Sorry Dooglus, I misread your other chart. So if there hasn't been a big digger, the price seems stupidly low at the moment, I guess because people are moving their money into other stuff.
I will be getting back into CLAMS, I like the coin, I like the idea of the distribution and I trust JD, enough reasons for me.
The price is low probably because the coin has failed to break out of its small niche. It is used on basically one site (I know a few others support it but as far as I know that is not significant) which is mostly pointless for a supposedly decentralized system. There is no real reason for it to exist in its present form, and any initiatives to grow beyond that in terms of marketing or development are either nonexistent or invisible, so investors are just slowly giving up and walking away. I still have my CLAM pool and anyone is welcome to join. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the coin, but it very much looks like the typical dead end alt that slowly marches to zero. |

It's all about the Time stamps i see  smooth is saying Connor is making it up after the fact i think. I'm saying he hasn't proved otherwise. There is nothing from January 4th that mentions exploits in any way whatoever. The only timestamps that do are after it was already public. |

Not sure why the thread got locked; it looked interesting and on-topic to me. Being the creator of the world's first live Turing complete smart contract system (you can search about Qora or Burst about that) I unfortunately got involved in some of the "shit side" of this Wild West.
The charismatic @Come-from-Beyond used to actually chat to me and admitted to me that there was no "@bcnext" (and that he wrote the entire initial version of Nxt which IMO was rather shit software anyway).
I also got tricked by @Matthew.N.Wright who stole 70 BTC from me (he is really an asshole).
Am I looking for pity here - no!
Just a head's up that this space is full of cheaters and scammers and nothing much of any worth.
(well - if you do talk to Matthew then remind him that he owes me 70 BTC)
If you were stupid enough to invest in IOTA then sorry but you deserve to lose your money.
(but that aside those assholes are not brave enough to try and cause trouble here in China so if you have been fucked over then let me know)

thanks for all that answered, here is a somewhat "strange" question:
how much VEST in the wallet is considered a lot ? or differently phrased and I know this is a bit funny question (a lot is soo relative) decent position to hold for a year or even years
I almost never part with a crypto so I am perfect for this experiment
I'd consider 1k as a lot. that's close to 1 bitcoin, at least last time I checked 1k Steem is currently close to 1 BTC, but VESTS are a bit different. They only exist in the CLI; in the web site VESTS are always converted to Steem (Power) units. Currently 1 Steem equals about 8000 VESTS, but if you don't use the CLI you don't ever need to think about VESTS at all. |

Most importantly, it means that the time required for a new node to sync is vastly reduced, because instead of needing to download every transaction which has ever occurred, they only need to download transactions from the last week or so, along with the account tree which nodes are programmed to share, and they've got all they need to be a full node.
This seems to be the main thing. Bitcoin has a UXTO set, which as near as i can tell is functionally equivalent to the account tree. But it doesn't have any mechanism for sharing that information across nodes. You can run an SPV client and rely on the node to maintain the UXTO set for you, but that's about it. The next step down from there in lightness when it comes to Bitcoin is just running a full node and downloading the entire blockchain. There may be other differences but the main problem is that with this coin being barely developed and maintained it frankly isn't worth anyone's time to analyze it more carefully and truly understand the design and the tradeoffs that are being made. I still hold some XCN coins in the remote hope that it will be have some kind of resurgence someday but frankly it's not looking all that likely. |

Looks like smooth is to afraid of comitting ghe crime of slander to respond.
Actually I'm just bored of you guys posting the same crap about Henry Ford, everyone who looked at the code and concluded it is copied is lying, john-connor is a misunderstood genius, etc. Get some new material. (Not to mention the obvious swarming and forum sliding from the same dozen or so VNL/XVC accounts that reply one after the other on every single one of these threads.) The point has been made here, the evidence has been presented, and the shills have responded only with the same repeated and canned responses. |

