502  Local / Press & News from India / Re: And now, a desi digital currency in the offing-Laxmicoin on: December 16, 2013, 07:39:43 PM
Well first  i would love to  know  what you are  launching. How is this  system any good. what are its  advantages. and the  big question is it  opensource?

Because all i can see this  being  used  for is  for  money  transmitting  purpose. correct me if i am wrong.
503  Local / Press & News from India / Re: And now, a desi digital currency in the offing-Laxmicoin on: December 16, 2013, 06:35:35 PM
I really dont  want to  speculate  much about  new  coins  comming up.

This coin has no properties bitcoin has. and  is not in the  same  league as bitcoin.

Announcing  a  name and saying it  is going to be launched, only makes it  viewed as a closed source, premined coin that they will most probably use it  as a a money transfer system. nothing to  do  with  currency use.

How do I list up Krogyan ?  Grin

Well i would love to  put Krogyan however, it needs to have  more details  like  website a business bank  account. right now  you  come under a individual bitcoin seller and buyer, and i  am not  listing  individual buyers and sellers at this moment.

I will list any other  services and  businesses using  bitcoins.

Just for future references.

www.krogyan.com
(under development)

Thanks for the update as soon as it is launched and starts trade i will update the list.

The site is currently open to only Indian citizens and yes, we will require PAN.We have taken certain measures to protect user details and will keep on improving them. Even if the site is hacked, neither any monetary loss can occur nor PAN details will be compromised.
Security Features(some still to be implemented before the launch)

1.sha1 encryption for passwords
2.encryption for what ever data is transfered
3.ssl keeps data over network secured
4.cookies for maintaining session which is also secured by encryption plus ssl

About Us


Plain hashing is highly insecure for passwords. sha1 is not encryption. The passwords are just begging to be stolen. You have to spend a lot of time learning about security best practices, and you should pause release until then. Please use bcrypt, pkdf2 or scrypt.

+1
Agreed

Doesn't Bitcoin change the need for traditional Business models like website, etc?
Would be nice if this could come under the gambit of a Bitcoin Business as well.

I can see way way more scope in entrepreneur driven businesses rather than larger entities.



Well Benson, What i want to list here are businesses that offer services for bitcoin. that includes individual service providers (entrepreneur ). like i did above. but when it  comes to  Bitcoin traders there are  too many here.  Exchanges like the fixed price and Excrow types, that have setup businesses and trade, keeping certain Customer satisfaction and services at par or even higher. this was the only reason i added the two exchanges up there.
This list is to encourage existing businesses and new ones to list as bitcoin supporting business and propagate. This is to promote entrepreneurs and grow the bitcoin economy here in india.
I have been seeing legendster conduct his trades on the forum, and i think he has big potential to start up his Krogyan exchange. In fact he can start by setting up a simple website have a exchange API list price conversion on it, and start taking orders using a  simple  order form. start dealing with customers and quarries. I was hoping he would have done so a few months back.

Hello friends... just joined to this great forum today. Found in a news article. I have developed a few twitter apps and wish to use BitCoin as payment method. Hope to get help in the integration process from all of you.

Welcome .

You should talk to abishek over at the Indian Bitcoin Community IRC channel . he  is  developing some thing similar. you two can  work together on it.
510  Local / India / Re: Can many virtual currencies co-exist? on: December 13, 2013, 02:15:09 AM
Hello all,

I was at the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas this week and to tell you guys the truth, I came out of it more confused than I was prior to attending the conference.

What do you see in Bitcoin's future? We have so many Alt coins that it's hard to keep track of all of them. Canada is working on it's own virtual currency, MintChip (backed by government of Canada). I am sure other countries will soon follow suit. Indian developers are working on a decentralized currency, Laxmicoin. With all these coins out there, do you see them all coexisting or all but 2-3 of them are going to be pump and dump?

Curious as to thoughts of the group here.

Thanks!


Well there is nothing much to get confused about.  the alt coins you see would actually have to go through the  test by fire i.e market trends. the way it is made the the added value it  provides. currently alt coins like LTC, PPC and XPM, have a  uniqueness to it, but will have to stand the test of time on what is accepted better. There are a few more contenders to this like Quarks (CPU based mining), and Stable coin (Focus of anonymity). which are followed by many clones of the above type of coins. LTC, PPC, Quarks and FTC are primed to be a lesser of what BTC is at this moment, and does provide an advantage over speed of transaction. But what you chose as your alt coin that might make it  depends totally on what you feel may make it as a valuable economic success.

