Guys - bter.com seem to be amenable to trading alt coins on their exchange.

Why don't we e-mail them at admin@bter.com and ask them to support Devcoin?

I am doing it right now  

good idea! we need ad least one alternative exchange for devcoin!

So did you got a response?

Not yet - I can see they are working on a Bit Bar exchange though.

Can everyone here please e-mail admin@bter.com requesting they add DVC.

The more enquiries they get the more likely they are to list something apparently. Let's do this!

Being listed on another exchange is vital to DVC's long term success.

Hi guys.

Here is the bter response:

Hi,

Thanks for all your information. We will do some investigation of this coin and think carefully about it.

Best,
Bter

Feel free to contact them at admin@bter.com to supply them with more information about Devcoin and why they should add it!

Another exchange supporting Devcoin will help immeasurably with all we are trying to achieve with this project!

I've done that.

It turns out that the devda web wallet does not account for generation devcoins. So please install devcoin on your computer if you haven't already:
http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=how_to_get_setup_earning_devcoins_by_writing#get_wallet_here

and then send me a devcoin address from your computer and I'll update your address in all the files used to pay people. Thanks to Twobits, devcoin is now much easier to install, so even if you had trouble before please try again.

I was playing around with the .png file Icoin created, as I really liked it, and came up with this...

Is that alright with you Icoin? I can remove it...

The Twobits and FuzzyBear ASCMDVCPT - ASICMiner Devcoin Pass Through project:
https://cryptostocks.com/securities/39
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=196217.msg2039800#msg2039800

has sent out a dividend of more than a dollar. So they split the six share mining business award:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34586.msg1220943#msg1220943

They will each get 3 shares in round 23. The next mining business award is 5 shares.

Emfox made a devcoin faucet:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=191553.0

I suggest an ongoing payment of 2/5 of a share to Emfox for running the faucet, and 2/5 of a share to the faucet itself. There is no plan to make a second bounty for another faucet, because that would just encourage people to hit both faucets, it would not lessen the administrative work from the first. If Emfox stops the faucet and someone else starts another, then the ongoing payment would be switched to the next faucet.

Any objections, or should something be changed?

Hello, are there any suggestions? If not, I'd like to suggest this to apply before round 23, so that I can increase the faucet size earlier. 5 DVC is too small, I think I'll set it to a proper size, that can use up the  2/5 share in a month manner.

This can not apply in round 22, because those receiver files are already downloaded into every devcoin client that has been active in the last five days. Round 23 is the soonest possible.

By the way, I prefer paying people for service, rather than giving money for nothing. Could the faucet be upgraded with a reasonable amount of work to give people devcoins in exchange for a devtome link in their signature:
http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=earn_devcoins_by_marketing#signature

People would input their profile page, and if the faucet detected a devtome link, they would get devcoins. To encourage people to keep the link in their signature, the faucet could check a random amount of time in the future and give them more devcoins if they still have a devtome link in their signature.

Oh yes, by 'before' round 23 I mean starting with 23 ... anyway, we mean the same

That's a good idea, I can implement it. But there's a problem, I have no way to identify that the profile page one person input IS ACTUALLY his page. e.g. one could input your profile page, he could also the extra coins.

Good point, I wasn't paranoid enough

You could make a ban list, starting with the profile pages in the devtome invoices. Every time a new profile page is added, that would also be added to the ban list.

Edit: The devcoin payment should go to the dvc address in the signature. That way, even if a scammer did somehow enter someone else's page, the devcoins would not go to the scammer. Indeed, that alone should eliminate the need for a ban list.

Edit2: The faucet payment is now official:

That's perfect solution now

Thanks for the button, you get 2/5 of a share, it is now in the devcoin gallery:
http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin_gallery#fheenix

One 2/5 of a share button award remains:

A tool to implement paying out more than 100% to people merged-mining using p2pool with bitcoin as primary chain and devcoin as one of potentially many (currently about seven or eight or so) secondary chains.

Preferred is to pay them these extra (as in, above and beyond the bitcoins that p2pool sends them automatically in the coinbase transactions of the bitcoin blocks) earnings in the form of devcoins.

The extra payout tool bounty is now official, with a six share for the first developer, then 3 shares for the next. It must be open source, like all other devcoin funded development.

Great! There is already a Massively Merged Mining p2pool up and running at dvcstable01.devcoin.org:10332 but so far of course it only acts as a no-fee p2pool for bitcoins because we have no tool for sharing out the proceeds of selling all the merged mined coins it is mining alongside the bitcoins. (NMC, DVC, GRP, I0C, IXC, CLC and XGG.)

Still, if people feel confident that someday a tool will be built to share out revenue from sales of the merged coins, they could start using it. Even just for mining bitcoins a no fee pool is about the best you'll find, and once we get the tool(s) it will become in effect a negative-fee pool, a pool that pays you 100% of the bitcoins plus a bunch of devcoins that should add up to at least a few extra percent.
