Hi all,

I'm looking forward to new ECC eCurrency.

New Start, New Beginnings and hopefully a fruitful rebirth for us all.

[rav3n_pl]

Why not use v 0.10 Core code?
Maybe some pseudonymus system to change coins? What about coins in exchange?

[sologap]

is this the same as old ECC? what will happen to our old coins ?

[cryptcollector]

Did nobody even bother reading my last post on the old thread??? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=647254.msg10910919#msg10910919

No this has nothing to do with the old ECC, that went defunct a year or more ago.

The current ISO E-Currency coins will be swapped for the new ECC eCurrency coins.
They will be swapped on a 1 for 1 basis from a pre-mine that has been done on the new incarnation.

An Abe blockchain explorer is being worked on for both the old and new coins. It shall be up soon, so all can see for themselves how much there is of each coin in total and be able to see every swap hopefully.

The maine particulars are not set as yet and Adaryian shall post an update in the near future.

Please take the time to read my last post on the original E-Currency thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=647254.msg10910919#msg10910919

More information will become available in due course.

well you are making us confused as fuck! the first ECC was renamed to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=728071.0

do you mean that it is the same one x3 renamed ?

[sologap]

also if this is ISO why you put ECC in the ann !!!

ECC is not dead it is listed on a exchange and it being traded. I also hold and stake ECC.

You should have changed it to eCUR or eCNY but not a ticker from another coin which creates confusion. I missed your last post otherwise I would have said something about the ticker change.

[cakir]

You should change ticker. Because ECC is already being used by Easy Clear Coin.

The whole point of a ticker is that nobody uses the same one so you can easily identify a coin. The exchanges use them to indicate markets and twocoins using the same ticker messes their system up.

[adaryian]

My responses will be in bold.  Please give me time to respond.  If I get bombarded by a lot of people I'd rather do a single response covering multiple questions.

-----

There is already a coin with the ticker ECC (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=728071.0)

What do we do if we hold coins in the old wallet?

We had looked all over and only came across one that was using ECC over a year ago and was one page in length.  We thought it was free to use.  We checked all major exchanges and the result was nothing.  If we cannot trade that one specific exchange, than so be it.

As I have said, please PM me.  I will accept the old ISO with a specific address that is new and unused and you'll be the only one who can deposit into it.  Let me know your ECC address and whatever you send me I will send you back 1:1 in ECC in exchange for ISO until ISO has died off.

is this the same as old ECC? what will happen to our old coins ?

This is eCurrency formerly known as E-Currency.  We had an overwhelming amount of previous issues, and instead of just dropping the coin, we opted to do an exchange 1:1 ratio for previous coins to this one, so no one gets left out.

Why not use v 0.10 Core code?
Maybe some pseudonymus system to change coins? What about coins in exchange?

We will do a client upgrade in the future.  Right now we're more concerned about getting the coin back in running condition.  Future updates are surely to come.  We are working with what code we have and what we know will work.  We are doing a 1:1 exchange on ISO -> ECC .. That being said, we are again giving notice as Cryptocollector had said, "Pull your coins.."  I hope you'll work out the needed code should you wish for a P2Pool for the new currency.  If so, I'll be very happy to put one up!

also if this is ISO why you put ECC in the ann !!!

Because the topic is of ECC not ISO and there is only so much room in the topic to write information.  If I had more I'd put ISO to ECC but I don't.

well, i'm watching this coin

Awesome!  Glad to have you, and hope to have more!  I hope everyone can see we're trying to be as transparent about this very difficult process and on top of that making sure everyone who was with us before is taken care of to the best of our abilities as well.  This is a difficult transition, we completely understand.  But this is the route we took.  If you don't like the route we took, move along.  We don't need any FUD or trolling.   This is a very serious subject to us and we're working very diligently on resolving every matter that comes to us.  Most importantly, patience is key.  If you happen to post something in the thread and it does not get resolved in a timely manner, please do not hesitate to PM me.  It may of simply been overlooked, not ignored.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=728071.0

We're not changing ECC ticker.  The ticker may of been used by another crypto, but there is no patent or likewise to state that they own said ticker.   When it comes to an exchange, please make note that most exchanges don't just put the ticker ID next to it, they also include the crypto's name as well.  If this seems to be a bigger issue down the road, then potentially; yes.. we will change it.  For now it stays.

