Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history)

Hey all,

Attempting to get to the site to download the newest wallet.

https://anoncoin.net

It appears to be down.  Anyone have word on this?

Hm yea, site seemed to be down a bit right after I got to sleep. Seems like it was network problems, I'm checking logs now. Anyway site is back.

[meeh]

trying a TOR setup since I use it occasionally. Should I run tor when i run the wallet?

*UPDATE*
Got it working with TOR =P

Great to hear it worked out

Hey guys - need some help here?

I withdrew some from Cryptsy.

Here is my address:
AY214rQUkYDjd6MUBit5MDBxDJHn6cse3e

Here is the TrXID:
c9d9e0918d5c441be0522586ce168483e9e56c2c906bda61959525ec3f9cdb6b

Yet, my wallet shows nothing. I have 15 active connections and it says up to date ?

[okashira]

Thanks. I put in a ticket 3 hr ago. Will update.

Now, you can buy human hair extensions for your wife or you ladies with Anoncoin on:

This should cause a *major* jump in ANC value!!!

But seriously, get ANC/Zerocoin working and ANC will pump itself up just for its utility.

Noob questions and help, please.

I thought ZeroCoin was not due for release until ~May. Is AnonCoin using some of the code or principles from ZeroCoin?

Will AnonCoin be better or about even with DarkCoin?

ETA on ANC/Zerocoin stable release?

If you read through this thread, meeh's blog (link in this thread), anoncoin subreddit and @anoncoinproject on twitter I think you get good answers for all your questions.

I am confident that Anoncoin will be superior to darkcoin, zerocash and others.

The devs are really competent and their motive for being involved in this project seems to be different compared to the competition. The Anoncoin project is about  creating a truly anonymous currency.

Most coins purpose is to enrich the devs/early adopters. First you got the instamine/premine, then hype and then dumping. To start a new coin is easy and if the coin dont get the attention they need to make money, the devs just leave it and come up with a new idea/consept.

You should also compare Anoncoin and darkcoin distribution. Anoncoin block size is 5 coins and it will be 5 coins for 2 whole years before the block reward halves. Anoncoin have been around for 9 months and proven itself many times over. Darkcoin is 50 days old and started out with a block size of 500 coins and the block size is now only 20 coins.

This really Sucks because i was one of the very first people mining this from launch and now i have nothing to hold.  Please advise ?

still nothing changed. Did fix the error i was getting but now all i see in the client is a locked wallet with no coins

[BitcoinSniper]

i have tried everything . Seeing how i was one of the first miners on this and my wallet contained some of the first coins minted . I am thinking something strange has happend to the chain. My coins are not even coming up. Not really keeping up with the updates but has something happend to make my coins not show up on the network

@BitcoinSniper, 
this is not bitcoin,
Anoncoin have no problems,
everything will be ok, just listen our people who can help you.

[majorminers]

ANC has great price action on Cryptsy in the last 24 hours. This could be poised for a breakout.

i mined some of the very first blocks from ANONcoin chain but my coins wont show up on today. My only question is . Has this been hard forked and now my coins from original launch become usless

does this show any transactions?

Code:

anoncoind listtransactions

are you using winblows?
are you willing to share the wallet for manual repair/inspection?

If suggestions above don't work, please try a tool like pywallet to extract your private keys, and import them to a new one. (Backup is important here)

If you run it with --otherversion=23 you should get your keys listed. I hope this works out for you!

I think we will see 0.1 - 0.15 per BTC after the devs completed Zerocoin implementation and announced.

Any TOR nodes guys? I have 1 connection that slips away before syncing =/

Any TOR nodes guys? I have 1 connection that slips away before syncing =/

There should be at least be five nodes who I run in Tor/I2P/clearnet node who has .onion addresses. If you fail to connect to internal onion addresses your client should choose public ip's via your Tor connection. One reason you can't connect to them is if the "max connections" are reached by the current nodes, I will try setup more nodes.
