So is the fork just about getting control of the coin again? Having to pay in btc doesn't sound like he is committed. Before investing any money I'd suggest workshop a plan.

I think that at this moments, bitcointalk can do more for zetacoin than "zetacoin.cc". probably many people will forget the coin, bitcointalk is moving a lot of people now...


It is unlikely that you will 'forget the coin' unless you don't read the news Tongue Zetacoin is looking for a more mainstream type of community with a gender balance and respectful members. I don't see a lot of that going on around here and it's certainly not moderated in any way shape or form.

Agreed, but is ASC still only on coinex? If so that's pretty much a closed loop. Coins aren't going in and coins aren't coming out.
385  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AsicCoin (ASC) | SHA256 - The coin for ASIC Mining! | No Premine on: April 18, 2014, 03:19:34 AM
It seems this coin was starting to take off again, but then not sure what happened to the enthusiasm. It definitely, needs a DEV and a hard fork to take control of the source code again. I'd also suggest a name change because ASIC isn't really relevant except to this small community, but first you need a real purpose for this coin. Time to put those thinking caps on.

Ideal time is now whilst there isn't much interest in the coin. Obviously there is still plenty of mining going on and 675 million is certainly a reasonable number to work with.

The price of ZET is just another opportunity to buy in low.  Cool
387  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 17, 2014, 02:20:22 AM
Thought I share this here to see what everyone thinks - http://pastebin.com/QcjuY367

If Bitcoinsachs is truly responsible for all the crap listed in that anonymous article he should do as advised and fess up, come clean. Personally I couldn't care less about the guy or his pumping. All this recent noise does nothing to sway my opinion of ZET, I've mined, traded, and still hold it long term. It' s a fun, fast, and solid coin, imo.

I do agree with the below paragraph from that post:

"Some netizens are so worried about the future of Zetacoin because of your history, they have already written it off. I am not so quick to judge, as I think you and the team have done some amazing work thus far and it could (read 'could') have a very bright future as a transactional system to accompany Bitcoin's 'gold' status. This is an AMAZING opportunity. You/we could change many people's lives for the better, forever. Please do not squander it over arrogance, narcissism and hubris."




Wow I can't believe you bought into that dribble, if you are so gullable as to think bitcoinsachs was anyhow involved you are in for a long hard alt coin road. Greed will turn any man into an animal, but give credit to those amongst us that still choose to be men.
388  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 16, 2014, 08:37:53 PM
Just be patient, these things take time, especially in Africa. Just hang on to your ZET  Smiley

Agreed Cheesy

People still seem to think that you rub two sticks together and produce something that the world has never enjoyed before. Development takes time. Big development takes more time.

If nothing was mentioned leading up to this news and all of a sudden the biggest secret was released to the press, you'd all cry that you didn't have time to buy when it was cheap. When you get a little teaser as a hint that you should be accumulating ZET, you cry that the news is never coming.

Thanks Honest Tim for showing us that we still have greedy people about. ZBAD is about making a coin that everyday people can use and they continue to work until that is done.

what happen with zeta ? its crash to .000035 now ? wheres the big news ? is this the big news ? wkwkwkwkwkwkwk

https://coinplorer.com/ZET/Addresses/ZGfz94PBE2D3yhgSSooqMbtSiLNLozYsbv

happened.

btw, that wallet is not M-Pesa or whatever crap that fake article was talking about, nor is it an exchange... but, you probably know that already.

Ehh, good think this wallet is smaller now :p

I'm not sure how to fully read the coinplorer, but it looks like some more splitting of this wallet has occurred. Hey at this stage a cheaper coin is much more attractive anyway. Maybe someone with a bit more experience can investigate the dissolving wallet.

The paper wallet site is very nice:
http://zetacoin.cc/paperwallet/

Lots of cutting edge stuff.

Muahahah! Now we have the paperwallet, I can use the paper plane template to build pre-loaded zetacoin planes and air-drop them somewhere near Iceland. Smiley
391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 15, 2014, 10:24:26 PM
Zetacoin is currently a finalist amongst six coins under consideration for inclusion (to replace Auroracoin) in the ALTDEX - Altcoin Total Market Index.  If you'd like to see Zetacoin become the newest component of the ALTDEX index, go vote on the poll here!

Seriously, we shouldn't need to vote for Zetacoin, as your index would look out dated in a few weeks when Zetacoin is heading further north. I'm tired of having to vote coins in. Just select the coins on their merit.

