Nice article. And excellent interface by the way, so much better than the previous one, which was quite terrible actually. Any expectations on when COSS 2.0 is supposed to be ready? wow this is what makes COSS prices up to 18% when all prices decline, it is extraordinary, COSS is able to become a top trading platform for crypto traders, come on COSS  True. But we will have to wait for the next bull market and for Coss 2.0 to be operative to see the volumes skyrocket and those dreams come true. |

Good research! Well imo this is cheating, the "real-name attestation" rule should not be abused by 1 person to create over 100X "real-name attestations" to get a significant advantage on the lottery. Someone should really check the validity of his "real-name attestations" which is obviously fraud. Anyway the "real-name attestation" rule is somehow designed to abuse it, should be deactivated as soon as possible and replaced by something else if needed. These attestations are valid. But looks like someone has a huge network of "friends" who are ready to sell their identities for a few bucks. Every distribution method will be abused to some extent. It was abused "to some extent" until it was just about the few bucks of the attestation, but now that it extends to the lottery worth GBs for thousands of $ the abuse is reaching a too high and not any more acceptable extent IMHO. Moreover, to accept this form of abusive behavior would surely encourage others to do the same. Now that it has been exposed, everyone knows exactly how to do that. And many would copy this trick. Do you really want this to happen? After a few draws you would end up with just the abusers taking part to the game. Those addresses are excluded from the draw. Same about a few more addresses with obvious signs of abuse. Well done! It was crucial to take immediate action so as not to jeopardize the whole operation and the team's image of integrity. Even if some in the community may disagree with some aspects of the distribution , marketing or whatever, nobody with a working mind would doubt the full honesty and integrity of Byteball's team, and it's essential that this well deserved trust doesn't get spoiled in the slightest. |

Someone should really check the validity of his "real-name attestations" which is obviously fraud. Anyway the "real-name attestation" rule is somehow designed to abuse it, should be deactivated as soon as possible and replaced by something else if needed. It doesn't really matter if that is technically cheating or not, morally it is and given the fact that such exploits are possible the team should immediately address this issue and avoid such exploits being possible or postpone the lottery and change the rules so as to guarantee it to be fair. Or else just lose another piece of community, which I suspect is NOT the purpose of this initiative. All the address that I checked via https://byteball.co/ and https://explorer.byteball.org/ show that these are unique attestations (user_id is a hash of firstname, lastname, birthday, country). So it is not 100% sure if it's 1 person, it could also be group of people who have made it their goal to have as many attested addresses taking part of the draw. What is funny for me is that when it would have happen with anonymous addresses then we couldn't even see that something is out of place, but thanks to real-name-attestation, we can see from explorer that these are all different people, but funded with 10GB by same person. Hopefully, if they win (would be epic if they don't), they also spread the winning amounts to all the people who participated in it by signing up with their attested wallet. If they don't, then it's more clear if it was one person with lot of stolen identities. But then again, maybe this one person keeps the bytes while rewarding the participants with fiat currency, we can't really tell. This makes even more clear what's the game here: someone has likely just used the IDs of all family members, friends and neighbours first to carve out of the system some money with the referral for attestation process and now for winning the lottery. This has probably happened in some poor country where people would do anything to get some money going through an attestation process they will receive a few bucks for even though they possibly know nothing about crypto. My guess is that it is 99% sure it's 1 single person, who is in control of all those wallets associated to people who likely know nothing about crypto and who have been just used by him for the attestation. If the team goes along with this situation and ends up rewarding this scammer with hundreds of GB they will not gain any adoption to the network, trust me, on the contrary, people may just leave in disgust. Especially as the scam has been exposed BEFORE it actually gets rewarded and so if the team choses to nevertheless reward it would end up endorsing such a scammish behavior. |

To achieve such percentages you must be a giant like Facebook or Google. And even so, most musicians understand nothing about cryptocurrencies, blockchain and surroundings, so to get so many of them that's pure fantasy. Crypto is a niche and one has to think in terms of niche.
And the musician does not need to know anything about cryptocurrencies... do you think that Visa and MasterCard users understand how this system works? Or all you know how to operate the video calling in Skype? All what Visa and MasterCard users need to be able to do is to take their card out of their pocket and hand it to the shop owner where they are buing stuff, something that anyone who has at least one hand is able to do even without a brain. As for Skype, all you need to do is to press a button. Now show me just one cryptocurrency which can be spent with one simple and single gesture - like that. Not to speak about how to administrate royalties on crypto-platforms etc. |

Seems people lost interest here. I assume they will open node registrations on Christmas as surprise. Just an optimistic thinking  That would be great!:) Things are likely to start to move again when node registration will open, but the coin may finally take off when the nodes will actually go live and there will be some evidence that they work well. SInce the'll require 2GB of HD space I expect them to perform some interesting task. |

