Nice, I see you got those changes made... for the better... all but one...

Your payment processor, "CoinPayments"... You show it, but you don't link it. (EG, if that was paypal, you could click on the paypal logo or link, to visit the site, before making a purchase.)

Add the link for www.coinpayments.net and you are golden, in my "customer" eyes.

Can't wait to see what other stores will use a gateway like that. (Until cryptsy has an actual gateway like Gox does... it makes it difficult to setup.)

P.S. Keep an eye on steam-sales and you can really make a killing. Pre-purchase games on deep-discount, as gifts, then once the sale is done, everyone who missed it will be looking for those games. (Just make sure the page with the game is google-friendly, and it will revisit often. Best if the games have a separate "info page" to go along with the window-display of games.)

That is a normal warning for outdated check-points in chains... (Not a severe warning, if it is working.)

You are fine, that is the correct chain. There has not been an update with the hard-coded check-point, due to the wallet running well.

Just check to see that you are on the correct chain by the bottlecap-explorer.
http://bottlecaps.kicks-ass.net/block_crawler.php

You should also be able to see the correct block-height on this site.
http://www.coinchoose.com/

If you see your diff is about 41K in your miners... that is the correct difficulty at the moment. If you see your diff real low, like 10K to 1K... and only 3 connections... that is a sign you are on the wrong chain. Otherwise you are golden.

I believe he is working on rewording some of the text in the wallet, to make it more appropriate to what it is complaining about. However, all wallets say that, when they are fine. It is more of a "caution" warning, that you MIGHT be on the wrong chain... as opposed to being an "DANGER! Fix it or die!" warning.

Is cryptsy broken again, or are BTC transfers still all blocked-up? This stupid thing has been pending for almost two hours now. This is so frustrating.

Also, is it time to reset the block-crawler connections are only up to 10, I show only 8 (as usual).

Sustainer-bot now active... (For lack of something better to call it.)

I only have 4 BTC to play with, as the rest is on hold for trading, so I can make more money to buy more to trade. (Oh, the irony of palindromes.)

When I get more free time, I will make my bot more aggressive. However, aggression usually just drains my wallet. xD I would rather give people a reason to trade, and/or hold, while expanding the disposable-loss market to a consumer-base.

At the moment, only about 0.00003500 and lower is safe... On the high side, 0.00012000 is safe for walls. (I won't buy over $0.10 per coin until I have some definitive path for the coin. Just don't expect me to buy everyone's coins for life!

15K... That's a decent wall... Someone has got to be cashing-out on all the low buys they got, or they were easy-mined or easy-trades. Well, now they are not around to haunt us. Sell wisely if you must, but you might want to wait for BTC's next big peak. I smell $3000 coming around the corner. I keep seeing listings of 10K BTC buy-walls, all pushing up. (Pumping?) Though, $3000 is the next realistic high, by miners-debt. xD

P.S. BTC is creepy right now... sooo still... It is like there is a lion ready to jump on prey, and I can't tell if it is going to devour USD or devour BTC... It's like a stale-mate. Whoever lists the largest volume first, is going to loose the bull-bear war. I am actually afraid to place a buy order, or a sell order for BTC. (And that never scares me. I make money going up or down.)

That's OK, I am buying... got some BTC from GOX finally showing back Cryptsy. I am still having trouble with the chart, and my bot hasn't been watching since cryptsy upgraded the new hardware and trade-code. Wait, 15K as in $$$ or coins?

How high was your wall? Since the charts got buggy because cryptsy made everyone relist orders, the coins have been bot-sniped to hell. lol. I will put my anti-bot back online when I buy more BTC again.

My prior post was not to you... There was another block-crawler that was a dead link. (Like your format a little more.)

So is there any more input about rebranding, or against rebranding... I really need an answer with permanence, before I spend time and money on a website and actual marketing.

If we neutralize it to just CAP, that can allow secondary marketing and image, keeping the coin-machine as just that... a coin generator, wallet, and method of delivery. (If the GUI could be skinned, that would be a big bonus.)

C.A.P.

Coin
Access
Point

A digital bank, without the wait!

I think they actually wanted the "explorer".... that is hardly an explorer. More like a hunt-n-find...

The other one was great, but it disappeared. (Another one of the dead-links.)

