Yeah that makes sense - but I actually meant that people could vote on anyone for being the bad ass person of the week - any public figure who was already in the news...not just the cast of Breaking Bad
Crazy IDEA 3: what if we create a faucet where we only give HEX to convicted felons. Just like Iceland has all these harsh economic situations thrust on thEm so aurora coin can make a good rant on its website, convicted felons have obstacles too - like it is more difficult for them to get a job b/c they have to fill out that box on the job application - so we give them free HEX. "Prove you are a convicted felon and get free HEX!" It would probably be good promotion in any case...

Crazy idea continued:
Or what if we do a post-mine. We could cancel all mining and hold all the coins that have not been mined into a post-mine fund. Those coins could be claimed by normal people sending pics into the HEX website of them doing bad-ass things. What would qualify? Who knows. But we could have something like "Send your bass ass pic and claim your HEX" The pic would get shown on the website and people could vote with HEX as to if it was actually bad ass or not. If it is considered to be bad ass they get some of the post-mine.
We would create a nation not of poor Spaniards or poor Icelanders but bad ass HEX lovers...

Here is a crazy idea. It seems like the big thing right now is giving coins away, or even just the thought of giving coins away. Aurora and Spain coin both have an absurd 50% premine and you know hardly any of those coins will actually make it to the inhabitants. But I think that idea appeals to people because they think that will give the coin better chances for mass adoption.
What if we try something similar with HEX. I mean it's to late now to do a 50% premine and give those coins to everyone -- I don't know - in jail or something.
But what if we created a mintpal style voting system that used small amounts of HEX rather than bitcoin. And instead of voting on what coin gets added next to the exchange we vote on what public figure was the most bad ass that week. And maybe we create memes combining HEX and the public figure to make our case. Then we use the HEX generated from the votes to "give" to the public figure. Of course the winning public figure for that week be it Lindsey Lohanne or whoever would probably never go through the steps to claim their HEX. So the HEX would just continue rolling over until it got so big that maybe a public figure would go through the steps to accept it and that would be good for HEX. But just the action of voting for bass ass things might be newsworthy and good promotion for HEX. Bitcoin related news is really big right now so who knows if we created such a system we might get written up online and the price of HEX could explode... I mean HEX is the most bad ass coin around - why not connect it with whoever is the most bad ass at the moment?

Yeah that is great news!
But Now that we are on coinmarketcap you guys should clean the website up a little - maybe not make the first page the drama with the coin, maybe tuck that somewhere in the back and present something more professional on the first page - also the website still says under the spec section that total coins will be 23 billion. Is that true? I thought there would be fewer since the halving was happening faster than intended...
|
|
|
Yeah everything seems quiet, which I imagine means things are going on behind the scenes, which I imagine means that it is probably a good time to buy...
|
|
|
Has anyone been able to figure out how many total coins there will be since the halving is happening faster than originally intended?

Is there any chance of a wallet in the future not needing to input a conf file and add nodes. I am in the health industry and have no idea how to do computer science stuff. But I like this coin and would like to buy more of it. What is holding me back (and perhaps other people like me) is that I can't get a wallet to work on my computer and so I have to let all my coins just float on cryptorush which seems like a really stupid thing to do because cryptorush is always having problems - so I don't want to add more coins to that situation. So is there any chance of a user friendly wallet in the future where nodes and things don't have to be added and the thing simply downloads and synchs - or is that just a pie in the sky dream at this point - cause if I could get a damn wallet on my desktop I would just keep buying this coin - I don't know why but I'm obsessed with it...
The conf file is not necessary, you can also add nodes through the debug console Click on Help --> Debug Window Click the "Console" tab at the top There is a command box at the bottom next to the > symbol. To add a node, type this and hit Enter: addnode 54.213.143.65 add You can add as many nodes as you like, there are several listed throughout this thread. Once the wallet begins to sync, you should never have to do this again. As soon as one node is connected, it will communicate other available nodes to your wallet, and soon you will have no problems getting synchronized. Mortimer it worked like a charm!!! Post your wallet: I'll send you some HEX

Mortimer never mind just adding that one thing seems to be doing a lot -- THANKS!!
|
|

When I go to the console and add that first thing I get this error message:
18:34:20  addnode 54.213.143.65 add
18:34:20  {"code":-32601,"message":"Method not found"}

Thanks I'm gonna give it a try!

CryptoRush BTC markets back online again (via Twitter): "BTC markets are back on, but we're still having problems with withdraws. If you're unable to withdraw, please try it again later." Good time to withdraw your HEX to safety... I can't get my windows wallet to sync. I'm using the old wallet that has the password. Anyone have any idea what I might have to do to get the wallet to sync? The wallet opens but it reads, "out of sync) By the way here's a shout out to whoever designed the HEX wallet that is pretty bad ass how you included a "cook" icon

My Breaking Bad marathon continues| Episode 2 best quote: Jess'e: "Why do you have me running around town to buy a stupid piece of plastic when I have a perfectly good bathtub to use."
And then the body or should I say blood mush gushes down a hole in the house -- remember that part?
It kinda strikes me re-watching the series that we are like Walt and Jesse at the start - struggling to get going - having to use an RV to cook but soon it will be on to bigger and better things like a nice new lab...
Heisenberg equals the essence of cryptocurrency

So I'm going on a Breaking Bad binge on Netflix starting with season 1. How awesome is it in the pilot when Walt raids the high school supply room for all his cooking supplies? By the way check out www.bettercallsaul.com. It is really funny.

|

Nice! This thread had a problem so...better call Saul By the way has anyone seen the better call Saul website - fucking hilarious www.bettercallsaul.com

So if the halving is happening twice as fast then what is the total amount of coins going to be? Will it be a lot less than 23 billion?
