Over 9000 sat, we might be headed for an all time high before the day is over. It is amazing what a community can do when it pulls together. We have the best devs, best community, and by far the best coin!

Indeed, and let's not forget that the multipool seem to have doubled his hashrate, so massive buy support tonight!  Cool

So 365 BC should more or less give another 1 coin per day per wallet

No, it's 1/365% per day so 365 coins = 365*0.000027397 = 0.01 coin per day

I dont understand PoS.  How can you get any coins if you dont already have coins?

you can only generate coins via PoS with the coins you already have in your wallet. If you don't have any blackcoins already see my post above.

Should I use a faucet?

If you're a miner, you can mine with us at blackcoinpool.com. Pays out daily at Midnight EST.

How can you mine if its PoS?

Jusdt mine any coin, ex: dogecoin, sell it to BTC and then buy some BC (BlackCoin). That is the way the blackcoin multipool do.

The best way to mine blackcoins is with the official pool. Blackcoinpool.com

In order to create new coins you simply need to hold them in your wallet for some time and allow them to stake.

In the case of BlackCoin, it will start to stake after about 24 hours in the wallet and will generate 1%/year or 1/365% per day

I'm still waiting to know if I'm eligible, is there a way to know who as been rejected?
966  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 30, 2014, 12:30:27 PM
why can't the wallet have an option to only be unlocked for staking but not allow for any transactions to be SENT? then ppl could leave their wallets unlocked to stake without worry of being stolen.
Good point we will try ask rar4 for that feature.Something like transaction password block

That is already in there. I have mine unlocked and can't send transactions without entering my pass.

Check again people. I just did, and not for the first time. No password is required to send from an unlocked wallet. And yes, I'm using the latest release (windows client). I brought this up weeks ago in a cautionary post, before Soepkip had his coins swiped, and then subsequently. For the future health of the coin and anyone owning it, let's tie up this loose end.

Just to follow up with a couple more details and confirmations on this.

1. If you unlock the 'new' way, via the <settings> dropdown, you're wallet is up for grabs. No password is needed to send out your coins.
2. If you unlock it old-school, via console, you will unlock for staking. It is a 'mintonly' command, fortunately. Tahnk god someone was thinking.
3. If you do #2, then initiate a send but cancel out before entering password, your wallet 'lock' symbol will close, but your staking light remains 'green' and mouse-hover will indicate you are staking.
4. If you do #1, then go back to the console and enter the command 'walletlock', same result as #3. (as someone else rightly pointed out).
5. Only remaining question is, for #3 and #4, is the wallet in fact still staking as indicated? I am waiting to find out. So far apparently not. But we shall see.

Conclusion: if you just do #1 and walk away for the day, you might have a very nasty surprise waiting for you when you get home. Even if no one has physical access to your computer, it can occur through a variety of exploits that someone gains remote access to your system. Then, my friend, you are most certainly fucked. Finally, if you don't already, consider using a password mgr. Among other things it will allow you to enter your long-and-random-as-fuck password without entering keystrokes. And be sure to keep a backup of your password database!
Thanks a lot! I wasn't aware of #4 option, I try it, will report if it still stake.

Ok I can confirm that #4 option lock stake too, the staking icon is green, but I do not receive any stake since I locked it yesterday.

Hey I was wodering something about ASIC. Since there is more and more scrypt asic, what about old SHA256 one? Is there good bargain on them? Since blackcoin pool also mine Sha256... How much BC per day with 200gh/s?

keep in mind that you CAN'T mine BC directly anymore, so if you're using a SHA256 miner on the multipools, you're actually mining SHA256 coins against other SHA256 miners, then trade those coin for BTC to buy BC.

using coinwarz  Tongue , for 200ghz, you're looking at around $14 dollars a day, or 0.02804BTC at current exchange's rate  Lips sealed

Yeah of course I know that I can't mine directly BC, was just wondering if SHA256 is now a better option than GPU mining, seems like they are about the same..

im gonna hold until we plateau around the same market cap as nextcoin

I didn't know NXT really well my first time with crypto were after last christmass. I looked at the NXT to compare price... did not found too much talk about price, just 1 guy selling 1 000 000 nxt for 1 btc... (was in the end of november.

Now it's at 5600 sats... so well hope BC will do the same in a such small time frame!  Grin

Done!  Cool
972  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) Fair & FREE Distribution | Pure PoS | No Premine! on: March 29, 2014, 03:23:34 PM
I just send an e-mail to mintpal support asking them to add CommunityCoin to their voting system. I don't know if I will be eligible yet to get the coins but good luck nonetheless!!
973  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 29, 2014, 03:11:58 PM
in the past i just made negative experience with craptsy , dunno if it will kill the coin or not..

I will not kill the coin at all, it kill crappy coins that are pump and dump. Since BC can't be mined anymore, it is far more safe.
974  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 29, 2014, 01:38:16 PM
The volume is worryingly low. The only action occurs when the market manipulators pump it up or dump it. When they go away the market just dries up and no trades occurs for sometimes 20+ minutes at a time. Expecting a downtrend soon when others catch on and start to sell off. 

Come on, 500 BTC/24hr is low?? And that is just for mintpal... There is not very much other alts that do this volume...
975  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 27, 2014, 09:28:00 PM
I don't want to bash the multipool, but me too I don't like the payout. It's very easy, go find a good doge pool and mine doge. It wil roughly give you 5000 doge per mh/s per day as of writing and convert it to roughly 100BC.


BTW I like the nuying opportunity!  Cool

If it go up really fast, don't forget that the inverse is possible too.
976  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) Fair & FREE Distribution | Pure PoS | No Premine! on: March 27, 2014, 09:19:56 PM
Posted on ecoiner, hope I'm eligible, because I really like the concept.. very very eco friendly  Cool

Count on me to vote, especially on mintpal when the time come!

977  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 26, 2014, 11:40:09 AM
I got all my blackcoin back and then some (2000 extra BC, to be exact). What worries me much is that blackcoin is losing ground more and more. I plan to buy back at 4000. Should not be long the way he is acting.

So it should be a great opportunity then.

Last week 4000 was high.


You guys are too nervous  Wink
978  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 26, 2014, 10:41:33 AM
Is it just me that can't get his miner connect to the blackcoinpool?

My failover to cryptoalts.com work fine.

And yes I tried it with a new bc adress
979  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 25, 2014, 12:40:09 PM
Yeah watch out fake buys walls (4-5 btc) removed at 8100 sats...
980  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC) | on exchanges | PoS | No premine on: March 25, 2014, 12:29:00 AM
I noticed something alarming:
The price of BC directly depends on one multipool being on. When BCmultipool is down, BC goes down, even if there are others multipool available (check what happened today between 15 and 16h30 GMT). This gives these guys at BCmultipool an insane amount of power. They could orchestrate a shutdown, get the money and stat the pool again.

I am concerned.
I was right. Sadly.

Now that the bcmultipool is down, the price stagnates. Those who invested at 7500+ are actually losing money atm. So much for triumphalist speeches.

Going from 5500 sats to 7700 means stagnate?? seriously .. 1650+BTC last 24hr on mintpal ...you call that stagnate...

I'm glad I sold out all my MINT.............
