2101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / [Q2C] QubitCoin New Developer/Coder thread on: March 18, 2014, 11:16:06 AM

From the thread:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=519714.new#new      Please consider the issues.

About changes:  I can code whatever community decides to use. If you people want me to grow back block reward to 1024 and triple total coins created I surely can do that. It will be applied when community adopt new wallet as good.
About the wallet: I have Linux and OSX wallets running without any issue (any of them in 2 different cpus [one virtual, one real]  and using my new clean safe builds from source on github) until this moment (may crash next second of course... its software...).
Are you reporting about Windows? Its a known fact that some windows builds had problems when using some LTC spin off time ago as this coin is made... (doge was one of them as I was told... I never use windows except for full hard testing of my work) because built over some buggy dependencies. Strange your dev didn't spot and change that... as far as I can evaluate for now he was good...
About active devs: when I am dev coder I code. I mean,  I have better things to do than discuss lines with someone. If community decides I am the coder then I will be the coder. When community decides to change mind they just don't download wallet they don't like... simple. Usually so called devs don't say this... but its the reality: imagine you community tell me I am new dev and I decide to code that reward goes to 10000... if no one download that new wallet it will not happen - simple.
About optimizations: a good optimization  takes lots of time and testing (a millisecond today, ten milliseconds tomorrow - you learn that after coding for aviation soft). If I understood what you talking about, lets put that on 4th or 5th place in our list.
About global sense of existing a dev... who controls twitter, forum, site, whatever? Everything must be changed/moved or it will be just a joke.
I must say I used my answer to your post to clarify my global vision about everything involved. Thank you for helping me do that.

Thanks for that .. I think, judging by the upvotes, the community approves you as the developer coder !

 As I see it, the community has  decisions to make in several areas:

1. Marketing /Media.. Who runs Twitter, BTCtalk thread, alternative new forum. Who will step up for those ?

2. Image and wallet software. The 'Cube' logo is good and very distinctive. The wallet might benefit from a little graphical tweaking.

3. Coding for a fork : block reward and any other issues.


IMO the wallet and code for blocks are functional and have some degree of optimisation, so do not warrant messing with first... unless that is required to get the coin onto new exchanges (was that a sticking issue or not ?.. I am not technically competent to answer)

Begin with a new forum if someone has the experience to run it.

As far as longer term block reward goes, from my own experience, I believe that the current 128 is fine (because the community holders can fund projects and redistribute existing coin) but the halving should be of a longer period now, like 3 months. An inflation of 5% permanently will not hurt, because this is a model that other coins have eschewed, and it separates Q2C from the others. I have 30 years experience in financial industries and will gladly debate and inform on this point.
2102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Opportunity for a competent developer... on: March 18, 2014, 11:11:49 AM


Everything seems usable until now. And more than that, I feel good with the stuff. Code is clean and I have origin of spin off on my archives. I can step in if community really wants it and support it.
Community seems alive and kicking. I have more connected peers with q2c than with doge... wow this doge!
Question is what you want to do with this coin... coin is almost fully mined... then what next? I think life cycle is unrealistic: you cant half a coin reward every 3 weeks starting with 2048... even every 3 months would be too much...
So what you, the community,  want from a new dev?


i suppose that one idea could be to change halving time at next interval, when coins per block be 128, and we could use more optimisations of the wallet, it tends to stop syncing after while while and you have to close it and run again, then also  i guess some optimisations between wallet and pool mining,  and in global sense that coin have an active dev or devs, in a combination with good comunity gives other ppl more confidence into our coin.

2103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ✦✦ ECCoin ✦✦ [ECC] ✦✦ Fair Mine Period ✦✦✦ Last 34 Days... on: March 18, 2014, 10:42:25 AM
What is the status of ECC on Coinmarketcap?

Are we going to be listed soon?

Not sure. At present, it seems we even don't have a large exchange.

Not listed, not in the imminent list.

We do not want to go on too soon, and start in the Low Volume second division. Better to wait until trading is established on several exchanges.

My investors are looking forward to buying decent size stakes in ECC if 'whales' start dumping.

There is a lot of misunderstanding about markets, and of course most people worry about there being too many coins when the real problem is that most do not have enough available.

Anyone with the capital and skill to really promote is not going to bother unless a big stake is available for them to invest.

That is why premines are good, not bad...and large holders are good not bad... and dumps are good not bad, because someone is buying the ones that are sold.

Q2C, Qubitcoin has an invite (winning polls) to go onto new exchanges, but the dev is in Ukraine and has some personal problem.

The coin has novel hash and works extremely well (BTCtalk thread is 175 pages after a few weeks, so there is a substantial community). If you want a finger in this pie, go to the Q2c thread and check it out. The price is pretty bombed out now, and has been taken down with a lot of the other also-rans.

This one has the makings of another Quark (check the history of that before it x500 in Nov), for several other reasons as well.

Can you clarify why opportunity?
Why a Pro Dev would mind? You people have the coins... previous dev ran away... a Pro Dev must already know a lot about making a coin or he is useless... so no learning, no power, no coins... where is the opportunity?
I am not trolling... I am asking... to evaluate my interest.


I am just flying a kite to see what reaction I get: thanks for yours !

 I am also in a learning curve.

You see, I believe the whole alt. market is due for a big shake down (or up, whatever). I have investors who are looking to get into situations, and before committing funds I am trying to evaluate what life there is in each technically viable coin.

When we get the first place in Mintpal, we will need a dev to talk to them about codes, wallet...

Two days ago, qubitcoin won votation to Bittrex and we are not there yet cause q2c has not a dev. The problem will happen again with Mintpal?

We need a dev. Make a post in some section of Bitcointalk and ask for one.

Here it is... use it

I'm looking for some coins which had less exposure lately and are not that well know , but with a small community still active , anyone still interested in this?


