If you are playing around with themes on windows, we just put up a new binary for download that fixes a bug with images not being displayed correctly:

Contest for the best Anoncoin Qt wallet themes

The Anoncoin Qt wallet now has the capability to choose among several different themes that change the look and feel of the wallet. We have created three test themes to demonstrate how this works, and here we are announcing a contest for the best three community-contributed themes that we will bundle with our next release.

Given the history of anoncoin, we are specifically interested in the following three themes:

1. Anoncoin - A theme that is based on the retro minimal branding as found on our current web site.
2. Anonymous - A theme that exemplifies the ideals of the group Anonymous.
3. I2P - A theme that is based on the branding of the I2P network.

For each theme that we select, we will pay a bounty of 100 ANC (or more, if we receive more contributions to our donation address). Honorable mentions that are not selected will be posted for download on our web site.

In order to use themes, you will need to either compile the "develop-themes" branch on github, or download one of the developer builds from our web site (at this point, only OSX and win64 developer builds are available). Next, you will need to copy the themes folder (found in share/qt) to your Anoncoin data directory. To create your own theme, simply create a new folder in the themes folder, and create a style.qss file that is based on one of the examples. To select the theme, go to Preferences > Display, choose the theme from the drop down menu, and click OK.

If you would like to see more bounties likes this, please donate to the Anoncoin donation address.

Awesome news keep up the great work!!

Oh fuck, trolls are gone - means Anc is in trouble.

No, they are just in rehab after the BCT downtime...

[jolskeboll]

Well, the guy that bought that sell wall at 5kSAT for around 12BTC will probably want to trigger the price quite a bit yet, so let's just help him out

[SmokingSkull]

That price is being pushed up until the update, then it falls like a stone again - as said in previous comments.

When is this update coming? The wiki says that almost everything is finished 
I thought GroundRod was already done by now.

High trading volume in China over the past 24 hours:

I find this interesting. Perhaps the community should look more closely at btc38 as a potential primary exchange for ANC.

Cryptsy has given ANC a lot of problems for a long time

True, looks like someone really wants to get their hands on this coin. Maybe they in China realized the potential

[fuckbuddy]

Thanks for the pump, guys. I took good profits

Great. Trolls and fudsters are coming back, I was worried that Anc was in real trouble during the period of their short absence. A coin without trolls is a coin in decline.

[SmokingSkull]

The price does not give even one f*** about trolls or forum activity.
Or even when there is a new update.

It's a random walk ...

There is no system behind it, as seen the past week.

There is no system behind it, as seen the past week.

random walk theory is a fantasy, price movement follow certain rules of supply and demand. if it was random walk one day price for an asset would be a million dollars, next day zero and on day three a trillion it could be any price at any moment in time. But this is not the case. Just look at price chart and you will see more or less repetative patterns. The more liquid market the more pronounced is this phenomenon generally.

If you want to explain random walk theory then explain it right.

It's not entirely true that random walk means "one day price for an asset would be one million dollars, next day zero"
Random walk is much more than that.

We people want to believe that there is a pattern for prices, even in this sucky Alternative-Coin-Market. You can explain a price rise and you can explain a falling price... but it's just an explanation you believe is correct.

Well ok altcoin is not a liquid market. But generally speaking there is an entire industry that uses purely statistical models to beat the market, and some of them do it by far and consistently. They could not do this if the price action was random. How can they build winning algorithms under such conditions? Hope I did not misunderstand you.

For those of you who use Anoncoin with I2P

In our new client v0.9.6.1 (which is now being tested on our testnet), we have made some changes to how I2P peers are treated. In particular, your I2P address will only be advertised to others if you are using a static I2P address. Dynamic I2P addresses will still work fine, but they will not be shared across the anoncoin network, as they become obsolete as soon as you shut down your client.

So... if you use Anoncoin with I2P, can you please choose to use a static I2P address, as opposed to a dynamic one? This will help strengthen the network. With our old v0.8 clients, you just need to put

Code:

mydestination=xxxxx

in your anoncoin.conf file. For our newer developer builds, you can find instructions on what to do here: https://wiki.anoncoin.net/Sample_anoncoin.conf

What's up with anonmining.com?? I had been mining there for a while and had about 5 ANC in my account that I hadn't withdrawn yet. Haven't checked to see if they paid out before disappearing, this is just them having forgotten to pay for their domain, or if they ran off with whatever was there?

[imbladednow]

lol " a coin without trolls is a coin in decline"  didn't marcus aurelius say that?

[lunokhod2]

My clearnet wallet has not been updating for the last 3 days and has been displaying the following:

Warning: Displayed transactions may not be correct! You may need to upgrade, or other nodes may need to upgrade.

What to do?

P.S  I am a noob ....... so please go slow while explaining......

Thanks in advance...

you said it yourself, your only using clearnet!
use I2P.
windows build are old and lack the DNSSeed.

Thank you for your response.

You can also run Anoncoin through Tor. This will allow you to connect to additional Tor hidden servers that are not accessible from a normal clearnet connection. Instructions on how to do so can be found here: https://wiki.anoncoin.net/How_to_setup_Anoncoin_to_use_Tor
