You can easily find me and confirm my identity. To tell you the truth - I find this insulting. I would suggest you to continue with your weed stuff instead jumping on me like that.

Thank you for the assistance.

If this is true (and I already expressed my doubts), it would be foul play and there is no need to support such "projects". I don't believe that issue with wallet has forced the dev to disappear. He may have some personal problems as well. This is not the case though. Let's say that the dev is back (and he had no personal problems). What happens next? We are going to bet on when he will be gone again? This is not serious and people imo should move on.

I guess I will say goodbye to my 5k coins. Nice attitude, dev.

I don't like that either, but they were positive comments so try to look from the bright side. All is good.

This is what is happening - we are discussing VIA's future. In order to move further, we must have some positive attitude first. I also want to read something about development/adoption when I am notified for replies, but I think we are now closer to those moments. No need to explain rules and such.

Current situation on the market is mainly because of the people's greed. You can look on my Twitter's header and see what it says. It's obvious that few "developers" (I'll put them in quotation marks not because they can't code or they are stupid, but because when you create something you should also take care about it) have launched 10s of coins with the only intention to earn some money, leave them and just launch another one. It's quite normal (in this world), but worst is that people actually follow those trends with the same idea - to get rich quick. They don't think about what will happen in let's say 5 years.. I have and I will always repeat that. As we speak I am working on one extremely simple video (it's not my strongest side) which will present past and current situation very clearly (and epic...). It will be ready in 3-5 days.

 
About the adoption.. I know that too (despite that barabbas claimed something different). It was here (in btctalk) when I recently said that I'd prefer seeing Bill Gates's announcement that he will invest 10% of his fortune into cryptocurrencies rather than seeing 1 million coders work on one (or different) project/s. Bitcoin is not the best cryptocurrency out there (and we all know that), but it is more widely adopted than any others. That's why it's currently worth $243. VIA is far from doomed project as long Drak continue his work on it. Sooner or later people will understand that this is not the way and then many of them will be gone, others (talking about normal Joe) will turn their eyes into something different than shitcoins.

EDIT: How is developing and adoption works on cryptocurrencies? It's pretty simple. You have Drak and Todd here who are giving you the tech side. After that John pops up and says:
- Your idea looks good, but what I am going to do with that coin?
Here comes Joe:
- I can make dice game (sounds pretty simple, but I'm just giving examples).
Then Bob says:
- Your website sucks and I think I can do it better.
Mary:
- I know pretty good online shop for gift cards and such.. it will be very good if they start to accept VIA.

This is how basically (explained simple) works. What I am trying to say is that somebody are good in their fields, but they suck on others. This is when people who know their stuff are involved. But this has to be a choice. For example, I have faced 10s of people in which minds is only Bitcoin and that's it. If you ask them for something, they want BTC. I don't blame them at all, but let's think a bit for a moment. If we talk about profits, how much do you think they can earn in the long run? Somebody has been paid $1000 in BTC and 2 months later those $1000 can be either $800 (if he don't cash them out) or $1200. What if he's good, he works hard and has been paid with the same amount, but in other currency? Are we all here just to take some BTC, cash them out and pay for hookers or yachts? Don't you guys think that this can make you money in short term, but with that attitude soon there will be nothing to make money from? I believe that there are much more possibilities for better profit, but that's just my opinion. How about If you have invested your time or money in some coin, why wouldn't you try do something and help it? It depends on you if it's going to work out or not.

I was involved in VIA, because it looks good as a project, but it sucks as community. I am also talking here, because I will always try to defend good cryptocurrencies. It's not always working, because not everybody are whales nor has number of skills which will push their projects further. That's why we are all in pain (I'm not talking about money here) and we will continue to suffer, until some people realize that it's not all about the money itself, but because humanity and unite as well.

Yup.. and I'm stuck at block 427592.

Btw, Mr. Roshan. You didn't said anything for like 40 days. Since then SFR don't have significantly drop in price which means that people are patient in some way. Don't you think that you should step up and just say something instead logging on and off from time to time?

Wine is good enough, but not the best. Bulgaria have very good wine in general, but not in my area. People are mostly producing it for themselves. But there is a very good rakia though (russians have vodka, irish and scotish people have whisky... we have rakia).


