1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Louisd’or(codename)- first anonymous PoS, CN-based currency (technical review) on: December 09, 2014, 01:31:24 PM
Hello!
I’m glad to announce our project, that we were working on last weeks and keep working on. This is CryptoNote-based currency with first anonymous PoS engine(that use PoW as well).

CN based POS!?
Finally!

Создание новой криптовалюты, ТЗ - конечные функции в наличии, нужно мат модель, архитектуру. Оплата хорошая. Подробности в ЛС.

Имеется идея и ТЗ, нужна архитектура и код.   Если крайне кратко :  в существующий протокол (или протокол написанный с нуля) криптовалюты вплести новые функции. Интересный проект,  задача нетривиальная, просто взять и поменять переменные в коде существующих валют не получится, требуемый функционал еще нигде не реализован.

Контакты - лс. Знания поля криптовалют обязательно, опыт разработки и управления проектами обязателен. Работа на фулл тайм, оплата поэтапная.

Если под данный проект найдется финансирование, есть конкретные команды тех, кто сможет это реализовать?

Так думаете?) Мне кажется, что и площадок подходящих нет, да и путаны не принимают биткойн в оплату.

Только вчера читал, что в Голландии появились проститутки, принимающие биткоины.
Так что возможно все еще впереди)

Да, я бы принял такую позицию, что возможно все впереди, только вот опять же вчерашняя новость снова повалила курс Биткойна  http://ria.ru/world/20140127/991638281.html

По сути, автор демонстрирует, несостоятельность биткойна...
Это он просто неудачную площадку для поиска поставщика услуги подобрал  Grin

По сути, автор демонстрирует, несостоятельность биткойна...И это действительно так, из-за высоких скачков курса он крайне неудобен, поскольку создается огромный риск потери своих денег. Будущее за валютами с меньшей волатильностью.
Но пост крайне интересенSmiley

Hi!

Does someone who lives in Japan buys Novacoin?

Does someone choose NOVACOIN for investments instead of Bitcoin or LTC?
13  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin was bought for the first time? on: June 29, 2013, 11:51:51 AM
More than likely the seller didn't care about losing a pizza. What are they worth? a few £/$ or what ever currency you handle. But, think of it. 10,000 Bitcoins sounds a lot. Even if they weren't worth much back then. It still sounds like a lot. Well let's put it this way. 10,000 sounds like it could be more valuable than a pizza. Also, the pizza seller probably knew that Bitcoin was going to be popular among geeks. Which would make the value of it rise. So he probably knew he had a chance of cashing it out with a little profit. But, obviously Bitcoin has become much more than he hoped for. It is popular among non geeks and high up professions.

At the currency going rate of 10,000 Bitcoins. A pizza sold for $966,000. Is that a world record?

In that case he had to count that he would sell BitCoins or will exchange them for something. What gave to him such grounds? What facts? Prevalence among geeks? But why them to buy his Bitcoins, they can just mine it)

The pizza transaction was an artificial construct where both parties perfectly well understood that at this point in time there was no market for Bitcoin. They have colluded to create an artificial transaction using newborn currency in which they both believed (because anyone with a brain after reading the paper could see that it is and genius and elegant system that could work).

They have artificiality bootstrapped market for trading goods and services for Bitcoin by demonstratively performing the first public transaction of this kind. The rest is history.


So why did they think that this artificial transaction will be important?

A we can see here http://newlibertystandard.wetpaint.com/page/2009+Exchange+Rate  ... befor the pizza BitCoin alredy had price. So why some one started to give money for bitcoin?)
15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin was bought for the first time? on: June 29, 2013, 09:13:23 AM
It was not "trading electricity cost for BTC". It was scientific research, trying whether the system works.
Probably on computers running anyway. They just generated BTC while doing what they _wanted_ to do anyway, building and using and testing the system, out of curiosity and believing in the idea, not because they thought "that BTC gonna be worth my power cost". They just generated BTC in the process of figuring it all out, and afterwards, they had something other could not copy without at least a little effort.

But there is still no answer.
Okay if we think that they did not spend electricity  why someone started to BUY those bitcoins?) And then gave something real for bitcoins?

Right now I feel like I'm writing your paper for you  Undecided

Oh no ) While those who participated in early transactions won't tell the word,  it is difficult to make it.
17  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin was bought for the first time? on: June 29, 2013, 06:39:02 AM
The pizza purchase was not the first transaction to assign monetary value to BTC, by the time that happened (2010) it was already well established that BTC had monetary value.

People were already buying/selling for nonzero dollar values in 2009; lacking a true exchange with order book, the bid/ask was usually based (rightly or wrongly, you decide) around the marginal cost of generating new coins via mining.

2009 pricing history:

Thank you!

Unfortunately I couldn't find participants of the earliest transactions with bitkoin yet. (bitcoin for dollars, bitcoin for goods and services).

But it is tiny nuance.

Why the first miners decided to spend electricity and to get bitcoin?  There has to be a reason why they decided that these expenditure are justified... that is a question Smiley

why he believed is the same why anyone else believes it first time. everyone supporting or simply using bitcoin went exactly through the same thing as the first guy. at some point you simply see it as a valuable innovation while no one knows exactly how much single unit values precisely, every single trade is either confirming current 'established' value or rediscovering new one.

Yes, and it is interesting - why it estimated as "a valuable innovation"? Smiley Also someone were ready to give for bitcoins real goods or to render a real services.

Yes. Everything is right! ... but there are many things become rare on the Earth (Old cans for exaple). But nevertheless, he chooses to receive Bitkoins for the pizza. He could exchange this pizza for a tail of a squirrel, or shit of a whale or images of someones fingerprints (this is also rare things)Smiley
But, what attracted in idea of bitcoin not in idea of ... ?

None of these other things are 'scarce'.

The person who accepted the Bitcoin believed that it would become valuable one day.

Yes! were there reasons to trust in it? were there preconditions? Why he belived?)
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin was bought for the first time? on: June 28, 2013, 02:45:24 PM
Dont forget that BTC are limited, in a way well known.
By selling the pizza for 10000 BTC, he got somethign which he knew would grow harder and harder to obtain.

And, besides, probably the main reason is, he liked the idea.
You might think a free and unregulated currency is a good idea, and support it by risking the amount of 14$.
Or its just playing with science, like "whoo, how does this work, lets try it, it costs less than an evening in the cinema!!

Yeah, if you are interested in science and crypto and intrigued by the idea of it all, you take BTC.
If your are instead interested in cans, drinks, old drinks etc you might as well trade a pizza for an old can, and it eventually establishes as kind of currency among your fellow can-fascinated friends, before some of those start actually buying old cans for fiat, thus making them valuable for everyone else, too. If instead you are a hunter, and get hot on animal parts, maybe some day one of your fellow hunters is in need of some pizza, but has no money with him, and you offer to buy a pizza if he hands over those couple squirrel tails from todays hunt. It starts as a kind of joke, and you risk not that much at all, its a funny idea, but it evolves, and suddenly more and more stuff is bought via squirrel tails in your group.

As it happened, i really appreciate the guy being a nerd and not a hunter, storage might have become quite an issue with squirrel tails.
Not to talk about the time transaction verification would take for cross-continent payments.


So do you think it was just an interest?  he could mine some bitcoins...for free... with out pizza sale. Why he decide to do this? Why firsе miners decidet to mine bitcoins? Smiley
