[ANNOUNCE] SolidCoin - new and improved block chain. Secure from pools

[Lorna Morgan]

Going for the ewallet bounty here

Let me know what you think; http://solid.coinb.in/

If its acceptable, i'll sort out a SSL certificate.

Yay!

I use your script on the bitcoin button. I'll try to get the solid.coinb.in script on the solidcoin button before bed.

ZZzzzzzzz

There you go ...

@CoinHunter click the Solidcoin button and the proper popup happens. Still testing.

I'd like to announce my first Solidcoin membership sale.

Thanks Lorna, I enjoyed you and your site very much.

Sorry, way off-topic...

Thanks, that's a topic I like.

lets make a new thread called LORNA need more attention

[Starlightbreaker]

lets make a new thread called LORNA need more attention

to be fair, more attention can give her more traffic to the site.

eh, not a bad idea.

I suspect we should utilize her as a way to advertise new chains that come out.

The whole boobie bouncing thing will get a lot of attention...

Maybe put like a solidcoin logo on one nipple and a bitcoin logo on the other nipple and have a titty bouncing session to promote both for the time being.

Lorna what do you say? 

[CoinHunter]

Even if another blockchain does overtake Bitcoin, SolidCoin won't be the one to do it.  To be successful, the challenger would need to make significant protocol-level improvements, and even that might not be enough.  CoinHunter hasn't done this.  Protocol-wise, all he's done is changed a few constants; nothing more complex than what the creator of Ixcoin did.

Haha, could you post some more FUD? SolidCoin is nothing like Ixcoin, which changed (besides name changes) maybe ~50 lines of code. Ixcoin has now copied some aspects of SolidCoin's changes.

SolidCoin on the other hand has added code to the base to extend the API, fixed about 40-50 bugs, streamlined areas of the UI, implemented a much smarter network algorithm and processes blocks much faster. All within a week. If you're going to try to troll something at least get your information right and attack it justly.

For instance if I was going to attack SolidCoin I would say it's still got a lot of buggy and not so buggy Bitcoin code in it. I'm trying to change that. The difference is I've been writing apps from the ground up and releasing them online for almost 15 years, the people with my experience rarely, if ever, work for free on projects like SolidCoin. You know why? We're out enjoying money and other things in life instead of innovating. I want to innovate with this because I want to be an end user of a viable online currency, not one that is broken like btc.

Smoothie and Lorna:

The obvious thing here is to make a currency for pornsites possible called sexcoin, eroticacoin, or porncoin. Could be used for pay per view, monthly memberships, virtual lap dances and so on.
It's a purpose built currency for the porn industry. Lorna you could be the mascot for it and Smoothie you can help mine them. Sound good?


BTW guys solid coins are now a falling currency. The trend is a falling one. You can tell by the limp downward movements on the graph that is falling. Maybe someone injected some viagra after the first major crash but its got no where to go but down for now. Netcraft confirms it.

Posted about Solidcoin on funkykit.com, PM'd CoinHunter about it, received replies, have not received bounty.
Also posted about them and began accepting them on my business page (epic-hw.com, we're new but have already sold some fan controllers), haven't heard back on that end or received bounty.

What's up CoinHunter?
I'd love to see Solidcoin succeed, but not paying bounties isn't going to help much.

[armaman]

In addition to my last post, i added the 5 reasons to own solid coin to my blog.

LOL I'll mine them if you develop the source for release. Haha.

Anyway, solidcoins are in a downward movement.

I suspect the market will bottom out at 0.007 to 0.0085 btc range and rebound.

I sold all my solid coins earlier at 0.026 btc and indicated I would wait until the market moves lower, if at all.

Didn't I reply to your PM? I believe I asked you for some more details about your vendor bounty claim.

[John Tobey]

SolidCoin is on Abe: http://abe.john-edwin-tobey.org/

Note: this site exists for demonstration purposes and will not handle heavy loads.  Please consider hosting a copy of Abe.

[Bobnova]

You replied about the vendor, but never actually sent the Publicity bounty for funkykit.  Two separate claims just like my first PM said.

[pantherqs]

So, anyone have any idea how to go about integrating Solidcoin/Bitcoin processing into oscommerce as some sort of realtime payment gateway?  I'm drawing a blank.

[caston]

Smoothie: ah so its on. I think sexcoin is already used in a 3d online interactive sex game so we should use the slightly more tacky name groupsex coin.

I would think you could send your cart order through coinb.in or solid.coinb.in in a similar way as if your were processing with paypal. Once you get the confirmation callback from coinb.in you could make your dispatch.

@OutCast3k am I getting that right?

If I get an instance going on my site I'll post the method.

[pantherqs]

Well, that sounds somewhat painful.  Guess we'll just stick to doing them manually.  Thanks for the response though! ^_^

Are you talking about sex or the PHP cart scripts?

I'm talking about the protocol.  You know, that thing that's actually kind of difficult to change once a blockchain gets established?  What have you done that can't just be released as a modified client for the Bitcoin blockchain?  By my count:

• Difficulty algorithm aims for 3 minute blocks instead of 10 minute blocks.  Achieved by changing one constant.  Of questionable merit, due to scalability concerns.
• Difficulty retargets more often.  Achieved by changing one constant.  Essential for an underdog blockchain to survive, but not really relevant for Bitcoin.
• Difficulty increases limited to +10% per retarget.  Achieved by changing one constant.  Essentially an extra subsidy to miners, not relevant for Bitcoin.
• Block reward changed from 50 to 32.  Achieved by changing one constant.  Irrelevant except for the psychological factor, see also: Ixcoin.

Any other PROTOCOL changes that I missed?  If not, then are these really supposed to be your grand innovations that we're all expected to switch blockchains for?

A diff would help to make your point.

On the other point, that Solidcoin does not bring substantial changes to the world, see the fact that you accused the Bitcoin early adopters of being "elitist" and now you yourself are becoming arrogant against them, which brings you down to the same level of attitude that you seemingly reject. QED.

BTW, you haven't even changed the default port in the FAQ after the new release. Are you perhaps in a rush and you forgot? Buggy FAQ...

[doublec]

A diff would help to make your point.

This is my attempt to break down the solidcoin changes made since the bitcoin version it was based on: https://github.com/doublec/solidcoin

The tag 'solidcoin/v000' is the initial bitcoin release. The tags 'solidcoin/v102' is the current source available for download. There are minor differences due to whitespace changes but this shows the code changes. This might help you identify the 40-50  bug fixes that coinhunter is talking about.
