2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / c4n10's Alt-Coin Creation Service - Cheaper Than Hazard's!!! on: June 04, 2013, 12:34:25 AM
Want your own alt-coin with no real innovations, just some basic changes to the base parameters?

Get the same service you would get from Hazard (changes to block time, difficulty re-target value, block reward value, total coins, etc...) for 1/5 (20%) of the price!!!

Hazard's service costs 0.5 BTC for these basic changes, I will do it for 0.1 BTC or equivalent in any of the alt-coins listed below!!!

Not only that but for just 0.02 BTC each I will let you add basic features to your coin like bonus block rewards, custom block rewards (rewards based on block size, current difficulty, current network hashrate, etc...) and more!

All purchases will include custom-built genesis block, github source code, linux binaries and windows binaries.

I accept payment in BQC, BTB, BTC, BTE, CNC, DGC, DVC, FRC, FRK, FTC, IXC, LKY, LTC, NMC, MNC, NBL, PPC, PWC, PXC, RUC, TRC, WDC, and YAC.

Pay half up front and the rest upon completion.

Delivery within 48 hours.

3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / The Truth About Hazard's Altcoin Creation Service on: June 03, 2013, 10:49:56 PM
If you're giving Hazard anything to "code" you a new coin, you are being ripped off.

All he is doing is editing 6 lines of code that a n00b using google could figure out how to do themselves. He is copy/pasting coins and doing little more than changing a few different numbers and then asking for payment for doing so. If you are paying for him to do this, you are being ripped off.

He knows what he is doing is bullshit too, hence the reason his thread is self-moderated, so that when you call him on his bullshit he can just delete your comment and no one will ever know as evidenced below -

8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [ANN] 0pticoin (0TC) - Release Date: May 15, 2013 - Postponed ~1 month [ANN] on: May 05, 2013, 06:30:20 PM
****UPDATE: Release has been postponed for ~1 month (see below)****



    0pticoin is an experimental Litecoin branch and it is intended to be a "sandbox" environment to test building my first alt-coin and is a pre-cursor to my final intended product - the "Advanced Parallel Crypto eXchange System" (APCXS).

    As this is my first build of a new coin there aren't any ground-breaking code changes and borrows most of it's existing code from Litecoin, SmallChange and JunkCoin, but new features will be added as I develop them to test viability and optimize final settings for release of APCXS.

    Along the way, changes in the code may force me to create new forks of 0pticoin at which time I will release them as their own coins with their own changes and optimized settings until I have reached my final intended product which will then be released as APCXS.

    The features for version 1 of 0pticoin are:
    • ZERO pre-mine (Genesis block mined on testnet)
    • rpcport = 9707
    • listen = 9708
    • testnet = 19708
    • Maximum coins: 75,000,000
    • Block target: 90 seconds
    • difficulty re-target: once every ~30 minutes

    Increased rewards for the first week:
    • Day 1: 100 0TC per block
    • Day 2: 50 0TC per block
    • Days 3 & 4: 25 0TC per block
    • Days 4 - 7: 10 0TC per block

    • No rewards for the first 1,000 blocks (This is to allow users time to review the code, download the client and get it installed/configured as well as to allow the network time to adjust to the initial network hashrate)

    • Rewards are cut in half every 700,800 blocks.
    • Every block has a 1% chance to generate x2 block reward and a 0.01% chance to generate x5 block reward.
    • Initial difficulty will be ~0.25
    • Proof of Stake implementation
    • [Allow mining at decreased difficulty if time since last block is greater than "x" minutes

    Release Date: May 8, 2013 @ 6pm GMT (server time)

    Source: TBA
    Linux: TBA
    Windows Binary: TBA[/list]




    UPDATE:
    Alright, this project is going to require a bit more time. The scope of this project has become bigger than I originally expected.

    I am working now with a small team of IRL friends and based on the past week's progress, we expect to be ready within the next month but I do not want to set a deadline for fear of missing it again, I do not want to ruin this project entirely by continuously giving false deadlines.

    If any experienced C++ programmers want to join our team we would happy to welcome you on board (no cut/paste programmers please).

    We thank you for your patience and we apologize for the inconvenience (again).
    9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [POLL] Alt-crypto currency exchange (trading) sub-forum...? [POLL] on: April 29, 2013, 01:37:08 PM
    'Sup crypto-peeps...?

    I am making this thread specifically to gauge community interest in a sub-forum for people to trade their alt-coins for other alt-coins, games, bitcoins, whatever...

    I think their would be enough interest that if enough people speak up and voice their opinion on the same thread that maybe one of the mods will notice (they actually do a pretty good job of reading most of this crap most of the time, lol).

    The reason I am polling for interest is because I believe this would be beneficial for the community cleaning up "[WTS], [WTB], [AUCTION]", etc... threads out of the Alternate cryptocurrencies section as from time to time they can become a little overwhelming in their numbers (I know, I am guilty too, part of why I wanted a solution) but I also think the community benefits from being able to trade the coins they own that currently aren't available in exchanges.

