You put a donation address in your signature on the forum then wonder why coins appear "from no-where" ?

Have you been so unhelpful that you are convinced no-one would deem your contribution(s) to the forum worthy of a "tip" of 10 DVC ?

Not saying that is where they came from but maybe you could check the exact address the coins arrived at to confirm or eliminate that possibility?

I was pages behind in reading when I saw your post so figured I would have to get to it later once I had read the whole thread in case someone did respond.

The daemon can mine, the old GUI we prevented it mining to prevent thread errors of some kind.

I do not know whether the new one encountered the same errors so alsi disabled mining or maybe the new bitcoin code somehow doesn't introduce the same errors the old code did when one tries to plug the curl / geturl thing into it. Or maybe the programmer who did the new version was familiar enoguh with the intricacies of thread-safty to work around whatever problem we had in the original that we never pinned down.

It would take I do not know how many years on average to luck into a block though mining with the daemon. Plus, a block would give you 5000 coins not 10 coins.

Also if you applied to become a Devtome author someone might have sent coins to test that you had in fact given them the correct address to put into the receiver files.

If this is your first round of writing on devtome, it's probably just the test to make sure your listed wallet address in the receiver files is the correct one.

Hello, I have applied the subdomains of official devcoin.org, so from now you could visit the services from new domain:

faucet: http://faucet.devcoin.org/
block explorer: http://blockchain.devcoin.org/ (or directly, http://blockchain.devcoin.org/chain/DeVCoin )

Some AV programs highlight false positives (trigger anything not actually whitelisted) where a client is pretty new to the AV or still has mining code in it (note that most on that list don't show a problem).

Updated code currently being developed and tested should eliminate any of these residual issues in new wallet builds, although none of the clients are a problem in practice. i.e. there is no 'trojan'.

I am doing a devcoin giveaway and was trying to be nice by giving people the transaction ID. Apparently, if you post to many times in a short amount of time, you get a demotion. I am now a Jr Member and don't want to go any lower with extra posts.

If someone could be so kind and put some comments in the thread to push it back to the top of the Alternate Cryptocurrencies thread, it would be appreciated.

I am going to try and limit my posts for a little while...

Is share counting done on a word to word basis or in batches of 1k? For example, say I have one article of 1,200 words and another for 200. Would my total be 1,400 or 1.4 share or just 1 share for the 1k article?

Another question, is there a limit to the size of the individual articles?

[unclejed613]

i just noticed the devcoin wallet generates a new address every time i start it....  not used to that.... i was using Multibit for my btc wallet, and it only gives a new address if you ask for one....

Today launching my DVC qt on OS X I'm getting these errors and qt closes shortly afterwards 

This is from devcoin.org? You may have to delete your data directory and run a fresh blockchain download.. make sure you copy your wallet.dat before you clear directory contents.

Thank you.

It is done in blocks of 1k. There are no decimal shares. Though 1.8k words will give you 2 shares. It is a total word count of all articles that round, so if you have 1 for 1.2k and another for .6k then you have 1.8k which rounds to 2 shares.

I believe it will give you a new address everytime one is used (best practices and all). I found it annoying too, but the old addresses are all there in the address book and you can use them all you want, it will just keep making new ones for you though

[smeagol]

This may be unfeasible, but if devcoin paid stake, wouldn't it encourage people to hold, therefore cutting back dumping?

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

I would think the only places that could decide to do that were the online wallets that know how much is in them. No way to really tell what people have in their wallets.

Hey, does anyone know how often is the https://github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/blob/master/devtome_31.csv is updated? And also is the phone wallet going to be available for iOS?
Thanks so much,
-AM

31 will not be updated much since it is done being updated. 32 is updated nightly.  The number at the end is the round number, we are in round 32. The previous round is updated a couple of times after the end of the round to be sure all the information is up to date and finalized.

Ah that makes sense haha I was looking at the wrong sheet.
Thanks,

Chad

So every word is counted in the total but the payout will be rounded up to the nearest 1k, got it.

Any info on the limit per article / page? Is there any?

There really is not a limit on article or page, "Writers should write what they know best. Non fiction articles must have proper punctuation, spelling and grammar. In fiction, the spelling, grammar and punctuation of quotes should be what the characters would use. For poems, the style is up to the writer. In all the cases, the writer must proof read their work." Just meet these requirements and your page is good! Add as much on the topic as possible but for little know topics you will not need as much. Most pages though are between 1,000 - 2,000 though.
Keep up the great work!

You have a limit of 50k words per round. If you write more than that, it will be counted for the next round.
