Today I tried to re-install the wallet, having backed up my wallet.dat file ... but Windows Defender is blocking install due to detection of "Win32/Tiggre!rfn" trojan virus.  Now I get that Windows Defender does throw up false positives sometimes, but I have neither the time nor the patience, nor the technical background to sort the issue out.

So I went to look for the online wallet at Coinwallet.co ... but that website is no longer active. Uggh.

I'm just going to salt away my wallet.dat file and come look at it in a year or so. Hopefully things are better developed.

I haven't been able to sync since mid-February. Just deleted my peers.dat file as you suggested but I don't see any change in status. Still have zero active connections and making no progress downloading blocks.

Hey guys. I'm all in. I've been looking for 'micro-cap' type tokens that just have explosive potential over the next 18 months, and this perfectly fits the bill. I'm expecting Bernie to announce another run around March 2019, which gives us about 14 months to accumulate at these crazy low prices. I'm downloading my wallet, hitting the faucet, dusting off some of my exchange accounts. Most grateful if someone can help get me up to speed to save me from reading this entire thread:

1. How does the BERNcash token help or assist Bernie's run for the Democratic nomination?
2. Besides faucet, mining, staking, and buying, are there other ways I might acquire some of these coins?
3. I don't see a white paper. Can someone point me to a link?
4. What are total tokens, and who are they held by?
5. I live on the West Coast and Bernie won my state. Happy to represent at events when the time comes. We have rural, red counties, that I'd be happy to visit. :-)

Bit-Z voting. Looks like I voted 100 VTC, submitted my screenshot etc. Now I see that Pokercoin has been accepted, and I have another 100 VTC available to vote, and that votes are still being accepted, it appears like. Is there any point to voting my other 100 VTC? Will I get allocated more   of the POKER reward if I cast these votes as well? (Lol ... now it seems like fractions of a penny, but someday we all just know that someday PokerStars will want to buyout the entire chain!)

Update: We found that the proxy connection switched on in the wallet is causing the problem. If this is turned off, wallet starts to synchronize:

settings --> options--> Network --> unselect "Connect through SOCKS proxy"


send reward , if this worked on the following adress
Poker wallet adress: PUcCfTXmFVSoMMkrnxoUPJdeRKZ2qwsHvb

Ummm, doesn't help. I think the wallet simply doesn't work. The faucet is empty. No exchanges. Hard to be optimistic here ...

Yeah ... I don't have that file on my PC. Anyway I've just given up. Installing and using a wallet shouldn't require this much time and effort on user's part. (I've got several other wallets, including desktop, so I don't think it is me.)

I did vote at Bit-z ... and still collecting Pokercoins ... hope for the best.

I don't find this "%APPDATA%\POKERCOIN" on my PC ... desktop wallet doesn't sync with anything ...

"Open your wallet, and make sure you are connected to another wallet.
You are connected if you see the icon Wallet Connections in the lower right corner of your wallet."


I'm not connected to 'another wallet.' And this gives no explanation why I need to connect my wallet to 'another wallet', and/or how I would go about that. It couldn't get more useless ...

How to get my desktop wallet to sync??

Thanks for the free chips, but your software isn't working for me. I sat at the table 2x and the 'call' and 'fold' buttons don't work. They're dead. So I have to surrender my BB.

Thanks.

Exactly. I'm not interested in a discussion of the merits. Just seeking a liquid exchange where I can do that.

Is there a liquid exchange where can an American resident trade their btc for RMB?? I have an account at BTC-China but just learned today that they have disabled trading (?) for US residents. (God I hate living in the US ... time to move, again!)

This is exactly why I told OP that posting/projecting such specifics about a Phase 4 is absurd. It results in this pointless, and circuitous logic that because Phase 4 is impossibly large we have no business conducting a Phase 2 & 3. Phase 4 doesn't exist ... it is like you are protesting Santa Clause' skid marks. Quite pointless.


Here is the inside scoop guys. Blockpay++ will never get to a Phase 4. If things go well enough they will be acquired by a POS software vendor which can almost instantaneously deploy the software across millions of terminals and simultaneously coordinate an education campaign directed at its merchants. The acquirer will have no choice, and will gladly buyout token holders at a very handsome multiple of our original cost.

You are being unrealistic. They are raising less than US$1.0-mil right now. At least they have a product, and a business plan. I'm grateful and excited for that. There are 'stocks' or shell companies that raise many times more on the sole prospect of buying out another company, i.e. they have neither a product nor a business plan. Like I said before, if you are uncomfortable with this level of risk, there are always T-notes. As an investor I don't want them babysitting or holding anybody's hand at this point. They've released a good deal of information, and need to be focused on building the business ...

Serious answer here:  I think this venture is so speculative, it is all but impossible for the founding team to be laying that out at this stage. We just have to accept that it is an extremely speculative investment,  with no promises attached. Do they even have any revenues at this point? Any clear expectation of what revenues expectations are realistic? I don't see how they could ...


That aside, even Warren Buffett bet on penny stocks, even loaded up at times, when he was working with a very small bankroll. If you look at this as an extremely speculative penny stock, and then invest in a select basket of them, I'd think you would do fairly well. Too much digging into funnymentals could just get in the way of a sound investment strategy.

Dude, logic and common sense is not the right way to frame this. Think internet bubble circa 1997-2000. When we push the price to 0.10 btc per, all them other facts that you so kindly point out won't mean jack squat. If it makes you more comfortable then invest in treasury notes. With notes all your returns are contractually defined. ;-)

OP,

I have some underwriting experience, IPO & secondaries, and can tell you this is insane:

Limited Amount! Great discounts available in this pre-ICO, all based on Opening rate of 2017 ICO

Phase1:   600,000 tokens   @ 1:1.20 OPENPOS tokens/each   Special Buyback
Phase2:   1,400,000 tokens   @ 0.000288 BTC tokens/each   42.40% Discount
Phase3:   3,000,000 tokens   @ 0.000360 BTC tokens/each   28% Discount
Phase4:   2nd ICO   @ 0.000500 BTC tokens/each   Initial Price


Here are the facts:

A. YOU don't know when the secondary will take place. Timing is contingent on future developments. Unless you are purporting to know the future, you don't know.

B. YOU DON't KNOW where any secondary offering will be priced. My best guess is that it is priced at some discount (10-30% ??) to the PREVAILING MARKET.  If the prevailing market is .0004 btc per, and you absolutely must raise cash, likely the new tokens will be offered at a significant discount to 0.0004. IF the prevailing market is closer to 0.01 btc per, your offer price will be much different, but again likely at some discount to market. It is absolutely insane for you to try and state where the market will be over the entirety of 2017. Think about it like this: Are we to assume you will work to suppress prices if they exceed 0.0005 by a wide margin?!? Your current statement appears to imply this.

Please stop referencing a specific time and price for any secondary - and just acknowledge it is all contingent.

That said, I am ALL IN with the few coins I've not already committed elsewhere. Hope to sign up to your sig campaign when it gets underway.

:-)

I'm all-in, with all the coin that I don't already have tied up in other ICOs or otherwise.

Please save me a slot in your sign campaign. I've only been lurking on Bitcointalk of late, but happy to be active again once the campaign gets under way.

Must go belly up, I think. Unless some VC-type of angel investor wants the name and reputation of Bitfinex enough to buy them out. Not sure I see that happening. As a community we need a decent, large exchange with some characteristics of centralization to keep spreads tight and liquidity decent.
