There have been 2 news items worth mentioning here - Is now the time to invest in alternative currencies? - 03 December 2013 http://www.finextra.com/blogs/fullblog.aspx?blogid=8624& Attack of the Bitcoin Clones http://www.equities.com/editors-desk/currencies-forex/attack-of-the-bitcoin-clonesBoth mention Quark as if it could be the next big thing. Also, Applecoin seems to have skyrocketed since last nights listing. Quark IS planned to be added soon, right? They DID just add it to their Cottage Currencies page, which means they will be listing it soon. It could be anytime. Right now is a great time to buy in, because it's at a lower price since last night, and it's sure to rise real soon. It's currently the 4th largest in Market Capital and this cannot be ignored for long. Get over it , Quarks is done for. Doge is the new Quark. Time to change your portfolio. |

I requested the details of the wire they sent so I can check with my bank. And thats what they replied.
So , at least they told you that they've already sent the wire payment , didn't they? |

/bad for identification documents/
My friend had problems when they requested his identity card scans. As allowed in their ToS/conditions, we'd put a gradient watermark on them in the areas with no information.
This was in case of a major leak/hack, to avoid the misuse of the documents.
They refused them systematically, even with transparent watermarks, citing their own ToS !!!
So we went elsewhere.
Did they give any explanation for that? They refused it because of their ToS. Haven't you read what she wrote ? What if she cites their own ToS, and asks about the reason? What are you trying to say with this , cause the way you're saying it doesn't help that much? |

Hello everyone!!! Alt-coin fan here looking for some dogecoin help  Please and thank you DTToFJTyGNcQAx527gfoNuTiagxCZE6mCy By looking for help you mean looking for somebody to give you free coins? That's called begging not help.! |

That might actually work. What exactly are you marketing though?
He's begging for free coins , get used to those guys claiming they will promote it to ... |

No really , is this a joke?
Like post this message 7 times or you'll get hit by a falling air conditioner?
If you don't want to read it don't read it. This post is to point out that if a person notices that change on their computer they have been hacked. So far this is not detected by any antivirus programs so maybe someone else will find it useful. I have pcap files of the traffic and will run them through several antivirus programs once a week or so until it shows up. Til then this is one way to test for it. Do you have any references about this? Some thread in a forum which deals with security , viruses? Unless you show some proofs I will think somebody on 4chan laughed at you. |

So is this pretty much already impossible to solo-mine with a single GPU?
Are you sure this coin is getting mined and not woofed? |

Yes, it's included in a rent. At this time only trust LTC. WDC FTC and still do not know ... http://dustcoin.com/  Try to pull 10000KW out of the wall , and you'll get evicted for sure. It's free energy because they didn't thought of you running an aluminum plant in there Really hard to get serious in mining because of this. A system with 4 decent graphics cards pulling 300W on each card is like running a Microwave 24/7. That's already 140$ a month here. Multiply that by two and your landlord won't be that happy. How about we throw in a few Knc miners ? |

Picture it in other way.
A company running a factory in town x , goes to town y where their main competitor is running his business , start a new factory and offer three times the payout. Because the second owner can't afford it and can't find qualified peoples he has to close it down (51% attack). Then with the competitor gone , the guy from town x will also close the second factory and leave the people unemployed.
This is the way scamcoins feed.
I understand your theory, but my point is (as I said): " If a network can't stand up to a loss in hashing power then that coin was flawed to begin with." No coins , not even bitcoin is able to deal with a hashpower issue generated by somebody willingly losing money to drive miners out.. Maybe in the future , but not right now. The Bitcoin network is increasing in hashpower every day, the difficulty has been increasing ~15% every 11 days for sometime now with even higher spikes more recently. I promise, a couple of startup coins that 90% of which will never see an exchange will never be able to hurt Bitcoin's hashrate. Hihi , that's because bitcoin is sha256 , and most coins are scrypt , just for marketing , 'gave coins to the poor' slogan . The LTC people on the other side are getting nervous. A mining pool that has a lot of new miners , mining for crazy for the most profitable coin out there , rewarding them 10 times as more with a fake coins would gain enough power to make a hit on the LTC network if they make the switch. Until the miners realize what they are doing it will be a little late But lets' hope it won't happen. |

