something wrong with the goldcoin android app ?
There are no reported issues at this time. Are you having a problem? yes... i start the wallet (android app) and the window closes after a few seconds. i will try to reinstall the app ( i have a backup, do not worry ) but i thought that there is a new app version I'm sorry that you're having trouble with the Android App. Would you be able to make a thread in the support forum? https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?board=24.0The app's developer monitors the support forum daily. There is also information about the new app in that forum. |

What are some of your previous pumps and can we see some proof of this?
He could tell you, but then he'd have to shoot you. It's top secret.    |

I don't personally own or have any experience with POS coins, but my understanding is that staking is something that should be done in one's personal wallet. If you want to stake a POS coin you should download the wallet and put your coins in the wallet with a password.
If you have a problem or issue, opening a support ticket would be the preferred action as opposed to entering the trollbox and denigrating the exchange with wild accusations. I’m not sure how anyone would expect that type of behavior to go unchecked.
For the record, moderators do not have any involvement in exchange operations. We are volunteers who help out by trying to keep the conversation constructive, civil, and polite. Moderating is an imperfect science and human beings make mistakes.
Ironically, this thread itself has been moderated (expertly I might add) with numerous posts removed. But that's not a bad thing, it's just a needed device for keeping entropy at manageable levels and the dialog useful and productive.

A moderator's job is to try and maintain a useful level of ordered chaos while also being helpful. Sometimes mistakes are made. Sometimes people get mad. Occasionally, you stumble across gratitude. It all comes with the territory. Shouldn't have banned staby for asking why a ban has been placed on someone else,
I can see some in-house trolzoring in the making
Moderation is not a perfect science. Even though that ban was for only 1 hour, it was indeed an error on my part. I have read this thread and will use the posts here to make improvements. |

What is Goldcoin and how does it relate to Bitcoin?Goldcoin (GLD) is a cryptocurrency built using the original bitcoin protocol. It’s part of the class commonly known today as alternative currencies. It currently holds the top position on both Google and Amazon. Unhappy with the direction bitcoin core had taken after Nakamoto’s departure, the team at Goldcoin decided that, rather than complain about it, they would tackle the job themselves and complete the original vision. Satoshi Nakamoto referred to the term ‘gold’ numerous times in his bitcoin whitepaper, and his gold analogy is used frequently in bitcoin articles explaining the protocol. So what better brand could there possibly be for an improved version. Goldcoin is a top 100 cryptocurrency and is being deployed in West Africa, Ukraine, Canada, Germany, and the United States. Its 51% attack defense and Golden River difficulty algorithm give it the strongest most robust blockchain in cryptocurrency. Today, bitcoin and Ethereum are common names in the tech world, but the most popular digital commodity of tomorrow will be Goldcoin (GLD). Hoped this has helped to answer your question, and “may all your bitcoin dreams turn to gold!” ~~ Source: https://www.quora.com/What-is-Goldcoin-and-how-does-it-relate-to-Bitcoin/answer/Greg-Matthews-32?srid=udkP5

July 17h, 2016 Highlights Team Members Present: Four (Goldclub, MicroGuy, OneoftheFreds, and Akumaburn) Length of meeting: 2.75 hours~~ Please find a brief recap of today's proceedings below: Team Meeting on SkypeToday we held our weekly team meeting on Skype rather than Discord. Since the Skype platform seems more familiar to our members, we will experiment with hosting our team meetings on Skype for the remainder of July. Affinity Group ProjectAlfred Jordan (aka OneoftheFreds) presented his vision for advancing Goldcoin adoption by empowering 21 million people who are members of an affinity group in the United States. The team discussed the necessity for developing a business strategy that would pave the way for financing a collaborative project of such size and scope. New Android App The latest Android application being developed by Stouse49 and tested by the community should be available on Google Playstore in early August. This week, the beta version was updated to support the NGN exchange rate as pictured below:  Gold Club Project Gilead Okolonkwo (aka Goldclub) presented his vision for bringing Goldcoin education and adoption to West Africa through its affiliation with Gold Club of Nigeria. This week we will be looking into the possibility of having a physical Goldcoin created to be used as a collectible token. Decentralized CoreGilead reminded that as we look at raising money for various projects, it's important that Goldcoin remain independent and decentralized at its core. While like Bitcoin various dependent projects will be organized and built around its core, Goldcoin itself must remain autonomous and independent; its money supply fixed and unmovable. ~~ |

I just opened my wallet and got a connection then lost it. I sent 500 gold coins and it will not confirm since the wallet has no nodes. Can someone put a miner on this coin? Or what is going on I usually get nodes no problem. I can post txid infor if it helps..
The hashrate looks normal: http://gld.cryptocoinexplorer.com/ And my clients all have the maximum number of allowed peers (by default). How long has your client been open? I suggest giving it a few minutes to connect to more nodes. |

