I remember during PMC where we talked about looking for a pool that would allow you to indirectly mine PMC by mining other currencies, selling them, then buying up PMC. Are there still any POS mining pools around? They used to be quite popular.

Multipool is not needed,you can do it yourself.Mine another coin,sell,and buy PMP.Simple.The problem is,that this coin has no trust among the comunity.Everyone is staking his free coins and waits for a miracle.Go to buy,till the price get higher,there is no problem to get this coin to 1BTC,but you loosers have to invest into it.I have started to buy PMP,and i will invest everything i can mine into it.But one person is too little.What do you think?If you just wait till the price grows,it can happen,that everybody does it=coin is dead.If you buy now for 0.001 BTC tomorrow the price can be 0.1 BTC.The more you buy,the bigger the coin,then will BIttrex or any other exchange add it without any need to vote.

So my friends,if you wanna wait do it,waiting kills coins.In the end,it can happen,you will have 500 PMP without any value.

Well, yes, the coin needs buy support, and what generates buy support is excitement that the value will increase. The coin is gaining new features regularly, and I think it's a great investment for the future of the coin.

There are a lot of security considerations. A few are discussed here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176766.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=524984.0

A low value alt is a good way to test things.

:-)

It sounds like I need to be more concerned about protecting my wallet from the host providers, rather than users of my service. I can protect against SQL injection. I can encrypt database data, but I don't see how I could protect the wallet from the host provider. If the wallet is going to be sending coins, then it's going to have to be unlocked. Even if I keep it locked and only unlock it when needed, it will still be vulnerable.
183  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How does one run a wallet on a server? on: September 20, 2014, 05:26:49 PM
I've done a fair bit of PHP scripting using the jsonRPCCLIENT library, but I've always ran my scripts locally. My intention is to run this for altcoins, not necessarily have a bitcoind command-line to work with, but will have to work with an open wallet.

What do I need to take into consideration? Is there a server mode for wallets? Any help would be appreciated. I'm pretty new to running wallets on servers.

The FUD is strong in this one.

Looks like an effort to drive down the price at this point.

Are we still eligible for the future giveaways if we sell some or all of the coins we got from previous giveaways?

I don't think there's been an official decision on this, but I personally think it should be taken heavily into consideration.

Greetings Customer,

We understand there have been many changes in the market since you ordered from us and many of you are not comfortable with completing your order. After much consideration we have decided to give partial refunds to all customers who desire them as a gesture of goodwill from us. It is of course not possible to refund everybody in full for obvious reasons even if we wanted to (the vast majority of funds have now gone into the production of the miners so the funds remaining to us are limited).  For those who want this it is as simple as replying to this email (payments@alpha-t.net) with all your paid order numbers (deposit and final payment) asking for a refund; be sure to email from the same address as your order with us. If you have orders over multiple email addresses then please send multiple emails for each request (for security reasons). For everybody else it is business as usual; and will be sending out the details of our share scheme soon as well as further updates on our production. We would also like to apologize in the delay of refunds and some payment related queries; this has been resolved so for those waiting on payments most of you can expect your refund/payment issue to be dealt with any day now.

Best Regards,

Mohammed Akram
Director


And here is the key word.
nice one.  This is pretty absurd, essentially offering people 30 cents back on the dollar is absurd!  An obvious trap!

It's damage control. Too many people are winning cases. If you paid in any other way other than bitcoin, then legal action is the best course.
188  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Alpha Technology Litecoin (Scrypt) ASIC Miner Order Batch 1 Now! on: September 18, 2014, 06:42:31 PM
Don't do it. If you accept the paltry partial refund, you'll never see your full refund.

The question is how much is the partial refund going to be and does that include BTC returns?

That sad thing is, some BTC > 0 BTC

Unfortunately, yes. I should have considered that. There's no legal way to get your BTC back that I know of.

I get there's a bit of drama right now, but do we really need so many seperate Monero threads? There's 8 threads on the first page of Alternate cryptocurrencies right now.

A bit much, no?

Nah, every coin should start a new thread here for any given topic imo.

There are multiple topics on price speculation, and two on the whole BCX drama.

193  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best Proof of Stake coins - Voting Poll on: September 18, 2014, 12:49:24 PM
Have to agree. Poll is very much lacking. The fair way would be to put together a list of all the active POS coins, then have poll rounds to determine the best of the bunch.

You forgot the part where you can reply to this thread with your Favorite coin to be added to the list for voting.
This is one way how we can keep this thread on top.

Then I humbly request Premine Plus be added to the poll. Thanks.
194  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: warning !!! This is a liar, please stay away from him!Insults at him! on: September 18, 2014, 11:21:19 AM
This needs to be moved to scam accusations, as that is what this is.
195  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: warning !!! This is a liar, please stay away from him!Insults at him! on: September 18, 2014, 11:12:26 AM
fact is that he didn't keep btc for himself so no scam here.

So if someone pays you to do a job, and you give the money to someone else, he hasn't stolen it? Rubbish. I don't care if the guy is scammer or not. It was his money to begin with.

I suppose you could consider it comeuppance, or justice, but do two wrongs make a right? No. The right thing to do is return the money, and then warn everyone what he was going to do with the money. It isn't his to give away. Stealing from a potential scammer is still stealing. Or are we advocating vigilantism?
196  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: warning !!! This is a liar, please stay away from him!Insults at him! on: September 18, 2014, 11:07:41 AM


I think you should just give him his btc back, if you don't want to do the job for him

+1

Whether he was going to scam with it or not, it's his money, and you've effectively stolen it. How does this make you any better? Give him his BTC back, negatively rep him, and move on.

199  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WTF is happening with Monero ??? on: September 17, 2014, 07:46:40 PM
All coins go through this. Hype, then a slow, steady decline.

Not many altcoins survive the fall. But hey, perhaps now's the time to invest, who knows.
200  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Price of Doge has raised and it is again falling on: September 17, 2014, 07:08:12 PM
This was a nice reaction to the downtrend but probably it will go down again.

Yep. Dodge will continue to have these market movements. Buy low, sell high. Just don't expect doge to go "to da moon".