I am looking into a PHP charting tool, so I can show some more realistic and useful information for some of these coins. Mostly, I want to show the trade-value with the 10K and 1K and 100 coin volume prices. In USD and BTC. Since one without the other is useless.

Seems the coin likes to be around $0.10 (Which is think is partly psychologically pounded-in by the 1-cent bottle-cap. I would rather see it at $1.00, hedged to BTC and LTC as USD-value.)

That is my goal.

I have turned my initial $2000 into about $4400 in the last few days, trading BTC and other alts. When the price drops again, per BTC, I will swipe-up more BTC to continue buying CAPs. I have thrown-up a small sell-wall, as if it were ever going to get that high in the immediate future... to help ensure the rise doesn't look like a pump again. That erroneous sell of 0.0008 should be off the charts soon enough to begin actually being able to read the values.

I added a request to add CAPs to the list.

On a side-note, cryptsy is going through some issues... Be careful if place an order, canceling it may result in the coins not getting "returned", but it will cancel the order. Thus, you may not have coins to trade, until you ask them to audit your account. (Even then, they see your coins in the account, but you don't. So you still can't make trades.)

However, trading seems to work fine.

Why would you cancel an order? Because they erased all the BUY/SELL books, but didn't refund the coins. The only listings you see for coins now, are listings that were made within the last few hours. (Even if you have an old listing/order, it would never sell. (They seem to have created a whole new database for orders, by accident.)

Though, half my canceled orders have come back. My bitcoins are still 0. That is delaying me from buying more coins.

That is also why the charts got screwy... someone listed coins for 0.0000001 and purchased their own coin. Then they listed one for 0.0008 and purchased it. (That turned the spread high, making the real values look like a nice flat line. lol.)

Can you add CAP to the list.

Thank-you, JD

Ready for the next big BTC hike? Don't get scared if alts drop slightly... You have to keep tabs on the dollar-value of 1000 alts, compared to BTC, to see the value.

Caps went higher than I expected. Time for me to slow-down my buying. lol. My damn bots almost made me bankrupt!

And to think, a month ago I purchased 2 x-box 360 games for 0.5 BTC... Ouch. That guy made hundreds off of me! Was only $120 for 0.5 BTC a month ago. Now that is like $600, or $300 per game! (Shipping included, lol.)

The big question is... Should I keep buying coins or buy another mining rig. (It is getting cold outside, but buying coins is faster and easier. )

Still waiting for any more input about rebranding this coin. (The low-impact rebranding, not the full cross-dressing rebranding to a phantasmal cliché-coin.)

Nice to see some heavy moves on CAPs today... Boggles my mind actually.

Bots got smarter. They are no-longer insta-listing small amounts. Guess they realized people actually want to buy larger volumes, all at once. Not play the 1/100th of a penny game. xD (Some are still insta-listing, but at wider spreads and half-volumes. Since they realize it is unavoidably going back up. Now if BTC falls, all these coins will sling-shot to the high positions they once were, a few months ago. Hope you are mining while the DIFF is still low! Future mine, ignore the price now... Think about what it will be in the next month, with those new coins out of the hands of insta-dumpers!)

P.S. Invest in Chinese Yuan (CNY), not USD... Double your returns, because USD is dropping fast. (We need Yuan to pay our debt, they are not accepting USD. Well, they are, but at 1/3rd the value of USD. Since this is now a major Chinese market. Obviously, they are creeping into all the ALT-Coins now too. All alts on the rise, and BTC = your USD value falling.)

P.P.S. Move your BTC positions up above $1300... Trust me, it will sell. Buy them back when it drops back down to $800 in a month, on a panic-sell. When the holidays hit, it will spike again.

P.P.P.S. CAPs to 0.00009000... soon... Just saying... (That is ~1000 coins for ~$116... How many coins can you mine in a day? I still hit 2000-6000, depending on how-many miners I dedicate to CAPs, at this diff.)

At this rate, I might start building more miners. The ROI just dropped from 1 year to about 3 months!

Time to tell all your friends how easy it is to get into. Convince them to buy one or two or three 7970's or 7990's, which they can use for gaming later, or sell to other miners. (I have a feeling that someone is going to release a major scrypt overhaul soon. That code is not as optimized as it could be. This I say because there is one set of code which gives a gain of about 25%, over the one used in cgminer, but it is custom, at the moment for lite-coin. Also, there is a 7970 custom bios that "allegedly", used with a FPGA, produces almost 10x what the cards generic bios does. Might be why someone out there is able to just dump coins so cheap. It costs them a fraction of the energy to make them.)

