11681  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] LiteDoge - such Community coin | no premine | very fast | much profit on: November 23, 2015, 01:47:39 AM
What happened to LiteDoge exchanges? I tried going to the Bittrex exchange site, but it looks like they have removed the LDOGE to BTC market. All I get is a message stating that the Page could not be found. Any hints? Also, I've checked Coinmarketcap, but on the markets list there is 0% volume trading on all of them. Is this coin dead already?  Huh
11682  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] (XWC) | WhiteCoin | NEWS: Foundation, investors, WhiteOS ☯ whitecoin.info on: November 23, 2015, 01:38:01 AM
This was really a great crypto. I remember when I used to be a Whitecoinaire but after seeing lack of development, I sold all my XWC and exchanged them back to BTC. Still, if there would be any innovation at all, I would come back. I have plenty of ideas for the new Whitecoin 2.0 and those would be the following features:

1. Decrease available supply (to increase price as it will become more rare)

2. Make a new GUI wallet with a better interface.

3. Make a mobile Whitecoin app for Android and iOS.

4. Ability to stake Whitecoins in the cloud (see www.xpy.io for an example)

5. Physical Whitecoin currency. (could be in Gold, silver or copper)

6. Add XWC to major crypto exchanges such as Poloniex and Cryptsy.

7. Create a decentralized marketplace for XWC.

8. And something else I might have missed.  Cheesy

GPU which are more effective than CPUs for this task).  Smiley

For some PoWs, GPUs offer no advantage.
Some PoWs even leave your CPU running cool...

what pow?

Cuckoo Cycle

https://github.com/tromp/cuckoo

is this something like scrypt-n but for sha256 to counteract asic? i seen somethign about memory there

sha256 is the simplest choice of compute-bound hash function in the Hashcash Proof of Work.
scrypt-n is an attempt to make the hash function require lots of memory but fails in three ways:
1) scrypt allows trading off memory for time
2) the larger n, the slower the hash computation, quickly making it unsuitable for fast verification
3) scrypt is still rather computation heavy

In Cuckoo Cycle computation is minimized and you spend most time waiting for memory.
You can scale memory use to the GB range while remaining instantly verifiable.
Trading off memory for time is not so feasible, incurring an extra order-of-magnitude slowdown.


All these ideas and features of the new Cuckoo Cycle algorithm, makes me think that we will be soon seeing CuckooCoin around. It will be better than most SHA-256 and Scrypt coins out there. This will make more memory efficient.  Grin

well i suppose a ponzi scheme is good if the ponzi is just begginning and you are close to the top of the pyramid,since you might get paid.
how do i get into these signature campains?
You need higher rank Full Member for good amount from Signature but you still can join some campaigns which are supporting newbies and Jr Members income is not good but for start its ok

Unless newbies and Jr members would like to try farming, then they would earn as much as a Full member (I think). All there is needed is to have multiple accounts with multiple signature campaigns and you are all set. Just be careful make quality posts and don't spam to avoid being banned from campaign.  Wink
11685  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin is officially dead on: November 23, 2015, 01:13:42 AM
Even doge has more uses than litecoin. Litecoin is a shit coin, worth nothing. Price will collapse before the year's end.
 Mark my words.

I personally dont think the price will go lower than 8 mBTC, but that is still just a few % points. And then it can go up again.

Doge is stable no doubt, but i dont see DOGE ever going up big.


I`d still choose LTC over DOGE anytime.

DOGE's current problem is that there are too many of them (available supply is huge) thus making it a very inflationary currency. The less the supply the more the price would increase. Also, I think that even NXT and Ethereum are better than both Litecoin and Dogecoin. Just my opinion.  Roll Eyes

It all depends on your choosing, whenever you like the flexibility of having control of your own money, or to have the ability to earn interest from your savings account, I would like to state that each has their advantages and disadvantages. So until Bitcoin becomes a mainstream currency, it is best to use both a bank account and a Bitcoin wallet. Just my opinion.  Smiley
there are advantages and disadvantages of both, the best is use both
I like the bank because there is interest  Grin

You can always earn interest on your Bitcoin savings by various ways like Magnr, or Poloniex lending (which earns you interest). Isn't that similar to a bank as well, in earning interest? Just expressing my thoughts by the way. It is good to have both (BTC and Bank) in the meantime.  Smiley

Any hint on when we would be seeing the new CasinoCoin wallet release? Sorry for asking, I'm just excited to start using the new one as it has been a long time since the last version was released. By the way, where could I find a CasinoCoin paper wallet generator? Thanks in advance.  Smiley

Soon. It won't be long. I'd like to get it out before the end of November.
Yes we are doing our best to release it by the end of november. However there is far more coding involved than we anticipated. As there is no change on the blockchain and its version you could checkout the GUI-2.0 branch and build a wallet version by your self, .... offcourse on your own risk as we have not tested all functions  yet, last commit should already work and has about 90% of the work done. There are some bugs on exiting the wallet so i would not run it with your current wallet and its coins Wink yet but with a copy of your datadir.

Now that is good to hear. It seems that I would be getting my hands on the new wallet after all before Christmas. This is so cool. And also, the addition of new casinos/gambling sites that would accept CSC as payment would be a great move towards increase in price and demand.  Grin

when new games will be added for this, do you plan to add moba game like dota2 for example? it would increase greatly the exposure of hyper i believe


Dota 2 would be a great pick, but having League of Legends would be far better since this game has a better exposure.

