261  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 Premined ★ TRADED ON CRYPTSY ★ GAME INSIDE WALLET on: March 20, 2014, 04:56:31 PM
I think focus on this coin needs to shift away from the wallet... the wallet is simply a place to hold coins... people are not looking to play a game or exchange crypto within a wallet... there are full-blown websites dedicated to both these tasks. I want to develop services that actually USE the coin... e.g. the site I'm working on now: http://flappyapi.com/

Hey bud, didn't realize that was you making that site. We will have to talk about mobile games. I can help out with Android and computer games

Thanks! I'm very interested in helping game developers integrate coin wallets, coin transfers between players, etc.  especially Android since I know how to build apps in that environment and can help game developers understand crypto beyond the 50% point.  

The ironic thing is that crypto-currency was originally conceived in the gaming world... and now here we have a crypto-currency that we want the gaming world to adopt! Wink

It's a very hard sell... the average game player may get lucky and build up some coins... but getting them to understand how to convert FLAP (or even DOGE/BITCOIN for that matter) into actual $$$ is a major roadblock... it's PLAY money to them unless they see a clear way to cash out in $$$.

FLAP is at the bottom of the list on http://coinwarz.com and hasn't completely dropped off the list because it's still attached to the closed FLAP/BTC market on Poloniex @1sat. FLAP will hit 50,000 blocks in a matter of hours making 25% of it's total possible coins worth ~US$75K (according to http://coinmarketcap.com).

The developer of the Flappy Bird game reports making US$50K/day from in-game ad clicks... if I was the developer of the Flappy Bird game (making US$50K/day) why would I care to integrate my game into this coin? The coin is essentially 25% pre-mined now and has a total market cap worth less than 2 days revenue from ad clicks!

If the Flappy Bird game developer was truly interested in integrating crypto-currency into his game (don't forget he has very deep cash pockets... he's making over US$1million per month)... he could easily hire talent and create a new coin and pre-mine it 25% for himself alone.

increase the difficulty please and KGW

Or Block reward halving at block 60000 and removing random reward.

Or fork Dogecoin's latest v1.6 changes... they seem to address all the problems we're having. Does anyone know exactly what coin Flappycoin is forked from?

Dev & dong picture definitely would be good. Not sure if the cap decision was ever made but this coin absolutely needs a cap. Some kind of actual link between the game and the coin would be good as well, simply sharing the logo isn't enough.

Voting closes on the cap on April 21, 2014: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=477815

How about voting closes in a few days?? Let's not wait until the coin is six feet underground in a coffin before we try to resuscitate it here...

+1... the poll has already been open for a month as of today... and there's a 76.7% majority in favor of the cap...  how likely is that to swing the other way when holding the poll open for another month?

I think multipools have stopped mining flap... difficulty has not topped 6.0 for several hours now... lowest I've ever seen it.

Hey I very like your work for Flappy Api!

it is great that you are doing upgrades/updates!

Keep it up! Cheers!

Thanks...  as a coder I've learned a lot about how online wallets, exchanges, etc. are built upon the bitcoin/litecoin wallets. I've wasted a lot of BTC on FLAP but picked up some programming knowledge in the process... education PAID!

Dev support on this coin is so lame... would love to support this coin... but with ZERO word from Dev in 9 days it's fruitless to support this coin. I'll still hold my wallet for a possible pump/dump in the future... you lost me, moving on... goodbye! Smiley

no dev = f@#king joke

I check this thread hourly while I'm awake... just noticed that the original dev has not made a post for 9 days now... I think the coin is a joke to the dev...  so wish I could take over his absent role and make this coin work with active dev participation!

Didn't that guy say he pulled the game off the shelves because he felt guilty that people were playing it too much and wasting time though?

He is considering bringing it back...

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/11/flappy-bird-creator_n_4943874.html

Depending on how FLAP is integrated with his app he could be set up with a nice percentage of the transactions. He probably knows little about crypto-world and has no knowledge how to exchange FLAP to BTC to USD to VND (Vietnamese Dong)...

...that's where we come in!

Dear Devs,

I live in Thailand which allows me a very short and cheap flight to Vietnam. If you truly have a connection with Nguyễn Hà Đông (Dong Nguyen) please hook me up. I will personally show him how to integrate his game with FLAP!

Thanks,
Dan

Help them, message them via here or reddit and see whats happends.

They asked for people like you.

How many coins do you hold?