By the way, "Power Color HD Radeon 7970 OC Edition" is the best card I have setup. It easily runs at 700Khs, without special cooling, if you have the power. However, I still run all of mine at a modest 550-650Khs, where they are most "efficient" with my power-supplies. (6 cards running at 600Khs is about 1200 Watts at the wall on 120v, including the CPU power. That would be about 980 Watts with 240v and a better PSU.)

That is too funny...

Video-cards (The 7970's), went from selling for $250-$300 NEW, back up to $400-$600 USED since all the alt-coins started rising again. (Good for us, because that keeps the cost of production up. Real good for Radeon, because this has got to be one of the only cards that goes back UP in price, every year... As opposed to going down by half each year. lol.)

Back up and running with 8 connections. The one with 3 was running near-zero diff, and taller, but obviously the wrong height, by majority.

Block-crawler still not responding, so I assume it is on the same bad chain.

Block-height is  219226 and diff shows as 27.3K in the miners. (~0.41656494140625 diff)

CAUTION: Fork?

Found my computers down and CAP wallet out of sync with only 3 connections this morning. Block-crawler down too... Reloading an old backup of the chain, since the existing chain isn't fixing itself, still... (Didn't realize that was still an issue.)

Hope it finds the right connections!

P.P.P.S. That needs to be fixed too... Chain correction. Whatever it tried to do, just caused my PC to shutdown and, again, I am having to download the whole chain or resort to my backup of a chain. (A backup I have to do manually, because the program doesn't auto-backup from the last hard-coded block.)

Mullick, any thoughts about the rebranding suggestions?
- My final suggestion is just "CAP" or "CAPs"... Thus, just calling them "Caps", or "Digital-Caps", or "Crypto-Caps", or "Cap-Coins"... as in, "Apex", or "Limit", or "Top". (Makes rebranding simple and easy. More like a refinement of the product. The wallet and site would not brand them as "digital-caps"... Just "CAP"... But they would be referred to as a "Digital Cap", or any of the above mentioned knick-names.)

Possibly too, some of the other suggestions, to make this next release a mile-stone release?
- Fixing the text for "what the fees actually go towards".
- Consideration for a flat-TXfee, since the penalty for unavoidable dust is irregular and makes no sense. (Similar to how POS is a fixed-percent. Since fees can be avoided entirely by inter-trading on the exchange anyways. Something like 0.01% to a minimum of 0.00000001, in order to be a valid TX. To limit super-micro dust-tx's, if it comes to that.)
- POS->POW(Idle) ability, for reducing low-diff mine-sell abuse. (And to reward those who save that mine POS, when diffs get low.)
- Every-other-block diff-adjust, instead of every-block adjustments. Limiting POS to the "other" blocks, when POS is available. (To alleviate network rejections where blocks just don't circulate fast enough, when POS waves happen.)
- Wallet-export and wallet-import, of only the critical "recreation" address info. (Not the individual tx's. For paper-wallet and safe-back-up.)

P.S. There is a lot to read... lol. (I just summed-up my crap into this one post.)

P.P.S. I am still buying all these under-priced CAPs, which are slowly rising in dollar-value, but not faster than I can buy them. (All those listing "sells" low are just handing me their investments. lol. The hardest part is buying them before the re-listing bot buys the lower ones. But he is still selling them to me at a bargain too! xD)

Also a suggestion...

Why not make the wallet use some CPU use, when not POSing... To mine POW, while POW exists. (This way, any-time the diff is low, instead of it all going to only a few cash-out miners, the found coins go to the people POSing, who would welcome the nice 10-coin reward between POSing blocks. Thus, limiting the cash-out, which just degrades the overall value and lowers the diff by pushing away miners.)

Eg, it only POSes, when POS is available to be generated. However, when not POSing, it just sits idle. If you allow us to select %CPU use, we could dedicate spare cycles to help reduce the further under-selling from cash-outs. One that wouldn't interfere with our normal computer use, by using 100% cpu power.