There are a lot of new coins but not many with all the right elements. ECCoin is smilar to DC in that the mining period is swift and it goes 99% to PoS after that. ... The difference is it works smoothly and the dev is highly active

2109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ✦✦ ECCoin ✦✦ [ECC] ✦✦ Fair Mine Period ✦✦✦ Last 35 Days... on: March 17, 2014, 09:26:31 AM
Don't worry my friends. I think if we keep this topic hot on Bitcoin talk then the exchange will think about adding this coin to their exchange.



+1.

ECC is only 11 days old. There is organic growth in the community, and it will be discovered. I personally would not rush to list on an exchange: keep watching for an opportunity. The coins that pay highly for listings are more likely to be pump+dump.

Still mining and holding Wink
Any idea on when will we hit coinmarketcap?
We send our application there. We dont know yet when they list.

I will send another application when ECC hits an older established exchange. Better if e can go in the 1st Tier, not low volume 2nd division.

this coin seems a little too enthusiastic. why should i mine this?

Maybe better to mine dismal coins instead.

This is a straighforward clone of MINT


no this is a better version.. this is what mint wish it could be

1: coin block doesn't have- means you could be late to the party and still make good amount of coin. only after 45 days coin drops to 1 coin per block
2: there is only 50 billion vs 70 billion- coin will be worth more because mint had too much and it got saturated
3: first year pos is 25% mint was only 20%
4: from the start the dev is more active then mint- mint took the coin to value to drop to make the dev put more work in
5: i can go on if u like

#eccoin is the way to go

EC Coin is much improved on mint...

The mining stage actually only produces 17Bn coins.

PoS is 25% in first year: that is the incentive which will keep wallets and network open. Reduces gradually after that to counteract inflation.

Dev is more proactive, and there are more connected community members.

first q2c faucet?!

http://free-q2c.mine-coin.de/


sorry it took me so long... but it should work now. Currently it's just a faucet but it is build to be extended to other coins... a steam trading place. coin trading place?! Wink

A nice design and more marketing informations are coming soon.

Current payout is 1 q2c per hour to test it. I hope all is working and we can adjust the payout value.



vote for us on https://www.mintpal.com/voting



Nice idea. But the faucet seems already dried. Could you fill it?

I filled it.  Suggest raise payout to 50 Q2C when ready.

I just added 15k to the faucet,to these addresses..

Thor has excellent code and genetics. It is just overlooked atm.

Doesn't mean it will certainly be picked up, but the price is reflecting no prospects now. A great gamble, put in what you can afford to lose, either lose it, or make 20x

Dev please ..are there plans for a proper (abe type) block explorer ?   That would help adoption.


Is there a moderator or dev on this thread ?
2116  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BTC Stolen from Poloniex on: March 12, 2014, 04:45:28 PM
You seem to be putting alot of effort in here Smoothie. Whats the agenda?

Someone who states the facts, and predicts what is more likely to happen in the future.
Someone who ignores everything that happened in the past, and dreams of rainbows and fairies in the future.

Who is more likely to have an agenda?


The opposite may be true.   

The owner of Poloniex is trying to do the right thing. Anyone who can afford it should give him support.


2117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ██▶ ECCoin ▶[ECC] ▶ 3th Exchange ★ ECC Fair Mine Period ██ Last 39 Days... on: March 12, 2014, 10:25:06 AM
I read that POS is insecure, does anyone know exactly what that means and does that apply to all POS coins including Mintcoin and ECC?

PoS gives a different type of security. It is more secure in most cases, because a takeover of the network (like a 51% attack) requires ownership of the majority of the coins. If you own it , you own it anyway.
2118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ██▶ ECCoin ▶[ECC] ▶ 3th Exchange ★ ECC Fair Mine Period ██ Last 40 Days... on: March 12, 2014, 01:02:26 AM
I have some questions about PoS... I've read about it and understand the general concept, but I think an example with real numbers would very useful. 
So can someone describe what will happen for someone holding 100000 ECCoin?   If I have 100k today, will it start paying PoS interest in 42 days or is it from the time PoW ends?  Is there a minimum amount required? 
Thanks!


I am sure the dev. will confirm shortly, but my understanding is that stake can be minted on coins held in the wallet for 42 days. Start point is genesis (because the coin is hybrid PoW/PoS right now), no minimum.

Looking for a new coin to get into as an early adopter.. can anyone give me reason/s way I should choose this coin?  


 Have a look at the website which gives some concise information..there will be more promotion and information later....Then have a think about it for a few weeks..
2120  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin (DarkSend) | No Premine | Runs 30% cooler than scryp on: March 11, 2014, 06:51:54 PM
At long last I finished the one-pager for Darkcoin.

You can see the doc here:
http://wowgwow.com/Darkcoin-one-pager.pdf
http://wowgwow.com/Darkcoin-one-pager.docx

From experience, having all the most processed and digested info on one-page makes it very easy for journalists, bloggers, readers etc. to tap in. I believe this will make our marketing efforts much easier.

Since neither English nor technology are my first "languages", please feel free to rephrase anything.

My 2cents.
If you can rephrase that in layman's terms (something new to crypto would understand, like analogies to common stuff - especially darksend), I'm more than happy to make an infographic out of it.
I tried to reach a balance between layman's terms for newbies, and more technical details for those seeking in-depth understanding. As for Darksend explanation, I copied what the devs gave... BUT i encourage you to do an infographics. The worst [best] that can happen is that you will get feedback and be able to make it better. Go ahead...

In the one pager, need to change spelling of COMPETITIVE.

I am happy to edit for professional English and good communication. I have done this for a number of currencies' sites and promotions. I understand aspects of Cryptos as well as being a writer... just let me know how.
