This type of BS is exactly what is wrong with this forum. No information whatsoever, just some random words strung together.

You missed my point. I'm advocating the main chain for the primary transaction mechanism and using Ripple as a general analogy.

Exchange your Waves and ETC into bitcoin for now. I think Satoshi might be back!

Good luck with that one.

Lightning Network is basically Ripple on top of Bitcoin. We don't need another IOU system. We need a peer-to-peer digital cash system.

Ha. I had deleted that Quora answer a couple of hours ago because it felt too much like a sales pitch.

Anyway, I've restored the answer now since you quoted it. Yes, of course it's true!  

Our developers are working on a client rebase and have a question: https://github.com/goldcoin/goldcoin/issues/16

Can anyone verify whether or not coin control is present in 0.8.7.5?

Goldcoin was established in May of 2013 and is a currency dedicated to reflecting the ideals of its community.

We believe that Satoshi had it right the first time and that many of the current scaling solutions being introduced are "contaminants" to his invention and not improvements. Essentially, Goldcoin is a welcoming home for bitcoin purists.

The OP of this thread contains an overview of our mission. I would suggest looking over that for additional information then asking any specific questions that might arise.

Sunday Meeting June 25 Highlights

Please find below highlights from Sunday's Skype meeting.

1.  In order to increase forum accessibility, a Facebook forum login has been added. This allows users with a Facebook account to signup with one click. I'll look into getting Twitter and Google added this week.

2.  This month was held the first German meetup between Cryptosolar and Stemis (who was traveling to Germany). In addition, node count in the country is at an all-time high and now makes up nearly 5% of the network.

3.  Gerald Higginbotham continues to raise funds for his Garden of Eden project. More on this project next week.

4.  It was suggested that our meeting time be moved up to avoid conflicts with Sunday church activity. The new meeting time is 7 p.m eastern (6 p.m central).

5.  The GoldCoin Talk forum domain was changed from GLDTALK.ORG to GOLDCOINTALK.ORG. The depreciated domain will continue to provide forwarding service for a minimum of 1 year.

6.  There are indications that our anti SegWit position is attracting bitcoin purists who are disillusioned with the current bitcoin infighting. Goldcoin is 100% committed to Satoshi's original vision which means the primary chain should never be throttled. The code enforces a social contract by its users who demand that Goldcoin remain sovereign, decentralized, and trustless.



7.  Last week Goldcoin reached its all-high in both price and volume with an intraday price of 15 cents on volume of $250,000.00. Source: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/goldcoin/#charts

8. There have been recent upgrades to the payment gateway and mail server for TryGoldcoin.com. All site email is now routed through Amazon SES while the local SMTP server is being depreciated.

9.  This fall Steve Conley will be kicking off a 19-city Goldcoin Tour speaking at historic black colleges across America.

10. We experienced an over-capacity issue with Skype at the beginning of the meeting. Skype disables audio and video when a group exceeds 24 users. This problem was resolved by removing group users who were not present for the meeting.
 
11.  Russia now accounts for our third largest country based on node count. It now makes up over 5% of the Goldcoin network. Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

I'm not sure, but it's very unusual.

This Coinmarketcap link appears to accurately reflect the exchanges real trading activity: http://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/alcurex/

I had updated the OP and the main website but then noticed the exchange is mirroring the Bittrex order books?

You might give https://hash-to-coins.com/ or http://inetrader.com/ a try!

Probably not the best idea to buy everything in sight! lol.

I would advise working to understand where the market is right, and where the market is wrong, then finding opportunity before the corrections.

As was stated previously, it's a healthy correction to an overbought market, Ethereum in particular. There's always a disconnect between the market and fundamentals and when that gap becomes too wide we get a correction.

There are still several currencies out there that are undervalued. Find these and you'll find fresh opportunity!

Sunday Meeting June 11 Highlights

There's been a lot going on within the Goldcoin community over the past two weeks. At today's meeting I made the first test of my new mobile Skype rig made up of the new Logitech 4K webcam, Sennheiser headset, and IBM Thinkpad.

I'm building the rig in preparation for next year's North American Goldcoin Tour (see below).  

