rdnkjdi... should I invest in PoW? So the miners, (who are the early adopters) can get rich? Which will lead to No community, no consensus = coin stagnates & dies.
-NXT vs Litecoin? Talk about cherry picking to make your argument about PoS vs PoW.
-This price stability is the result of people at the top of the food chain not selling? You correct! Why? Because they know the price is too low. Thank you Captain Obvious.
You have been accused of FUD in other threads, because where there is smoke, there is fire. Yesterday we have news that REV2 is going to be released and you show up. How convenient. This thread had been FUD-free for the longest time, and now we have a gentleman who is suffering from Dunning–Kruger effect, telling us what a weak community we have here, and our tech will have no impact. What are you basing your metrics on? A feeling? The talking rock by the river?
No KimmyF. I will not listen to him, because I know who he is, and what he is doing. He is talking about absolutes. He is making claims about consensus, that can be applied to almost all the coins, but is cherry picking. How is that a fair discussion? Nobody here knows the future, so why would I listen to an argument that is singling out XC? Its true... he claims not to support any other coin, but its obvious Monero is his baby. Enough with this guy already.
+1 This is so awesome, thanks for backing me up guys. I counted three of you, only 47 more to go until the whole community stands against rijkrstinski  The best thing you can do is... not feed the trolls. Even communicating to trolls make them spill more crud. |

I'm the messiah coming to save your investment !
Ok ... and ? I'm happy you was not at the start of BTC supporting it with your vision and idea ... Just leave ... You do realize that not seeing the "con" side of an investment is a bad idea right? Any coin I decide to invest in I will welcome criticism to. Informed decisions are not blindly optimistic ones We are looking for constructive criticism, not fud. XC has proven itself to be a legitimate currency with high standards for any tech put out publicly. I remember you were a very active member in one of the fud threads. Further you did not listen to our answer and took your own conclusions. It's mostly because I've not seen any real answers. I do have a question - how does XChat compare to Bitmessage - does it offer better anonymity and if so how? It's funny you ask that, because even BitMessage is asking for independent audit for their system. Do YOU know how BitMessage is really anonymous and good in any way? How do you compare one system to another when both systems are not at the audited phase yet? Bc one is open source? So what if it's open source? The question is... even if it's open source, do YOU know how secure it is. BitMessage is still awaiting independent audit themselves like I said. Even if both are open source, if both have not been audited independently... you don't really know how secure it is. eg. there is nothing to quantify against each other. It's like arguing about who's lawn is greener without a spectrophotometer or... who can throw the ball faster without a calibrated radar gun. We are just not at the point to ask questions like that yet. |

His point is that he needs cheap coins to make huge profit again. So he is making some fud. That's all.
Think you are misintepreting him. I read it as XC is a good coin and he made a lot of money during the super rise phase. He's just saying there are scam coins everywhere else. He's not saying XC is a scam coin. |

I encountered a website that was able to track the general location of the XC nodes.
I cannot seem to find it again, can anyone help?
Wouldn't such function be evidence of IP addresses being stored in the system? I think it can track the old wallets, Pre-TOR. I was using one before I updated. It told me there was a one node in my country. I suspected it was mine. FOUND IT! http://bitinfocharts.com/x11coin/nodes-active/I am living in Nicuargua, but since I updated my Xcurrency.Conf file, it cannot find me. I know for a fact that's absolutely inaccurate because it doesn't even have a node in my state and I definitely have more than 1 running. [/quote Cut and paste this to you xcurrency.conf file, make a backup. then check again. server=1 listen=1 rpcuser=username rpcpassword=password rpcport=32347 addnode=east01.xcnode.xc-official.com addnode=west01.xcnode.xc-official.com addnode=west02.xcnode.xc-official.com I have always had those settings in my conf file. Only difference is the rpcuser and rpcpassword of course. |

***Rev 2***
The final Rev 2 release, which you've all been waiting for, will be released in two weeks' time from today.
It will include a fair bit of new technology, which of course we'll make known to you.
It puts XC's tech way into the stratosphere.
You can also expect incremental releases leading up to the final release.
Stay tuned.
For those who weren't around yesterday: And after these news, some people dumped 19 BTC (2.7-7.2 BTC at once) worth of XC in last 8 hours @ MintPal. Hopefully that was a bad decision on their front. Some people always need btc to chase the next pump and dump. You can never understand those people. |

No you will not even be able to use the mobile app in two weeks. Final Revision 2 is coming out in two weeks. We are testing the app internally and thats it.
Will that final rev 2 include rev 2.5 too with new UI preview? Believe it or not, Rev 2.5 comes after Rev 2. Shocking! 2.5 > 2? Who would have thunk it? (integer math ?)  |
|
|
|
Can someone confirm if the mobile app will have staking? I guess it will able to act as a node, but staking might eat to much resources. Great news guys, keep it up ! 
And there is some other news in the pipeline as well, we are currently testing the mobile app, with XChat, XNode and staking. Its not quite ready yet but stay tuned!!

