Guys this thread is just comedy gold. I think the network is going well but why does it seem to get stuck on some blocks etc. !?

Yup, the only thing broken in diff adjustment is its design. But otherwise it "works" as intended.

In case you're unaware this is exactly what Satoshi wanted. People to be able to take his Bitcoin source and make something like SolidCoin. That is why he put it under the license he did. So you're in denial if you don't realize this is exactly what he wanted going forward and why he dropped out of his project.

Just because Bitcoin was built like it was doesn't mean SolidCoin has to be. GPL is the license you are 'thinking' of and Satoshi had every opportunity to put it under that, I'm sure many pressured him too, but he didn't, and for good reason. Bitcoin isn't good enough, he knew it, everyone else is starting to realize it (BTC price) and at this stage SolidCoin is leading the pack of cryptocurrencies when it comes to features and security.

You may not want to believe it for various reasons, but deep down you probably know it.

What does source code do ? If you could understand all I've written why haven't you written it? Why have I discovered many vulnerabilities in Bitcoin over my course of refactoring the source? It proves beyond a doubt that people do not read the source code, or at least, do not understand it, and the Bitcoin code has been out there for a while. In the end if you're not an advanced programmer you'll be relying on experts to "break it down" for you, right?

99% of End users couldn't care less about how SolidCoin or Bitcoin works. They want simple things. Things like fast transactions, secure networking, easy to use developer environments and many even want a small central organization to help protect the more vulnerable members in the community. I spent 3 hours today waiting for 3 confirmations in bitcoin. 3 hours.

So whilst I understand some will never be happy unless there is "source" I also understand 99% of people couldn't care less. All this said source will be released when ready.

This would all be a lot simpler if you released code, you know. Can you blame us for our ignorance of SC, when the only information we have is that which you have given us?

10% of all coins generated go into your wallet.  Crypto-currencies are based on the concept of exchange without trust however there is nothing but all users of solid coin need to trust that you will do the right thing.

Pure blind trust because if you don't there is no recourse, no checks & balances, no failsafe.

Centrally controlled currency without oversight which requires trust in major stakeholders.  Congrats you just (re)invented fiat currency.

No, though currently I hold the wallet for those CPF coins. If you read our forum you will see a non for profit organization is going to be created in a "fair country" to handle this fund going forward. Personally I don't want the stress of having to deal with handing out bounties, market measures and things like this. Along with the accusations you're skimming or a scammer. I understand why people say this and it's why I want a "constitution" and a NPO to take over. I'd rather just do some code for the project and not be involved in any leadership aspects of it.

If you think having a tiny bit (5%) of centralization like this fund is bad then that's fine, it's an opinion. People who don't mind spending a little bit in supporting a central organization who will protect their assets have SolidCoin, those who want wild west, no one does anything for anyone have things like BTC and so forth. We'll see what has greater efficiency I guess over the coming months.

Why does it suck "so many" coins are generated and a few thousand more people are now into SolidCoin? If you think it's bad sell them. Only time will tell what decision is right when it comes to which currency to support or which investment paid off.

Do you know how many coins were "given away" when SC1 started to people like you? Do you know why it has had the fastest node growth of any chain? There are reasons for these things and if you can't see them then maybe you should educate yourself like others are doing.

You know something: Your snarky remarks would bear a lot more value if you didn't have the venus project on your sig...

Venus Project? Reeeally?!?!?! LOL

If Coinotron is finding all of those blocks, why are most of theirs Invalid?

If you are planning to dump then don't bother. This is bound to reach parity with BTC. BTC is really dying.

Price is decreasing. Blocks are found rarely and transactions are ground to a complete halt. Difficulty is decreasing and the miners ( only users there are at all ) are leaving too.

Solidcoin is the onlychain that is 51% proof and also has fast transactions amongst a boatload of other features.

Believe what you want but I think it is the future and will reach parity sooner or later. You may not believe it or may not want to believe it but it really is the truth. The BTC economics are not working properly. It started the cryptocurrency revolution but a better alternative is bound to emerge.

Sell you SC for BTC and you will be left holding the BTC bag when prices drop to <$1 as the early adopters of BTC holding 100 000s of coins decide to cash out now when they can buy a car with their stash rather than wait till they can only buy a laptop with it.

Sad but true. Bitcoin has had its time. Maybe SC2 will or will not replace it but I have lost faith in BTC long time ago. SC2 looks pretty orangey ATM. I'm holding.

For those keeping score, roughly 279,000 solidcoins have been generated in the last few hours.  I'm so hoping an exchange will open before I head to bed. =)

Just in case anyone with a brain doesn't know, BCE is lying, pretty much everytime he mentions SolidCoin.

If he understood how the 51% protection worked he would realize how stupid him saying "generated 2 blocks really fast" is. It's quite hilarious to those that know the new SC2.0 algorithm.

But if you want to believe SC2 is hacked and bitcoinexpress is all powerful. Go ahead, it gives us some laughs

BTW SC2.0 in 2 hours has already tripled the size of TBX network. And is gaining on Bitcoin. Welcome to the future.
