So what Local HTTP Server exackly means for the coin? What does this do? Thanks.
Also people are asking for a MAC wallet
1. Local HTTP server means that now you can setup this server and Datacoin daemon on one server, and then you can get TX data from this server as HTTP requests\responses. You won't need to request server via RPC, but via simple HTTP GET request. It will make app development much easier, and yes, this server works with Datacoin envelope which is designed to support Big Files in near future 2. I have at least 2 people who promised to work at Mac wallet. But please understand, I don't want to hurry just now, during holidays. I cannot come to devs and say 'hey guys, please hold over with your holidays, compile Mac wallet for us'

Great work! I've sent you some DTC as a tip. Let's wait for feedbacks from the community!
|
|

I really like DTC, and Im sure it has muuuuuuuuuch more value than other coins. I have 12 servers mining currently The idea of reducing transaction fee should be implemented IMO, would givethe coin much more liquidity and increase the traffic for sure. Wait until end of holidays - many updates will come

force everyone to use datacoin instead of the dollar, then knock everyone out who supports litecoin and bitcoin. worth a try DGgoaP42kDoTQcZAZRgMqdZBfajUrcYcYV you seriously gave that guy free DTC?! I dont like you anymore :P:P hey, he made me smile, and I'm in a very good mood today

Set up a Datacoin faucet. While faucets do not add much to the ecosystem, they are good at attracting new users. The faucet could be ran by donations from people who want to support Datacoin and its concept. I hope this coin will succeed, as it actually has a purpose (and so does its proof-of-work system, too!).
We're doing giveaways just now, but after we finish with them, we'll start faucet Thought about recent giveaways and the way Datacoin is going...
Cryptocoins generally lack any inner value, today their main purpose is speculation. Easy to see especially with many altcoins experiencing pump and dump schemes. Lots of people buy them hoping for bitcoin-like exponential growth. Datacoin is one of very few different. From initial thread:
Datacoin is intended to be reliable censorship-free data storage and a currency to pay for this storage. Money transfer isn't the first purpose of Datacoin.
Data storage is the inner purpose of DTC, giving Datacoin its inner value. BUT its inner value does not have to be equal to its price. While I appreciate giveaway and cryptsy “fight”, I think I see you are going every-other-coin-way here. I think you should not promote Datacoin in first place. You should focus all your efforts at Datacoin uses, services, etc. Build a user base around them. Make Datacoin not a target, but *just* a tool for people. That would reinforce its inertial value by making the coin itself simply useful. You should really make this coin a tool first and a coin second.
And – sorry to say that – I think that going the “Dogecoin-way” ), with giveaways, twitter, cryptsy and buzz, while may seem desirable on a short time frame, on a long way run may destroy the uniqueness if DTC would became too successful this way. With tool-first approach DTC price would depend on its usefulness and usefulness of all DTC-related ecosystem. DTC price cannot be too high. Don't get me wrong, theres still space to grow here, but it would be quite bound to a data storage function, and here price cannot rise above sanity levels. Additionally, function-bound price could be quite stable. Just these orders of magnitude jumps that would make all this speculation crowd happy would render Datacoin unusable, practically depleting it of its inner value.
Unless we imagine a dystopian future, where people are willing to pay many thousands of dollars for every byte of decentralized redundant censorship-free storage...
I know all of that, but we need to attract as many developers as we can. When we started twitter buzz and giveaways, number of mails from 3rd parties developers increased a lot! So, of course, we can do nothing like promo and do everything ourselves, but it will be so slow. And yes, miners are interested to sell their coins, but many of them don't want to go to bter. If we are not listening to miners, coin will be vulnerable to attacks and fail. it is preferable to change the logo, which represent a currency, and also email contact address , it's not professional , gmail !
what's wrong with logo? And yes, forgot to mention that our mail is now support@datacoin.info (it redirects messages to gmail, but nobody cares ) hey gentleman give some coin to the lady
hahaha, are you the first lady in Datacoin? Make us smile, take a photo of yourself with paper with words on it: "Best regards to Datacoin team!" Nothing vulgar, just ordinary photo force everyone to use datacoin instead of the dollar, then knock everyone out who supports litecoin and bitcoin. worth a try you're joking of course Coins sent to everyone above this thread (except mahieddine - no address and no photo )

hey guys, sorry for big delays, I missed recent answers in this thread somehow. I'll go through the thread and answer \ send coins soon
|
|
|
more DTC will come from me soon for more and more followers and interested people Stay tuned - it is only preparations, really big things will come after holidays!
|
|
|
bumping this thread as a reminder for those who wants to spread FUD about datacoin

Hey, I'm 99% sure that he's sleeping don't worry and wait for some time.

