It reminds me the pic about internet browers  Grin
So, BTC is like Internet Explorer, lol
Note: even if BTC is slow it's more popular than other crypto currencies

3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: CPU only/mostly coins? on: September 27, 2014, 11:59:20 PM
this launched like 3 hours ago, who knows what it'll turn into but the algo is cpu only at the moment. I'm sure there will be minerd, then gpu miner to follow in a few days you know how these things go, but for now its cpu only.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=775289.0
BSTY coin, yescrypt algo.
my 3930k at 10 threads gets like 800 hash per min..

That's what I really dislike in the coin when devs changed it from cpu-only coin to gpu mining coin.
IMO, if you've launched coin with cpu mining than don't switch to gpu mining .

you cant exactly control it, there was a host of coins like heavycoin and a run of new weird algorithms a few months ago, every one was cpu only until SGminer developers/forkers made it GPU mineable.  any new coins listed here will likely have a gpu miner sooner than later. it takes some variable to be harder than a gpu can handle that a cpu has no problem.. Ramhog used by the defunct shinycoin started up 16gb ram threads of scratchpad to keep itself cpu only while it lasted..  but its not a copout that a cpu mineable coin becomes gpu mineable though progress.

edit* add props to the other mining software devs asidefrom the SG team and those who fork them

also... having something cpu only for a start at least allows participation by cpu miners who otherwise would skip a coin.  i feel like this adds to a healthy distribution

I agree with the last statement about the possibility to join cpu mining coin at the beginning. Starting with cpu mining coin can attract people who dislike gpu mining and that's good for promotion
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [UNO] Unobtanium Info & Discussion - Current wallet 0.9.5 on: September 26, 2014, 02:00:14 PM
I remember my first UNO purchase about year ago, on coinex RIP Smiley, more than 2k for 2.5BTC, it was my biggest investment. Friends told me than that I am crazy investing in some new "made just to cover asics expenses" coin, but after a year community prove opposite. Strong development and good team.

Still have strong faith in it and wish all the best for community.

Keep it that way! (as I keep my UNO's)

Cheers!  Grin

I've lost about 1000 UNO on coinex, stupidest move ever. I tried not to think about it anymore, but 1000 UNO! Sad


Well, that is the difference btw good investor and bad investor. At first, everyone could think that you are insane and wrong to buy cheap coins, but after a long-term they would see they, actually, they were wrong to loose the opportunity to invest in the right time
5  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: digitalindustry aka kolin evans busted on planning a scam on: September 15, 2014, 12:14:47 PM
I must admit that after this thread the credibility of things he is willing to tell me are zero. But I doubt digitalindustry would be successful in his ponzi scheme as there is nothing new to the crypto currency world and if he tried he would fail.

I can tell a list of users here on the forum who has caused a lot of trouble from my point of view. digitalindustry is one of them, and the second one would be darkota  - I think I didn't surprise anyone with such statement. He is one of that users who write in a bold and use capital letters to attract attention and prove his words, that's better to use evidence to prove your point of view than write in a bold
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Ltcgear.com - Any experiences? on: September 15, 2014, 12:03:42 PM
Somewhere was said that, paypal has some limits, if those are filled, paypal as an option is removed untill limits fall off again and so on..

BTW, I have 619 farm$hares for sale, simiar to this, one share is 63kHash, this mean I have ~39Mhash for sale.
Share are transferred inside ltcgear instantly if you have registered username.

Where have you read about Paypal limits?? Still, I prefer BTC as a payment method  Smiley

Who help me:

Deposit Bytecoin to HitBTC Not to the account,Deposit 17million Bytecoin The actual to account 13 million,wallet Stuck??



I guess not. That would be weird that only 13m from 17m were stuck, wouldn't that? It could be stuck if you've send it separate.

How can you be so blind?

They just want you to believe Monero has community to make money on you!

If you happen to know any other XMR troll or sold account, share it with the community.

Ever since the account was created this user had dedicated to agitating the crowd making scam accusations.

The user claims to be a poor Chinese immigrant trying to study computer science and has repetedly asked for donations for different projects he said to be working on.

He has gone from being completely new to cryptocurrencies to asking funding for up to 8 different projects in less than 2 weeks. It would appear as if there is a trend with this user to search for altcoins that have recently been launched to ‘beg’ for donations. Donations where apparently issued to them in response to one of the projects, the address given to it not seem to lead anywhere at this point:

The user often claims to perform work (mostly php) while not getting paid only to find they have been scammed. Several times he has been unable to take responsibility for donations claiming he was the victim of yet another scam.

In the past the user has offered to sell their bitcointalk account.

He has been accused of being a scammer and carrying out other illegal activities through the forums.

It is important to note that Monero shill accounts seem to be highly motivated by finances.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blowing the lid off the CryptoNote/Bytecoin scam (with the exception of Monero) on: August 22, 2014, 10:27:11 AM
I have carefully read this publication several times and, you know, I’ve got the impression that someone is trying hard to impose upon us his point of view. Someone wants us to think in a certain way.     
   
