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. |

If we're accommodating the running of a full bitcoin node and this costs $5/month in cloud server fees (I have no idea if this is accurate) and your servicenode receives say an average of 2 payments/day (770 max nodes to start) at 30 percent reward rate, or 120 spr/month, this could definitely work with a bit of profitability.
$5 in bitcoin= .0205/120 spr reward per month= .00001708. If the price of bitcoin remains constant and the price of spr increases to .0003 where it has been for a large portion of its lifespan, you would initially net $3.53 in profit/month per node.
But the cool thing with spreadcoin is, you are able to have more then one spreadnode on each ip address, so that means if you have 2 nodes, you receive $8.53 a month and 3 nodes would be $13.53/month. |

Would requiring servicenode operators to operate a full bitcoin node disincentivize users with larger holdings from dumping into the market? For example, it may be resource restrictive for someone with 50000 coins to run 2-10k nodes, so they opt instead to cash out their holdings for say dash, where they can run multiple masternodes for cheaper.
Why not have a two tiered approach.
Option 1: run a full bitcoin node with a fixed number of spr, preventing nodes from ever going offline while not capping the total number of bitcoin nodes in existence and allowing servicenodes to continuously receive rewards.
Option 2: dynamic servicenodes for users providing less resource dependent services like instant transactions, private messaging, etc. Allows for greater ease of setup than masternodes (run multiple servicenodes from the qt client with the click of a button). This market would likely dictate that the cost of doing so is higher than running a bitcoin node but would be a strong incentive for newcomers and bagholders alike to maintain a strong position in the coin.
Well if it ever comes to the point where running a Dash masternode is cheaper than a Spreadcoin servicenode then that means Spreadcoin has overtaken Dash. Why would you want to invest in a dying crypto?  Also, if you didn't know, in Spreadcoin you can have multiple servicenodes for cheaper. So I don't really know what you're on about. |

It's quite the predicament.
I agree with ocminer that more pools will come to life if the price of spreadcoin keeps rising.
At the same time I wouldn't like the promotion of any pools in the OP, we need promotion of solo.
But I feel its only ethical to make it 1000% crystal clear that there are pools, that work.
Yes they work as long as everybody plays nice, and doesn't try to use the protocol rules which are in their favour (or not - in the case of the pools) Thats not true george, the pools work like all the other pools - no one can steal anything, just some adaption was needed and done. No, Mr. Spread said that you will be able to steal from the pool and claim it was the miner. This "attack" will work if everyone believes you. |

This looks pretty good.
Note: I previously advertised Helium in this comment as “what Spreadcoin should have been”.
I very much regret that and would like to apologise.

I plan on having my own implementation of a service ready for testnet by end of this month.
Stay tuned.
Awesome, looking forward to it! The website tooks great btw, the only thing I would change is the "fork me in github" banner. I would move it out of the way of the links on the left. I don't know if this happens on PC, but on my iPad the banner overlaps the website links. |

Shadow_Runner how the hell do you get here so bloody fast?!??? (I just managed to beat you by 1 second)
Anyway, Congratulations Georgem! Well done on the amazing new ann.

Ok, just 25 more minutes to release everything else.
You were 1 second off! Try to make it exactly to the minute second on the new thread. That'll be cool. |

Ah here we go!! It's 10pm right now, I guess i'll browse 4chan or something while I wait. Oh, heres something to read while you wait, can you spot a retarded mistake in this email?  Edit: Ok heres the mistake: It says at the top ## Please type reply above this line ## and at the bottom it says "This is a noreply email address." |

Not bad... it looks like you carved it out of 3D wood...  Oh yeah, and then painted it purple. I didn't really see that before. I am going to try to work on creating a 3D servicenode (oh yeah, smartnode does sound pretty bad). Why not try to create some coins? Dashrain4  you can download it here in UHD resolution for free: ...... Alright, I think that'll be pretty easy to make. |

