Ixcoin TODO

[markm]

Im planning on making a public one with another coin instead of BTC if anyones interested pm me and ill get back to you when ive got the coin working

Vlad, ive been using mark's code he pointed me too but im having trouble with it at some point

The point of using latest bitcoin is it has bugfixes and vulnerability fixes no other coin is fully up to date with.

Including the vulnerability fix they added while i was part-way through doing mergecoin.

Presumably either one of the rejected chuncks was supposed to correct the number of arguments or recent bitcoin has a different number of arguments to that function than older versions such as the one the diff was done against to create the patch had.

part of manually applying the rejected chunks is resolving such things.

Have you applied the rejected chunks that I did not get to apply yet?

Maybe you mgiht grasp the whole thing more clearly if you clone for yourself the latest bitcoin and apply that big multipart main patch file by using the pach program so you see all the rejects and don't have to worry about which ones I already applied and which still await being applied?

I think mark is the real deal but he's got his hands full and on top of that helping other coins would be a conflict of interest.  I think that's why he refuses to help me, even for a bounty which would probably take him 15 minutes to fix.

I' waiting to hear back from a friend: a PhD forensic Computer Scientist but I'm not sure how much programming these guys know.  And bedsides finishing up his PhD studies he's got a huge side project where he's building from the ground up a huge car size tlescope to see on the surfac of mars.  He bought the lens from NAsa.  Not sure where he got the money cause he's a broke student.  Maybe he gets govt grants for research.

But this guy, if he can really program should be able to really help me, but until I actually talk to him I'm still not giving up trying to get the VGB working on my coin and to get my server rot merge mine the coins Mark is talking about.

Mark, if I give you a bounty and full remote access to my server can you set up this merge mine program that you're speaking of?  There's no GPU In these servers so I don't know if its worth it.  Otherwise I have to out an add on Craigslist and I don't want strangers in my house with little kids here and I don't know when the fore sic guy will get back to me since he's so busy.  

And I don't know if forensic scientists can even program all that well.  Anybody know one, an they program really well?  I need a really really good hacker type cause I wanna add great features to my nuggets coin.  It'll probably cost me at least $20 per hour chide I heard he does research for firms and the feds for $300 per hour but since he's friend he's gonna cut me a break. He's young, like 32, but he's a family man and he's a really good guy. So if he has time I'm almost certain he'll help me out but I'm in a rush cause my coin is almost dead.

On the bright side, the posting on my thread (Nuggests) is almost to a dead stop just as I expected.  That's great.  When I go back all the loser trolls should be all gone.

There is nothing to fix. The coder in control of the github already fixed nuggets long ago and has been running it ever since, it seems.

But I thought there was a cut and paste problem and that's why the golden blocks weren't getting any random hits.  You told me this like 3 hours ago or actually yesterday cause I promised to stay off my thread for 2-3 days.  That would be such great news.  Maybe it was a programmer X cause I talked to him and he said when he gets the cable installed he'll tasked a look at it.

If anyone wants a programmer with less skills than mark but more than most here but it's utmost I the growth then Shakezula is the guy.  He'll tell you upfront what he can and can't do, he's utterly honest c. My coin got botched up care it had a new lottery aspect I think and Shakezula list his Internet for a couple days and I misunderstood that to mean he bailed on me.  But I would hire that guy again just based on his honesty and integrity and he is one if the better coders but I don't think he's a full blown programmer like I feel MarkM may be.

Anybody know where I can look to see the current hash rate for nuggets?  I'm curious if its dead yet or how close to is to dying.

open QT, go do window debug, go to console, type 'getmininginfo'

I think it is "programmer Y" who controls the github but I am not sure, maybe it actually is "programmer X" afterall.

The hash rate is shown in the getmininginfo command's output.

Everyone of course needs to compile a new client using the fixed code from the github else they will reject the superblocks / luckyblocks and thus fork onto a broken fork.

Thanks bro, I'll Give it a shot.


If I'm mining with a laptop what para,eters do I put in the windows QT thing to get it mine.   Cause I put 12 and then 44 but left the rest of the spots blank and it doesn't mine.  There's no pool and there's no reason for a password.  Thanks a lot man.


Yesterday you were trashing me along with everyone else now you're being so cool and helpful.  Sorry, that's why I thought you were mocking me when you said good to see you Vlad.  Thanks man, it feel so good to see just one man appreciate at least what I'm trying to do even if I'm failing that it actually literally brings tears to my eyes right now.  I wish I had the money to pay you for this help you've given me.

But I can give you a thank you from the bottom of my heart - man to man.  Thanks, brother.

So is there a fork already I need to download.  Has anybody hit the golden blocks yet?  Has the hs rate started goin back up yet as a result?  TIA

Wait, you know who Y and X are?  Ahahhahahaaa.  Here I was thinning I was protecting them. 

