COMM is not so hot these days. The price is down to earth. ppl have dumped all their coins and left for new coins.
Because the dev conveniently "lost" 200M coins. If he has an unpatched client he can do a transaction with it sending it to the node that mints the next block, also running an unpatched client. Then the coins are "clean" and can be dumped on exchanges.

I just dumped COMM and bought MYR, a coin with no downsides and a technical innovation people are already copying.

Don't be stupid... minted coins are generated spending a transaction... nodes will block ANY (I said ANY, DID YOU UNDERSTAND?) transaction coming from that address. NOT A SINGLE TRANSACTION WILL BE ACCEPTED BY THE NETWORK COMING FROM THAT ADDRESS.


NOT EVEN MINT COINS.


Next time I will start posting in red with bigger fontsize.

it doesn't matter how many time you will explain it, it will come back everyday  Grin


It doesn't matter if that FUDster (is this the correct word?) understand it, I sincerely hope the others do it.

Last night people from another coin with real issues came to me to understand our patch willing to use it in a real problem. That's a real problem and if it proves itself there  I think people should stop worrying about it and start think in other things that need to be done. And start doing it instead waiting for the DEV to do it. If this is the Community coin it is already time for the Community start supporting it, not only voting on a stupid site, but doing something real.

Adriano



The problem is if the dev decides to unlock this address and issue a wallet update (for whatever reason) that many have to download. Well than we will have real trouble and whatever you say now is simply invalid.
You can't trust others to check the code because by then if might be too late - even exchanges didn't check ASIANCOIN's wallet until it was too late.
People suggested a hard fork and since this hasn't happened it will will hunt you over and over again.


here we go again... good luck Adriano  Grin


What do you mean. Adriano himself aknowledged that this can happen.

Please do not change what I said... It is not that easy to accomplish what you are advertising. If you doubt it, maybe we should block one of your addresses with an expressive amount of coins and let you prove your point. Besides that would be a fork on the network, you would need to be on the right side of the fork to succeed...

But I'm not with time to argue about this with you. If you really believe on what you are saying you should sell all your coins instead of spreading FUD while buying more and more... Believe me, doing this for such a long time may damage the confidence on the coin and when you stop doing it the coins you bought cheap might not recover at all... Learn with other FUDsters: spread FUD only for a short time and buy as much as you can, then stop being a jerk.

I'm sorry if I'm being too rude here, but I can't continue with this "issue" anymore. If I had the time I would do what you and a few others want just to stop hearing whining all the time.


Adriano

Thanks for your work. We don't have time to argue with people who willfully won't understand: or deliberately spread nonsense.


Anyone who is worried about the 'lost' coins, SELL all your COMM now and get lost, we don't want to hear from you.

CRYPTOCURRENCY "THE ALT-ERNATIVE" REFERENCE BOOK

I am in the process of writing the preliminary pages for Qubit Q2C/Qbit.  I need help from the Qubit Community in order fully complete it.  Historical points since the 12th January are required.  I want important points included.  Any further suggestions are welcome.  Please consider donating towards the future publication of the book.  I expect it to be published in the summer.

Donation address:   GQcGn5w4MGJR8XRsFedSQZfoZmp3VrYJJ9

Bitcointalk page: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=483187.new#new
A brief note here:  (Let me know the style of content required) 

Qubit Q2C was conceived as a currency with a Novel Agorithm :  5 hashes, with a different combination from any other Cryptocurrency.

The logo, a cube showing the ticker hash Q2C , represented the coin's name in simple graphical form, easily recognised at any resolution, from a tiny favicon.

The smooth functioning of the network, the algorithm, and fast transactions soon drew a good following.


The original developer, Krecu,  stated that he was a Ukranian national. A short while after the start of the 2014 Ukraine troubles, he stopped posting, and was not replying to messages.

Q2C continued to function well, and follows its planned trajectory. Anyone who tried using the wallet was impressed with the speed and smoothness of transactions.

host... make the pool to mine badgercoin its x11

we will all buy a lot of ecc in a few days... its price is perfect...

Now if possible... its POW is ending..

Yes i am aware there is about 10 cryptos using X11 we will make sure including them in the pool. I also believe all cryptos should use x11 or other asic resistant and gpu firendly algos. This is less harm to eco system and fit our goals.

As you notice ecc multi pool designed to mine every algo, there is select box for this option, you'll see there more algo in the close future.