If you want lap dogs then go see the guys at dogecoin, as I'm sure they can storm the voting queue at will.
392  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 15, 2014, 10:17:04 PM
This coin is going to crash like hell, so far it has a mobile app. They say they are working on a processor but no proof or updates on this.

If you look at Worldcoin, the android wallet has been funded and there's a payment API in the works, an exchange being developed, there's a crowdfunding site and there's a team of 10+ yet Zetacoin is double the price, has empty social feeds and barely and services that accept it. It's a time bomb waiting to happen and I'm staying far far away from the empty promises.

The zetacoin wallet was funded in jan, and it took sometime to produce but we got there in the end. A payment processor is closer than you think and SimplyCrypto.com is an exchange worth watching out for. Merchandise will follow, and then we ramp up. ZBAD has always suggested that the infrastructure comes first, the next stage will then be so much easier.

Zetacoin is double the price because we actually have a vision for the coin. Good luck trying to get people to sell zetacoin before any formal announcement is released.
393  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 14, 2014, 09:31:12 PM
It's likely that when the formal announcement comes out, people will cash out of BlackCoin and then jump straight back into Zetacoin. Hopefully, bringing their sweet profits with them Smiley
394  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 11, 2014, 07:56:33 AM
some math for us all.

55million x 0.00001 btc = 550btc

7.5mil zeta moved and sold near the top, lets say an AVG of 0.00006btc = 450btc




But we are forgetting the biggest equation of all

How much did someone SPEND to get 55 million ZET in the first place? Either someone with money already or someone with a lot of mining power, either way I don't think they are hard up for cash to create a P&D and instead is a serious long-term investor.

Or its an exchange wallet, which is my personal belief.

I love this speculation on the big bag holder, if someone bought into it would have taken months as large purchases would have increased price dramatically. Mining that amount would have also taken months, due to the rapidly increasing difficulty.

There was no premine so it has to be a collection of a number of owners. Ie. An exchange

Should we all simultaneously take our coins out of cryptsy to see what happens?
395  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 10, 2014, 12:05:45 AM
If true this is a game changer for sure.  Would put zeta right behind btc and ltc.  

FTFY

Agreed, what has LTC ever done that is news worthy. Now they are trying to secure their future by proposed merge mining with Dogecoin. If I was running dogecoin, I'd steer clear of that path. Dogecoin can run on it's own four feet. Cheesy
396  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 09, 2014, 11:45:41 AM
Thanks for keeping on top of the coin development Giskard. Cheesy
397  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 09, 2014, 05:04:09 AM
Someone tried to scam the zetacoin community with 'Zetorg' as well, unfortunately people believe what they want to believe.  The ZBAD group are taking measures to ensure that due diligence is taken with respect to new zetacoin businesses posted here.
398  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 09, 2014, 04:00:20 AM
Yes, I'm committed to Zetacoin  Shocked

Until the cryto community understand how marketing works we are all doomed. Ever wondered why KFC, McDonalds, Burger King, Pizza Hut all operate on the same corners?

It's because regardless of the potential competion they all benefit from people be in the same area. Sure only one gets the sale, but maybe next time it's them. You certainly don't see people hanging around outside holding signs bagging the other stores. That would be bad for there profile. Crypto is no different.
399  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 coin - Quick confirmations on: April 09, 2014, 03:32:24 AM

These are my quotes, I've bought and sold Zetacoin lately because it's easy to make some gains right now on this coin... But any profits I'm using to buy more Quark and Mintcoin.  It's easier to see how these coins offer potential and innovation as Bitcoin alternatives. It's also easier to see on reddit and on this forum how the community is participating in the building of these coins. These are my picks but you might have others, that's fine.

Again though if you could explain why the price has risen so suddenly for Zetacoin based on some 'rumours' then people wouldn't be suspicious that this is some dirty trick being played out.

Everyone has their own ideas about which coin has value. Thanks for trading in Zetacoin and I'm glad you made some profits. Smiley

Unfortunately, your alt coins are stifled by the reddit and bitcointalk dome.  It's easy to lose perspective on how little the other 7+ billion people in world perceive your favoured coins. Obviously you aren't aware that ZBAD is working outside of these walls and are looking for real adoption by real people.  That's perhaps why the hype updates haven't been as frequent as you are use to in these arenas.

