It turned out I forgot to remove the dust filter.

Not joking. There are 3 places in the worldcoin code that reduce "dust" and it stops small transactions. lol

Still pushed to tomorrow night?

Yea, I don't think a full 24 hours tho. I will set the timer, just check it in a few mins.

Looks like I fixed it already. I need to change a few other things back but its working and sending tx's. lol

POSTPONED 42 HOURS

P.S. My activity 42 now)

I wont need 42 hours. If it comes down to it I will rebuild it again. Not like I havn't done it a few times already.

POSTPONED 24 HOURS

I would like to apologize but when I re-forked worldcoin and started over I missed one of my changes and its not allowing transactions to be sent. -.-
I will pour over my old version and new version and see what I missed. Check back tomorrow.

Again, I'm sorry for the delay.

Seriously? Isn't that why there is a testnet? Sad

Anyhow; another delay won't hurt...

I had it working just fine on the original version but when I went to change the Port it got all screwy so I started over. I just missed one of the changes I made. It shouldn't be too hard to find and This will allow more testing.

Does your coin blend ?

If you load the wallet on your laptop, then yes, it will blend.

Hey DEV of this coin,

Add some more units to the qt instead of the normal m42 u42, etc. look up the next ones and add them to the qt, its not hard Smiley

I will look into it. It wont be the initial release since that is in like 2 hours. But I will put out a new Qt soon with lower denominations.

One question for the OP. Will the dock icon for the qt be unique to 42 coin or will it look suspiciously like litecoin?

Nope, looks like 42. lol

Blocktime is to short, will result in many orphaned blocks (-> double spend attacks incoming, when coin has value).

42 seconds is just to short for P2P-network.

Don't ignore this OP. (If you want to create a currency that stays around and not P&D-shit.)

Worldcoin does just fine at 15 seconds.

I forked worldcoin and increased it to 42 seconds and did some other modifications. I also added in quite a few checkpoints.

I've done my homework. I believe if I keep updating the checkpoints periodically we will avoid any nastiness that you talk about.

Less than 4 hours to go.

374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scrypt Asics. Are you planning your exit strategy from GPU mining? on: January 07, 2014, 10:08:07 AM

We have been down this road with bitcoin asics. History is repeating itself except there isn't a big GPU only coin to fall back to when all the scrypt coins are not profitable to mine with GPUs anymore.


But because there isn't a big GPU only coin to fall back on maybe people will start creating new ones. It didn't happen with SHA asics because there was no need, scrypt already existed. But as you said, there is no other GPU coin currently so one will need to be created.
everyone must have missed my post.  Memorycoin which was designed to be gpu resistant failed at it, GPUs are currently more profitable on that than any scrypt coin. 

I'm mining it now, I had no idea it was so profitable. I don't see that lasting very long as word gets out. lol

If anyone has any suggestions while I'm under the hood now is the time to let me know. lol
What if the wallet/daemon accepted only one solved block per connection per 120 seconds or so? Or would that make operating a pool impossible.. was just thinking it might make big farms hoarding all the blocks in the beginning a bit more difficult. Maybe the limitation could be operational only during the first lets say 2000 blocks and after that pools would work just fine?

I think its possible but not in this release.

Also, yea it would be a bit of a problem for pools. I would have to put out 2 different wallets one for solo mining and one for the pools to use, and then if one of the pools leaked the source, well there goes the neighborhood. lol

Its a good thought, it might be a good idea to put in a future coin that only allows solo mining. The only other problem is that someone could just remove the restrictions in the source and mine freely.

LOL @ OP having an short int overflow for a port number

This coin is undefined behavior

You might be able to define me as undefined behavior. lol

Its the nutjobs that make real progress. The ones crazy enough to do things that other sane individuals won't do.

Nikola Tesla was absolutely nutters compared to anybody at that time but he was 100 years ahead of everyone else technology wise.

Few questions:

1. Is there going to be a premine? If so, please add that info to the front page so people can accuse you of hiding it.

2. Are you planning on launching with a pool? Personally, I prefer no pools at launch to allow people some solomining and to prevent forks.

3. Have you decided to keep the first 240 blocks as 0 reward or 0.000001  ?

Thanks

Sorry I took so long, I've been busy working on 42 and the new site.

1. Is there going to be a premine? If so, please add that info to the front page so people can accuse you of hiding it.
I have not decided yet. I have been taking everyone's opinion's in this thread into consideration. If I do put in a premine block it will be under 1%. It is not for my personal gain. I will use it to promote 42 by hosting giveaways and contests. I'm also working on a faucet that I will code from scratch in python. Smiley

2. Are you planning on launching with a pool? Personally, I prefer no pools at launch to allow people some solomining and to prevent forks.
I have been contacted by 2 pool owners, I will give one of them the chance to be the first pool. The first one to contact me tomorrow wins that spot. If I premine any, they will also get a bounty for being the first pool Smiley I would insist on just solo mining to begin with but I don't want to leave anyone with low hash power out of the early mining profits.

3. Have you decided to keep the first 240 blocks as 0 reward or 0.000001  ?
It will be 0.000001 so miners can be sure they have everything set up correctly before the gravy blocks show up.

So back on track. Currently generating the main net genesis block which will take upward of a half hour or longer. Once that is done its complete. (Again)  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I was still seeing syncing issues so I started over. lol

I went back to the worldcoin source and made the same modifications and am creating a new genesis block.

This should fix any and all issues.

I tend to start over alot on projects because they are not perfect. :p

My knowlege about this is very poor Undecided , but it seems that starting new blockchain should help.

It did. I just deleted the old one and started over.
