Yes. We sent the SJCX coins back that address the Bitcoins came from.

Right on man thanks

So once I send my btc to the counterparty wallet then send it to crowd sale  address, where  do they send the Storj to? How do they know I sent it?
Just wait. Coins will appear in your wallet that you sent from.

the counterparty wallet?

Small voice in a little crowd, but whatever:

Litecoin wolf-criers: a rudimentary comparison between the litecoin codebase and the syscoin codebase shows that the syscoin codebase has 40% more code in it.  What's that mean? It means they added an absolute MOUNTAIN of code to Litecoin. Looking through the code itself, they modified it quite a lot as well. What's that mean? It means they worked their damn asses off.

And what happens when you make the earth shattering additions and create so much innovation within the code? Well, on the small scale under controlled circumstances it probably worked fine. They probably worked every last bug out they could possibly find over the last week. They are perfectionists.

But the mining world is far from perfect, and when you add colossal attention, mining force, private builds, etc. Basically the coin gets smacked with thousands of unpredictable scenarios and if it doesn't have every failsafe perfectly in place to mitigate every issue. With a codebase as big as this, that is an extraordinarily difficult thing to do - something major companies with millions or even billions of dollars can't do.

Remember, the codebase is basically just a colossal weave of logic. That weave of logic actually behaves differently depending on what system its running on, or what compiler (the program that converts the code into an application) compiles it.

What everyone needs to understand here is that the codebase is half the size of the entire King James Bible, and bigger than any book in the harry potter series. The codebase is almost as big as George R.R. Martin's Storm of Swords, and that took 2 years to write. And AT LEAST 40% of that was built on top of Litecoin. That's why they wanted to start with an old, stable, and proven codebase in the first place, so they wouldn't have to go fixing bugs in someone else's code on top of their own.

The innovations you see in other coins? Guess what? If they were released in a week, code wise, they were relatively small changes.

And everyone that is so trigger happy to call everyone else scammers? Baloney. Devs that stick their necks out for coins and struggle to deliver the features that everyone DEMANDS to know up front sometimes have no choice to abandon projects, because they get smacked in the face with the realization that what they're trying to do would take months, and in crypto, that's too damn long. Remember curecoin? Not half as innovative in terms of code itself and the devs spent over a year working on that. Seriously.

That's why these guys spent months working on this before bringing this to market, and the features are indeed there on the backend. I've checked.

You're dealing with brilliant people here, people that have put themselves out there and have everything to lose. Sure they've got some btc, but everyone knows who they are, and like it or not, they have real lives. I'm sorry, but 1500 btc isn't enough for half a dozen people to disappear on.


Do you want to know why more incredible, hard working, brilliant developers don't rush into crypto, and altcoins especially? Because the community is filled with rabid wolves ready to tear you apart when any little thing doesn't work right. News for you, nothing works right in programming. Developers are forced to work every day with broken tools and broken code. It's a fact of life, and we deal with it every day. If that wasn't the case, there wouldn't be hacked banks, hacked networks, bug fixes and bug reports. Windows wouldn't have hundreds of updates from the word go. There wouldn't be a 'bugzilla' which is funny, because that's how coders see bugs, like f'ing godzilla.


Also, the professional bit? Do you want deep in the trenches brilliant developers that are capable of actually making phenomenal progress and producing incredible work? Or do you want PR people spewing bullshit that never tell you anything except more bullshit. I'm sorry, but I've worked in the world. The person selling you roses and butterflies doesn't have a clue what's going on in the trenches, or even how any of it works in the first place. Meanwhile, the guys in the trenches are dealing with 20 years of technobullshit that I'd be worried if they hadn't grown accustomed to swearing.

So get it together. If you're going to invest in altcoins, then you're going to have to deal with people that are more accustomed to dealing with code and computers than they are dealing with people. And if you're not dealing with people that are rough around the edges, you're not dealing with real developers. You're dealing with bullshit artists.

One last thing: The developers didn't get your money until fucking yesterday. They've been working for nothing for months. MONTHS. So sorry if they couldn't afford all the bells and whistles you think got paid for. They have it now though, and by golly, you better fucking believe they're trying to fix everything with their new resources.

Can someone explain how to use the Keypair method? I know how to use a DAT. file, but this would be my first IPO I've invested in. Just nervous I might screw it up.

I'm kinda stressed it might sell out soon so just a basic explanation would be fantastic.

Very busy here but trying to help, we'll have videos that walk this through the Syscoin wallet but here is something to get you started (I google'd for you):

Import Keypairs (private key) into Bitcoin Wallet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yltd9iMlm34
Import Wallet.dat into Bitcoin Wallet: http://superuser.com/questions/270145/import-a-bitcoin-account

Hope this helps, will be back around later tonight with more news  Wink

Great all I need. keep up the good work

Isn't 518 satoshi way too cheap?
I mean there will only be 40 million coins after 6 months.

You got people on both sides. Some think it's too high and some too low. It all depends on how you factor in the presale numbers. If you assume most presale buyers hold and there is high demand then the price shoots up to encourage presale buyers to sell and miners to dump to meet the demand. If there are more people looking to sell and take their profit then price goes down and could come close to presale price.

But looking at just mining numbers then yeah, first 6 months of mining at 518 sat is only 171btc worth. Hardly enough for all the buyers out there. So price should shoot up if presale buyers hold.

You have your calc wrong.
18% of all coins are premined, and 15% will be pre-sold, means initial Sum of coins is 360M coins.
360M*0.00000518 = 1864.8 BTC = appx. 1M $ MCAP

This initial price doesn't let any place for growth....

In case it is all legit it seems like a nice project but I think early investors should get a better starting point.


You are correct. I did not factor in the 60,000,000 coins not in the presale but those should not be dumped right after launch. No room for growth depends on if pre sale sells out and there are still more buyers waiting to buy on an exchange. 3, 4, 5 million dollar market cap isn't impossible. Maybe not right away if there are dumpers but give the coin a month or two and who knows what will happen.

Also, you have to remember this is going to be a market place and other things noted in the first post. If you hold + price goes up then you can buy more things.

Why not Mintpal first? Mintpal was purchased by Moolah.

I saw on Twitter that Moolah has just started the process. They may not be far enough in the process to be able to add Syscoin to Mintpal on Saturday. So that means other exchanges besides Moolah can get a head start on some Syscoin volume.

So this is aiming for a Million dollar market cap right off the bat. Seems kinda high. I dont believe even Via was at a million when it launched, may be wrong tho.

Hey everyone. Thinking of investing into Syscoin. One question, approximately how many coins will be mined in the first month? 
59  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]-QUID X11 Full POS 8% Only 4.6Million NO Premine NO IPO Bittrex on: August 03, 2014, 02:46:46 AM
that is one giant dildo   Shocked

Guys please don't fall for this again. I lost a btc on it. He just wants more of your money greedy assface
