it would be cool if this happened because recently Ethereum has become an incredibly popular currency in our world
202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most Favorite Altcoin. on: April 06, 2018, 02:52:16 PM
no why this but if you talk just about the coins it is obvious that in the first place now is because bitcoin is worth more than all
203  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good news about the crypto currency. on: April 06, 2018, 02:51:14 PM
finally! I'm tired every day to hear that the market is sliding and cryptocurrencies begin to die is nonsense
204  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin vs Ethereum? on: April 06, 2018, 02:49:34 PM
it is impossible to compare them only because both are at the moment the most popular cryptocurrency in the world and it will be

I love bounty, it is generally best that we could give cryptocurrency because it is the opportunity to earn from scratch
206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card on: September 07, 2017, 07:06:01 PM
@rajravind Yeah i know but i wanted to show ppl what he's selling lol. Distorta should have sold his Pay bags when he was 2-3x up last week. He will still be holding that pay bag while we ride MCO way past 0.006, It is obvious pay is trying to achieve what MCO has been putting in place since inception. MCO will be Visa approved while Pay rides a 3rd party

TenX announced getting a banking license that will effectively do what Monaco has only talked about doing. https://youtu.be/ZqX7vqvcI8A?t=14m1s
 Their long term growth is solid.


 Quick returns don't mean anything in the long run. I guess Bitcoin holders should have sold at the first dip in 2011 based on rajravinds basic analysis.   I don't know what world you two live in? 2-3 weeks in crypto is nothing when talking about a long term company that actually has a working roadmap that they have fulfilled ahead of all the competition. You morons think MCO will jump to $100-200 over night when they don't even have a working card that is the basis to what their company should be working to create lol. I work in product development and help roll out user interface testing and it takes time. Even if Monaco starts shipping tomorrow they still will need to test their network for transactions, which, haven't even started so they are way behind. TenX has 5 figure card orders they are fulfilling everyday, working product with Visa and Mastercard support. I would love to see a video of the monaco team being tranparent and updating their community. They have no presence what so ever because they don't have a working product. It has been a solid two weeks of MCO not saying anything about VISA support.


Well why would u put so much effort in being on these forums conveying info that really is not helping anyone.
The question is if one believes in Monaco or not, everyone decides that for themselves in the meantime who cares that competiton is further, that doesn't mean there isn't room for Monaco.

In this business we speculate and really with the amount of attention Monaco has had, this is still a very good bet at 10$, sometimes issues on the road solve itself with better alternatives.

So stop panicking and spreading fud, if you are not wanting to be in Monaco you have no reason to put fud on the forums, unless u want to talk the price down........

Where is any proof that you have insurance companies or any of the target markets interest?

How much interest have you actually created? Why are you launching an ico without that info displaying on the website?
The idea is great but I struggle to plunge into something with very little info.
Where can I see how many. much early investors have bought in already?

Thank you. I need a little extra push to be convinced putting any money in this ico.

Great work Dev's!

I think/ am assuming that the devs will probably find a way to get around this one. I have a feeling that Billeau is the least worried about his identity (might be wrong on this one) besides disclosing identity to bittrex still keeps you anonymous to the outside world assuming bittrex doesn't display your identity openly?

Ah well we can speculate what we want let's see what the devs say about this one. I doubt that they aren't aware of this issue.

On another note, I kinda regret the way I started on this forum, I think I was a little to skeptical without doing my own research first so apologies 4 that. Especially reading the last 15 pages on the forum shows the devs capabilities and professional attitude.
I am not just saying this as I have a little money invested. I got more coins I invested in but foresee this coin having great potential indeed.

I have 2 r9 290 and 2 7950 I am going to try mining again this week  jut have to set it up again.
I stopped mining a few years back as electricity here is quite expensive and I took a break from crypto.

Will they have to disclose all identities on bittrex or just one dev? I am assuming/ hoping they will have a solution for this.

Hello nippel,

A gui wallet is still in the making, devs are working hard on it.
You can sell coins at cryptopia but I suggest you hold on to them whilst sumo will be added to Bittrex.

I believe there is ankther way to create a wallet, but I don't know how. Just read the 40 pages and you will understand the devs are solid, I had the same questions initially.


212  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [SUMO] SUMOKOIN - 🔏 Digital Cash For High-Confidential Transactions 🔏 on: June 29, 2017, 09:11:40 AM
Hi,

Thx again for the answers, I just want to get to know this coin better and devs behind it so all I am doing is asking questions that new joiners might have as well. Plus as you may understand from some of  my questions I  clearly am still on a learning curve.

The devs answers make sense to me and sofar I am impressed with what I see and read of you guys.

Not sure why some people find it necessary to react with aggression to what I view as being normal questions? Why would I be trolling I have no incentive for that? Stop messing with my zen.

So here goes, maybe I can change some of your negative thoughts on me:

I just bought a good amount of sumo and decided that this coin on the surface looks like it is worth an investment. Albeit a risky one, but at least most of my questions were answered to a degree that I now feel better about my decision.

I am doing a study in computer science at Open Uni (1st year) and like to learn more bout crypto's in general so I would love to help you out in any way I can.... if I can ofcourse.

