As I see you have your agenda. I guess soon you will inform us about those more friendly communities with emerging cryptos Smiley.
2902  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who remembers litecoin @ $1 ?? on: April 08, 2014, 11:56:10 AM
I've been there too. In that time it was mostly about fun and I thought that we are forging a new, maybe better world. I think I was quite a bit naive Smiley.
2903  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are Litecoin supporters so unfriendly towards other Cryptos? on: April 08, 2014, 11:27:05 AM
Because of everybody who ever heard about alts will think LTC is just yet another clonecoin (that's actually more or less true) or something similar to that crap what flooded the market recently.

What would I do without Mrs. Bit_Happy to provide me with a nonstop source of blowsy prophecies to complain about? Before I say anything else, let me remind Mrs. Bit_Happy that I'm willing to accept that her detractors are correct in their observation that she is an expert at faking sincerity. I'm even willing to accept that I must, on principle, overcome the obstacles that people like her...

TLDR

Could you tell me please where did you find this excellent bullshit generator?

Interested. ...and curious Smiley.
2906  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin Creator (Charlie Lee) Recommends Merged Mining with Dogecoin on: April 07, 2014, 02:23:19 PM
The whole software issue is just a matter of deployment.
From the wallets to the miners. To make it consumer and industry usable at all.

And as I said, any coin whose security is dependent on the network size is a flawed concept from the beginning.
It's like putting the cart before the horse. PoW has to be secured by other means, and it is already.

I don't think the concept of pure Scrypt PoW coins, secured by the tiny ASIC LOBBY, have any viable future.
The big money will be thrown at other models.

What are those "other means"?

All coins are more or less dependent on the network. Even the POW-POS coins are.
2907  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin Creator (Charlie Lee) Recommends Merged Mining with Dogecoin on: April 07, 2014, 11:26:22 AM

You know that this is utter nonsense.
Any coin relying on network size for security reasons is a flawed concept in the first place.

Go ahead and merge, that'll be the end for both coins.
I wouldn't mind actually, all these crap Scrypt PoW coins getting out of the way.

You should instead think more about how you could make it a usable product for end customers.
Instead of trying to cheat more people out of their investments.
SCAM - SHITCOINS - your words - applies to LITE and DOGE more than ever in the meantime.


I agree with the usable product part, but coins really need multi peta hashrate for security and to ensure a steady flow of coins.
If you take a look at CPU coins you will see that most of them are vulnerable to botnets. GPU mined scrypt coins are vulnerable to big players... and both are vulnerable to new more profitable coins.

IMO only ASICs and merged mining can secure a blockchain. Not just because of the sheer power of the ASICs but also because of buying for example a scrypt ASIC means that you have long term plans with that particular algo, and you (and thousands of other miners) will not reconfigure your rigs tomorrow for let's say DRK and leaving your previous favorite (scrypt)coin with some tiny hashrate, thus making it a sitting duck.
2908  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: New CrytoCoin Fatique Syndrome. on: April 07, 2014, 10:50:14 AM
Cryptos are an unregulated (aka free) market. Regulating it because of a couple of clueless noobs burned themselves or failed to get rich quick would be the worst idea. BTW who would be the "regulatory board"? BCX? Muddafudda & Co? Some of the noobs mentioned above? You? (At the current rate I'd vote for BCX Smiley ).

Here's an alternative idea. Try to regulate yourself. E.g. don't buy into obvious scams, leave alone the clone coins (where you cant see any innovations or good ideas) and the latest and greatest Chinese "CPU" coins, watch for the well known red flags in the announcements... and go for the more established stuff.
2909  Economy / Securities / Re: MPEx owner in danger of being extradited to US to face charges on: April 03, 2014, 03:49:35 PM
As I see the SEC asking for information about Eric Voorhees not about MPEx, so I think at this time EV is the one to worry not MP. You guys shouldn't let your feelings to mislead your situation awareness Smiley.

Where did you get that from?

The SEC have contacted Popescu and requested an interview with him (by phone) which he denied them. If you think that means they will not be interested in him you are crazy.

From the Bloomberg article in OP Smiley. They linked the letter form SEC in the "The SEC sent a letter asking MPEx, an online exchange for Bitcoin-based trading, to provide contracts and other documents relating to SatoshiDice.com, according to a copy of the request posted on the website trilema.com." part. You can see here: http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014-0303-popescu-mpex.pdf

But probably you know more than me, because of I haven't heard about the denied phone interview. Could you tell me where can I find more details, please?

2911  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I bet 98% of you do not realize this about Ripple on: April 02, 2014, 12:08:20 PM
Let's see Ripples real world applications= none. No thanks.

Actually they started building a massive network of gateways and also established a couple of "strategic partnerships". That's why they phasing out WCG and setting up a new incentive scheme for extending their economy.

Anyway, Google Ventures rarely makes big mistakes, so IMO it's good to have some XRP on stock. Probably it will worth more in the future.
2912  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hullcoin: The World’s First Local Government Cryptocurrency on: April 02, 2014, 11:56:06 AM
I think the implementation could have been thought out better (+1 to the coloured coins suggestion) but this part gets a big thumbs up. So long as no one tries to wrap red tape around everything they could slash their council budget with this, it could be worth while to investigate implementing a voting system either within the coin or parallel to it.

After reading the related articles I think Hullcoin isn't fully implemented at this time. It looks like a pilot, where the basic infrastructure is there but only very limited services are available. Anyway it's a good experiment and the next logical step after Bristol Pound and similar things. According to my readings Ven has some kind of voting procedure but I have no idea if that's part of the system or a parallel thing on Hubculture.
2913  Economy / Services / Re: [BTC.sx] Get paid for your signature on: April 02, 2014, 09:53:15 AM
I have received the payment. Thanks Smiley.
2914  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hullcoin: The World’s First Local Government Cryptocurrency on: April 02, 2014, 09:14:43 AM
You can't (at this moment). As I seen you have to go to Hull, then start doing some voluntary work and you will get some.
2915  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Gambits Official Pump Thread (New Profit Coming Soon) on: April 02, 2014, 08:51:03 AM
Could you pump AUR please:). Bugs (almost) fixed, the argument between the owners and BCX settled, the scam accusations settled as well, it's freakin' cheap, and I just have bought a lot Smiley.

2917  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: @TheCryptoRush -What the hell is going on on: March 31, 2014, 01:25:09 PM
Yes they need to update members every day but no response is creating more problems for them and more frustration for coins holders

Agree. What they doing is quite an unprofessional approach.
I was upset with these rumors and lost my 75% of all total holds at this exchange

Sorry to hear that.
2918  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) Fair & FREE Distribution | Pure PoS | No Premine! on: March 31, 2014, 01:10:29 PM
I have received my coins today.
Thanks for sending them.

I am looking forward for the next action.
Instead of going for an exchange straight way, I think we should redistribute some of our coins and develop some services around it.
Lets attract more people first.

We could be the trend setter, where in the exchanges should be talking to us, for listing our coin and not the other way around.  Grin

Can we stake holders  start a bounty for a block explorer?
I am pledging 10,000 COMM for the block explorer.
Anyone else?



I'm also willing to pledge an other 10000 COMM for the block explorer.
2919  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) Fair & FREE Distribution | Pure PoS | No Premine! on: March 31, 2014, 01:09:12 PM
Received my coins. Thanks guys!
2920  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is becoming obsolete. on: March 31, 2014, 01:06:21 PM
It would be nice to see a distributed exchange and some faster developments sometimes, but calling BTC obsolete is a bit of an exaggeration.
