New Ixcoin fork -> I0coin

[Cosbycoin]

Hey CC, is there any chance of you re-opening the i0coin exchange on Bitparking?

With https://vircurex.com/ operating I don't think there's any need for it given the low level of use of i0coin at the moment. If it started getting used for other things I might get tempted.

Would it be hard for you to start a Fairbrix exchange??? I miss FBX.

I'm sure you miss it because you probably hold about 100k FBX to take a DUMP on the exchange lol

nope I don't have any, I just like trading weird coins.

Well go to btc-e.com and there are about 4 different ones you can trade!

One more thing..."trading" can mean SELLING and only SELLING....

I forked the main bitcoin repo and made all the changes that are needed for the i0coin chain, i tested it generating a few transactions and even using the same blockchain that were downloaded with the old client and zero problems

Did you backout the changes that result in blockchain forks? The BIP16 and BIP30 stuff? Or change the dates when these activate? If not, the majority of miners will need to be using your client, or problems may occur (anyone being able to redeem BIP16 transactions, working on an orphaned fork, etc).

Ooops you're right! I missed that part because i wasn't an active member in the community when this changes was made. I will take a look on it, thanks!

Tough crowd.  I am on BTC-E, Vircurex, Mtgox, bitparking/nmc, glbse, but still not enough to keep me busy.

I don't think you want to backout the BIP16 and BIP30 fixes.  They make the block chain safer against attacks.  Plus you'd have to back them out every time the I0coin client is upgraded.  Might as well incorporate them now (by leaving them in) rather than later.  Miners will need to upgrade if they start having problems with too many orphans.

[zeboo]

If anything just make the BIP16 and BIP30 fixes activate at a later date to give miners time to upgrade.

Yes, that is what i'm gonna do

What, you're not running an Open Transactions client yet?!?!

I just commited the patch to enable BIP16 & BIP30 on Mon, 01 Oct 2012 00:00:00 GMT, that is a plenty of time to make sure that all the miners and clients upgrade to the new client & daemon before the changes on the protocol get implemented.
Also, here is a compiled windows executable of the latest i0coin client:

YES!  
my i0coin logos are being used as the icon of the client now!
Waited for so long, and now its arrived.

Hopefully it gets put to good use as now it represents i0coin currency!

I'm sorry but a logo will not make a crypto currency a success.

Also keep in mind that the proof of work for I0coin is the same as Bitcoin's, hence it can be merge mined.

This means that for free anyone who is mining bitcoins can create I0coins for FREE....ultimately making them worthless in the scheme of things because as a miner it is a free bi-product and who wouldn't want to sell the free bi-product if it cost them NOTHING to create.

Just my two crypto-currency cents....

[lightlord]

Quick! Fork i0coins!  

i0coins at https://www.vircurex.com/ is worth 0.0003
it used to be worth 0.00002, that is a 1500% increase.
Not bad not bad

Yeah, lets make i0scoin, with scrypt and all of that stuff. lol

[lightlord]

i0scoin The newest currency  

Here's why its amazing

-It has an "s" after 0
-It has seven letters instead of six
-Um I can't think of anymore <-----   NP, not thinking of more clears the mind, Clearly that's another amazing thing!

Jeesh I am already up to three and counting.

4.- Because it is not an scam.
5.- Because every coin will be worth $100.
6.- Because /me can't also think more good things! lol

7) I earned an extra post count for just saying this

i0scoins are sounding better and better lol

[lightlord]

kr105 thanks for the new release. I am assuming you put in the i0coins into the client?
Could you utilize a new patch, that breaks off from bitcoin?
So it isn't just a byproduct of it, and thus would maintain a higher value.

It started as standalone currency, but some months ago it was patched to allow merged mining. Changing it back to standalone will create a fork, or maybe we can put a starting date on the client, but i'm not sure as the network power will decrease a lot and it will be easy to hack. I vote for i0scoin lol

[kano]

Well - from the point of view of i0coin - fork (or future change) is the only option if you wanted to actually change the hash function.

Some other coin, would of course be "some other coin" and thus not relevant to i0coin.

[doublec]

Stopping merge mining leads to the issue where merge mining was added in the first place - preventing people with lots of hash power double spending the exchanges.
