Yes Suchpool are Quebecers. I chatted with them briefly in May and they did not seem too excited or inspired by Quebecoin. They run QBC on their pool for profit/BTC and not because they loved the idea – and there’s nothing wrong with that. They looked like a group of fun folks.




We don't have the tool/services in place to even "spend" QBC right now. We're truly like Bitcoin back in 2010 when it was barely known. And we see other crypto-projects/coins evolve around us fucking fast… QBC isn't a coins that can innovate at that speed. Like Snowcrawl said, we don't have the resource required for that... how many developepr will be excited to work on QBC with no promises of a reward that can feed their familly? A very few. Some did already, but  they can't be doing this for ever, they're hungry too you know...

Hope I'm not coming out as a downer lol. Just thinking to myself that there's so much to do, yet so little "spare" time.




I used to exchange e-mail with ML-R every now and then about QBC related stuff. Now she seems extremely busy with her current project so much it looks like she almost forgot about QBC - Ever since she got going on cryptomen lol. That's allright said it before - people will come and go. Some will stick around more thant other. Some will never come etc etc (so much philosophical)

Cryptomen (the service) is setting it's nest up in a huge niche, which HUGE potential. If they manage to pull it off and remain true to their goals, it'll be crazy.

Anyway,

I look at Quebecoins as if it was a share in, not a company, but a very long term project. The amount of QBC being slowly mined, shared, accumulated will remain de same possibly for the next HUNDREDS of years. My only hopes are that QBC be distributed MOSTLY to the population of Quebecers, and then to anyone else who shows or showed interest about it and us. I'm personally collecting considerable amount of QBC with that VERY goal in mind - but I'm not thinking in days, weeks, or even months - I'm thinking in years. :O Cryptocurrencies are freaking new, we'll see a Bitcoin 2.0, we'll see new things we never even thought would be possible, we never imagined. QBC can be anything, but the 21 million share will remain

I agree that a roadmap would be cool. But let’s call it a wish list and not be too hard on the deadlines.  

In another news, as I’ve stated on the French Webpages today… I’m likely to be slowly learning and practicing PowerShell scripting. This might be of good use in the future. For my personal pet project, I’m thinking about trying to make a QBC mining calculator. Sounds so stupid simple, but it took me 1h15 yesterday to get a little form up with two buttons, one that spits the mining difficulty, and one that closes the form. Rofl

Oh also; hello and welcome the the few new entheusiast haha. I'm actually surprised new folks are showing up without anything big happening.

I thought this was some sort of confirmation you guys updated: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=708702.msg8011543#msg8011543

Looks likes the pre-mine lock-down kicked in at block 15242? https://github.com/morinpa/QBC/commit/7958693ed6433191ea04ee479ff6ac7669788d1b


There is no official "dev" for QBC right now. Morinpa worked on the hard fork, but he's not an actual C++ developer AFAIK. Just an IT enthusiast like many of us, but a good one at that! He has done most of the work for a lot of things. Notably the implementation and testing of the hard fork itself, but also the new block-explorer @ http://explorateur-qbc.circonference.ca/ and he started to look into the android wallet.

ML Richard (Circonference) also spent quite a lot of time on this, and then so did GHonyme. But as far as QBC's value went thus far, everyone literally did this voluntarily - at a loss. Yet we're all still kicking around cryptoz! Sure most of us aren’t posting as actively as before, I can assure you no one forgot about QBC and that were going to remain interested in this project for the years to come. So we can only slightly grow from here on.

Not sure about this, but I don't mind the original thread. I think it'll be a great little historical archive in the big crypto-experiment of our time.


Two things on my mind lately:

• We need a QBC mining calculator. There's no quick and easy way to calculate it anymore
• Ideas/brainstorm on how/if we could air-drop QBC cost effectively.

There hasn’t been much discussion about this since the launch. I’m kind of surprised both way; not much trolls trying to bring you down and not a lot of interest being shown publicly. I have a feeling you’re going to have to “prove what you can do” before people trust you.

This could take years to turn up. Are you going to be able to remain relevant, interested and on the ball for so long, if that was to be the case?

My opinion is that you’ll have hard time attracting new speculator until you go through a few round, proving that you’re honest and transparent. But even then, only a small amount of people will dare let you manage their Bitcoin, since most bitcoiners aren’t kidding with their private key. I’ve placed a decent amount of “can afford to lose” money in this service, and I must admit I've been tempted to put some of the “would rather not lose” money in as well. But even with the trust I have in some of the member in this team, I just can’t – too risky and uncertain the moment I no longer am responsible of my BTC. The moment I have someone other than myself to blame if mistake happens.

Do you think we’ll someday have a system/service where one can let you manage their portfolio, but in a safer - easier to trust - way?

Welcome aboard pinballdude.

