Just as important as a bounty is a clear technical summary that compares all of the leading anon coins.
Average Joe out there needs a clear conclusion which coin/s provide the best anon technology. Which is "most" anon and so on.
This takes time from someone who knows how all these coins work, perhaps only Dan can do it. But I think it will pay off. Sure it will ruffle some feathers but I think it's necessary.

Hey ,
I know we have much news today and the xc -team is very busy ,but is it complicated to build a 2 Fa Authentificator in the XC Wallet for more Security.
or you think is not at all necessary and secure enough ?
Interesting question. What's at stake is whether we want a decentralised authenticator or not. Do you want to rely on Google (or even us) for authentication? Alternatively a multisig solution could work (say, 2-of-3, where one is your phone, the other your PC, and a third a paper wallet in case you lose/break a device). Although I do use Google authenticator in a lot of places, a multisig solution would be much better imo. Indeed. The thought of having to regain access to innumerable services once my phone eventually breaks is a real concern. Multisig would sort this out. (In addition to the increased decentralisation, of course.) Reminds of this r/bitcoin topic I read recently: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2etbsx/bitcoin_authenticator_decentralized_2fa_and_next/ |

XCurrency seems heavily under valued to me. A lot of what XC has planned in Rev 3 reminds me of Maidsafe.
I see us ranking up there with Bitshares on coinmarket cap in the next 6 months (i.e. 15 to 20 times increase in price). The market loves innovative new tech and XC just keeps bringing more and more to the table.
And as a big XC holder I will definitely throw some of my holdings towards the XC team to further development when that happens.

From twitter :
KEY team has hired developer Dan Metcalf of XC for the ongoing Dev of our KEY OS. We're looking forward to more innovation! Thanks Dan!
wtf :/
Designing, Building and Securing operating systems is something I do for a living, and have been since the 90's. This was just a small project in the giant bucket of projects of which XC consumes the majority of. Being in business requires projects both big and small to be successful. I live, breath and eat, XC, all the time - and that will never change. It's a smart move on your part. XC is eventually going to be fully open sourced anyway. Helping another coin in a small way just further establishes you as the privacy coin guru and spreads the word about XC further. |

Is cointelegraph big as coindesk? never saw it before i keep tabs on coindesk and cointelegraph for all my news. coindesk is certainly larger and has more readers though So after much hard work XC has moved from pumpcoin, to dumpcoin, to a coin with credibility, to a coin that gets original articles on major crypto news sites. Next: more original articles on major crypto sites... and then some on major tech blogs. Onwards and upwards! P.S. Now you know where I've been lately. That, and having general gadget breakdown. Great work! |

Updates once or twice a week is good enough for me personally.  I always thought the daily update would be difficult to sustain in the long run. while i agree with this. to declare that updates will be given daily, and then not do it, is just a form (albeit minor) of over-promising and under-delivering. updates once a week are fine. updates daily are fine. but whatever they say they are going to do, do it. To be fair, the updates were pretty much daily for a long while. Recently the frequency of the updates have slipped. I guess Arlyn will comment further, perhaps he can change the title to just XC Update and give them as and when the XC team have information to share. |

Dan was on vacation and is now back at work.
Not sure about Arlyn.
I agree the volume is low but the good news it it shows how little buying pressure is needed to maintain the current price range. When we get our next pump it will take us sky high. Now is the waiting game and in the meantime please promote XC wherever you can.

I say down. It's gone up a lot already and the market cap is massive.
The next 6 months will be constant selling pressure from early whales cashing out. Basically a repeat of what we saw with NXT (not recently, more the trend since it launched in January),

Do tell how a rich list would work in an untraceable currency?
That said, you have ~1.3% of current supply. I'd argue whale.
Touche. I figured that may well be the case but I wasn't sure if it was a case of being very difficult or actually impossible.
My random friend, you are most definitely a whale.
And yes, everyone here sees it going 60+. You'd be insane to buy something like XMR if you didn't think it had HUGE upside in case of success.
I should probably post in the XMR topics more often. But I advertise XMR in my sig everywhere which has to help. What's surprised me about XMR is that it's proving to be more than a pump and dump. I attribute this to a continual flow of new investors due to word of mouth spreading. Here's to the future |

Is there a rich list for XMR?
I obtained about 40k back when this coin was still young, I'm curious if that makes me an XMR whale or a small fish.
Does anyone see this coin going back to 60+ price?

alts with..
any premine even 0.01%
any instamine (ninja launch, or instamine settings)
zero post devs
All = potential scams, which is what most are.
There are a few dev teams that just keep launching coins, pumping and dumping their premines and instamines and starting new coins. This will kill nearly all alts eventually.
This board is the main jumping point for these scammers to get a foot hold. The alt section here has now practically killed any chance of people taking alt coins seriously.
Take away these dev teams premines and instamine pots of coins and you will see a huge reduction in the amount of coins released. That little 1% premine they keep dumping is all they need to keep pumping this crap out daily. Let's reduce it to 0% and see if they're so motivated.
If devs premine AT ALL = all coins should be held by escrow and released to the devs over time for continued suppport and development.
Instamine settings switched off fully.
Some alts have a future but many will not.
There is room for more than just BTC.
You can't know then that Bitcoin was instamined for months by Satoshi. He was 75% of the network hash at times. |

