Hello, everyone.

Please note that checking the support email -- poloniex@gmail.com -- is higher priority than checking this thread.

Deposit/withdrawal problems. The wallet server is getting bogged down with the recent massive increase in activity. It's out of memory. I've ordered a much better server with twice the memory and room to expand.

Let me explain why people are getting things like "PENDING: 15 of 3 confirmations." The deposit/withdrawal daemon runs in a sequence. First, it checks the transactions in the wallets, one after the other, updating confirmations of pending deposits and adding new deposits. Next, it checks to see which deposits have enough confirmations and credits accounts. Then it processes withdrawals, one after the other.

The daemon is on a timer--it restarts every n seconds. Sometimes, something massively slows down the process, usually a wallet taking forever to respond. If things slow down enough, the daemon will restart before it has finished the entire process. You'll get "PENDING: 15 of 3 confirmations" if it never gets to the second step, namely crediting deposits with sufficient confirmations. Withdrawal delays happen for the same reason.

Developers among us will no doubt see right away how this can be improved--multithreading. I'll work on that soon, before any new market additions.

I promise, it's a very high priority to avoid Cryptsy-like deposit/withdrawal nightmares.

snailbrain pointed out that 1 wouldn't be enough to get start with TX fees, so now there are two giveaways. 300 people can get 2 HUC each!

I'd like to put this coin up on Poloniex, if that's okay with snailbrain.

In order to do that, I'll need a little HUC (a single coin is plenty) to test deposits and withdrawals. If someone is feeling generous: H7yjH9HahqXLWFFpRV6jXh8MeDuPeGc4xw

I'm very intrigued by Huntercoin, and it will be going on Poloniex.

Porcupine87, both suggestions are in the queue to be added. The first one--clicking the logos to go to the market--is likely to be added first. The second one isn't too difficult on the face of it, but it will introduce a lot of javascript to the page, and I want to make sure it doesn't slow things down.

Sorry about that! I've PM'd you.

Just so every knows, the fastest way to get support is to email poloniex@gmail.com. The majority of support requests go there, so I check it a lot more often than I check bitcointalk. I'll update the first post with this info.

This is an excellent idea. Glad there is still innovation going on around here.

Which wallet version is the latest? The one I pulled from github says "60401"--is that correct?

Exciting news, everyone -- two-factor authentication has been implemented at Poloniex! You'll need the Google Authenticator app for your phone in order to use it.

MtheK, the ticker for all markets at Poloniex can be fetched in JSON format from poloniex.com/ticker.

Looks like a nice app!

This is an interesting idea. Is there an easy way to tell how many coins have been minted so far?

New giveaways just posted--come get 10 PMC and 1024 FRQ.

No, but everyone once in a while, an email gets lost in the void. Post or PM your username and I'll confirm your account for you.

The ProsperCoin folks seem to be a lot more on top of promotion than most (all?) coin developers I've dealt with. They've got a plan and ideas and they're putting time in.

Thanks maardein!

Just wanted to let everyone know that we're doing a big PRC (ProsperCoin) giveaway. There's going to be five 50 PRC giveaways over the next 5 days, to give everyone a chance to get some. PRC is rare, and each giveaway is for 0.2 PRC.

Is there a logo for this coin, other than the big pile of bills?

Poloniex is now hosting coin giveaways! As of this writing, an eTOK giveaway is going on. Visit https://poloniex.com/giveaways to claim your share.
