These guys were cheating from the start. Intentionally crippled shit.. Where was this info a week ago?

Umm, that's been posted for more than a month, so I guess it was in the same exact place it is now.

You may want to also look into the code vetting done by Dan Metcalf of XC.

You mean someone who has released only closed source software that closely mimics the anon-tech of darkcoin, which you clearly find lacking. That's OK I think I'll pass.
3685  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency (mandatory upgrade) on: September 21, 2014, 09:37:15 PM
XUC??? WTF is that???

I thought this was XMR... Oh wait.. Its dying.. I get it......

#Stealthcoin for the win.

So instead of choosing to remain ignorant (and I know a lot of people that earn significantly more than 50 BTC a month and similarly choose not to remain ignorant) I clicked on the XUC link. It is a cryptocurrency barwizi is hoping to launch next month to provide a "common" currency between cryptocurrencies. Monero is one of the coins he has selected to participate. Stealthcoin, unfortunately, is not. But I'm sure if you vacate our thread and go back to shilling elsewhere you can beg him to include it. All the best with that, chum, I'm sure your tech advisor can assist you and your 50 BTC a month to beg barwizi for inclusion.

Monero shall be included alongside the veritable likes of Magic Internet Money and Earthcoin. Winning!

Seriously though, I know this is the Monero thread, and I don't mean to feed the trollfolk, but after the nonstop stealthcoin shilling I decided to take a look at their ANN page.

They had a 4 day PoW period, not even four days, and then went completely PoS. At the same time they tout:
Quote
Blocks 11-260 award: 16.0 XST each (4 hr low reward for fair launch)
Fair launch my ass. You can't have a fair distribution of coins if your entire PoW period is practically shorter than the time it takes me to eat a stealth doughnut, digest it, and stealthily shit it out (I have a slow digestive system).

There's no functional anonymous sending, only promises to implement it at some later date. The "stealthtext" sending option apparently relies entirely on servers hosted by the coin's creator; such decentralization!

They also mention several times how the coin has proof-of developer because it's been approved by TheCryptoAsian™, standing along other giants of the cryptoworld like: rootcoin, ethancoin, aerocoin, and roscoin. Sorry, but this bullshit sounds more like proof-of-paying-some-guy-named-TheCryptoAsian™ or proof-of-collusion-with-TheCryptoAsian™. What a load of horseshit. I guess I should dump all my bitcoin because Satoshi didn't make the cut with TheCryptoAsian™.

If you guys are gonna shill nonstop, at least find something that's not such a piece of garbage, ffs.

Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

there are many reasons why I have been and still am confident about by Monero investement but the amount of trolls, haters & FUD around it may be #1

rarely have we seen this amount of naysayers since Bitcoin itself

I find troll volume to be a useful leading indicator.

troll volume currently set by spinal tap to 11 Cheesy

What about the 1% one pool is donating to the development?
Pays hired coders and cryptographers (rfree, tewinget, mikezackles, surae, sarang, etc etc), not the core team

What about other donations?
See above

What about the herding of the Altcoin forum into your gains on the coins you bought cheap and or mined cheap?
I haven't sold any of my XMR

You may want to start selling before you have a cloakcoin v2.0 on your hands.

Candle is green today, Bob. Troll harder.

EDIT: Maybe you could discuss the fix with one of the other core members (or rpietila), I think most of them appreciate what you're doing here.

None of them take me seriously. I am tired of this shit.

You are missing the part where I spent hours (and little sleep) with you going over your work on Sybil attacks and the part (which I posted several hours ago) where I said that I thought you had improved on our work. Very odd.

If you want to offer assistance, it is welcome. If you don't want to help, don't. Either way we could do with a little less drama.

I rather fancy the idea of publishing the sender of every ring signature on the block chain instead at a future date of my choosing.

I warned you don't fuck with me.

I will make sure BBR has the mitigation ready assuming they are still cooperative with me and they don't give my mitigation to XMR.

You are not dealing with BCX any more. You are dealing with me. Capice.

Don't just talk about it, be about it. Or in the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson,

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.

You might want to start ending your posts with your initials surrounded by tildes as well, like ~AnM~. I think it would suit you quite well.
3689  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Come get some free MYR on Sunday reddit tipping thread on: September 21, 2014, 04:12:01 PM
how to mine?  is there any links about getting started

If you don't know anything about mining, this is probably best place to start:
http://myriadplatform.org/simplicity/
Although I think a new simplicity release is coming today or tomorrow, so you might want to wait a day or so.

