[ANN] Bytecoin|BTE| Official Re-Launch of this 1:1 Bitcoin Coin!

[mistercoin]

Bytecoin was brought to us back a few months ago as probably the first alt-coin to hit the market in a long time that was sha-256. Then came the hell or purgatory of scrypt clones made (mostly) by people who don't know a thing about them.
The original goal of BTE was to make a Bitcoin clone 1:1 copy so that it could be (in the future) worth a nice bit. It also wanted to give a chance for the people who missed out on the Bitcoin launch, who are now making hundreds of thousands from it.
BTE died off slowly as all these coins came crashing down into the purgatory.
Here is it's relaunch

BYTECOIN

The Bitcoin 1:1 Brother

Currently ahmed_bodi is working on a merge mine patch for the client, and will hopefully be functioning soon. He also has a patch coming out for the Bytecoin client soon, so be prepared to UPDATE

One of the main uses for the wallet is to encourage any donations to be given and then used as bounties for proffessional services such as websites.

I guess i will be the one to say it.

Almost no notice - Welcome to a forked chain.

How is this an official patch?

Not by the coin developer. As far as I know , the original developer has not handed official development over to anybody.

Have any services been notified and agreed to this "unoffical" patch? I have not (CryptoCoinExplorer.com). So what do I run? I have always been a stickler about CCE and official updates.

More importantly, has Cryptsy and any other exchange supporting Bytecoin been notified and agreed? What block does it start at? What does it change?


I have nothing against revitalizing a near death coin, however if this is a hard fork with no official development ties or notice, you just may end up killing the patient.

[ahmed_bodi]

yes bitjohn has been given the new client there currently isnt a hard fork but its definitly a recommended update. Its been checkpointed until the block before the supposed fork yesterday. secondly i didnt know cce existed or that you ran a bytecoin explorer as i looked everywhere for one. Id recommend that you download the client and mistercoin shall add you as the reference for the block explorer

[rammy2k2]

great news, i love sha256 !

[simichent]

when will mining commence ?

[ahmed_bodi]

you can begin mining now. just remember to use the new client

[simichent]

are we mining through the client of another miner ?

[ahmed_bodi]

you just mine like normal, solo with the client or pooled with cgminer/guiminer/cudaminer

[simichent]

im just getting pool down/slow with any port i use

[AgentME]

This coin admits it purely exists just so people can get in on its launch? Pump and dump scams don't even try to hide themselves any more, do they?

[ahmed_bodi]

Every coin is a clone of something or another. None of the coins would exist without bitcoin, its gradual improvement of a coin which builds it, and that is our aim

EDIT: this isnt even our coin the original dev left months ago but we didnt want the coin to die so are trying to build and improve on it.
