I'd rather wait weeks for poloniex to add it back again then push XCP onto coinedup.  Coinedup has always had a reputation as a lazy, shoddy, 3rd rate exchange.

Sure, you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but if I were an investor looking to purchase XCP I would instantly take it less seriously when I find out it only trades on some ugly, slow, bland turd of a website.

If anything I'd push to get XCP onto C-CEX.com or mintpal.com, but after the shenanigans at Poloniex, I suspect no exchange is gonna wanna list it til it gets back on Poloniex and proves itself for a little while.

I am also willing to donate whatever it takes to get Busconi back what he lost.  I am willing to bet we could raise the 7000 XCP easily.

Now raising 80 BTC (if the hacker doesn't make good on his promise to return it) may be a bit trickier.

I don't see any evidence that Poloniex was hacked. The guy who dumped messaged me and said that the XCP protocol is not safe. It appears he is correct--there seems to be a major issue with XCP. People noticed that 35,000 XCP were withdrawn as soon as it was deposited--but this was not done using Poloniex's withdrawal system. I've asked the guy for more details. He says he has no intention of keeping the money he made off with.

I don't understand.
Busoni if what you are saying is right than all users XCP and BTC are safe?



He said "the XCP protocol is not safe, as anyone can spend any XCP present." And the evidence on Poloniex is that this is true. He made a legitimate deposit to get a balance on Poloniex, then took the XCP without using Poloniex's withdrawal system, so his balance was not subtracted. If he had hacked Poloniex and gotten privileges to cover up a withdrawal, there would be no need for the legit deposit. The actions are consistent with him having some way of whisking the XCP out of the central wallet. And unless this is a vulnerability with XCP, the only way to do that would be to have total access to the wallet server, and as I said, he didn't take anything else.

He expressed a desire to work the problem out. It seems to have been a demonstration rather than a theft.

We also want to work on this. Please give more details

Uhhhhhhh..............no.  Please do not give more details.  If it is a fault with XCP the only people he should be sharing details with are the devs.

still no windows qt?

windows QT is there , i'm just slaving away trying to get it to accept more threads.

Where?  Not seeing it in the github, let me play with it.  If this is same algo as PTS us windows users could use external miner, no?

To all those having trouble syncing, it has something to do with the node list included in the announce page.  I couldn't get any connections with that list, I went into my conf, deleted all the nodes, and it fired up and started syncing right away.  Many of those nodes must be outdated or maxed out on connections.
587  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MINT]Mintcoin, Energy Saving Coin With a Fast Distribution *Game on: February 16, 2014, 11:46:14 PM
Seriously guys, the wallet is not in good shape. I usually open it every couple of days and for hours there's just no active connection. I've already all the nodes posted in these threads.

I am just using the nodes listed on the announce page, it takes a while sometimes, but it always syncs for me.  But yes, it will sit there for 10 minutes looking like it is doing nothing before it does sometimes.  I don't know, been hearing a lot of complaints of this though so if there is a legit problem hopefully the dev is on it.  Seeing as one of the main selling points of MINT is the POS, a functioning wallet is even more necessary for it's success.  I know most new alts I will keep in exchanges if possible just because I don't want hundreds of wallets taking up space, but I store my MINT and other POS coins locally.

I would say it takes time because your CPU is processing the POS blocks, but POS shouldnt start until after the mining period correct?

Your welcome guys!!  I'm pretty sure he was about to go to sleep until he saw my "+100".

You see, I made it +100 instead of +1 so he would understand it was 100 times more important than a simple +1.

I just want the history books to show that the successful launch of NRS was all thanks to me.

Barwizi did some stuff too, fit him in in a footnote somewhere.

How long until windows wallet?

Is this thing starting or what?  All you coin devs are wearing down my F5 key.

Ok, trying to get counterpartyd working again, for the life of me I can't get this thing going no matter what I do.  Nothing but error messages no matter if I compile from source or use the installer.

Just wanted to clarify something, ok so here is the default counterpartyd conf

[Default]
bitcoind-rpc-connect=localhost
bitcoind-rpc-port=8332
bitcoind-rpc-user=rpc
bitcoind-rpc-password=rpcpw1234
rpc-user=my_api_user
rpc-password=my_api_password


If I am not using the API to connect to counterpartyd, do I just put anything in those spots?