In the terms of Laxmicoin, the word out there is it is not decentralized and is more  of a money transmitting model for INR fiat. which has to be classified differently.

P.s - pump and dump is also prevalent with BTC. This is one thing that cant be changed about the nature of a decentrilized currency system till there is proper distribution of wealth in the  crypto currency community.
511  Local / Press & News from India / Cyber experts unearth massive bitcoin scam |N. Arun Kumar | Fabricated Article on: December 10, 2013, 08:55:18 AM

O shit i cant stop laughing at the  pure idiocracy of this  news article.  I bet the Journalist was the  one  who lost that money . Who on  earth  would  be  so stupid  to  take  his  companies money and put in an exchange.  and on top of that put in 2.5 lakhs into bitcoin.

This story is  either a complete hoax or the  guy is a real moron.. If this guy would have had half the brain he would have come to this forum and  told  us about it.  any one in this  forum would have helped.

By the way there are no exchanges market in India, secondly  there is no way in hell this  person could have transferred 2.5 lakhs  out of the country to a foreign exchange.   What a  crap  of bullshit.

Just edit the subject as [CLOSED]
513  Local / Press & News from India / Re: Economic Times articles (the journo sounds too scared of digital currencies) on: December 08, 2013, 08:28:52 PM

Fear mongering reporters who know  nothing about how bitcoin works and thinks it can be used only for money laundering. infact it makes money laundering much more harder.

A system that records every transaction in the public network. lets see the  banks do that.

heheh lol
517  Local / India / Re: BTC Going back to $100 on: December 08, 2013, 04:07:46 AM
It is not going down to a $100 most it may go down to is about $400.
518  Local / India / Re: BTC Going back to $100 on: December 07, 2013, 06:46:58 AM

First Crash - 32$ to 2$  - mt.gox numbers....1/16th value
Second Crash - 260$ - 54$ - mt.gox + btc24 numbers....1/5th value
Third Crash - 960$ - approximately 650$.... not fixed yet...just 1/3rd value.....the crash percentages is getting lesser....which is better

That is called re-distribution of wealth. If you thought bitcoin was just a way to make money, you are mistaken....I have survived all three crashes and I think, I will still be around for more. There will be many more bubbles before it gets into mass adoption. Use crashes  to increase your bitcoin holdings.

cheers and have fun. The present crash is nothing compared to the FIRST CRASH. also never invest more than you can lose.

have a good day...get used to it........

also regarding china, I am happy, bitcoin scares them. They have crazy capital controls...and bitcoin really proves its disruptive nature there.

Agreed with you on this, you make a good  point on redistribution of wealth and  the other  bubble will happen  once indian gets a  fully functional exchange. and then may be the africian union. who know with bitcoin the skys the limit.
519  Local / India / Re: Take time to STOP and THINK! on: December 07, 2013, 05:44:53 AM
This thread is in the wrong section.

This is a market place only for trade.
520  Local / India / Re: Any well rounded theories to curb volatility? on: December 07, 2013, 03:12:42 AM
Would be nice to know any ideas afloat on curbing the volatility of Bitcoin to FIAT prices.

A global Exchange, High volumes of traders, and stable government acceptance of bitcoin.

That has too many variables. There has to be some simpler solution.

Something built into Bitcoin, like an exchange logger that does not allow for mass fluctuations.

Regardless as to how high it climbs back, this is depressing to watch.

Well the only thing that comes to mind is a standardized exchange protocol that all exchanges can us, where in trade of bitcoin can be  done  between exchanges. This would stabilize prices to a certain extent. but trade between exchanges it self brings up  far to many hurdles than solution.

well I do not know if its legal.. I am sure exchange can not take part in any kind of trading..

reagrds
Well i am talking about trade between exchanges, like a user in exchange A get his purchase from exchange B. the exchange it self does not take part in the trade. But the inter-trading between various exchanges takes place to accommodate the best price for  sell and buyer, automatically.

Well that can surely help with volatility and manipulation...
This in fact really good idea.. But I doubt if any exchange will accept it because than they will not be able to manipulate a lot.


Regards


This is where Benson suggestion of a protocol built on top of bitcoin makes sense. once it is on bitcoin. there will be services that will open up  starting an exchange arround the world these exchanges would be interconnected and the onec that stand alone will eventually loose customer volumes and the newer exchanges will make up a majority.
