There was some discussion recently about Litecoin having a "dark pool" with about 55% of the network mining power. Coblee is aware of it and seems to be hiding the fact this imminent 51% threat exists to Litecoin.

It is possible this dark pool already done multiple 51% attacks as they seem to be continually stopping their mining and "doing something else for an hour or so" before resuming. Hopefully someone is monitoring the reorgs which have been occurring and determining if anyone is actually losing Bitcoins on the exchanges.

Haha yeah. It's funny when you retell the story in your head you make it out like you're some civil person when in reality you were trolling and being offensive. Move on with it, we don't want people like you active on that forum because you don't know how to act with other people. You're offensive.

You haven't been banned flippro, you were just removed as a moderator. I think people expect a certain behaviour when you have a higher standing in the community and you failed to meet those standards. So now you're just a normal user and people won't hold you high in SolidCoin terms anymore, allowing you the freedom to speak your mind without that pressure. Better for all involved isn't it?

Yeah that's the rough cost when taking into account all costs, energy, hardware, labor. It costs about 15c to produce a SolidCoin when you pay 10c per kilowatt hour. Upto 30c depending upon energy costs. This is somewhat dependent upon the difficulty modifier also, the greater it is from 0 the more accurate it is.

Your whole computer uses only 80w to produce 180KH/s? I think you are off by at least 2, likely 3 with those numbers

Energy isn't the only cost in producing SC either, hardware, labor, etc.

Wait what... you expect these guys to even know how Bitcoin works? Let alone SolidCoin which is even more complicated? Come on, too much credit

That's a bit like saying it's voluntary to update to a new SolidCoin version to get past a checkpoint. If someone cannot reliably send a transaction over the network I would say you are forcing them to update to use pretty much the main feature of a p2p cryptocurrency, sending money. A client which joins the network using an older version, can only connect to 8 other clients. If all of those clients have new rules for relaying transactions it's quite possible that new client will be unable to send some transactions out.

Again don't really know what you are trying to imply there, is there some big secret conspiracy I should be aware of I'm not?

Of course it's possible for you or anyone to have 800,000 SolidCoins. There is 2.6 million minted, and 800,000 is less than 2.6 million.

The largest holder I know of I talk with regularly so again I'm not sure what you're trying to say. You always try to speak in these "sly ways" trying to imply these big secret things are going on in your world, like you're a spy of mystery or something. Is your life that dull you need to invent this sort of stuff?


Haha, all source code is turned over, the only thing which isn't are the private keys to the CPF and some of the trusted accounts.

Unfortunately none of those people you mention (except sp0tter, which I have no idea why you threw that name in there) want to take my "Role" or if they did, they don't have the time for it. But if you want you can keep field testing viable replacements for me if you want. Like I said from the start of SC2, I'm not going to be "Leading" forever, it's not something I want to do and it shouldn't be done by just one person. It's just the way it is right now.

I still don't know what harm can be done to you by showing you have 800,000 SolidCoins like you have claimed though, if anything it would give you a greater say in SolidCoin things don't you think? People would actually say, "hey, bitcoinexpress isn't lying about having SolidCoins like everyone thought" Yet you don't want to prove it and everyone keeps thinking you are a liar, quite odd really.

Did you know I have 3 million bitcoins?

Of course any excuse can be invented for why he doesn't need to "Show the SC". Anything to cover the truth which is he doesn't have them. You don't think he could upset more people by showing he has as much as he says, or getting his "coins taken off him" by the evil mastermind (ie me) ? Seriously?

But like I said, any attacker will soon need over 12 million (up from the current 1.2 million) to do anything malicious (only 2.6 million minted currently), and they will also need half of the mining power. Good luck to them.


Anyone can do a Bitcoinexpress if they want.

"I have 6 million Bitcoins I will put them in escrow, if you do <something impossible> you can have them"
"I know important people"
"I control google search engine results"
"You seriously don't know how powerful I am"
"I just PMd your friends on facebook, you got doxed bro"
"I'm so important I created this alter ego called Lanie Grace to troll fans of an unpopular TV series called Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles"
"I know SEO, it's like Karate for the internet"

What? You don't believe me? Booooo why not?

Firstly they are not "my people", we are all the same people working towards a common goal. There is a secession plan in place already for me. Unfortunately I don't have unlimited time to devote to every project that I'm interested in and I've already given 5 months of my life to SolidCoin.

I do know the largest SolidCoin holder, unfortunately it isn't you. Or I guess it could be you, provided you just move what you have to show us how rich you are.

But I'm guessing you never actually want to prove you are wealthy in SolidCoin, just imply it for some sort of social engineering reason. "OooOoo watchout or the spooky Bitcoinexpress will crash the market with his fake million coins OoOooo" .

Provided you run your trusted node in the interests of the chain you can take a place producing those blocks once you get a million coins, like anyone else can. However if you're implying you want to be malicious it's actually going to take you even longer to get the ~12 million coins needed to do that, and 50% of the network power. There is a reason people are investing in SolidCoin over other p2p currencies, it's actually much more secure. And as unlikely as it is that you do have 800000 coins, there is a reason you would have that if you're a smart businessman, you know what will be the leading online currency going forward.

I don't see anything wrong with people criticizing me on things I've done, is that really a big deal to be criticized? Hopefully any reasonable person takes on whatever people are criticizing if it's worthwhile and grow from it. Other times the person criticizing isn't doing it from the most educated position and will grow themselves.

