man könnte auch fragen wie schlimm es wirklich ist, das sie das zugeben müssen  @klaus btw aus FFM? den bullen kenn ich doch |

what about the occasional captcha type thing? that would stop bot nets
you mean a mining-algo which uses captchas? sounds like a fun experiment - but please: not for monero EDIT: maybe huntercoin is for you.. |

nobody who can or cannot confirm this?  unsure if you are serious or if you just want your ref used... |

Lately the XMR price seems to be in decline anyway, so they sell what they can. Botnet owners still need to maintain their network, which takes time and effort.
miners must maintain their network too and they have additional electricity costs to pay. would be interesting to see a botnet owner speak up what he pays effective per xmr  but anyhow: i dont think botnets are bad... people need to learn to secure their computers. and people tend to learn better the hard way |

Botnet operators don't need to pay for electricity
could you explain a little more?! A large portion of the Monero global hash rate is made up of botnets. A botnet is "a network of private computers infected with malicious software and controlled as a group without the owners' knowledge,". In this case the botnet operators are using the computers to mine Monero, since Monero is quite profitable to mine with CPUs. Obviously the botnet operators don't need to pay for the electricity, so they will be making a profit no matter what. this is terrible, by this logic, they can bring the price down to 1 Satoshi is there a way for developers to prevent this - BotnetsNot really, it doesn't effect the amount of Monero being mined per day. I suppose most of the botnet operators would sell their Monero as soon as they receive it though, which could cause problems. Really it shouldn't be a problem if their are enough people buying. However due to the very high emission rate (the amount of coins mined per day set by the network), there selling pressure is starting to out weight the buying pressure causing the price to decrease a bit. why do you think botnet owners would sell immediatly? i think the opposit is true: a normal miner has to cover costs: he has to sell. a botnet owner get them nearly for free (just a little risk and maybe some cost to buy the botnet in the first lace) |

If any cryptocurrency wants to be around in three years then it needs to offer something people want and it needs to offer it now. If it doesn't it won't be around in three years, monero included.
Telling people it might take three years is like shooting yourself in the foot. People aren't going to do that. They are already losing patience as proven by the recent selling. People want results now. That's just a fact of life.
Monero is currently almost exclusively owned by people with a horizon of 3 years or more, as was Bitcoin 3 years ago. Last time the owners were richly rewarded, let's see this time. It is? Then why all the selling and people complaining about the price? If you use the history of bitcoin to justify holding any new cryptocurrency you'll end up holding worthless coins in three years. What worked for bitcoin or the history of bitcoin will never be repeated. But good luck. i don't complain about the price imho the way "fast new feature fast to market next exchange..." is the reason why most altcoins fail. it just takes a while to get adopted. there is nothing anybody can do about it. if anybody tries to force it faster it just fails harder |

The guy has been banned for a week.
why? no one can stop him to offer this "service" anywhere else... at least here mods can look through his pms |

I accused him of wanting to scam and he demanded a "public apology". So, BiPolarBob, my apologies.
I still feel hatred. but they are fine-tuning my lithium treatments so that might change. try venlafaxin (trevilor).... lithium is just bad and crazy stuff (only took it for two weeks - NEVER again) |

sounds like NXT distribution get a little better but i feel sorry for your loss... lets see how they compensate |

now just spend some time studying, reading about coins and their development. We are always avalable to answer intelligent questions
links please? its not like darkcoin papers are all over the internet... I said intelligent questions you lazy piece of shit and another reason to never buy darkcoin again asking for a link to a paper which describes a behavior you obviously know about but dont want to share? this is a stupid question? you guys are really funny! but ok you won.. i'll leave you alone |

I uploaded this fix to the SVN. It watches for spent coins and updates your wallet on load and also continuously as blocks come in. I also put a better error message, but it should never hit it because it always finds spent coins ahead of time, unless you spent the same money at the same time on two computers at once.
If you want to try it, PM or e-mail me your e-mail address where I can send it as an attachment and also what OS (win, linux 32-bit, linux 64-bit).
Yeah.....all devs just release things without making minor tweaks. bad example a better one would be the fuckup after releasing a new version which used another version of berkeleydb... any software has bugs.. this is normal BUT: a forked software with some minor changes which fails for anybody who uses the new feature (it failed for anyone who uses darksend and has set more than 0 rounds.. correct?) is a whole different story.. it just looks like a) never tested or b) made on purpose to gather more fees for his mn-buddies i tend to b... edit: short reply window was still filled with text. removed it after my post |

Heh, the bitcointalk retardfactory production line churning them out again today!  thanks you just proofed my point about the bad commuity (in fact i am surprised it took that long!) Just stick with your non anonymous, bloating monero and spare us your "advice" bye! you don't nothing about my preferences... lets see how bloated darkcoin will get with more transactions (as i understand it after every transfer funds have to get anomized again; please correct me if i am wrong. i read the hole ann thread and many links from here - just dont want to signup at darkcointalk) anonymity comes with a price. i dont want to compare different coins here as this is the darkcoin ann thread. but i preserve the right to say what i think. |

False. the core tech is a dangerously insecure bastardization of the bitcoin protocol. end of story
How do you figure that? Please explain. dangerously: its closed source insecure: closed source: not verifiable bastardization: everything is just copied (except for the pseudo decentralized masternodes) i would add: and lacks a competent dev and a nice and open community It will be open source after RC5. They announced that a long long time ago. Darkcoin is still being developed as I'm sure you know. Im sure most people would disagree about Evans competence and ability to write code. He's doing something Nobody else has done. rc5 is not now... i will change my mind if it gets open source. evan: no one has ever written a peer finding protocol which then executes a protocol copied from somebody else... i have my doubts btw.. a good programmer is way more that developing a specific feature (even if its a core feature). i had a very good laugh with this launch (eg round count ignored with darksend - possibilies are 1) nobody every tested it 2) it wasnt a mistake to do a favor to his mn-buddies 3) he was in a hurry and released to early - ANY programmer should test his stuff.. so i can say he is not a good one) |

Ethereum is out now, is it something that allowed to be discussed here?
I wanted to "invest", the idea is good... but now, after I learned more...
I just looked at their website they already "raised" about 3000 bitcoins... The odd thing is from what I learned is that there is no cap on number of coins and the future coins coming to the market just a percentage of "presale", which makes me think of a very strange strategy...
as many people invest the less value of each coin will have...
Their prelaunch is actually will dictate next years number of coins, so if there will be 1.000.000 coins mined next year or 300.000.000 coins is simply dictated by their prelaunch... And such a difference in number of next year(s) mined coins will have an impact on coins value for sure... Apparently, more people invest in ethereum the lower value of each coin will have... What the hell??
its an ipo with an unlimited money supply. it has some interesting aspects: but i'll just wait for forks |

what the hell is an ico coin?
*confused*
ICO = IPO coin, meaning buyng coins without mining it before it is on a exchange (or on a exchange with a fix price). ah thanks, guess i can forget them immediatly |