 Wonder who owns that? (not me) Thought it was Georgem. But I am pretty sure i'm wrong. Edit: Here is a PM from Mr. Spread. (it was a group message) georgem has registered spreadcointalk.[org/net/com] and is going to make a forum and e1ghtSpace has already created a forum but on a different address: http://spreadcointalk.site90.net/I think you can cooperate on the forum so we will not end up with two different forums. We will need some styling especially if will use "simple machines" engine so that people will not get confused where they are - on bitcointalk or spreadcointalk. Edit 2: Oh wait, I can't read, that was spreadcointalk... You can buy it cheaper on the actual website.  |

well I am also a MOTOcoin holder. Maybe we can change the name of MOTOcoin to PLAYcoin though, no? Also the design I am making now looks super hot so far, it will be finished ina week, including 3D logos and stuff. Otherwise yeah if we can't rename MOTO and give it a facelift and new website as relaunch, we may as well start the other coin...
They changed DarkCoin to Dashcoin, perhaps something like that could help MOTO too?
What do you think 8?
Kitty? BTW you guys just have to see this it looks so awesome lol
I just really don't want to continue on with Motocoin. I know some people here are big holders of Motocoin so I can understand why you don't want us here, but if we do make a coin that people are mining a lot more, wouldn't you at least want to join in? |

I am now slowly switching DNS servers to point to my new server for
spreadcoin.info
and
spreadcointalk.org/net/com
so over the next say 24 hours you might have problems accessing these pages...
until the DNS caches worldwide are updated...
Best don't access these pages at all for the next 24 hours....
stay tuned.
Ah cool, and how soon can we expect the new ann? Can you PM me before you post it? I want to be on the first page. |

Hey I'd like to buy a copy. I sent a friend request. Says you were online one minute ago, don't tell me I just missed you. Dang it ! all copies were sold today sorry  Aww man, well... Better luck next time I guess. Is there a chance you can get some more? |

lol well what was the website created with... Sure I could tweak the old site for us, add images, etc... Also I think I should make several graphic redesigns and the player should have an option which to choose from, like little MOTOcoin mods lol... just overwrite the image dir, etc. give some instructions... Yeah, HunterMinerCrafter was going to make the graphics switchable at the press of a button but he dissappeared before he did it. You can edit the site here: https://github.com/motocoin-dev/motocoin-siteBasically everything motocoin related is hosted ln github, even a bot. |

Give me till next friday :p I will make several samples of each!
The website though I think needs some CSS transitions, and also the website is very dark and dismal. Maybe something like a vivid blue and some turqoise with green letters? To give it that grass/ sky kind of feel. Something more outdoorsy and less dark...
You sound like you want to design the website.  I'm sure it will be easy to modify motocoins website to suit and since it is open source, everyone can help. |

so it will be PLAY coin? as in MOTO / BTC / PLAY? What should I make the logo of the name? Do you have an idea for a logo I could 3Dify  . I think the game should have an artistic atmosphere and style, the old MOTO is barren of any visual appeal whatsoever. Games are meant to be eyecandy, lol I think the rocks are also hideous. They should be a more saturated colour and pattern, and the background should have a single sky image stretched over it, perhaps a twilight gradient with some stars in it, higher up... anyways I'll see what I can do, for fun I have a nice idea to create a nice 3D animation loop for the logo... don't make me design a website, omg. Going back to drupal... uuugh! Yes the "ticker" will be PLAY. The background sounds awesome. I had a look at the game.cpp and I found the code for the sky. The sky moves with the motorbike. And no, you don't need to create a whole website. We can clone motocoin's. Maybe you can make the O in playcoin a tyre? Just giving you some ideas, although that was probably a bad one. |

well its a nice idea yeah but I mean what would i get out of it?
Do you need some graphics or something?
I'd love to mine some in the beginning, for sure.
Its a very good idea, though. YEs I want in!
I could make a nice 3D logo if that would help
PLAY coin, mmm Good name, too.
Motocoin should be toted to Motorola though.
I guess you could make some BTC. I'll see if Quadmium (a friend) wants to help code it. It shouldn't be too hard. We just need an update to the graphics, maybe a nicer bike rider. That orange looks a little dated. Here are the images needing an update: https://github.com/motocoin-dev/motocoin/tree/master/src/game/imagesA 3D logo would look nice btw. |
