[ANN] [ETC] Ethereum Classic: Immutable Smart Contracts

[manotroll]

The wallet etc will not receive updates?
I stayed a while without opening and did not want to connect I had to delete the chaindata folder
Now you're downloading everything again

How large is the ETC blockchain right now and how much larger does it grow on a month by month basis? I would like to invest in this long term but I fear that the blockchain size might the ETC's biggest limitation to making it scalable.

On the topic of monetary policy, is capping of the total no. of coins mined implemented already?

Thats a very good question the block chain for ETC and ETH is so big its a pain in the ass to use a real wallet and what's ETH going to do when pos kicks in because myself and most ppl cant get the mist wallet to sync especially on windows

Can't read anywher about the Dapps that should be produced on the ETC chain?

All I see is promises about long term bulltrend and so on, and the Etherum Classic trust fund of Barry, will be a $150 million dollar investment fund. Barry have previous success in a BTC investment fund, so ETC could definetly enjoy this and it could be a game changer.

However, the price didn't pump because of this news.

Chandler Guo and Barry Sillbert sure do have something they are working on that they have not put on twitter. So for anyone reading this, Yes, I do recomend buying ETC! It will probably go to a new ATH soon this year, maybe in a few months, quote me if I Am wrong.

ETC have all the advantages infront of ETH. Listed by many exchanges, liked by the guys in china, trading volume stable, network hashrate growing everyday (more people switch over to mine ETC as its more profitable), investment trust fund etc...

18 days I synced the blockchain with ethereum wallet 0.9.1, now it doesn't connect to any nodes anymore, I deleted the blockchain, then nodes and nothing, simply cannot see any nodes anymore. Is that wallet client dead ? Do I need to switch to jaxx if I don't want a browser wallet ?

[ccminer.net]

Quick question:

ETC will switch to POS? If so when and how?
thx

[manotroll]

Is it not possible to direct where the wallet saves the data?

Everything goes to drive C and this is bad as it spends unneeded space on my ssd
Would it be possible to implement this both in the portfolio etc as eth?

Both Ethereum classic and Ethereum fork do not have the critical mass of users that bitcoin has yet but both networks have blockchains that are so large it would be hard for it to become decentralized. How much does it cost to run an Ethereum node these days?

I downloaded parity, used parity --geth it downloaded the whole blockchain in less than 3minutes but my account is empty, the wallet address is correct but it shows 0 eth. I moved the UTC wallet file from appdata\roaming\ethereum\keystore folder to parity\keys. Why can't it see the balance ?

edit: use --chain=classic to be on the correct chain.

run

wait.. 12GB download

If the ETC community would like a high speed low latency node hosted, i am able to host a supernode for ETC for 0.2 BTC / year see here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1766796.0 for my node hosting service. If any in the ETC community are interested, drop me a line! I hold some ETC.

With parity it's 3GB only.

Why only 3GB? Did the development team of ETC did some blockchain pruning? That is a big difference from the real size of the blockchain which would be over 30GB by now. Everytime I ask how big the blockchain is no one gives me a straight answer. The supporters of this project maybe trying to avoid the seriousness of the issue.

It shows full balance with 3GB blockchain, I used parity with --warp, maybe it's that.

40G....(( hole size of blockchain ))

[pwpwpw]

40GB, that is vastly inflated with spam transactions that are fixed once you redownload the whole chain.

For the investors who will put the money on ethereum classic, please read this article maybe there are good information can be taken from there.

ETC ready for breakout? What do you think guys 

I think so yes slowly differentiating from ETC and some dev weight now - so watch this space IMO

[brigabriela470]

ETC ready for breakout? What do you think guys 

nothing is made in this universe for forever so its  not need to worry about its breaking point of view.
