1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think "iamnotback" really has the" Bitcoin killer"? on: March 07, 2017, 10:38:30 PM
I think he is really smart, but having great ideas is not the same thing as implementing them and facilitating mass adoption


Bitcoin has scaling problems that need to be addressed. Currently, iamnotback is not even on the Bitcoin threat radar.

I have not followed this closely in a year.... but I see the same thing as before. Discussion about various naming options

Augur has now completed the proposal stage. After the commitment stage is complete, Augur Stack Exchange will be born. Help by visiting the link below:

http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/106367/augur

Stack Exchange is great. Visit http://ethereum.stackexchange.com/ to learn why. Very few projects have made it as far as Augur has already with its Stack Exchange effort

It took a little while but I am happy to see the correct chain now with significantly more hash rate than the rogue chain.

Thank you Smooth and thank you to the miners and pools that switched quickly

I still see transactions occurring on the wrong fork:
https://minergate.com/blockchain/aeon/blocks

I wonder who is making them and why.  Have we heard from all AEON pool operators yet?

Thank you Arux and Smooth for your quick fix! Can you verify the current block height (799,150) and approx hashrate  (646,000 H/s)  of the correct chain ?

This what I see:

Code:
2017-Mar-06 09:48:09.453520 [P2P5]+++++ BLOCK SUCCESSFULLY ADDED

Are Chainradar and Minergate on the correct fork?

I don't know, sometimes they take a while to get up to date on these things. I have contact info for minergate and sent them the info but I don't for chainradar.


Thank you. You confirmed what I suspected. I appreciate all the hard work you have done for AEON. You turned something that could have wrecked coins led by a lesser developer into just a minor network hiccup. I look forward to seeing how AEON develops from here.

Speaking of block explorers are there any devs interested in creating one for AEON? I am sure many AEON community members would donate to that cause

9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: CHESSCOIN - 32% POS - COIN FOR CHESS COMMUNITY on: January 30, 2017, 08:09:33 AM
It had to happen eventually, someone started a "Chesscoin" that has absolutely nothing at all to do with chess.

(insert word here)coin

U are noob and should not chew this beautiful product out. This is a currency developed for folks with brains, it will broaden adoption of brain games across the globe pretty much like btc facilitated adoption of principles and standards of decentralization.

A noob profile calling a Legendary member a noob  Grin ... whats even funnier is I'm one of the strongest chess puzzlemakers in history.

www.zimbeckchess.com

A real "chess coin" would allow gambling (maybe payable to winners of private games on lichess.com) or mining for advancing tablebases or boinc projects or renting out the mining power for opening analysis. But just naming a coin chesscoin doesn't mean anything. I could name a coin baseballcoin but if it has nothing to do with baseball then what the hell is the point?

Plus, 32% is too much. The coin can't hold value if it inflates at that rate.

Nice to see another real chess player in this thread with some common sense. This coin was destined to fail. I agree with most of what you said (not a fan of the gambling idea because of the engine issue) and particularly like your tablebase idea (from an intellectual standpoint although I am uncertain it would work economically).

Okay, so if we're going to get Aeon relisted on Poloniex it has to have a website. Any recent progress in that area?

Many people have contacted them over the last few months--so they are aware. I ask every few weeks, just because you never know--I've also asked if someone wants to add an aeon depository on cryptokingdom as this would likely take coins off the market, as it did with XMR (currently ~1% of all monero are on cryptokingdom) and introduce a new set of investors to aeon.

I like the cryptokingdom idea for AEON

I've ported my offline address generator to Aeon:
https://github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-wallet-generator/tree/aeon

It's not yet on the master branch, because it's not well tested yet, so make sure you test you can recover the wallet with simplewallet before sending anything to it, just in case. Reports welcome, and I'll merge it to master if nobody reports problems Smiley

As usual, don't forget to verify the GPG signature, with my public key being in the Monero tree. See the second part of the wallet generator page for instructions.

Thank you very much MoneroMooo! Now there is an easy method for non tech savvy users (not wanting to follow/adapt for AEON the extensive XMR cold storage guides) to create cold storage AEON wallets.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ZEC vs ZCL, what makes one better? on: January 30, 2017, 07:55:36 AM
If you want to compare ZEC/ZCL compared it with BYTECOIN and MONERO

One is a scam the second a fork and see which one wins now ?



Interesting comparison but I think a 20% dev mining tax for 4 years (ZEC) is different than a 80% premine (BCN)

I prefer ZCL over ZEC and of course love XMR and dislike BCN

We can expect exodus integration at least before 2018 Smiley

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/5qy9f5/any_updates_from_exodus/

Market won't wait for anyone. I expect double the marketcap by the end of March.

That would be a very fast rise. Any specific reason why you believe this? I would prefer to see a slow and steadier rise.

16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [BBR] Boolberry: Privacy and Security - Guaranteed[Bittrex/Poloniex]GPU Released on: October 23, 2016, 05:20:36 PM

The critics - and there are only a couple - are people that have no ability to contribute to the code, no resources to mine, and I doubt their positions in Boolberry are enough to influence the market when their confidence wavers. The people that have any of those three things are pretty content with the direction of things. They aren't complaining.


You lose credibility every day by attacking your "critics". Anyone reading this thread knows it is far more than a "couple" who do not trust you. You have no idea if some of your critics have an ability to code, resources to mine or what their BBR market positions might be. You are the newcomer here and long time community members trust you less the more often you continue to make such false statements.

CryptoZoidberg absolutely has more credibility than you among this community so attacking him is not helping you either.

If you want to help, then create a worthwhile pull request and stop spending time here attacking long time community members.

They both advertise HYIPs to the uneducated, claiming to be a great "investment".

Which do you prefer? OneCoin or Dash?
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When will the market cap of Aeon exceed Dashpay? on: September 03, 2016, 02:07:23 AM
My wild guess is 9 months.

Aeon may not have to rise to anywhere close to the current Dashpay marketcap for this to happen. Once long time DASH users realize that Dash privacy features are severely lacking and not catching up with the competition, prices will start to plummet as masternodes get sold

I think the Aeon and DASH market caps will eventually meet somewhere in the neighborhood of 25% of the current DASH market cap (after DASH falls 75% and Aeon rises to that same valuation). This is just my wild speculation, so make your own conclusion.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: September 01, 2016, 12:24:11 PM

I believe the development team sometimes add features to Aeon first before adding them to Monero making sure that they are stable and useful.


As far as I know that has never happened and AEON is NOT a testbed for Monero. In fact in the near future it will be the exact opposite. Aeon will integrate stuff developed and tested in Monero (lmdb and GUI at least, don't remember if ringCT).

This project was picked up by smooth alone (after the former dev closed shop) and although there is some overlap in the community, the Monero Team has no official ties to AEON.





I agree that there is no official relationship despite the overlapping community and smooth as a developer.

However, Aeon improvement have already been merged in to the Monero codebase. Here is an example of a privacy improvement found and fixed by smooth for Aeon before it was merged to Monero


20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good coins to accumulate and hold relatively long to mid term on: August 20, 2016, 02:37:41 PM
I would removed ETC from the list and add XMR and DASH. At least one of XMR and DASH seem to have a good future.

What do you think about Zcash as a replacement of the both of them? I was also focusing on acquiring XMR the last couple of weeks, but I've heard that Zcash, when delivered as promised, might be a way better alternative.

Do some more studying and you may change your mind:
