The wallet doesnt sync anymore.

No, you can't.
The hallmark is bound on the node ip address and an account.
Because the ip address is unique, the hallmark must be unique.
However, you can use one account for all your nodes.

I purchased some AMPS using my Electrum BTC wallet on my Win7 pc. You're saying that somehow the amps will appear in my Electrum wallet at the end of the sale? Won't they just be bitcoins? How will my Electrum BTC wallet recognize them as AMPS?

Would be great if Synereo could put up a site and video that clearly describes how we'll get our AMPS at the end of the crowdsale.

Do I *need* an Omniwallet to get my AMPS? I created an Omniwallet account yesterday and entered in the "Sent From" address I used for my purchase of amps. It found nothing connected to that address.

I hope that Synereo can clear up this confusion. I've traded some emails with Don Konforty about this but, because I'm not super techie, I can't parse his replies. They're too short and cryptic for a non-geek like me. I've asked him for step by step newbie instructions but nothing yet. Hopefully soon.

It's like the twilight zone.

I don't think I will be using coinbase any longer. Next time I want to buy bitcoin ill just reach out to the community on the forums here and leverage my impeccable reputation.

The 3 Platforms That Will Decentralize The Web
http://www.forbes.com/sites/ilyapozin/2015/04/10/meet-the-3-platforms-that-will-decentralize-the-web/

....Here are a few platforms leading the web decentralization movement:

Synereo

As a new platform for decentralized social networking, Synereo is a powerful system for the peer-to-peer movement of social media information. This allows different users on the network to interact directly with each other, without the need for either party to be connected to each other or to a central server. All of the user data is distributed across the community of Synereo users, where it is safely encrypted — inaccessible to anyone (even the creators of the platform).
Synereo also has a built-in currency that will create what the organization calls the economy of attention. The currency — called AMP — rewards users for their attention to content and can be used to amplify content posted to the network. Users on the network set the value of attention to ensure attention is rewarded appropriately.
“Social platforms are used by 80 to 90 percent of people in the western world,” said Dor Konforty, CEO and Co-Founder of Synereo. “In some parts, people are barely aware of the ‘Internet’ outside of Facebook. Synereo’s technology offers a completely new way to create an Internet. It changes how information flows, how and where data is stored, and where logic operations are conducted.”...

I am in the middle of a move at the moment, but I want to give a brief summary of the takeover.

In summary, SouthernBTC was able to get ahold of Dean (studio1one) and refer him to me for discussion re: the takeover. Dean unfortunately had a run of bad luck, and could no longer afford to fund this project. The patent application was real, yes, however Dean will be providing documentation absolving him of the right to uphold the patent over us should the application be accepted. I received from him control over the GitHub, Twitter, EventToken account here on this forum, eventtokencrypto@gmail.com account, what was left of the premine (282264 EVENT) and the website event-hub.co. This control is now shared between SouthernBTC, KimmyF, and myself. KimmyF helped get our interim block explorer up and running and is also hosting a node to keep the blockchain healthy. Several others have stepped forward and volunteered to continue to run a node.

The three of us thought that this project deserved further pursuit as it really is a brilliant concept with real world significance. The three of us, however, are not capable of building what was intended for this project ourselves. And unfortunately, Dean has not yet been able to secure the XCP fork work that we had seen in the screenshots he posted in IRC. He has said that he will continue to try and retrieve this work from the person who holds it for us.

So at this juncture I would say that we are simply working to keep the blockchain alive and healthy and we invite anyone to join our Slack team who has the connections, insight, skills, motivation, etc. to make what was intended for this project, or something like it, become a reality. Send one of us a PM here with your email address.

When I have some time near the end of the week when I am done with my move I can make a proper update to the OP and provide any more details I might have.

If you are trying to connect to the network, please refer to the nodes we've posted in this thread and know that you may have to delete everything but the wallet.dat and the .conf file and start the sync from scratch in order to get on the proper chain.

I must admit that most of this paper (and all of its math) go straight over my head, but VB does seem to regard Nxt as being 'cryptoeconomically secure' which sounds like  a good thing to me.... anyone got any more expert input on this paper and it's implications for NXT ?

A remote server should run NIS only. NCC should always run locally!

So once you have NIS running on the remote server and it is booted (manually from NCC or by entering a bootkey into NIS config.properties [but please don't enter priv keys as bootkey from accounts with funds]), you can connect to that NIS and start delegated harvesting.

