Who said anything about "official" ?  Nobody here has claimed "official".  You might be confused with Potcoin.

Also, Cannacoin was launched almost 1 month before CannabisCoin and we launched Cannacoin with a 0% premine and steady block rewards of 12.5 CCN for over 8 months before transitioning to PoSV.

If you are interested in joining a great community and project with serious software developers that have a long background in the Cannabis community in Washington State then I hope you get involved with us... we are usually available in Freenode IRC in the #cannacoin channel.

Thanks

CXC volumes are up on Bittrex.  Some people were worried about the install being blocked by Chrome.  Here is a scan of the QT.  It's safe and was compiled by the 3angle team.

Happy New Year everyone

You should still receive coins to those addresses.

If you go into help --> debug window --> console --> type 'listaccounts' or 'listaddressgroupings'

I'm not exactly sure how the wallet rebuild process works but that should verify if those addresses are still used in your wallet.  If they don't show up, I would assume not to use them. 

That's great news!  Glad we could help you get this sorted out.  Cheers

Thanks Markus.  Nice update!

Honestly, to me it sounds like your wallet.dat file is corrupt some how.  There's some other options to try.  Read Sipa's comments down at the bottom to see about corrupted wallet.dat:  https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/2395

1) Run your Cannacoin-QT with the -salvagewallet flag at the end.  I'm not sure anyone's tried this with Cannacoin yet

"C:\Users\John\Desktop\Cannacoin-qt 2.0.0.1\cannacoin-qt.exe" -salvagewallet

or "C:\Users\John\Desktop\Cannacoin-qt 2.0.0.1\cannacoin-qt.exe -salvagewallet"


2) Importing the private keys into a new wallet.  Loading the old wallet QT software if need be with the wallet.dat and export your private keys.  Then import them into a new wallet.  

If you want someone else to try with that wallet.dat, I would be happy to help you.

How come the infographic on the OP says steakmybit? hehe

Cool... thanks from #Cannacoin!

I've done quite a few installs and have not experienced this problem.  Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

I usually make multiple backups of my wallet.dat files and date them accordingly.  If you have another one you might try that.

Also, are you certain you are using a Cannacoin wallet.dat and not a CannabisCoin wallet.dat?

If you would like, you can try to use my recently compiled Cannacoin-QT with some updated .DLL and improved connections... I will PM you a link

*edit* have you tried synching up the blockchain first, and then replacing the wallet.dat after you are totally synched?

I sent you my newest Cannacoin-QT link in PM

I believe that Quatloo will be added outside of the voting.  Recently, my own coin Cannacoin (CCN) was added to Cryptsy despite not having a majority of votes there.  My discussion with CryptsyMatt leads me to believe that Paul just takes time to research each coin before adding it.

I am currently focused on getting QuatlooCoin (QTL) and CheckoutCoin (CXC) added to Cryptsy for all of Markus and the 3angle software projects to be utilized to the full-extent.

Lawsky Outlines Revisions to New York's BitLicense in DC Speech — The latest revisions to the proposed New York BitLicense have been announced at a panel event in Washington.

I have been doing some analysis of cryptocurrency regulations in development in New York and D.C.  

What I am seeing is that consumer product companies and retail businesses will have to sell products in $USD denominated valuations.  Therefore cryptocurrencies are kosher as long as businesses are pricing their products in dollars and not using any speculative aspect for consumer prices.  What this could mean is that authorities are going to make it clear that cryptocurrency speculation is not acceptable in retail stores.  This can be seen pretty clearly if you look at the comments regarding gift cards. If you are a business and you sell a gift card that uses a cryptocurrency network, the face value of that gift card must be in $USD.  So no matter what the price fluctuation of the cryptocurrency, the business must accept the gift card in $USD and using those face values. This pretty much puts a ban on a cryptocurrency price pegging for companies that cannot meet extremely strict regulatory guidelines and don't have Bit-Licenses.

The reason for this is pretty clear from the standpoint of regulators.  There's a lot of room for futures speculation scams if they don't.  Many cryptocurrencies are being marketed as a type of "futures security"  (example: In the future 1 ICE-CREAM COIN will be worth 1 ICE-CREAM).  From a consumer protection standpoint, this is a very slippery slope.  This would be considered using a cryptocurrency as a type of asset-backed security.  It would be the same if I wanted to issue stock in a company without any clear indication of what the real assets and liabilities of the company are.  This would be securities fraud from the standpoint of the SEC.