A coin is claiming to have POBC
(some picture)
Wow nice draw but between a draw and the coding there is a huge work to do , technically i dont know if that will work like this. And for your information a good anon coin is going to rollback from RC4 to RC3 after month of coding and testing... I'm sure that Dan have think of all the future behavoir of this code before working for nothing , just my 2 cents. Really? I didn't know that. Highlights further what an amazing job the XC dev is doing with the encrypted chat and privacy transactions. |

Librex is claiming to have PoBC (proof of blockchian)  It's just a poster. Haven't people been burned by enough scam coins in the last 2 months that promise amazing tech and then don't deliver? And even if the coin has a legit developer (very unlikely), implementing that takes time. And if the dev isn't a top programmer he will screw up the implementation (see the various coins trying to do anon tech and failing for example). I'll wait for our team to implement it thanks. |

like i said yesterday, we are back to old price (140-150).. and everyone are talking about uptrend, but i we are at same level almost few months, so where is uptrend?? here is no uptrend, and it sucks.. after few more months we will be at the same price, and then everyone again will say "this coin is very young, only 5-6 months old, it need time and bla bla bla". rev3 will be realeased in autumn, and price level will be the same like now.. Im holder of this coin, but i cant understand how the price isnt climbing up at least, slow and steady..
We were stuck in the 80-100 range a couple of months back. Since then major alts like DOGE, LTC, PPC, NXT, DRK have ALL fallen considerably in price from their peak. BTC has also been pretty bearish, dropping 20% recently. XC has held it's value well in the current climate. I'm frustrated too at the lack of price growth but you have to look around at the rest of the market, it's pretty harsh out there. We have a top dev and team working here that has produced amazing things and with plenty more to come, I am just being patient and continuing to accumulate when I can. This coin is so different. I don't see any coin with this much dev skill and promise at this low market cap. All it takes is for word to spread and a couple of whales to get on board and the price will rocket. In the meantime, enjoy the updates. Also, rather than complain, what are you doing to help the coin? If everyone who complained actually got off their ass and helped with the project, think where we would be. It doesn't have to be much, just spreading the word helps. |

I feel for the people who invested money in 2013 and were told the project would be launched in jan 2014.
Dan keeps referring to that fund raiser as "small" yet didn't it raise more than 1000 BTC worth of funds over btc/ltc/bankwire?
If I was you Dan I would take a big chunk of Emu for yourself, IPO off some of the rest and make sure you do the original investors right.
There has been full transparency in the launch shedule and anyone who felt "cheated" were offered a 100% return of their investment or keep their investments in the project. Their investment has not vanished. They have chosen themselves to still be part of the project - even though it has been postponed alot (lets be honest). The initial IPO did not reach 1000. Does it really matter how much was fundraised? As I remarked Dan keeps referring to it as "small", when actually it was a considerable amount of money. I have heard the bank wires/cash transfers alone are > $100k. And unless people I know are mistaken, the total raised is over or very close to 1000BTC. Quite frankly I don't give a flying duck how much is fund raised, it just piques my interest Dan has an agenda of downplaying the contribution of the initial investors, when in fact they raised him a shit ton of money and paid his wages for a year. Noone had a reason to complain because their money was taken. Whoever wanted it back, even after the theft, got it back pretty fast.
No idea why you are talking about the theft, I haven't even mentioned it. So if someone thought, this all takes to long he got the money back and could invest in whatever shitcoin.
Not really. The deadline was pushed back again and again, with promises it was coming soon. Suddenly now Dan rewrites history and says in Jan there was a dramatic change in direction as if he made people aware the project would be delayed a year. The way the theft was handled was the fairest thing I have seen ever in the crypto world. I mean, noone could have really done anything, when Dan would have vanished BEFORE the theft. Noone could have done much either when he would have said "Sorry, but the money is gone". So the fact, THAT he paid back funds worth hundreds of BTC is a good prove that he is serious about the whole project (its one of many proves, but lets stick to the subject here).
I'm not questioning if he is serious about the project. Again, I have no idea why you're bringing up something else irrelevant to my post. That said, how do you actually know Dan has paid for the loss out of his pocket? If everyone wanted their BTC back, how do we know the end amount wouldn't be 450 BTC short? We don't. It seems a surefire bet that the Emunie market cap will rise a good amount on launch so if he keeps quiet and pretends to have covered the loss, no-one will ever know. I stress that is speculation and hypothetical. But in this community I trust nobody. Finally: If the dev of a great project/idea, that finally gets succesful and maybe even changes the world of economy, gets a piece of the cake, whats wrong about it? Dan works on this for almost two years now, from his own funds. As a good businessman, of course he takes a chunk, just like everyone else who makes an investment.
Now I'm starting to think you have issues reading/comprehending. Nowhere do I object to Dan making a good profit. I even said he should take a big chunk of Emu for himself. I certainly would. It will be interesting to see how this one pans out. |

What is Sunnyking working on these days?
Does he have a new coin in the works? Or any exciting updates to Peercoin/Primecoin?

Did the Cinni wallet ever get encrypted messaging working?

I think a second pump to match the last one is going to be much more difficult.
What drove the first pump was the excitement of Darksend, masternodes etc.
Since then we've had a wave of anon coins hit the scene, like XC with it's xnodes.