League of Legends would be an excellent idea, but what about mainstream console games like the ones for Xbox One, PS4 or even the Wii U? It would certainly be great to earn Hyper while you play those games, and at the same time it will be extra fun!  Cheesy
11689  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - Fair Launch, No ICO, Community DAO, based on Ethereum on: November 22, 2015, 11:30:57 PM
oh wow.. 4K sat..  30btc market cap..   Roll Eyes

Who knows what might happen in the future? Right now is it extremely cheap, but if this crypto gets more attention to it, (and more market demand) I'm pretty sure it would succeed. That is why even if things seem to look bad, there is still hope that maybe someday the price would increase and it would have been worth it to hold Expanse for some time.  Roll Eyes
11690  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: November 22, 2015, 11:27:27 PM
Will Ethereum be able to implement Proof of Stake on Ethers? I think it would be a great idea to stake Ethers (like a bank account which earns you interest) as this would make it more energy efficient than mining them with a GPU. Still there is a lot to be developed on, and maybe in the next 2 to 3 years we would be able to see Ethereum's true potential. This is an excting journey for Ethereum.  Cheesy

I've been lending mine on Polo for interest Cool

Could you advise me on how to do such thing? This looks pretty interesting, but I do not know how to do that on the Poloniex exchange. Sorry for asking, I'm still not familiar with how Poloniex works. I use Cryptsy most of the time.  Smiley
11691  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BitShares 2.0 on: November 22, 2015, 11:19:19 PM

Now that is a very useful guide for newcomers to the Bitshares platform (like me). Thanks a lot mate! This is very useful for me to get a better understanding of Bitshares features. Looking forward for more exciting things to come by!  Cheesy

This crypto currency is awesome. I'm starting to download the wallet and buying some MUE at an exchange. By the way, is not there a list of peers I could find to add into my wallet? All I get is just 4 connections to the MonetaryUnit network. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks  Wink

Have a look at the node list here...
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/mue/#!network

addnode='any from the latest wallet version' should push you along

Great! Thanks for sharing this useful source of nodes for MUE. I'll try this at home and will also get into mining as soon as I get a nice GPU.  Cheesy


@bizzyb  Can I mine MonetaryUnit with my CPU, instead of a GPU? (sorry I don't know much about quark's algorithm) If it is possible, how can I estimate mining hashrate of an Intel Core i5-3210M CPU @2.50GHz? Thanks.  Wink
11693  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Are HDD minable alt coins profitable at all? on: November 22, 2015, 10:52:58 PM
the other two are dead is seems, burst is the only one, it was profitable at launch now not anymore, they should do a coin like this based on the speed of the hd disk instead of the capacity
we could reduce the consumption even farther and less space and ram for the computer, i'm waiting for it to be released

Exactly. I was thinking of such a coin, perhaps an improvement on Burst's mining algorithm (like Burst 2.0)? Anyways, I was looking into Storj and based on their earnings calculator, it looks very profitable. Even still, Sia looks interesting as well.  Roll Eyes  You can check it out here: https://sia.tech/
11694  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Virtacoin Core CPU Usage on: November 22, 2015, 10:46:45 PM
Have anyone experienced high CPU usage when leaving the Virtacoin Core wallet open for a little while? I've noticed that it takes up 99% of my CPU usage when I look at the Task Manager.  Huh

Any idea on what this might be or how it could be solved. I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.  Wink

gunna ask the few base questions everyone will have when reading this post..

are you currently syncing the blockchain?
are you mining when you see this?

and probably the most important question

what cpu do you have...?

The wallet is fully synced and there is no mining in process on my laptop. Virtacoin Core wallet is just idle and minimized into system tray, but it takes up 100% CPU load without doing absolutely nothing. I'm running Windows 10 by the way. The CPU is Intel Core i5-3210M Quad Core @ 2.50GHz  Grin

Today i only 0.001 something because i withdrawn it to buy groceries.
Then im always searching for another way to earn bitcoin fast.. but until now there is no easy way to earn bitcoin fast in easy way...

You could always try to make your own gambling site or a faucet. That may be a fast way to earn Bitcoin in no time. Also, with combined earnings from signature campaign, you can reach 1 BTC easily  Roll Eyes

11697  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Are HDD minable alt coins profitable at all? on: November 22, 2015, 12:58:24 AM
Had anyone tried mining HDD Proof of Capacity coins such as Burst, Sia, or StorjcoinX? Can anyone confirm if mining one of these is profitable at all? Because I have checked Burst's mining profitability with the provided mining calculator, but so far it isn't profitable to mine it at all. You will end up spending more on a hard drive than you would on getting a ROI. Any hints on this?  Huh
11698  Other / Off-topic / Re: what you like best in Bitcoin ? on: November 22, 2015, 12:51:54 AM
Being anonymous while paying for online services. Privacy on internet is being big deal these days, i also don't like to share my personal details only to pay for service.

Don't you mean pseudonymous? As far as I can tell, Bitcoin is not totally anonymous. That is why there is the need for Bitcoin mixers and privacy oriented cryptos such as Monero. But still, I get what you mean. With Bitcoin, there is really no need for identity verification at all to use it (if that's the anonymity that you mean)  Grin

You can always invest in Gold, which you can do so online by simply visiting BitGold. Bitcoins can be exchanged for Gold as well, so this makes it very convenient to grow your capital as Gold is a very reliable investment.  Grin

It looks like your promoting a most likely scam site. There are many people compiling their withdrawal are being held then why you want buy gold from them instead buy directly from the market.

I don't think it will be scam sooner cuz I saw some reputable members of this forum using bitgold and they even promote. But I am seeing scam accusations against on bitgold as well. Quite confused who am I going to believe Grin I also used to register there but didn't continue cuz I hate the fact that a site asking for personal details like IDs for verification.

Has it been confirmed that BitGold is a scam? Has anyone tried this service before? I've been eager to register an account there but I'm first making a research before making my move. Looking for a reliable source of reviews regarding this service.  Smiley
