Fight the fight, sing the song.
I vote for "Around The World" by Daft Punk. Any word on the source code?

Apparently the new diff means that I don't get to solve any more blocks with the pathetic little USB farm I have pointed at the network. But I will leave them pointed there for the time being, because it is not as if they can get me more BTC than if I spent my time going to faucet websites. At least with ALT they still have a chance to find something.

Altinos? Altons?
Logically, altcoins. Because each part of an altcoin is equal to the whole. Hmm. All subsets of the set are equal of the set itself? That is true for empty set. It might even be true for all one-member sets if we accept that nothingness (empty set) is not "a part". ... Is empty set part of Altcoin?

I spoke too soon. Must have been a dry spell. Solving blocks again. By the way, for those interested, I went back to 60/120 for scan and expiry now that the blocks are being solved at a more reasonable rate.

Excellent! The first hurdle cleared!
Now we need a pool (maybe p2pool) and then finally get them trading on an exchange. After that, the destruction of the false altcoins can commence.

Anyone care to create any of these things? We also need to get a new executable for Windows, Linux, make sure the new Altcoin logo is in use in the wallet, rmeove any coingen.io branding if it's still there, etc. Post a suggested bounty, compete with each other if applicable, etc. I can contribute some funding (or feel free to do it for free!) If any of you know of services that automate any of the common altcoin needs, feel free to link. ^^^ GET PAID ^^^

Port is 9336, and 9335 is RPC. The new version does not need the addnode= config entry. Anyone with a fixed IP willing to be an additional seed node? thanks a lot. syncing up on one of my unused vps. (might add a p2pool is im feeling ballzy) 64.90.187.149

Yes it sure was... why can't we all just agree to live in one time zone and leave the rest of the planet to the more charismatic megafauna? Anyway, we're both awake now and This Is Happening. It's turned into Lesson Four: How Confirmations Work. We're doing it in 4 quarters, and I went first. So I'm sitting there staring at the wallet software on one screen, wondering (like any *coin noob) why the transaction doesn't even have a single confirmation yet. It's been like 5 minutes, WTF? Is it a double spend? Did all the miners go away? Who is this HunterS anyway? That was a lot of money for a joke coin with no source code, you dipstick... You know, classic "Oh crap" panic after sending out BTC and waiting for the whole counterparty risk bit to be over with. Meanwhile I have bfgminer running on the other screen, and nothing much happening there. New blocks have slowed way down since the diff change (because that's the whole point of a diff change). And somewhere in my lizard brain there's that panic moment, that something's wrong, blocks are too slow AND confirmations are too slow, what are the odds of that happening at the same-- DING! Bfgminer shows a new block discovered on the network at the exact same moment as the wallet software shows its first confirmation. (Insert Sudden Clarity Clarence meme image here.) Of course I know how blocks and confirmations work, whatamistupid? I've read it plenty of times. I've bought/sold/traded plenty. But seeing the stuff I take for granted in Bitcoin happen on a small chain right in front of me... priceless. Every Comp Sci professor who wants to teach how cryptocurrencies work should start an alt for their class, have them all set up with wallets and mining software and watch it run for the whole semester. And you don't need a Comp Sci professor to do it. Just download altcoin! Learn to escrow, seriously.

Meanwhile my bid at 125 satoshi per up to 500k sits unfilled. This is a most disorderly marketplace!
MPOE-PR, I have not forgotten you! I'll sell you 500K of my new hoard for your 125 bid, send me an ATC address and I'll go first (once my confirmations are all in and I've finished paying HunterS). If you can do 130 satoshis to avoid setting the entire ATC economy back by 5 satoshis, I'd be much obliged. But up to you. Given how hard it is to mine new ATC for the next two weeks at least, I hope I won't be selling this low again. Except for tonight's pizza buy, of course. Send to 1MPGRCrbib3aFGtTCLF5nADZcLEAgdTu7E and publish your addy.

Sent! Nice vanity ATC address, btw. Once you have all the confirmations you need, you can send payment to BTC address: 1Pvp3xUJbvFRTNzWAYTeSGBozJB79eevFF

Confirmations will take several hours -- it looks like the Altcoin mining network dropped this morning to about 1-2 blocks (confirmations) per hour as the early horde of miners has moved on after the difficulty increase the other day.
That means good odds for anyone who wants to point powerful hardware at it right now, just sayin'.

Sold, and welcome to the new global elite (...of underpants gnomes). Please post an ATC address and I'll go first. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2Fd%2Fdd%2FGnomes_plan.png&t=665&c=6LlJ46nmm0AlPA) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnomes_%28South_Park%29I'll get myself set up on the WoT this weekend, just in case my altcoin trades are deemed worthy of a rating by anyone in the WoT. Edit: added image and link in case anyone doesn't get it. Send 30,000 Altcoins to 1N2vdbBpvhmeAELqCdWYWcLo5rxnBsZ2zo Then post an address and receive 0.045 BTC and a txid. If you get in the WOT this trade would be worthy of a rating.
