what about sources? i need a wallet for OSX, and I'm willing to compile it myself, but i need fckin sources.
this coin is a joke or what? the devs are not serious.

They had the right idea (the fact the MAX is a scam) but no idea how to make it happen.

Nice mining... Perfect lauch!

Far from a perfect launch. This is a Windows-only coin.

So much for a fair launch.

So, no source and no linux wallet at launch? Just Windows?

No offense to the honest pool owners, but, by releasing source code to pools prior to launch you are just trusting that a stranger isn't going to start solo mining early...why wouldn't they get a few minutes head start?

A fair launch would be source code AND a functioning, tested wallet (preferably all QT available) for all major operating systems at launch. This would include Windows, Linux and Mac.

- Source-only launch gives an unfair advantage to linux miners (myself included). It's not as simple for Mac and Windows users to build the clients.
- CLI-only launch still gives linux miners a slight advantage.
- Setting up pools for the launch trusts that none of the pool operators will build a personal wallet/daemon and mine early.

If he dumped all his coins he made at least 50 bitcoins. Not so bad.

Read the thread - I repeat again. He has given more than 60% to bounties and giveaways - it has been checked by block explorer many times.

Read from the beginning...

The premine was 1% of 50,000,000,000 coins, or 500,000,000 to start.

What amounts were sent as bounties and giveaways from the 500 million? Even if 60% was given away (which is still far too low) that leaves approximately 200 million.

  • Checking the block explorer only confirms coins were sent to another wallet address. It doesn't tell you the owner.
  • 192-200 million remaining still makes up a large (too large) percentage of total coins in circulation.
  • The "devs" wallet that had 600 million in it is now empty.

You guys were mislead from the start.

Will this coin survive?

I don't know. The dev disappeared when his inspiration and presence is needed. Let's count how many of us have stayed here. We need cooperation right now. Post your ideas, let's try to do smth on our own concerning the advertising of GRA.

Probably cashed out his 192 million premined coins and left you guys on your own. That was the plan from the beginning...

The premine % when compared to the distribution schedule was a joke. There was no transparency with the premine.

Don't think so. There is not that amount of money to do so for Bosian. Grain even didn't reach any kind of normal price. The only thing I do not understand is that he doesn't come at least once a day to keep people optimistic.

With 192 million, you don't have to wait for a "normal price" to dump your coins over time. Even at the current prices...1 million here, 2 million there adds up to several BTC quickly.

Regardless, GRA is worthless with the dev still potentially controlling an unknown "large" amount of total coins in circulation. Why would you mine when the dev is making more on PoS than you can ever make through PoW? Why would you buy in when the dev could dump at any time?

As far as the "developer" deserving such a large premine....that's a joke. He borrowed work from other project and stuck a new picture on it...

Yep, I'm sure exchanges will accept a coin named after a defunct illegal drug marketplace. Also 2.5% premine and already an IPO.

Its actually more like 1.5% given that 1% is being given away as an IPO.

No, it's actually 2.5% because you are not giving it away, you are selling it in the IPO.

Interesting 2-prong approach at a scam coin.

If you do decide to allow solo-mining only for the start of the launch, will you please release a linux QT wallet at the same time?

Without access to a wallet or a pool, we will have no way to mine on launch.

Also, if you are allowing pools but no linux QT at the launch why not distribute the source code 1-2 minutes _before_ the Windows QT release? We will still have to download and build the client.

I'm loving mining this!  My rigs are super cool and quiet thanks to the much lower intensities I can mine at.  I can even use my main PC while I'm mining again.  Hopefully this coin has legs, even if it gets back in line with Scrypt coins in profitability, I definitely see myself sticking around here. 

Get out while you can.

Monday is Feb 10th. Today is the 8th.

Is it the 8th or Monday?

Why is anyone surprised that a half-assed coin from some no-name media personality isn't taking off like the next doge?

This should have been expected. No one cares about Max Kaiser or the fact that he has a big enough ego to name a coin after himself... Most people have never heard of him before.

great, going for a good price too

Unless the price is 0, it's not worth it.

Received a full refund of NUT.

I had another 38k in HBC also, but no wallet to withdraw to right now.

it took too long for you guys to reach it xD

a week ago you could've mined 1M/day / 1mh/s lol

Yup, about a week ago we were sitting on about 34 net hash. The times changed quick, that being said, I hear some complaining that the net hash isn't going up very fast, but you need to consider how many coins there are on the market right now, then think about how relatively new scrypt mining is as a whole v. how many total active miners there are world wide. I'd be surprised to hear that there's more than 500k active scrypt miners world wide and it wouldn't be surprised if someone told me it was closer to 250k miners divided amongst all the different coins out there. There's a lot of competition between the various coins for miners and you know the big guys (LiteCoin and some others) have a lot of the total net hash in their pocket. I'll be happy with just slow steady growth, but don't be surprised it there aren't some ups and downs along the way, I won't be.

I know the rate of growth of hash rate doesn't matter if the growth occurs. But the dev doesn't seem to occupied on this coin. He hasn't really posted in the topic for a few days. Or has given us any updates for the past few days also. However, I am still happily mining this coin for a few more days to see what happens.

I agree, the dev. could do a little better job of keeping people better informed with actual numbers of coins mined rather than the clock mechanism we seem to have now, because I think 1 billion is a stretch. I sat and added the coins generated in the top 25 blockfinders on the Bitember pool the other day and it's not even 200m, so unless there's a ton of single mining being done or a lot of premined coins that we can't see, the 1 billion coins mined is a fantasy of epic proportions. It would also be nice to hear about what it is he's working on to help point us in a direction to plan for or look forward to.  Undecided

Total number of coins is easy. You can get the current block number from your wallet, then multiply by 20,000 (block reward).

Remember, bitember was the smaller of the pools. The other pool closed registrations for a while to help distribute net hash.

Also, pools didn't open until after mining started. I wouldn't be surprised if 100M coins were mined before the first pool opened.

Problem with the linux wallet. No matter how it is configured, cgminer will not connect.