It looks to me early miners again will benefit most. But we need to educate miners, they should mine as a investment, mine today sell tomorrow does not help much to ECC. So i'll place necessary warnings in the pool for the miners.

Our pool is scientific one on math calculations and we are ready to confront trolls and fuds will follow after that. I know many pool is not transparent enough, your revenues depends on the pool owners choice at background. There are many tricks one can do on the pool to cheat miners. Our pool transparency will allow and hopefully finish the worries on this area first time. I have seen such tricks used at otherpools. Our math is perfectly perfect tested very much and enough. also we are offering live stats like cgminer does.

Bytheway we will update soon the wallet. This is not big update, not mandatory one, i collected enough data from the community. So our new concept is "green future" :-)



'Green Future'  is good.  We don't need to over emphasize ecology in the write-ups, but this slogan, colour, tree projects and 'Energy Conservation' tag will show that sufficiently.

1704  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ★★ [ANN] ECCoin (ECC) ★★★ ECC for Green Future on: May 05, 2014, 09:29:13 AM
An article by The Cryptocurrency Times about ECC coin, describing that it is quite an active and well marketed coin, but at the same time bogged down by inflation. http://www.usacryptocoins.com/thecryptocurrencytimes/uncategorized/ecc-coin-a-promising-coin-which-is-being-bogged-down-by-inflation/

'Inflation' really has nothing to do with the price level. It is the level of demand, and the willingness to sell at a given price that discovers the value level. There can be any number of coins within reason (not like CENT for instance), and the price can rise on demand alone.

Higher PoS rates are a better encouragement for holders. The rate is tapered down by design, so it is not comparable to a currency inflation.

COMM is not so hot these days. The price is down to earth. ppl have dumped all their coins and left for new coins.

Due to the classic mistake of a too high block reward.

The block reward is nil. There is no PoW.

If you meant the stake rate, it is not high enough IMO.

I can't even sell anymore, if I sell my coins it would sent us back to the 40's  Lips sealed


Spekk, do you know that you are creating a panic sell without reason? Do you know that every thing that we post here has an impact on the market? Please, think about that. I think that trading need attitude  Undecided


I don't thinkt that the people that are dumping right now will read this forum. Probably just day traders and miners looking for quick money and take any price they can get. Impatience f**kers. I allready lost 25% of my investment not willing to lose much more because of them. Will be gone this evening when I get home I hope to see some good news or else I'm out.


Welcome to cryptoworld! If you want more fair trading, go to Forex, where you have to follow economic and geopolitical news. There also is limited the spread you are buying-selling at. This is free market, where even worst nightmares are possible. COMM is still strong, manipulators are trying to get more cheap coins with small sell orders coming through. Only the weak hands are following and selling.


My hands are shaking right now, I've invested all my college money in this...

You will sell out at the lows. Still a long way to go yet, but only after the weak hands have sold can the price really start to rise.

A community without tech skills is useless. The core and backbone of a coin is the dev team and their development.
Don't you all agree?

Agree entirely.

Arguments about early distribution are meaningless. The main Distribution is going on right now, on the exchanges..

COMM is alive, better than most alts... also very young. Don't be impatient.

1708  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) | Pure PoS | ON (BTER - MINTPAL - CRYPTSY) EXCHANGES on: May 02, 2014, 11:37:51 PM
we can fork and makes it X11 (I am pretty sure it would be possible...)

Of course. Just tell me. Why?
X11 is a POW algo. Why should it be implemented in a POS system?

Pure POS has a set of serious flaws that need adressing. Migrating to X11 is utterly meaningless.

+1

x11 is not useable with PoS.

Anyone suggesting Hardfork may not fully understand the issues here.
1709  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) | Pure PoS | ON (BTER - MINTPAL - CRYPTSY) EXCHANGES on: May 02, 2014, 11:35:47 PM


This looks great to me! Something new and also a fix for the 200M.

I want to add that I am not worried about those 200M but it seems that there still are a lot of people who are. I have seen that this problem is still mentioned in other threads when people are talking about COMM.


IMO it would be a big mistake to have a hard fork, especially over these two issues.


The 200m is a non-issue, I have advised before that it does not affect the long term viability at all.

The cold store minting is unproven, and will call into question the security of the coin. All Cryptocurrency has the single Private Key at the heart of it's security. I have found that the concept of trust is one of the biggest issues for the general public. Add to that the fact that experienced users of coldstore only do that because they are very concerned with security. I predict that they will be reluctant to use coldstore minting.

Just my 2c.

