looks like a pump happening

Maybe not a pump...just people finally catching wind of the news!

BTW @SpringfieldM1a check you're PM Smiley

Roger that, answered Smiley

Hey guys,

Would anyone mind creating a new topic to post the PR (full-text) in the main altcoin subthread. I think we could also create a topic for the Bitcoin general discussion thread, since the PR is also directly related to BTC.

This will be sure to create a lot of buzz around Bitcointalk Forums.

I would do it, but I feel it would come off as self-promotion and maybe not taken as seriously.

Thanks  
Brilliant!
Someone like Springfield? He is avid anon coin supporter and not just BTCD
Bitcoin gave up on being anon, now it can be and get new life, especially with all the NY state nonsense

James

I would gladly post the announcement, I feel honored that you suggested me James Smiley
Azeh, please feel free to contact me on how you want to make this work.

Can someone tell me what the meaning of this on my BTCD wallet is.

Weight?
I understand this is going up, but what is it

Weight = coin age * balance

So your weight increases with both the time you stake coins in your wallet and the amount of coins you keep in your wallet.

Your weight influences the amount of coins you are rewarded for staking. The higher the weight, the more coins you recieve from staking.

Basically it's like interest on your savings account in a normal bank. The higher your savings account and the longer you keep it at the bank, the more interest you recieve.

Dev,

 I cant understand much of what your saying.
Is it possible you can sometimes  intersect in plain english what some of the
techie stuff means when you post- which relates to BTCD.
I understand your busy though.




There is a Darkpaper out, which explains the workings and ambition of Bitcoindark.It aims to be understood by both tech oriented people, and the general enthusiast (like me) It can be found here:

http://www.flipgorilla.com/p/23023990364728535/show#/23023990364728535/0

Should you have any further questions feel free to ask them here. James is very busy at the moment, but he will gladly answer questions when he has the time.

can someone explain why BTC is dropping everyday?

Markets are an eternal struggle between bears and bulls. For the past week or so the bears are ruling.

Hi everyone,

Today has been very productive. I was able to compile libjl777 under Windows and link it into BitcoinDark-qt. This means that the teleport functions are now able to be called and tested. I also built a custom rpc command which will be able to call these functions, such as teleport. In case you missed it the other day, I was able to successfully expand multisig support to 6-of-6 transactions, meaning that teleport is going to really be quite anonymous. Big things are coming for BTCD, and it really keeps the dev team motivated to see such positive posts in this thread  Grin

Ok I need to go to sleep, it's almost 4 am here.

Thanks,
Matthew

P.S. Remember to hodl

You guys seriously rock. I like it how you work together in perfect synchronization. Btcd will be like an umbrella under which all alts can take shelter. I see the future and it is bright. Thank you for your continued dedication to this project, as both an investor and someone who wishes to be free from banks, I feel I am in good hands.

When XC gets its official public launch, brace yourselves. The market is ready for a fully anonymous multifunctional IM client. See this news and wechat is centralized and easily snooped on.

+1

If XC decides to charge some sort of fee to use their private communication platform (chat, voice, & video)... I can't even begin to imagine how high the price will soar.
This is just personal opinion and i have expressed it only to be ridiculed (not here) quite a few times, but i think the price XC will rise to in the next 12-36 months will make BTC's peak look like chicken feed, XC can be huge! and all the right steps are being taken to make this a reality and not just speculation, brace your selves, there is going to be some very rich people from this thread in the next few years....i know a lot of people think i'm delusional..but..i think you will all be surprised..how big XC is going too get.

You are right. I share the same sentiment. I've been proclaiming the fact that XC is a company, a platform since the very beginning. We hold xc 'coins' but I see them as stock, or shares of that company. I hold and have held since May this year. I'm not thinking about selling any time soon. It's only a matter of time before either venture capital starts feeding on xc or a large company wants to buy the technology. It wont happen overnight, but I am patient and I will keep my faith whatever the market conditions are, we will get there.

Excellent work. Should we do a fundraiser for a prweb press release? The cost is $500.

I think someone is LaTex-ing it, and putting images in. Probably worth waiting for that?
Agreed, good point.

BTC for network effect. BTCD for privacy. NXT for 2.0. Is there anything missing from a crypto ecosystem/portfolio?

