[ANNOUNCE] New alternate cryptocurrency - Geist Geld

[Lolcust]

When will be COPY option ENABLED in GG client?

It sort of is - windows "crutches" client allows you to copy and paste any text in the console, with the exact manner of doing so being determined by EDIT->Settings->Copy and paste

where can i check the total network hash?

1 block every 3 seconds seems..crazy.

Trying to send GG
I get this error: {"code":-4,"message":"Error: Transaction creation failed  "}
4 times, same error. Restarted client, nothing.

Is there a transactions size limit or something? Sending 10k GG in one go didn't work out but when I split the transaction into 2x5K it works.

It usually is 1 block every 15 but someone dumped a load of hashes on it it must be. Will take 20 s or so to adjust.

So you can't send more than 5000 ? Odd, I'll look into that.

Since all your coins are probably generated in 7 coin blocks, spending 10k coins will require a transaction with 1429 addresses at once. That's probably too large of a transaction.

[Starlightbreaker]

well, the simplecoin pool tripled in hashrate since yesterday.

[Lolcust]

Ah yesss, I decided not to mess with transaction code )

Correct
Did some more testing and it seems limit is at 6000

Look at how large this transaction is:

Ya, dat might grow into a problem...

WOW thats fast, even every 15 seconds.  Why does bitcoin use such a long window (10 minutes).  I don't quite understand.  If GG can produce/verify several blocks a minute, why does it take btc 10 mins?

Long story.

Bitcoin has a different set of assumptions about threats and network. GG was made to see whether that envelope can be pushed.

Can you give me the short version of the long story if its too much...  10 minutes seems like too long.  Wouldn't BTC be better if it was 1 minute or less to confirm a transaction?

There is tradeoff between centralization and block speed.

BTC was designed as "millions upon millions of peeps mine with cpus" not "everyone is gathered in 4-6 pools"

Also, you need damn precise clocking to mine blocks at such speed (that's why GG has a built-in NTP solution to, well, ensure good time across the net)

The price is good but the difficulty jumps to more than 200!

[Moray]

And still, most profitable chain!

Tried & got tired. It just selects & cant able to copy. Also changed settings in hotkeys..

Anyone can able to successfully copy address from GG client window using copy option?
besides Tenebrix interface is fantastic compared to GG.

I also face a strange problem. Clicking the GeistGeld_Portable_Cons.exe or TenebrixPortable.exe directly or with a shortcut don't always open the clietns.
Some times it takes 2-3 double clicks to open.
Is their any way to directly open the clients as in other client currencies?
It seems the portable software you used to create have some problems, which some times causes more clicks to open.

I copy it, by console window--> mark, then CTRL+C and voala.

[worldinacoin]

Yeap this is what I did too, a few seconds job, I don't see the fuss over it.