Perfect time to test that theory... If it adds only 20Mhs from the POS open-wallets, that is less POW miners will get, and will have to demand more for their coins. Yet, it won't be so much power that it would cripple the network when more actual miners begin mining the coin again. But the more POS users, the harder it becomes to "solo-harvest" by degrading other miners from mining. Which is happening now. Was happening... But I can't keep buying everyone's coins forever! (Ok, I am buying many, not all of them. lol. The point is, I am not buying them then instantly re-listing them, stopping others from mining and making it go lower.)

At these prices, the coins are still a steal to buy. Not so great to sell though, unless you are mining for the future.

Anyone have the wallet/daemon running on a raspberry-pi?

EDIT: Found a site with a nice tutorial... going to try and see how this works for the daemon...
http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/

Just have to put apachee with PHP and MySQL on there too... and you have a whole gateway sub-processor account all ready to go!

Would make a great turn-key solution, to sell, for those wanting processing integration on websites. (As opposed to bogging-down the website-server with that additional processing load, and exposing the wallet directly to the server. Especially since most web-shops are on shared-servers or home-servers.)

I would just rather spend $35 for a wallet-processor, instead of another $300+ for another dedicated power-hungry computer.

Plus, I can just put it right next to my router at home, where I can monitor it directly and swap-out physical wallets.

Now if the wallet just used something secure for talking, besides unsecured HTTP and JsonRPC... That would give us another advantage over other wallets. (Why it isn't HTTPS or simply encoded HTTP-URLs, I will never know.)

Also, might want to put up some simple RPC access-limits for the config. EG, I only need read-only access, or confirm-payment info. (As opposed to Allow-all, or Allow-none, by not allowing or not allowing RPC connections. Since the NAME and PASSWORD are both broadcast in the URL for POST connections over HTTP/HTTPS. Without URL encryption. EG, http://mywallet.com:3232/RPC?99s8f78ds7df8g7d9f8gdf6g7dsfsdfadfafdasd54656r5fg6" The command, name and pass would be encrypted, with salt, as well as the matching reply. Thus, useless reply to those without the key.)

Thus, having it limited to just those replies and commands, stops someone from maliciously "Creating new addresses", which would potentially break or fill a wallet with dead-addresses that can't be recovered through normal recreation of an earlier wallet. (That, or asking for wallet-info that otherwise might expose sensitive information or other commands from the wallet, from the JsonRPC interface, which I don't need. Which many of us will never even use. Those who do use them, also would know how to enable the ones they need. Thus, all except "Connection reply info", should be disabled, until turned-on in the config file.)

He said a few posts back, that he was indisposed for a brief moment. He was going to check-in from his laptop, from where-ever he was at... I am not sure how-much he will be able to do, away from home. Not like everyone keeps their programming artillery with them on the go!

I wish more people would chime-in, on the coin.

I am looking into the paper-wallet thing more. Since I will be making go-cards with it, like I did with min-coins, months ago. (Which is why I had that code in the first-place.)

Now if they just had a wallet-generator that was repeatable, based off the locking-password and the original first receive-address... That would give our wallets something that others don't have... Recreatable wallets, from two solid values. (Unlike now, where only the first 100 addresses are recreatable, and any beyond 100, are just lost, if you don't know them or the wallet gets corrupted. Since the following 100, after the first 100 are purely random creations. Since it would use the locked-wallet password as part of the generation, that maintains the random security. Because if they know your password, then you are screwed anyways.)

Having multiple wallets would be a nice touch too... (Selectable from within the client.)

Having a coin-specific wallet, would be even better... (Cap-wallet.dat, as opposed to all wallets just called wallet.dat, which makes it a pain to backup. Because you have to make each in a folder, or rename them all then rename them again to restore them.)

Even better if it did an auto-backup, to a different location, checking that the wallet was OK before doing a backup. (One bad section in a hard-drive, and your wallet is just gone. It never even knows it is corrupt until you try to reload it. Especially after a computer crash, which happens often when you leave your wallet open to mine all the time. Hard-drive caching is guilty of that corruption.)

Even if you restore an older wallet, if you had tx's with newer random addresses, those are just lost forever, because they didn't exist in the older wallet, and the chances of recreating that address again, randomly, are slim-to-none. (For those of us who use more receiving addresses than the wallets first 100, to identify sales. But again, all coins are like that, at the moment.)
