Nice.

Some of our speedtests from the other night in IRC where we saw <1sec speeds half way around the world, bounty was put out for creating infographics.. We still put 10 to be super safe but we're literally at <1second most transfers. Feel free to spread these around and post them wherever.

Well this is new Smiley (for me)


My first view of this world: "Hey, it's decentralized, I've survived and battled big ddos' attacks for my sites, this world is decentralized so they'd have to attack a lot of assets".


Today's of view this world: "Oh...."


Pretty flattering on one end, and I guess I'm still noob enough to look at this with some awe, and what it means short and long term.

Someone is ddos'ing everyone (that's a pretty damn big effort, would have to be a group, a big one, no?) just so THEY can mine? Really? It's not to kill the coin, it's to get some of it?

fukt.

The exchanges fluctuating = the walls/volume overall is still a bit thin, 10BTC can take it in either direction pretty quick so I'd anticipate that often until more volume/other exchanges grab it. Then again based on all the surprises lately I'm just expecting the unexpected now.

crypto gonna crypto

I think I would take EAC much less seriously if the dev's had no stake in it from day one.  

Yes indeed, this is what confuses me about all this dislike of premining - why should people develop something and not get paid? I am happy that the EAC devs have skin in the game, and forsee an excellent future for this currency as a result.

Are you guys mentally challenged or just ignorant?
Dev holds approx. 750 000 USD of premined coins in hes hands.  He continues to ignore all posts asking what will happen to premined coins. He has not published any plans for it. There has been only one little giveaway.
Do i need to put pieces together for you?

You call that "getting paid" ? As long as he has not set any public plan for over 260 million coins hes holding, i call that "jackpot"


I seem to recall that bit coin was also premined in the beginning as are most cryptos coming onto the market lately.. One may have actually been totally premined  (QRK)  according to some people around the crypto community ..

I'll address this one last time here, with detail, then you guys can rip it apart 20 ways from Sunday however I will not be responding to any more accusations or hate regarding our structure or operations.

1. Feel free to launch a coin, don't premine it, see how much interest you get, see how much out of pocket you go, see how motivated you can get people, see how adoption goes.

2. Feel free to launch a coin, premine 2% like we did, give out 30-40Million like we did, and spend some actual hardmoney on it before hand. Then go tell everyone including competitors, all your marketing plans with the bounty's and the rest of the premine for over a year with full disclosure, see how far you get. Make it a public open book always updated with every days moves and what/where/how much/who is involved, then when sensitive things happen just put 'sensitive' there see how much scrutiny you get and how many more calls for open audits that will cause.

Better yet, what's stopping me from just hiding 50-100 mil through small fake tasks and bounty's and 40 wallets and a month, or wasting time with audits of audits instead of creating more value and assets.

3. Feel free to continue making accusations, and at the same time, seeing tons of assets perpetuating themselves out of the community for big bounty's to create stuff to make earthcoin more valuable, daily, in big quantities. Funny that, the bounty has become a huge ad budget and the end result of spending it, is more value to all involved.

Frankly we could have easily done 5-10% and probably not gotten much more scrutiny, but we still chose 2% and managed to get the brand this far in a week with a small portion of it (along with simple good business strategies), do you understand how valuable that is? 750k? If you were in our shoe's you'd walk away from this for 750k? Now? Oo


Unfortunately after more talks, we have decided that we will not be disclosing how and what we are spending inventory on other than what you see publicly.

In the last 10-20 tasks that we've bountied, we've reviewed them and more than half have been sensitive. We'd never tell the public, never want competitors to know, or anyone could absolutely stifle our growth and we'd invite others to sabotage us easily or model after us and be just one step behind.

Trust what you see, the 1000's interested, 100's creating assets, the millions already mined and given away, the fact that in order for us to stay motivated yes we want a vested interest otherwise this is just a clients project and I'm just consulting a potential huge operation for free.

I don't expect you guys to read 118 pages but I have already said that the team has money, we aren't hungry for our first big break, we've said NO to investors/funding (easy money) many times for this already, we could have walked away for a nice chunk of money to hand this all over already, we would rather be fishing than doing all nighters with forums, but we see a big great challenge and are enthusiasts of crypto in general. We want to create something real vs a fadcoin.

