Can someone provide some easy step by step instructions to mining Verge on a CPU? Is that even possible? I have a spare laptop that I'd love to put to use to mining this coin. I already own 300K and I'd like to add to that number.
This should help you. Verge and Doge are both Script coins and share a common root. You would do much better to buy a miner to get some real hash going on it, very profitable right now although I haven't seen a block all day!  https://zipso.net/how-to-mine-dogecoin-a-beginners-guide/Thank you I'm about to build a rig for fun and if I can mine a profitable coin, all the better. Sounds good! I updated my post to include the mining page on the Verge website. Im kind of partial to Script since I use Script miners but, there are many algorithms available, some better suited to laptops. |

Is there some release or exchange adding? Why does it grow so good today? Or may be this is natural growing?  Most profitable Script coin to mine right now, might have something to do with the increased interest... |

Patience is the key here. Whoever was patient since 2014 is already a big winner with the Cloak-Project.
Been there, agree with that! |

Hey Developers!!!!!!! What the hell are you honestly doing? You have a community of support and you can't even post a twitter,
a forum post, or acknowledge you are back from "vacation" and working, or if you are not working BE CLEAR. This is a joke.
Time to back off son. We have been with these devs for years and respect them for all the work they have done when this coin was all but dead. Lets not throw rocks just yet ok? |

Why isn't the team posting updates? Holiday was announced with a picture and a lot of promises, price tanked after the update, and until now still nothing?
The price dropped with everybody else, it did not "tank" and, it's holding at a respectable level. They will be be back when they get back, relax... |

It doesn't look like the government-issued cryptocurrency discussion is going to give us a break anytime soon. More major banks have joined a global central banks project called Utility Settlement Coin (2015). There is certainly some murky water in this proposal. "The platform aims to use virtual currencies that could be amplified by fiat currencies issued on the Blockchain." Amplified? I'm not sure what the meaning is in this case, but the fact that amplified can mean to make a larger amount of something, is a bit of a red flag. "The settlement coin will be a collateralized digital currency, backed by cash assets at a central bank, which allows us to transfer ownership easily through the exchange of USCs, thus reducing process complexity and the time taken for settlement." - What is the country/international bank in question including in cash assets? Government 'promise to pay' treasury bills? Short term loans they 'may' be able to collect in 30 days? An inflated balance from fractional reserve practises? And, once again, what's to stop the central bank of Venezuela or any other country, or any international bank in financial trouble, from claiming to have a lot more cash assets than they actually have and bloating the digital currency supply? The scariest part of all is - what happens when a system like this has a security breach? Whether it is backed by cash or not, the fallout could be catastrophic. Major Banks Join USC Project for Blockchain-based Cryptocurrency Banking - https://cointelegraph.com/news/major-banks-join-usc-project-for-blockchain-based-cryptocurrency-bankingWell, that has all the certainty of a Gordian Knot tied around an enigma. Yes, the chance for breach this early on in the tech is an unacceptable risk in my opinion. It's typical though, too much too soon. The Titanic comes to mind... |

Looks like they are providing a bitcoin mobile payment wallet (bitcoin m wallet), with a back end gift card system (KaChing) that can convert bitcoin to pay for goods and services. Interestingly KaChing is also providing token services, allowing users to create their own token and convert cryptocurrency / fiat / token. With a fairly wide variety of services, I'm not sure what exactly triggered SEC to get involved, but I gather the token creation service coupled with exchanging your token could be one of their biggest concerns. Perhaps the "fairly wide variety of services" is the trigger itself, too diversified, too many irons in the fire for a startup... |

