Is anyone encountered this recently?  "Error: The transaction was rejected.  This might happen if some of the coins in your wallet were already spent, such as if you used a copy of wallet.dat and coins were spent in the copy but not marked as spent here."

I was mining casinocoins CSC and when I tried to transfer them to an exchange I received that message.

The coins were taken from my wallet and I can see the transaction here (http://casinocoin.mooo.com/tx/f9f03a686d7ddcdb0671fc64d552fcdcde5714a011e9a8906ebb42c8d9beccce#i312) but not ending up at the destination.  I waited 4 hours and tried again, but same message popped up and again no coins.

I googled the quote and tried to rescan my wallet but didn't seem to do anything.

Any advice?  Still a newbie or would have posted in the casino coin section.

Hi people. Help me please.
Here I can get some free TRC http://www.terracointalk.org/index.php/topic,638.msg2812.html#new
Where can I find information about new shop and services with alt-currencies?

At the altcoins subforum or at the community sites/forums of each alt currency that you want to check.

Thanks, now I see a subforum. But it's hard to search there, so much rubbish  May be much better if we have a list with all alt-coin shops. It's a good opportunity to earn some money, filling their forums with such shops.

[articminer]

Great thank you for the info.  These new Alts are very interesting.

[NeonMeadow]

Hi, I'm a newbie, wondering what the general consensus is on cloud mining.  What are the reputable sites for this?  I was thinking of opening an account at Cex.io, but it's hard to find out what their reputation is.  Is there a good place to look for reviews?  Forgive me if this is a duplicate question from another thread, haven't looked around that much, but I see I need to post something to be able to participate here.  Thanks!

[gminerph]

Ive been mining goldcoin lately.  Its a very good alt coin to get into

[PLACAPLACA]

Hi, I am newbie
What alt coins are mined by CPU?
I am interested only in CPU mining.

Thanks.

[Don007]

Applecoin and Yacoin that I know of. Maybe Quark.

But you won't really reach high hashrates with a CPU..

Altcoins are everybody dream of getting a Lambo like Goat did , but with some xcoin that they have mined while chatting on facebook.

True that. It is kind of discouraging when you can only mine .00001 of a bitcoin. Mining a whole Litecoin or something is much more satisfying.

Absolutely. And if you're starting with a cpuminer or small gpu, the transaction fees can really take a bite. Smaller value coins automatically have smaller fees - or at least you can cash out quicker and feel like you're accomplishing something, even if it's in millipennies.

I feel that you also make more if you can save those Alt-Coins, you never know when they might have a huge hit.

I couldn't agree more. My strategy is to mine a little of this, and a little of that and just sit on them for a while to see where the value goes. It took BTC nearly 4 years to get anywhere. However, now that the general public is fully aware of altcoins, and BTC is becoming played out for the average home user that doesn't have ASIC multiple-thousand dollar rigs, I think thats all the better and altcoins will flourish that much quicker because more people can actually get coins instead of just those with ASIC miners.

That is communist propaganda , sorry for it.
You say that if you build a bicycle  in your garden those are better than a mercedes because you can't build one , but only people with lots of money can?

It's the utility that counts , and already shops have problems with one coin , just thinking about accepting more that one is a nightmare.

Also , is a coin becomes popular , miners will switch to it and make mining it less attractive.
If LTC hits 200 , you're going to see scrypt asics flooding the market.

The way you post this , looks like altcoins cam make everybody rich , you know how that sounds?

Multi-coin payment accepter services are going to become super popular.  People should be able to pay for things they want with anything that has value.  Collected shells, old Nike tennis shoes, and cryptocurrencies.
