[ANN] SpreadCoin | Decentralize Everything (decentralized blockexplorer coming)

[jjjordan]

I could go ahead and select them (quantity/blocks) manually but that would be a physical and mental challenge:
ARROWDOWN, SPACE, ARROWDOWN, SPACE, ARROWDOWN, SPACE, ARROWDOWN, SPACE, ARROWDOWN, SPACE,  and so on... thousands of times!
That "problem" is very peculiar and I wouldn't think it would a be a very common one.
Still - does anybody have any ideas how to proceed, so I make my life easier?

AutoHotKey script would look like this:

Code:

^#!x::
Loop, 500
{
    Send,{Down}{space}
    Sleep, 50
}
Return

Explanation:

Code:

^#!x::

means you can trigger this macro by clicking Ctrl+Alt+Windows+x simultaneously.

then the following code (until Return is reached) is executed:

Code:

Loop, 500
{
    Send,{Down}{space}
    Sleep, 50
}

which means we are creating a Loop that runs 500 times, and each time we are sending a {Down} and a {space} keystroke,
followed by a small pause of 50 milliseconds so that spreadcoin-GUI can catch up. (probably not needed)

You'll need to adjust the numbers, hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks georgem, this is a very valuable advice.
I might try AutoHotKey first on a VM.

I was looking at the debug console - can I use

Code:

sendfrom <fromaccount> <tospreadcoinaddress>

and limit to about 1000 thousand blocks (or whatever the 100,000bytes limit is)?
I will just move all the blocks to another address. Still it will be repetitive, but it will only be couple of times...
I am not sure how exactly sendfrom works... Hopefully this will do the trick.

I don't recommend sendfrom.

Better use coin control UI to see what is selected before you trigger the payment.

I'd make mergers of 500 blocks each.

PS: AutoHotKey is really really easy (only problem: it's windows only). You just have to install it and create a test.ahk, then edit the file (right key), paste my code and then run the file (also right key).
But be careful to have coin control UI open and the focus on the first checkbox you want to start with.
If you aren't sure, just open an empty textfile and see what the macro does before you use it.

Could you elaborate on this...
EDIT:I tried it with small amounts and it works fine...

Because you basically have no control where the money will be taken from to create the payment.
You want to explicitely tell your wallet that it should use all those 6 SPR blocks as input.
This is not guaranteed when you use sendfrom, sendtoaddress etc...
Except ofcourse if you guarantee that the SPR address you are sending to is not in the same wallet where all the 6 SPR blocks reside,
or else the next sendfrom might take from this 3000 (or whatever) SPR address instead of using the 6 SPR blocks.

Thanks georgem, AutoHotKey worked as expected.
(You tried to throw me under the bus with this {space}, but it only took me a jiffy to put an S there)
I can't tell you how many times in the past I' would only launch MS Word to edit text for its macros.
Because it is easy and I knew how to do it. AutoHotKey changes the game...

I tried to use sendfrom and that's what I've found out:
1. I have 3 addresses - sent from address 3 (balance 202SPR) to address 2 210SPR.
2. Coins that were not enough (8SPR) were taken from address 1
Now that makes sense - if it's not enough sendfrom will get more money from another address, and not address 2, because this is where they are being sent to.
But what happens if there was zero balance in 1 (or did not exist at all) in this example - not sure, and too lazy to test.

Thank you again georgem.
I'll stop distracting you now, and will leave you working on spreadcoin.

So I asked myself today, 'what is more likely to happen over the next few months?'

So I asked myself today, 'what is more likely to happen over the next few months?'

I don't think its one or the other, if that is what you are saying? Would be great to see both in the top 10

Those figures will look minuscule if the answer to whether SPR can be worth 10% of BTC is a yes.  

(One can only dream)

I have a little game to pass the time...  

If you've followed Spreadcoin for longer than 4 months and are still invested, type a reply with +101.

It'll be cool to see how many individuals follow SPR.

I could not be more invested in Spreadcoin since my first post was the translation of the first thread in French ! I've been here since the very beginning and did not sold any coin !

Awesome! All very familiar names I'm sure there are many more.

I really hope georgem is successful in releasing SN's to testnet as it will be a pleasure to test SN's with you guy's!

I tested alot with Darkcoin, spoke with Evan a few times and sent him a couple of debug.log's. Also spent wayyyy to much time testing Spreadcoins 'masternodes' at the time

I literally cannot wait for georgem to announce testnet 

[coins101]

WTF is going on with law suits being threatened if people fork over to Classic?
