If Bitcon talk bans all opposing view then you will only have left here exclusively the scams you support.
that's does not make for a balanced market.
we need each other Bitcon talk.
i can has banned not?
Umm...can we get the kiddie corral back plz? |

I'm playing with FreeBSD - no idea how to use this OS, and I have never used it before.
is it an easy thing to install monero on this os?
If it's easy, anyone have a walkthrough?
If you have never used a unix-like cmd-line OS, it's not going to be easy. Use the OS you know best - you're dealing with real money value - I wouldn't mix that with trying to learn a new OS. Have used plenty of mint/ubuntu Have never used bsd. I'm using monero as an excuse to fix that  Well, then freebsd is no more difficult than most linux distros. Start here - http://www.freebsdmadeeasy.com/For kicks I'm going to install it too - the interface is so simple under windows that I haven't felt the need to jump to fbsd, but I figure I can see what dependencies are needed. Wait for the wallet to sync, open up a second session and run ./simplewallet GJ devs! |

Please someone make available the general index of altcoins vs. BTC how it's been doing in the time of carnage. (over the course of a few weeks, and also since the dropping through the latest floor)
I would say 10-20 largest altcoins would be good for the index, but I also heard indices with established methodologies exist.
Not exactly what you are looking for but nevertheless here are some interesting insights on the altcoin markets over the last 6-12 months in the latest Coindesk quarterly reports. http://www.slideshare.net/CoinDesk/state-of-bitcoin-q3-2014Slide 16 & 17 are the relevant ones. |

Checking...
I made no changes - looks accurate now. Glitch in the matrix? |

I hoped intellihash was just Ken being a bad communicator.
It sounds like you had high hopes for iNTELLiHASH. Didn't you claim to have invested your life savings in AMC/VMC? Or was that LabCoin? I forget which.  I hedged my LabCoin investment with AMC/VMC <--- wicked smart. |

Awesome - thanks. Can you check your price history? I added Stellars that I bought at .000004 and now are at .000008, yet it shows an -80% price change, aka a decrease. |

For CPU mining only Primecoin  I mined primecoin at launch, made quite a few of them... sold them off for a combination of LTC and BTC, though. How does its profitability stockup against Monero's these days? Think I'm going to point a few comps at a monero pool when I get home unless i hear a compelling reason to try another instead... I'm buy and hold only - mining altcoins just to get more BTC or USD isn't interesting to me. Obviously the market does what it wants, but I'm looking for long term building of the Monero ecosystem. |

I leave my spare CPU cycles to hash Monero. On MinerGate you can also merge-mine a choice of at least two other cryptonight coins. Primecoin looks good though and they're implementing side-chains soon. +1. Monero offers something Bitcoin doesn't (anonymity) - it should have some legs, whereas many of the others don't offer any unique values (cough, cough ... DOGE). |

This is not helpful in this context. Sure, everyone could read the whitepapers and invest a couple of hours in learning about how CN works - this isn't what the OP is asking though. He's looking for a 2-3 pager cheat sheet or something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9jOJk30eQsI don't think I've seen anything like this as of yet - it would be helpful for explaining the differences between CryptoNote and the reference Bitcoin transactions. |

Jesus, are we still flogging this dead horse?
Boolberry is perfect, I've said so from day one, it works brilliantly for google, is unique and friendly.
Just because some here think it should have a different name is no reason to change it. Some of the proposed names are just pretentious and too technical. We want this to work for the layman, not satisfy some small time investors wish to appear grandiose and out-of-reach.
This was settled ages ago, leave it alone.
Edit:
RUNE ?
For fucks sake, that's appalling.
Stop trying to be so clever, it puts people off.
Good point - oddball names work for tech companies. Maybe you should go start a Boolberry search engine but I'm not going to pay you Googles for it since that sounds dumb. |

Do we have a volunteer from the core team that would want to be on LTB? I feel that the key talking points will be tech related. For example explaining ring signatures in simple terms will be important as will comparing Monero against BTC, DRK, Zerocash/Zerocoin, ANC, BBr, etc, etc. I'd say that only someone with a strong tech background would be up to the task. I'm busy with relocating to Malla for the moment. But by mid-October, I will be available. I'll try and get something setup for then. |

i don't care about trolls, Fair Launch>No Premine>Well known devs so yeah i would buy more if i have more BTC.
+1. Monero has features that BTC doesn't and won't have anytime soon (as opposed to LTC, DOGE), it was launched as fairly and the devs clearly have a vision for where to take it. The fact that they were willing to bring in Peter Todd with the blocksize attack from a couple of weeks ago shows that they aren't shy from asking for help when it's warranted. |

How about adding Stellar?
Sure We are working on add Stellar, but since the currency symbol is taken we are re-coding the web to add disambiguation support Thanks for the update. I guess these collisions are bound to happen - it's what happens when there is no central authority issuing ISO codes. It's just unfortunate that it clashes with a coin that doesn't typically trade $50 in volume in a day. |

What is happening with this coin right now? I'm never seen the price this low. I want to invest but why are people selling?
Monero, Boolberry and Bytecoin are being dumped for Stealthcoin. It doesn't have the bloat. No thanks, we'll pass on that premined, weaksauce version of anonymity. Move along and sell to someone else, please. |

Judging from the rest of the members I think it will be Einstein, Socrates and the Bloodhound Gang. Meier, Planck and Hawking is already on board with the foundation so why not? Why are Newton and Plato getting the cold shoulder? |

I just read that Coinbase is declining transactions from Tor users. This isn't surprising, and just another example of the steady and relentless capture of the Bitcoin space by governments and regulators. It is pretty obvious to me that Monero (and other privacy enhancing coins) will become illegal in most places, and governments will try to prevent the transfer of funds between Monero and the legal economy. I guess it will be pretty easy for them to block fiat transfer, either in exchanges or in something like localmonero. It also seems plausible that pure crypro exchanges will be regulated, and prevent trade in privacy coins.
I'm not writing this as FUD or pointless rant, I'm a developer and have some free time, and would really like to hear any ideas on how can we mitigate this probable future..
Pretty simple answer - if you want privacy and anonymity, don't use coinbase. Quite honestly, coinbase & Tor aren't really compatible since the former requires full KYC information from customers buying or selling BTC. Will anonymous coin transactions become illegal? Under certain conditions in certain countries, almost definitely. However, like leaks in a dam, capital flows find the cracks. Short term, there's no way that authorities will shut down all of the crypto to crypto exchanges, especially considering that many are hosted in places where authorities don't consider crypto-tokens money or even property and thusly don't regulate it. Longer term, crypto to crypto decentralized exchanges will be needed as will cash fiat to crypto exchanges - that will eliminate the ability for authorities to stop flows. They can still do standard policing, but we've seen how well that works to stop protocols like BitTorrent. Decentralization is the answer. |

Lurking is so underrated... It should be impossible to make a new thread for newbie accounts with less than a week's worth of activity. My eyes would certainly bleed less. |