 I’ve tried to look at the whole situation as a bystander and posted below there are conclusions I’ve come to: 

1. It's obvious that someone is trying to discredit the CryptoNote technology along with all the CN-based coins.

CryptoNote team has published official statement yesterday https://cryptonote.org/news/archive

Quote
Greetings to all the members of the CryptoNote community and those who are interested in the technology. This message is our response to the recent developments and speculations within the CN community. Before we get to the point we’d like to reassert our firm commitment to the long-standing philosophy behind CryptoNote. Everything we do is for the sake of technology, and we take great joy as we progress towards our goal.

The initial efforts at CryptoNote development go back as far as 4 years. Some great minds were involved in its creation. More than two years ago the first implementations of CN technology were unleashed on the world of cryptocurrencies and from that moment forward the community that was forged around our vision and values grew exponentially.

What is currently going on within the CN community hardly resembles the harmonious state of mutual respect and synergy that once ruled over the CN coins. Someone clearly is instigating hostility. Moreover, the CryptoNote website has recently been exposed to illegal access by malicious users, which is absolutely unacceptable. Some data stored on cryptonote.org have been vandalized and is now temporary unavailable until the internal investigation is completed.

Having thoroughly reviewed the situation around certain CN currencies, the CryptoNote team would like to issue the following statement:

• It is the official position of CryptoNote that our technology has been created to bring positive changes into the current financial system by providing tools that have never existed before. The technology is what concerns us the most. We are not to be distracted or misled by the speculative rumors and strongly suggest you to follow suit.

• CryptoNote is not a cryptocurrency and has not been designed to be one. The only CryptoNote currency that the CryptoNote team officially endorses is CryptoNoteCoin, which has zero commercial value and serves educational purposes only.

• We consider all the name-calling and finger-pointing that has taken place on certain internet discussions as inappropriate and harmful to further development of the CryptoNote technology.
Over the years CryptoNote has had to overcome a great number of obstacles but those striving so desperately to deter the advance of new technologies are doomed to fail. We are strong believers in the power of innovation and there is no way to stop the CN development.
Discussion thread: https://forum.cryptonote.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=265&p=883#p883

Do you see this bold text? Think about it.

2. Someone tries to cause distrust and enmity between Monero and other CN-coins. "Divide et impera" is an old maxim.
 "with the exception of Monero" in the subject of this tread proves it better than everything else.

The question is: who is that "someone"? I have some thoughts on topic, but I don't want to publish them until I have enough evidence.


Thank you for pointing out to the CryptoNote's statement. I do not understand why the waited so long to comment on the issue, but it seems that the guys are sometimes totally offline for some time.

The claim of whitepaper vandalization is approved by the recent research of two whitepapers. So I think I should agree with the CryptoNote's position. Someone is trying to destabilize the CryptoNote platform by discrediting each and every CryptoNote currency. What's more it's being done based on the invalid whitepapers.

I'm not saying that Monero is behind the scenes, but the "exception" is so outstanding that you can't help but notice it.

Has anyone tried looking into the whitepaper v.1 by the way?

yo fellas, been mining on extremepool until it crashed yesterday - had to mine solo for the time being.
...anyway, the point is - when I went back huge amount of hashrate was gone from extremepool. did you guys go somewhere or just mining solo as I did? just curious as maybe there is some good pool I'm missing out.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [FCN] Fantomcoin. CN based, anonymous. Merge mine with BCN, XMR, QCN, duck. on: July 11, 2014, 01:18:12 PM
c789, I'm wondering about your professional opinion about MonetaVerde. It is second CN-based merged mining coin. It is better Fantomcoin or not?

infinite emission seems somewhat questionable to me.

There was a huge buy today, and price has stayed around 50% higher than 2 days ago.
Now I'm starting to invest while it's so cheap compared to other CN coins.


what exchange are you using?

18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [FCN] Fantomcoin. CN based, anonymous. Merge mine with BCN, XMR, QCN, duck. on: July 01, 2014, 12:10:20 PM
What is the story with FCN? No activity on the exchanges. Should I dump?

i will hold it.

you never know how the exchange is going to end up. maybe someone is lowering price for pumping.

I may add Fantomcoin merge mining on my pool if you guys support it.



wow! that would be great! are you capable of something like this? from what i've heard it's no trivial task

Indeed be careful with laptops.
With that being said, I use a $600 gaming laptop, gets around 120hs using 4 of 8 HT cores.
Also has two 660Ms, though I only hash light stuff on them.
If you have cheap electric, you can grab a decent amount in a few months from mining! I bought it back before asics got so popular, and still run it on other algos.

I also keep two giant fans under the laptop and check temps all day, it's pretty easy on it, and energy efficient, around 270 watts at the wall max load which I rarely do.


are fans working on its fullest? i wonder if it would be more profitable (and not too risky) to mine on 6(7)/8 and tune up fans a little.