As much as I'd like to call you out on your "I have 800000 solidcoins" both you and I know I don't have 2 million SolidCoins to put in escrow. So how would it be done exactly? You expect me to have 80% of all SolidCoins created? Wouldn't that mean you don't have 800000 SolidCoins if that was the case? That's a big LOL up there with your "I'm going to kill SolidCoin off google" post. There's at least 50 people that have more SolidCoins than I do.

How about you just move the coins and show us, nothing is going to happen to your coins if you do have them, print this post if you're worried about it. Anyone that has legitimate coins will have no fears in SolidCoin, even if I or some other developer doesn't like you. It's a part of our constitution.

You could also ignore these transactions (under the min amount) when checking blocks for wallet transactions. It will help improve the general performance of the wallet going forward too.

So BitcoinExpress tells people he has 800,000 SolidCoins, that he had 400 AWS instances mining at SolidCoin 2 start and was 51% attacking it (before he knew the trusted node mechanism), that he has 2 million BTC, that he's a woman, that he can control google search engine results, that he's a programmer (but now he isn't anymore), that he knows Bill Gates, knew Steve Jobs and that he's a millionaire.

At what point does any reasonable person start to realize this guy likes to tell a fib or two?

Check out :- http://www.solidtools.net/

It has all the account info, how many transactions have gone into and from the CPF, and a variety of other information relating to your own SolidCoin addresses, created by one of many SolidCoin supporters. Everyone can see the trust accounts haven't been spent because the blockchain tells you, the code tells you how it can operate. It's not a secret, the source code is available for all to read and many already have.

Except by the time they see SolidCoin as a threat the people with the most money will be people who share the values of people like you and myself. There is only a limited amount of coins in existence and if they are owned by people with the right values then there is nothing a government can do.

Your argument that it makes it less secure than bitcoin is pretty stupid though. You do realize you need both MINING and MONEY to attack SolidCoin. In Bitcoin you only need mining. In essence to attack SolidCoin you need a lot more investment and if it goes as expected people with the right values will have the most "money" in the system. We are starting from scratch here, Rothschild isn't given SolidCoins from birth, nor are the Rockafellas. If you want to make a difference to that shit then you need to start helping instead of taking your current position.

Well it depends what you mean by central authority. As the developer of a new product, I, using my experience and those of others implemented *ideas*. This of course makes most of the protocol, etc, centralized ideas. Just like satoshis first version was centralized with his magic values and protocol.

I designed SolidCoin v2.0 so that it could protect itself against government threats, the highest level of attacks we may face if very successful. To me there is no point in doing something if you don't have answers for problems. You don't really need to trust me to have your SolidCoins secure, that is the thing. If you think the network and protocol runs through a central authority you are probably misguided from ill informed people here.

Perhaps if people realized my values are anti system and anti bank they will realize why I made SolidCoin. If you want to live in lala land thinking Bitcoin is "the answer" to the banks and system then there isn't much I can do besides to continue to educate people. If you really want to bring an end to this shit you need real answers and real protection against the threats these types of currencies will face. Anyone who has been running Bitcoin over the last month can surely start to see cracks appearing in it with its 2 hour blocks and slow network. Bitcoin is no threat to banks or governments, they can own it at any moment they want.

Anyone using the SolidCoin client immediately notices the difference in performance and speed, and they can rest at night knowing their coins won't disappear or that someone will rewrite history and kill a chain by taking all the wealth from the system.

Yes the entire network would halt until the code was fixed.

Just like how in Bitcoin the same would happen if difficulty was increased to 100 million by the government.

I said the trust accounts could in the future be refilled if code was added to support it. Currently those trust accounts cannot be moved in ANY way, including collecting donations to themselves. So it would be impossible _currently_ to do such a thing with them. They are really locked down.


This is incorrect because I don't run all the trust nodes. All decisions need to be agreed upon by those holders or they could decide not to support the changes and chaos would ensue. These 10 trust accounts are a short term measure to get us into the real millionaire realm, it's not a permanent thing by any mean which is why they are designed to die.


No, they need a majority of trust money if they want to force decisions on the network. Think of SolidCoin as two forces fighting, both mining and money, you need both to attack the network which is why it's so secure. Without mining power the trust nodes really have nothing and vice versa.

Just as trust nodes can not accept certain blocks non trust nodes don't have to accept trust node blocks if they don't meet criteria of their choosing. You are really simplifying things if you don't realize you need both forces working together, those with the money and those with the mining power.

Again if you could read C++ you would see that isn't the case. Go get an education before pretending to know things.

What are you basing that on? That they can be refilled? If you read the source you would see they currently cannot be refilled.

Since you refuse to educate yourself I assume you are posting because you're a troll. Yeah?


People can choose to invest themselves with a million SC and become a trust node. No one is stopping them. So they also have a choice. Not sure of your point, you fail to understand some basic SolidCoin principles.

No, you're confusing accounts for nodes. The same accounts can be run on many nodes.

Let me ask you a question, was Bitcoin centralized when it was only 10 people running it? Is Bitcoin centralized now that 3 cop pools control 80% of the network?

If you think having trust nodes is centralization then I can argue that having mining clients is also centralization. Non mining clients are forced to accept what the mining clients tell them. Scary isn't it.

The fact is the network in SolidCoin is not centralized at all. It's peer to peer, no other node needs to know who is signing trust blocks, they appear on the network and they accept them, just like non mining bitcoin clients accept mining blocks. There is zero difference.

You can argue however that the CPF is 5% centralization, and I agree with that. There is a current 5% economic centralization in SolidCoin. If you want to state facts, then do so, you really need to stop with your nonsense.
