I missed the ICO and came across ETC - Ethercoin on Bittrex and they were going to exchange their coins for ETH once released, I picked up a few but got rid of them just before the ETH release at a small profit as it seemed to look like there would be a massive dump before a stable price would take place as all the ICO folk would no doubt unload their coins after waiting so long.

I have also some ETC on Bettrex and dont know how to go forward.
so the coins will be changed automaticalle into ETH if the released on Bittrex ? when ? and where does thins information come from.
or is it easier to go the way over https://www.kraken.com/ether ?
for me it makes no sense to hold the ETC because the will dying, right ?

There is no reason why ETC should survive. ETH has a huge inflation... There is no need for ETC. Funny that the ETC-price is over the ETH-price. Makes no sense.

Can anyone tell me where is the wallet.dat located for the Neos wallet?

I don't think its in the normal %appdata% location, any help appreciated Smiley

I think its easier to pull the wallet.dat file and install a new wallet on another computer and put the wallet.dat file back.

I just need to access the Neos in the wallet so I can transfer it to the exchange.

Many thanks


That's windows, right? I'm on Mac and it's a hidden folder.

For windows, maybe/hopefully this could be helpful:

It's been more than 24 hours since IPO and you still have to wait hours and hours for your funds to be available if you transact.

So if you want to sell better add the wallet directly to kraken.

Really it's shameful that not a single word was spread officially about the IPO or about how you can sell your coins.

Also if you have a problem and need support, good luck with that.

Satoshi was just one guy and would reply as soon as possible to any support request.

Satoshi was paid by No one to revolutionize the world! Yet these ethereum guys get I don't know how much millions and don't even communicate properly with whoever uses ethereum.

Ethereum reminds me of Mastercoin, now called Omni, go check it out, they made an IPO similar to Ethereum were they raised millions, promising to revolutionize the world... go check it out where they are now.

I don't have any ETH... Just watching and trying to figure out if this has potential or not. But if you're right and the deposits on the exchanges still have a delay, the price most likely will continue to fall.
2965  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum - Stay out! on: August 09, 2015, 11:32:32 AM
And by the way, if you want to sell your pre-sale ethereum, don't transfer them!

You can add your pre-sale wallet directly to kraken here: http://www.kraken.com/ether

If you transfer your coins you have to wait about 25 hours to be completed!

This is what they don't want you to know!

Is there still a delay in processing transactions? Thought that would be just because of the rollback-warning and between this time:


Ethereum deposits are delayed 24 hrs from 2015-08-07 03:50 UTC per dev request. The developers may rollback the chain up to 24 hours in case of an issue. As a result, the developers asked all exchanges to wait 5760 confirms (24 hours) to credit ETH deposits in case the chain is rolled back.

Go ahead and drop some btc's on this then.   
 

I already did. It wasn't much, but I will buy more if I see chances that this project will start. Until now it doesn't get enough attention and that kind of attention it should get. And I'm not talking of buying blind the CFC without any questions. But the idea is worth it to be discussed with a focus on it's potential. It seems, the majority is more interested in gambling, throwing BTC to Copycats with some nice pics and one-line-promises. They just follow those, who won't hesitate to rob them... It needs a new generation of Investors. Innovative Devs with unique ideas are already in the market. Enough people who are able to think for themselves and distinguish between real potential and silly hypes are missing.

You're right, but I'm not joking. If you were in his situation, wouldn't you fear anything? And if not... why? Because it would be that easy to say "I got hacked" if there should be (hopefully will be) an investigation? It's not about a few thousand dollars. It's about millions.

And if you think about some of those who tried it to say "Ooops, sorry, I got hacked...", you have to think of this guys as well:

cloakcoin dumping hard Sad


It's not dumping. There are some who hoped the price would explode because of the audit and now selling. Would be better if they would read it and think about what's coming the next weeks. I think there are enough reasons to be optimistic. Also the price-dynamic is positive. A pumping now would lead to dump-on-release. To build a strong bottom in this price range is a good base for a higher price for those with a little patience.

The more I think about this the more interesting it is to me. The first point: I mentioned several times in several posts that I believe that the future of Crypto will be a combination of financial system and social-network. And one problem of Crypto is: It's mostly focused on the paymentsystem-aspect and there are already 500 and more Coins and maybe just Bitcoin is really used.

Crypto as a payment system has huge potential and I'm pretty sure it will change the financial system and go mainstream (I mean it in general, Blockchain-Technology). Most of the currently existing Altcoins have just one use: Trading - buy and sell with the aim for profit. And I don't mean that critical in any way. I like that game.

