So you "need" $6 right now in the form of BTC, but want to pay back with paypal?

Sounds like someone is trying to scam..

Ixcoin sure looks like it is dying today. I could be wrong but the price is tanking and is less profitable now to mine Ixcoins than bitcoins.

I'm going to keep watching because I am curious what Thomas believes will happen with this network once the profiting dries up.

It'll be just like namecoin, where people hop on when it's profitable to mine but don't do it otherwise.  Though I think the price of ixcoin will be extremely volatile (compared to namecoin).

That's what the loan was for by the way.... so he could get a license for vBulletin.

Ixcoin breaking the ice sort of speak makes me wonder if we'll start seeing a lot more "mee too" forks.

I'd love to see that, makes for some quick profit if people are buying them far above difficulty ratio.
1846  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ixcoin - a new Bitcoin fork on: August 12, 2011, 03:14:14 PM
Dang, and the mining capacity keeps on increasing...

Pool Hash rate (MHash/second)   84649.9

Hey at the very least this will take some pressure off the bitcoin miners Wink A difficulty DECREASE is very much welcome for a change.

I think difficulty will be going up again shortly... and with another 4x difficulty increase it will not be worth it to mine anymore.
1847  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ixcoin - a new Bitcoin fork on: August 12, 2011, 02:23:21 PM
So... I got this unsolicited email:

Quote
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
.....

... and I'm trying to figure out why my immediate reaction is "yuck."

I guess I just don't see the point of IxCoin.  I just spent some time looking back through all the original poster's messages, and I don't see any prior discussion of goals of IxCoin, how it should be designed, etc.

If the goal is to let more people be early adopters of a new cyber-currency, then it seems to me giving early bitcoin adopters a bunch of IxCoin goes against that goal.


I'm pretty sure you're right about that, the chain doesn't serve any purpose.  People seem to be speculating highly on it.  It's almost twice as profitable to mine ixcoin and trade for bitcoins compared to mining bitcoins currently.
1848  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ixcoin - a new Bitcoin fork on: August 12, 2011, 01:30:40 PM
I think this jump to difficulty 4096 did me in... Any one know when it happened??  My mining output has hit the floor!

Is it still profitable though (in comparison to mining BTC) that is the question?

The math says yes.

A reply is highly unlikely it seems...

1850  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BAMT - Easy persistent USB key based linux for dedicated miners/mining farms on: August 12, 2011, 01:17:17 AM
I can't make Diapolo's latest kernels (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25135.0) work with BAMT's mine script. The 8-4-11 and 8-11-11 kernels work if I start the phoenix miner manually after replacing the default kernel with the new ones, but if I use "/etc/init.d/mine start" the miners just don't do anything. Gpumon shows no activity and the pool doesn't receive any shares. No error messages either.

What happens if you attach to a device in gpumon?  You should be able to see something then.

500,000 Ixcoins for 1 BTC?


That's a generous offer on your part.... I wouldn't go less than 1 mil Ixcoins for 1 BTC.

Also to the OP, did you really just copy everything from bitcoin.org to ixcoin.org?
1854  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Official CGMINER thread - CPU/GPU miner in C for linux/windows/osx on: August 09, 2011, 01:55:27 PM
I was looking through the code, but I'm a little tired right now and can't figure out if this would be an easy change or not...

I want to set it so that it will do a pool rotation, but start it over at the beginning when a new block is detected via LP.
1855  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Free Bitcoins on: August 09, 2011, 01:50:48 AM
Cool, do they really give free bitcoins?

through my site..

It has Linux support?
I dont know what linux is  Embarrassed
But you just sign up through my site
Just lost a little bit of respect for you. Sad

Somehow I'm not surprised by his lack of knowledge.... didn't know what FTP was either not too long ago.

The Bitcoin ecosystem is very, very flaky. And when these semi-anonymous outfits get in trouble, they disappear, rather than paying up.

The better way to put it would be that the bitcoin ecosystem is in it's infancy.  Everything is still very new, there are legitimate operations comes up though, checkout Ruxum.
1858  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a leagal investigation into mybitcoin? on: August 05, 2011, 05:56:34 AM
There's a sticky at the top of the forum about Mybitcoin going into receivership, just in case anyone has missed it.

I'm wondering if it's actually legit.... a week is a long time to wait to post something about getting "hacked".  It could be in response to the starting FBI investigation (I think that's actually happening?).

We'll have to wait and see what's going on to be sure.
1859  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the new Bitcoin phrase: "Sorry we got hacked, your money is gone" on: August 05, 2011, 05:45:28 AM
Ah, great, this looks like a nice thread to hijack instead of starting a whole thread just about the implementation of my own exchanges (which currently is by means of "eggdrop" IRC bots and a perl bot for the Crossfire RPG game).

Is there, in fact, any reasonable alternative to simply coming right out and telling you from the get-go that my exchanges are, of course, going to get hacked, and that that, in fact, is part of why I have implemented them in a do it oneself from home manner?

A kind of "standard open source response", as it were: "hey, if you think my {bots|exchanges} might get hacked, run your own fergoshsakes, heck, gimme the patches if you want even!"

Huh

-MarkM- (Operator of, for example, "NickelBot", which haunts various Freenode #bitcoin* IRC channels...)

What are you trying to do here?
1860  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the new Bitcoin phrase: "Sorry we got hacked, your money is gone" on: August 05, 2011, 05:07:01 AM
The polish exchange Bitomat and have a look at mybitcoin.com

Bitomat lost their wallet because of how the Amazon ECC works.

Mybitcoin probably wasn't hacked.  As it stands, I believe the current guess is that the service was a scam from the start with the owner selling off bitcoins as they came in.

Neither one was hacked, and two sites don't mean "every site" even if both had been hacked.