I tryed to create an account with my email, for registering with the airdrop, but I get a message "An error as occured" and nothing happens. Your site is as bad as the GUI wallet.
What's wrong with the wallet? Just switch between tabs and you will see... The text from one page remains sticked and it shows on other page.
All these problems tells me: "not professionals! stay away!"
Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. The "An error has occurred" is from a false positive from a check we have on the website to make sure people dont try to signup for multiple accounts to get more of the airdrop. Usually the fix for this is to try another connection, like a mobile phone to signup. Once your signed up you can then login with any connection including a VPN. For the GUI wallet, we are aware that sometimes when switching from the account tab to any of the other tabs, it can get stuck, and show the text from both of the tabs. We have been aware of this for a little bit, but this bug was moved to the end as far as priority since some of the other issues were more important to solve, especially since re clicking on the tab will make the error go away. This bug will be fixed in the next release of the GUI wallet.
All this is good, but I did not see a mention of the nodes, the white paper says that to run your own node you must have 100 million xcash.
The question is, have X-CASHE developed the idea of private nodes that bring dividends to holders?
The proof of stake consensus algorithm is currently being researched and worked on in parallel. We have been working on this for about 3-4 weeks now. We plan to have the consensus algorithm built and deployed in Q1 2019. I cant really say much about the details of the proof of stake, but we will be releasing more on it as it is developed. Even though the wallet still needs improvement we all have to take into consideration the fact that as far as I know the team has built the wallet from scratch, unlike almost all other coins out there which have just forked existing wallets. On the long run originality will pay. |

Will never happen. Is a pipe dream, just like everything that comes out of this 2-man bowel movement. Nobody wants SV. How come you guys just don't get that? Craig's whole philosophy to his approach was, "We'll shove SV down everybody's throats by sheer force." Nobody wants to deal with someone so egotistical, mean-spirited and unhinged from reality. It creates too much unpredictability which is bad for business. Show is over, SV lost and will never be "the real Bcash." there's nothing left to see. I'm retiring from commenting in this thread. Since many people think that the current crash of BTC & surrounding has been ignited by this BCH civil war, and this could well be, thousands of people who as a consequence have seen the value of their portfolio drammatically shrink may now have developed some hate for those who have started that all. Does anyone think that hate favors adoption? |

So sv forked off ABC is now has BCH ticker. That's all. BCH has defended itself from takeover by corporation.
On plus side craig has his own toy fully centralized/permissioned and patented of course. Good luck for sv devs, followers, I don't feel sorry for you if get you scammed.
E-coin.
oh it was a hostile takeover attempt, if I ever saw one, what gave it away was them saying one thing and doing the opposite. Look over the statements of Roger Ver what is he is doing. Nothing surprised to see if they facing the same trouble to get survive from my point of view ABC and SV both are scam. Because of misleading the investors. Both should be forgotten and reach sh*tcoin price levels. After this kindergarten fight, they dont deserve trust. Now we can wait for the next episode of this saga, where both BCH-ABC and BCH-SV will split again so that we will have on one side BCH-ABC-DEF and BCH-ABC-GHI and on the other side BCH-SV-TSD (True Satoshi Dream) and BCH-SV-ESS (Enhanced Satoshi Soul). More episodes to follow. |

"If only 10% of the world's musicians use our platform..." as quoted from the OP, is a totally unrealistically statement. The same way I could tell: "If only 10% of the world's population believes what I'm promising them I will become the President of the World's Government."
The true problem is how to catch their attention and convince them to use the platform built by NEUMA team. It's very difficult task for the team to finish. To achieve such percentages you must be a giant like Facebook or Google. And even so, most musicians understand nothing about cryptocurrencies, blockchain and surroundings, so to get so many of them that's pure fantasy. Crypto is a niche and one has to think in terms of niche. |

@CryptoRobert the problem is not the staking, the problem is the development itself. I hope things change in the near future.
On this we totally agree. And I'm also sharing your hope of course, or I'd have already left by now. Let's wait to see what will happen after the winter, both the real one and the metaphorical one. |

40% of mining reward going to the team? Seems fair. But why not 100%?
Otherwise I'd say it would have appeared as a quite promining coin.

What's the point in receiving the airdrop of a coin which only reason to be is to be received as an airdrop?

I could be interested in providing the Italian translation of the ANN, if the conditions are good. OP is good, very promising.

Reminder
All bounty campaign participants who want to receive their JINBI tokens have until tomorrow 1PM (UTC) to register their email address. After this time, it won't be possible to do so.
WTF? Am I supposed to check their thread every second day even after the campaign is over? What the hell! I've been wearing their signature starting from May 20 till the end and now you are telling me that I won't get anythink because you've suddenly set a deadline to submit my email to get my tokens or I'd lose everything? No way! I've now logged in their website and submitted a KYC and I'm expecting to get the reward I have been promised or I will put everything in the hands of my lawyer. |

Is it for real or is it a joke? If it is for real I guess exchanges should provide support for the new coin. Is anyone doing that?