88 million coins at present... and bought most of those at 4 satoshi... sold all my DOGE for FLAP... so I have great interest in making this coin work... I'm a coder and I can help anyone who wants to help build support for this coin.
274  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 Premined ★ TRADED ON CRYPTSY ★ GAME INSIDE WALLET on: March 18, 2014, 09:10:51 PM
He wants to implement a exchange in the wallet, which would be really sick!

No offence to either you or the dev... but the dev is having problems adding a tab to the wallet that simply launches a URL (http://flappycoin.info/game.html).

Here's the source for that tab:

flappycoin/src/qt/gamepage.cpp

#include "gamepage.h"
#include "ui_gamepage.h"

GamePage::GamePage(QWidget *parent) :
  QWidget(parent),
  ui(new Ui::GamePage)
{
  ui->setupUi(this);
  QWebView *webView = ui->webView;
  webView->settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::JavascriptEnabled, true);
  webView->settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::OfflineWebApplicationCacheEnabled, true);
  webView->settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::LocalStorageEnabled, true);
  // webView->settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::DeveloperExtrasEnabled, true);
  webView->setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
  webView->setFixedSize(430, 580);
  webView->load(QUrl("http://flappycoin.info/game.html"));
}

GamePage::~GamePage()
{
  delete ui;
}


not too complicated... can you really expect the dev to build a full-blown exchange integrated with the blockchain when he's struggling to add and compile a simple link to a website?

They have a real life too, last update was 4 days ago, were the dev had problems fixing the wallet.

He needs help

The dev is not fixing anything... he's trying to add a tab to a perfectly fuctioning wallet that simply launches http://flappycoin.info/game.html within the wallet... it's a pointless effort really as you can open that URL from any web browser and play the game... sort of feels gimmicky as the game doesn't really reside within the wallet... try disconnecting your network connection... you won't be able to play the game from your wallet.  Review my analysis on his source code: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=464743.msg5760639#msg5760639

People, please get over this wallet update stuff... current wallets work great... concern yourself with how this coin be USED!

Devs... PM me... I believe in this coin and I can help you!

Some progress made on http://flappyapi.com. The following public API requests are available:

http://flappyapi.com/currentblock
http://flappyapi.com/nethash
http://flappyapi.com/difficulty

No big deal really.. but I'm now positioned to create something useful for this coin.

FlappyAPI v1 Documentation: http://flappyapi.com/api

Currently holding off on further development of user wallets and private API requests (for integration with merchant sites, online games and mobile apps) until some sort of indication the developers of this coin are still on board.

[EDIT] Will continue to work on this for FLAP as I can easily port this work over to another coin with more active devs. I'll just think of FLAP as a testing environment and I'm lucky to have over 100 million test coins! Wink

Let's be clear that the dev has been offline since March 13 from bitcointalk, and only 3 days from reddit, in which he is working on an exchange wallet. Regardless of what the price is at right now, given the recent disappearance of flappycoin.info and the exchange and difficulty/multipool issues - you'd think he'd be at least want to address this to the community.

Your're not hearing from the developer because the developer is waiting for someone in the community to help resolve a compiler issue http://www.reddit.com/r/flappycoin/comments/20azvv/flappycoinqt_200_is_uploading/cg2ac6t. I've looked at the code on Github (last modified 9 days ago)... and what the developer has done is add a Game tab to the wallet, which is really just a link to the web game:

webView->load(QUrl("http://flappycoin.info/game.html"));

and also made some cosmetic UI changes (logos, coin name, icons, etc.). Since only the qt (UI) side has been modified and not the underlying wallet source... you would think that it would compile easily enough.  

I would like to suggest forgetting about this particular update to the Windows wallet (like I said it's just a link to the game on the website) and get on with the serious development like the game or exchange integrated with the blockchain... however those ideas came from people's wishful thinking and the developer has made no suggestions that he would be integrating anything into the blockchain.

Still, this coin (or any other coin) does not require a new wallet for it to become valuable... it needs a community that cares about the coin's future and that is actively developing services to make use of the coin... at which point the coin becomes valuable.

Concept site: http://flappyapi.com. Back-end development underway. We have to assume game developers have little knowledge of the cyrpto coin world and we should address this by speaking in their same language (e.g. providing them with easy to use code wrappers/libraries)... and some crypto education would go along with that. Fact is they are not looking for us... we need to meet them beyond the half-way point.

Poloniex announced, flap market closed soon, on twitter.

FLAP and CORG are the first markets they have ever announced closing. Buy support for FLAP has dropped 60% in past 48 hours and still dropping... worse can still happen I guess.

Coming soon! flapapi.com... much like dogeapi.com but with an emphases on integration with gaming apps... including open source wrappers/libraries for easy developer integration.
