice be heard in the official btc-e marketplace topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40889.920

2 minutes of your time could make a big difference to the value of your investment.

I will, however according to my source it's not needed as according to 'him' DTC will replace CNC on BTC-E.com.

Interesting to hear. I hope your source is accurate Smiley

Thanks for posting support in the btc-e topic!
Maybe we should all ask btc-e to accept DGC?

Definitely. I can't encourage this enough. Now is the perfect time to do it with them removing CNC and evaluating the crypto landscape.

I raise legitimate concerns about the lack of transparency and democracy in this partnership process and all I'm getting is zerodrama telling me I have it ass-backwards and that I need to learn how to motherfucking program. I question your intelligence when you say voting does not provide influence and accomplishes nothing.

I find it worrying that the 'key people' can 'finalize' these partnerships with no debate or communication with the respective communities of the coins.

You're going to find people respond with the attitude "I'm off to find a coin where I don't need to be a programmer to have a say".

Yep its quite possible. Seems to be something goin on with all the bigger buy orders lately. Dgc is up today again.

2090  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] Feathercoin to partner with other leading alt currencies on: June 28, 2013, 04:07:46 PM
I'm concerned about this joint announcement. The process should be open, transparent and allow for voting. Instead we are getting a small number of 'key people' behind the scenes calling all the shots and deciding to 'partner' coins together. These coins are supposed to be decentralized. Where was the gaining of community consensus? Seems like we are just getting this shoved in our face.

I will be pretty pissed if I wake up tomorrow and find out that a good, honest, fair coin like digitalcoin is being tainted with the feathercoin brand and wrapped up in some kind of 'partnership'. I for one don't want the feathercoin attackers who executed the last 51% attack to be drawn towards digitalcoin. Or for DGC to be associated with the feathercoin failures. And people who mine for their own respective coins should feel the same.

I understand the feathercoin bagholders are desperate to hype up anything to do with feathercoin but this just smells bad to me.
2091  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DGC] DigitalCoin.Co | Instant \ Stable \ Reliable | Usable for Purchases on: June 27, 2013, 09:32:00 PM
Any more world on the possibility of BTC-e taking on DGC?

If they did, I reckon it would make them more money than FTC.




We should campaign btc-e to take it on. It's the most popular out of all the new coins with the highest network hashrate and has a very active developer. I encourage people to post in the btc-e service topic which they reply to: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40889 They will take notice if enough people ask them.
2092  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] Feathercoin to partner with other leading alt currencies on: June 27, 2013, 09:30:09 PM
That is DigitalCoin in the graph not Litecoin. DigitalCoin came out after Feathercoin when GPU mining was in full effect.

So, I have been hearing some more or less verified rumors that DGC may be the coin that replaces CNC on Btce-e.com. Have there been lobbying towards that or? My source isn't '100%' but have been right in the past (reg. FTC/CNC).

Edit: Well, I guess there 'might' be some truth to it. Buy side on Cryptsy just went nuts. First time in a long time I have seen 15 BTC buy orders... and it just broke out of 0.0030

I hope it's true. Smiley

Viva DGC!

Please consider adding DigitalCoin (DGC) to your exchange.

It's the most popular out of all the new coins with the highest network hashrate and has a very active developer (marketplace launched, advertising platform launched, and now a 'bank' is in the works).
2096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] LTC pump on: June 27, 2013, 06:00:32 PM

I'm thinking something like this probably isn't very healthy for LTC :-/
Thoughts?

Any kind of attempted market manipulation is not good for a crypto currencies reputation.

This kind of activity would actually be highly illegal in a regulated market and you would serve jail time. it's like that for a reason (leads to big market crashes, instability and of course unwitting people get burned).
2097  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] Feathercoin to partner with other leading alt currencies on: June 27, 2013, 04:29:59 PM
^ lol. it took 6 weeks for 2 million Litecoins to be produced. 2 million feathercoins were produced in the first 7 hours. No shitty video can explain that difference.


Okay let's compare them as you force us to.

In the seven hours from Litecoin block three 350,000 LTC were created. Remember that Feathercoin has four times as many coins per block so if we multiple those LTC coins up to be even we get 1.4 million equivalent Litecoins produced against our 2 million.

It is surprising the difference is not more considering how much more hash power there is out there. If you do not believe me then look at the Litecoin block chain from block 3 onwards. Blocks were solved in seconds much like the early Litecoin blocks.

http://explorer.litecoin.net/chain/Litecoin?hi=2018&count=2016

I see no problem in the way that Litecoin started and it has done very well for itself. I am a Litecoin holder and supporter. Bitcoin should not feel threatened by Litecoin and Litecoin should not feel threatened by us. In fact if we did pool resources rather than squabble then more progress would be made for all.

Feathercoin looks to work with whoever is willing regardless of what coins they have in their pocket.

I'm not interested in how you try and dress it up. 2 million feathercoins were produced in the first 7 hours. It took 6 weeks for 2 million litecoins to be produced.

7 hours vs 6 weeks (6 weeks is 1000 hours). The coins have not been distributed fairly. There wasn't even any notice given of the launch.

Bushstar would you like to explain why you made no pre-announcement of the launch? (I guarantee we don't get an honest answer to this question).

Any idea what's the active user base of NVC is like? I'm asking 'cause I run ALTcointip bot and NVC is the only coin that's never been used since very beginning. Even /r/novacoin is dead.

You can see here how many times the clients have been downloaded:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/novacoin/files/

That's probably the best estimate about how many users there are.

Novacoin is the perfect coin for hoarders because it pays interest. I wouldn't dream of tipping novacoins just like I wouldn't tip gold coins.  Grin

Have you checked that page? I only see 300 downloads on it.

What do you think the real number is? NVC is the most mysterious out of all the coins... it's high value, it's stability, it's general lack of interest on here. Weird.
2099  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BTC or LTC on: June 26, 2013, 09:55:06 PM
LTC is 30% more profitable mine. And it's also going on mtgox the largest exchange platform, which many people are speculating will lead to a nice increase in Litecoin price.

I therefore recommend mining LTC and holding onto as many as you can. I will be shocked if the price hasn't gone up in 2 months.
2100  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN] Feathercoin to partner with other leading alt currencies on: June 26, 2013, 09:42:15 PM

Mentioning pre-mine is a false argument, I don't even talk about that. You can't prove or logically argue why Bitcoin being $260 caused the 3 million feathercoins being produced on day 1. And I never said there is *anything* wrong with allowing people to mine. Good job again addressing something else I didn't even mention.

2 million litecoins were produced in the first 6 weeks. 2 million feathercoins were made in the first 7 hours. The reasons *why* this occurred are largely irrelevant it's the fact it *has* occurred is the problem.

"you can't prove or logically argue "

Really? Bitcoin at $260 didn't add additional interest to all alt currencies? Look, you can hate Feathercoin, but this statement is absolutely ridiculous.

It's a problem that the free market decided to mine? Wow.

The passion here is novel but often misdirected.


There is more interest than ever in alt currencies, that didn't stop Digitalcoin having a fair launch. The money supply graph of digital coin is a straight line all the way. Not a huge spike on day 1 of coins.

And because the free market raped feathercoin and mined 3 million of them in 1 day doesn't change the fact it's still a major discredit to the 'currency'. Especially when it's based on Litecoin which took weeks and weeks to hit 2 million.