Discovery is a beautiful thing, been watching coins come and go and marking down all their flaws/challenges/ways we could be better when we launch, and I'm sure people are looking at us the same way for the next batch to come. We're doing things 'right the first time' and while I fully get it, opening the books silences all critics, it's brilliant but extreme and unrealistic for us to expect no big blowbacks from it, further scrutiny, and frankly wasting time to constantly try to justify ourselves.

I appreciate and understand your critique however it's time I finally say something with a bit of firmness and that'll be all from me regarding what/why we did things the way we did. No business out there has an open book on their spending budgets as they happen for sensitive moves with marketing or overall direction. So far the brand has been carefully crafted and every asset is top notch because we're attracting and recruiting the best of the best for stuff and paying accordingly for it or overpaying as the value has already risen a lot now.

Please continue to watch us in action to see more proof of our long term goals. I'm personally dumbfounded at how great the response has been and many could learn a thing or two for their own coin journey by absorbing some of our strategies instead of constantly being focused on a negative 'what if'. Try to think 'what if' this is for real instead of defaulting to scam no matter what explanation you get. Some of these alt's are simply going to make it, just by averaging and probability alone, and by the usual suspects re what makes a good company/project/team run.

Thank you!

Thats great!

Just as a comment... I would remove ecrypto.net from the main webpage. The site is down, and the creator probably ran out with our coins. Luckily just sent 100 for trying it lol

+1 good call, removed. No clue what to think of them yet, they left behind enough bread crumbs to potentially get caught redhanded so I dunno if they would be smart enough to just scam all coins and get away with it but I also wouldn't be surprised to see them try either.


Is there any way you can help squiggle with his/her P2pool test?  A few of us have been helping now but with no luck in finding a block

It's been suggested that we try to get lots of people throwing some power at it for a set time.



Juggling quite a bit here - see if you guys can simply message the pool owners or setup a time and start posting that time here as we get closer post more - can't guarantee it will work but I agree you guys should centralize it around a specific time and aim to attract as many as possible to hit it at once.

Some typo's and grammar errors etc. but someone just did a pretty good article on EAC.

http://cointrader.org/what-is-earthcoin/

Lot's has happened, will post an official update later in the day or tomorrow. We're on coinmarketcap, picked up by coinex.pw, tagbond.com, lot's of press, games, more tools, device apps are on their way, our growth is stable and steady (THANK YOU for not spiking then killing it on the exchanges, books are still a lil' thin and one big pumper can really make it fly then reverse bad so keep momentum going).

Thank you, back to PM's.

I am interested in setting up a p2pool for this coin. I have the wallet running and synced on my server. I have the p2pool code modified to connect with the wallet but am getting some specific errors related to the wallet version. I believe this will take some code troubleshooting from a developer to adapt this to work with p2pool. I believe this coin has potential and would like to make this work.

If there are devs out there who are willing to work with me on getting this setup, please PM me or join me in the #earthcoin irc channel to chat. Please let me know.

By a stroke of luck perhaps I think I've been able to alter the p2pool code and stabalize it for earthcoin. I do need some hashing power to test though and see if we can find a block. If anyone is interested in testing and seeing if we can get this coin working with p2pool, I'd love you have some hashing power thrown at the pool. Please pm me or join me in the irc chat and pm me there if you're willing to help.

Pls help this guy Smiley I'll give squiggie 50K to share with whoever helps him by the end of the day.

Website got updated with a cool game/educational 'who wants to be a millionaire' flash thingy Smiley Good job!

Check it out - scroll a bit - http://www.getearthcoin.com

If you want to redistribute the game it's two .swf files, one is a loader.swf which you put into your html/php/whatever, the other just has to be in the same directory and being loaded from the same folder level I believe.

Hello,

My name is Gustavo -  from Barcelona, Spain - and I am 28 years old. I have been developing websites for some years now but I discovered cryptocurrencies just a few months ago and got really interested.
I have been working for a couple of months on the localbitcoins version for QRK, publishing updates on the official Quarkcoin post on Bitcointalk.