Could  join the slack channel? How do I require the emailaddress?


Hello,

Thank you for the reply. You don't have to buy trust, you guys have got a really nice setup here, so this is what makes me have interest in this coin.
All I am asking now is what will happen exactly with the escrowed premined coins in 2020 will they all be released in one go? How do you protect yourself from being greedy? Could it not be setup in a way that the release of premined coins get's spread out over years later? If the premine is mainly to keep the project going there is no requirement for all the coins to be released in one go?


Many questions around the premined coins, most are valid ones, so I'll break them down:

1. All I am asking now is what will happen exactly with the escrowed premined coins in 2020 will they all be released in one go?

Though it'll be quite a long time to July 2020, devs did discuss about it. We want to keep less than 15% premined coins to total supply unless the market requires more (but I doubt), so it's much likely we'll have another escrowing round after all coins released.

2. How do you protect yourself from being greedy?

Hard question with no full satisfactory answer I think. We don't feel greedy now but you guys must always keep eyes on devs' actions and punish them when smelling sth wrong, that's a way to keep us from being too greedy.

3. Could it not be setup in a way that the release of premined coins get's spread out over years later?

Now, almost all premined coins are locked in blockchain, we cannot do anything with them, only when they are released we can do sth as said at (1) above.

4. If the premine is mainly to keep the project going there is no requirement for all the coins to be released in one go?

Not really sure what you mean. Until now, premined coins are mainly used as incentives for contributions, very small sums, but it can be sth to keep project from being abandoned if it requires full-time jobs of some devs in latter years. I think it'd always be better than nothing.

Thanks for your interests. At the end, I think if you doubt about 2020 release, you can always have option to sell all coins before that, right?

I had a long talk with Sumoshi and Haruto about revealing our identities before. Both flatly refused to post anything more than their family names here. Sumoshi had some reasons:

1. He created Sumokoin because its features especially built-in anonymity in transactions and he think that will be upmost important in the long run. He chose very high ringsize/mixin (12+) as minimum privacy level (after many debates), rather a "paranoid" level I could say, for that reason.

2. He would never release the coin if he had to sacrifice his anonymity (so did Haruto), partially because the country culture, especially strict corporate culture which questions any side project outside company interests. And that's his life (not purely abt the job or salary but sth about relationship/face, I'm not entirely sure).

All guys who follow this thread from beginning may recognize that we're, by no means, experts in this field; we created Sumokoin accidentally but with a purpose: an ultimately privacy-centric coin. Everything else is up to community judgement. Some feel ok with pseudonym, some not; some are ok with 10% premined (or unknown, yet-up-to 50% like Ethereum, probably 90% - 100% in some ICOs), others may only accept 5% or none. Unfortunately, we cannot please everyone. We also don't try to buy trust by all means, some principles will never change. Investment to any coin, even established one, is a very risky business. Nobody knows what would happen tomorrow, next year or next 5 years. So, if any doubt, pls don't buy the coin. Devs are not in rush, we have a long vision and commitment to Sumokoin and that's all we can give you guys right now.

Hi thx for reply,

I agree with many things in your post, so my comparison with the car salesman doesn't quite hold up.
I should have read a bit more about the coin before starting my rant.
I noticed also they have escrowed the premine until 2020 not sure exactly what that means, but I guess until that time those coins are not part or the market. I agree that it makes no sense to dump the coins in a healthy economy. But if they mentioned for instance the premined coins will slowly be released spread out over the next twenty years it would make me feel more comfortable.

So question I have now is will those 8.8 mill premined coins all be on the market in 2020 or only proportions of it, are all the escrowed wallets aimed to be released in 2020

So let's say one coin becomes worth more than a few dollars... the return on that premine would be phenomenal? Even after 3 years. What protects us against them pulling all that money out?








Without knowing someones true identity/ background one should probably not be doing business with them. This is why ebay works? You cut your risk down by buying from a vendor that has good ratings.
But you are not doing business with the developers. Sumokoin is an open software project. All the code is available on Github, so there is no need do trust the developers. If you want to run a node or mine you can check the code for yourself (or if you cannot, you can ask somebody you trust to do it for you).

Or if you want to buy coins from an exchange you are then trusting the exchange, not the developers. You have no idea who is selling the coins you are buying, you just trust that the exchange is being honest and you are in fact getting coins that can be withdrawn to your own wallet.

It would be different if there was no premine.
How exactly would it be different? Certainly the premine gives the developers the ability to crater the price of Sumokoin by dumping the premined coins to the market - but such action would make no economic sense. For a new adopter there is virtually no difference between a premine and people who just mined before I did or bought coins when they were cheap.

And most Monero devs are also pseudonymous. Does that somehow taint the Monero project?

Hello,

Thanks for  your reply.
First of, I think we should probably allow the devs to answer for themselves on this matter, no reasons to come up with justifications for them to be anonymous from my point of view, in the end a lot of other coins don't have this issue. Let's be critical instead of blind trust and see what the devs say about this.

Without knowing someones true identity/ background one should probably not be doing business with them. This is why ebay works? You cut your risk down by buying from a vendor that has good ratings. It would be different if there was no premine.