I'm looking for some ircs or slack or anything to see development of specific altcoins, I am having a hard time finding them, could anyone recommend some good ones?
btw, this could be coin-specific, just anything that is freely joinable.
I think following the chat on C-CEX can be valuable if you have good discernment. Some of the trolls there are wise beyond their years. ~~ |

It seems as though the orphan problem has improved drastically since last week. I've rented 4 rigs and have been mining at http://inetrader.com:8221/static/ for a few days now and there have been very few orphans (practically none).  I'm not sure about the performance of other pools. I'll point the rigs to some of the other dedicated pools over the next few days and see if the results are the same. |

July 10th, 2016 Highlights
Team Members Present: Four (Cryptosolar, MicroGuy, CryptoCanary, and Akumaburn)
Length of meeting: 1.45 hours
~~
Please find a brief recap of today's proceedings below:
Issues Related to Mining and Orphans
Our development team is still investigating the issues affecting Goldcoin mining production. We have yet to reach a consensus on how to best respond to the orphan situation. There are several potential ways of handling the matter, ranging from waiting for market capitalization to rise (which will increase network hashrate), to updating the code for improved handling of low-hashrate difficulty adjustments.
GoldClub Progress
A brief overview of Goldclub was presented detailing their plans for increasing adoption and advancing Goldcoin throughout West Africa.
Public Image as it Relates to Miners
There exists the perception that the Goldcoin team does no care about miners. This is not the case. It is the miners that breathe life into the network by processing transactions and advancing the blockchain. We discussed how becoming more sensitive to the needs of miners, while increasing transparency, could help to improve this skewed perception.
Improved Github Software Practices
While Goldcoin is indeed "open source software" there are still areas of improvement to be made regarding Github collaboration, bug checking, and general software publication practices.

can you explain the Goldcoin "time lock feature" outlined 2013 already a bit further? when i solo mine a block i see in debug.log "Local has found possible valid block... queueing until timestamp is valid" and the the whole client freezes, no more RPC requests are responded.. until "Median Time between blocks is: 124 ... ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED " so is there anything i can do against this? why cant i do "getinfo" etc.. does my pool software NOMP do anything wrong with the timestamps? or is that the principle behind it: if there would be a spike in hashrate ( 200% ), there will be 50% orphans ( as they all have to wait 45 seconds ) but how does difficulty then ever change? I've been looking at my debug.log and see lots of this:
ERROR: CheckBlock() : block timestamp too far in the future
ERROR: ProcessBlock() : CheckBlock FAILED
GetNetworkHashPS(120)
GetTrueNetworkHashPS(120) - modified lookup
best index = 114672
difficulty = 0.435018
hashrate for section: 14.901249 MH/s, time diff = 1385421655 min
====difficulty change at block 114660
height = 114659, difficulty = 0.445892
hashrate for section: 15.959102 MH/s, time diff = 1385414455 min
====difficulty change at block 114600
height = 114599, difficulty = 0.457037
returning hashrate 241.250000 MH/s, lookup 15 (time difference = -0.0)
Ok so server time must be out of sync right? Well:
ntpdate pool.ntp.org
26 Nov 10:30:55 ntpdate[8366]: adjust time server 192.189.54.33 offset -0.102237 sec
0.1 seconds out of sync... umm does this time stuff cater for timezone?
The default maximum wait is 45 seconds, but you can extend this if you want to for optimal acceptance rate. In main.cpp on lines 2094 to 2107 else if(QDateTime::fromTime_t(pindexBest->pprev->pprev->pprev->pprev->GetBlockTime()).secsTo(QDateTime::fromTime_t(GetBlockTime())) < (60*10 + 45) && hashPrevBlock == pindexBest->GetBlockHash()) {
//A valid block has been found but the current network adjusted time will not permit it to be accepted by other peers
//Thus we hold the block until GetAdjustedTime() is such that if(GetBlockTime() > GetAdjustedTime() + 45) is false
printf("Local has found possible valid block... queueing until timestamp is valid \n");
//Since we know that GetBlockTime() is greater than GetAdjustedTime()
//We sleep the difference
//Doesn't hurt to check twice
if(GetBlockTime() > GetAdjustedTime() + 45)
Sleep(1000*(GetBlockTime()-(GetAdjustedTime() + 45)));
/*while(GetBlockTime() > GetAdjustedTime() + 45) {
//We wait here..
}*/
}
Change (60*10 + 45) to (60*10 + X) Where X is the maximum amount of time you'd like to hold a block. And recompile. Not sure if this is the information that you need, but I found this recent discussion: https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=3617.0Feel free to reply to the thread linked or to start a new discussion in our technical forum. Thank you!  |
