All I know is I've been dumping everything I can into this coin right now and hoping for BIG MONEY BIG MONEY NO WHAMMY....... STOP!!!! LOL but no seriously great work Mr. Spread and keep doing what you do and make this coin a freaking winner my friend  I see some players getting involved in this coin. I was mining from the beginning but I stopped. I now wish I had continued mining this coin. I have a fair amount but it could have been much more. I see good things ahead for this coin. |

First blocks give 5 coins and halfs into 2.5.
Halfing stops at 1 coins per new block.
Really?
What is this? I'm not really a coder but this doesn't look right.
int64 static GetBlockValue(int nHeight, int64 nFees)
{
int64 nSubsidy = 500 * COIN;
if(nHeight == 2)
{
nSubsidy = 2000000 * COIN;
}
else if(nHeight < 5000)
{
nSubsidy = 5000 * COIN;
}
else if(nHeight < 10000)
{
nSubsidy = 2500 * COIN;
}

Can I just delete the block chain and redownload it?
I have tried the command prompt numerous times with no success.
you might want to add a -printtoconsole to see what it's doing, it takes around 5 minutes. After it updates the whole blockchain you can stop it and restart the gui wallet. There was one wallet that had corrupted blockchain after reindex but it was empty so i just wiped the directory and re-downloaded it. Not sure how to work that out if you have some coins in the wallet  I just don't know what I am doing to be honest. I created a short cut to the desktop just to try something else. i have my command prompt set to open at C:\users\intel\desktop> then when I type the kryptohash-qt.exe --reindex I get 'kryptohash-qt.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I would get that message also when I tried running it to my program files x86 folder or it would say that the file was not found. Go to command prompt cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Kryptohash Core 64-bit enter kryptohash-qt.exe --reindex enter |

If there was a proper funding framework in place this could be improved significantly. As we (and fluffypony in particular), stated it, the issue is not funding (not now), but finding good enough developper and them familiarizing themselves with the code. More money won't make things evolve faster, at least for the coin. Same thing for "code review, cryptography review": code review is being done as we speak, and cryptography review also - we exchange with our academic cryptographer on a litterally daily basis. I did not know Lighthouse, seems interesting sr: "stop trading, baby" ;-) I stand corrected. I thought funding was an issue as it's been brought up before. So you're looking for a good developer and you have a way to compensate them if they are found? It shouldn't be that hard to find a developer looking for work. 1. I have no idea why you think it isn't hard to find good developers. Apart from this project I can tell you that they are not easy to find and almost none are looking for work (some are always looking for better work though, but see #2 below). 2. The biggest issue with developers won't be solved by a little bit of funding here or there. People looking for a full time job are not candidates unless we have a whole lot more funding, because we are light years away from having the sort of ongoing budget that would be needed to hire people in that manner. When hiring people looking for project/freelance work, some work out, some don't (and even the ones who do work out require a lot of involvement with the core team) and it is hard to keep continuity because they have other clients and other potential projects come along. This coin needs to grow, a lot, before it makes sense for the project to be hiring full time people (which would only come with large sponsorship that could only come with growth) or for Monero-related businesses pay people to work on the core technology (as they do for bitcoin). So build software and services, spread the word, and hopefully something significant can begin to take hold. Otherwise we are just fooling ourselves here. Let's face it, a coin -- no matter how good -- doesn't do anything by itself, it can only be useful for doing other things. I suppose I was looking at things from the wrong perspective. Hiring a qualified full time developer is one thing. Hiring a good developer for project/freelance work is entirely different as they may or not continue to be available in the future in which case you would need to go through the process all over again. Which is apparently what you're having to do. |

