-- [ANN] New Coin Launch - SHIT coin - SHT --

[nexusakachus]

this is a shitload of money

[bbit]

where can I buy shitcoins?

[wonderkid999]

Shit..... who all mining shit coin ? 

[Spoetnik]

Shit..... who all mining shit coin ? 

same kinda people buying 'JunkCoin' aka: JKC in LTC market on Cryptsy lol

[FalconFour]

Oh my god, I love this. LOVE. this. Finally, an alt-coin that's not afraid of calling itself exactly what it is: another Bitcoin knockoff with absolutely no variation other than playing games with numbers. LOVE IT.

Honestly, browsing through wheretomine.com, I got frustrated looking at the list knowing it's only going to get longer, more complicated, and impossible to just sit here and mine Bitcoins with my Jalapeno and Litecoins with my GPU. Because SOMEWHERE, SOME IDIOT IS COOKING UP ANOTHER FUCKING ALTCOIN that we're ALL going to have to start mining if we want to stay ahead of the speculation game. BitBars, FreiCoins, StableCoins... after shifting through several of these iterations, I'm already getting tired of it.

It's damn nice that someone thought far enough into the scope of reality to just say it like it is and put out a parody (of sorts) like this. The GUI is brilliantly peppered with lols, the numbers game is amazing (100 trillion? lol'd hard), very well played. Now I just need to work on mining this shit for the lulz. :3

(here's the thought process that led to this remarkable "oh shit, someone already did it" discovery. just because, win.)

Oh , so we finally got shit shitcoin.
I wonder how the hell i missed it. So can somebody tell me that there are any barfcoins , pisscoins out there?

[FalconFour]

Well, there are plenty of other shitcoins out there. Just look around the other threads in this very forum.

[niothor]

Those coins are undercover shit coins. They claim they are not shitcoins but the new ultra high mega fast cool crypto that will replace everything on this earth.

THIS. I mean, I love that everyone gives it an honest attempt, but nobody looks at the bigger picture (or they just hope everyone's too stupid to notice). Even Litecoin itself was a crapshoot - there's no room for anyone else. Major innovators play the big role here - like Litecoin going for a completely new, ASIC-resistant (-proof? maybe) algorithm that secures its role as the GPU mining coin while Bitcoin moves on to ASIC. Everyone else is just like a bunch of kids running around like "Well, I have one slightly better idea, too!". They have proofs and all - a genuinely better take on things, most of the time... but absolutely no market ground to get anywhere with. I honestly have no idea why there is even a demand for these coins, other than speculation that *they'll* be the big winner, so people snap them up like "well, what if this one goes for $1,000 like Bitcoin some day?" >.<

I was like... someone, please, PLEASE restore my faith in humanity. Then I found ShitCoin. And now, I honestly want some. There's value in ShitCoins - a funny way to get paid, as long as some exchange, somewhere, ties any arbitrary value to them. Hell, I'd buy 500 million billion Shitcoins for a dollar.

(Cryptsy? Come on, step up )

I couldn't even sell 500 billion for a dollar when I tried.

[FalconFour]

It'd be tough to convert... I mean... exchanges are denominated in units of one coin, so when we're playing with billions, that's like...

500,000,000,000 SHT = $1
$1 = 0.0011111111111111 BTC
0.0011111111111111 / 500,000,000,000 = 0.00000000000000222222222 BTC
- or -
1 SHT = $0.000000000002

I think we might have some exchange difficulties there in terms of decimals.

Maybe exchange for some other painfully low-priced coin, like Devcoins? *doodles on e-napkin in Notepad*
500,000,000,000 shitcoins for $1
$0.00059 per devcoin
1695 devcoins per dollar
0.00000000339 devcoins per shitcoin

Yeah... I don't even. Damn. Is anyone in this room Azn? My head hurts already, and I think I messed half that math up. (that's a compliment. can't be racist if it's a compliment, right? lol)

I would have bought it. Pm please.

