PRE [ANN] CureCoin development continues....

[Robert Lewandowski]

What is the maxium Curecoin that can be created? When will they be listed on Cryptsy or available to buy?


Thanks!

They already sold some of the greedy 10% cut they get from every block mined.  Might have to wait for it to come out now.

Thought it was a fair coin launch

Thought it was a fair coin launch 

It's basically a 10% premine without actually being a premine.

The way the coin works is when a block is mined, 45% of the block goes to the person who mined it, 45% gets sent off to their folding pool which distributes it to people folding, and 10% of all coins made goes to the devs.  They sold some of the 10% they plan to get to people for 1 BTC per 10k. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=344716.20

If they straight premined 10%, the community would be going rabid on it.   If the coin takes off and hits some crazy value, I expect this to come up a lot more. (10% premine of all coins is one of the largest premines I've seen)

[Robert Lewandowski]

Very interesting mate thank you, i can't find any promising release date

[Kergekoin]

10% developer comission is indeed insane... Hope remains they will reduce it.
Or perhaps at least they spend it on advertising of the coin.

Is there any cheap coin you know of that is very promising right now?

Any updates from the Dev?

New 11/14/2013 - Conference call with devs of curecoin and Stanford university on Tues 19th of Nov

Good job, I hope this goes well!
If you can get them to handle the folder rewards, it will make the project that much more robust by removing one potential point of failure. Couldn't be much better, since the folding has to be centralized anyway.
Do not surrender the ability to add other projects into Curecoin though, as this is where decentralization will come from Btw I would suggest World Community Grid as another set of projects. They cover diseases (cancer, AIDS...) and environmental issues (energy, water...). You can pick which projects to support.
Current projects:
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/research/viewAllProjects.do
Past projects:
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/research/viewAllProjects.do?proj=comp

Have a look at gridcoin. You can mine gridcoin right now while having your CPU do work for world community grid or any other BOINC projects such as rosetta, SETI, etc.

Is Gridcoin on cryptsy?

Is Gridcoin on cryptsy?

How is going with they coin? Can i donate to help you?

[xyzwarrior]

why do I get this error when folding ?
02:29:16:WARNING:Exception: 9:127.0.0.1: Send error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
02:29:19:WARNING:Exception: 8:127.0.0.1: Send error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
and it's stuck at 99.99%

Seems a bit of an update is in order, even if it's just a 'Project is going well' update

So, project is doing well. We're working on getting supporting software ready for release and making sure we're exactly on par with Stanford. Stanford's at a bit of a slow-down with finals and end-of-semester stuff, which is, of course, to be expected. We don't have a release date yet, we have quite a few ideas still floating around.

As for donations, I'm pretty sure you can still send them to the 1JESUE... address, but the 10k CUR / BTC promotion is over, any money sent to that address will be a pure donation. A lot of people are on track to get some CureCoins for their prior donations

So project is still chugging along, squashing bugs and adding awesome. Hopefully one of us can have a juicier update soon.

How many CureCoins will be out there?

[happygeorge]

I just scanned the whole thread... I think I am missing something...

The Launch was supposed to happen on Nov 16, but I don't see people commenting on that...

Also, where is the page that gives the overview of the coin:

Total Number:
Difficulty adjustment:
rate of distribution:

etc...

So.. 2014 I presume?
It would be great to have news more often, even just to say all is ok

I am trying to setup folding but all I seem to get for my GPU is FahCore 0x11

What have I done wrong? Yes I put --client-type=advanced in the target of the shortcut (I have a space after --open-web-control and then --client-type=advanced)

And yes I have shut it down, deleted the work 00 01 etc

And I still keep getting FahCore 0x11

Please help!
