As usual I am missing this one out as I on the way to work now. I will not be mining tonight either but for good reason as I have an interview for a much better job tomorrow!

Oh looks like I uploaded the wrong main.cpp. It wasn't the one I was working on. lol. Anyway you could probably automate the creation of new block chains. You could write a script that takes tweets and uses them as the pszTimestamp, gets the epoc date, calculates the merkleroot and so on. For instance you could write code or a script that parses to code that makes a new block chain every time lady gaga makes a Tweet. I think the real problem is that all the new currencies are really the same hashing algorithm and its far to easy for miners to hop from one currency to another or for two currencies to even be merged. If you really want a new currency best to use a completely different and possibly even stronger hashing algorithm. According to this thread here bitcoin is encryption is already veryvery strong though. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1713.0But still I think this could be a great way to help make a network for each SHA3 finalist. http://www.nist.gov/itl/csd/sha3_010511.cfm This could be an interesting way to allow people to wage "bets" on who which hash will become SHA3. BLAKEcoin Grøstlcoin, JHcoin, Keccakcoin, Skeincoin, People can attempt to mine or buy the one they tip to win. There's are still other weaknesses in bitcoin that get tested with every new network. The greater than 50% and winner takes all problems for instance. If someone could think of an ingenious way of fixing this then they might have a candidate for bitcoin 2.0 or at least 1.5 |

Well dude, i'd love to get out of debt and get some funding for Rejuvepedia. I'm not beaten yet.
So, why don't you get a job? Get out of debt? People should learn to only buy stuff when they have to economic power for it, not just because they want to. Most people in this forum want to end the debt system, yet, they seem to depend so much on it... I bet you could use your determination for things more worthwhile than get-rich-quick scams. You seem to be a nice guy, but all this hurts you more than it helps you. take everything i said with a grain of salt. Not bashing on you, you just seem a bit... lost? I do have a job. Two actually. I work part-time in a call center and part-time self employed as a call out PC tech. I could have got out of debt very easily if bought a 67 cents and sold at $30 but that's hindset. To be a leader you need to think about the future and what opportunities are coming up not that the ones you missed. |

So what will you exchange them for? Goods? Services? How?
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh da man want's to get rich also!  After reading all his posts whining that he missed bitcoin, he missed ixcon and he missed i0con, now he wants his own fork FFS  Well dude, i'd love to get out of debt and get some funding for Rejuvepedia. I'm not beaten yet. |

BTW i0coins sauce is very spicy  |

So what will you exchange them for? Goods? Services? How?
Mainly services to start with. A small portion could go to projects that aim to service the public's needs but that would take it longer to get out the door. Then again we already have the devcoin code. I always complaining that devcoins share was too high at 90% an wanted it lowered to 10%. I was making rabid speculation before about seperating the provision of public good from the state. This seems like an awesome idea for spin off project that many libertarians and bleeding heart pinkies alike may be interested in helping with. This project could go in that direction as a devcoin fork not a i0coin fork. I was just working on something I could get out the door quicker but if we are going to take longer on it that would be the direction i'd push it. |

if I was able to get this working i'd be trying to get a Perth (Australia) based pool interested and I'd be using cgminer this time. I'd setup some forums. I'd want another offical launch giving people about 1 week notice. If anyone gets this working and posts it then for now its a testnet. I don't want an exchange for BTC nor the previous IX,0X coins. It is intended for use as a currency. It will be launched via github. The project will also be there available for development testing before launch. |

http://www.perth-exchange.org/main.cppI've been working with multicoin to get the merklehash and devcoin and groupcoin to try to get it working. Also been playing with ixcoin and i0coin. I need a few minutes help from someone that knows what they're doing obviously. I wanted the 4 byte message to be IWON the first letter of the addresses to be i or I in base58.h and a different port obviously. I was even thinking of making the starting difficulty so low that people will have no choice but to do the first thousand blocks with CPUs. The currency was to be called IWON instead of i1. BTW /bitcoind -printtoconsole is awesome I've been using a combination of "beyond compare" and meld to compare the source files. here is some output:

Yeh lol..meh I'm tired of these forks..time to go back to good'ol'bitcoin The one and only, the first eh thats up to you of course.. but I am racking it in with these volatile new currencies. Mainly on I0coin as I dont have to worry about some founder dumping all of his coins suddenly and making the price crash. All the p2p currencies have large holders or founders that could crash the price. |

Although those few with the big rigs and shortest latency did get WAY more coins than anyone else, software made a difference for getting them in the first few hours also. I've mentioned a few times that I use cgminer. I got seven 1 share blocks in the first 33 minutes (my first was around 90 seconds from the start) with a 710Mh/s rig Also my latency is just over 200ms Rig network: PowerLine to Gigabit router (amber: 50-80Mbit), then Gigabit to linux router, then 100Mbit to switch then 100Mbit to ADSL router then 800Kbit to the internet ...) So software choice clearly makes a difference too. P.S. can everyone stop feeding the 'troll' and he will hopefully go away  (I'm not referring to anyone in this post of course) Thank you. I'll stop trolling now. At least for today anyway. I'm no richer but I'm a little wiser and I have enough answers now. I'm now running CGminer. Thank you. |

