lol, I saw that.  Looks like Mt Gox had something to do with it.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Whoever is doing this also really likes i0Coin.

We haven't heard from Luke for almost a week.  Anybody have any updates? 

Thanks.

I see Ixcoin has been listed on C-Cex:  https://c-cex.com/index.html?p=ixc-btc

Yes,  that's 3 exchanges.  Vircurex, Cryptsy and C-CEX.  CEX.IO I heard rumors that they will have something soon.

The problem though with IXC is the liqudity?  Where are the buyers and sellers?!  Say I wanted to buy 1% of IXC,  200,000 IXC... I can't find anyone selling that much anywhere.  Same with selling,  say I want to sell 200,000 IXC... I can't find that many buyers.

What's going on?  It is as if out of the 18 million IXC out there,  only less than 300,000 IXC is traded in exchanges!

Scarcity.

When the big flood of investors start seeing IX, the prices are going to skyrocket because there is such a low amount of supply.


Expect big big things from IX in the coming months

That's a good point but if this coin is such a dud, why isn't anyone selling it?  I don't think you see this same issue with similar coins like i0Coin and others.  Cause 18 million coins is way too much to be hoarded unless the ones hoarding have some kind of plan.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Luke is active behind the scenes. 

I like.

He's added a new twitter account:  _iXcoin.

I still can't believe we can't get the dot org site back or the iXcoin twitter account from Thomas.  Can the guy be that selfish to not give those up?

Smart Money

iX is very much alive behind the scenes. The major share holders are watching and waiting for the day. Because slowly as more people want to invest into a few hundred IX a few more will get taken off the markets. Pretty soon you are left with scraps, at the point were ix can't support the amount of smart money and just takes off from there.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Here's an interesting point.  We have only 20 total votes for this very important IXC poll. 

So how did we go from 20 to well over 100 in just 2 weeks?

Bizarre!

Hey guys, ixcoin just added to CryptOTC

How old and large is cryptootc?  Cause I've never heard of it.

Well, it's great news.  So is that 4 markets now?

[Vlad2Vlad]

Anybody have any ideas why i0Coin was so unstable and even died when it was simply an exact clone of IXC?  The only difference was that it had no premine.  Isn't that right?  So why has IXC been so incredibly stable, with no forking and never dying while i0Coin had so many problems.

The block rate of i0coin was I think 4 times that of iXcoin and bitcoin.  So the implementation did consume a lot of memory and crashed a lot.

iXcoin is just like Bitcoin, Namecoin and DVC,  so all of them play quite well in merge mine situations. 

In general, the only way to get into a major merge mining pool is to be as conservative and non-disruptive as possible.  IXC is like that,  it does not cause problems for pools.  i0coin takes a considerable risk so that's why it is not in the same pools as IXC.

The danger of these new exchanges is that, you never know if they will close and therefore take all your deposits with them.

Oh, interesting point.  I didn't think of that. 

People should use Cryptsy then until these new exchanges prove themselves or buy your coins and transfer them to a cold wallet.

[Vlad2Vlad]

We haven't heard from Luke in a week.  Come on, Luke, chime in.

BTW, looks like IXC hit a solid and stable 12 peta hash of mining power.  I'm updating my signature line.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Friction,

What's going on with the client update?  I thought it was completed last month and just needed testing.

I'm having numerous people ask me about it and I don't have a clear answer.

Here's a tweet I just got; if you could clarify I'd appreciate it as it seems quite a few people are having issues.  Thanks.


@Vlad_Roberto I own coins sitting at exchanges. The client won't dl blockchain. I had posted to that 100+ page thread a while ago looking for nodes but no one seems to have any. I was going to just let the coins sit at the exchanges until your new client comes out. Have you updated the source code ? If so i can build my own client but will still need addnodes to add to conf file so i can get the blockchain.

They have to go to www.ixcoin.co and use the addnodes that are listed over there.  This has been tested to work fine.   By default, the client will not find any peers.  Tell him to head over to www.ixcoin.co for the info.