What changes would COMMunity like to see (if any) if there were to be a fork of the coin ?  Only for information: just interesting to get an idea.
why exactly do you want to fork already the coin ? (might have missed an episode...)
Quite frankly the less change the better, nobody likes when the rules change mid-game...


Of course, I do not want to fork. There was some talk about it earlier in the thread, and I dismissed it as a risky idea.... but I want to see people's opinion as to good and bad attributes.

im doing some graphic for op, banner and these kind of things
tell me what text do you want to be in banner (very briefly as far as you can please, maybe just important things)
to twitter admin, please tell about banner size
if there is anything you guys need for gfx, please suggest them here


First ever 100% POS, highest ever stake/mint reward, a function in the wallet to choose which coins and from which address to send so that you can preserve aging and not disturb the aging and therefore the minting process.

Maybe someone can put these in better wordings  Cheesy

Not the first, or 100%. ...but, done; see post above.

 First line : all in one strapline.
Others , expansion as required.

COMMunity Coin. An energy efficient CryptoCurrency, with a head-start on distribution, rewarding holders with high extra Stake in the first year.

Pure Proof of Stake, tapered annually, to adequately reward 1st Year entrants yet reduce inflation later.

High proportion of Crypto professionals working on real projects.

Active media platforms:Specialist Forum, Twitter, Bitcointalk.

Fast transactions and confirmations. Secure network.

I think now we should think heavy about hard fork to forget about lost 200mlj. This will raise confidence and the price will slightly climb up.

And after that or meanwhile, we have to brainstorm new ideas.
Strongly agree!


Disagree.
That can be done later, when there are additional good reasons for a fork. A hard fork needs exceptional reasons, because it can easily cause other problems, and is risky.

Getting on with real projects is going to add real value.

It is better for the 200m to overhang the price, keeping it low. Whether it ever comes on the market or not does not affect the long term value.

The people who sit back and speculate on price, going from one coin to the next will look after themselves. COMMunity should look after the real infrastructure and development.

this coin could have been so great without those retarded 200M that sit there and scare people from buying

People are afraid of buying, but the price is rising.. What does that mean ?  (clue : look at the stock market)
1716  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ★★ [ANN] ECCoin (ECC) ★★★ ECC for Trees" Project has started on: May 01, 2014, 08:36:59 AM
Everything is going to be all right. The good is, we should not focus on price but real projects. We can do any moment miraculous wallet update and things can change in a day. But we have to go one by one. So this weekend we start the most advanced multi pool in alt coin history. Then we will be one of first crypto project planting real trees to the planet. And i check after that what can we update with wallet. Or we can code shopping api. And so on. We have many exchanges to appear and shops waiting for us.

Also community should speak to me what you want from me, dev team? I think dev team plans are very transparent.




Use this time of low prices to develop real features and projects. I have some ideas for the wallet.
1717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ★★ [ANN] ECCoin (ECC) ★★★ ECC for Trees" Project has started on: May 01, 2014, 08:21:22 AM
Well kids it's not looking good for the home team. 



This does not look good, that is my technical analysis.  However, I'm not selling below 10 satoshi.  I'm stubborn like that. 

I'm not selling below 10 either!
Haha how long ya think we'll be holding? Tongue


15 weeks.
1718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] CommunityCoin (COMM) | Pure PoS | ON (BTER - MINTPAL - CRYPTSY) EXCHANGES on: May 01, 2014, 08:19:41 AM
I don't know if anyone remembers, but the dev actually has more than 200 million coins hidden. There are actually 1 billion coins, not 800 million as advertised on the op.

Maybe you missed some of the history, please read about last changes on the wallet software.

tldr: a wallet with ~200 million coins was lost by dev on a hard drive failure. That address was blocked on the software so those coins won't move (nodes won't accept them). Money Supply is yet ~1billion because those coins still exist (although they won't be allowed to be used on transactions).


Adriano

So in a future wallet upgrade the coins can be unlocked again?

That is possible, I guess.  There may also be a different solution found.

This presents a novel situation. Fear of the lost wallet will keep the price depressed, so there will not be the usual speculation.

The new coinmarketcap listing method is really stupid on my oppinion. Only the pos minted amount is counted now

Well, that's the rule, so the price change is still relative.

It could be good, because then the price gets less attention, which is what I have been advocating.

Just wanted to clarify: What is the Min/Max coin age for staking ?  The OP states 5-15 days 'typically' , does that mean random ?

I do understand the staking probability vs coin weight variable, but it there a fixed minimum age ?
