..
What needs to be done to "maintain that list"? If its hosting said files and editing them from time to time, i'm up for it. If that's not what has to be done, please tell us more about it.

You and K1773R both agreed to do it. Thank you both for offering. Looking over the last account file with the ongoing list in it:
https://github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/blob/master/account_73.csv

I see that K1773R already has an administrator position, and you don't. In general, I want the administrative functions to be spread out, so that if an administrator leaves only one or two duties are dropped at a time, rather than a few at a time. So I prefer that you do it. However, it's up to you and K1773R, if you both decide that K1773R should do it that's fine with me. Please contact K1773R and decide between you who should take the position.

K1773R says that he agrees to let me take care of this duty.

Since there were no objections to funding more projects, I asked our share administrator Qtera to get more addresses.

Some public btc donation addresses arent owned by said party, instead of a company/service (bitpay) for example. As they dont have the private key for said address, they can never get their devcoins.

Because we don't know if projects own their addresses, I asked Qtera to ask them on their forums if they own their address. If anyone knows that a project owns its address, please tell Qtera.

I thought devtome was a stepping stone and/or to be one element of many.
The problem is 'writers' became more numerous than devs, yet most is garbage in terms of broad utility (I'm not a dev, have written so maybe garbage includes me).

Devcoin started by funding software developers, then devtome was made. Most of those software developers ignored devcoin, as far as I know only develCuy and Emfox came to devcoin from software funding. Most administrators came from writers, because there were far more interested writers.

Devtome was supposed to make money from advertising, which would of payed for other projects, but the advertising revenues turned out to be insignificant. I expected advertisers to pay for many ads on devtome because there was so much content, but I was wrong.

I previously outlined issues with Devtome and pricing. Advertising was never likely to impact that dynamic, successful or otherwise.
But I think we all made errors in assumptions and/or mechanics.

Should we a platform specific in using DevCoin by offer many services around it?

[theuploader]

I like this idea but wouldn't it still cost money to set up? I think like mentioned before it is a problem that the coins are just received and then sold immediately. I think the biggest problem with devcoin is that there really is not a ton of people accepting the coins.

I still have my devcoin auction site for bidding style auctions code somewhere if you wanna buy it. That was always the idea. Use the block rewards to fund things to sell on the auction site and use the profits to buy up devcoin on market. Lots of people around here didnt understand but im sure they do now. I think i had put it at 10 btc for my work which is fair I spent 6 months on it but community didnt really help out in terms of adoption at the time.

Hello DEV team,

I'm happy to announce that your coin has been listed to ItalYiiMP 2.0 for mining,

to get paid in DVC just set c=DVC as password in your configuration.

As an additional service, the explorer is available at the address http://italyiimp.com/explorer

visit http://italyiimp.com.

best regards.

Ragarg.

[Wekkel]

Good work.

Do I understand correctly from this that the concept of merged mining is a thing of the past?

[develCuy]

Supercool! Congrats for betting on Devcoin!

coingather.com has been down a few days, they are silent on twitter 

[wiser]

coingather.com has been down a few days, they are silent on twitter 

Thanks for the heads up. That is not a good sign when a site goes down with no explanation. It's especially rough on those who have standing market orders (read, funds held on the exchange).

One practice I do (mostly) is that when I want to trade coins and I'm getting ready to send them to the exchange, I first log in to the exchange and check the deposit address. It's not that I can't have my wallets "remember" various exchanges' deposit addresses. It's that before I send in a bunch more coins I want to make sure the exchange is still there.