    Even those not trading benefit from not having to look at trades mixed in with the regular threads that contain valuable client information, pool information, new coin announcements, etc...

    Really the only useful information the trading threads add is a general idea of exchange rate and opportunity to trade alt coins for alt coins, games, bitcoins, whatever...

    I think think the best solution that benefits the entire community as a whole would be either adding a trading sub-forum here in "Alternate cryptocurrencies" or adding an alt-crypto sub-forum to the "Currency Exchange" section.

    So, those are my thoughts, please share yours (and don't forget to participate in the poll!)...

    Thanks for reading...
    10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [AUCTION] 140 BTE for BTC/LTC/PPC/TRC/NMC/DVC/IXC/BQC/RUC on: April 20, 2013, 11:30:45 PM
    140 BTE up for grabs going to the highest bidder by 4:20am server time.

    Bids accepted in: BTC, LTC, PPC, TRC, NMC, DVC, IXC, BQC, and RUC.

    All bids should be made in-thread (please don't pm me your offer).

    Also, if you are able to provide me solid, new, background information (with references) about Dzhokar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev that I am currently unaware of, or provide photos of them at the Boston Marathon which I have not yet seen, I will count your bid as double it's value.

    So, if it's in the mainstream media, on vk.com, 4chan, reddit, liveleak, twitter or youtube I have probably already seen it.

    BONUS:
    I will count your bid as triple if you can find a way to make me able to read all tweets made by one or all of these accounts:

    @xXjungaXx
    @Kid_Wavyy
    @DamnItGIO


    SUPER BONUS:
    I will count your bid as QUADRUPLE if you can get the tweets made by these accounts before they were deleted or find their new accounts:

    18  Bitcoin / Wallet software / "APCXS" - Official Development Thread on: April 13, 2013, 07:30:53 PM
    "APCXS - Advanced Parallel Crypto eXchange System"

    tl;dr is at bottom, skip to next bold section

    I was originally typing this in response to another thread about an alt-coin (not going to say which one) which appears to be in it's death-throes, but as I was typing it I realized it was a good idea (in my opinion) and decided to actually put together a dev team and try to make it.


    Looking around the forums I see coins with a lot of problems and I have had some ideas as to how some of these problems can be solved. Most notably however seems to be the alt-coins which are being attacked by ASICs users.

    It seems to me that the most viable solution for any existing coin being attacked would be more forks of that specific blockchain, perhaps working on a tiered system. Picture this:

    Code:
    We have coin "A".

    Coin "A" runs on an unlimited number of parallel block chains, they are unable to interact with each other.

    Let's say for this example coin "A" has 2 separate blockchain forks.

    User "IAmTheBiggestAssholeInTheWorld" hops on blockchain #1 with his brand new Avalon. Making the chain unstable and nearly impossible to mine
    for anyone who isn't holding ASICs.

    All other users then migrate to blockchain #2 and pay a negligible fee to "money-changers" who have coins on both chains to have their coins
    "moved" from chain #1 to chain #2. (Realistically you are forfeiting your coins on chain #1 to someone who will provide you the equivalent
    amount in coins on chain #2)

    You can add forks as needed and "move" your coins (via the money-changers) between forks as necessary.


    Alternatively, for new coins (not sure how easy it would be to integrate the following on an existing coin) what I believe would be the best solution
    for any crypto-currency would be the following scenario:

    Code:
    We have coin "A".

    Coin "A" Runs on 2 networks (one for mining and one for transactions).

    The transaction network is where the user's balances are stored, spent and received. It has a single "blockchain".

    The mining network has multiple blockchains which are "tiered" by hashing power.

    For this example coin "A" has 3 tiered blockchains.

    Chain #1 limits the maximum number of submitted shares (found blocks) from a single user in a given period of time so that it is only viable for being
    mined by users with 100 *H/s or less hashing speed. Anyone with a higher hashrate would just be wasting shares.

    Chain #2 limits the maximum number of submitted shares (found blocks) from a single user in a given period of time so that it is only viable for being
    mined by users with 500 *H/s or less hashing speed. Anyone with a higher hashrate would just be wasting shares.

    Chain #3 limits the maximum number of submitted shares (found blocks) from a single user in a given period of time so that it is only viable for being
    mined by users with 1000 *H/s or less hashing speed. Anyone with a higher hashrate would just be wasting shares.

    You can add new tiers with higher demands as necessary as technology advances and hashrates increase.

    When you find a block on your respective mining network and it has been confirmed the mining network would notify the transaction network
    and your balance would be updated respectively.

    In that same fashion when you spend/receive coins the transaction updates the mining network and your tx is added to the next block in the
    chain.

    Obviously, these ideas are not all-inclusive and there would need to be multiple security redundancies to make sure that all tx's on the transaction network are processed by the mining network and vice-versa when a purse balance is updated on the transaction network to make sure that the tx was actually processed by the mining network before adding or removing coins from a balance but I believe it can be done.

