There was an issue in the reward calculation, it was divided by the COIN value (1000000) twice, once inside the function and once outside the function, leading to very small values. Here is a fixed version

lock your wallets untill the below date if your coins haven't staked yet sorry for any trouble this has caused people

github has been updated exchanges and other services will be contacted
windows wallet https://mega.nz/#!hkwFGJgT!gDFxXzoaB6I1qGvky4tufQFkZAlhhYRAgLd5XGAOmPw
all other wallets will be compiled shortly


Reward correctly changes to 9% every 35 days after July 9 00:00:00 GMT


seems now the new client wants to dl the whole chain again  Huh previous bootstrap doesn't seem to work with it either. any new bootstrap?

mine doesn't seem to want to stake, coins are mature and network weight many many times that of the network with client saying expected time to next reward 0 secs  Huh
503  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why bitcoin still the best than altcoin? on: June 11, 2016, 10:57:28 PM
Bitcoin has the widest adoption.

I personally feel that some so called copy paste alts are now better then BTC (being more freely developed), though despite bold claims I've not seen yet any real innovation in written from scratch alts.

I think if the bitcoin idea came after these so called 2.0 etc coins, people would be hailing bitcoin as the most innovative.

However its 'currency' people seem to think its like a mission to mars and most so called innovative alts are just adding complication, which is more a barrier to entry.

At the moment it terms of use as a currency people may be surprised to see that shells are more widely adopted as a proper currency then any crypto  Shocked
504  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why premined altcoins are considered scam-coin? on: June 10, 2016, 11:48:10 PM
AndreaF Glad you asked this question.

What seems to be lost on 99% of the current 'in it for the fiat' crypto community is the entire point of a peer to peer currency is to take the money changes out of the equation (in fiat the money changes being the bankers, who get there cut in creating and being a middle-person in transactions).

now if devs start taking their premine 'cut' they become nothing more then the new breed of bankers, and it no longer becomes a viable alternative to fiat.



The huge difference is that

- if developer premine and choose an unfair way to distribute the monetary base, everyone can see this and its coins worth nothing, He alone cannot impose any value.

- If developer premine and choose a fair way to distribute its coin. The monetary base could have a fair equilibrium among people.

- If developer doesn't premine and the mining is strictly relate to hash power. Few rich people will control the monetary base, in the same way central banks do (nd even worst). No fairness in this.


This is my point.


I would concur that many if not the majority of non premine coins are also scams.

I would also concur that premine in order to fairly distribute wouldn't violate the avoid money changes principle p2p is founded on (however i am yet to see a fairly distributed crypto).

funnily enough a few years back when everyone was bullish about winklevoss' bringing wallstreet to crypto (so to speak); i was always saying you do understand if wallstreet comes to crypto its not to make you money  Wink


508  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin IS basically DESTROYED on: May 08, 2016, 11:46:32 AM
Bitcoin is basically destroyed now with 70% of the mining controlled by China, soon to be 98+%,

The entire ecosystem is headed for a clusterfuck.

I honestly believe this is the truth.  What is there to add ?

~CfA~


how is that centralised? there's over a billion chinese  Huh

if 70% of the mining was from the USA most of you wouldn't be prattling on about it being centralised.
509  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: huge LTC sell wall on BTC-e (2000 BTC worth of LTC being sold) on: May 08, 2016, 01:23:04 AM
Litecoin offers nothing of actual usecase, bitcoin covers everything already. Ltc is just piggy backing on btc and has becomed just a pump n dump coin, its only a trade coin nothing else. As newer better projects like Ethereum, Augur, DAO, Waves mature more people jump the ltc ship, only bagholders are left right now hopibg for btc to boom.


ltc has a ton of advantages even over btc, much faster/practical to use, doesn't have a billion dollar anon bagholder (or worse a nutjob conman holding said private keys). nor is it about to split into core v classic dramas.....list goes on.

ltc primarily a trade coin atm well most definitely, but thats how even fiat gets true value., so tis a damn good start.

ltc development has plenty going on atm if you'd cared to do the research.


as for those other premine scams you list, you know they kinda defeat the whole purpose of the need for a p2p currency in the first place but whatever  Roll Eyes


as for the OP's title, hmmmm yes tis called liquidity (which in market terms is more important then price), look it up sometime  Wink


The premine excuse of litecoin bagholders is getting old, you see that litecoin has no advantage over the much more superior crypto currency technologies and can only blame the word premine. Ethereum showed market doesnt care at all about premine if the devs and technology is promising. Regarding litecoins faster transaction i must say bitcoin purchases are already pretty much instant anyway.

well then you've completely lost the point of having cryptos in the first place.

litecoin has many advantages over these so called new "innovative" currencies. if ETH came in 2009 and btc/ltc came out now everyone would be hailing btc/ltc as the innovative ones.

