I cant build wallet from: https://github.com/Greg-Griffith/SuperCoin
os ubuntu server 14.04x64

make -j 4 -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=- DEBUGFLAGS=""
...
walletdb.cpp:(.text+0x2322): undefined reference to `boost::filesystem::detail::copy_file(boost::filesystem::path const&, boost::filesystem::path const&, boost::filesystem::copy_option, boost::system::error_code*)'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [SuperCoind] Error 1

any ideas?

in walletdb.cpp; put // in front of the copy_file line, its only to do with backing up wallet - then compile again.

The miners are in china because china has the best possible electricity bill because they have the best position in the planet to become miners, so it's understandable that most of the mining happens there. Instead of complaining about chinese centralization, what we should do is find ways to compete against them. If I was rich I would already be doing it.

Literally has nothing to do with electricity.
All the chips/pcb's are manufactured there, so they take advantage of this fact and keep it all 'in house'.

Additionally, since the pipe to the outside world is limited by the GFC (Great Firewall of China), all of the pools run dead-miners on each others stratum servers; selfish mining on each others headers, ignoring transactions etc.

I've personally watched F2Pool find three blocks in a row, without announcing the found blocks to the world (at the time this was 75BTC worth) - and lose all three because another pool chose to announce a found block in a legitimate matter. I might add two of the blocks contained no transactions - literally $30,000 USD straight into the pockets of the pool owner.

This happened during the peak of the 'blocksize debate'.. while people were bitching about blocksizes, the pool owners were sitting pretty.

Why should anyone here even talk to you about supercoin , you claim has been dead for over a year.

Your Grasp of Reality seems confused at best,
the fact you can't tell the difference between a dead or live coin network , is kind of showcasing your personal issues.  Wink


 Cool

Said the man who has decided to ignore me... He however tried to mock me... funny.

Nobody was talking about coin network, but coin distribution and usability...and about personal issues, I won't talk about yours with anybody who is not going smoothly with your point of view. You sure have them.

Whatever I think or say, Griffith is respectable dev. And it looks Barry is trying to be fair. Why wouldn't they? To me, to anybody...
And also, you are not the only one here.

Good luck to you too. (No irony in this)


I'm not sure why everyone seems to be unsure or abandoning ship in terms of SuperCoin (either current or future).
No exchanges/listing on Coinmarketcap is no reason to worry (literally.. at all, unless you want to cash out).
I've both a permanent Supercoin node at my place, as well as an external one that I intend to use for the chainswap; I may keep it running for as long as I can.

I'm currently investigating a very awesome possibility in terms of upgrading the codebase.

If you didn't know (or not a programmer type); there was a large rewrite of both the Bitcoin/RPC engine between versions 0.8 and 0.9 of the Bitcoin codebase (which naturally most altcoins are derived from; most of them being pre-0.8.6). The earlier codebase started to strain when supporting large wallets or large blockchains, and performance from both UI and RPC suffered as a result. This prompted a rewrite, allowing post 0.9 clones to operate very efficiently regardless of the constraints (wallet/blockchain size) they were placed under.

Someone earlier mentioned that all these changes (including the chainswap) will mean that this isn't really Supercoin anymore.
It will be like Supercoin's older brother has stepped into place; the brother who taught Supercoin how to swagger.

To those who feel it necessary to leave, it is up to you; no harm done.
To those who want to hang around but are a bit nervous, just remember.. as long as there are nodes around and you've got your wallet safe and sound; your investment has not gone anywhere.
To those who have been patiently waiting, cheers guys; grab a beer, this is a learning experience as well as a good ride.

i'm a bit lost for words,
i'm mining 66coin, sending to cryptopia.. and it appears in my balance?
my client shows the same blockcount as cryptopia, my transactions are valid and balance is showing correctly.



turn your computer off bud, go read up on how cryptocurrency works, come back here and try again  Grin
maybe lose the attitude as well?

you are on a forked chain.
385  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][66] ★ Coin 66 ★ on: September 14, 2016, 08:59:30 PM
yes a problem does exist, with your copy of the 66coin blockchain.

goto start > run > %appdata%
find 66coin
move your wallet.dat out of this folder
delete the rest of the contents of this folder
restart 66coin (after dropping your wallet.dat back into the folder)
386  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][66] ★ Coin 66 ★ on: September 14, 2016, 07:34:44 PM


there is no issue, other than the fact noone is mining 66coin..

I can't sync wallet   Sad
Wallet stuck at 930144 blocks!

Cryptopia's wallet stuck at 950430 blocks. It's impossible to send or receive 66 coins to/from Cryptopia...

