[ANN] [SPEC] SPEC - SCRYPT -/- CRYPTOWATCHER -/- DEDICATED SERVICE DEVELOPERS

Looks like this will be the worst loss i made ever, just holding,
because its worth nothing anyway,
but i can't see any trick to change that course, given the coin amount, and, and ....
I didn't look close enough, my own fault, arghh stupid me ...

But who knows ...
Maybe i am panicking for nothing
(possible)
SURPRISE ME!

I hear Ya, I was little tipsy when it hit cryptsy.
I bought half a mill around 80, Buy I'm not bovard, I just took the price off my widjet so I didnt have to look at it at 11 sats.
Now just buying another 1.5 mill now to average it out at very least it will be PnD a few times even if Dev's don't deliver..

Otherwise nice looking coin, it takes balls to go up against Wisdom's dominance in this area.   

Yeah same me, bought 4 another BTC at 70sat, if it would not get there again its just plain my fault one look at total coins would have made me trade much wiser. But as you sayd the total amount of coins goes against every present knowledge and i am quite looking forward the outcome. The DEV / TEAM seems to make a good job (dev: if you need a website, talk to me, look at http://www.europecoin.eu.org as a reference) I think if you entered below 20 sat you will have a much greater party, thanks for reminding me to buy some more to outsmart my noobtrades-

Just a quick update. We will have a themeless SPECTRA preview soon. We are about to move it to a more powerful server in order to test for multiple coin formats.

Themeless!  

I'm not a great designer but I've got quite a few hours into the default CSS just to achieve a generic but functional look. Designers will understand how that goes for sure. But I'm going to change the name from "Default" to "Themeless" now!

Seriously though, with that groundwork in place I hope some of you guys will be able to do great looking styles for this.

Architecturally, I've built in some text file inclusions so that non-coders don't have to get into the script code to adjust the headers and footers to suit, adding other elements around the 'working' bits will be pretty simple, as the page scripts invoke the block explorer functionality in, well, blocks for the most part.

And for those that will want to get into the guts of it and I've got a pretty good separation between the functional and presentation layers. All of the rendering code is centralized so you don't have to go hunting through every file in the package to find the parts you want to change.

I did a massive cleanup and re-factor this week and cut the size of the code base by over 50%, which just means 50% less places for bugs to hide. It's all very procedural and loaded with comments (can you have too many comments?) so hopefully everyone who is interested will be able to follow the code and do what they like with it. One thing about open source is you can't please everyone, but I hope in the end this tool will be seeing plenty of use, and fill a large gap in the current open source tool set.

I'm currently trying to load a HBN block chain into a SPECTRA database. 2.5m blocks of POS/POW hybrid block chain.  It's a bear, but since a couple of initial issues have been addressed things seem to be going smoothly, if not quickly.  

SPECTRA is working great with SPEC (basic POW only) and if it does well with a POW/POS hybrid (HBN) it should be fine with a fully POS chain as well I think. Soon it will be ready for a first release, and we'll see what kind of bugs other people can find with it. I'm sure there are a wealth of surprises waiting in the many available block chains.

I'm working on installation documents as well.  Ehh, well, I'm on the forum, 'cause who doesn't love writing documentation, am I right?

It's to the point where getting additional eyes on it is exactly what it needs. HBN is taking forever (it looks like it will literally take several days to load) so maybe we'll see about letting you guys have a look at the development server before that's fully loaded.

Updates Soon!

Looking forward to see the first release of the SPEC team

Can't wait to see SpecStream in action, also the website is amazing, congratulations

Heya

Just FYI that we're mining SPEC on our multipool: www.xpool.ca and scrypt miners have the option to keep their SPEC just by entering their SPEC address in their user settings. It is a minable coin only and not a converted payout coin. Custom KNC Titan port also available.

Cheers!

Hmmm   Had a bunch of SPEC but liquidated early.  I Might jump back in though...are there any reasons why I shouldn't?  Any reasons why I should?

I'm making arrangements for beta release of SPECTRA as I type.

Not sure if that will affect your decision

hy guys hope you'll break some news soon its been a while coin is stalling at a low price, wish you would had enabled POS as i requested earlier

New to mining in general and just took a shot at spec coin.  I am on SuprNova.cc (great pool btw)

I am just curious how this type of pool works when I see 3 unconfirmed spec coins.  How long will it generally take to confirm them so that I can withdraw?

Might take a few hours. It depends on how the chain is moving. The chain needs X amount of confirmations. Be patient it will confirm. Good luck btw.

Agree, this coins needs to be PoS. I hope SPEC team is seriously considering this.

Other than that, great project.

Good luck.

I can't speak to the POS question, I only work on one part of the project, and SPECTRA will be having it's first release soon.

There are some dev installs here: http://dev.speccoin.com/

I'm still doing some testing with a couple of those chains but you're welcome to have a look.

cool combinations most of the elements included are required for any coin, hope after this i dont need my custom excel sheets and all API collections:) waiting for the source code to experiment few things at my own

going to make some buzz about the demo

Anyone else noticing the difficulty in actually finding blocks? The chain has been hanging alot in the last week.

there are quite "some" clients online, so i assume some testing going on, though  my understanding
says the chain should move because there are clients regardless of someone testing whatever, but it could be a matter of size or of
lack of my knowledge. Dev?  Could you educate us? I am sure this coin has a high percentage on technical interested users.

Actually as above I think they burned 300m of premine.
