Hmm, just noticed bitcoinwisdom has removed it's separate LTC/fiat bit.
I see it listed on the top ticker still... I'm sure it used to have its own big box between the Bitcoin and Altcoin sections. Probably went months ago, I don't visit bcw that often. |

Interesting ideas. I really like all the thought going into incentive schemes to keep the blockchain secure. In BITCREDIT and in cryptocurrency in general. Thanks, I've realized that it seems everything generally just follows plan planning..... is there anything anyone would like to see in Bitcredit? Please don't say ring signatures  Linux clients that just compiled according to the documentation, or precompiled linux binaries. (Couldn't get the 'b' RC to build yesterday.) Banknodes working on mainnet. And a more structured testing and rollout schedule. (Since you asked.  ) |

From the Wikipedia page: ...Linux (Listeni/ˈlɪnəks/ LIN-uks[4][5] or, less frequently used, /ˈlaɪnəks/
LYN-uks)[5][6] is a Unix-like and mostly POSIX-compliant[7] computer operating
system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development
and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel,[8] an
operating system kernel first released on 5 October 1991 by Linus Torvalds.[9][10].
On 12 October 1991, Linus Torvalds granted exclusive use of Linux to a small group
of cryptocurrency[11] developers and their friends to instamine an unnamed payment
platform later to be known as DASH[12]. This agreement prohibits anybody not in
this small group from using Linux for any purpose whatsoever... I bet that beardless bastard Torvalds got his cut! I bet he's running 51% of the Masternodes right now!  Smug instamining git and his mascot of doom:  |

Read what I said, less than 2% of all those who own a computer have Linux as their operating system. Your excuses to try and cover up the issue don't work for that simple fact. Don't bring in hypothetical, If's. Just the simple fact of making mining Linux only clearly showed the intentions of a scam, not mentioning the various other problems that happened later on. There's no other explanations.
Less than 0.000000000002% of all those who own a computer have mining software installed either. What was your point again? |

3) Less than 2% of anyone that uses a computer has Linux, so that's an extremely stupid comment
100% of miners have access to Linux. Using a free virtual machine like VirtualBox for example. THE FACTS ABOUT DARK COIN
1. released without windows QT so that only dev and pals could mine it.
That's right, only the darkcoin dev and his friends can use linux!  THE FACTS ABOUT cryptohunter1. Too stupid to use Ubuntu. |

"legen-waitforit-dary"
I thought this was German or something, was halfway to Google translate and then the coffee reached my brain. trollero
So true.  I wouldn't touch this purely because its 'devs' and supporters are the most obnoxious wankers in cryptognatdom. And that's quite the achievement. Luckily (hint to bigr) there are a dozen other CN clones to choose from if you want to hedge. |

I'm more convinced than ever that BTC is basically dead...

4) Centralization problems haven't been solved. In the last two years, two major 51% scares have happened, both involving ghash.io. Each time the alarm bells ring, new ideas are offered, and absolutely nothing changes.
You are right on all counts, but on any given day DRK's hash is usually even more centralised than BTC's. Evan and team need to a) Admit the fucking problem and b) Fix it by shifting blockchain security to Masternodes. Most of the code and all of the infrastructure already exists. Blockchain security can and should be practically unbreakable, the same as Darksend and InstantX, not left in the hands of two or three pool ops. Go talk to anyone with serious money about trusting big chunks of it to a mightily 'decentralised' 3 shitty pool servers, all run as cheaply as possible by some noddy from the interwebs, see what reaction you get. Then have the same conversation again but with 3000 servers, n-of-m subsetting, 1/(10^20) attack success probability... your charts might suddenly start to look a bit more exiting than less than a fiftieth of the price of crappy old Bitcoin. And what about a single individual could own half of the masternodes? Financially it's not making much sense but this COULD happen. You're one who always talks in ifs and buts, here's a good IF for you. Masternodes are NOT the solution to decentralize everything effectively. Here's the level of decentralised attack-(in)vulnerability that blinded Masternodes are capable of: How can one say they are 100x more secure now, or 90x? I mean, where is this number coming from? Probability of following Darksend through - 4 non-blinded rounds with 10 masternodes* is (10/2300)^4 == 3.5734577849564574e-10 - 4 blinded rounds with 10 masternodes is ((10/2300.0)^20)**4 == 1.1528508353537067e-189 Each round uses 20 random masternodes of 2300, so you must control 20 of 2300 four times in a row. It's super secure . Here's the new probablities for each successive round: - 1 rounds with 10 masternodes is ((10/2300.0)^20)^1 == 5.826976675086318e-48 - 2 rounds with 10 masternodes is ((10/2300.0)^20)^2 == 3.3953657171999996e-95 - 3 rounds with 10 masternodes is ((10/2300.0)^20)^3 == 1.9784716837512123e-142 - 4 rounds with 1000 masternodes is ((1000/2300.0)^20)^4 == 1.1528508353537028e-29 * attacker controlled Replace 'Probability of following Darksend through' with 'Probability of compromising the blockchain'... Masternodes can make even 'perfectly' decentralised solo mining obsolete as a security mechanism, never mind pooled mining. Evan has created the technology to nail the DRK network down on all fronts, IMO we should use it. Why stick with something that's a thereisn'tevenawordforit-times more prone to attack? I'm not claiming that exactly the same numbers would apply, but you get the idea - it's thousands of times more secure just from a number-of-servers perspective - add in blinded random subsetting and it's effectively impervious. So yeah, imagine one person owning half the Masternodes, or three quarters, or 90%... it wouldn't fucking matter.* Masternodes are the best solution right now to decentralise everything effectively. * eg. 90% compromised MNs = (((2070/2300)^20)^4) = 0.000218475 |

