Works fine on Linux with me.

Bitcoin is retarded. I don't support Bitcoin. Only scrypt based coins.

Scrypt based coins have 99.9% the same coding as Bitcoin.

*facepalm*

I think we can safely say this was a fair launch with a high starting difficulty and no insta-mine.

Yes. The way it should be.
2764  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scrypt ASIC on: July 07, 2013, 08:02:59 PM
No offence taken, but I could still try to reprogram these to talk to the other components or even hire someone to. Also these chips are tiny, 7.5 x7.5 (mm) meaning that you could put tons of these onto a circuit board so you can defeat the 2 processor problem.

*facepalm*

Not really. We are currently all decentralized. Like it should be.

Err, why?  Huh

100x Amazon EC2, 4.5$x100 = 450$ per hour go go

Oh lol, yeah it will be "fair cpu-only' start  Grin

EC2s are publicly available to everyone that wants to put their hand in their pocket.

Just over 7 hours to go now. Everyone get your botnets and clusters on standby.

If they are a total waste of money then why do the group buy organisers have such an easy time selling them.

I believe many people don't really understand Bitcoin properly. Particularly how the difficulty is calculated, adjusted and why it changes. Which is a shame, because it's clearly documented.
2770  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [XPM] [ANN] Primecoin Prerelease Announcement - Introducing Prime Proof-of-Work on: July 07, 2013, 08:09:05 AM
Just read white paper, looking on with interest.

I think the community should come to some agreed consensus that if a new alt-coin is released from now on without a white paper, we should all ignore it.

Why not follow a release schedule like coblee did with Litecoin, where the client was released ahead of time to let people install & test it, and the release itself consisted of simply releasing a config value?

I'm not sure if that system would work nowadays. Some twat would make their own genesis block and start the chain prematurely. The genuine chain would then start causing all sorts of confusion.

There would still be an official chain. People will want to use the real one, and it's easy to recognize which is real and which is fake.

This is true. I am only guessing.

It works, was first and technology demands it.

Not necessary because of being first. Google was the 20th search engine to emerge. It learnt from all it's previous competitors mistakes.
2774  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LTC will go to $15, $25 + on: July 05, 2013, 06:49:11 AM
Litecoin is gaining users left and right as they leave bitcoin to mine litecoin.
I've just recently stopped mining Litecoin because the diff is now too high. I think others will start following suit, particularly new people arriving into the crypto scene.

Only the most efficient or those stealing electricity will be left in the end.

Single most important thing is SECURITY.

As I predicted, people are mining ppcoin with their ASICs. What else is there to do with their shiny new overpriced USB Block Erupters?

Mine Bitcoin = Zero ROI.
Mine ppcoin = Possible ROI.

The 21 million coins is just an arbitrary number. If there was going to be 42 million, the price would be halved.

Presumably, it acts just exactly like bitcoin.  April Fool's joke or not, it is technically viable and operational.
This is true. Only problems are ASICs playing games with the diff and convincing the community it's worth using/mining.
2779  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [NEW CURRENCY] Maria 2.0 was banned, here is her proof. The birth of Bytecoin! on: July 03, 2013, 06:18:13 PM
Just found a block! We are starting to get back on track with this coin.

hello all  Smiley

could you help me ?
I cannot get to http://forum.bytecoin.in/ nor http://www.bytecoin.in

last week I lost 26 LTC in ugly scam of LTC-wallet.com and it still hurts.
Therefore I would like to know, Can we trust this project?
When it was released in the time of BTC peak valuation to USD and with name almost same as bitcoin?
 Huh  Huh  Does someone from you know personally the founders and developers?  Huh   Huh
Are main intentions of existence of this project good?
Is it not only greed of certain individual/s who would like to squeeze every little penny from bitcoin's April bubble for their enrichment?
e.g. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=174640.msg2184623#msg2184623

I apologize if my post would offend someone but I just cannot find many trustworthy information about this project on web right now.
Bytecoin was started as an April fool's joke. Need I say more.
2780  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why people holding their coins when the price is going down for sure... on: July 03, 2013, 05:08:26 PM
Not everyone is buying to speculate. Some of us are serious investors and we believe in the long-term value of Bitcoin, so we will keep holding and in some cases buying more as the price drops.

Still selling now, and buying later on lower values make you have more bitcoins for long term so whats wrong with you people Smiley

Where do you hold the flat when you sell? On an exchange? No thanks, might go mysteriously missing.