A wise move wiser...

nope not as far as know
bastards at coingather definitely done a runner by the look
https://news.bitcoin.com/coingather-exchange-has-been-offline-for-days-and-no-one-knows-why/

lost some devcoin and 1 ltc

look in comments, many others lost a LOT

a ton of devcoin was on that exchange and will be dumped cheap when we get a new exchange, which is good news i guess!
or may be gone forever

we really need donate buttons and some bounty lists rather than just huge amounts going to soo-so writers on the wiki etc
there are tens of millions of bloggers, online publishers, musicians etc on the web
more
devcoin in many ways is far better designed and more appropriate than btc and enough coins without silly amounts like ripple which is the ultimate shitcoin

few tools like donate button that works or better still that widget to pay, devcoin used to be on is it coiningy or something? they removed but think devcoin paid to be on there

as soon as such huge amounts stop being given to these average posters etc, you could list a fund like 50k devcoin to first mainstream publisher to accept, 50k to big blogger, 50k (or smaller amounts) to first registered charity to accept and so on, do it for a month


whats the good news?

[Guido]

most exchanges you have to pay to get listed on, but don't think so with livecoin

Fastcoin is on livecoin and they seem pretty good and there's a usd market for fst and others
this would be great for devcoin

developer has to apply

We need exchanges that list devcoin. Could someone please volunteer to get exchanges to list devcoin, doing whatever application is necessary and giving them whatever help they need?

[FuzzyBear]

So the requirements for a listing of devcoin on their site is as follows:

########################################################

If you are a developer or official representative of cryptocurrency asset, you can add this asset to Livecoin. We offer a few options to list a new asset, please contact us via email .

Don't forget to provide the following when you request listing:
1) link to an official git of your node
2) link to an official website
3) link to block chain which must working properly
4) name of asset and trading symbol

By applying a request to add an asset to Livecoin, you as developer agree to report of technical issues with your cryptocurrency, node, block explorer etc. You also agree to notify us of all kind of forks. In case of losing clients' funds due to forks or technical / security issues with block chain or node, you as developer will bear financial responsibility.

Timeline for listing of new asset depends on agreements reached. The shortest term is 1 week.

########################################################

So it seems the person requesting the listing takes responsibility for the code and blockchain.. prob just a legal cover themselves but from the community side should be presented from the lead developer of devcoin or someone willing to take on that role?  

answers to the questions would be as follows? please feel free to correct or update:

1) https://github.com/coinzen/devcoin ??
2) http://devcoin.org/
3) https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dvc/
4) Devcoin (DVC)

Regarding official repo... I have a fork of the coinzen on my account here https://github.com/FuzzyBearBTC/devcoin-1 but I also have another fork from knotwork's cherry picked repo https://github.com/FuzzyBearBTC/devcoin I am concerned at the ownership of the coinzen repo as the forum coinzen has now long gone.  I dont mind hosting the official repo but would like to clear up the old one if not needed etc.

Useful link to their official bitcointalk thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1151791.0
I did a little look around also and seemed few people worried this a scam site and complaining of slow transactions and crediting to accounts etc but all seem eventually resolved.  The account LiveCoin on here seems very active and new listsing of coins on site common and they seem to reply to most if not all posts in thier thread, again a good sign Just dont want this to turn out to be another vircurex or coingather etc....

I'm worried that my wallet got stuck on block 303999
Though in http://italyiimp.com/explorer it is shown that already the block 305335

If I delete and reload block chain, then on block 303999 I have this error:

Code:

The expected addresses are:
The receiverMap shows that they should get 0 coins
The shares per address however are set to 4500000000000

Off topic but please read:

"US Senate Moves to Criminalize Non-Disclosure of Cryptocurrency Ownership"

https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-senate-moves-to-criminalize-non-disclosure-of-cryptocurrency-ownership

Stand up and be heard! Stop this before it starts or we will all suffer the loss. Write, call, blog, post yell and scream. This must never see the light of day. For those of you in the US, it goes against every principle we believe in. Our country was founded on principles diametrically opposed to this proposed law.

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist."

"Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

"Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew."

"Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

I simply can't stress how important it is to stop this nonsense. We are no better than the Nazi's if we enact this. Even if you are NOT in the US, this will effect you in due time if enacted. Make your voices heard!
