I don't understand Ixcoin's higher valuation over I0coin, unless it's being propped up by nothing more than speculation. I mean 96 coins per block (Ixcoin) vs. 48 coins per block (I0coin). Shouldn't I0coin be 3x what Ixcoin is? That's why I chose to get out while the gettin was good. Of course by my action alone it will mean Ixcoin will double to quadruple in value with my luck Maybe higher valuation but it's less profitable to mine them: http://coinotron.com/coinotron/AccountServlet?action=home

Hasn't that been down for weeks? Is it ever coming back up? Yes, and still down

I agree with dree12.
Can anyone explain how merged mining would NOT drop the price down to 0?
The price won't drop to 0 if the coins are useful So yes you're right, the proce will drop to 0 Bitcoin are also not "useful". If we added 10M bitcoin to the economy today, price WILL drop to zero. Do you understand the concept of "50 coins per block"? Why are you talking about adding 10M coins??

Bitcoin lovers calling this guy dumb, he was smart enough to see the problem and fix it early.
You better be trolling

Not to savvy on how exactly that purchase might affect the price
No, don't worry 100k BTC won't affect the price Oh btw to the attention of noobs: no, she won't buy, the price won't rise, she's just wanting to sell her Bitcoins higher

ITT: people think mining 6 1-minute blocks in a row is as difficult as mining 6 10-hours blocks in a row

It's not the passphrase that is encrypted, it's your wallet And to answer you, you just can't

I have a .2 BTC bounty for anyone that knows how to recover encrypted passphrases ?
Encrypted passphrases?

This will not be changed. You guys are lucky that we even have that forum, since it was that or we start deleting the posts.
Seriously, just move your discussions over to the SolidCoin forum.
I do think this thread was a joke, although your post might be sarcastic. Ah well, can't ever tell on these forums . Yep

Given the improvements such as SC in the difficulty re-targeting algo
Such algo is only needed if the global hashrate changes dramatically Which will occur if many people leave the Bitcoin network So if this algo becomes needed, people would be anyway mining another blockchain... So this is useless the encrypted wallet in the client
I love when you altchains supporters use that argument Do you know this feature is copied from Bitcoin client? Do you know why it isn't in the official client? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Alpha address checking among others.
Absolutely useless for Bitcoin (if someone really want to know why: because Bitcoin uses Bitcoin addresses........) How will BTC remain relevant when MtGox and TH start exchanging SC to USD?
You are convinced it will not, so why even asking? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=38453.msg492142#msg492142

It is not fair to compare Solid coin and all the other scamcoins that have no real value on their own.

Yeah, unit tests, test suites, ... who needs that shit for a network handling $M of transactions daily? Just focus on adding features to the GUI! *facepalm*
If you had ever looked at the ugly state the Bitcoin code is in (and the inherent issues in it) you wouldn't be thinking it's fit enough to run millions of dollars worth of transactions a day. It's like someone turned in a highschool assignment and everyone else went "well that works" and off they went. I mean, which "designer" decided to start dumping GUI and other settings in wallet.dat ? Do they know there is a .conf file for this? Where is at least some attempt at backing up wallet.dat's which are worth tens of thousands? Is it really the mantra that if the power goes off and your wallet.dat was being written to that it's your fault for not running some sort of sophisticated backup system for it? Is it that hard to always have a backup file there (a single copy command) ? These type of things are standard for bulletproof applications that customers have to use, anyone with experience in the industry would see it in a second. This is only the tip of the iceberg. I have to laugh at the trolls who can't program and don't understand how awful the situation is for BTC at the moment. Satoshi had some great ideas, but he wasn't a good programmer, and since he left barely anything has been done with the code. The client has stagnated, badly and nearly no one wants to touch it. So keep the false worship up and let's see how deep people like you can keep digging the Bitcoin hole. Wow Scary

LOL mate, your the King of trolls.
And like I said - exchange rate of 0.00169534...pretty poor effort... 96IXC/blk <--> 46I0C/blk blah blah etc... The exchange rate just means nothing and you know it, only the profit means something but hey, maybe you'll convince someone! And finally, yea I tried to post my first response but it timed out. So it got posted twice. Seeing as thats not obvious to you I can only assume you must be pretty new to the internet... Oh my bad... No, you won't convince anybody finally Fuck off troll..LOL You lost jackoff? home's here ----- > Nice place, do you want me to show you mine?

Anyway, maybe i0coin needs to release a great huge awesome new release on sept 1st! Why? Well dunno... Solidcoin planned to release his new release on this day, and our beloved nasakioto thought that if he released his own shitty new version on the same day it will bring some glory to it So... As I0coin is a ixcoin fork, why not?
I'm going to see if I can integrate the merged mining patch from namecoin into iocoin.. but that won't be till later this weekend, and it's have to be scheduled (and frankly voted on by the miners since it will require upgrades and a choice of a future block to go live).. merged mining is the only thing that will save the alt chains... IE, imagine if you could mine iocoin, namecoin, and bitcoin all simultaneously with the same hash strength. It was just a joke but nice idea! Looks like it works well on Namecoin testnet http://dot-bit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=269As for the block#, I think it's not critical to chose now, we can vote after we are sure it works in testnet
