Hmm maybe in terms of technical skill I do, but I don't know how good I'd be at actually running the coin. Plus there doesn't seem to be that much interest anymore, even as of last week, there's only like 3 people posting on this thread. Not sure if it'd be worth it to be honest.

I think it's clear sunny has bailed. I don't know why to be honest. I've PMed him a few days ago and he hasn't replied.

I volunteered to do the subcurrencies and was working on it (can see my work so far here: https://github.com/csaftoiu/shinycoin/tree/subcurrencies ). I stopped pending seeing what was going on with primer. I thought all would be fine when mod verified the extortion attempt but looks like sunny has given up?

My experience was that he was pretty disorganized. He would make last-minute changes when a release was due. He would sometimes reply quickly and other times be very unresponsive. Definitely not a reliable dev. Only way forward for this coin is for someone to take over, fork it, change the checkpoint and alert and signing keys. At least code is public now, so if someone really likes the idea they can start a new coin that uses ramhog.

I'd love to see this coin succeed, but it ain't gonna happen unless sunny starts communicating with us! Has anybody tried PMing him?

Hmm can you give a more specific error? What does the javascript console say? PM me if you want to do it not publicly.

I'm sort of skeptical to keep participating at this point, but this was an easy enough change. Here is the money supply URL: http://shinychain.org/shc/api/v1/moneysupply .

Primer any word from the mods? Are they just not going to step in?

Next time take a screenshot. Although even that could be faked if you really had enough motivation. It is pretty unlikely that you posted 1 minute before sunny did just to have the opportunity to edit the post with his message and make this claim up, though. Very suspicious, but I’ll only be 100% convinced when mod confirms your post wasn’t modified.

If sunny is indeed sockpuppeting... then I wish he’d put more effort into legitimately promoting the coin instead of wasting his time like this. I’ve put in a lot of work on this coin already and wanted to see this coin succeed and help it by actually doing development work on it but these antics really undermine the legitimacy of the coin.

Is mod going to post in this thread to confirm whether your post was edited?

There's a bug syncing a wallet that can't mine. Sometimes it gets stuck for minutes. I had to restart it a few times to get it to sync all the way. Also after syncing sometimes it says the checkpoint is too old. If I restart it then the message goes away.

Just compiled the win32-bit wallet, fresh off the presses, tested on a fresh VM and it works!

You can't mine with it, though - even if you have 15 GB of RAM free, it crashes, I tested it. But people with 32-bit windows probably won't have enough RAM anyway.

I'll work on it. I set up my machine to compile 64 bit and it's proven annoying to make both work at once, so I'm just gonna make a VM to compile the 32 bit version. I didn't realize people still used 32 bit computers!

Damn this is one tough block

Any update on your deposits? Looks like it is processing, though slowly (9th confirmation was delayed by a few minutes):



EDIT: Ah didn't see the previous post. Looks like all is well.

It's the beauty of the free market at work =). Sandor got the jump and benefited from being the only pool around. People are unhappy with the monopoly so they will start their own pools. This'll cause the pool fees to go down and will provide choice on which pool someone wants to use. All in all a great way for things to work.

I've sent them 5 shinies. If these don't get confirmed either I'll email or chat them and see what is up. Site *looks* legit, maybe they just having temporary issues with a new coin?

Maybe contact them? The site says they require 10 confirmations for shiny and your transaction has 12 so it should have gone through.

Awesome!

Alriiiight, I figured out how transifex works and I made the i18n project: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/shinycoin/ .

To translators: All you have to do is go to the link, click "Help Translate 'ShinyCoin'", make a username. I'll approve you, then you can get cracking. I'll update my git branch periodically ( https://github.com/csaftoiu/shinycoin/commits/i18n ), and make pull requests to the main repo when there's a good amount of translations done. Or sunnyprince, you can pull the files yourself also (merge my changes, then use "tx pull -a" to pull new translations).

EDIT: Can test existing translations with the -lang flag, e.g.
    ./shinycoin-qt -lang=zh_CN

Lol nice diversionary tactic. But the proof is there - you are a sockpuppet for the dev. So what features are you going to put into ShinyCoin next?

O really? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=255782.msg5267476#msg5267476


Looks like we are all the dev =O.

Oh shit you're right! Haha. I thought you were just making stuff up again, cause really double-spacing is not my style. I would not have guessed I actually did it. It looks too weird to me.