[...] Vietnam is also a strong trading partner with China, and trades a lot with Thailand and Cambodia. A lot of the people in this region run their own family business, and don't have bank accounts. As cryptocurrencies become easier to use, and trading skills increase, I see this region of Southeast Asia as being likely early adopters. Interesting. I see all this leading to Gov't created, and sponsored, crypto in the future. It may take a long time but it will come. Which, I believe, is the main reason govt's are going easy on crypto now. They don't want to regulate themselves out of the game. When the majority of citizens are aware of, and comfortable with, crypto, I think there will be a "sea change" in the way we trade and use money. It would be fairly easy for those at the top of the power pyramid to simply mandate a schedule of declining reliance on fiat and increasing use of some government sponsored crypto coin. [...] [...] As far as a government issued cryptocurrency goes, it will never measure up to what can be offered by a global, decentralized currency like DNotes. They will never be able to govern with a fixed supply currency, or even one that grows at a fixed percentage as in proof of stake. The best they will ever be able to do is a centralized crypto/fiat cross that can operate like crypto but still gives them the power to control the supply - what's to stop a country like Venezuela from doubling their crypto bolivars next week? [...] I agree however, there are a lot of "sheep" out there who will do as told simply because they know no other way, this is the problem. Perhaps global is too far reaching but, regional is reasonable. It would be easy to "taint" the crypto ecosystem with govt sponsored entries that mimic real crypto but do the government's bidding. [...] PS: I'm not an alarmist or conspiracy theorist, simply someone who has analyzed many such scenarios and presented opinions on same. Just opinions after all... You've made some well thought out points R-J-F, and you might be happy to know that I disagree with you. But not with a great deal of confidence, because cryptocurrencies are so new that they are still anyone's game. But Chase's comment about Venezuela doubling their crypto bolivars, is the very thing that will prevent government success in the industry. If I wanted to, in Australia, I could obtain some euros and convince the man mowing my lawn to accept them as payment by offering more than the AU$ value for his service. He could then give his mate a few of them for fuel and bait when they go out fishing. This is possible, but rather inconvenient because many people don't want to accept the euros and will charge more for doing it if they do. But in Cambodia, US$ are traded just as often as Khmer reil. Often in the same exchange, and a combination of both are passed over. This is because most people have a bit of both in their pockets. I don't think cryptocurrencies are much different. Everything boils down to convenience and value. So if many people are comfortable with just a few of the top alt-coins by the time government tries to mandate the use of AussieCoin, people won't want to accept it and its value will reflect that. Because banning the use of particular cryptocurrencies is much harder than banning the exchange of particular fiat currencies, it would be very difficult to enforce use of a government sponsored currency over the popular one. On top of this is the fact that there are almost 200 different countries in the world. To work out how many parallel successful cryptocurrencies there will be in the long run, I like to look at historical indicators like how many different credit cards would most people be happy to carry. Or how many different bank accounts is someone likely to manage. Looking at these sorts of questions and how humans like to organise their life in other ways leads me to believe there will be less than ten mainstream, frequently traded for goods and services, cryptocurrencies when the dust settles. It seems really unlikely to me that any of these will be a national currency because the majority of people using any of these ten leaders won't want to use another country's government cryptocurrency. I really can't predict with confidence how likely DNotes is to be the one that makes it into the top ten for general use. But I am inclined to believe it is more likely to succeed than any government managed cryptocurrency. I can see you've been thinking about this before, so I'm interest to know how you relate to my perspective. And I still agree that we all owe future generations our vigilance and our bias towards honest value-adding projects. I am happy you disagree, a little discourse, now and then, is good thing don't you think? I can understand your argument and, I see your point and, I hope you are right, to a point, but, governments are well known for not following the rules, why would crypto be different? My grandfather used to say "There's more than one way to skin a cat" Why anyone would want to skin a cat escapes me but, the analogy works. I can see your point in western countries and those that at least profess some sort of "freedom" but, what about the rest? I'm a network engineer by trade, software engineer by design, entrepreneur by accident and crypto enthusiast by desire. I can tell you this for sure, don't underestimate what any particular government will do if it benefits those in power. And the technical argument against such actions falls down when you consider that anything created by man can be destroyed by man. We, at least most of us, live under the delusion that we are free. Nothing could be further from the truth. Most of us in the western world are "free" in the sense that we can move around, live where we want, work for whoever we wish, etc but, like the man who loves the single red rose in a field of white ones, we fixate on what is easy to see, on the surface, and look no further. In reality, most of our day to day actions have been pre-programmed for us by the nature of the society we live in and the country and values that formed it. In the US for example, if the government wanted to truly change the socio economic balance, would they come out and say it? No, they would manipulate society through the many arms of the media and industry to get their message out "under the RADAR" as it were. We would not even realize we were being manipulated and probably don't at this very time. It is not outside their capabilities make us like or hate something to produce an outcome that benefits those in power. BTW, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, just a guy who's been on both sides of the equation. Take for example all the crap between the Republicans and Democrats right now. How many people believe this is real? Most I'm sure. I offer an alternative reality, it is a "put on" (almost wanted to say "Trumped Up" but no...) It is designed to deflect our gaze away from the dying dollar, the crumbling infrastructure, the race wars, the north and south, the trillions of borrowed money, from China of all places, and everything else that is currently wrong with America. And we are not the only country involved. What this long diatribe is about is simply this: If the Government of ANY country sees crypto as a real threat, there would be a concerted, mainly subliminal, effort to poison it in the minds of the people, especially those who are not yet involved, as simple as flipping a switch and this is what we must remain vigilant against. Don't let them flip that switch, understand you can be manipulated and be ready for it, resist it. Realistically, perhaps the best way to prevent that scenario is for the good guys to beat them to it. To build the trust of the population and show them there is a better way. Too get everyone you know involved and teach them trust in the crypto infrastructure. If you fill a mind with truth, there is little room for lies. I absolutely loath the scammers, liars, opportunist and pump and dumpers in this industry. These people are the scum of the earth and need to be made accountable for their crimes and nefarious actions. They are the 747 on the governments RADAR and they are hurting all of us with their crimes. I know, "Wild West" rules of conduct, etc. But, that way of thinking does none of us any good. Each of us should do his or her part to weed them out and expose them as a service to the industry before bigger cops than us make some ugly rules we all have to follow. And in all this, projects like DNotes should be thought of as the "North Star" of crypto, something to be followed and gazed at. Something that will lead us to a better world. Being a leader does not always mean you have the most money or followers or biggest infrastructure, it means people look up to you as an example of what they aspire to be. Anyway, that's my rambling on the subject, your turn... |

