There is some connection between these three "people". No point denying it lolcust/artforz/SAC/bitcoinexpress

MY mind is made up !

We're all phantom constructs made by an AI to facilitate communication with fleshbags, of course !

I'm not selling any of my 1.25 million TBX till the buy orders can support a huge sell off...

Wait, did you forget that you are me and I am you?

You have 7.7 mils, remember ?

 Roll Eyes

The best answer is "not 7 million". Sure, mine some for bounties, but that is excessive. That's just my opinion. The price doesn't make a difference when you have an insane amount of TBX saved up and can manipulate the price in a few seconds.

For the love of robot gods, BTC is chock-full of people with stashes that, if sold off, can drop the price to "shit-pies" before you can spell "shit"

And USD can be printed by US at a whim.

Call me when BTC and USD (also gold which is subject to some srs hoarding behavior) implode, mkay?

Because it's centralized. And that is a point of failure.

Mt Gox & deepbit are so much bigger than their competitors that they are SPOFs too.

Did you already sell all your bitcoins ? You better hurry.

Also, I am eagerly waiting on your suggestions for a decentralized cryptocurrency anonymizer architecture, preferably with at least pseudocode snippets.
225  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fairbrix re-re-launch with mining pool on: October 07, 2011, 07:20:15 PM
Fairbrix has already relaunched.

Mining pool is a question of finding a pool-op who is interested ( There was a thread about that recently), or making your own (all the soft is on github).

The "how much should one pre-mine" discussion is pretty silly and is growing stale.

Every conceivable argument was already deployed.

Even the Invisible Hand of Market has already commented - TBX price has just risen to 0.01+ BTC

People who sold off at tripple-zeros "coz teh lolcuzd premined" are likely just a little bit sorry by now...

P.S.:
Why don't you want a transaction anonymizer with a buffers several millions strong ?

Tenebrix betting: How many trolls will come to say "TBX is a ponzi scheme" if I post a "Tenebrix ponzi" bounty.

I will post such a bounty nonetheless - I think 1000 TBX should be good enuff for that.
227  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / More Solidcoin Bashing/Defense (split from Be Safe thread) on: October 07, 2011, 05:45:54 PM
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Solidcoin 2.0 will be only minable by built-in miner (not a biggie since it is a CPU-chain, but still kinda sorta interesting property in terms of isolating it)

Initially that would be true, but I don't see how other miners can't be built that can successfully mine it separate from the client using similar algorithms and the common api's

Well, that's too early to tell, since all details are being shrouded in (IMHO pointless) mystery, but I know of no less than one way that makes "third party mining software" very very toilsome to implement

Errr, I'd trust Coinhunter exactly as much as I trust Lukashenko.

Whether that is a compliment is   up to you to decide.

P.S.:

If he wanted a central-bank type crypto-thingywingy, he could have done it using several readily available frameworks instead of raping BTC code Sad

Well, more than 90% is your premined stash. Not that I have a problem with it.

That put the rest of us with TBX in the same league with SC Wink

Excellent idea OP, BTW.

Thanks.

Right, I forgot to account for the pre-mined coins, my other objection to Tenebrix.
For Tenebrix to succeed those pre-mined coins have to be distributed/sold/offered as bounties ASAP.

They are being offered as bounty (I linked one in my response), and it seems that you have no love for the transaction mixer project, the latter, being, of course, a position I have to politely disagree with.

I believe that it is time for a cryptocurrency with even stronger ability to conceal its users while confusing and befuddling those who try to track them.


It will "crash" the Tenebrix economy, but hoarding such a huge stash will prevent it from kick-starting in the first place.

1)
Market-crashy stashes of BTC do not seem to cause any trouble, and in fact, neither do immense bullion hoards hurt gold.

2)
Speculators at btc-e seem not to agree with you, so the invisible hand has pretty much spoken (in its traditional buy/sell gestures), and it said "meh, whatever, let's trade this shiny crypto-not-really-money-but-kinda-like-that thing".

Holy robot balls, a whole percent ?

I wonder how lucrative the Tenebrix  poker room (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=47168.0) shall be Wink

It appears so. You're the creator of Tenebrix, right?
I honestly don't understand why people find it so appealing. I've read the FAQ, and I don't agree that being CPU-friendly is an important quality in a mature crypto-currency. In The Future, assuming WhateverCoin is wide spread, there will be serious money to be made securing its network, and so most of the mining will be done by professionals anyway. What do I care if those professionals use CPUs, GPUs, ASYCs, or Quantum Computers?

