[ANN] [BEN] Benjamins ◄ SHA-256 ►◄ BOUNTY AVAILABLE to make BEN merge mineable!!

[AllAboutTheBenjaminsBaby]

So for whatever reason, my wallet doesn't want to sync at all, is there a reason for this?
I've tried deleting all of my files but my .conf and wallet.

My .conf contains all of the addnodes, so I don't really see the issue.

Did you launch your QT with -server in your .bat so it uses the .conf file? If you don't, it won't bother trying to use your conf

[mine2slow]

its working for me, when i get home this afternoon ill change the way the site is served.

It's working but I can only see the first 99 transactions on my addy..

http://198.147.23.176:2750/address/1HrY7FuKf2t9EqxFpMET2Zd774RbZkxMgs

That's a lot of transactions for a few days lol

only 20-30%

Is this proof of concept or do we get a next button?  << < > >>  any eta?

That appears to be all your transactions. Here is the first one:

Transaction     Block   Approx. Time           Amount           Balance           Currency
28a84d63f9...   4487   2014-02-02 07:23:49   41.11234332   41.11234332   BEN

Meaning before that your balance was 0 aka it wouldn't show up on the explorer

The first time stamp is also about 2.5 hours after the launch, so my guess is that is your first transaction ever on BEN

I had transactions right from the start solo mining

has there been any transactions of this coin?

I have 10 like this and a few orphans

Generated coins must mature 120 blocks before they can be spent. When you generated this block, it was broadcast to the network to be added to the block chain. If it fails to get into the chain, its state will change to "not accepted" and it won't be spendable. This may occasionally happen if another node generates a block within a few seconds of yours.

100 of the 500 coins I donated to you guys were generated in block 683 as seen here

here is the transaction for the donation

FYI I follow a silly coin called NDL and they do a lot of promo stuff
lottery, contest, giveaways etc. to expand the community, any plans for this kind of stuff?

ill talk to a few of the guys tonight and see what we can put together

there was no premine or anything, so ill have to see how much they want to throw down to do some promos, but i am willing to run some stuff that hasnt been recently banned (like giveaways have, stupid move) on these forums

U guys need to add a donate sig n addys for the devs / promo / contest etc

I will donate, I'm sure others that have mined may also. Donating for that kind of stuff only helps
the coins community and popularity, every BEN miner will BENefit... Pun intended! LOL

LOL BENefit, thats a good one. Good idea, though

ALL the GUYS running POOL's should DONATE! 

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BENJAMIN$

none of these transactions are seen here in my wallet addy

http://198.147.23.176:2750/address/1HrY7FuKf2t9EqxFpMET2Zd774RbZkxMgs

I mined over 150 blocks and none are shown

Right, but if you look up an address you will only see the amount sent to that address, which is why the one you are linking is only showing what you got from P2Pool mining. The address lookup only shows the balance for THAT address, not your entire wallet

so what's the point if you can only see selective transactions. I thought this was to be transparent like bitcoin
in bitcoin explorer you can see everything not just coins generated from pools. am I missing something here?

I should be able to see every transaction in or out of my wallet addy 1HrY7FuKf2t9EqxFpMET2Zd774RbZkxMgs

[AllAboutTheBenjaminsBaby]

Your wallet has multiple addresses, each one should be treated like a unique bank account. Your wallet just holds the total of all your addresses

This is the same for any coin ever made, not something special we are doing

here is one of my bitcoin addresses

you can see all transactions in or out

https://blockchain.info/address/14rBip93ePwJMp3kiFgz2WJ424p3iUSpEG

this is my point

That is showing the activity of one address. Exactly what I am trying to tell you...

[AllAboutTheBenjaminsBaby]

500 was sent from you and the 935 was from PityThePool - That's all the donations sent to that address, so that's why it's only showing those two coming in. The ones going out are what we've given away so far

Solo mining comes up as different addresses when the blocks are found. If you look in transaction history you can find them there

[AllAboutTheBenjaminsBaby]

Anyone knows when the diff will retarget?  We've been stuck at 65k forever... We are getting 1 block every 3-4 mins --- too slow...

Hoping soon. I expect it will tonight sometime. Slow blocks this early just means the Benjamins you have will be worth more due to rarity!

[gxsbk]

Benjamin himself will also provide an official mining pool within 48 hours of launch, as well as an ABE based Block Explorer for easy transaction tracking, both coming up at the same time.


 More than 48 hours?
Any block explorer yet?

Rarity? There's over 1.7M Benjamins out there!  What are talking about.  I want plentiful!  Just like Dogecoin!   over 800 blocks to retarget for a SHA-256 coin is way to slow, with those 1 TH rigs coming online...  I smell Skim-Mining... just like UNO.

That's nothing compared to a lot of coins. Only 12.8 million Benjamins ever

[AllAboutTheBenjaminsBaby]

Do you mean that we have 10% of the coins mined so far, only after a few weeks?

Roughly, but it halves every 64,000 blocks, so it will be a nice gradual slope down to smaller rewards. In fact, it has slowed down quite significantly in the past couple days

FUCK THE RULES!! Just follow the example of BEN

At the age of 20, while on an 80-day ocean voyage from London back to Philadelphia, Benjamin Franklin developed a “Plan” for regulating his future conduct. He was partially motivated by Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.” He followed his Plan he “pretty faithfully” even to the age of 79 when he finally revealed it in his writings. After he wrote about it, he was even more determined to stick with The Plan for his remaining days because of the happiness he had enjoyed thus far by following it.


Benjamin Franklin’s “Plan” was made up of 13 virtues, each with short descriptions:

Temperance: Eat not to dullness and drink not to elevation.
Silence: Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself. Avoid trifling conversation.
Order: Let all your things have their places. Let each part of your business have its time.
Resolution: Resolve to perform what you ought. Perform without fail what you resolve.
Frugality: Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself: i.e. Waste nothing.
Industry: Lose no time. Be always employed in something useful. Cut off all unnecessary actions.
Sincerity: Use no hurtful deceit. Think innocently and justly; and, if you speak, speak accordingly.
Justice: Wrong none, by doing injuries or omitting the benefits that are your duty.
Moderation: Avoid extremes. Forebear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve.
Cleanliness: Tolerate no uncleanness in body, clothes or habitation.
Chastity: Rarely use venery but for health or offspring; Never to dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another’s peace or reputation.
Tranquility: Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable.
Humility: Imitate Jesus and Socrates.
What do you think of Franklin’s Plan, amigos bonitos? Do you think you could live by these standdards? Would you want to try to live by these standards?

Really. I do like Benjamin Franklin.  BF is a great man.  BF needs more than this copycat.  BF needs innovation.  Be true to BF, be innovative...

At least its sha. Everything else is always scrypt now
