I've had offers already and need to stress. IT'S THE WINDOWS BUILD THAT'S THE PROBLEM. Anyone and their grandmother can build for linux. Windows is another beast, especially cross compiling.

He's right... and it's not a problem unique to the FlappyCoin source... all the altcoins have the same issues with the complexity of compiling for Windows.

Realizing that now.

Unfortunately at this point it is something I probably could of done, 3 weeks ago. But people were deligated to figure that out 3 weeks ago while I and others worked on other stuff.

The build notes for all windows builds on altcoins are horrid to be perfectly honest.

I know... it's almost as if the build process is unique to every individual and not the source! Good documentation can make the very complex... very easy.

UPDATE ...
I changed pools to chasingcoin.com and received coins almost the same minute I started mining.
chain is fine and blocks are moving...
its that shit flappycoinpool.com .... deff scamming people...WARNING!

Back when the coin was new... flappycoinpool.com was called the OFFICIAL pool... mostly likely setup by the original developer of the coin. That says it all!

So we're not rebranding the coin from flappycoin to flapcoin... but for a while I did appreciate the branding consistency offered when dropping the "py":

would love to introduce a new forum where we all can meet and discuss the bright future of Flappycoin. It's a great time to have Flappycoins especially when its early as it is now.

Please sign up and post away, I'll be giving away 1,000 coins for the first 50 posters, please post your address on the forums.

If you have any suggestions how to improve the forums please feel to post in our suggestion box.

Thanks, Grin

Where's the link?

In addition to this thread we already have the following forums:

reddit.com/r/flappycoin
flappycoinforum.com

Another forum might just add fragmentation to the community.

hash.so shutting down... by far our biggest mining pool...

"Pool is closing end of April. If you have any coins anywhere, please setup an auto payout / request manual payout. Some pools have forked, so we might have lost some coins. Some pools are just stuck, those I will fix before I close everything down."

Is the Poloniex FLAP/LTC market frozen? Trades stopped working 6 hours ago.

and so it is...

Is the Poloniex FLAP/LTC market frozen? Trades stopped working 6 hours ago.

Cryptsy... please move FLAP to LTC market!

Cryptsy added FLAP/BTC market on March 7 and a few days later the coin's value fell to levels only the LTC market can support... but now over a month later they haven't moved FLAP to LTC market... I just don't get it!

buy orders are at 87.68 BTC total across all 4 exchanges that we're listed... be grateful that you didn't buy into something stupid like RBBT or BEE which have 0 buy orders!

Cryptsy just added RBBT/LTC market. RBBT (RabbitCoin) is another coin abandoned by it's dev team. The coin tripled in value in 1 day. There's now 400 LTC buy demand for the coin on Cryptsy alone. Compare that to the 50 LTC buy demand for FLAP on both Allcoin and Poloniex combined.

Cryptsy added BAT/BTC market on March 29 and a week later (April 6) they announced closure of that market and move to BAT/LTC... yet the coin has 5x the trade volume of FLAP... I just don't get it!

Is this is response to some kind of communication that you had with the original dev?

The original dev made the following 3 comments today on Reddit:

"New devs are working on that, don't worry"
"New dev is working on that, don't worry."
"Sure, but I'm little bit busy these days, let's find something that I can help."

Hey, no forking. We are still here in the project.

You made two posts on this forum since March 10... two posts in one whole month... and the coin is only two months old... you call that still here in the project?

only 100-150 million a day Wink

and until now i dont have a billion. so there are many people with more flappys out there i think.

with 35MHash (with gpu) you cant make money anymore so i make flappys

and i sell my gpu's slowly..

Your right... you never get the estimated coins/day. I hope someone else is paying for your electricity.

Quote from: chefbauer on April 07, 2014, 09:18:25 AM

at present I make many, many, many! millions of flappys a day. yes i know its very easy to mine and the coins are quite worthless.
i am at will to give some (many) millions away if someone want to seriously help.

* giveaways
* ask flappy-game developer if he would support a hard-fork (rights for logo?)

Saw you mining at 35MH/s and collecting something like 250 million coins a day. My guess is that you are the single largest holder with several billion FLAP. Great to have you on board!

Since there's no dev support on this coin... what will happen when the blockchain forks? There's no dev team to correct the problem... this coin has very serious issues moving forward with no active dev support.

Can anyone send a tweet to Dong and ask him about FlappyCoin ?

You all need to understand what you're asking Dong (the original FlappyBird developer) to do... he can't simply plug FlappyCoin into his game!

The wallet is not even designed to scale up to thousands of users with tens of thousands of transactions. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Accounts_explained#Account_Weaknesses

To implement any crypto-currency he would require major back-end database infrastructure supporting millions of users and countless transactions between those users every minute or even second... a very complex and costly thing to setup. At present he has zero back-end requirements and is making a killing on simple ad clicks with a solely front-end app..

These are just some of the reasons why there are no mobile games out there that currently integrate crypto-currency.

Unless we have a miracle... don't expect this coin to be integrated with the FlappyBird game any time soon!

Interesting. How would you have done it differently? Given it's trading coins and the security issues involved, I don't see how they could not have had it link to the largest exchange for security and best trade volume?

It's not about the way it was done... but what it's called. Adding a link to an external exchange is not a built-in exchange. Nothing was built into the wallet except for a link. Having website links within our wallet does not make it any better than other wallets.

Many of us already feel mislead by the developer (see below) and now this just adds to that feeling.

"Task 1: Integrate the FlappyCoin game to FlappyCoin blockchain (like Huntercoin but much more fun). The team is focusing on this, we may have a hard fork at block 100,000th to integrate the game - Most important!"
SOURCE: https://bitcointa.lk/threads/flap-flappycoin-help-needed-lot-of-bounties.269852/

Nothing of the sort. Turned out to be just a link to a webpage game... even that never worked correctly.

New wallet released in to versions. Not tested it yet myself

http://www.reddit.com/r/flappycoin/comments/214xq9/flappycoin_qt_wallet_200_released/

I checked the source (the new trading fork) at https://github.com/flappycoin-project/flappycoin/blob/trading/src/qt/tradingpage.cpp. As you can see all that's being added to the wallet are links to http://exchange.flappycoin.info. And that site is just a front-end for Cryptsy (user still needs to create account on Cryptsy site and enter API keys into this site). It would be easier just to use Cryptsy by itself.

There's no real innovation here.

Also note the site https://exchange.flappycoin.info does not support SSL encryption correctly. It is using the certificate from flapwallet.com.

i read somewhere that pools wallet crashed.

edit: if you go to Pool tab you will see: Unable to connect to wallet RPC service: Connect error: Connection refused (111)

flappycoinpool.com hasn't worked for 16 hours now. It's the official pool so Dev must have involvement... so we can expect the pool to be fixed in a few weeks.

The FlappyCoin game inside the wallet was too heavy. we decided to skip it and update straight to the built-in exchange inside wallet (which is completed). Will release the new version tomorrow.

What was heavy about building the game into it? Looking at the source you were just creating a tab in the wallet that launched the game from an external website. When you say "built-in exchange"... what exactly does that mean? I don't mean to be negative... but I hope it's not just another attempt at adding a tab that launches an external website like the game... adding tabs that launch external websites provides little innovation to the wallet... just sayin...

[EDIT] I really want to help (and so do many others)... if you can't truly integrate the game or exchange as stand-alone with-in the wallet (not just links to external websites) just say so... we can help you explore other possibilities... PM me or anyone else and we will help with coding issues...
