If there was a KYC-free open source wallet that allows debit card purchases, it would be amazing. I'm just kinda afraid to use debit cards now, considering the fact that we're in the middle of an economical recession. Smiley

Debit card purchases are big chargeback risks. I don't think that any open-source wallet will intergrate this option.

Stolen account. Untrustworthy member.

by the way this is doable even though there are multiple coin code branches over the years doing slightly different things in the tx raw block because....
i also use the decoded pretty format too! it gives all the clues you need to find what you need.
basically the pretty formatted version is a guidebook to the raw version.
although i have yet to work on a segwit blockchain... that put stuff in the raw tx block.

ps: did you ever notice some coins only gave 6 decimal place coin values?
   well, they actually only put in 6place satoshi (deci-satoshi?) values in the raw data!
   and here i used to think it was just some quirky idea of pretty displaying values. now i have to wonder the real
   reason? a way to fit a couple more transactions in? a way to deal with extremely large satoshi integer values
   nearing 20 digits trying to avoid hitting intel/x86 hardware limitations? *shrug*

so i went gonzo and started to decode totally raw tx blocks.

It has come up in discussions of what makes a crypto rare. From memory, there are cryptos whose number of decimals range from just a couple to well over 8

I tried to use them in last year. For me the

Well, I suppose it's another daily task for me; but I can track this stolen account of mine, and let Bitcointalk folks know that this 'IMZ' is a thief, untrustworthy.

Tee hee -- have a look at the '6M' chart:

42 in The Time of Inflation


'France has so far taken the boldest approach, promising that no company will be allowed to fail as a consequence of the disease that has prompted businesses large and small to suspend operations. The government will guarantee hundreds of billions worth of loans, delay tax payments and suspend rent and utility bills for smaller firms. And the French state is ready to go further, nationalizing industries if necessary.'

Can you please explain to me the reason for using both PoW and PoS as consensus algorithm in your project? If you are using PoS then there is no reason for PoW, can you clarify me, please?

Hybrid systems are always more secure and decentralized than pure PoS or PoW. This is especially actual for 42, because there is no block reward, only transaction fees for PoW miners. Unlike PoW miners, PoS miners destroy transaction fees - create deflation and make the remaining coins more rare and valuable.

And My Project is to run 42-coin miners with (provably) renewable electricity.

Had a great chat with RICH about an exchange that would only have pairs of energy-efficient coins.

I can't resist interjecting, have a look here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Solar-Powered-Raspberry-Pi/

I'm doing basically same thing at moment (same solar cell setup, but with rockchip board instead of raspi). Results have been good running UNO node on it, and powering old gridseeds to mine BOB. Still trying to cobble the sdr radio functions together, but for simply broadcasting a qr to buddy via sw works. I'm sure if you experimented with such a setup for *your* use case, it would yield at least data for scaling up if need be.

437  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most expensive cryptocurrencies on the market? on: March 06, 2020, 01:55:11 AM
Hi folks,
this seems like a trivial thread but I was reading this today > https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@thecrytotrader/5-cryptocurrencies-which-are-more-expensive-then-bitcoin
this was published one year ago.
For example, the coin named 42-coin is by far the most expensive (at the time of the article it was above $50,000, right now it is still well above $15,000 per coin).

I know market capitalization matters much more than the actual price, but just curious, do you ever consider the actual price of the coin before buying? I mean what motivates people to buy these very expensive coins?

Any constructive opinion welcome.
I do not think people are motivated to buy it, because i tried to check the 24 hours volume and i discovered how low it is.A coin might be expensive, but that does not mean it is a good coin to buy. Always do proper research before deciding to buy a coin.


Hey, Perfect. Thinking about the price of one coin is IMHO an error.

I've been interested in rare cryptos for a long time. Here are some thoughts: low volume is always a problem. So, bear that in mind.

The 'bottom line' is:

many coins are inflationary. And that is a downwards pressure on price. And all coins have accidental losses. And these help 'balance the numbers' where interest provides for increases in the total number of units.

And: the 'real' number of units in a currency is the number of 'whole coins' times the number of units in each coin. (And the tx fee can never be less than one of those units).

Here's the genius of 42-coin: it's deflationary: some tx fees are destroyed during transactions. And in the first place, there were only 42 times 100,000,000 units (standard 'sats' = 0.00000001)

So, any lost units are . . . lost. And meanwhile, the total number of units is being slowly whittled away. And in a world in which quantitative easing is creating phunnee munnee at stupendous rates, I find the notion of a hard-core deflationary 'instrument' a very interesting thing.

Note: check 42 on Livecoin. The amounts traded are tiny. No one is likely to ever put a whole coin on the market.

439  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is it possible there are altcoins costing more than BTC? on: March 04, 2020, 09:00:26 AM
I hold and trade 42-coin. It is well established. Has steady volume on Livecoin. And listings on Altmarkets and XBTS. Had the same dev, Lasergun, for years.

Please do your homework before you criticise it. Successful rare cryptos are extremely rare. Check its charts on CMC. When Bitcoin's dominance spiked last year, thousands of cryptos steadily lost value. 42 dipped, but then held steady.

Our development goal is to set 42 miners up with renewable energy sources.
