I was on the original list. I received nothing until today, when I got 3.141593. Looks to me like someone has a pathetic sense of humor...
This turned out to be a total disappointment.
I know I shouldn't feel this way about anything that is given away for free, but, to be honest, the time it took me to download the wallet and subscribe for the distribution is worth much more than the pathetic reward I received.
It was just a test, some free pi, out of my own personal wallet. I wrote a script and made it publicly available (look back a few posts) that automatically sent out coins to all users on the publicly available address list, to try and help the devs who seem to have been having some trouble getting that working. Sorry I upset you with my free coins  |

One thing that I think would great for this coin is if someone could set up a tipbot that would operate similar to the reddit or twitter tipbots, but directly on btctalk forum. It doesn't seem like the site supports that type of operation with an API to send and receive messages, see this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=629754.0It probably wouldn't be too terribly difficult to put together, I don't think, but maybe a little beyond my capabilities and available time... |

Feeling LOST?

Please post if you are on the original airdrop list and received the coins.
This small fun gift is unrelated to the devs, just me and jwinterm having fun with TALK.
Just started airdrop test round 2. I'm currently taking about 21 seconds to send to each address, so it will take about 7 hours to go through the entire list. I'm not sure if I need to go this slowly, but sending too fast seemed to be the problem on my first few attempts (well, on first attempt I wasn't validating addresses and I had no error handling, so I just got a JSON exception when I hit a bad address). I tried once to use one second between sends, and then I tried to do no delay between sends, and it would make it through like 100-200 addresses and then the wallet would just stop responding, so the script RPC call would time out. I guess it was just overloading. So, I could probably go a bit faster, maybe 10 seconds between addresses, but 21 seconds worked the first time, so this will be like a double check... |

Hi all BTCtalk people on the list, Last night/this morning I think everyone on the list should have received at least 3.14 coins (some near the top of the list probably received 2 or 3x that). These weren't related to the airdrop, they were my own personal coins (I'm not part of dev team). I've heard the devs are having some trouble with the airdrop, so I just wanted to write a script to see how difficult it would be to send coins to 1148 addresses. It took a few hours and several attempts, but I think I got everything sorted out. For anyone interested (hopefully devs are interested in sending coins to everyone), here is the script that I used to send them all out: http://pastebin.com/PmQmCgFfIt actually only ended up being 60 lines of python, and that is with excessive commenting and print statements. And here is a list that was output by the script, showing everyone on the list and their tx id: http://pastebin.com/gVbMBgAKI hope you all enjoyed the pi...and please let me know if you have any questions or anything  Thanks ! If it wasn't obvious before, it should be now. lol The technical difficulties were faked.. just as half the list on the air drop. THIS COIN IS A SCAM. I'm not ready to say it's a scam yet, but now the devs clearly have the tools necessary to send coins to all addresses on "the list", so there shouldn't be anymore "technical difficulties". If we don't all start getting regular airdrop payments soon, then we can call it a scam. Maybe you're unfamiliar with Hanlon's razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
Or perhaps you prefer the Napoleon version: "Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence." |

I was wondering if it is possible to send and receive private messages, for instance, using some kind of supported API for bitcointalk? Or if I want to make a bot do I need to hack it together?

Can not sync with the wallet.
Wanted to see if I received anything yet.
I've been having trouble syncing the wallet as well, v1.5.0. I have to take a copy of the synced blockchain and paste it into folder, otherwise it will get stuck around block 12000... |

We're just working out a couple kinks in the script program that hands the airdrop coins out. Should be up and running soon. And make sure to join the IRC, we have lots of giveaways planned there using our tipbot Link to the IRC? IRC channel is #BTCtalkcoin on freenode... |

I talked to airdrop guy (Rawdawg) on IRC. For all the people who haven't received any coins, just come hop on #BTCtalkcoin on freenode. If you haven't received coins for the first round of the airdrop (which is supposed to be over now), come bother Rawdawg on IRC and he will send you.

My address for the airdrop: CdoZhbgV82FMJphvJ8rCsEwqyxsPrdfa3g It's on the list posted above. No results in block explorer. How long does first part of airdrop take? It's been like more than a week. I don't think I've heard an official response for how long it's supposed to take, but I definitely haven't gotten any coins yet... Also, I just searched the top five addresses on the google docs list in the block explorer, and none of them have received anything either. wtf? |

the first wave of AirDrop it's finish ? i can say i don't received coin ? xD
Airdrop is for 20 days, this is only day 4 started on 20th May so still a long way to go yet till finished airdrop. how the fuck does it take 20 days to send out some coins to 1000 addresses? I could give a monkey a pack of ciggies and a gallon of coffee and I'm guessing he could pull it off faster. Anti dump strategy. If everyone get all coins at same time, the price goes down cause most of people gonna sell at first day. I guess that makes sense...I'll try and be more patient than Hippie Tech in the future Also, thanks for confirmation from poster right above me... |

Security question: How can I keep my Bumbleberries secure!  I think the CryptoNote chains have some special needs in regards to key safety: If I understand correctly the entire priv key is visible in plain text in the simplewallet.log file?? How can I make save they are not stolen? Are there any other special vulnerabilities to take care of? In general I think the safety measures that also apply to Bitcoin apply here: - Keep only a small amount of BBR in unprotected every day devices (phone, PC). Lets call those "hot wallets". - Dont download every crap to your device and run it, especially if its unreviewed and deals with crypto currencies! - Keep your savings wallets (cold wallets) offline in a paper backup and encrypted with high security where you can easily get to them (TrueCrypt container on GoogleDrive, your webmail account or similar)! - Make those cold wallets on an offline device (50$ laptop), that boots from a Linux Live CD and never goes online afterwards! - All you need to save is your *.bin.keys file! Anything else? Zappa di bibbedi boolberries! |

Before recently never had a prob with this coin , have deleted all but wallet.dat redownloaded blockchain twice

today is 21 may, who received the aridrop coin???
I talked to the guy writing the script to send out the airdrop coins on irc an hour or so ago, and he said that the script will run all night tonight, so supposedly everyone should get airdrop in next 8 hours or so... |

Anyone know if there is a tread switch for the simpleminer? Seems to run at 1 core regardless.
I've tried simpleminer --help for command but it produces nothing.
# of threads at the end of the argument does nothing.
--t # does nothing
--treads # does nothing
--T # does nothing
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
you just run multiple instances. so if you want three threads, open three instances/copies of simpleminer. |