Programmer Y is a more clever kind of a guy unlike programmer X who's actually unbelievably altruistic and shockingly generous and honest.  If programmer X is not a true Chrisitan then he puts to shame 99 % of all Chrostians I know but my guess nobody develops that kind of honesty and generosity without the help of a super-power: God.  It's simply not the best self interest of our species.


So with Programmer Y, although he's legit and cool and I appreciate what he's done I did feel like his was a clever dude so I'd definitely keep an eye out for any pump and pumping.  I'm not trashing anyone and I could be totally wrong and I have no proof and as the guy returrd my coins and kept the little I paid him for his work nut it's just a gut feeling.

But in the end it may be that kind of clever developer that gets this near dead nugget coin to the next level so he may end up doing actually a miracle while in the process looking to Make himself some money. 

[Vlad2Vlad]

Mark, do you know what level of programming skills I can expect from a guy getting his PhD in forensic computer science?  To me to sounds more like so etching the Feds would use to gather info from damaged or deleted hardware so more of a hardware specialist.

I just don't want to pay a nu ch of money to a guy who in the end ,ay leave me worst off then I was before.

Since my wife cut me off I'm stuck selling personal things to lag for the stuff.  She can't stop that - in the end I'm still the man here but I can't Argue with taking savings ,only for what so far is a failed hobbies.  I've already spent $4,000 on BFL ASICS which I haven't seen one yet and it's been nearly 3 months.  Then Ike $1,600 on about 140 domain names.

Now this coin.  So she's had it. And I don't want to sell my devcoins and there's no way, God help me, I'm not selling my ixCoins.

So I need a miracle.  I'm gonna really Need to preay hard for God to help me out financially if this coin deal is from Him and if its not then I'm gonna pray for Him to kill it ASAP.

Remember I badly wanted to go SHA256 and I gave a more than 3 day head up notice and invited all hackers and hater of the coin to easure that if the coin was trash it would be killed fast.  But everyone wanted scrypt.

Had I done what o thought was right and not listened to the miners this coin would have been killed in an hour and I wouldn't be in this humiliating pain right now wasting tons of money, time and the options trying to save a coin because I'm no good at giving up.  And for liste king to everything they said, even telling programmer X to cancel all premine, I get cut down by all of them. No wonder no dev ever created a coin for the miners, they weren't naive like me and new they'd never be happy.

And how did programmer code for 1% premine and only half went through, that's part of what made me think I got played.  And out of just half of the premine 500,000 was given away by programmer X for free as is customary I guess, which I had no problem with.

My problem was I got so much hate and heat for the premine and if I would at least have 4.4 ,Illinois coins, I could do some mad bounties with those nut instead all I have is 1.6 million and out of those a few hundred zk have already been ear marketed for bounties so I'm down to nearly just 1 million.  Given they're not worth anything that pretty much nothing.  But still don't get how it was coded for 1% and only half executed and I wasn't allowed access to my own coins for 2 days - anther weird thing but that was programmer Y not X.  Like I said, I'd keep my eyes on Y, he's clever but he's got moves and he's quick on his feet and he gets stuff done.  He didn't even have to ask and I would have given him More than he expected but I guess nobody expects that.

[Vlad2Vlad]

One more question.  This code looks like C++. Is that right?

What is the best and fastest way for me to lern it to some degree?  Is a book like c++ for dummies the way to go?  Can you recommend anything?   Youtube tutorials?  I know I'll never be a programmer, I'm too old to absorb info like I used to and I lack the interest which is crucial but I want to at least have an idea so Im not si easily stultified by everyone.  Thanks.

Quick question.  Since this is my coin, shodnt I control the github and rope or whatever that was called?  I mean, if programmer Y controls it can't he do things which I can get blamed for later on?

Someone told me there's ways to do insider coin buys without a anyone knowing.  Or how about setting te outsells the golden blocks at the first 60 seconds so you know when to mine and have way better odds of getting them.  It seems like the founder of the coin should be the one with sole access to the coding of that coin and if he's not a programmer it should be SOMENE solely appointed by the founder and in this case I didn't appoint anyone.

So basically someone is playing God with my coin and if things go wrong again like the first time, the programmer is in the clear and I'm the scapegoat again.

This doesn't seem right.  Can a coin founder clarity?  Would you let someone you don't know have full access to your Colin's github, rope (sic) and so on with not having any kind of community I cation of what's going on?

He may be helping me out which is why I'm keeping shut but at the same time it does worry me a bit.  I'm the fall guy once again if just one thing goes  wrong.   And I'm willing to net programmer Y dumped every coin I gave him while I didn't sell a single coin so its clear I'm in. Jagger's for the long run and that's the kind of me talk th you want running the code not someone with a short term mentality.  But what can I do, I have nobody to help me and I can't stop him cause it sounds like he's at least getting the golden blocks to work.

[Vlad2Vlad]

do any of you guys have any knowledge of mergecoin, i have an idea which could promote ixcoin aswell in the process just need some help with my code

I've been trying all week to find a real programmer and can't.  Caution.   Most are self learned coders and cannot program anything serious.

