I keep my MNCs in there until I can convert them to BTC and then to LTC, then I transfer the LTC amount elsewhere. Considering it's relatively low profile due to MNCs being relatively under the radar, it's fairly safe at the moment, IMO.

Testing the new release with stratum mining and pleased to report that my stale shares are practically no more! Will keep it running some more, but feeling confident that this bugbear has been dealt with.

Host a server for a game that has a high-demand of computing power on the server side. Or put them to work doing protein-folding or whatever other project BOINC et al offer.

Nice. Just built a new PC with a Geforce GTX 660 onboard and getting about 110kh/s with the current release, so will be interesting to see if my stales drop with stratum support.

I'll stick with Crypto Trade, thanks all the same.

Pooler's cpuminer was recently updated with stratum support.
I will try to integrate the changes into cudaminer soon (for those who don't know, cudaminer is a fork of cpuminer)

Looking forward to it!

No improved and simpler method of converting fiat to btc and back, such that the local village idiot can do so easily without getting confused, will mean that the price will just stagnate or decline at worst. Address this and the price will go back up, simple as that. Considering the number of alternative currencies springing up, which some people are naively or arrogantly ignoring, this makes a simple fiat conversion system that will give MtGox and co a run for their money even more critical.
BTC should be what Ripple is, a medium for buying things that allows some degree of privacy and can bypass ludicrous credit card and merchant fees, not an overspeculated pseudoasset like some people treat it to be.

Really need to develop some sort of universal payment infrastructure first before creating any more coins, IMO.
|
|

What it boils down to at the end of the day is that there needs to be a fairly standardised and easy to use interface to allow goods to be purchased electronically using altcoins (either one type or a combination of several in one payment) and be able to convert them into fiat at the merchant end fairly quickly to pay suppliers, rent and so forth, or else all cryptocurrencies will become follies. Whether that be Ripple or something else coming up on the horizon, something will be needed and soon. No interface = GAME OVER.

Out of the alts, Litecoin is the only one so far that has had more development and markets available compared to clone coins that really only get traded on exchanges at the moment instead of being used to buy things. I daresay it is probably more decoupled from Bitcoin than the other coins as a result, meaning it is less susceptible to price fluctuations resulting from Bitcoin going up and down. Just really need to get its own dedicated fiat exchange without needing Bitcoin as an intermediary step, and something like a Bitspend equivalent to really get it taking off.
For the rest of the alts, would be advisable to start doing the same, or else face eventual extinction. That said, would be nice if there was a universal equivalent of Bitspend, would make using the coins I've mined to buy things more easier (particularly tunes from Beatport or other music sites).

As in, I copied the files from that link into the bin folder and tried running the cuda win32 file from there.
If you could build the latest one, that would be appreciated. I'm not as advanced in programming and IT as I used to be, given it's been a good few years since I last tinkered around with PCs. I'm used to just unzipping files into directories, then clicking on the appropriate executable file and away I go, like how cbuchner1's CUDAminer app works.
I meant, specifically what errors are you getting Anyway, I have built the 32bit versions and put them in: https://github.com/cdmackie/rpcminer-mod/tree/master/bin/win32Thanks! Ok, just tried running it and I got the following error message: C:\Mining\RPCMIN~1\RPCMIN~2\bin\win32\RPCMIN~1.EXE The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction. CS:0e4b IP:0528 OP:63 6f 6e 74 65 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application I'm running a GT 220M, so that could be an issue. If it also helps, it uses Compute Capability 1.1. Would be nice if I could just take the relevant code from cbuchner1's program and adapt it to something like CGminer, which I know normally works fine with my laptop, but my C++ programming skills are too basic at the moment to be able to do that.

oh no!

Pfft, Neutrinocoins after Atomicoins!

Looking forward to using it once I've mined a few more.

Hi, I saw a few posts on this forum (more on mincointalk) offering to buy or sell MinCoins and I thought that an orderbook on google docs might be useful until we get a real exchange, so here is a link to one I made, I hope its pretty self explanatory. Also, there is a chat with other people viewing the document at the same time https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Avr2ejsmtHNsdHhMT2pGX1BVdUVLQzVZdGJEbUZiT3c&usp=share Of course, this is in no way official and all exchanging of coins is outside of the orderbook. This really puts Feathercoin's success in perspective. It started AFTER Mincoin, there will be over thirty times MORE of them, and feathercoin is STILL trading at 5x the price per coin. Adjusted for the relative numbers of each, that makes Feathercoin 150x more valuable. Wow. Can't wait for Mincoin to blow it out of the water.

Nice to have a trading option at last.

It's just Litecoin with 4x the amount of coins that will end up being generated. Unless there is something else major that differentiates it from the rest of the alts, I can't see it lasting. I mean, Bytecoin barely seems to get a mention at the moment.

The biggest problem governments will have with bitcoin is the anonymity involved in transactions. They will point to money laundering and criminals using it as an untraceable medium of wealth as the reason to shut it down. Without that they won't have leg to stand on in a court of law. You'd think there aren't any real money laundering operations to warrant gov scrutiny.
People should pay taxes on bitcoins. It's probably the only thing that can prevent a complete shutdown.
Wasn't there a ruling by FinCen not too long ago stating something to the effect of declaring what is converted back to fiat for capital gains purposes, meaning it's semi-legit in the US?