Excellent post, the only asset i'd like to add to the list is XC. It's also more of a platform (like BTCD) than 'just a coin', their focus is on mobile applications. I hold BTCD, XC, NXT and of course BTC itself Smiley

literally more than a hundred test versions later, and dozens of bug fixes, plus needing to recode a whole new method to keep track of unspent outputs by realtime monitoring the blockchain, and a bunch of other minor fixes, I am not quite there Sad

I have it randomly waiting to clone and I need to set that to 0 delay for testing, had a couple tests where it almost worked, but now have a dozen unusable telepods. transporter problems sure make a mess!

Anyway, I have new telepod file format that should have all the fields needed, but now waiting for a test telepod to age. Getting a bit late though. Maybe it will go easier when I am not so tired.

James

Hang in there man, thanks for your hard work. You will get there, this is just a small setback in the long run. I think it's amazing that you keep us informed, both about progress and about small setbacks.

How high do you guys think this coin is gonna go?  Pretty impressive run so far.

Cheers!

ppl are saying top 10 long term, so that's like 400% of the value right now.

Yep, top 10 soon. Look at the charts, a nice double top has formed. Usually this will be either the start of a breakout or a breakdown. With all the developments in the works (Teleport testing) we should see a breakout soon. My prediction is at least 700k short term. If James' testing of the Teleport function is succesful, panic buying will ensue. He has been testing it for a couple of hours (see previous posts by him) It's only a matter of time that he will post his results in this thread. Judging by his skills my bet is that he nailed it and the rabbit has succesfully gone through.

After a slew of silly JSON syntax errors, it appears that I am about to head into the actual teleport sequence
good luck little rabbit

I hope the brave little bunny makes it out the other end Smiley

The BTCD dev team is hiring for the GUI wallet Smiley

I am no coder, but if anyone reading is interested:

https://coinality.com/jobs/create-modified-version-of-the-btcd-bitcoindark-qt-wallet-elance-job/

Job Description

We need a modified version of the BTCD (Bitcoindark) qt-wallet. My friend James is working on a technology called “Teleport” that allows anonymous transactions that leave no trace in the blockchain.

The things that the GUI needs to do is:
1. Establish connection with a privacyServer (just needs IP, and NXT acct password)
2. Manage Telepods (You need to have a changepod and some unitpods, so requesting a changepod from faucet, creating unitpods)
3. Transporter function to teleport to specific destination
4. Publish public addresses so other people can do number 3 themselves. (I want to support having BTCD, NXT and BTC public addresses)
5. Display NXT address that is linked to a BTCD address (I will make it so that BTCD address’es privatekey is NXT password, so the two addresses are linked)

EDIT: I just found this on Elance.com

Please sign up!
We needs testers for teleport etc. so I made a sign up form for a testers group. When you sign up, jl777, PondSea or I will contact you when development goes into testing stage. When you sign up now you can always sign out any time, no obligation to participate in the testing.

BTCD & Teleport Testers Group Sign Up Group
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/16xIwHeQ0aPtybNJbB-F_G1v2M1MocBt0_yfjzk5nsKw/viewform

3 people already signed up, thank you!

Do you have to be a 1337 h4x0r type of guy or can any run of the mill internet user sign up? I am somewhere in between, I can't code, but I know how to use my computer for more than menial tasks.

Voted.
I'm getting a couple of cryptographer friends to look over the darkpaper. Hopefully we'll get some good feedback. Like 'ok, my job just got a lot harder.'

That would be very cool  Smiley

A cool name for the teleport disruptor : Ultima Ratio (regum)

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ultima+ratio+regum

-Last method
-The final argument
-The last resort (as force)    

The last resort. Short form for the metaphor "The Last Resort of Kings and Common Men" referring to the act of declaring war; used in the names the French sniper rifle PGM Ultima Ratio and the fictional Reason weapon system. Louis XIV of France had Ultima Ratio Regum ("last argument of kings") cast on the cannons of his armies; motto of the 1st Battalion 11th Marines; motto of the Artilleriregementet.

Yes James, implement the 'anti cloning' feature. It will safeguard the investment of people. Also, in due time you could decide to help other coins 'for free' or open source Teleport completely, but for now in these early development stages the copyright to this new technology will help the btcd platform to really stand above the rest.