But: What is interesting about this idea and kind of paradox if I understand it right: Because it's not so focused on the financial aspect it could be a good buy if it should unfold (don't know if it's the right word) a dynamic to a social-network or be used in a social network. And: With it's own inherent economy. That's very interesting as well! And if I say "interesting" I absolutely mean interesting as an investment.

To quote TheMage:


(...)

This is NOT a "coin", this is a way to utilize the technology. Unfortunately there are a lot of people here that can not see this.
 


What do people all the time? Communicate. What do we here and everywhere in the Internet? Communicate... But everywhere there is "somebody" who can make and change the rules. And so it would bring indeed something new and something that would be used now if it would be already here. It's worth to think about it! Would it be used if it would already exist? I would say the answer is "Yes". That's different to most of all the other projects.


But: Would it be possible to bring such an idea into existence without a CFC? Maybe yes, if rich people would be behind it, enough time to code something like this in their 24-hours-a-day-freetime and to pay PR for it out of their pocket. But would rich people start something like this? I doubt that! And one fact in Crypto is in my opinion: It maybe doesn't need money to start something. But it needs some money to start a dynamic and to let it grow.

And I believe that we see here something like a misunderstanding. I have the advantage to know Stoner. Therefore I had no doubt it's legit. My questions was more: What the hell is this? And "is it possible to develop?" I'm not sure I completely understand it now. But I'm sure the most people focus to much on the CFC and claiming it would be "expensive" or even it could be a Scam. And I know Syntaks. He posted his statement (whoever doesn't know it, read it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1141617.msg12046250#msg12046250) and now there are no more Scam-Accusations and it's obvious that there are very skilled Devs behind it. But some still believing it's too expensive. And that's simply not true if you compare it to Supernet or Blocknet and some other known ICOs. It's cheap. And in my eyes: This idea has more potential. It also has more potential reach something like a "self-dynamic".


What's the problem? I believe it would have been good to announce it 2-3 weeks before the CFC and to give people more time to understand that this is not just another Coin. Maybe it was the "ninja-announcement-CFC" ;-)  ...that brought up some concerns (and accusations).


To sum it up, just my perspective: At this moment it's unpredictable if the CFC will reach the minimum to be considered as a success. But if not, it should have a second chance in some way. And it absolutely needs more attention. It doesn't get the attention it deserves.

If I would be the Boss of this I would have made a CFC before the CFC to make money for PR for the CFC! ;-))

That = paid shills.  She blatantly admits it!

Analogies are getting interesting (not that they always weren't)...

https://i.imgur.com/jeYVMB6.jpg


That's funny and good timing, because I just wanted to write that I believe that their biggest problem since the start is Paycoin. They went public in a time people slowly understood that XPY was/is a Scam, watching their Investments going down. And even if the Neucoin-Design is different to Paycoin, the marketing under the line is the same: "Give-us-your-money-because-we-are-big-and-professional".

And everybody can think about it, how things would be if there would have been the XPY-Desaster... I believe much more people would have reacted positive and happy to send money etc. And most likely the Neucoin-Super-Team would've been much faster.

Funny is by the way, what they claimed in the ANN: "NeuCoin’s founding team, which started the NeuCoin Project in March (...)"

Would like to know how they define the word "start". Does it mean they're working since March 14 at it and are still not ready for a launch? Hard to believe anything of all what they say.

Having some issues with the wallet. Was working fine up to a few weeks ago.

Now all I get is a blank page. I tried using the launcher to stop then restart Neos and then clicked "open wallet" button but still blank.
I've tried Firefox, IE, Chrome and safari, all have the same blank white page: http://127.0.0.1:18000/wallet.php

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate, all updates installed and 32GB RAM. Not sure if its relevant but I did register for the Windows 10 upgrade (not installed yet).

I have removed my Neos wallet addy from the exchange so there are no payments coming through.

I think there's about 1,200 Neos in the wallet otherwise I'd just delete and re-install.

Any help appreciated Smiley

I will leave Syntaks a PM in the IRC (if you want to join: https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#neoscoin). He is very busy at the moment but I'm sure he will contact you as soon as possible. Won't be a problem for him to get you fixed. Wink

WE DON'T CARE IF IT'S LEGIT - IT'S TOO FUCKIN' EXPENSIVE.

Why? It's a serious question. I've read it several times now that it's too expensive. But let's imagine it's all true what Stoner and Syntaks pointed out (and I have zero doubts about that but understand that others, who don't know them, may have doubts)...

If all should be true, why you call it expensive?

Again.