Quebecoin is totally unknown now. There's about a dozen of people still interested in it. Mining continues no matter what.

I can but only vouch for ML Richard (circonference). She's freaking resourceful and honest (as far as I could tell).

I personally offered her to take care of my portfolio and make a cut on the profits back in July. That's when she told me she was developing something that aimed exactly at this, with some partners. And that's how I ended up with a few BTC in Cryptomen. I took a small step back from crypto ever since. More time spent doing other things rather than hunting the next great coins.

If Cryptomen are successful in what they're trying to do, it'll be quite rewarding to be part of it.

Eager to see how this develop! Nice to see you guys slowly evolve and enhance your services and features.

I said it before; I can totally see that there's a niche for what you're hoping to achieve! And I really wish you well cause I know some of you totally deserve  it.

I'm in for 0.50BTC for this new service. May CF01 pave the way for CF02.

Tres belle comparaison, ca ma fais réfléchir. Avec un peu de chance, quelques curieux finiront par tomber sur notre "sport" et voudront pratiquer la crypto québécoise.

Les temps a venir vons être dure, ca va être silencieux un boute. Va falloir essayer de parler un peu de nous quand BTC va commencer a faire jaser dans nos alentour. Avec les nouvelles d'hier (Paypal, BitPay et etc.) ça regarde bien.

Le niveau de difficulter/ le hashing du réseau est super bas... C'est tellement facil miner du QBC en se moment pour n'importe qui qui possède une "ordi de gaming". Mais c'est dure de les convaincre de:

1. installer tout et figurer comment miner puis
2. croire qu'un jour leur QBC vaudrons plus que l'electricité qu'ils ont dépenser pour les miner.

Y faut rester honnête - personne peux promettre #2. Sauf qu'en 10 ans, toutes sortes d'affaire incroyable/impensable peuvent arriver. Puis bin des fois, les "early adopter" sont récompenser.

Imagine quelqu'un gang a la loterie, puis qui dit: "fucking it! J’achète pour un million $ de cette Crypto-là aujourdhui". Bin, par-exemple, 1 Quebecoin vaudrai plus de 0.43 chaqun s'il venais a bout de tout acheter les 2.3 million de QBC en circulation aujourd’hui. De 0.0001$ at 0.43$... Bon! c'est surment vraiment pas fiable ou realisitque comme mathématique mon exemple, mais y reste qu'avec pas grand chose, QBC pourrai facilement faire faire le saut a certain d'entre nous .

Ou a l'inverse, on reste une douzaine de *geeks rêveurs* sur des forums internet qui récoltes des point virtuelle qui valent rien.

Ou quelque part entre les deux...

Man, you calc was so useful to me... Why has it been down/gone?

You we're the top google search results for X11 mining calc for a while (in my case).

Is this the calm before the crypto storm?

QBC's monthly value is super stable.

Who ever sold 100k QBC at $0.0050 / $0.0030 around august 5th.... nice move. I mean as long as you are buying back at a lower price (0.0030/0.0017).

I haven't paid much attention to crypto lately. Been working on my dirt-bike, riding and working around the house. Winter is coming, enjoying the last bit of nice weather. I have a feeling I am not the only one that's distracted.

Awesome man.

Lot's of good idea. Next time you post something or do some give away on the group, cross-post it to Quebeco.in, I'll add my share to the tipping.

Obviously feel free to offer them to visit Quebeco.in, even thought I'm worried members  of a "francophonie" group will shoot them selves after reading 1 or 2 of my terrible post filled with bad grammar and structure lol.

I too have an address specifically for the Quebeco.in community, but I'm not sure if I should advertise it. And I'm still not sure how I will proceed to share the QBC it contains, but I have a few ideas and I am waiting to see how things develops. We've got a few years a head of us

Quel genre de pas cher

I've sent you a Saint Jean-Baptist (2406 QBC) to your address.

~5.88$ US at the time of transaction.

Pretty nice initiative, I'm willing to add 1k as well.


That's Biguenique's website. I had a few e-mail with him and Rhead back before the fork.

Regarding search optimization, maybe @Same same can give us some tips. 


Indeed. Now it's all about slow progress. It'll take time but I have no doubt the community will grow slowly. People will come and go, some will stick around more actively than others - and this is all right. We have years a head of us to try things and experiment. Just a matter of time till more Quebecers hear about cryptos and hopefully they'll come cross QBC. I'll be there, ready to share some!

Je me demande ce qui a fait grimper le hash si haut? Presque 2GHs??



I wondder what made it peak so high.

hehe. Come say hello every now and then

Throw a 200$ buy wall at the right satoshi and it becomes profitable for people to mine QBC for a few days .

But remember that really, anything can be bought / sold for QBC. Only need the receiver to be interested about it. Some folks paid 10,000 Bitcoins for a pizza not so long ago lol.
