[ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained]

[navarthelol]

It is starting on Cryptsy today.

I dont understand why people would trade with cryptsy. It kinda sucks, I remember I deposited 0.01 BTC once and it took over a week to arrive LOL. I actually believe I will read about cryptsy on the bitcoin reddit one day like "big exchange goes under and takes peoples coins with it"

Okay guys i need some help,
when i try to open my wallet i get :
"
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application;s support team for more information.
"


What is the problem here ? How to fix that ?

I tried several different things to fix this error.
Ultimately here's what seems to have worked for me ... time will tell:

• open %APPDATA% folder ... rename MintCoin folder
• create new MintCoin folder
• copy backup wallet.dat file into the new MintCoin folder
• create mintcoin.conf file to include rpc information (see below) mintcoind will throw an error if it's not there
• start mintcoind.exe from the command line and let it rebuild the local blockchain database
• wait
• wait some more
• wait just a little more
• close mintcoind.exe with a Ctrl+C
• start mintcoin as usual

Code:

rpcuser=somemintcoinuser
rpcpassword=putyourfavoritepasswordhere

Hope this helps...

Fully agree - I only use Mintpal nowadays - half the fees and it just works. However, be aware guys that these sort of buy orders are what they do BEFORE the pump - that is they buy them up now and then get others (fools mostly) to pump it up for them in order to dump their coins for a tidy return - leaving others holding a bag full of coins they paid 20% or higher more for.

Hello Mintcoin thread. ...Realistically, where do you see the price of this coin in a few months? (I know I will get biased answers, try to keep it to a minimum please).

[coolbeans94]

20 satoshi per month sounds reasonable.

I used to use coinmarket.io and Mintpal. Now, I only use coinmarket.io because coinmarket.io has gone down. The weird thing was, I used to like coinmarket.io much more than Mintpal, but now I have no choice.

I have been trying to add another wallet to a computer and the Mac wallet hasn't been working on the website for days. Is there another wallet  I can use made by the developers?

MINT is at 31 satoshi on coinmarket.io right now.

[roguenine]

ugh. so glad I sold all of my Blackcoin at 680 sat 

[Crindon]

31 satoshi on coinmarket.io right now.

Those numbers are wrong. coinmarket.io is down, their markets are frozen. It's been like that for two weeks.

The trading in coinmarket.io was halted because it was hacked.

My mint wallet has stopped minting since 3/11. I have updated to the current wallet and still nothing. It is unlocked. Any ideas? I found this in the debug log, not sure if it is relevant.

Hmm, sounds like some sort of corruption may be at fault here. Checksum implies that one or more files aren't the size that the program expects them to be. I think it's worth replacing all current Mintcoin files with new ones (except wallet.dat ofc)

Give this a shot:
1. Close down your wallet
2. Backup the wallet.dat file somewhere safe.
3. Delete all Mintcoin files on your PC - the QT.exe folder as well as the data in %appdata%\roaming\Mintcoin\... (assuming you're on Windows)
4. Download a new copy of the Mintcoin wallet 1.5
5. Run the exe, wait for it to open and then close it again.
6. Copy your backed-up wallet.dat into the %appdata% folder
7. Restart your client and see if it syncs.

As the coins haven't moved this won't reset their age, as well as ruling out 99% of files potentially corrupted.

This thread is really starting to dry up - along with the trading volume of our coin. I'm getting slightly worried here. Even without the pumpers we need considerably more volume than we have currently - if the price is to stabilize yet alone increase. Why has there been such a drop off in interest? I know the minting process has been overly difficult for many to understand and set up but this is not looking good. We need to simplify the minting process - we can't have user after user complaining that it isn't minting or that their POS blocks aren't confirming - its extremely bad publicity. It's a great coin....but so was Karma.....

I have the feeling, that this correlates with the minting. There is no movement on generating coins and so there is no movement on the market. Sadly it seems a coin needs flucturation on the generation side to have a fluid market. I said that in earlier posts already, that I expected the coin to stale out. Only thing that could change this was either a bigger event on the coin's popularity or a drastical change in the specs. If you can just leave the coins lazy in your wallet, nothing will happen.

ok, I did this. I now show some "stake" in my wallet. But now it is stuck on block 109242, and my debug log has this crap...