Most of the volume on Bittrex these days is fake. The only way to make any money on icos these days is to buy a cheap one that gets pumped, and even then it's a real rarity. (when was the last prior to Circuits? I can't even remember). A bunch of nonsense for a roadmap and a hugely optimistic goal worked a year and a half ago, now? you gotta be kidding. Stupid money is long gone. Even if 600 self bought coins are thrown at it you still won't come close to 800, the mkt cap will be way to high at the start. People left in this game are still here because they can do math.

I see... you and me are very different how we think about Crypto.

Let's do the math: If the ICO will be a success but with the minimum of 800 BTC it would be at a marketcap of $ 224,000.
Paycoin (and everybody should know it's absolutely worthless) is still and after a constant dropping at $ 457,339  (it was at the high at $150 Mio)

The initial marketcap of R3D would be at place 77. I would say that's absolutely not too expensive for a big project like this.

And sure... it can't be successful if people still focus on nice pictures without any meaning, silly promises instead of unique ideas, worship known pumpers who will give a shit about the project itself etc.... (yes, because you've mentioned CIRC Wink )

Hi folks,

     It was nearly exactly a year ago that I posted an announcement about a CFC for a system and was faced with the same responses, scrutiny and reluctance as Jared (Stoner) is now.  I was fortunate enough that those who were familiar with my work or had worked with me spoke up in favor in those times of skepticism.  Ultimately, it was a mixture of those whom had vouched for me as well as some blind yet curious faith that led those uncertain to follow the progress.  Some of you may know me, some not.  Since before that CFC went live and to this day, I've been here and have released several versions of Neos and have continued to support it.  The channel on IRC is consistently filled with folks who can attest to the fact that I live there more or less.  I've been involved in crypto for a few years now, and it's the only work I not only enjoy but have a very strong passion about.  I don't support scams nor get involved with them.  I will however, call a scam out if i realize the community is in harm's way and may or may not realize it.  I'm always upfront and honest to a fault with this community.

Over the course of time, I shifted from developing full-time on Neos into what I've been referred to as a "hired gun", or a contract developer.  I'm approached by many for development work ranging from initial development, to infrastructure and debugging.  If a coin is broken or needs upgrades, a hard fork with economic or network changes - I'll decide if I want to get involved based on the people involved, what I know about the project and people and if I feel it's just a quick cash grab.  This space is filled with enough people losing money on fly-by-night pseudo developers endlessly promising fairy tales.  Jared being a long-time friend, and fanatical Neos supporter and I were talking about the future of Neos a few months ago.  I had mentioned potentially shifting Neos to a PoS base as that was what the community was requesting so I was experimenting with some modifications.  Following that, I was looking for a system that could handle data on the network also - namely for aliases as the current system isn't built into the core.  Namecoin and Syscoin were my go-to's for reference so I began studying the code, and porting it into a stable PoS base to further experiment, spot areas of improvement and see exactly what could possibly be done to produce something new and useful for Neos.  Many projects have attempted to do so, some inefficiently and others with quite a few bugs.  I've been staring at this code for quite some time, the most subtle nuances that a blind eye wouldn't spot definitely have an impact on the end result and that's paramount.

Jared has referred many people to me for development work, and I've always taken it on as his referrals have been legitimate and paid well, and on time.  He approached me roughly a month and a half ago and asked if I could keep a project in the making to myself, and that he'd spoken with those involved prior to asking me if it was alright with them to divulge what they had in mind.  After we discussed the details of it, and I asked who else was involved he told me three of the other developers - and we knew each other.  The other folks involved I only know by alias and from the introduction by Jared.  The first thing discussed when we were all in a chat together was the sensitivity of keeping people's privacy in-tact.  The reason being, several of them aren't crypto devs but one of them is a developer for a known product, one of them in the political arena, and another person an analyst for a financial firm.  The fact is, the nature of this project and what it could potentially represent could be questionable and have a negative impact on their reputations or livelihood.  Me?  I'm just a developer with a passion for crypto who believes in freedom.

With that being said, I was given an initial amount of funds for my role within this project which I'll go into details regarding that shortly.  As much as the details of our arrangement are between us, I'm a pretty wide open book and I'm fine with disclosing the terms.  I've explained to the other folks I stand by what I believe in, and I've voiced my advocacy for freedom many times over publicly and that I wouldn't sit idle while the doubts were "emphatically" expressed.  If it were anything other than legitimate at least in my opinion, you would be seeing a post by me double in length and with even more rationale and facts to back it up.  So in all fairness and in the interest of someone's name and a project that's been worked on with enthusiasm as well as great dedication, I'm writing this.

