I pledged on the sixth of July that I would give 100% of my staking to the stake bounty. And I deliver. I'm adding 25282.8479 HYP to the stake bounty (pAvP3gYfuyDVbUt98ToMbwU9rwEdBV1dHW).



Now, if two other persons would pledge to send some of their stake on the bounty, that would be great I would move to 25% of my stake. Other don't have to send 100% or even 25%. Just send. And after a while, the bounty could feed itself by pure staking.

Additionally (I leave it to presstab since he is handling the bounty wallet), if the bounty is meant to stake periodically, it will by itself secure the blockchain. Killing plenty of birds with one stone!

Come on, go pledging, HYPsters

You should remember that open source is only as good as the time you spend at actually checking the code.
=> open source is good, audited open source is better

Speaking of that; a lesson I learnt from karmacoin is to share the OP account to handle scalability. This is what we've done for monero and it helps.

Well said! And thank your for the updates!

C'est ce que j'ai fait. Sauf peut-être pour des raisons grammaticales (je me trompe toujours avec les "-ait" et "-ai").

Foxy lady

Well, thanks for the encouragement There is no premine left, save the part for the two bounties and I will certainly not take them I hope presstab and dallas5 will pass by to read your thanks.

Regarding the push request: I was wrong, the code was merged, so ignore all of my "presstab repository" rambling. Apologies for the confusion it generated.

Si tu achètes 8 BTC de Monero maintenant, dans 10 ans peut-être. Si millionnaire te suffit, je dirais entre 3 et 5 ans.
Si tu souhaite juste être milliardaire en anciens francs, un an ça devrait aller

Must have been a language difficulty

Last version is 1.10. It was done by presstab, mintcointeam attributed it to itself.
I try compiling from source from mintcoin project repo and the repo did not have 1.10 since the start was still very slow and the blockchain was compatible (whilst it is supposed not to be compatible with 1.10)
Then I moved to presstab's code. I know him well from TEK and now HYP (we are co-dev on this one), I am even the one who proposed presstab for helping with code. So I compiled with his git repo and it worked flawlessly (well, I am still synchronizing the blockchain but otherwise, no complaint).
So :
- trust: checked
- working: checked
- latest code: checked

I'll talk with presstab and cryptomummy about submitting a PR (push request, merging presstab's code with mintcoin-project code).

I think that you are postulating that cryptomommy is a scamer, and then confirmation bias starts rolling. So I'd say the best course of action for us is to just let the facts speak for themselves, since there is no way you could be convinced otherwise.

Now on the OP. Thanks!

Vanity address generator (source only)

If this is not something you can apply for, you can spread the word around about Monero as being a serious coin. Target newcomers in alt first - so much pump and dumps where newcomers get scammed.

I see you already added the DNS Seed to the features matrix.

Until what get resolved? I must have missed a part. Presstab's code is legit, I don't know about the other 1.10 wallet.

I PM'd him

I assumed they gave up. Combination of assuming I would never deliver, plus no one else to work with them (their other partner left Mintcoin earlier, and TheAlty too) and finally and most importantly, price going down while he doesn't have any premine left. Plus being busy and moving on to other things as well as conflict between them.

The NGO is meant to have a legal body for providing tax-deduction for fiat donation. Fiat => BTC => MINT (and hopefully one day Fiat => MINT), then staking. And once the money is needed by a Beneficiary (an environmental NGO), the MINT is converted back to fiat (if and only if it is not possible for them to buy straight with MINT or even BTC).

With time it could also lead to a greater confidence, but this is for later.

We don't plan to put the cart before the horese. Recognition comes from action, not the other way around. In other word, the NGO is not mean to increase confidence, it is meant to make something possible. Once it delivers, confidence will come.

Hi everyone,

I did not want to post on the thread before I have something constructive to announce. This is the case now. I will take advantage of the opportunity to also reply to some other things.

Wallet 1.10

The old mintcointeam dev is not the one who wrote wallet 1.10. It was presstab (he was paid for this, but not credited). Credit where credit is due.