511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ethereum added to gemini exchange - litecoin ignored , as expected (justified) on: May 07, 2016, 03:09:03 AM
a) gemini is irrelevant

b) can't see regulators being too happy about them listing an ICO lol (though it was approved by New York State Department of Financial Services, i doubt thats the end of it).

512  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: LOL Antonopoulos Destroys Banks’ Blockchain Delusions Once Again on: May 06, 2016, 11:59:30 AM
tis not just the Banks missing the point, tis 90% of the crypto community.

then we have all this tech startups etc trying to be the next generation of greedy bankers.

regulations  Huh  the whole modus operandi is to be indifferent to regulation; borderless p2p money, were money changes don't get their cut.

bitcoins just the distraction  Wink
513  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright and Gavin Andresen - Summary of the Story on: May 04, 2016, 02:45:17 PM
If I were Satoshi I might be tempted to sign a message stating that I am Craig Wright. I would then disappear again and be less worried that ever about being discovered. It would be quite a shock to Craig also, assuming he in not Satoshi.  Wink


was thinking the same lol (even thought that might have been half gavins reason for backing wrights claim help the real satoshi stay anon)


only flaw is Wrights trying too (and has) commit fraud
514  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / gov/regs already watered down btc? on: May 04, 2016, 02:08:11 PM
i've been in crypto many years but never have done fiat to crypto or vica versa.

here is australia tonight i was looking up places to go btc to fiat, found very few (seem btc interest waning here) and the ones i did find required this thing called verification.

whats with that  Huh

kinda defeats half the purpose of btc in the first place.

have gov slowly snuck in to water down bitcoin usefulness as a p2p currency.

i see all these startups and blockchain bs companies.....btc kinda heading to the other side  Shocked


 Embarrassed
515  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MAX] MaxCoin - Alive and Kickin' on: May 04, 2016, 10:34:01 AM
so is this thing still alive and kicking?
Definitely. Buy any dips.

well yes its pumped from time to time. but apart from that is it alive in any other aspect?
 

watchin it, one does get the sense, someone/few are nibbling at it, just for a later pump.

actually be a good coin to revive. exchange listed and plenty of other things, maybe even max would get onboard again?

summary; Obama doesn't want the Saudi sued over the few thousand killed in 9/11 as it opens the USA to being sued buy the millions its recently and currently killing or displacing in protecting its own interest; makes sense.

No, it doesn't "open the USA up" or any such thing.  

Sovereign nations under English common law have immunity from lawsuits.  This carries over and down into states, and even counties and cities having similar immunities.

What is interesting is a question about the immunity of (hypothetical) a single Saudi Prince.  

I think he's not able to piggyback on the immunity from lawsuits enjoyed by his nation.

Simplifying it a bit.

Say a Saudi prince goes to England, shoots a man in cold blood, then returns to Saudi Arabia.

Is he immune from prosecution in England?

I'm not an attorney but I think NO.


sorry but your waffle missed my entire point  Roll Eyes
it's not a waffle, and your point seemed to be that damage from war could be solved with lawsuits, which is ridiculous on it's face value.

it wasn't my point, i was paraphrasing obama's  bs Roll Eyes (with a touch of sarcasm) but you're off on your rant so by all means.
518  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright's Agenda on: May 02, 2016, 12:52:09 PM
Inside information anyone?

If indeed he's not Satoshi as the majority of the community as well as the Bitcoin core folks say, why is this guy doing this?

you heard he just wants to be left alone, so solution;

ann to the world you are satoshi  Huh

(maybe plan for outcome wasn't thought out so well, like maybe "i'm not satoshi" would have had the desired effect, but what do i know verses this genius).




519  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: GAVIN: "I believe Craig Steven Wright is the person who invented Bitcoin" on: May 02, 2016, 12:47:26 PM
This hoax is very elaborate. So now Gavin is also in the same boat as this guy?

why not? then he gets to hide the real satoshi and can have this wright guy support his plans (to sway people).

makes sense