Is everyone on slack or something? where are the rest of the bitbay community?
Yes. Sorry. We have been pretty busy. I'll try to make it a priority to be more here. This board is so busy the servers are over loaded regularly. There should be bitbay positions for a few people to keep the thread on page 1 here. That alone would be one of the most important positions in the bitbay team For features this coin stands out. It however is practically unheard of still. Posting on Bitcointalk is literally a chore for me lol... there's literally no reason to use a non-live form of communication in 2017 in my opinion. Maybe i'm just an ungrateful millenial  That being said we have discussed making this and the BitBay subreddit (which is growing quite nicely!) more of a priority in the future. That all may be true. However this is the jumping board for new investors. Bitbay has gone from top 50 to 150 in a couple of months. I would think that keeping this thread on page 1 of this board would get a lot more attention. If bitbay is as good as we say then all we need is attention. Slack is good but unless you are already interested specifically in bitbay then it brings no new investors. This thread and the main board really could do with more bitbay activity. Agreed. This is usually one of the first places new investors come to see the history of a project. Keeping this thread alive should be a priority not a second thought. Newer is not always better, live does not always trump static. If we ignore the new users, we are lost. I'm one every type of board, forum, slack, reddit, twitter there is but, when I want to learn about a specific project I've just heard about, I come here. This is the historical record. We really should continue to post here. |

I have tried the android application available on the playstore. it is a joke in term of security.
Some users even complain about missing tokens with a balance equal to zero, quite the lottery.
I will not put anything more than 10 bucks on it until it is more secure.
The wallet works fine. Used it for some ping pong transaction between it and the desktop client. It now has a simple password logging system so the seed only has to be entered once. It is always newbie accounts with less than 10 messages FUDding , a lot of jealousy around I guess. Byteballers are angry people. First, I did not mention that the application behave strangely for me but you can read the comments below the application section on playstore. You cannot imagine that I forged them with multiple accounts right? Second, from a security perspective, for example, there is just no password policy at all. You can creat very weak password (like single space) to protect your wallet for example. If you reply that is up to you to decide the complexity and lenght of password, then it is a dead discussion with a newbie that I will not follow. That is just one amongst other discovered flaws after 10 minutes of playing with it with no tool. Also I am working in IT security but hey see the reality... i have just less than 1k messages in your forum, so I am probably wrong right ? If you are talking about the desktop, Windows wallet: Addressing the password comment: Your seed is your password. You cannot access your funds without it nor can anyone else. I think 81 characters is quite adequate, even a little overkill, for a seed/password. IOTA may have issues but, security is not one of them. And you say you can use a single space password. Again, not correct, the wallet will complain if the password is less than the minimum required, 60 characters. If you are talking about Android, sorry, don't use anything Android, just asking for trouble. PS: I also work in IT security, the IOTA desktop wallet is not a risk as far as we know. |

There was no ICO for chips
There is no set aside for development
It is an ecosystem component and will act as a way to bring in many new markets into the komodo world as the LN and realtime gaming are not markets we were connected to in the past.
It is an old school PoW mining coin which was a pretty much direct fork of bitcoin 0.14
I didnt expect it to evolve into a 10+ peta hashrate so quickly.
"difficulty": 17000569.78940532,
I guess some people see promise in being able to play poker and other casino games for real money and then using JUMBLR. In order to maximize the privacy effect, JUMBLR is limited to KMD, so people will need to barterDEX into and out of KMD to be able to use JUMBLR.
Amazing. Very impressive work, thank you! |

I think it boils down to the ability to be honest, honest, real, hard working, and to separate items from other things that others don't have.With good business processes and skilled leaders, projects that thrive DNote have always had these, ergo, prosperity.
Good post Kendrick, could not have said it better myself! Oh wait, I DID say it myself! Quote from R-J-F August 25, 2017, 12:12:58 PM: "I think, in the end, it all boils down to a few things like ability, honesty, truthfulness, hard work and an idea that sets the project apart and fills a void that others haven't. With sound business processes and skilled leaders, the project should prosper. DNotes has always had these, ergo, prosperity. " |

