602  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: April 24, 2016, 10:28:49 AM
Would like to sell 230000 AEON. Preferably OTC as I don't really want to crash the price down to 0.000009.

Flexible on price but must be bought as one bulk purchase.

Message me all offers. I'll be around for a bit today.

Did anything happen with this?

Did we see 230T move on the blockchain?

For the record, it was I that purchased the 230k.

I think Aeon is a great risk/reward play myself. I managed to buy a few while the price has been weaker. Good luck with your purchase.

HI all...just popping in to say hello again.
I still like this coin,it looks cheap compared to similar coins. Has there been any news I've missed of late?

Are miners making money? I suspect you'd have to get the mix right.
I own some shares in this company  https://digitalx.com/  who tried to make money mining (in Iceland IIRC) and they gave up as they could not make money.

607  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why the darkcoin/dash instamine matters on: April 10, 2016, 06:22:10 AM
Let's say crypto continues to grow. More and more people get interested and it becomes widespread. It's possible.
If Dash starts to become more widespread rather than it's very narrow following (as is the case with even Bitcoin), then at some stage a journalist will ask for an explanation.

What will Evan say?

Until that happens I'm still bullish on dash, as most of the coins seems to be tied up in MN's so supply is short and having so many nodes is attractive. But I think it may all come unstuck one day

Thanks guys. I might check out the forum. I've been buying a small number so might as well.
609  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] FoldingCoin - Mine for medicine, Scrypt and SHA256 ASIC proof on: April 07, 2016, 03:55:07 AM
So...
1. There will be 1 billion coins in total?
2.There are 350,000,000 now?

When all 1 Billion coins have been released will "folders" get anything?

The 1,000,000,000 FLDC have already been issued and the asset is locked, so no more coins can be issued in the future. 500,000 FLDC are distributed to folders per day.

Thanks. So 500,000 FLDC (or a lesser amount after time)  will be issued every day, until they  are all issued …then no more will be issued?  But people maintaining the network will get fees after that?

Thanks for that. I’ll have read of it.
One thing I don’t understand is how a “hyperledger” works…do you understand it?
From the link above…
Quote
Others, like Hyperledger, predetermine a primary rotation for the entities that will order transactions and closely monitor behavior for erroneous or malicious activity (Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance, ‘PBFT’).

What are some of the issues with a private blockchains?  

Is this a serious question?  Private chains/federated chains = counterparty risk, central point of failure, no anti-fragile attributes, no reason for anyone to keep the system up and running if it's no longer profitable or beneficial to the federated administrator.  The list goes on?  The fact that the "trusted parties" can cease functionality of the chain at will makes it impossible to use as a real store of value unless the counterparty is maybe the government and you're already forced or held hostage to "trust" them.  But those systems already exist...it's called central banker IOU notes.

Using the blockchain to recreate legacy financial systems is a Rube Goldberg machine.
I don’t see these things  as necessarily  an issue for an entity like the ASX though. The members would run nodes, and as it can’t be changed it could not be the only record.
Some of these  things are touched on  here.

I notice that the Australian Securities exchange  have selected Digital Asset Holdings to develop a private blockchain for settlement purposes.

This coin looks interesting particularly with the high usage of similar mobile apps in Africa.

What I can't understand is why any coin would want 10% growth per year for stakers. Nothing grows at 10% year after year. This sort of growth seems out of touch. But good luck with the project
Thanks for the interest in the project.

There was a time not so long ago that bank savings accounts were offering 4-6% growth per year. 10% is meant to encourage people to get financially involved with the currency and consider holding on to it rather than immediately cashing everything straight out to fiat.

I don't see it being out of touch. It's meant to be a very enticing incentive to get involved with Kobocoin. We have to offer more than fiat currencies are prepared to offer or what's the point?

Thank you for your thoughtful reply.
I was interested in this coin because previous to reading about it I was aware of the tremendous growth of Africans using payment methods from mobile phones so it's very interesting if one could get some interest in Africa.
I can see the point of making the growth (up to ) 10% in the short term, but I'd argue that in the long term anything that grows 10% per year will run into a whole host of problems on planet earth where that sort of organic growth is unsustainable.
But maybe only 20% of people will stake which makes it more in line IMHO.
But I guess everything in crypto is an experiment anyway, and I may not be right...but without doing the math I suspect I could be
