IMO, all questions are important but I'd like to know the answer to the third question as I don't see the point to write fake names on the web. I was thinking that Nicolas van Saberhagen is one of the developers
Whos that? Nickolas van Saberhagen (or Nick Szabo) is well-known for his research in digital contracts and digital currency. Interesting that it was suggested that he is the pseudonymous inventor of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. |

How did the BCN team managed to to put fake names on it's team page that you can't even google ? Is this a joke or a game ?
If you want to show some transparency, you are doing it wrong, because the more you post the worst it gets.
First of all let me say that I respect the work behind BCN, and I own some of it.
Having said that. people here is kinda paranoid (me included) and I am sure everybody would be happy if some questions are answered :
- Can you give us some prove of the legitimacy of the blockchain ? There is some open discussion about it but the fact is that we lack facts supporting both positions.
- The mining teams, community, etc ... You mention them several times on your website but again there is no proof of this, can you provide some proof or at least credible sources ?
- Fake names ... really ? I don't think there is a reason to put fake names, just say you want to stay anonymous, people will respect this.
- Development Roadmap, there has been clearly work going on behind the scenes, what more can we expect ?
Hope to hear at least something NEW from the devs.
DStrange, maybe you can make sure this message gets to the devs ... TY
Good question. Hope to see the answer soon, especially, for the last one. IMO, all questions are important but I'd like to know the answer to the third question as I don't see the point to write fake names on the web. I was thinking that Nicolas van Saberhagen is one of the developers |

Happy Birthday BCN, much hope for the year ahead  I need no hope, I made the prediction and estimated the risks. BCN is obviously safe asset. So I'm spending 33% of all my computers' power to mine Bytecoin. Reasonable diversification. Sounds reasonable. JPSelzer, And how you diversify risks across coins? Can you share your best experience ? I am also interested to listen to your experience. And what pc do you have? |

what new Pool has been updated to latest release, check out the new "luck" feature under mean?
http://bcn.extremepool.org. the luck feature is as described, how lucky is the pool in hitting blocks. It also displays this on an individual block basis. nice to see extremepool is always up to date. |

I like both and will probably be investing 50:50 into both. There's no denying that Bytecoin was there first and its devs are more familiar with the code than Monero's devs can ever hope to be, because they, ahem... wrote it. But I also like how Monero is less shady and more transparent and is starting afresh with a more inclusive community whereas Bytecoin has most of its coins mined and held by the early adopters in the deep web community that we don't know anything about. It could just be a small handful of people controlling 80 percent of the coin supply. This to me is the biggest reason why I'm not going 100 percent with Bytecoin because it means that everyone else is pretty much fighting over the twenty percent of the mineable coins that are still remaining plus if only a couple of the darknet whales decided to dump their coins, the value would surely drop.
For the heads up, Satoshi Nakamoto had many many flaws in Bitcoins code in the early days, it was Gavin who helped him make Bitcoin what it is today. So actually, Gavin knows much more about Bitcoin than Satoshi does.... The same applies for Monero/Byte. The bytecoin devs didnt even have a proper cpu miner for the coin and their database was Fucked up. Monero devs cleaned it all up and the Bytecoin devs applied the updates to their own coin.... I wouldn't be surprised if 1 person owns 40% or more of all Bytecoin's in existence...since 80%+ was premined by a few individuals, which truthfully is more fucked up than's NXT's distribution.. Ignore DARKOTA he is a paid shill for DRK and NXT. His posts should be ignored. Look at his post history, pump and dump scam artist. he is pretty stupid as well, seems like he know Satoshi too  Ignore his FUD That's the only thing he is able to do is FUDing BCN as well as XMR fans with no arguments at all. |

hello,how long does it take to instal it on PC? I've looked through the thread and it seems to take a while to sync daemon with the block chain, right? Is it really CPU only? or there is a GUI miner already?
I am far from my Wins and curious does it worth to start mining on mac book? (talking about solo mining)
it may take a couple of hours. Yes, it is only cpu-mining coin. NO GUI MINER. No need! Except there are two GPU miners already... Sometimes you have to research for yourself SimpleMachines, and please don't trust half the gibberish on this forum. In fact, do not trust me! Go find out for yourself. Seriously? Now I feel myself a black sheep  |

As I've already mentioned the coin was simply under conventional business radars that's why there are some mining team who were in the right time in the right place to know about BCN. I doubt this situation is a premine as the definition of premine is that it was mined before the official launch. So, a deepweb launch followed by 2 years of mining is something else but, definitely, not a premine. |