Seems that our little friend mrflow27 completely broke 66 coin blockchain and disappeared!  Angry

i'm currently at 950,431..

950500..
Can you transfer any 66 coins to Cryptopia?

yep, working correctly.. however ive stopped moving the chain

Supercoin Markets...

No Team, no investors...

Nobody trading...

And yet, those with small bags or those who are dissapointed are trouble. Really?

Is it dead? IMHO - YES. Really - not yet. Invisible to crypto communities - absolutely.

So, what are you going to do?


shhh..
391  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Incentivizing Bitcoin Nodes on: September 11, 2016, 12:07:13 PM
I believe the best solution is: Educate people about the need for nodes. Give them a easy SD card image LINUX system for Raspberry PI with pre-installed and clean Bitcoin client.
Make them run a 24/7 raspberry PI node - very cheap to buy and run. Will be run on altruism and self-preservation (for people who have stake on the BTC network - own BTCs)

That's it!

Cheers,
Sky

that will leave them with a sort of 'blackbox' knowledge as to what is actually going on.
to be fair, after linux is installed, bitcoind can be up and running/syncing within 7-10 typed lines.

people these days seem to want their cryptocurrency with the least technical involvement; but have the most to say.
392  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Incentivizing Bitcoin Nodes on: September 10, 2016, 01:26:24 PM
you forgot the one reason to run a node,  the fact that you hold bitcoin and if there are not enough nodes which is bad for bitcoin then that is bad for the bitcoin price which hurts the average user who holds..... i run a full node and it is not all that expensive and in years to come it will be even less so..... moores law comes into play here also

moores law has been broken for years bro..

all the big players (bitcoin pools) have a large set of nodes, both to keep the bitcoin network alive and also so they can apply their standard sneaky tricks whilst mining blocks (mining ahead as a group or singular, flatout spv mining, ignoring tx with transaction fees below 0.000xx etc).

what hardware you using for a full node?

It appears my sarcasm wasn't obvious, this guy is not Satoshi because its written like a typical hoaxer idiot; not to mention the writer doesn't understand a great deal about programming/networking.

Quote
I want to create a new distributed peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that is more efficient and sustainable than Bitcoin. Using a PoQN (Proof of Qualified Node) that requires each miner to run and maintain a qualified node before being allowed to mine.

A "qualified node" is essentially an online server with a FQDN that must be running the blockchain checkpoints within its operational protocols. Each qualified node must run its own "blockchain explorer" and have visibility online to a FQDN. The code should be checked against sha-512 encryption checkpoints for conformity to preset network conditions.

He has just described a centralized node system.
Why would Satoshi so eagerly swap to a centralized setup, when the entire beauty of his creation was the fact the nodes didn't need to know each other beforehand?

A FQDN (fully qualified domain name) is not required for this to work; 'visibility online to a FQDN' demonstrates he has basic issues understanding what DNS is and how it operates.

Quote

What checkpoints? Code isn't checked against checkpoints, blocks are..
Satoshi would have written SHA512 (as it's written).

Quote
Each qualified node will have full mining rights, and each node operator will be able to setup their own online storefront that represents the IP of the qualified node.

Oh dear.. the end part is the topper, a storefront representing an IP address? But what about the FQDN?
This entire thing is written like a early 2014 DogeCoin enthusiast, with a sheet of buzzwords and the literary skills of an eleven year old.

Move along folks.
395  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Your friend just know about Bitcoin and said he just invested into cloud mining. on: September 07, 2016, 01:22:13 PM
Let's one of your friend say he/she (for simple reference, I will just use 'he' throughout the thread) just know about Bitcoin. And he purchased some Bitcoin and invested some of it to cloud mining site. What will you say to him? Would it be nice for you to tell him to stop? Or let him learn online scam the hard way?
this will be a bad thing for between him and bitcoin. lots of people are afraid with using bitcoin just because their first experience with bitcoin wasn't that much good (they almost got scammed or earned very less from faucets) and then they prefer to left bitcoin.
BTW. I will warn my friend and try to convince him that the whole bitcoin is not like that. so just leave cloudmining but don't leave bitcoin.

people will always believe a flashy sales pitch/schpiel.
i've never heard anyone actually stop and ask how cloud mining works; yet people seem too happy to hand over the dough.
all cloud mining consists of is a bunch of rented hashpower (or a small hashing farm) set to mine literally at the will of its owner.

if the owner makes a decent profit, he might pass it on; but there are no honest crooks in cryptocurrency, so you'd be lucky to get back what you put in. why people don't take the 1-2 weeks to learn how to setup a basic stratum against a bunch of coin daemon is literally beyond me, there is no shortage in the way of guides/howto files on the internet.

live and let live, the saying goes.
a fool and his money are easily parted.
396  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is it possible to create such a wallet? on: September 06, 2016, 12:00:54 PM
From what I understand, coinomi, while it is a cool app and allows a good number of coins, contacts their servers to do some work.
This means the user has to trust them they don't get personal information for their use/gains.