Barabbas has good observations indeed and as I already said - I mentioned them to Drak several times. I would say that I like his visions, but I don't like his approach. If I for example spot some problem in something which is good in general, I am trying to point it quietly. Why do you think I wanted to stop conversations about price and such? Why I did said number of times that this is not the way to protect your invesment? The answer is pretty simple. No matter how good are suggestions about development or remarks about the price, they become destructive at some point while repeating them. Why? Because many people lose their confidence. Not all people have balls to go through hard times, or money to pay their bills while they are losing. That is why you said that this is hopeless market. Why do you think I am so avid supporter of FAIL? Why do you think I'm wasting time and money on that cryptocurrency? Because I don't like how cryptocurrencies look at the moment. Because I want people to unite and support what matters, not what can earn them 0.1 BTC for 5 minutes.

Hello, Mr. altcoinUK,

Let me tell you something about my life. I posted my ID... I don't mind talking about my life either. I was born in a small bulgarian town called Razlog. My family was working class family and we were relatively poor. We had apartment and (not always) some food on the table, but nothing more. My brother (3.5 years younger) and I weared old (very often second hand) clothes, we didn't have any money, but we were happy as Razlog is extremely beautiful place (will post picture) surrounded by 3 mountains and one hill so our childhood was pretty intensive. Somewhere around 1987 my mother started to sew clothes from catalogs (you come, pick the model and she copy it for you), but things didn't go too well so she decided to start selling fruits and vegetables. I traveled (when I wasn't at school) with her to buy products about 130 km. from our town hitchhiking 2 times a week. We then selling on markets 7 days/week.   

In 1990 our parents divorced and we stayed with our father (God bless his soul... he died 8 months ago) for about 5 years. After that we moved in Sofia with our mother, because my father couldn't support us both.

In 1991 my mother created (and still produces them) first bulgarian wax (product which is used mostly by women to remove their hair) and nail polish remover. From 1995 (when we arrived in Sofia) to 2001 I was studying and working in her company. I was laborer, driver (when I got my driving license), one of the distributors and everything.

Around year 2000 people from military started to call me for duty, but frankly speaking.. I didn't wanted to go to army not, because I was afraid or something, but because I thought I'll lose my head start in life. That is why I decided to start studying to get bachelor degree, but things went further. I am now Master in Marketing and Business administration and I have certificate "A" from Sofia Commodity exchange.

If we rewind a bit, in 2001 I started ISP company. By around 2005 I've had more than 15 competitors in area which is probably about 3-4 sqare kilometers. I was running the company until 2010, when I decided to sell it with nice profit, because of the monopoly which started. It's normal.. bigger companies are eating smaller ones.

Since 1999 I am also self-taught computer engineer (will post a picture about how I am fixing things).

Now... my intentions wasn't to argue with barabbas or you about which is right and which is not. I just said number of times that asking about price and FUDing is not the way to fix things. Suggestions too (because they are not actions imho). That's it. It's obvious that VIA has problems and of course some actions must be made, but this is not the way. Your way is proving other guy wrong or stupid, because your opinion is always right. You guys probably like to hear your voice too.

This are just thoughts from one spoiled and stupid child with limited business experience, so please don't take it too seriuosly.

Regards,
Spartak

I'm actually 34, but I don't mind to be described as a stupid child. As I said - at least I am straight and I am transparent. You guys already proved your superiority in that matter, and I can't wait to get autograph from each of you.

I have send 5k coins to dice game and... FAIL - they didn't confirmed on the site.

This is not how I "play". I am setting small sell orders which covers my expenses, but I never sell that low. I'd rather miss potential small profit than dump so early.

I have never researched renting as I have my miners since May 2014. Now this hashrate is not a big deal so probably I must either buy new miners or look for some rents.

That's expensive. I am paying about 20$/day for electricity and I have about 400MH.

EDIT: I have mined 130k coins for 10 hours so it means it cost me about 10-12$.

Hashrate is over 337 GH

I bet that this binbin is with 9.5GH on suprnova.

I feel something is wrong with diff. retargeting...

barabbas, the only clueless person in here is you. I even have a friend like you. He's like:
- Spartak, it's 8PM now.
- I know, thank you.

.. and...
- But do you know why is 8PM?
- Do you know who invented clock?
- What if someone doesn't have a clock?

etc.. etc.. etc..

I am not here to be taught. I am here to defend one of the good (technical) projects out there. Drak could even confirm I have said: "Drak, barabbas has some valid points and you must do something.". He understand and he knows what to do. I am also quite sure that he is preparing for some actions in that matter.

I really feel sorry for you to tell you the truth (and I'm completely honest). In Bulgaria we call people like you "дървен философ", but on english it must be wiseacre.

No... 1 hour and 53 minutes.