There are just sooooooooooo many coins circulating. The price will never get high enough due to the number of coins. Nakamoto found a sweet spot with around 21 million coins. Check out -REMOVED- coin which also provides security over the TOR network, just with the correct amount of coins.
Pathetic FUD, pathetic marketing. Please mod for delete this. Thx Yes, the post is pure advertising crap. There is NO "correct" amount of coins. But, the problem is, people still think the number of coins is limiting when, in reality it is not. Might take longer to get there but, solid projects will produce high value in the long run regardless of coin count. Look at Ripple, over 38 billion circulating and over 99 billion total supply with a recent high of .44 USD. Ripple has many more coins then Verge and higher value. Might not be the best example but, there are others. Never assume anything in crypto. Consider what your holdings will be worth when Verge is .44 USD... |

I wouldn't be at all surprised if this move by the government in Vietnam is in response to strong public interest in cryptocurrencies in the country. And I really understand that. When we travel to Thailand, my partner and I often come back with a decent amount of baht on us. But when we came back from Vietnam we exchanged all our dong, despite knowing we'd probably be back soon. It is only a cheap bus ride over the border from Cambodia. The reason we got rid of the Dong is that it is volatile. In the last ten years it has gone from a US$ costing 16,000 VND to 23,630 today. That means a US$ costs about 50% more than it did ten years ago. Even if bitcoin sat level from when it started, never increasing in value at all. If you'd bought it then, it would be worth 50% more VND today. Add that to its record breaking year on year growth for an investment, and the Vietnamese are wise to set aside some cryptocurrency as insurance against national inflation. Vietnam is also a strong trading partner with China, and trades a lot with Thailand and Cambodia. A lot of the people in this region run their own family business, and don't have bank accounts. As cryptocurrencies become easier to use, and trading skills increase, I see this region of Southeast Asia as being likely early adopters. Interesting. I see all this leading to Gov't created, and sponsored, crypto in the future. It may take a long time but it will come. Which, I believe, is the main reason govt's are going easy on crypto now. They don't want to regulate themselves out of the game. When the majority of citizens are aware of, and comfortable with, crypto, I think there will be a "sea change" in the way we trade and use money. It would be fairly easy for those at the top of the power pyramid to simply mandate a schedule of declining reliance on fiat and increasing use of some government sponsored crypto coin. And, that will be the dangerous time for the industry because as you all know, government does not like competition. All the infrastructure we have built will be available and at their fingertips. In my humble opinion, it would be dangerous to think this won't happen. The question is, will it be good or bad? And will it foster more intra country trading and financial relations or will it hinder that type of cooperation? This is why what we do here, today in the crypto-sphere is so important. Do we pave the way for a new world financial order or, are we building our own gallows? Only time can answer those questions. I do see projects like DNotes as shining examples of what could, and can, be. Unlike men,not all cryptos are created equal. Each and every one of us should be taking measures to support honest projects that have real world value and resisting the urge to make a "quick buck" on the scams or near scams that pop up almost daily. Ultimately, we are responsible for ourselves, for our future and our children's future but we have a greater responsibility to the rest of the world as supporters of a new financial order so, lets steer it in the right direction as DNotes has been doing and, I'm sure, will continue to do. RJF - You should deliver this message to the forums of every "quick buck" coin on Bitcointalk (they need a 'little' guidance - LOL) As far as a government issued cryptocurrency goes, it will never measure up to what can be offered by a global, decentralized currency like DNotes. They will never be able to govern with a fixed supply currency, or even one that grows at a fixed percentage as in proof of stake. The best they will ever be able to do is a centralized crypto/fiat cross that can operate like crypto but still gives them the power to control the supply - what's to stop a country like Venezuela from doubling their crypto bolivars next week? I don't see the co-operation ever being there to have a global government-backed currency, even though they may try. When people finally understand what cryptocurrency is, hopefully they will also understand that a government based one is NOT a store of long term value, and therefore nothing worth investing in. I agree however, there are a lot of "sheep" out there who will do as told simply because they know no other way, this is the problem. Perhaps global is too far reaching but, regional is reasonable. It would be easy to "taint" the crypto ecosystem with govt sponsored entries that mimic real crypto but do the government's bidding. I can see this happening in the very country you mentioned and those surrounding it as well. Also, look at Russia. Yesterday they were "yea crypto! bring it on!", let the citizens have what they want. 24hrs later they are saying normal citizens will not be allowed to obtain or use crypto, only "accredited investors" What does that even mean in Russia? Only the elite and party members will have access if that statement stands. This could easily lead to the govt sponsoring a coin "for the little people" and so it will begin. Which is why it is so important for the rest of the world to watch and listen to their lawmakers and take action when someone lights that fuse. We need to be ready to put it out before it explodes but must not burn our own beds in the process. Not an easy thing to do... PS: I'm not an alarmist or conspiracy theorist, simply someone who has analyzed many such scenarios and presented opinions on same. Just opinions after all... |