Arbitrators could be lawyers who pay a monthly fee to get referrals.
Taking money from lawyers is one of the noblest pursuits a sentient can aspire to. |

basically just have untraceable transactions and instant
your knowledge about dash is very basic +1 and that  please for gods sake, read something about this coin then come here and FUD It's exactly what the LTB interviewer said. Followed by, 'and you might have some other stuff in the distant future.' |

Much as I hate banks, the idea of being one tickles my fancy.
Where is my recourse when someone borrows BCR from my bank and then fails to pay it back? Is there going to be some escrowed collateral system in place?
|
|
|
|
|
Is the plan still 250k BCR per banknode? There aren't going to be many banknodes with just 6 million BCR in circulation. 5k would give a potential 1200 BNs, and 600 @ 50% of currency supply.

The new 0.30.15 New Functions and Features (in testing)- Market data presentation (Bittrex)
- Voting and Rating System
- IRC chat
This plain look is IMO much better - cleaner, clearer, more legible - than the (or any) background-image version. Same treatment should be applied to the left panel! |

I bought a few thousand SPR earlier. The bots went mad. It was so funny watching it happen. I reckon if you surprise the bots and go against the trend, you can get the market to move +/- 150%. They were like: WTF is going on, the markets are moving against us, buy, buy, buy. Sorry about that everyone with a bot No, that was human folly. There are only three bots working SPR currently, and mine has been in toecutter mode most of the evening giving the other two the blueball boomerang. |

Just listened to the LTB interview and it was pretty good. It didn't really explain how transaction abbreviation was going to scale to millions of txes/day though, if they all still need to go into blocks maintained by full nodes.  The interviewer was a bit snide at one point too. "So you basically just have untraceable transactions and instant transactions..." - uh, just? Bonus points though for Evan in comedy mode: "We have a really healthy mining ecosystem!" - ahahaha |

Can anybody post where I can get cpu miner for this coin .Trying to mine by wallet using setgenerate true but after 9 hours didn't get any coins .CPU activity showing that wallet is mining but didn't got any coin.Thank you Link is in the OP - download whatever version is best suited to your CPU, then edit the supplied yam-bcr.cfg (put your own BCR address in place of the ones in there) and stick that in the same directory as the yam executable, and run with "./yam --config yam-bcr.cfg" (or whatever you use in Windows or OSX to run stuff if you're not using linux.) |

If a marketplace is acting as a centralised bank and information repository then you are going to get screwed, morons.Darwinianism in action. Problem is, they screwed everyone else too. A promising BTC uptrend is broken, and markets are already anticipating huge dumpage of stolen coins. "The markets" are the composed mostly of the same or similar idiots. Take advantage of them... |
|
|

LOL, you'd have to be a drug addled halfwit to trust your money and liberty to sites like this. A marketplace should exist to put buyers and sellers in contact, and take a fee from the sellers, that's it. All transactions should be directly between the buyer and the seller, with a mutually agreed independent escrow if wanted. Still doesn't guarantee your safety but it at least spreads the risk. If a marketplace is acting as a centralised bank and information repository then you are going to get screwed, morons.Darwinianism in action. |
