Ok guys so it turns out every time I sell my coins, the price jumps up.
I sold at 12k and was hoping to get in at 10k but you can see what happened.
I'm just going to give up on trading. I'm not going to buy spreadcoins anymore, I'll just keep my 400 I have in my wallet on my PC and keep collecting coins from bounties.
Hopefully the price goes down to 0.00003000 again and then I'll buy.

Here 54.77.37.133:41678

Thank you, I will add you to the list.

So we have 6 Fallback nodes now,
they will serve as last resort for wallets who have trouble connecting and synching.

Another 2 please... who is up to the job?

One left.

If e1ghtspace wants to take up the offer of a paid vps when he gets back to his pc, that's another one.

If he can't , I'll set up another on vps tomorrow pm (sorry, can't get to it before).

edit

Just goes to show, need those $$ rewards to kick people into action.
Ok i'll take that VPS. Smiley

aww man my school is having a lockdown right now
826  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 05, 2015, 08:14:35 PM
So 4 dev or project members have already volunteered to run a static full spreadcoin node,
and their servers are already up an running.

Anyone else?

What about you...

...Gladimor?
...Stonehedge?
...e1ghtspace?
...defunctec?
...ScamAlert?
...a-russo?

Would be great to get atleast 8 people on board.

EDIT: I will release a new wallet soon.
Sorry, I can't because my Mum and Dad would get angry at me for having my computer on all the time.

This doesn't make any sense, let alone dollars.

Well at least it's 100% PoW. Now that's what I like to see.
Anything new though? Ah well, hopefully we see a nice Pump in this lifetime.

Whats the point of a Pre-Ann if there's not going to be anything there? Like, AT ALL.
829  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 04, 2015, 08:23:55 PM
I am gonna release a new updated wallet soon, with new DNS seed, and updated list of seed nodes,
and new alert key.

So, who here is running a full spreadcoin node?

And how many connections do you on average get?

Mine has about 50 connections ATM.

I'm happy to run a full SPR node.  How do I do it? Cheesy

1) You need a server with static IP (D'uh)
 
Are you sure about that?
Because I have a dynamic ip and if I leave my computer on all day I get 100+ connections. Keep in mind this was back when Mr. Spread was around.
830  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 04, 2015, 08:12:43 PM
Looks like the spam filters are either working, or working too well. Sounds like the latter.


It most likely would have happened before the new server anyway, so I would say the former.
It was either his ip address or his email address, and we have a lot of ips and email addresses banned.



Why?
All fields were filled out correctly.
You should also tell georgem your email address (only the ending @xxxxx.xxx)

The idea for servicenodes is to create a platform for people to create things. All I see right now is us helping an old, clunky (40gb) service that we already have survive. So I guess this is just for the money.

The idea behind servicenodes is to "decentralize everything",
not "create a platform for people to create things"...
what do you even mean by that?
-snip-

Creating a decentralized search engine is too.


You answered that yourself. Smiley

By things I meant services. Spreadnodes are the nodes that host the services.

I just realised that the bitcoin nodes aren't going to work. If you use 2 ips for one servicenode will you need to download two BBs (bitcoin blockchains)? Because if not, the nodes can just point the incoming connection to a different node and they will never need to download the BB.
Actually there probably is a way.
832  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 04, 2015, 11:22:39 AM
If we are going to do this service, even if its on trial for 3, 6, 12, 600 months, I guess it should have a project name, like all big and important projects  Wink



Project Atlas, anyone?

 Grin

lol, and then maybe Kristov Atlas can be our speaksperson?

But wait, there is an important distinction: Atlas had to carry the world on his shoulders as a punishment,
but we are doing it voluntarily. So...

That's why I start all projects with "spread the .... something"
Spread some love once in a while, why not...

Spread the nodes.
Spread the punishment. No but seriously, how are the bitcoin nodes going to be validated?
So basically the only reason we're doing this is for publicity?

"Hey everyone, heres a servicenode service. We're going to help another coin that has less features than us survive, at the cost of 40GB of HDD space for everyone who wants to help"

The idea for servicenodes is to create a platform for people to create things. All I see right now is us helping an old, clunky (40gb) service that we already have survive. So I guess this is just for the money.
833  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MOTO] Motocoin on: May 04, 2015, 11:13:26 AM
I can run the bot on several good computers, an i3s and and 2  i5's...
would that create nodes?
Sorry I'm kind of busy I wanted to get the bot running... Haven't had a chance, there's a dll file missing and I don't have time to look for it now ...