And my corresponding bitcoin conf is this

server=1
daemon=1
txindex=1
rpcallowip=localhost
rpcport=8332
rpcuser=rpc
rpcpassword=rpcpw1234

I know there are guides on this but I am clearly doing something wrong and just wanted to be sure I had the basics right.

Have we decided on a logo yet?

Believe most are a fan of one of these



I beg to differ.

This is not professionnal looking, and IMHO not balanced. I prefer the one on the top left here (with other colors) http://www.reddit.com/r/xcp

+1

Like the one from reddit.

Well I'm confused.  Should I keep mining?  Are we still gonna pump and dump this shit?  Or save my hashes for the other flappycoin so we can pump and dump that shit?  Can we pump and dump both?  That would be lovely.
595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MINT]Mintcoin, Energy Saving Coin With a Fast Distribution *Game on: February 14, 2014, 04:45:37 PM
Also thinking than many miners didn't look into it closely enough and think there will be a far greater supply of these coins then there will be in reality.  The announcement by the dev says 70 billion coins, but only about 20 billion will be produced by PoW during the 5 week mining period.  The other 50 billion will be produced over the entire course of it's life as PoS.

So if we start PoS at 20 billion coins, and 100% of the coins are staked, at 20% that'll only be another 4 billion mined in the next year.  Even less as years go on.  We all know too that there is no way 100% of the coins will be staked at all times.  That number will be far lower.

Compare that to MOON which has 26 billion or so coins right now and is producing, I don't know exactly the number, but A LOT more each day.  Or IFC which is nearly totally mined at 90 billion coins (and will produce a small amount of PoS forever I believe, correct me if I am wrong) yet sits at 15 satoshis today.

In conclusion, my amateur market analysis says MINT to the moon.
596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MINT]Mintcoin, Energy Saving Coin With a Fast Distribution *Game on: February 14, 2014, 04:14:10 PM
No, not at all. I'm on the fence of buying this for ~2k USD or so.

Distribution being so fast it's crucial that this coin gets all the attention because if you're hoping to have it all for yourselves like someone expressed it earlier than reality is gonna strike harsh. No one will want to buy a coin that is already distributed in the hands of a few people as I'm sure you'll understand that fewer holders equal to a greater dump to oblivion risk.

I apologize if my previous post sounded trollish, I want to understand why this model of distribution is better first.

This thread is silent?
The Dev is silent?
This coin is a pump and dump?
Pyramid?

Sounds to me like someone is a little bitter they just found this thread to me.

If you don't like it or don't agree with it you can simply just move along.

Well, I would say it is a better distribution model and a better coin to invest in because long run, I expect all PoW coins except BTC to die.  Although I love being able to mine coins and make money from home, in the end, PoW is a wasteful way to secure a network.

A purely PoS coin held by a small number of people didn't stop NXT from rising high (although it does have that whole "2nd gen crypto" appeal going for it as well).

In the end, why does an investor give a damn if a coin is fair to miners?  As long as the network is secure and the coin is functional, thats all that matters.  In any event, the launch was solid and there is plenty of opportunity to mine right now and buy loads of MINT for 5 satoshis each, so no reason the base of early adopters can't be wide.

I have mined a fair amount and bought 100 million from mintpal because I think if the devs can do a good job at marketing this thing (the "green" crypto) it could be a success.

But hey, even if the whole thing turns out to be a scam, at least buy some to get in on the pump and dump right?  If MOON can hit 39 satoshis at cryptsy and settle into 10 satoshis as it is today, how could you possibly not profit by buying MINT at 5 satoshis right now?

Mining at dedicatedpool and it is telling me that the deposit address provided from cryptorush is invalid so won't let me update account.  Anyone else having this issue?  Is it a problem with dedicatedpool or cryptorush?

Make sure you are on PANDA not PAND, that will be why Smiley.

It will be because you are depositing to wrong coin!

yep, that was it.  thanks.

With all the shit coins out there, why does this one get zero support?  I don't get it.  I mean, it's not my favorite coin but seems solid enough.  It has an active dev, services, etc.  I mean, I am not expecting it to be in the top 10 or anything but shit, it's like the whole community just gives it the cold shoulder.  Well I suppose I'll hold my 50k and hopefully it stops being ignored eventually.