I don't know that you can say any particular amount is a lot. New free accounts start with 10 STEEM which translates to something like 80000 vests in the CLI wallet (the web UI doesn't show vests), so I could you could decide how much more than that might be a lot. |

just to clarify I received my MEW funds on request immediately.
Think about it....... why do the funds have to be given back IN THE FIRST PLACE ? Because that was exactly the rules agreed upon when the organization was formed, and then a vote was taken to disband. The coins were all refunded. Does that NOT ring any alarm bells ? No, everything being done as originally agreed does not ring any alarm bells. It really sticks in your craw that everything was done by the book doesn't it? Meaning you have nothing except your made up nonsense. What does ring alarm bells is your highly disturbed behavior. |

and later we found out he simply gave it to Risto to make forum games here with.
(not sure why he needed so much to post a topic here anyway)
That's exactly the opposite of what was stated on the thread. Do you have any evidence to the contrary? Oh i didn't think so. They sure as hell had no right running and giving me a negative rating for this shit either. You sure as hell do deserve being identified as a scammer as long as you post lies as you did above. You are misleading people with made up crap which can very well cost them money if they are stupid enough to believe you. Head on over to Poloniex the official shit coin distributor so you can hand over your picture ID
..to buy ANON coins
There is no picture ID on Poloniex for under $2000 per day. Do you play higher than that? Oh, I didn't think so. There is no picture ID on the bitsquare.io decentralized exchange that supports Monero. |

Or maybe they can hire an ego maniac millionaire who will pour endless funds into the coin ?
..while you vultures financially prey on this poor mentally ill man for your own gain.
I would safely wager you Shill's that loiter around spewing Morono bullshit
simply love the fact a Millionaire has single handily kept this coin alive
and paid for the so called "dev work" you are happy to take payment for.
Had Risto not poured sick amounts of money in the hundreds of thousands of dollars range
plus infinite "donations" non stop for two years you snot nose brat shills would have a dead coin on your hands.
Endless funds? Infinite donations? Paid for the dev work? No. Just no. |

So, in a sense, it is much more difficult to mine any significant amounts of AEON's (or Monero or Bytecoin) and that makes them more valuable...in my view.
It is harder to build massive industrial mines yes. Trying to do so puts you at an economic disadvantage relative to millions or billions of people who already have paid-for CPUs (and to a lesser extent GPUs) that are idle part of the time (assuming they also don't have very high electricity rates, so that leaves some out, but plenty have reasonable or low rates). Botnets are one way that large amounts of coins could potentially be mined by one person or group, but opinions differ on the actual impact and effects. |

But what about, one Microsoft Cloud, 1 million CPU votes?...is this now defeating the CPU based system?
Are they going to shut down their business to mine a coin? As far as the algorithm, and economies of scale, ASICs, centralization, etc. well, nobody really knows for sure. It's well enough designed to hold up reasonably well according to its stated purpose for two years, but there are no guarantees. For now, anyone can mine it. |

I am 55 and atypical I suppose. I will tell you how I use crypto. I am mining etherium, converting to bitcoin through an exchange sending to coinbase and using my Swift card to buy cat food. Monero will need to be that simple or simpler to use. Are there plans to offer a debit card?
Shen's Mininero is designed to integrate nicely with xmr.to (so you can pay any BTC address directly from your XMR wallet) and I think it can be used with the Shift card. The idea being that you keep your value stored privately in XMR but can also spend it using non-private methods (BTC or, via BTC+Shift, fiat) if you choose to do so. |

Help with explaining how this work?
How to create the checksum index from a list of words; can explain it in non c++ terms?
It takes the first N characters of each seed word interpreted using the UTF8 encoding (N=unique prefix length), combines them into one string, computes the crc_32 of the resulting string interpreted as a byte array, and then modulo (remainder) with the word list length. Can you explain further how the UTF8 encoding combines those first N characters into a string. Is there a specific way it does that? is a way to represent characters that sometimes uses more than one byte per character. This code takes (up to) the first N characters regardless of how many bytes each character uses. Once those characters are pulled from the words they are combined using string concatenation into a single large string which is then used as a byte array to calculate a CRC32 checksum Ok, great. I just didn't know it was a simple string concatenation after the encoding. Yeah it's maybe a little confusing but += is just string concatenation in C++:
trimmed_words += Language::utf8prefix(*it, unique_prefix_length);