There's a chicken and an egg situation here.  When the team discussed the terms of the ICO, the minimum required amount was discussed with growth and debt in mind.  The folks involved, including myself, can't afford to turn down work or income while working on another project on a promise alone.  Their arrangements and terms I'm not privy to, nor do I wish to be it's not my business.  However, to have me on board for the duties I'm responsible for myself - it wasn't an exorbitant amount nor was it the most humble.  We all have bills and people to pay and that's just business.  I've voluntarily stepped into the light here, my information is public and when I'm not coding I will answer questions to the best of my ability.

Regarding my responsibilities in this project and the role I play.  The developers at the time I had spoken with Jared were past the planning stage and were just basically outlining the details of the project and goals/milestones and what they'd like to see in the project, out of the project and needed in the project.  I think I can fairly say everyone's feelings towards the rapid censorship, especially as of late are not the fondest.  They had implemented some of their ideas into standard data messaging but they were having issues with a few aspects of it such as size, compression, delivery and basically a usable system that wasn't relying on heavy hash to keep the chain moving, or a PoS system that only urged people to hoard with the intention of profiting later from a) lack of supply in the wild and b) interest-based gains which would then just lead to flooding the market with sell orders.  Their goal and idea behind the system wasn't to price it for traders but aimed more towards something that was actually unique and usable.

So what do you do when PoS isn't a) always stable b) supportive of a healthy economy typically c) defeats the purpose of the system you're building?  What do you do to prevent the necessity of large hash to keep this network in motion without financial overhead?  My suggestion based on my aforementioned experimentation and knowledge was make an abundance available for the sale, auxpow mining since now we have scrypt asics everywhere and hash is readily available, and incentive based on a proportionate amount of reward based on use.  This system isn't made to sit idle, it's meant to be used and thus those who either directly mine it or auxpow it, will be rewarded based on that use.  A prime example, is I'd run the Neos forum on the system and get rid of the hosting fees we have right now for that server.  I thought this would be a great and practical actual *use* of blockchain technology instead of just a project based on finances.  There are others out there that have great systems in place for other uses, as there are others out there with only financial purposes.  Everything is derived from inspiration brought on by those with the thought in mind and reference of the past as well as present.  Syscoin is great, they themselves looked into Datacoin and Namecoin.  My role in this is to re-engineer it into something else in the areas of transport and storage.  Analyze the current bottlenecks, shortcomings and recognize areas that could be improvised to function differently and in many cases along the way - improved.  Once the source is released, I'll be explaining to anyone interested what's been changed, written from the ground up, questioned and what's been removed with the reasons behind it.  For example the fee reward system, the account system and quite a bit more.  As I said, this is going on more than a month in the making and that's just the point at which I was brought in with the agreement and promise of post-ico employment.  The 4K BTC sum isn't what's expected to be reached, but just what's made available.  You can buy 1, 1000, or 0.  A project of this magnitude that's actually legitimate has costs to not only create but to maintain, support, and grow.  The minimum set is what's been told to me to afford to keep everyone involved paid and the project continually developed.

There have been quite a few questions here along with doubts and my intention here is to hopefully bring some legitimacy to this project as it truly is worthy of positive attention, at least in my opinion.  As I've already stated, I don't get in bed with scammers or those with less-than-honorable intentions.  My personal salary from the sale wouldn't be given to me in a lump sum either regardless of the level of trust the rest of the collective or Jared have in me.  It requires a certain level of responsibility, experience and trust to be in the position Jared's in and if I hadn't known him for as long as I have now and worked with him I would be skeptical the same as those voicing their concerns are.  There have been quite a few companies, investors and developers in this space that have expressed a great amount of interest and with good reason. The ground work was almost all laid out when I came into this project, it was the implementation and delivery that was lacking and that's where I've been able to step in and offer my abilities.  I've introduced an experimental alternative to leveldb as was in conjunction to it as a possible replacement for a multitude of reasons as well.

Regarding the roadmap and features detailed there.  Some are already in development, a few in which I played the role of coding (encrypting the data on the chain for example).  They're included in the current list of features only because they've been thoroughly tested.  I never release anything as "done" or "included" without proper testing.  With that said, updates will come as features are tested and proven stable - not before.  Graphical roadmaps, elaborate images and graphs - unnecessary.  History has shown us time after time that a scammer can hire a designer, pay a nominal fee and rob us blind.  The intentions behind the simplistic layout were to be informative and forthcoming - not beautiful.