    I would also like to incorporate a feature which RuCoin has that if someone on of the chains should gain 51% control of their tier the network would go into a defensive mode and would begin accepting blocks from each chain round-robin style (chain #1 finds a block, then chain #2, then chain #3 and repeat until the user no longer has 51%). In this fashion all the "attacker's" blocks would be rejected by the network at least until it was that specific chain's turn to find a block or until the "attacker" reduced his hashing power or left the network completely.

    This should make the coin friendly to ASICs, FPGA, GPU and CPU users alike while also providing theoretical 51% immunity because the network will adjust to users with high hashrates rather than try to fight them, fast and reliable confirmation times due to a reliably consistent block generation rate (due to rapid re-targets preventing any single chain from stalling for an extended period of time due to dramatic loss of hashing power, dramatic increases in hashing power from a single source will be capped by the "defensive" mode and traditional "long rounds" are eliminated by multiple chains with varying difficulties) as well as a few other features I have in mind.

    If anyone is interested in helping me to create an alt-coin with these features I would be more than happy to team up and have a go at it...

    This will be done entirely in the public eye. There will be no pre-mine (all testing will be done on testnet and/or unofficial blockchain which will never be used by the official network). We will make an official announcement here in the forums with the official release date with plenty of notice so that everyone has the same opportunity to begin mining it at the same time.

    I also have a few other ideas for the coin, some borrowed, others my own original concepts, contact me if you have relevant knowledge and are interested in creating a dev team...

    EDIT: Basic Details/Features of APCXS (begin tl;dr):

    1. Separate networks for mining and transactions
    2. Multiple blockchains with separate difficulties on the mining network tiered by hashrate limitations
    3. Reliably consistent block generation (tx confirmation) times
    4. Short confirmation times
    5. Rapid difficulty re-targets
    6. Tiered approach makes this coin friendly for ASIC, GPU and CPU miners alike
    7. Users are automatically enrolled into the proper tier based on their hashing power
    8. 51%, double-spend attacks and difficulty attacks are theoretically eliminated

    mined by users with 500 *H/s or less hashing speed. Anyone with a higher hashrate would just be wasting shares.

    Chain #3 limits the maximum number of submitted shares (found blocks) from a single user in a given period of time so that it is only viable for being
    mined by users with 1000 *H/s or less hashing speed. Anyone with a higher hashrate would just be wasting shares.

    You can add new tiers with higher demands as necessary as technology advances and hashrates increase.

    When you find a block on your respective mining network and it has been confirmed the mining network would notify the transaction network
    and your balance would be updated respectively.

    In that same fashion when you spend/receive coins the transaction updates the mining network and your tx is added to the next block in the
    chain.

    Obviously, these ideas are not all-inclusive and there would need to be multiple security redundancies to make sure that all tx's on the transaction network are processed by the mining network and vice-versa when a purse balance is updated on the transaction network to make sure that the tx was actually processed by the mining network before adding or removing coins from a balance but I believe it can be done.

    I would also like to incorporate a feature which RuCoin has that if someone on of the chains should gain 51% control of their tier the network would go into a defensive mode and would begin accepting blocks from each chain round-robin style (chain #1 finds a block, then chain #2, then chain #3 and repeat until the user no longer has 51%). In this fashion all the "attacker's" blocks would be rejected by the network at least until it was that specific chain's turn to find a block or until the "attacker" reduced his hashing power or left the network completely.

    This should make the coin friendly to ASICs, FPGA, GPU and CPU users alike while also providing theoretical 51% immunity because the network will adjust to users with high hashrates rather than try to fight them, fast and reliable confirmation times due to a reliably consistent block generation rate (due to rapid re-targets preventing any single chain from stalling for an extended period of time due to dramatic loss of hashing power, dramatic increases in hashing power from a single source will be capped by the "defensive" mode and traditional "long rounds" are eliminated by multiple chains with varying difficulties) as well as a few other features I have in mind.

    If anyone is interested in helping me to create an alt-coin with these features I would be more than happy to team up and have a go at it...

    This will be done entirely in the public eye. There will be no pre-mine (all testing will be done on testnet and/or unofficial blockchain which will never be used by the official network). We will make an official announcement here in the forums with the official release date with plenty of notice so that everyone has the same opportunity to begin mining it at the same time.

    I also have a few other ideas for the coin, some borrowed, others my own original concepts, contact me if you have relevant knowledge and are interested in creating a dev team...

    EDIT: Basic Details/Features of APCXS (begin tl;dr):

    1. Separate networks for mining and transactions
    2. Multiple blockchains with separate difficulties on the mining network tiered by hashrate limitations
    3. Reliably consistent block generation (tx confirmation) times
    4. Short confirmation times
    5. Rapid difficulty re-targets
    6. Tiered approach makes this coin friendly for ASIC, GPU and CPU miners alike
    7. Users are automatically enrolled into the proper tier based on their hashing power
    8. 51%, double-spend attacks and difficulty attacks are theoretically eliminated

    I am unable to login to BTC-e even though I see over 7,000 people in the chat...

    I can't even create a new account to get in and let them know since they apparently have no way to contact them unless you are logged in.

    They are holding my USD, won't let me in and I am PISSED...