[FalconFour]

Hey, me first! Shoot, maybe we need to set up a BTC/Shitcoin exchange, even if just as a single-purpose website. It'd have to work in units of K/M/G-Shits of course, but I bet there'd at least be some utility to it I guess I need to start thinking about building an exchange website... lol.

I code in PHP for web work, and I can modify/compile C programs with a Cygwin toolchain (I hate MS SDKs, but I live and breathe Windows). Is there some way to automate transactions to/from Bitcoin and Shitcoin wallets? That's the JSON API, isn't it?

update: yep, I'm building it. *sends 13gb Bitcoin blockchain to server*... *sends 300mb Shitcoin blockchain to server*...

[FalconFour]

Thought this was kinda funny. The network hash rate is so low right now, I hooked up my Jalapeno (9gh/s modded) to the network for about TEN SECONDS and got about 19 blocks solved before I could stop it (among about 50 rejects from hopping pools without restarting the miner, using the old block Stratum info).

I decided instead to have the server's CPU itself do the mining, which is an Atom-330 dual core 1.6GHz CPU without even as much as a CPU fan. Here are those results.


Haha... this is too much fun. :3

Rejections are likely due to the insanely high block-solve rate, which I imagine the network will adjust for momentarily. 

[FalconFour]

First step: learn how to perform transactions and get information from the interface. Best way to do that... a fountain with the mined coins.

More coming, but it's working as of now between my two client. Yay!

[FalconFour]

Hmm, major hold-up. The JSON "getbalance" function doesn't seem to work - at all. It just returns random numbers, per this bug: https://github.com/aLQ/bitbar/pull/1

Below, I test an account that my new "exchange" automatically set up, and it returns the same strange values that the web server is getting/displaying. There hasn't been any activity for either of these accounts except a few transfers to Test, several commands ago... but nothing since then except mining income every few seconds.

Code:

C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "shitbitSHTee****************b9fb58756f090ac612fce4ccf7eca859c0e867809c829d"
-9223367880222.87304688
...
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "Test"
1688461986046.07617188
...
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "Test"
1688461986046.07617188
...
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "Test"

C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "Test"

...
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind -rpcport=8505 -rpcpassword=**** -rpcuser=**** getbalance "Test"
1803402745512.69555664

Same code/function used with the current Bitcoin client works fine, returning the correct result. Any ideas?

Restarting the client doesn't help

You basically answered your own question.  Look at the pull request you posted from github.  It has the fix.  Do the same in the shitcoin src.  It's line 529 of the shitcoin rpcwallet.cpp.  Then rebuild your shitcoind and you should be good.


Maybe if you message r3wt or post a pull request to the shitcoin github, you can get him to fix it.

Really nice work so far.  Glad to see shitcoin getting some development!

[#R#a#u#t#e#]

thats some serious SHT

brilliant!

Yeah, I wish it were as easy to do as it is easy to say. I don't use mingw (Cygwin and mingw only glance at each other nicely.... other than that, they want to kill each other), and Qt5 for Windows can't compile the thing since the code it's based on wasn't Qt5 compatible. The patch is literally just a matter of changing like, two bytes, but I can't get the damn thing to compile for shit. All the links in the "how to compile with QT" readme are broken, then I stumble across this thread which killed any hope I had of making it work.

Worse, haven't heard from vlad2vlad (he's running this shit show, right? lol), so I'm still kinda stuck. If anyone else has access to a working toolchain that can actually compile this thing, there will be much <3 from the shit-lovers here.

FYI, I'm using the Qt version for the server daemon, full GUI and all, because it's a low-traffic, multi-purpose server that pretty much just runs any software I want to run 24/7. And I like being able to see transactions and status at a glance without having to reinvent the wheel with my own back-end UI. I'd much rather use that Qt version, but shitcoind would also do.

Vlad mentioned in a different post (IXC) that he was going to be heading to Europe for the holidays, so don't expect him back until after xmas.  But if you are looking for help in any kind, I really hope your not looking to Vlad for advice.  I still don't think he has figured out how to set up his own miners to mine his own shit, let alone for anyone else.    R3WT I believe was the one that created the coin for him, so he would be the one to ask.