I decided to port it to EAC as it's one of the coins I like the most and believe will grow in the near future. Website will be initially translated in 3 languages, french, spanish and english. I am working on a .po file so the community can help me translate it in other languages. The idea is to allow everyone to buy/sell EAC with USD/EUR directly, just as localbitcoins work.

Here is the screenshot I posted on the QRK post of what I have until now:



Coding for the QRK website is finished, I am still waiting for the graphic designer to give me the design so the design you can see is just for testing purposes. Website should be online in about a week.

Why I ask for donations?

I don't plan to take fees for transactions. I already had great support from the alt-coins developers and users and I think the idea is to make easy and cheap to trade EAC.

My EAC wallet for donations:
ea9LVFy1bB6kGijY39j5xaoY8Vu89hfzYA

My BTC wallet:
1EcPG7m4Rn4Md7auVNRtzrrqHfCD5ATd18

If you make a donation and wish to appear as project supporter on the future website please leave a comment or send me a PM. This project takes me a lot of time and is completely supported by users/developers donations. I am always opened to suggestions, critics or questions so please if you have doubts just ask me.

It would be nice to have the website translated in a lot of languages so if you can help with translation please send me a PM. I can’t answer all PM but I will take note of everything and contact you if needed.

Thank you,
Gustavo


9 donations so far. Total amount: 12301 EAC. Thanks!
^ Now that's what I call support!

How is Earthcoin going to help the Earth ?

Or did I miss the memo on this one ?

Hi NotNigel.

I am going to try to put myself in the worst critics shoes. "It's a crypto, must be mined, meaning ewaste, fail" and "right, earth, meets tech, lolol" and "Just another coin"...

We hear you. It seems somewhat hypocritical to try to put earth and crypto in the same sentence. To a degree, you're right.

It's so early in the game that we don't have a clue where or how big this will get, how much adoptability it will get, how much more hate it will get, how much resistance from regulators it will get... However if and when we get past all that we hope that we can use this to help both people and the planet, in many ways. Foundations maybe? Unified efforts to commit/contribute to? Simply helping somewhere remote? Way too many avenues to try to list them off - we don't have a concrete plan set in stone and that's one thing I've learned about this industry, is if you create a business plan = hahahaha good luck with that. We get pulled in a lot of directions fast, so far the simple response from the markets and the amount of people all working together is proof in itself that something is working on the people side at least for now.

Way too early to have that convo but glad it was brought up as good communities can do wonders for the earth and its people.

As a last note I'll leave you guys with a really cool link on how fast earth plus tech are merging.
- kinda scary but keep an open mind :: http://www.2045.com (watch the video)


Well, thank you for the reply. Yes it's unpredictable. It just seems to me that it's just another small piece of a giant technological puzzle which isn't going to stop at earth but is moving out into the solar system imminently. I don't see the technological changes to the biosphere stopping - Eric Schmidt plans to mine asteroids, one of the bitcoin devs wants a bitcoin blockchain satellite to keep it going, expansion is the order of the day.

Periodicity in the coin distribution is an interesting idea, a kind of season in what is generally a 24/7/365 resource acquisition effort for people living in more climate controlled dwellings, though maybe you run the risk of creating a destructive harmonic if you get the timing wrong.

Damn, you have great command of our language!

I think I'd like to get you to do some of our copywriting - bounty/interested?

First donation received. Total donation by users: 1500 EAC. Thanks!

Update: 2 donations. Total 1550EAC.

This is the news I was talking about Smiley

We gave Gus a nice bounty to start it off, and asked him to proactively ask for donations as well without being shy as this is something we'll all benefit from by having no fee's. The more easy ways we have for people to xfer fiat to eac the better. Please support gus on this.

I have just spent the last day doing the Portuguese translation. You can take a look here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=385540

I'll monitor the thread and let you guys know if I need recommendations for anything, I really love the way the EarthCoin community is shaping up. My address is eWpDWFLump555ocx4cfEhD3EYuyUj2MFup

Thanks!


Sorry I missed your message. Bounty is sent your way.

No more translation needed at this time.