Can we make voice call via XChat mobile in two weeks? Nobody said that mobile is coming out in 2 weeks. It's just the final Rev 2 is coming out. They are just testing internally the mobile wallet with no release date. Voice is coming in the future post Rev 3. |

Not sure why XC need to join KeyOS. XC should develop itself OS.
You know XC has the TOR stick right? So what? Hmm... The XC Tor stick IS the OS you are talking about... so what? So, you are sounding like a troll. |

KEY is pumping while XC is still.
You probably missed the 7.8 btc dump just now that dumped it down to 52k |

From twitter :
KEY team has hired developer Dan Metcalf of XC for the ongoing Dev of our KEY OS. We're looking forward to more innovation! Thanks Dan!
wtf :/
Designing, Building and Securing operating systems is something I do for a living, and have been since the 90's. This was just a small project in the giant bucket of projects of which XC consumes the majority of. Being in business requires projects both big and small to be successful. I live, breath and eat, XC, all the time - and that will never change. I'm going to take a bite out of the XC Pizza right now... Bam, 10 more XC purchased and safely digested into my wallet  Just bought some more myself too |

Oh, and there'll be some big news about Rev 2 a little later today...
How BIG? HA! So, time to go to MP again then. |

Interestingly... even this super long public key one works for XChat... so maybe you don't even need to recompile your own to support compressed address as long as you use -X 75 for vanitygen.
Address: XXXXXAY4bnJHvSxPeLRqgEY6NVSbAmFHiF
Public key: PBsmxdLALxF8pMhBufpN8xHL57PB7NPeto78ZVPoATGwtNuLt99gyp7NLLBUXKnbr6e3RE7mKfJqhjz 8ZMryN1yh

I've used the vanitygen many times with other coins...
but this time it conflicts with the public key...
I guess we could use cryptogretsky's way with the paper wallet gen.
Actually.... This works... vanitygen -X 75 XChat and it's blazing fast even without using the opencl version since it doesn't work for me (R9 290) yeah, of course it's fast... I generated my xchat adress this way, but when I imported this adres in my wallet and I asked my public key it gave me a public key witch was very long it was even you cryptogretzky who said it didn't work I would like to test something...
I made myself a vanity adress for xchat
would someone please try to contact me over xchat?
adress: XCHATsLztdvJxb2BkrgVuoq7uoC73u6ghj
pubkey: Ro4rYufnJy7RYFnuJBaD1iz5Rrr8o77fyKbcnkAbqC57JCS148WVMabshBjHd1JsZGoJ2JZtj6LYtfP e8bavoY51
(I've noticed that my pub key is really long, that's why I want to test this)
If it works I'll explain it in a tutorial
Said Invalid destination public key I do remember that test. Didn't know you use vanitygen before. The public key is extremely long too for me when I import the uncompressed private key. When I import the compressed private key though, the public key I get back is normal.... of course that defeat the purpose of the vanity address since the search is based on uncompressed address. So... ultimately, will need to modify the vanitygen to make it search based on compressed address instead of uncompressed address. eg. make the following changes in pattern.c len = EC_POINT_point2oct(pgroup, pubkey, POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED, eckey_buf, sizeof(eckey_buf), vxcp->vxc_bnctx); to make it use POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED instead. Now... if only I can compile it.... Ok, I FINALLY got the vanitygen to compile and it also generated compressed address that you can get valid public key out of from the wallet... it's not really for the faint of heart to get it to compile properly on Windows.... total pain in the butt. If someone needs to know how to compile it, I will see if I can reproduce the steps I took to get it to compile (most of the hassle was getting all the libraries that it needed to work) Anyway, a few changes are needed to make it generate compressed address. Luckily, I found a fork of the vanitygen that already has the compressed address changes that is needed. The location of the github is here: https://github.com/WyseNynja/vanitygenTo make it generate valid XC address using this, you will need to use the following command: vanitygen -X 75 -F compressed Xwhatever
I didn't have a chance to compile oclvanitygen to test to see if it works since it won't really run with 13.xx drivers with my R9. You might have better luck than me.... Please note that XC address is base58 encoded so you can't have O (capital O), I (capital i), 0 (zero), l (lowercase L) in your pattern. |

If BTC-e wants to get extremely popular, they should refund his losses or at least partially, that would probably help them more in the long run than this.
Unless this is the bot that has been keeping the price of btc down. |
