That probably is him... thekidcoin did disclose in this thread that he was from Chicago. Also, see this tweet from the other former fluttercoin dev... https://twitter.com/TheCryptoEdge/statuses/485109169570054144

He refers to him as "Dave" which fits the above info.

My wallet got out of sync a couple days ago by maybe 100 blocks and I haven't been able to get on the right chain since. Right now I'm on block 95936 while http://chainz.cryptoid.info/flt/ is showing 95867.

I've tried deleting the blockchain and redownloading multiple times.

Good to know. Thanks for that.

Wish I could join in on the skype meetings but you always hold them while I'm at work.

If we ever get a new dev I think we should switch to POS/POT only. POW is causing issues and most people seem to like POS only coins better these days anyway. Obviously the staking time would need to be shortened a lot to keep the blockchain going. POT will also help keep the blockchain from grinding to a halt should there not be enough people staking.

This would also drive people who want to mine to the multipool which would in turn drive the price up.

I don't get why @thekidcoin comes out and says he's been on vacation today. He's been signing into this forum multiple times while on this "vacation". You couldn't bother to say, "hey guys I'm on vacation with the fam! Back soon..." He said he was working on new developments that would be released by now and he decides to take a vacation? Seems like a lie. So if you're going to lie, why not go for something more believable like, "my (son or daughter or wife or anyone else for that matter) had an accident and has been in hospital." Also, DON'T login to bitcointalk from your account during the silent period. Even if he just wanted some time off, don't go silent, just say something. Silence pisses people off, especially when they see that you're still visiting the forum.

On a side note, @thecryptoedge was a developer for Fluttercoin along with @thekidcoin. You can see on his profile that he is still listed as a fluttercoin dev and a founding partner of QTM.



This is interesting. @thecryptoedge and @thekidcoin didn't seem to get along as I understand from being in the irc and reading this thread. Here's a theory... what if one of the actual QTM devs puts the hidden block in the code. It gets discovered. @thecryptoedge hates @thekidcoin and sees this as an opportunity to use him as a scapegoat and decides to throw him under the bus.

Of course @thecryptoedge and @thekidcoin could also be the same person. Who knows what really happened. Oh well!

His twitter handle is: @IcarusGlider

I guess I opened the throttle early, because I used your method for getting in sync and then immediately switched listen to 1 and changed the connect to addnode last night. I've stayed in sync the whole time...

Don't worry about compensating bitember miners for their loss. They are on the wrong fork, that's how it goes. I also lost 250,000 FLT while I was solo mining in the first few days due to multiple forks at launch. I didn't cry and/or ask for compensation. This stuff happens and you must be paying attention when it does. Bitember has also caused forks in the past because of their huge hashrate.

This worked for me. Thanks for that ofeefee!

I hope the thekidcoin speaks up soon. If not, the community should fork this coin and remove POW mining. The network hash is so low that you won't even need that large of a hashrate to fork the coin.

Yesterday my daily payout was 4340 FLT which is over double what I was previously mining each day.

I finally switched from mining fluttercoin directly to mining at fluttercoinpool.com and it's going good. Being able to mine X11 instead of scrypt has been very nice as it's getting hot around here. Just received the first payment and it is larger than I was making mining fluttercoin directly. The multipool X11 shares report the wrong amount (about a third of your actual amount) but it still seems to be working fine. The dev says he's working on correcting that bug.

Hope to see more people move onto the multipool!

+1 they announce that it's working on twitter but don't update the multipool site with the port number info. It takes a second to add this to the website guys... I know you're busy. We're all busy, but if you're going to release something do it fully, not half-assed. Thanks! 

+1

Great timing for you then, the price is perfect to buy back in right now. Take a chunk out of that 580 Satoshi sell wall. I just did.

Go vote everyone, it's for a good cause.

Oh yeah, haha! Thanks!

Looks like I hit 3 proof-of-transactions yesterday?! Is this POT v2 in effect? I thought it didn't fork till after block 57,000? Also, how did I get two in a row 11 hours apart?

I just noticed I got a proof-of-transaction this morning! Cool. 

We already have this list of the top 100 ( http://agran.net/flt_getbalance.php?top=100 ). I don't think there needs to be a private club for the top 100 holders. I don't think we want this coin to be a coin of exclusivity, we want wide adoption. We should be making everyone feel welcome, whether they hold hundreds, thousands or millions of fluttercoins.

Flutter for all!