While BCN guys made 3 minor updates.
Would you really like to compare? While just looking around, I read the monero devs fixed a issue where one could recreate the same blockchain, I'm not a coder but obviously that was a fundamental issue. And Bytecoin still has it. They also fixed 87 more issues, while Bytecoin devs "fixed" just 3. Bytecoin is laughable. Bytecoin devs hadnt done shit for cryptonote technology truthfully. They didnt even have a working miner until the monero devs fixed it.. Before approving that Byecoin developers hasn't done anything for CryptoNote you'd better to read what CryptoNote developers tell - http://bitcoinbarbie.com/cryptonote-open-source-technology-concept/CryptoNote Team: "As we’ve mentioned before, CryptoNote team was not interested in building a currency. That is when Bytecoin developers took the lead. They are the team of top notch p2p and cryptocurrency developers, which have been contributing to the sphere for quite some time. They finalized our cryptographic and currency prototypes and coded a beautiful solution to represent CryptoNote." "....the coin was simply under conventional business radars, while Bytecoin devs were wholly obsessed by the technology they were working on and didn’t pay much attention to spreading the word about it." That's simply explains why a very few people knew about Bytecoin. Even people who are interested in altcoins don't know about all of them. That's doesn't mean coins are premine, that's simply mean that you were out of the the project. It was already mentioned in BCN thread that there were a lot of mining team (at least several dozen and no one knows how many people were in these groups) |

Agreed. I'm not a hater of XMR of any kind but this is getting out of hands. Literally in every CN-related topic there are XMR people FUDing BCN. And their arguments are not bulletproof to say the least. Anyway, I think XMR doing a great job promoting CN in it's community but FUD is not a good thing to do. +1 I am sure BCN developers as XMR devs and other coins devs have a considerable number of coins but it's usual situation for real world: a group of people holding a significant share of the coins is likely to stabilize the market, that's why when devs hold some number of coins they are interested in promoting their coin |

Who continues merged mining BCN+FCN ? Just curious Is there another pool except Minergate? I'd like ti switch to a better pool
I know only http://bcn.extremepool.org which was announced many times here |

I didn't know that BCN wiki appeared 2 years ago. I was thinking it has appeared in the same time with Whitepapers. |

YAAAAAASS! Top 10! Now everybody should know Bytecoin is NOT A GAME. It's a SERIOUS BUSINESS! Signed! It's not a game even more. Hope to see new improvements soon. |

Major Bytecoin update Bytecoin source code has been largely updated. 1) The block chain has been moved out of RAM, which cut down the usage from 4 GB to 850 MB. In the next releases it is expected to become as low as 350 MB. 2) The block chain file is now unified across all platforms. When you run the new binaries, the daemon will automatically convert your old block chain to the new format. Your "blockchain.bin" file will be split into 3 files: "blockindexes.dat", "blockscache.dat", "blocks.dat". Next week there will be another significant update! P.S. BCN devs would like to thank all the beta tester from the community that helped them launch this release. https://bytecoin.org/news.php#news1Nice.... finally primary problem was solved. Still looking forward to see gui wallet. |

Sounds great. Now i can follow the movements of my favourite currency! |

OMG! Have never seen. Man, sorry, can't help you. I usually try to refresh daemon and it works for me every time I have problems with connection. As far as I remember I only have problems when I installed bin files on my PC |

This proves exactly nothing. Unless we crack the password and find 100M inside the wallet (or 0). BTW, beware with this site. There are some malware links. Unless... in this case someone is lucky to find out the password that would change his/her balance and, furthermore, would make this situation clear. Let's try our luck? !  If someone to guess right password and open this wallet I think flower1024 would be him. I bet. He is smart enough and that's more important is scrupulous |

Ive told you about the teams, you didnt believe me.. i can add i know at least 3 more quoting teams which were not mentioned
each time can have even more than 20 people, there is no rule on that
How did you get that? Are you the member of one of them?? as according to your post you've been in BCN since 2013 Secondly, what is this idea of top-secret keys no one has heard of?
Several forks of bytecoin have been launched - this type of keys would have surely been mentioned somewhere already.
The basics of the whole philosophy of cryptonote and bytecoin is decentralization and anonimity - there cannot be such a thing as a secret key to destroy coins.
THIS. WTF is going on. How can someone just have his one billion coins deleted by the devs? Nobody ever destroyed any old bytecoins.. my coins are more than year old and are safe, Ive just rechecked them. the devs never communicate with the community, just with the team leaders (something like pools).. and the leaders have to pass the info to their group members. looks like somebodys trolling you.. there are no news about burning, there are no such secret keys to destroy bytecoins. |

In a mood to tell my opinion
I think Bytecoin is the tremendous thing to happen to crypto world since litecoin. It's software is on a higher step than other crypto currencies , it's even much more significant than litecoin.
