Here is a tally of the number of iXcoin transaction over the last two weeks.

184 tx per day including the block reward
47 tx per day not including the block reward

By comparison, Bitcoin has 50,000-80,000 transactions per day. 

We need to work on ways to increase iXcoin transactions.

30K IXC left to mine.

You can now see the finish line.

Even now, this coin looks completely unpredictable.

One of  a kind.

There are only a few days left before iXCoin reaches terminal mining.


Thank you all for participating in the iXCoin experiment.

@JohnnyBTCSeed - Some good points to consider, from my viewpoint counterparty may be a nice idea, don't know how much work would be involved in adding it, just doing that will take some time I haven't had.  We've got other priorities right now, like getting the best possible merged-mining code into GitHub, fully tested and then built into binary releases for all of you.

While Ahmed is @ the hashers united convention, I'm focused on making the changes required to upgrade ixcoin to the latest bitcoin core code 0.9.3.  About 1/2 way through the /src directory and still have all the files in the src/qt directory to-do.  So far the list of issues that need additional time to make sure it's correct is very small, other stuff like the language files will have to be regenerated etc. etc...  Bitcoin core is in a state of rapid flux, with lots of new code being pulled into its base now, its hard to keep up.  Yet that is what I've agreed to work on.  Think we all can agree this is an important aspect to IXC, that we stay current with Bitcoin Core code from here onward.   See the counterparty stuff constantly being brought up as a 'got to have', that maybe true, but I don't think it should be the main focus, at least for right now.

First Install the new client using the Win32 setup and get your blockchain up-to-date as well as install your wallet.dat file from previous versions.  Mine was originally a 0.3.24 wallet, then it was upgraded to an 0.8.6 version, either or seems to work just fine, at some point you might want to execute the -upgradewallet option when starting Ixcoin, this will bring all the internal wallet data structures up to the latest version.  The simple installer that comes with this release, does one more thing, besides just installing your new execuables, it also installs a registry key so that your operating sytsem knows what to do when you enter a URI into your browser.

Once the new client is installed on your system, simply click on the following link and enter your amount:

Those sell orders are gone.  Completely.

I just looked and there are now only about 10,000 total ixCoins for sale at any price on CEX.

Like I've said before - I think there are a lot of games being played on CEX.

It's over for this coin just close this thread

I'll post a pick of all my buys the last 3 days.  My first was on CEX for 21,400 at 4700.

The very next day is when the price popped to 6500 without me touching it.  Then I jumped on for another 24,000 up to 7700, then like 10,000 at 8,000 for good measure and soon after that someone else took it over 12,000.

So this big run was not really me.  It was mostly someone else.  I bought my blocks in one single hit without dragging the price higher.  The price should have settled within hours after I bought.

It's a sum zero game.  Just numbers.  It's just too bad I don't have more just numbers to throw around right now.  lol.

Just pushed it to 14,500.

Nice round number, eh?  Haha!


Edit:  If I didn't think doge was gonna double in the next 1-2 weeks I'd sell it all and push IXC to 20,000 right now.  Just for shits!

Check...your move, Mr. Smith!

I did and not much luck.  I think CEX has a lot of fake sell walls.  If true, it's a clever manipulation tactic.

WTF is going on with the price?

Someone really is trying to stop me from buying back all my iXCoins.

Someone keeps trying to outbid me for IXC.

Just bought that mofo all the way up to 7,700 Satoshi.  haha!

Bring it!

Shadow 7 Billion Dollar market cap $1200 per coin, Yes

They lied to us in College about free markets.  Markets are very much centralized and manipulated.  We have some freedom but nothing like what was portrayed in the economics textbooks they spon fed us.  Thank God I never had the money to ever buy any of those books so I didn't read a single Econ book, but the lectures did plenty of damage.  I lost more money in the stock market due to not realizing this fact [early on] than any other single personal miscalculation.

And you guys think people will just choose a different crypto to go with?  lol, I wonder why people don't do that right now, instead of using dollars?  Like use some unknown ShitCoin?  Or print your own dollars on your laser copy machine.

It would be so easy for any government to ban any and all competing crypto coins.  Without mass adoption those currencies would die on the vine.  What gives Doge, LTC, Bitcoin, etc., value is adoption and mass acceptance by merchants and the masses.  Digital currencies themselves have ZERO intrinsic value.  

No merchant on earth would ever accept an illegal crypto [which can be much more easily tracked than counterfeit dollar bills] and that's all that would be needed to kill any competing crypto-coins.  So the only coin(s) to survive will be the ones which are pre-approved by the government [and the banks].

Yet one more thing Satoshi should have seen but chose not to guard and code against.  

To win at this global game - simply accurately predict the coin(s) which the government, banks and corporations will back and put your money behind them.  They will do the rest and you will get rich.

What happens after that won't be pretty but maybe you'll be able to take your money out and live your life somewhere "safe".

At this point you can even show your Secret Private Key to everybody: it's now useless

Would you say that's a big problem for the big energy companies?

Can't you people see that everything about Bitcoin was designed [by Satoshi] to be in favor of the corporations and governments and against the people?  By this time next year, the people will be OUT of the mining business as the rich and elite corporations take over.  This is part of the design and could have easily been seen [and avoided] from day one.

Why can't people look and see the blatant evidence of ultra centralization, massive waste of energy and complete loss of freedom for the people?