CPUs are more widespread, so both Huge Business Clusters with dedicated conditioning and guards Smiley and "swarms" of "opportunistic joe sixpack computers" millions of units strong united by a pool will all have their (potential) place in this hypothetical setting, while dominance of a more special, less commonplace type of component ensures that only those with the components in question take a stab.

CPUs (I include stuff like Cells which, BTW, should be pretty decent at current TBX PoW, so if you have a PS3, hack away Smiley ) are perhaps the most common computer component manufactured, so economies of scale and width of their adoption are unlike any other component type.

But let us discuss this in the Main TBX thread, and not clutter up this marvelous thread and its pie

234  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [ANNOUNCE][BOUNTY] First Tenebrix Service bounty - a Tenebrix Poker Room on: October 07, 2011, 04:28:12 PM
Hello!

Time to start making some services for Tenebrix, right ?

I guess it's time for a currency with an (upcoming  Grin) unique transaction mixer of immense strength to meet the wonderful, shiny world of gambling, thus, the first service I'd very like to see is a Tenebrix-driven poker room service.

After some contemplation, watching the buy and sell orders at btc-e, some more contemplation, whispering and watching at gloomy sky, I've decided to set this bounty at 3000 TBX.

As usual, the code of the service should be open and free.

Show it some love, gentledevelopers!
235  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tenebrix Landing-page on: October 07, 2011, 04:16:44 PM
I lol'd at the image showing source code
is that supposed to impress me?

IIRC that be ArtForz code, so show some respect!
236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tenebrix, a CPU-friendly, GPU-hostile cryptocurrency on: October 07, 2011, 04:15:51 PM
you realize if I hire competent developers I'd have to pay them a decent amount of coin (like a real hourly so it's worth their time), so we might run out of development fund pretty quickly since TBX is not worth much

You realize that should we pull off the laundry, TBX will be worth much, much more, and might even become the "second official SR currency" ?

Also, 1.5 mils is quite a lot of them TBX-es
237  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tenebrix, a CPU-friendly, GPU-hostile cryptocurrency on: October 07, 2011, 03:33:05 PM
How about making the official miner instead of paying directly the owner pay to the laundrytumbler to increase the plausible denialbility(sp?) for people receiving payments from the service?

Technicalities aside (I am in no position to comment on programming side), it raises the same issue as making every miner the "laundry guard" - directly involving people in operation of something they might rather not be directly involved with, depending on jurisdiction and position, without ever asking them.

One might construct a miner with somewhat similar-ish behavior for those who are willing to volunteer for participating in such activity out of "stick it to da man" motives, tho...

However, such activity if taken to the extreme might actually be unfavorable... hm... have to think about it.

lolcust, your reasons for the laundry service are profit-minded

u h8 market ?

laundry should be a free service and done automatically

[Liberty_Prime_voice=1]
BAH, COMMUNISM!
[Liberty_Prime_voice=0]

On a more serious note, if laundering could operate without separate laundry buffers and a bajilion of coins in them, it would be totally awesome! Too bad nobody has proposed an approach that would not involve things like "perfect trust between parties" (lol)

no miner or script should be able to disturb the laundry fund

Errr, how does this even work, the laundry never receives anything and never pays anything ? Dat's ... not very useful.

you shouldn't have the power to sell say 100,000 of the laundry fund a year down the line

I won't have this power, since the resulting buffer assymetry would inevitably cause a stink, a market panic, Laundry Customer loss and TBX value lost, all of which go against the interests of someone who runs the laundry in a "non-communist" model Wink
alternatively, make me in charge of the fund for development and I'll just spend 5 million coins on improving the chain and fuck your laundry

Dev fund is about 1.5 so you won't spend five, other than that send your CV to lolcust_notrealemail@lol.com

So Mr. "Professional Developer" has a hobby of stalking perceived "enemies" on the internet and boasting about it... *facepalm*

You facepalm a lot eh? Spending 30 seconds writing an internet post doesn't waste that much of my life, especially when it exposes hackers like yourself and btx. I'm not doing any investigating into anyone, SC users and others do and they discuss it because they don't like people like yourself and btx. The fact you're into furries was just the beginning, wonder what else they will expose about you. Cheesy

Better to be into furries than to be into designing lame "police node + civ nodes" cryptocurrency architectures that combine the lamest aspects of cryptocurrencies and of traditional money transfer systems.

Not that I mean to imply that you have indeed designed such an abominable frankensteinean monster Wink, that is, so far, unknown.