Quite frankly, we need a better spread of coins, so you selling your coins has helped that goal in some small way. Again Thanks! and good luck with quark and mintcoin. (Hopefully you sold out of them before losing almost 50% of their value in the last month)

Zetacoin  has all of the earmarks of a concerted plan to increase the price-per-coin while leaving people who don’t know better holding the bag.

This strategy is extremely effective, it relies almost exclusively on hype and misdirection, and is extremely low on fact. This Wikipedia article is a good starting point to understand the dynamics for any micro-cap stock. This type of scam is illegal in the US, and many other jurisdictions, but because Crypto Currencies are for the most part unregulated people are preying on unsophisticated investors. The general flow is as follows.

1 – Buy a bunch of some random non descript alt-coin or start your own. For an existing currency like Zetacoin you probably want to slowly buy into it so as not to disrupt the price. If you buy too much too fast people are going to notice that there is manipulation at play. A good example of this is the number one Zetacoin address by value ZGfz94PBE2D3yhgSSooqMbtSiLNLozYsbv which at this time is worth approximately 1.5 million USD. Here is the link to the very first transaction for that address. Notice how the owner systematically accrues 50,000 ZET every 4 minutes. That is until yesterday at 6:26 PM where the owner starts offloading and reaping the profits, $456,000 of other peoples money at the time of this writing.

2 – Get suckers into the game. Start building a hype machine via your blog, pull people in on Twitter who can push your penny-stock. Just check the #Zetacoin hashtag for an unending stream of non-fact on twitter Some choice selections:

“When people eventually start to dig into what the #Zetacoin community has done they are not going to believe it.”

“#ZBAD’s motto of #BuyHoldBuild is starting to make sense to everyone else. True value of a coin is in application not speculation #zetacoin”

“I’m all about community that’s why i believe in #blackcoin and now #zetacoin”

“#zetacoin is a screaming buy even without knowing anything concrete.Hype/rumours to 2k,the breaking news will easily bring it to 20k #HUGE”

3 – Offer no concrete facts. The thing that is nice about talking about community is that you don’t have to back it up with anything. You don’t have to say where or how Zetacoin is different from anyone else. You don’t have to point to real world examples of use. In fact, you can pretty much manufacture a community of users overnight. Let’s take a look at the Zetacoin “community”.

Zeta-coin.org has a News section with 2 bullet points since 2013. Not seeming very active to me.

Twitter 6445 followers. That seems pretty sizable. The thing is you can buy a few hundred twitter followers for a few bucks, so difficult to tell if that is real community or not. There seem to be only a few very active in the PUMP. Zetacoin themselves say that over 500k has been traded in 24 hours! The vast majority being sold as the PUMPER takes the profit.

Github Has almost no changes since it was forked from Bitcoin. For a developer community working on something game changing this is also a red flag.

Forum. The Zeta-coin forum has less than 100 total posts on it.

OK, what about Reddit Ah. A very little going on, but 157 active readers!…

4 – Be anonymous. Beware when people don’t put their real name on a project, it says a lot about it when the creators are basically unknown. Remember, you have to avoid legal liability later. If there isn’t a name associated with the coin, someone who has something to lose if it goes belly up, buyer beware.

5 – Promise something big in the future. The main proponents talk a big game, that is all part of the hype machine. Examples:

“His project was a complete and utter GAME CHANGER.”

“Within 4 days Zetacoin was the hottest crypto in the community. Within 5 days the twitter feed was running red hot with Zetacoin talk.”

“Most of you have figured out that there is something big, and that there is a third party involved.”

“We have an opportunity to walk the talk that the community keeps mouthing.”

This is called bullshit. Unadulterated, useless drivel. Just look at the charts. Read the block chain. At the end of the day there is no news that should result in a 700% increase overnight. If you are investing in Zetacoin you just made somebody else Rich. Shame on you guys, you know who you are. People need to be aware that what is old is new again, the pump-and-dump penny stock scam is alive and well in Crypto currency!

http://www.brantonbits.com/blog/2014/04/07/altcoin-pump-and-dump-scams/



Wow Unclebobs, you've got quite a lot to say on the matter. Which coin are you with these days Quark or XCP Finished bagging Darkcoin and now moving onto the next best thing. Maybe you are hoping for a down turn in the ZET market so that you can move over to a more popular coin. Hell, sell your crap coins now and buy something with potential.

However, I like your point about a 700% overnight increase, it seems outrageous. What the, that's like zetacoin going from $0.005 cents to $0.03 cents .lol

Keep the comedy coming 'bro Cheesy