With all of this considered, the person in the position of holding responsibility for the financials is not only someone who has voluntarily given their time to support and nourish other communities, but also someone whose personal information is public and I as well have Jared's information even beyond what's disclosed in the CFC along with one hell of a lawyer that practices both in and outside of this space thanks to another reputable person involved in crypto.  Every bit of relevant information regarding his holding and dispersal of the funds is documented and legally binding.

Lastly, I've been accepting contract roles for the last several months since LTCGear went belly-up to maintain my role within the Neos community and in crypto in general.  I haven't missed a beat with regard to my role or support with Neos, even while coding for others.  I don't want to give the wrong impression, even with the clarity I've hopefully provided so I'll state again - I'm basically an employee whose future role depends on the response to this project.

I'd like to thank those who have read this lengthy post for your time and hopefully better understanding of the rationale behind a few of the uncertain details.  Now it's time for me to get back coding.

     Best regards,

syntaks

Impressive words! I was absolutely sure that this project is legit because of Stoner and some other signs. Now it's obvious he also hired skilled Devs. To be honest, it was one of my first questions to myself if he could have asked you because I would have if I were him... ;-)

Now it really looks good. Hope that many others will focus on facts and nobody will complain because of Neos. Hope it will be a win-win for both projects! 

To all the others: What Syntaks pointed out you can believe. There are no reasons not to trust Stoner, but if you don't trust Syntaks buy Paycoin. ;-) I don't know anybody in the wild west of Crypto who is that trustworthy as a person and even if I don't know anything about coding I know he is very(!) skilled and passioned.

Anonymous dev team with a stoner as their community manager wants people to give them ONE MILLION DOLLAR.

ONE FREAKING MILLION DOLLAR.

That Stoner is in front is a good sign. Who knows him knows that he is trustworthy. And it would be easy to start a non-ico-project, with an "thisisthename-Coin-Account", posting nice designed pictures, make some great promises, pump it up, cash out and leave. It wouldn't be a million but that would be an easy Scam they could repeat every second month like some others. There are several Coins that started and ended with that intention. I can't predict if the ICO turns out as a success and nobody can predict a success for any project in longterm. But I'm sure that it's not a scam. It's more that I believe to see the attempt to start a really professional project with money backing, but with too less focus on "how to represent it" to raise/generate trust.

And kind of funny is: If this would be a Scam they would've focused on that. With the intention to steal that much money they could have prepared false stories about not-existing Devs.. pictures, Facebook-Accounts, a great story around it and so on. They would control the communication with sockpuppets that nobody could figure out what's true and what's a lie. And if you look at Bittrex... all the concerns in this Thread worked. It's not much buying there today. But: If this would be a Scam they would let it seem as if there would be buying. They would buy themselves. They would do anything to make it look great and wanted and all what gives confidence to naive Investors.

My current conclusion is: There are Nerds behind this project. Probably surprised about the negative Feedback and until today focused on tech instead of psychology. But market is 99% psychology and I don't know anything about coding but psychology is also very algorithmic and kind of predictable, not individual but collective. They did not think through that I believe.

And just to prevent accusations I could be a sockpuppet... If I would be part of that I would have focused on what I tried to describe. Because I believe, even the absolutely reputable projects need to be controlled in mostly any aspects in the beginning. They need to be manipulative in some ways to have a good start. And that includes communication and presentation and even the market. And because there seems to be not much control about these aspects... and because of Stoner as the public guy, I don't believe that this is a Scam.
well you go and buy them who cares if scam or not 4000btc but they will settle for 800btc piss off
if you put your money to this project then expect no returns Wink Wink
you must think we are all daft as a brush Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

STAY AWAY TO EXPENSIVE YOU WILL SEE NO RETURNS
DO YOU WANT ANOTHER SYSCOIN OUT COME THEN BUY IF YOU DO

Impossible for me to figure out if you have understood what I tried to point out. In short: The red flags others believe to see can be red flags or not. Anon-Devs and the ICO... that are mainly the two points that raises concerns. And I don't say it's wrong to think about that. But in my eyes it's too superficial to focus only on that. Because there are hundreds of Scams without ICO and several Scams with known persons. Under the line it's not enough to be sure about it and call it Scam and not enough for me to make a decision about an Investment. Until now I did not buy because there is enough time to wait and watch.

And I wait and watch because I try to figure out if this can be a success or not. If it's a scam or not I'm sure that it's not. All the manipulative strategies of Scams are missing. And there are several strategies to scam without an ICO... that's one of the last points I consider to draw conclusions out of it. If a project is professional an ICO is good. If a project is a scam or just another "sand-on-the-beach-project" every satoshi is too much. For me the question is mostly if they are able to do it.