I made small Linux utility for primeminer&pooled mining, check my github: https://github.com/arkhebuz/datawatchUseful when you experience crashes or long lasting connection problems on a box operating autonomously (i. e. PC during the night or a VPS). Readme file on a github tells the rest. Don't know if it fits any bounty but check this out. please remind me tomorrow about that - now I'm too sleepy

Hey guys, We're doing great work together! Let's continue it, let's get more and more people involved in Datacoin! I'm the person who donates money for @ThisWeeksCoin, and I still want to donate hundreds (and possible thousands) Datacoins for spreading words about it. Development is active (though there are holidays), you'll see many updates both for Datacoin core and 3rd-party services. - You can look into https://github.com/foo1inge/ and see fresh updates (Local HTTP server for comfortable data management added).
- There will be updates for chainbrowser.com and (possibly) krypte.net soon
- I'm in conversation with developers working with some new 3rd party apps - comfortable data storages, p2pools, wallets, and some innovative things that I shouldn't reveal just now
- Many promotions are being prepared for launch after holidays

I send now 1 DTC to someone and the fee was more than 0.05. Actually 0.06695476 . Why is that happening? Not that i care about the difference but i would like to learn how it works.
No idea why, I've just sent you 1 DTC, and fee was 0.05 as usual

if i have the file on my pc, i dont need datacoin to store it.
i mean about permanent storage without any responsibility from me, thats why i would pay in the first place.
All storage (and more - all electronic or financial) systems can be asked this question. What if Dropbox closes suddenly, and all your files stored in paid storage will no still been stored there? What if your bank becomes bankrupt? Really, how can you get _real_ guarantees from anyone in the Internet? If you write down all your data, put it into sealed chest and bury it... maybe you'll get your data in safe place (but what happens in case of earthquake?)

Datacoin will get a lot of improvements and promotions after New Year.

Meanwhile DTC/BTC is rapidly going down, hit 0.00066, from 0.001 a few weeks ago. More miners -> less price, while stupid useless DOGE are on tons of exhanges and grows like crazy... lol
I noticed that and commented several times - Datacoin needs some thinking. I saw very many DOGEs miners in Ypool chat - most of them don't understand what they are doing, many of them never heard even about Bitcoin. They see 'funny picture' and several steps instruction, bah! they're mining, they're earning some quick buck! And Datacoin needs some reading to understand its concept - it's 'too difficult', especially for those who wants quick buck. P. S. DOGE is like pop music: it's much easier to be understood by masses. Datacoin is like blues\jazz\art rock, for example.

bump bump! There is a huge disproportion between xpool and gpool, it will be better for some miners to go to Xpool while it is so small. Remember: xpool's fee is 1%

I have no problem with using RIpple, I would have fired up gateways for many coins and assets myself when the rippled source code was released were it not that I was warned/advised that the gateway code that was released was not fit/intended for real use.
-MarkM-
can you explain this 'code not fit/intended for real use'? I'm very new to Ripple, so maybe you should discuss that with Jl77. The example they gave me was that it has no recovery process whereby if you lost power (a fuse blows, your host decides to reboot your machine, or whatever) it would on reboot know exactly what parts of which operations had completed and what parts still needed doing. So I guess maybe, no "transactions with rollback" type functionality akin to what the kinds of databases demanded for financial applications have? As just one example. The general idea was that the code is merely a sketchy sketch of the very basic purely ripple-related aspects of what a real gateway would need to do, but lacking all the real stuff a real gateway would, regardless of ripple, need to do in order to be a secure and robust financial application able to recover from unexpected failures in the midst of uncompleted database operations, resist all the various CSS and cross-site and injection type attacks financial sites attract and so on and so on and so on. Basically "if you had a real secure stable robust gateway platform, here is a quick sketch of the kind of code you'd need to add to it to make it able to work with ripple" or something like that. A far cry from being an actual real-use gateway. -MarkM- Got it, thanks. Just now crypto trading seems to be in trouble: major exchanges have problems with engines or withdrawals\deposits, and small exchanges that seem to be stable (while they're small) have very little volumes. So Ripple doesn't look bad alternative even with this problem described by you. You can see how many money do users lose on Cryptsy, and it seems to me (just guessing) that Ripple will not cause so much problems for end users. Correct me if I'm wrong.