I read on page 1 that this coin is not specifically aimed for the japanese market (although ofcourse hopefully it will be succesful there) and there is no way to conclude the devs are japanese nor is there anyway to conclude if the names are doubtful? Unless I am missing some info?

Actions and intentions do count, however how do you figure out that these action and intentions have no higher endgoal? There is no way if you don't know the background/ identity. This is why people fall into scams all the time. It is the combi of 10% premine and not knowing who the guys are that stops me from putting my money in at the moment. 10% seems a hell of a lot/ why not 5% it should be more than enough.

 Let's say hypothetically speaking the devs are human beings and managed to educate themselves through hard work and figured out a way to make a fork of a coin like this (I honoustly don't know how hard that is). Now let's assume they want to get rich soon. (not entirely unlikely) What is the likelyhood these anonymous devs succomb to greed when things are moving too slow/ and they need money themselves? No way to trace em up. Perfect crime. We as investors/ luck seekers kindly obliged.

Next to that the fact that the premine is justified by mentioning that any good coin with a long term future needs a premine is just not true imo. Bitcoin had no premine, nor did monero, why does sumo need it really?

I am not saying I am right and you guys are wrong, but like I mentioned before is this not the same as buying a car from an anonymous salesmen? Is that ever a smart idea?

They are selling this coin to us, so I think it is fair to say that as potential clients we have the right to ask them these questions?

Last post from me I hope the devs can react to this.




that is not the same, I am not asking you to invest in my product.

we can all have/ show good intentions but people change when things go south. In the end all of us are here to make money and so are the devs?

Also why would they keep their identity hidden in the end I assume they are meeting up with companies? So their identities should be out in the open?

And if they are really behind their product there is no reason behind hiding identity?

Anyway nice coin, but without the above info I will give it a miss.

The developers provided three names at the top of the thread.  Perhaps those are pseudonyms (although that is doubtful) but they should not feel obligated to declare personal info.  Privacy seems to have certain benefits... consider, for instance that celebrities have to deal with paparazzi and security concerns that a person who isn't a publically-recognized persona doesn't need to bother with.  In some instances, individuals can also be subject to unwarranted or unjustified scrutiny by the state that they live in (particularly in corrupt or despotic countries).  It shouldn't matter to anyone besides yourself if you think the devs have nefarious motivations because they may (or may not) choose to be private.  A person can be anonymous and beneficial **or** be public and be a total good-for-nothing cretin.  Actions and intentions are what count.  You've presented a false dichotomy.

Maybe we all want to hold assets that are good stores of value, effective means of exchange, and are useful units of account (or "make money" as you put it).  We are taking a rationally-calculated risk based on evidence, our individual predictions of future outcomes arising from our present actions and predictions of the actions of others (as much as we can anticipate these anyway).

You cannot or should not expect to always please everybody.


I try to sync the wallet but it is stock for aware without moving any blocks and then it starts displaying this "2017-Jun-27 10:56:38.225884 [P2P4]IP 128.199.54.20 blocked."
What should I do?

I'm encountering similar behaviour in the daemon since booting this computer up tonight too,  I hadn't encountered this issue before and I'm unsure that it's a firewall problem in my case.  I'm planning on saving my wallets and reinstalling the software.   Jusf for a check I loaded the Aeon daemon (another cryptonote-based one) and that synced properly. (It's sort of annoying because I wanted to open up one of the wallets  Tongue .)

By no means an expert, I don't even know what a hard fork is. Can u eat with that?

And yes I was aware, I meant member of sumokoin forum.

Y altcoins are risky, but if you are denying certain possible red flags you are increasing your riskfactor to a point that you shouldn't call it an investment but a donation to charity.

218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [SUMO] SUMOKOIN - 🔏 Digital Cash For High-Confidential Transactions 🔏 on: June 27, 2017, 07:54:18 PM
you must be one of the classiest members of sumokoin I presume?

Anyway the fact that the dev of bitcoin was anonymous has nothing to do with what I am asking.
Due to the popularity of bitcoin (with a proper platform) people will now invest in it on large scale(also people that at first were very hesitant are now slowly rethinking their options as bitcoin goes mainstream)
it has already proven to be solid and not a scam.

before that bitcoin was a unique investment opportunity. Would u say sumokoin is the same breakthrough, not really, it is a fork of a good altcoin? So stop comparing peers and apples.

Who in their right minds will buy a car from somebody anonymous? Knowing that there is a 10% chance they will later take away your wheels and ignition. Oh sure let's just trust the anonymous car salesman he seems trustworthy.

Most top altcoin devs show their identity..... and besides I have been in to many bitcoin scams that all started like they were trustworthy. So forgive me for being skeptical until proven wrong.

 I am not trying to talk this coin down, I want a reason to invest, so I hope the devs change their minds and just open up on who they are. Until that moment I would advise anyone to stay away!

LOL ok. Give me then the real name and identy of Satoshi, the Bitcoin initial dev. All these people using it dont care who the fuck Satoshi really is. If you do give it though I am gonna give up Sumo and then shut up and die