And coinomi doesn't cover all the main coins. It seems to cover only what's compatible with bitcoin wallet.
I've seen, for example, no Cryptonote coin. At least XMR, XDN, BBR, BXC.

I wish to see more types of coins added, but it's an interesting project at this point too.


you know you can add them yourself without much hassle?
397  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin IS basically DESTROYED on: September 06, 2016, 02:24:53 AM
Bitcoin is basically destroyed now with 70% of the mining controlled by China, soon to be 98+%, and with Blockstream implementing their SegWit soft fork Trojan Horse so as Matonis admits can end up increasing the 21 million coins limit.

The entire ecosystem is headed for a clusterfuck.

I honestly believe this is the truth.  What is there to add ?

~CfA~


UPDATE: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1465136.msg14789764#msg14789764

They 21 million bitcoin is not a good option because afte reaching 21 million limit its price will go very very high and new user will quit using it and by such bitcoin wotld would get destroyed.

The limit is 21 million already.. idiot
398  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin IS basically DESTROYED on: September 06, 2016, 02:15:44 AM
its a misleading thread title at least

i was expecting a hack or something similar

maybe a network weakness, but saying

that nodes/hashrate being located in a certain geographic

area makes a Crypto destroyed to me

seems like a FUD thread at best

he needs to go back to yr 10 physics

the shortest distance between to points is a straight line

where is the majority of mining equipment manufactured? china.
after the first 5-6 rounds of mining equipment were released and sold, who decided that hanging onto their own mining exports for much longer and selling for higher prices - as well as monopolizing sha256 power essentially forever? china.
where are antpool, btccpool, f2pool, bw's nodes located? china.
of course there are nodes outside of china, but due to the gfc and its echo-like delay qualities - do you think block propagation is done fairly outside of china? no.

where will you find the highest density of idiots per metre, sadly bitcointalk forums.
399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin IS basically DESTROYED on: September 06, 2016, 02:03:13 AM

I recieved this from someone claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto:

If this is real, then he is already working on a new cryptocurency  to address this issue:
*************************************************************************************************
To: Bitcoin Developers Everywhere

Constructive Imagination is everything when it comes to cross-platform integration of data services. You will rarely ever see a world-class architect doing drywall work at the construction site where his concept will be erected; nor will you ever see him floating the cement foundation after it has been poured. The people doing the construction work are needed for the architect's project; however, it's his concept that brought them there to work. Everyone that works on the architect's project needs to get paid. I want to take crypto-currency in a totally new direction; however, as payment, I want to give you a pre-issuance of the proposed new currency as the payment for your work; meaning, its the project itself that will pay you in virtual currency.

I want to create a new distributed peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that is more efficient and sustainable than Bitcoin. Using a PoQN (Proof of Qualified Node) that requires each miner to run and maintain a qualified node before being allowed to mine.

A "qualified node" is essentially an online server with a FQDN that must be running the blockchain checkpoints within its operational protocols. Each qualified node must run its own "blockchain explorer" and have visibility online to a FQDN. The code should be checked against sha-512 encryption checkpoints for conformity to preset network conditions.

Each qualified node will have full mining rights, and each node operator will be able to setup their own online storefront that represents the IP of the qualified node. Using automated API POS (point of sale) address assignments, each node operator can assign a "receive address" for each product on their site. Each transaction that runs off a qualified node will provide the person who sent the funds with the opportunity to leave feedback for that purchase on the blockchain explorer. Every product listed on every qualified node will be seachable by the product description provided on the node operators blockchain explorer.

Everytime a transaction occurs on any qualified node, the value of that tranaction and the item being sold will will go into a GVG (Gross Volume Generated) calcualtion report on each indepentantly run blockchain explorer. This will ensure that every qualified miner is updated with the current statistical value of the underlining cryptocurrency.
********************************************************************************************
There is much more to his email but I am keeping to myself for the time being. The email address that it came from is:
satoshi.t.nakamoto@protonmail.com

I think this guy might be the real Satoshi
It's not satoshi. He never used that email.

Please tell me thats not the only flaw you've identified in that text..

Also; bitcoind absolutely chugs along on ARM, i think earlier poster in regards to SAS raid and bit of decent hardware is more than reasonable.. otherwise, your node can process blocks.. behind the rest of the world, but what else?