Even if we assume that 100% of the emission is being dumped every day thats like 20 BTC worth at current prices. Every day we have a volume bigger than that. Today its already 5 times bigger than that.
My explanation is that many people dump in order to rebuy a bit lower each time since they know that the general feeling is that price will continue to go down.
However there will come a point at which they wont be able to rebuy cheaper. Now if this point is 0.0011 or 0.001 or 0.0005 or 0.0001 i dont know...
Still, the only thing that monero really needs is more adoption. Monero has indeed far less supporters than Darkcoin or other shitcoins... So while dev team is working on things that has promised i think supporters must find more ways to make adoption more widespread. Only when adoption starts getting bigger we gonna see some serious stuff going on.
It's not just XMR but other legitimate coins are being sold off while money keeps flowing into ICO's that are nothing more than vaporware. People don't want to wait. They see a snazzy graphic and a bunch of "Change the World" promises and they jump. People are just chasing after the next pump and dump. I posted in this thread some time ago that people were not going to wait months for a GUI or even a decent website. I got berated yet I was correct. People are not going to wait when they see these other coins pop up out of nowhere and soar in value. I have nothing bad to say about the dev team. They all have lives, families, jobs etc... They can't be expected to accomplish these things on their own time for little or no compensation. It's just an unfortunate situation. Monero needed rapid development months ago. The Monero community needs to figure out a way to pay the devs so they can focus on development . Some of those ICO's are raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for nothing more than a concept and a bunch of promises while existing and promising tech flounders for lack of funding. |

Does anybody know what's the hash rate of Monero vs Boolberry, as well as how many miners in both (miner distribution graph?)?
Since they have a different mining algorithm you can't compare the hashrates (don't know for sure). Please correct me if I am wrong. Alright then, is the miner distribution possible? I'd like to compare who is more decentralized. Otherwise, how do we know if these coins aren't all owned by one large mining farm?How do we know any coin isn't owned by one large mining farm? Made in China should be "Mined in China" when talking about altcoins. There is a breakdown of BBR's pool distribution thanks to jwinterm. Here are some network state charts http://boolberry.com/state.html The pool distribution rate is definately a problem. Unfortunately most coins end up with unbalanced pool distribution. If the 20% slice in the chart is solo miners that would be a better rate than most coins which helps even out the lopsided pool distribution somewhat. I keep some GPU's on BBR 24/7 and have been for awhile as do many people. BBR's hashrate is low enough to consistently find blocks. I doubt a large mining farm would bother with BBR due to it's low price and negligible volume on the exchanges. But you never know. I do know that they aren't mining all the coins because some are going into my wallet. I don't know if that helps with your comparison but that chart and the network stats I linked are all I can find that might. Your friendly, monthly reminder to help spread the hash and support the network (and stop making clintar so BBR rich  ). Snapshot taken a few minutes ago:  |

DarkSwift coins have been sent out to their rightful owners. Please check your wallets and let me know if you didn't receive your share Also the buyback page is up now http://darkswift.icohive.com/buyback.phpEverybody who is willing for any reason to refund their investments will be able to do so at this page
waiting for an exchangeUnbelievable. That sums up the sorry state of altcoins. Who cares. As far as it goes seems that my risks are close to zero. If nobody will buy it on exchange - I dump it back to dev - if someone will - I quit with profit. May sound cynical, yes, but I believe in money - I don't care if this is next Bitcoin or another vaporware - if it fills my pockets with BTC's - count me in. For now BuyBack is working so I'll hold on till exchange and see. It's too bad so many people have that same attitude. Because there are actual coins out there that have real world usage potential. Unfortunately they get lumped in with all these "get rich quick" ICO's that have tainted cryptocurrency and turned it into a bastion for scams and ponzi schemes. I guess with over 5 billion dollars fleeing from crypto back to fiat over the last year there will be more and more of these as people continue to fight for scraps and get what they can before the entire altcoin world comes crashing down leaving just a few survivors. |

Interesting.
What started as a free distribution is now nothing more than bickering over which exchange is better from people hoping to make some btc off of coins they got for free. No promotion or anything constructive being done by anyone. The main focus is getting on exchanges hoping to turn nothing into something. Can anyone explain why this coin should be worth anything at all?
Anyway, as you were.
