[ANN][EAC] EarthCoin *SEEKING NEW EXCHANGES - HUGE VOLUMES BEING MISSED!

[mybadomen]

 Damn i really like this coin. 1 question though was the launch day the 20th? the day of the main post making this day 3 x2 reward? I only just found earth coin and immediately switched over from Doge.

 But can someone please confirm this is day 3 of Launch?

[mybadomen]

Have any pools hot a block recently?  or are they all done?

Yeah, my pool eac.hackshardgaming.net is hitting block constantly. Last hour was 25% above target.

Yea but that pool is closed to US now....seems like they want the monopoly....

Pool i am on has a huge hash Rate and im in the USA.

http://earth.vircurpool.com ----- Network Hashrate: 740.956 MH/s    Pool Hashrate: 561.030 MH/s    Pool Sharerate: 134.85 Shares/s    Pool Workers: 430 

Good Luck

I stays way from that pool. Very bad reward pool. Warning was sent 22 hours ago

[Trafficlearn]

Seems to me that you never know which end of the industry is going to manipulate the coin....if htis coin did not garner so much interest....would there be "insider" pools running like this sucking up all the hash?  just thinking out loud....you could almost anticipate what was about to happen from the various shoutboxes in the pools...

[Lala]

Awesome coin of the future!

Cryptsy soon hopefully. If Doge can get on there, Earth can. Earthlings unite.

This pool is probably cheating, which explains the crazy MH/s which is more than the net MH/s.
I had very low rewards with this pool.
Stay away.

I'm sorry, but looking at https://eac.bettercoin.org hashrates vs network hash rates + using latest wallet daemon + using latest stratum + stable hardware + number of blocks being mined by other pools == stinks of proprietary non-publicized code fixes.  It's not bad luck to have 1700% PPLNS rounds with such low difficulty.  The block submit errors are cryptic. 

I'm actually surprised the DEV hasn't chimed in on this potential black eye.

[BitcoinTate]

Anyone know the total amount of coins in circulation right now? Even better where can I find that info?

[svojoe]

I'll buy some of these, someone make me an offer, I have BTC/LTC

[mosselfloss]

I have been scammed by EnZo967/ Vincenzo Maro, I prepaid 400k Doge in exchange for EAC this weekend, never saw anything.

A reminder to keep using escrow, even when in a hurry to close a deal because you have to leave house

Is there any proper list to report scammers, besides everywhere on the internet?

NOW LAUNCHED - EarthCoin

About EarthCoin

Do we REALLY need another ALT?

*It's happening, they're everywhere! Nothing is stopping anyone from
launching their own project/coin/crypto.

However, due to the recent cluster* in the market we're all seeing developers
and teams try to bring something to market that will last, and all we get
are quick short lifecycles and 20 more coins before your portfolio can even
 mature from last weeks launches...

Our goal isn't to compete, as much as compliment, create balance, and
not divert into launching 9 more coins because we can. Instead, we'd like to
see what kind of actual substance and value we can create with a coin that
represents us all. No matter what race, age, ethnicity, we're all a part
 of this beautiful planet, and who knows maybe this tiny lil' grass roots
 idea might be enough to unite some/many of us!

--------------------------------
EarthCoin is a new generation scrypt coin that is a descendant of Litecoin.
Like Litecoin - it uses scrypt as a proof of work scheme.

EarthCoin uses a 365 day period. It will start with 10,000 coins per block,
and it varies in a sine curve with amplitude of 2,000, with a period of
one year (like the Earth moving around the Sun).

This means that you start with 10,000 coins, and it adjusts at each block,
 reaches a maximum of 12,000 coins per block after about 3 months, then
 it will descend gradually to approx 10,000 coins per block again at about
 6 months. Then a new minimum of 8000 coins per block at about 9 months.

Then we reverse that - to climb and return to 10,000 coins per block at
one year, before finally cutting the payout in half.





Every 14 days there will be one day with X2 payout.
Every 31 days there will be one day with X5 payout.

Day 1 - Day 3 are special super rewards days to celebrate the launch
of the coin, and provide incentive to the early adopters.

Day 1: X5 payout
Day 2: X3 payout
Day 3: X2 payout

Premined 2% for promotions, giveaway, bounties, dev and long term support.

Other Specifications:
 - 60 seconds block target
 - Diff retargets each block
 - Total coins will be 13.5 billion coins
 - 5 confirmations for transaction
 - 50 confirmations for minted blocks
 - support transaction message
 - normal block on average 10000 coins per block, varies seasonly
 - The block payout will be halved every year, minimum payout 1 coin per block

 - The default ports are 15677 (Connect) and 15678 (RPC)

Bounties will be announced too.

Press:: Posted As It Comes In

* The developer is here to stay - he's one of the dev's behind one of the most popular
alts and has been down this road before. Second time to market with a proper team
usually means great things to come.

* The things that matter most for all involved have been taken as a priority - Pools/Miners
are going to love this, end users/investors/speculators are going to love this, the lifecycle
will (hopefully) be long with many incentives along the way to help ensure it sticks around.

* Branding and marketing are being taken seriously, who knows where this ends up or how
far we go - we don't want to be caught off guard, called a jokecoin/scamcoin, or have a
quick run and that's it.

We're extremely excited to actually see the project officially be put into the communities hands
and see what happens with it.

Thank you kindly in advance bitcointalk, miners, pools, people, patient wives (lol), for joining
us on this exciting journey into unchartered waters - let's meet for a drink on the moon in 2014!

(SH*T HAPPENS CLAUSE - I ALWAYS PUT THESE, because just when you're about 99% done
your fancy new project, SH*T HAPPENS! Hoping we're smooth sailing from here though)

Feel free to ask questions, drop feedback. There's only two of us doing online support for this, and
it IS the crazy season IRL - so we'll do our best to try to juggle and be here as needed.

Let's go!

Good branding and interesting mining concept, potential for rewards. Will be following this thread.

would be nice to have an osx client down the road !

Sorry about that man,... what escrow do you like?

I've done some digging on the "Error 500" issue that some pools (including mine, earth.vircurpool.com) are having.

It has nothing to do with the patch that was released unfortunately.

This pastebin highlights the issue, it includes 3 block_hash styles that stratum is submitting to the daemon:

http://pastebin.com/XqdaCQkw

The first block_hash is correct in size and format, the Earthcoin daemon will at least decode it and reject or accept it based on whether it has already been submitted.

When stratum reports a "500 error" on submitblock it's because stratum attempted to submitblock on a block_hash that resembles the latter two hashes in the pastebin.

Those two hashes are both longer and the format does not appear to be correct. 

The reason we get an "500 error" is because the daemon chokes on the invalid block_hash, not that it was missing the "submitblock" rpc call which was added in the patch.

Perhaps someone here has a little more knowledge of coin daemons + stratum and can point us in the right direction.

so do you believe that higher hash rates actually improve things -- or is there really an underground sort of monopoly with this coin, where only a select few miners can get blocks?

[edit] select few pools

[vipah]

I am working on the issue with someone right now, may have found a solution.  It is possible that some pool owners figured it out and have kept it to themselves, such is crypto.

Help - trying to mine solo for last day but nothing - followed all advice - what am I missing?

in my miner I only get "new block detected on network" and "network diff set to ...(keeps changing)"?

PS: Must I set the settings in the wallet (mining) and to what?

Obviously your hashrate is not enough to be the first one to solve a block with the net hashrate atm. Solo mining for regular people of the planet Earth is viable only in the first hours of the birth of a coin.
