[ANN] 42-coin Development Discussion Thread

[cryptocommoner]

I have been doing more homework on this coin simply because it fascinates me.  The coin is very similar to BTC with the added PoS aspect.  One thing that stuck out to me when I was doing some more homework is that this coin is divisible by 14 compared to BTC's 8.

I was directed toward this link: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/20635/what-is-42coin-why-it-is-highly-priced

specifically, this comment:

@vi.su. Er, no: 42*10^14 / 21*10^6*10^8 = 2 in my good ol' rusty calculator. So total amount of 42coin's lowest denomination pieces (what would be a good word for it? babelfishies??) is exactly double that of bitcoin's lower denomination

So, basically, 42 is double to total supply according to this comment (and my own math).  I think that people would get more on board with this project if people understood this.  BTC is purely PoW and half the total supply of 'sats' compared to 'babelfishies'.  I am clearly not sure what to call it.

BTC total supply is: 21,000,000 to the 8th decimal is 2,100,000,000,000,000 sats.

42-coin total supply: 42 to the 14th decimal is 4,200,000,000,000,000 [to be determined]

I see the roadmap has testing with this thread linked: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2480007.0

Can you update us on the status of this test that's been going on for over 6 months.  I see it is being traded on coinscontrol exchange (infrequently), but cannot really find much other information regarding the coin or its current utility.

42 always had the same 8 digit precision as BTC:

This is a sponsor's project, developing independently. Currently, there is no much success there due to some unresolved difficulties related to the direct use of cryptocurrencies in business.

Welp... open mouth, insert foot 

Looking into the history I imagine must be limited to when this ANN thread was started.  I'm sorry for the misinformation posted. 

Also, thanks for the update on the sponsored project.  I hope the difficulties get resolved.

Thanks for your patience, Than-Ioan. I also am still gaining a clear insight into 42's specs, but I'm happy to puddle along in the meantime. The Telegram channel is getting a little volume.

And Nova Exchange? Heck, I don't know. But am still regularly checking for news there.

Whoa! We might not get the 42 Bar and Cafe in Melbourne, Australia, to accept 42-coin, but the owner already holds Bitcoin, Litecoinm and Ethereum!

[cryptocommoner]

Just to enlighten some people that may not know (I didn't) that 42-coin's lowest unit of value has a name.  Instead of satoshis (like BTC) they are dents!  http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/Arthur_Dent

I learned this from the 42-coin discussion telegram group

[IMZ]

https://www.facebook.com/42cafebar/

I've spoken to the owner about accept Forty Two. We'll have to provide energetic help -- and I guess we'd suggest that they accept a range of currencies. (The owner already holds Bitcoin, Ether, and Litecoin.)

Could a couple of folks post short messages on their media?

[Than-Ioan]

BTC is rising again! Let's hope the same for 42!

How do u know? He may have more money than u but dont wish to disclose his finances to strangers on the internet forums. If u wanna know how much money he has

[IMZ]

The Telegram group is rather quiet, but our volume is okay.

There's no two ways about it all: cryptos are still 'working through' the backlash of the 2017 spike. Bitcoin rose well above $9000 the other day, and will (IMHO) probably creep up to ten thousand quite soon; but the energy that drove cryptos last year will take some time yet to return in force. Patience, us!