~~

1.  For the past several weeks all email functions of the forum have been crippled. I mistakenly commented out the openssl extension in PHP on the website server. A friendly Twitter user recently contacted me and alerted me to the problem. Email service has now been fully restored.

Email Bug Thread: https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=3859.0

2.  Eric has announced he is buying a MAC computer so he can develop the iOS wallet. If you would like to contribute to this project, you can send a GLD donation here: E1A6WogjpqU3KjjoRUD63f7kofrFozmyfg

3.  Recently I've been testing Purse.io by buying various items w/ bitcoin on Amazon. Once the client update is released we can look into the possibility of getting Goldcoin added to ShapeShift making GLD Amazon payments possible.

4.  We're seeing an increase in activity in the Goldcoin telegram group. You can join the group here: https://t.me/goldcointalk

5.  In 2018 we will launch the "North American Goldcoin Tour" whereby I will travel the continent in a Class A motorhome w/ full Goldcoin advertising wrap. I'll be setting up booths at technology conferences, cryptocurrency conferences, and also sponsoring myself in 5K Cross County races decked out in full Goldcoin racing attire.

6.  The United States node count percentage (wallet users in the US) has just exceeded the 50% threshold. Overall Goldcoin node count is also increasing (avg per 24 hours = +300). Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

7.  The team is currently looking for an experienced broadcaster to stream/record our Sunday team meeting. The salary is 1000 GLD per episode. If you are interested in applying for this position, please attend the next Sunday meetings.

8.  Amir has announced an upcoming rebase (likely candidate 0.8.7.5) of the core client. The projected release date for this update is early to mid August. We will provide more details over the coming weeks.

9.  On June 6th, Goldcoin reached an intraday marketcap of US$5,500,000 on volume of $250,000. This was an all-time record for both the price and volume. Source: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/goldcoin/

10.  Goldcoin payment plugin installed at DrGerald.net is working flawlessly. Order confirmation after transmitting payment occurs in seconds.

11.  There are still over 100 altcoin wallets remaining in the Cryptsy Relief Project. If you are interested in one of these remaining wallets, you should make a request here: https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=3789.0

12.  TryGoldcoin now has a new merchant account w/ custom payment gateway. We now have the ability to alternate payment processors to increase redundancy lessening the chances of a gateway disruption.

13.  The United States node count percentage (wallet users in the US) has just exceeded the 50% threshold. Overall Goldcoin node count is also increasing (avg per 24 hours = +300). Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

Well you must admit that Github username is very similiar to one of your other purported aliases.  

~~

Anyway, it's nice to see this thread getting some life again. Hopefully, we can get back to talking Devcoin again soon!

There is no undue censorship. The only posts deleted are those disruptive or abusive in nature. Kind and helpful comments are encouraged and always welcome. Unfortunately, moderation is a necessary evil in a world with anonymous trolls and random mischief makers.

So far all you have done is demonstrate your own fear and insecurity through baseless accusations, name calling, and paranoid conspiracy theories.



EDIT: And just for the record you're the only person I've ever had to take the extreme measure of blocking from Github. Making Github reports attacking the developers and claiming "Goldcoin is not mineable" when it has a hashrate of nearly 2 GH/s is not constructive, and downright silly.

That seems like a good idea. When I get some time I'll educate myself on exactly how the block rewards are distributed.

It might help if we could stop the bleeding of these coins back to CoinGather for a while. This list makes the current bleeding a little easier to track: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dvc/#!rich

Of course funds are needed to maintain the network. So there's nothing wrong with exchanging the reward into LTC, BTC, or USD as long as the money is being put to good use. I'll try to learn more ASAP about how this was originally designed to work.

I contacted Gliss and he added the new block explorer to Coinmarketcap.

Now there's a "Market Cap" displayed again along with "Circulating Supply".

~~

The CryptoID Devcoin block explorer is now up and running! https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dvc/

~~

Here are a couple of notes (above my pay grade) from Fairglu for the developers:



Please give some advice on how to best respond and I will answer him.

Update: I'm now in touch with Fairglu and working on getting a CryptoID block explorer sponsored for 1 year. 



Hmm. When I close my Windows client, it works fine when reopened - just has to catch up is all.