1) wait until someone launches new p2p currency
2) have pool ready
3) get everyone to mine new p2p currency on your pool
3) use your less than 1 ms latency to mine the shit out of new p2p currency while your pool ensures that you control the blockchain
4) if people complain about only stales while your getting all the blocks blame it on the low difficulty
5) dump coins on exchange to get all the investors bitcoins
6) profit
This is not i0coins's fault and does not make it a scam. It's also flat out wrong. Maybe next time try using a miner that can handle > 1 longpoll/second and doesn't need half a eternity from finding a H==0 to submitting a share. I did that, got >700 of the early blocks with 6Ghps and a 180ms ping to io.btcguild. Hi Art, I used poclbm. Did you use a custom modified miner or a freely available one? Perhaps the H==0 is done by custom asics? http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/logs/2011/01/15/10crap no wonder I'm one of life's losers lmao |

I think everyone should put all their hashing power into i0coin! What a great idea!
I think this is the first coin since Bitcoin that could become a big success. It's supported by a big part of the community and has no "scam" rating. Might want to check the TWO I0Coin is a SCAM topics. 1) wait until someone launches new p2p currency 2) have pool ready 3) get everyone to mine new p2p currency on your pool 3) use your less than 1 ms latency to mine the shit out of new p2p currency while your pool ensures that you control the blockchain 4) if people complain about only stales while your getting all the blocks blame it on the low difficulty 5) dump coins on exchange to get all the investors bitcoins 6) profit |

As a side node I was going to transfer money to mtgox to buy bitcoins to buy i0coins. Very glad I didn't now. My last transfer of $800 AUD is nearly entirely down the toilet thanks this rubbish mostly lost on IXcoin but my hashing power was wasted on i0 coin.
I'm sure the guys that hold most of the i0 coins will relieve the other suckers investors of their bitcoins soon.

Xephan: Yeah I just withdrew ~140 from i0.digbtc.
I wanted to sell them before I went to bed though as I expected a crash.
I do remember there was something about a DDoS attempt in i0 guild at the time.

Yes. I was thinking of making it so that the blocks give less coins every so many rounds but the difficulty is aligned to a woman's menstrual cycle.
Sounds good but could be a bit irrational. Well what good is a p2p currency if it doesn't teach you how to treat a lady? |

yes I got about 9 coins from btc guild.. it didn't seem right at all which is why I changed to http://i0.digbtc.net/but their page seems down now for some reason Still up for me. When did you switch to i0.digbtc.net? If 9 coins were all you got from BTCG, then I would assume the rest of your 81 coins at the time you posted about having 90 coints, were all from i0digbtc? I think that maybe if you had stuck to btcg, you would had came out ahead. I had pretty much zero coin for the first few difficulties but that was pretty much expected. Once it took more than 2~3 shares per block, my coin rate went up tremendously. Due to the sheer amount of hashing power BTCG have, it would also had been able to void/orphan blocks from other pools as well simply by racing ahead with a longer blockchain. Yeah I forgot the exact time. I actually barely slept at all last night but I had a PC repair job this morning. Came back from that and spent most of the day sleeping while my miners purred in the background. http://i0.digbtc.net/ for me seems to bring up a blank page. http://www.digbtc.net/ does seem to take a long time to respond but did come up eventually. |

Which is what I believe happened. The largest proportion of blocks went to miners on the same physical network as the server. Those of us in other continents didn't even get a look in. By the time we submitted out work it was stale.
It also depends on some sheer dumb luck I think? I've got more than 200ms to the io.btcguild server and less hashrate pointed at it than you did... but based on what you had posted, I think I got a few times more i0coins than you before the stales started going down from the new difficulties  yes I got about 9 coins from btc guild.. it didn't seem right at all which is why I changed to http://i0.digbtc.net/but their page seems down now for some reason |

Well from reading the "I0coin - HOW MANY BLOCKS U GOT?" thread it does look like a couple of big players got over 90% of the blocks. Didn't it seem a little strange that blocks were going so fast yet everyone was getting stales? The excuse was that that everyone was getting stales because blocks were going so fast. So if blocks we're going so fast who was getting all the blocks and leaving everyone with the stales? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=37608.0First thing, the ones not getting stales won't be complaining. If you look at the btcguild block stats, practically the first few thousand blocks went to 1 miner (different ones but 1 miner per block). It's just a matter whose block made it to the server before the rest, a network latency race. If you're right next to the server, connectivity wise, say with a 10ms ping, you'll have a 20ms headstart over everybody else. For somebody on the other side of the Pacific with say 200ms ping, he's going to get the work piece 190ms later and even if he got lucky and found the winning share on the first hash, that's another 190ms window for the guy next to the server to grab the block. Now since the pool owner is likely going to be running miners ON the same physical network as the server, those miners probably going to win that race most of the time. Which is what I believe happened. The largest proportion of blocks went to miners on the same physical network as the server. Those of us in other continents didn't even get a look in. By the time we submitted our work it was stale. |