What is the name of the dll file, I might be able to help.
Most of the time I just google it and I find my answer.
I guess you already tried that?
834  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MOTO] Motocoin on: May 03, 2015, 11:12:26 PM
no no my old man is a 71 year old comp science lecturer... I used to do drupal and graphic designing and so on, but I've gone back to Uni. to become a teacher instead. I prefer working with people, not computers... I mean, I need to communicate more with people...
lol its not Cadmium... Isn't Cadmium your man, though?
Its Quadmuim, yeah, he's my friend.
835  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MOTO] Motocoin on: May 03, 2015, 10:55:25 PM
don't know if my "programmer" at hand, will stretch his services for free, that far...

Are you talking about Quadmium, because he has posted in this thread before.
836  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 03, 2015, 08:11:11 PM
I like the ideas that are jumping about, no shortage around here!

Can we just release a working SN network first, then add these extra layers as we go?

Absolutely, it's just that we can't have servicenodes without atleast 1 service running on them, or else we can't have scores/kicking etc....

And all points to this:  The first service is going to be the running / supervision of a full bitcoin node.

Stay tuned.
Are they going to be mixing coins, or no?

Heheh, yeah...

No.
Too bad it's SHA256 I would have mined it, but I don't own an ASIC so I won't.
Weird that the ANN doesn't say anything about masternodes.

839  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 03, 2015, 09:52:02 AM
...
think of it this way, its the first test version, at some point when we have more than 1 service for the service nodes, i think the best course will be to let the service nodes decide what services they want to offer, and what services not to offer....

+1

My take is that we see if the first servicenode launch can include an automated / easy way for node operators to have a full bitcoin node start-up.

We have seen that bitcoin nodes can be tracked



Instead of starting out with a plan to verify if nodes are being closed down after they are launched, lets leave that as an issue that will be addressed at a future date. If people choose to shut down bitcoin nodes, then we can keep an audit account of IP addresses, and apply retrospective deductions in payments.

ServiceNodes can ping each other and we can create an audit log of up time of addresses from bitnodes and servicenodes.  The audit log does't have to be there at launch.

At first the the payment deductions will not mean much, but as services grow so will the potential losses. I personally would not want to risk that for the sake of saving a few $ on hosting costs.

This means we can launch at the end of May or start of June, with servicenodes and bitcoin full nodes. If people don't have a bitcoin full node service running (this can be part of the rating system, possibly) they will get fewer rewards, maybe skewed a little against them vs. what other nodes get?

I personally hate the idea of having to run a bitcoin full node. I really don't want to download 20GB. Please don't implement this idea. I don't see how a masternode can verify the servicenode's chain anyway. They can always steal the information from a website.
840  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (official thread) on: May 03, 2015, 08:41:04 AM
All looks great, so far, especially the BTC full node feature.
Wait, we're actually going through with this???
I thought it was just someone's idea.

Looks like its just under investigation.

If it could be done, SPR would get so much publicity out of it it's not funny.

An altcoin supporting Bitoin? The price of servicenodes would go through the roof.

But then if Bitcoin implements those features & users get rewarded for having Servicenodes/Masternodes then the price of BTC would drop considerably since inflation will increase due to more coins being created quicker without mining.

A lot of people have stored up big on Bitcoin so I wouldn't be surprised if those kinds of people would abuse the system, then a fix would have to be issued etc, etc.

To be honest Bitcoin is fine the way it is, I don't see any coins even worth $5-$30 each these days.

Litecoin was the only coin to even gain that much momentum but the ever ongoing fad in the crypto scene is the traders as you can't control them, Buy Low, Sell High, Rinse & Repeat, that is how the game is played until they move onto the next coin as nobody wants to mine outdated things apparently.

Or I misunderstanding the whole situation ?

On another note wouldn't that still be technically PoS but only earnable through Servicenodes/Masternodes ?

There has been a consistent downtrend in full bitcoin nodes.


https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/dashboard/?days=90

This proposal is not for bitcoin to adopt servicenodes, as far as I can tell.

This proposal is for servicenode operators to host full bitcoin nodes. Bitcoin holders wouldn't care much about the impact on bitcoin, other than those in the know recognizing that the security and stability of the bitcoin network is being supported by an altcoin.

and that is something that creates value!
I thought we wante setting up servicenodes easy, but now the user will need to download 20GB of blockchain from bitcoin? It doesn't sound so user friendly...