You will in my opinion be allowed to peg internally to $USD for Gift Card purposes, but not for futures speculation.  So, if you issue a gift card you will be required to issue that gift card in $USD and the value of that Gift Card CANNOT fluctuate on a traded market.  Advertising prices in another currency or speculative asset is already illegal because it violates the "legal tender" laws of the United States. Companies that will use cryptocurrencies for these speculative purposes will likely need to register with the SEC and other regulatory agencies in the future through these "Bit-licenses" if they want to use cryptocurrencies for these purposes.  As it stands, you can currently price your products in $USD and accept the market-weighted value of Bitcoin (or any coin) at the time of purchase.  

I am continuing to follow these regulations very closely as they are developed in order to ensure that the cannabis community and the businesses we are talking with are aware of the limitations on cryptocurrency that will likely be imposed through regulations in the future.  I would like to hear other's comments and interpretations of these regulations.

Welcome newcripto!  This is a great community here of dedicated developers in both cryptocurrency and cannabis industry.  We are combining the best of both worlds.  Are you by chance in Washington or Oregon? 

Very little of the funds from the development fund were stored in the same wallet as Cannatip and when the attackers utilized the Cannatip exploit in IRC they were able to withdraw some of the funds from that donation address.

The current donation address should be fine as they did not get access to the private keys they just were able to exploit the vulnerability in the tipbot into giving all the coins to one user through the !tip command and then withdraw.

I will get SubCreative to update you guys on that soon

Cool... Jan 25th for the release.  Nice!

I'm sorry to hear about the Cannatip IRC tipbot exploit.  Thank you for the detailed information SubCreative and let us hope that the attacker(s) decide to return the stolen funds.

Cool thanks.  I am not sure about Cryptorush, I will verify this as well.  Poloniex back up though.  Cheers

there is a lot of CXC trading on Bittrex.  the price is of course below ICO, but the volume is good with plenty of coins available.  this is a great opportunity for people to get in

a proof-of-attack concept, nice.  i knew this would be developed eventually.  i like the idea of burning coins into your network in exchange to crash the coin.  i don't have any worthless coins but i know many people have millions that they cannot offload anywhere.  this is an interesting project
 

I will get right to it.

Hybridsole has been working on submitting some design ideas and thread translations to fiverr. You can get in contact with him pretty easily on IRC, Reddit, or Bitcointalk to get involved in this.

One thing you can do is help putting the translations into the Cannacoin OP post: http://pastebin.com/u1pRCVcS

This is pretty easy just a little time consuming. You can test it on Bitcointalk by posting it in our Cannacoin main thread and using the preview button to make sure the formatting is all correct. We can then take it from there and post it over in the corresponding language. The translations have to be professional so it should only be done by native speakers of those languages.

If anyone wants to get together with Hybridsole and sponsor some more $5 fiverr submissions that would be great.  I can also go through all of the fiverr finished projects and see what else we can do with them.

We are interested in some new graphics design work and are looking for someone with graphics design skills to volunteer a little time in exchange for some Cannacoins.

Even if your skills are limited, you can always submit a sketch or rough draft to Fiverr.com and they can improve it.

We are also still working on getting another wallet compiled that will give no false-negatives with anti-virus software.  I am currently using a Windows build that gives less false-negatives and also improves connections greatly. If you want to use the new Windows build of Cannacoin-QT then PM me for a link.  More of us should test this build if we are running Windows clients.

Finally, our team as you know is intimately involved in the Cannabis industry.  We are having discussions with industry leaders regularly about Cannacoin and the future of the blockchain in their respective businesses.  We are looking at every angle to develop cryptocurrency-based innovations for producers and suppliers of products and services in the Cannabis industry.  We are also strictly following all legal regulations in these industries and constantly monitoring the regulation of cryptocurrencies and their application in the private sector going forward.  We believe that the financial regulations for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies that are developed in New York and become the standard for Wall Street will become a model for either federal or state policy through the rest of the United States.
