[ANN] [GLB]Globe – One Currency for One Globe - Polished and Ready for Action

[sphere]

a coin with taxes and a central organisation attempting to achieve price stability and some still have to ask if it is a scam?

If you read carefully you would realize a few things. Yes it has been asked. B. No its not a scam and what would one achieve if it was one? nothing... Secondly some form of central organization must be obtained to be able to further develop and advertise the coin. But i do accept your concerns and will do my up most to make sure we are as transparent as possible. In the far future technologies could be developed to take away more power from us and that is defiantly possible if users request so.

how many connections do people have? ( i have 40)

[Krabby]

Where should I go to learn how to set up a Windows-Qt for this?

[sphere]

Anyone selling? =P

Hi thanks for the interest, A thread will be posted in the coming days where users can trade GLB. Additionally, We will be selling some in the coming days/weeks to back Globe up with BTC and LTC.

[Krabby]

Sounds good, keep us updated on that.

Krabby, If you want the challenge read : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149479.0 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=252931.0

Good luck (If you run into the issues i have your probably going to need it)

Hi all,

The link to all the payment gateways/ modules for Globe are up.

You can see it all here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=360514.0


We currently support the following:
WHMCS
Magento
Zencart
WP e-commerce


Again if you start a E-commerce business or have one and start accepting Globe It will be HUGELY beneficial to both yourself and the community.

1. You will have more Globes
2. The fact you have a Globe business will increase the demand for Globe and therefore the price !

Its a WIN WIN situation.

did anyone compile it for Linux from source is working?


edit: maybe pass this one

I compiled it on 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 with the usual alt-coin dependencies, with one new (to me) twist.  Apparently this coin (and freicoin, which I've never complied before) requires a library for arbitrary-precision binary floating-point computation.  So I found it necessary to install:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libmpfr-dev

and then I was able to compile the Globe linux-QT client successfully.

Thats great bro but you can download the linux-QT. The problems with the Windows

change it to scrypt, asic coins suck ass

Well my i7 is mining and has hit a few blocks, but I can't seem to get bfgminer or cgminer working to use my blockerupter

I like to inspect and compile from source whenever possible.  Inside a VM.

Also, sphere, I think you need to fix the checkpoints.cpp file in the source, it looks like it has leftover freicoin checkpoints:

Code:

        (10080, uint256("0x00000000003ff9c4b806639ec4376cc9acafcdded0e18e9dbcc2fc42e8e72331"))
        (20160, uint256("0x0000000000009708ba48a52599295db8b9ec5d29148561e6ac850af765026528"))
        (28336, uint256("0x000000000000cc374a984c0deec9aed6fff764918e2cfd4be6670dd4d5292ccb"))
        (30240, uint256("0x0000000000004acbe1ed430d4a70d8a9ac62daa849e0bc708da52eeba8f39afc"))
        (37800, uint256("0x00000000000042958bc14bd04b0a2a3c8cc675c248e404c418899e6b7c77e969"))

I'll bet that could be causing some of the problems upthread (e.g. inability to use external miners) if you compiled the binaries with those checkpoints.  My compiled client expected 37800 blocks from the outset and kept trying to sync even when it had all the blocks.

[fitsbach]

How many blocks done at this point?

[trinsic]

408

Same issue here.

Ok thanks. Yes i will resolve the checkpoints issue later down the road. Just need to get some traction regarding use going first. Whats the point of having good checkpoints if no-ones using right? thanks again. If you want to fix the checkpoints issue and upload it onto Github I would be more than happy.

  can you me step to compile it but I was trying it but no go.

Ok going now. Will try and sort out checkpoints issue this weekend so those with external miners can start mining and get a exchange post up and running. If anyone has issues please try and help each other out.

[evershawn]

sphere,

I commend your self control in dealing with the trolls that have nothing better to do than flame and complain.

Wish you luck on the coin.

I'm not sure how long you have -- guess it depends on the difficulty algorithm and how fast hashing power piles on.  The lowest "incorrect" checkpoint is 10080 and the Globe blockchain is already at block 1200 after just a few hours.  Plus you need to leave leeway time before block 10080 arrives for everyone to replace their current versions with updated versions of the client.   You don't necessarily need to add "good" checkpoints, but you need to delete the bad, inherited checkpoints and redistribute binaries ASAP, I would think.

Good luck!