If you are mining on Windows, there is a new qubit miner that is supposed to be significantly faster than sph-sgminer here:
https://github.com/MaxDZ8/M8M/releases/tag/376-preAlpha

For any algo, I would recommend mining on p2pool, but especially if you are scrypt mining, as that is the only place merge-mining is implemented (if you want some free doge, pesetacoin, syscoin, etc.). Check out the link here if you want to get started merge mining (you can also find p2pool nodes here):

what you say to this?

https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/507427225927708672

things seem bad for XMR right now - ring signatures are dead Chandran Signatures are the way of the future - get out while you can.  XST > XMR

That's from weeks ago.

Also, Chandran signatures *ARE* ring signatures.

They are - my bad - they are also a more efficient type to reduce the bloat by 1/4 of the size.  Its a more efficient way of handling the signatures for real world use at and on a high volume transaction network, which is what you would want for a coin to succeed.   Cryptonote will never be able to achieve this.

Smooth commented on this on another thread (another Monero thread overrun by stealthy people). Chandran signatures are smaller for extremely large mixin values, such as 100, however, for typical real world values of 3-10, Chandran signatures would actually be significantly larger than the ring signatures used by cryptonotes. So, the size of Chandran signatures changes less quickly with mixin value than cryptonote ones, but for typical use cases, they are larger.

Seems like the general consensus by the people who are way smarter then I is that XMR is dead and the code is flawed.  

Wouldn't that imply that everyone in the world believes XMR is dead and the code is flawed? Tongue

Clearly that isn't the case.  Cheesy

CoinO isn't anymore at Poloniex Smiley...

Are there any exchanges still listing it?

I haven't had time to go over everything but I hear there's Scrypt-N FFPGAs now. Do devs plan to respond to this somehow? I haven't looked to deeply into Vert but I was comforted there was another POW coin that was ASIC ( and I thought FFPGA ) resistant.

Devs are supposed to release a new algorithm that will require a hardfork in November or ASAP. Most up-to-date info is on vertcoin.org blog I think.

3697  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XDN] DarkNote [ANN]. duck goes Dark. on: September 21, 2014, 02:13:06 AM
A couple of questions.

1. How long does it take coins to be confirmed and not pending? The wallet shows both actual and pending the same coins.

2. How is a Payment ID obtained and is it necessary to have one?

I have breifly read the white paper. I didn't see explained.

Thanks

One confirmation should just take one block, four minutes I think. It depends what exchange you're using how many confirms they require.

Payment ID is only necessary when sending coins to an exchange or merchant (are there any merchants accepting duck/darknotes?). If you're just sending coins to another person, no need for payment ID. It is just a random hex string that is 64 characters that exchanges (and merchants) assign to users, so they can tell who sent them coins/notes.

Im LOL at all you soon to be bagholders.. Dont you get it? The coin code is flawed. No fighting facts here. If I were you guys I'd be selling all my xmr and hopping into safe bets like btc and stealthcoin.

Its, as simple as that.

"facts"
3699  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XDN] DarkNote [ANN]. duck goes Dark. on: September 21, 2014, 01:43:35 AM
What a shit boy. Why do U is sooooo care about the name?
Why not choose to care about the application?
Because of The price of XMR go down, U choose to attack XDN again and again.

Lol u mad? I don't really care what it's called. I just thought it was strange how the rename came out of nowhere, and that he decided to ripoff darkcoin. If you don't want people commenting on your thread, then self-moderate it.
3700  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XDN] DarkNote [ANN]. duck goes Dark. on: September 21, 2014, 01:20:55 AM
Using the word "DARK" doesn't mean it's a rip off. It's like saying your name is BOB so no one can use the name BOB. Darkcoin is not patented or trademarked. Take your fud somewhere else.

That's exactlty what it means. Someone had an original idea (Darkcooin - dark to mean anonymous in the context of digital currency), and dNote rebranded his coin in a way that blatantly appropriates that other person's idea, i.e. ripped it off. There's no fear, uncertainty, or doubt about it, it's a fact. You're correct, it's not a trademarked term, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a ripoff. I just find it weird that the dev wanted to go from having a relatively original name and branding for the currency to something that is last in line of a series of (mostly shit) coins to ripoff Darkcoin's moniker.
