Soon as someone pulls the trigger on that 0.00036999 sell wall... All hell is going to break loose. Grin

That's the source code. There's executables out there somewhere.

StableCoin. If you disregard the premine (because it was destroyed) all these graphs are exactly what indicates a fair launch: http://cryptometer.org/stablecoin_96_hour_charts.html

DigitalCoin as well: http://cryptometer.org/digitalcoin_96_hour_charts.html

Delete the pre-mine on StableCoin, all the pre-mined coins on Stablecoin were destroyed when the coin was revived.

I assume there is a proof for that, is there ?

DESTRUCTION OF THE PREMINE

As some of you may remember, as part of the old mixing service, there were 1.2 million coins premined to act as the basis of the mixing pool. Of course, this caused much anger within the community, with accusations that the money would be used improperly, among other things. 5 months later, these funds have yet to be touched, so I'm happy to have proved those people wrong on those front.

However, under the new mixing system, these coins are no longer necessary. Accordingly, these coins will be publicly destroyed, as they were never intended to be used for anything other than mixing.

In this case, the 1.2 million coins were created in the genesis block. You might notice this is different than most coins that do their premine in block 1 and onward. This is because there is a well documented quirk within bitcoin that makes the genesis block unspendable. This is because when Satoshi designed the client, he decided not to add the coinbase transaction from the genesis block to the global transaction database.

To make these funds spendable, I added a simple bit of code during the initialization of the client (init.cpp). This code adds the genesis transaction to the global transaction database, making it spendable.
Code:

Code:
        // Genesis block
    const char* pszTimestamp = "June 7 2013, The Times, Prince Philip admitted to hospital for two weeks";
    CTransaction txNew;
    txNew.vin.resize(1);
    txNew.vout.resize(1);
    txNew.vin[0].scriptSig = CScript() << 486604799 << CBigNum(4) << vector<unsigned char>((const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp, (const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp + strlen(pszTimestamp));
    txNew.vout[0].nValue = 1250000 * COIN;
    txNew.vout[0].scriptPubKey = CScript() << ParseHex("0449D77B9B62E0DB1FD6150ECFC5722F31FEE52E585DE31B5AEFAD2CAC415D5698991F8F0B0CBBA7B9F4431BBE79B684876EDFBD369554ACC4182753FA48A3CD80") << OP_CHECKSIG;
    CBlock block;
    block.vtx.push_back(txNew);
    block.hashPrevBlock = 0;
    block.hashMerkleRoot = block.BuildMerkleTree();
    block.nVersion = 1;
    block.nTime    = 1370579804;
    block.nBits    = 0x1e0fffff;
    block.nNonce   = 2788;
                
        uint256 genesisHash("0x0a59605118489aa9cde58e64210d3d56e246758fbabcd1482e54bf4032545221");
        uint256 hash = txNew.GetHash();

{
        LOCK(mempool.cs);
        mempool.addUnchecked(hash,txNew);
}
                
{
        CTxDB txdb;
        txdb.TxnBegin();
        CBlockIndex* pindex = mapBlockIndex.find(genesisHash)->second;
        unsigned int nTxPos = pindex->nBlockPos + ::GetSerializeSize(CBlock(), SER_DISK, CLIENT_VERSION) - 1 + GetSizeOfCompactSize(block.vtx.size());
        CDiskTxPos posThisTx(pindex->nFile, pindex->nBlockPos, nTxPos);
    txdb.UpdateTxIndex(txNew.GetHash(), CTxIndex(posThisTx, txNew.vout.size()));
    txdb.TxnCommit();
}

By removing this code, the genesis block becomes unspendable, and the coins are essentially destroyed. This is the most eloquent way to accomplish the goal. Version 1.3 of StableCoin has this bit of code removed. I urge everyone to update immediately.

Strong buy pressure rolling in... That 19 wall is going to get obliterated.

I like the new logos. Torn between the two. Left or right, left or right... Hm... Huh

Officially released in the Chinese subsection.

The first comment is saying that the post doesn't appear to be google translated. Smiley They get a lot of poorly translated threads over there lately.
Deserves visibility on this page too Cheesy

Check out my latest analysis of the market: http://cryptolife.net/this-week-in-review-all-eyes-on-stablecoin-and-quark/

The future's looking bright Grin

Does anyone think that we should employ a more aggressive marketing strategy, like NXT is doing?

They've made a giveaway thread where they tell people to post proof that they are spreading NXT to boards and friends, and in exchange they are rewarded to their wallet. Perhaps we should collectively employ a similar response.
I could get behind that... How about some upvotes to start with? Cheesy

Sophos has hated my site since I've started it. Someone sharing the same IP as me has some sketchy shit on their servers. Don't worry, it's a false positive. I'm debating switching hosting companies since I get this complaint a lot.

On a lighter note, new piece re-examining last weeks winning picks: http://cryptolife.net/this-week-in-review-all-eyes-on-stablecoin-and-quark/

Hey Hazard, move your site to Digital Ocean and host CL on its own IP. No need to worry about other sites on the same shared hosting, plus very affordable and blazing fast, you'll be satisfied.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out.

Market manipulation and weak hands being shaken out. I made an excellent blog post about it on that day. Wink

Crap, Cudaminer is for litecoin only. What do people use to mine StableCoin on an Nvidia GPU?
False... Cudaminer is for scrypt based coins, which StableCoin is.

The performance is really crappy anyway, might not even be worth the electricity (unless of course, you're factoring in future price increases)

Is there anything better for Nvidia cards?
No. Their architecture just makes them inherently bad for mining.