Linux version
(requested here)
Install (in YOURNAME/cryptos/mintcoin, plus create a MINT shortcut on the desktop)
You really have to just open up a terminal, paste this command line and press enter. That's really all, no coding skill required! I can only see fours cases where it would not work:
- you do not have a recent distribution (e.g.: more than one year old) => update
- you do not have an Intel or AMD CPU (e.g.: Raspberry Pi) => won't work
- you do not have the correct dependancies => install them. The most obvious one is git (apt-get install git, yum git, pacman git, depending on your distribution)
- you use a non-English Desktop Environemment and the said DE does not use "Desktop" as the name for the Desktop => change the Desktop part in the command-line accordingly.

Plus, paspi has setup a ppa for Ubuntu-based distros and YamashitaRen has setup an AUR package for Arch-based distros (thus Manjaro)

Remember to delete the blockchain files.

FreeBSD version
The command above, with minimal tweaking, should work for FreeBSD too. Skeem, this is for you


Update
Presstab has no interest in updating Mintcoin (especially after not having been credited for this). But if it was, it would be this code

paspi, if you have a git with the latest mintcoin, I'd be happy to update the command-line accordingly


Mintcoin Fund
It never goes as expected, right? Well, Mintcoin Fund was no exception. Several back and forth with the French administration, plus chairmen being unreliable, I had to change things a lot for accomodating this. The first and hopefully final draft was just sent today. I'm expecting two weeks for a (hopefully positive) reply. For the record, I am on another NGO and this took even longer, so nothing that strange about it.

I would lie if I said that the takeover by Jessica did not influence positively my actions.

Miscellaneous
Some answers to various other questions left unanswered since my last post.

I don't pump and those who now me know this. Hyperstake is an experiment in PoS and results will inspire NOBL's transition to full PoS. As for Monero, it is Bitcoin 2.0 in my book - buy 8 BTC of it and don't sell before at least one year (if I was pumping, I would tell you to buy and sell a bit after). Or just read my interview on coins source.

Mintpal and Mintcoin came to life around the same time: first week of February. Even if they are officially unrelated, this is quite a coincidence. Considering that Mintcoin was Mintpal's first pump and it basically propelled the exchange to major league and that the exchange was great looking from day one, people have suspicions that Mintcoin was just a scamcoin meant to boost Mintpal's visibility. If that's the case, it worked very well but most importantly, it doesn't matter anymore because Mintcoin has a life of its own and the dev, whoever they were, are not there anymore.

I still own the donation wallet and I did not touch the bounty - and I won't. Paspi wil have the whole of his bounty, Redwood too, MintcoinFund too.

I read that mintcointeam threatened me. That's true, but this is nothing compared to what they did to Jessica. That and "forgetting" to credit presstab for his contribution to the wallet.

The premine have never been delivered. It was only pledged. The 50 millions for Green Sahara have never been delivered. As for the 5 millions for the Mintcoin Fund, I still have them, because I have not been asked any money yet by the French administration (I will, eventually). I did not bother getting compensation for the stamps

Cryptomommy is legit, I even called her (and the voicemail says Jessica Hartmann, so it would be a pretty elaborate scam) , we've had several mail exchanges over the previous months. Of course, I could be lying and be part of the conspirary too I don't know this goattrading and Paspi doesn't have his bounty, I still have  it.

This is all for now.

Avec d'une part l'augmentation très importante de la durée de vie en bonne santé à venir et d'autre part la montée en puissance du Bitcoin, je ne dirais pas ça.

(pas toucher, svp, laissez-là sombrer, j'en aurais besoin de temps en temps)

Yes, I arrived in January 2014, after I finished writing my master's thesis. The worst thing is I wanted to join for one year...

I am not all in Monero, I have other altcoins. But my next fiat is planned to be mostly Monero. If you plan to trade, have some BTC left for dumps. Or else short. But I am terrible at both. I'd say 60% of my money is on monero (depend on valuation) and the rest in other alts, all PoS save for some Zetacoin - NOBL, MINT, HBN, CAP, PHS, TEK, GRW, HYP.

I don't think this will help you in anyway, but hey, here it is
