Any brainstorms on how to more smoothly accept EAC for a online store?  I was thinking of creating a Earthcoin coupon,  so you could submit a $0.0 USD order,  Then the buyer would be responsible for converting the EAC 'value' against USD at that time then sending a EAC payment to a wallet I would manage.   I would then green-light the order after it was submitted then paid for.   

Its crude... to crude for a professional solution, I don't mind doing this by hand a few dozen times.  But we have got to work out a better way.

I think everyone whom sells in the next several weeks because of lack of crypsty, low prices or any of the other cited complaints:  will find themselves wishing they had held and stayed in the game.   I am also not thrilled about how many things are going with EAC however EAC as always been poised to be a long-term project.   I think good things come to those who wait.    

Devs have I believe less than 200M coins left,  There is 650M  total market cap, with more everyday.    So everytime the devs sell/give/reward/trade they are diminishing their power over the currency.

What I don't understand is why people don't view the devs holding a stack of coin as a positive asset towards the coins future.   Bitcoin and LTC 'made' it.   They've garnered enough value through existence that there is a steady demand to hold value.   EAC or any other new coin has no value unless its earned.  Who is going to work for that value?   Miners that would just assuming skin it alive to make a fraction of a BTC?   Or someone(s) who see much bigger gains in the long-run.

Who is even going to line the devs pockets when they dump?  Where is there a line of investors waiting to goobble up 60M EAC at $.25 USD per coin?    Cryptsy isn't going to produce new demand (not much)  If this is a Dev-pump-scam-coin  then they have already failed to cash out so why are they posting here and continuing to work with the community?    How does working on a Android wallet get them closer to that 'magical hey we are rich from dumping coins on gullible loosers' goal they are after?    

I think the real money is putting some ass into this thing and trying to give it wings and see if it can fly,  Or even glide a little.   Yeah lets start with glide.

These prices are insane, now I'm tempted to beg/borrow/steal so I can buy up more of this slack!  From a strictly cold-investment standpoint this will advance my position and lower my median.   I'm curious why no one else is moving at least a few BTC in here and keeping this market propped up.

I'm a pretty big fan of Earthcoin,  Its not perfect and I have mined it solid basically since launch.  However now that I have a little pouch full of EAC I am going to start mining something else,  Either LTC or BTB likely and let it ride for a while so I don't have to babysit my miners as much. 

I like EAC, but maybe you should mine it for a few days and then do WDC?   I think diversity can be healthy too!

I've been watching this.    And because you don't want your 'stuff' to get copied you are asking us to pay you nearly $1.00 a Khash for you to 'host' your scrypt miners?

A major portion of securing the risk of Scrypt mining is having hardware in hand that is able to be re-sold at varying degrees of depreciation.  Even if your price was  cut by 2/3rds I would still consider increasing my GPU's a more calculated and secured risk.   I have total control over my investment and truthfully I can increase my hashing power at a lower price.   The cost of electricity is obviously a factor but  I suspect most serious miners have found solutions to get power more affordably. (coop buying, commercial rates etc)

And then we have next-gen GPU's which maybe be even more hash per dollar than our best previous ones.   All of which will depreciate slowly and have manageable risk profiles.

I'm not against scrypt asics,  I would LOVE to get my hands on some.  And it looks like you are kicking butt here.  I'm ready to double down on crypto-currencies.  But short of physically coming to see your stuff I need it in my hands immediately.

I'm thinking about putting a little mental and computer energy into XPM,  Can you guys tell me in your own words where you this coin is and where it is heading?   I love many of these new alt-coins.   XPM just sounds good and I'm not going after any cpu-centric coins yet.   What do you think?

Not dying,  I think they are hopping actually.    I think Alt-coin is the new wild-west,  fortunes will be made and lost everyday.   And BTC is moving again,  that means people are holding BTC and not selling for Altcoins.   It was only when a altcoin I am chasing dropped to crazy lows I did not expect did I move a sliver of BTC over and sell it for altcoins.    

Its really just math,  I think "more" money is moving into and around Altcoin than ever and its only increasing.  BTC paved the way,  LTC was the shadow ride along.  And now that they are both established they will provide the anchor and lubrication for a whole new economy of alt's.  

I think we are going to see some crazy stuff come out.

USD in and out would dramatically increase our tools,    It is crazy tough to get BTC right now unless you take two weeks, or literally  meeting someone on the street.  Unless you trust ebay... or some other online method.   

50K EAC is a lot,  I would not feel bad one bit!  If EAC establishes itself strongly as a top 10 crypto which I believe it will 50K EAC will make you very happy and proud of your time investment.

Im still buying EAC,  PM me with offers.   

I like the Dynamism, but yeah,  a young coin without only 2-3Ghs a few dozen pools we are weak against it for now,  However tonight I noticed a almost immediate hash-return after the DDOS lifted, I estimate 50% of the lost Hashrate returned in less than 20 minutes!   People are paying more attention tonight than last night ha!   And if we moved fast the attackers would have much smaller gain regardless so it will hopefully discourage the attacks. 

Yeah,  you are totally right,  Nightly for us anyway because I assume,  the attackers are counting on the fewest number of us to be online to manage our clients.  Infact the benefits of the DDOS may run all the way too lunchtime tomorrow!  Without hundreds of M/hash slow or unable to recover without intervention several hours after the attacks cease.

Whomever is doing it I think are getting away with a couple hundred thousand coins beyond each attack session.    There is no way they are going through this hassle to dump for 900 satoshis...   I suspect less scrupulous types are going long on EAC as well

That is pretty much it,  I'm starting to think sailing these seas is something we've groomed for our whole life, but did not discover until we first smelled that sweet scent of bitcoin.   You either dismissed it as stupid rubbish immediately.   OR you starting changing your life over it.       Now I think no matter how it goes, we are at the cusp of a new era of value-store and transmission and self-constructed markets that will help us break free into 'the next everything'.

Which IRC server?  Freenode?

Yeah,  I fear with 3Mhs I am better off not trying to solo, regardless of how bad the DDOS is.

Someone is making a move on EAC,  not sure who, or how but I am starting to think this is where much of the Alt-crypto action is.   We've got massive DDOS across multiple pools pulling 1-2Gh/s (scrypt!) offline for extended periods and we have 20-40% 'hourly' price swings on the few exchanges EAC is listed on.

This feels like the good old BTC days again

Hey,   Your back up!

I'm submitting shares again!

Thanks Mikellev,

I just scanned over 20 EAC pools,  at least 15-16 didn't even give me a response,  the few that did not give me confidence!   Someone is ON this coin right now.   I bet someone is dumping gobs of hashrate on it, while DDOS everyone else down.   Niiice.

Any recommendations?

I noticed whats up?  Im out a few thousand EAC at this point after discovering it late!