I'd say marK can program but I wouldn't stick my hand in the fire for it.  Good luck.

Implying a self-taught coder can't code. Cunt.

Read my past posts.  I've said self taught coders are some of the best on the planet from my experience but given i took a risk and got burned I can't afford another gamble, so i will now go with a a college guy.

The best talent I've met was in Eastern Europe, 2 16 year olds hacked in NSA, NASA. Etc they both got full pardons and full rides to the US.  One got bailed out by google they paid The FBI's bills to find him of nearly $400,000 so now he works for them but over there and he doesn't get paid jack. 

So self learned hackers are the best on the planet but I can't risk more money when my coin is almost dead.

And lets face it, just like all college programmers - there's programmers and there's progra'mers.  Same with self tight programmers.   Some will shame a guy with a masters while others don't know jack.  Since I don't know code I can't take anymore chances.

If you look at my past codes this is what I've said so you have to be careful in here cause not all coders are great but you will find some that are as good as college grads but I don't have the time and money to find out.

I'm not entirely sure what you've done since this is the ixcoin thread and you seem to be talking about some other coin without any links to what that coin is. It sounds like you got someone to create a coin for you and they've got control of it due to the source repository being controlled by them? If so, not much you can do. I hope you didn't pay them any money. If you want to 'found' a coin you really need to control the canonical repository, website and announcement thread/forum for it yourself. If you hire a programer to work on it don't give them access to the core repository. Take pull requests or patches for the changes they're making, sanity check them, then apply them yourself.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Mark,

Urgent question.  I'm meeting that PhD forensic computer scientist  tomorrow.

He's extremely busy so I may have 15 minutes to sell him on my coin.

What key things do I need to tell him.  What key things, features do I need for my coin so its no longer a crap coin.  You hate crap coins and so do I, so help me get rid of one crisp coin and maybe in the process get some real innovation, and I'll pay for it all since it's my mess.  

What features should I ask him for to see if he's any good, to test his knowledge and skills?  Is all this code C++ or what other code is necessary for the coin I mean?


What immediate things does this coin need right away to make it a serious not so much crap coin?

And finally, he's gonna wanna see some kind of code and I don't know what to show him.

Can you give me the links to what a programmer Y is working on - the code which shows my coin so he can see what's going on and and if its something he can do something for me at a glance?

Please help me with just this as it may help turn a crap coin into a real coin with some new innovation.  I was dead serious when i said I wanted a real coin and not some get rich quick crapcoin.

The bad thing is that he thinks these alt coins are get rich quick scams so that's why I need something visual of my code so he can see I'm trying to do something real.  If he can really program well we can have this kind of guy on this forum.

How many PhD forensic Scientists are worming on alt coins.  If I can sell him on alt coins being the future my coin is not the only one that can benefit.  This guy can bring a whole different perspective to alt coins, the kid of skill that. Ogles here can afford.  This guy does contract work like a mercenary for the Feds, NASA, and anybody who can afford $300 per hour.  This is a huge break so please prepare a list of questions and things this coins needs to be a real coin and I'll show it to him and if he says he can do it ill pay him even $2.000 to do it.  At. $20 per hour that buys me 100 hours of coding. A pro can probably code 5 top grade features in that amount of time.  I think.

I just don't want to meet with him and tell him:  huh, I launched a clone shit coin like bitcoin and it failed can you fix it?  He'll just laugh at me cause he things all these e coins are scams.  I feel I can sell him and get him to do work for us but I need help Cause I don't know what to ask cause I don't know the language or what needs to be done.  Imagine a guy like this doing work for devcoin or any other coin.  It's hard to get there goes of guys to come to work for us at this point cause alt coins are seen as a joke and PhD guys like to keep their reputations made or gold.  Even if he helps me he'll probably say don't ever mention my name.  Lol.

So please help me out cause I'm meeting him tomorrow around noon.  Thanks.

I paid them, it's my coin.

But they have access to the repo files.  I thought that was normal.  So thy hijacked my coin?

How do I get ,y coin back them?  There sayin they're helping me but I think programmer at is stealing my coin.  But if he's not I can't accuse him of it since nobody else is helping me.  How do I get control back of my coin?

Somebody please help.

[Vlad2Vlad]

I can't believe what happens ing to be again.  He's, nuggets is my coin i paid for it and I paid for all the bounties.  Nobody helped me with a single dime.  They just mock and laugh.

I want to think programmer Y is helping me but I have a bad feeling he's doing something to get rich which while destroying the coin or taking full control of it and stealing it from me.   I don't know what to do cause if he's not trying to steal it maybe he's helping me and I don't want to chase the on,y guy away but if he's helping me why is he doing it secretly why isn't be communicating with me.  Once a gain, this is fishy and this is why I accused them last time of funny business.

Legally I paid for that coin, its mine, they can't take it away.

It doesn't mean they hijacked the coin, it just means they could. If they're implementing what you want, and doing what you want, then there's no hijack. What exactly are they doing that you're not happy with?
