I got my Satoshi van gen



Can I suggest that every service node starts with "Satoshi......" to be valid.

This will make sure that everyone tries out the new Van Gen  

Actually, I think we should make this an enforcement as a way to stop some people flooding the network with farms of nodes. It takes about 10 hrs to get a Satoshi address. So there are only so many nodes you can create overnight.

Any views?

hehe, nice idea!

Maybe we can ask servicenodes to create a special vanity address for every 30% payment they'll get, lol.
Maybe addresses starting with SayThankYou... or SayThanks...  
Anyway, this can be a valid way of occupying the CPU for a while (for whatever reason).

Damn, why don't I have a Satoshi - address yet.

I will have to beat you by creating a SatoshiN - address, but I can't really let my computers run at full speed because the whole room is already cooking with those record heat summer days.

Richer in SPR poorer in BTC

Been playing with the wallet.

Can't really find any bugs. I'm sure there is the odd one, so I'll keep playing.

Who is AWOLAND that is updating Spreadcoin's github?

https://github.com/awoland?tab=activity

Look like good contributions. But who has access to the repo?

I set up access to all extant contributors, plus those that volunteered:

https://github.com/orgs/spreadcoin/teams/owners

PHS dev palmdetroit is early contrbutor, as is awoland:

https://github.com/spreadcoin/spreadcoin/commit/34d0348a1b4b28a983296d565917abb7391a2529

As far as I'd be concerned, the more the merrier, the more solidly founded the community. I'd go so far as to recommend the development of some sort of technical education programme focused on the coin and its features.

Cheers

Already working on it.

It will be called

"Spread the knowledge"
"brought to you by Spreadcoin"


Stay tuned for more.

I'm certainly interested!

In 2017, it would be nice to make a start on a decentralized Uber.

We should have a BTC exchange by then, and many more people using altcoins.

Countries around the world either allow or ban Uber. What a great void to fill. Lets not call it a 'taxi' service, but a car sharing service. Like AirBnB, only for cars and motorbikes

Hi everybody,

I am new to spreadcoin, but from what I can see, things are pretty awesome! What I understood as pros untill now:

- smooth coin decrease instead of halving
- compact transactions
- only solomining
- quite rare

Are there things I missed?

So can anybody give me a short recap of why this coin was in the coinmarketcap top 100 first and decreased so much? Any issues with mining perhaps?

Welcome!

Brief summary:

The lead dev running the project went awol in Feb.

There was a base infrastructure, but no direction with the former lead dev.

The community has stepped up. We are updating the infrastructure to Bitcoin Core with a second tier of service nodes, and we have introduced a defined direction.

aaand mining this coin is a right pain in the backside - as without pools - it needs to be done in solo ...

originally this was a novel concept - but it a dismal failure when it comes to distribution of coins to the public who is more concerned with the use of the coin and the applications they can use the coin for ( which is still in the process and the community at large - especially those involved directly with development - are doing an awesome job at ) ...

an argument i have had since the very beginning ...

if distribution of the coin is the main source of purchases for the apps on the up an coming servicenodes - then the easier the distribution access - the better ... purchasing coins on the exchange is one thing ... but for a miner ( like we are ) its a no-brainer that we mine the coins ...

BUT - unfortunately - its all about a 'no-pool' policy ( or as is the case now - a low pool policy ) which makes it a very specific way to mine ( solo ) ... and as such - interests only those that are willing to take the time to do so ...

dont get me wrong - i am FOR the coin and support the plans that are in the process ... but have ALWAYS been against the way one mines this coin ...

mr spread did an amazing thing by revealing a coin that is specific to its own design ... but when the fanfare dies down and all is said and done - what is left are the only things that keep this coin alive ... its community and its continued increase in minted coins ...

we all know where that has now ...

mining is at an all time low - and the interest that was once a great thing that was working in its favor - is now working against it ... its difficult mining process ...

simplify that - and the overall interest AND awareness is raised ...

i speak from a miners point of view - and one that still mines this coin from time to time - but always turn back to the simplified systems to mine ... if only just because its an easier setup to mine other coins - and switch between them without any real infrastructure changes ... especially with our farm ...

Here is the problem with your argument.

1. Bitcoin now has 5 pools that account for 60% of the total hashing of Bitcoin. Bitcoin mining is centralized.

2. Making it easy to switch is, err, not a priority.

3. The mining of SPR is a function of price. Increase demand for services has a positive impact on price, miners switch over.

4. Private pools can be created. I've always said I like pools. SPR makes pools more difficult to operate, so that encourages decentralization.

Me and a few others have asked you for a windows AMD miner. I know you have linux, but we don't use it.

Code:

2. Download a miner.

Windows - NVIDIA Spreadcoin CCMiner Suprnova Fork: Download here
Linux - NVIDIA Spreadcoin CCMiner Suprnova Fork: Download here
Linux - AMD Spreadcoin SGMiner Suprnova Fork: Download here

Also, we have something we would like you to look at in terms of sending rewards from service nodes to miners connected to pools. Will PM when the white paper is done (any day now).

Unfortunately I had so much trouble compiling the Win AMD miner, but I'll try again as soon as my build environment is ready.

I would mine your supernova pool if you have decent windows AMD miners.