Please also see this: http://blog.nem.io/nem-tutorial-list/

Hi himmelsfaller! Sites like nodeexplorer.com expose your IP address. With this information anyone could try opening NCC over the web via http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8989/ncc/web/index.html.

Chances are someone accessed your NCC and created that new wallet. When running a public node, it's best not to have NCC running (running NIS with unlocked account is all you need to keep harvesting) or change its port to something unique only you know. I could imagine that NIS is not available because the same person specified a remote server (probably non-available one), which is why your NIS doesn't boot/refuses booting.

In NCC, go to Settings and see what is specified. Change it back to your previous settings (default is 127.0.0.1 and default port checked).

If you have harvesting activated, you can go ahead and close NCC. Then simply keep NIS running. It is actually kind of a flaw that NIS can easily be made unavailable simply via NCC's front page at this point. I wanted to point this out earlier but you reminded me. Hope that helps.

If the facebook news is a lie or a "joke" then Im not investing a single dollar here, Im not here for jokes, If I want to joke or listen and read jokes I'd rather just download the 9gag app. If it is a lie this proyect is just a joke and you just destroyed trust and confidence.

yes.. only once you close nis, will nis stop running.. closing the browser is no different to minimizing bar the fact you will need to enter your password again.. if you are local harvesting and you close your browser, nis will keep harvesting.

Nxt is pretty damn cool if you take the time to understand how it works under the hood. I got lucky on stumbling upon nxt early because i was trying really hard to solve a problem and then bcnxt came along and solved it for me. (i thought it was insoluble) I was so impressed i bought a bunch then and there. This is not a plug for nxt, it seems to be dying. I sold a ton to take my monero position. Its still cool tech though. Really cool.

I've just noticed a 0.005 trade at bittrex, what's going on?
 

Any news?

As someone who holds some darknote, boolberry, and monero, I think there are a couple of reasons that monero has a greater level of interest/marketcap/trade volume/etc.

1) The development team appears to actually be a team, several members of which are well-known (within the cryptocurrency world), particularly fluffypony and tacotime, and several of which have disclosed their irl identities, at least fluffypony (richard spagniola (sp?)) and davidlatapie (david latapie). dNote claims that there is a team of folks working on the dark duck, but he is the only one who ever posts or commits on github, and he is an unknown in terms of bitcointalk/irc/crypto world and as well as irl identity. The monero team is quite active as a whole (the sum of all members contributions) on bitcointalk, irc, github, reddit, their own websites, etc., whereas dNote posts maybe once a week or two on bitcointalk, has no irc presence, and seldom updates the website or github repo. I think boolberry and cryptozoidberg are even worse in this regard, with practically no updates or interactions with miners, speculators, or others interested in the coin.

2) The distribution of darkducknote coins was extremely rapid compared to monero (and especially compared to boolberry). dNote has offered various rationales for disbursing 85% of all coins that will ever exist when the network hashrate was 1/20 or 1/100 of monero's network at the same time, but I think to a lot of people it smells like an instamine and seems a bit scammy. Before it switched from duck to darknote, around 85% of coins ever to exist were mined in approximately 3 months. Granted, its not as bad as shadowcoin and it's ilk that had a few days or weeks of PoW before switching completely to PoS, but I think it's along the same lines in the minds of at least some people interested in cryptonotes.

Anyway, as the person before me said, "You're not supposed to take anyone's word...". The activity level of the development team is fairly easy to verify, as well as the number of coins in circulation and the network hashrate at any point in time (using the graphs at minergate or chainradar). In my opinion it's these two factors (transparency and activity of team and coin emission) that led to monero dominating the cryptonote space at the moment.

"AMPs will be received based on the USD value of the amount contributed as provided by CoinDesk."

So if I send BTC now, will it be automatically fixed to the actual BTC/USD price to date? Or at the end of the crowdsale?

Example: I send 4 BTC now (Coindesk's price at the time of post: 247,04 USD) = 988,16 USD = 152176,64 AMP (Is that amount fixed by the system automatically? or is it subject to change due to BTC's price volatility?)

Just a suggestion: You should fix AMP's value in BTC not in USD, say 154 AMP are worth 0.004 BTC instead of fixing it in USD.