As I've said above it doesn't really matter too much.  If you have a problem differentiated between two cryptos who have the same ticker then I wish you luck in trading.  I'd suggest to pay attention for now.  We are not trading on the same exchange they are, so really there is no issues.  We will continue to use ECC.  The strong prevails.  So should they make it to stronger exchanges before us then we will look into further development of changing the ticker.

I do want to state however, it was a complete oversight.  We had looked all over for ECC and only came up with a dead coin.  Again we did some Google searches and checked major exchanges and resulted with nothing, thus making us think it was available.  But right now our focus is not for a ticker.  It is to get the currency moving again since it had been dead for a while, when there were issues.  We will fix what needs to be fixed when the timing is right.  The ticker ID is not on the highest priority list right now and when that comes we want to give enough notice for everyone to update their clients.  Probably when we update the client from 0.8.6 to the latest release based off of Bitcoin at that time.


Hope that answers some questions.

Thanks,
Adaryian

Looks like we already have quite the hashing power going on right now.

Many things to do tomorrow.  Please be sure to get all your ISO back into your local wallet so we can begin giving you a 1:1 exchange.  Any block mined of ISO past 5pm EST on March 28th, 2015 will not be credited.

I'll be in touch with everyone tomorrow.  Any questions/comments, please be sure to leave them on this thread!

dev are you going to provide us with roadmap after swap is been done? would sure intrest me where this coin is head at and whats the short/long term plans..

[rav3n_pl]

1. What snapshot and on which version of ISO you make to get accounts balances?
2. Do people should use ISO client version before tragic hardfork?
3. What addresses will be used (1.... or E....) and how 1:1 swap will be done when old chain is forked and broken?

This is really not easy task to replace failed launch and even more failed hard fork.
You should reconsider and tell all of us what and how you want to do.

There will be a roadmap for the development of the coin.  We have already had conversations with a larger company in the media industry who is wanting to adopt a crypto.  Beyond that I can't really say more, honestly.  I'm not really allowed to as it's not set in stone at least in terms of time frame.  So I don't want to give any sort of accurate or inaccurate dates.  Also we're waiting on a formal meeting with some key figures of the company. 

We do believe that this will be a large increase in the value of eCurrency.

1.) 0.8.6 The Original E-Currency, the one with the address that's starts with the number '1'.
2.) Read #1.
3.) We are using addresses that start with '1' .  The old chain wouldn't be forked and broken, because there will always be a few connections.. as we're still running the client/daemon and we will mine the few blocks needed to get those ISO into one location for the 1:1 swap.  The first part is getting people to start swapping their old ISO balance out with the new one.

Also thank you for updating the README.md -- It was so late I didn't notice the bad formatting.  Appreciate the help on that.

Extremly cool coin

• Stolen name
• No exchange
• No use at all

looks like this developer is not doing his homework at all

Thanks for your input.

We just rebirthed our currency as of yesterday.  It's not even been 24 hours.  You're no use at all.  Go somewhere else.

A thief and agressive....good combo

Why not call your coin BTC or could you not think of that?

[adaryian]

I've updated the original post to state we will be replacing the ECC with the ticker eCC.

Again, from the beginning we didn't find anything regarding ECC and thought it was open for use.  While we're not currently on an exchange, and we're not planning on being on an exchange this very second as that is not our goal to just trade the currency to BTC as of this very second and have further plans, it will be coming soon enough along with other updates to the client/daemon.

I would appreciate it if any heated messages be removed.  I have removed any heated messages of mine from the thread as it is serving no valuable purpose.  My apologies go out to ECC for this mistake as it was unintentional and was not directly to affect them in anyway from the get go.

Our official pool will be going down for a quick maintenance.  There are some lines of code I need to adjust for better efficiency.  It won't take long.  Probably about 5 minutes.  This will happen at 12PM EDST.

Guy's why waiting for...? let's try ECC......
