Great! Let's test this pool together guys!  I'll try too - just as an experiment. |

I think that it will be very helpful to implement one feature in wallet. When anyone installs it, he can select place where to store blockchain.
AFAIK it's already implemented on Bitcoin it's called --datadir The same for Datacoin - I use --datadir to specify folder with donations wallet, no need to replace wallets. But it should be added as GUI feature. |

Can I get datacoin solo mining with an AMD Sempron LE-1250 2.20 GHz? Is there pool mining? Is the windows pre-compiled qt really that much worse for mining than the high powered source? Thanks! Datacoin sounds very interesting...
Just now there is no sense to mine with sempron. You can buy few DTC while they're cheap (1$ per dtc, and totally only 1.2 million DTC). Or you can setup a private pool with 'external miner' instructions What about quad-core i3? It's better, but the best will be to have several i3's mining and pointing to one wallet  How would I set up the pool? I have the sempron and quad-core i3. How long for a block do you think? You need to look here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=364205.msg3906618#msg3906618and you can look the end of the thread for some stats |

Any suggestions about books?

Withdraws and deposits should be processing properly again. Sorry guys.
Hey BitJohn, thanks for that. It really works better now. What about DTC ? I heard many promises, but Datacoin is still not on Cryptsy. You can see its stable price, its community, and number of votes here https://cryptsy.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/41704please PM me or answer ticket #36452 - it won't take much your time. |

""Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy. Any man who can take a TV wall apart and put it back together again, and most men can, nowadays, is happier than any man who tries to slide-rule, measure, and equate the universe, which just won't be measured or equated without making man feel bestial and lonely. I know, I've tried it. So bring on your clubs and parties, your acrobats and magicians, your daredevils, jet cars, motorcycle helicopters, your sex and heroin, more of everything to do with automatic reflex. If the drama is bad, if the film says nothing; if the play is hollow, sting me with the theremin, loudly. I'll think I'm responding to the play, when it's only a tactile reaction to vibration. But I don't care. I just like solid entertainment." R. Bradbury, Fahrenheit_451" I've found it I also discovered 2 jpeg files in the blockchain  Yep, one is somebody's photo, second .. what is second? I remember jpg with 'it works' |

the idea of the coin is awesome, but what i fail to understand is how you control the data on the blockchain.
What is somebody uploads CP or banned data (mein kampf in germany) or top-secret data?
I'll answer as a quote from another thread Datacoin would be worth investing into, but far too risky at this point for any significant funds. Haven't seen what will happen when someone uploads cp for instance...
Just want to sum up all thoughts about this. 1. As I said earlier, there is no simple way to get files from blockchain. You cannot open it and see some sequence of bytes, copypaste it and get CP picture. All files are translated into special format even if they're unencrypted. 2. Quote from reddit's user tehfiend: "For example I could create a binary that when fed Windows system files creates an illegal file as it's output. That doesn't make the Windows system file itself illegal as it needs to be "transformed" by an algorithm. The same is true with the Datacoin blockchain if that makes sense... Regardlless, if this became an issue, a filter could be created that allows users to block sections of the blockchain in their client but this obviously is very undesirable" . I agree - it is pretty simple to create such filters to avoid people from opening\storing some files from blockchain. 3. And yes, don't forget: it's possible to upload CP into blockchain of Bitcoin\Namecoin\etc. So it's your choice: to be or not to be. Not only datacoin, you can get virus that will store CP on your hard drive, and you won't know about that. What is safe - not to use computer But even in that case, if police want to arrest you for any case, it can just fraud you with drugs or weapons - still popular practices in many countries. I understand that, and I don't think it should matter. "Should" being the critical word here. I'm willing to put in a little money because of that, but I think the concept of datacoin as a permanent way of storing things online would mean that cp being uploaded to it would have a far greater impact than if it were put into Bitcoin or Namecoin. People who are afraid of that can store DTC in online wallets or VPS (just save wallet.dat on local computer, and use small VPS for wallet). Anyway, there will be many people who are not afraid and who will support the redundancy of network. |

Hi community, I did this only as proof-of-concept. The first document officially uploaded into Datacoin is quote from Fahrenheit_451 by R. Bradbury. The book is about censorship and the destruction of knowledge, two things Datacoin will fight with his permanent and decentralised storage. Why quote? The book is under copyright, so I don't want to break the law with such first document. TX ID is 7a5df5718d96c149257650caf38b1b987a2696344cd368f4b6fa4b6ef42b09a9You can check it on https://krypte.net or encrypt it from http://chainbrowser.comAnd I want you to choose books that are not under copyright from here: http://www.gutenberg.org and post them in the thread. Books like Bible are also welcome, but remember: now 'big file' functionality is in development, so just now I can upload bigger books that are archived and split into chunks. Books that are <128KB in zipped state are the best choice! Some suggestions from another thread: And I'll also donate DTC for storing such books . |

just to clarify one thing about 'proof-of-nodality'. Cheating will be pretty easy: create many VMs, make link to ONE blochchain file in each of them. Voila!
As you see, there is still no solid concept regarding reward for storage space, there ways to cheat even in bittorent network though it is not money-related.

With good compression a lot of books will fit into 128KBytes!
can you give me links to such compressed books? |
|
|

Don't forget that it's only his opinion. Here can come developers of each coin and give reasons why their coins also have such value. Another opinion can be, for example : quarkcoin, novacoin, goldcoin (not mine of course ) |
|

what do you think: should be books uploaded now, but split into chunks (as zip chunking), or should we wait until 'big file' functionality is finished?