Not to mention BFL's seemingly fictitious bullet runs.
They started the bullet runs before October 2012 and didn't get their first -->sample<-- prototype until April 2013.
I always assumed this was because the chips from the first run didn't work, and they had to do a respin but chose not to go public about it. January 9th is the same as people being told in Early November of 2012 that they would be getting their first batch just a few days away. This isn't incompetence, it's just plain lying.
I see no reason to disbelieve that they expect to receive some chips on 9th January. Whether those chips will work, or need some modifications and another run is another matter. But that's just the nature of chip design - these things don't always work first time. And from what I've read pretty much all the Bitcoin ASIC vendors are producing their chips on compressed timescales which are quite aggressive by industry standards, so I would imagine that increases the risk of failure. So yes, it probably is the same as November 2012 in that no one knows yet whether they will be lucky and get it right first time. But I think that applies to every ASIC vendor who doesn't yet have sample chips in hand. roy They will receive the chips, they will make the cards , they will mine with them... After 6 months , they will start shipping 1 or per day.Those that have started to get low hashrates. |

Nice way to beg for free coins yourself:)
Call me when Aurora Snow wants some , and when she wants to do some services for them:)

Multi-coin payment accepter services are going to become super popular. People should be able to pay for things they want with anything that has value. Collected shells, old Nike tennis shoes, and cryptocurrencies.
And we're back in the prehistoric era ? One wabbit pelt for one stick and 3 bananas for a cutting stone? |

he not have 2FA enabled. and I post here 100% truth. you can trust me or not it fine.
the hacker sold ALL his QRK. and try to transfer 10BTC out his account. the transaction still in pending mode right now.
I think this is why Cryptsy stop all withdraws (and even deposits)
Do you honestly think Cryptsy will stop all transactions for one account? Why not only block that withdraw till you clear things up. I'm more worried this will end like an inputs.io hack and run. What was the inputs.io story? And online Bitcoin wallet that the owner claimed it was hacked and then he ran away. Around 4100 BTC lots , almost 4 millions. |

There are also pools like hashcows which pick the most profitable currency automatically and optionally pay out in BTC.
That is for scrypt only though. multipool.us offers auto swtiching, but only 5 sha-256 coins. You can't really switch from sha256 mining to scrypt mining that easy, can't you ? |

Yeah , people can explore the bitcoin node , and it's something they should do
But people shouldn't copy the code , replace bit with world cat beer junk , premine at least 20% , give 1% in giveaway on bitcointalk , and pay around 10 shills for support on the board.
Also , each coin is drawing hashpower from others , making all of them weaker.
Well, in that case it's really the exchange owners who are to blame for accepting bribes to put coins which offer nothing new on their exchanges... But there's nothing wrong with John Doe who wants to make a coin and starts by doing a simple clone with only basic changes just to walk through the process once and learn what it is he is doing and how the program works, where all the functionality takes place and what will/won't break the program when it's messed with. And I really don't care if it takes hashpower away from other networks, people should feel free to mine whatever they want, wherever they want, when ever they want. If a network can't stand up to a loss in hashing power then that coin was flawed to begin with.Picture it in other way.

True that. It is kind of discouraging when you can only mine .00001 of a bitcoin. Mining a whole Litecoin or something is much more satisfying.
Absolutely. And if you're starting with a cpuminer or small gpu, the transaction fees can really take a bite. Smaller value coins automatically have smaller fees - or at least you can cash out quicker and feel like you're accomplishing something, even if it's in millipennies. I feel that you also make more if you can save those Alt-Coins, you never know when they might have a huge hit. I couldn't agree more. My strategy is to mine a little of this, and a little of that and just sit on them for a while to see where the value goes. It took BTC nearly 4 years to get anywhere. However, now that the general public is fully aware of altcoins, and BTC is becoming played out for the average home user that doesn't have ASIC multiple-thousand dollar rigs, I think thats all the better and altcoins will flourish that much quicker because more people can actually get coins instead of just those with ASIC miners. That is communist propaganda , sorry for it. You say that if you build a bicycle in your garden those are better than a mercedes because you can't build one , but only people with lots of money can? It's the utility that counts , and already shops have problems with one coin , just thinking about accepting more that one is a nightmare. Also , is a coin becomes popular , miners will switch to it and make mining it less attractive. If LTC hits 200 , you're going to see scrypt asics flooding the market. The way you post this , looks like altcoins cam make everybody rich , you know how that sounds? |
