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

[everybodyclapyohands]

okaynow,

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I didn't necessarily see you as grouping me in with them, but felt the need to defend myself anyway because this is a common concern.

FYI, something we will be announcing officially in a few days: MyWl.lt has a payment API coming in May which will of course support any coins on the site.  This will allow for secure replacement of a daemon for things like dice games, or full payment processing for any commerce site. Only pre-approved sites can use the API, and it's built on years of experience developing secure financial APIs, so there won't be any funny business. This could be a big help to MINT if you get voted in.

Too many people want everything for free here.

BTW what is the progress of the minting Android wallet? It's been a while since there has been an update.

Just so you know, my pledge in return for the minting and battery features still stands. But I'm not giving the reward until the app is on my phone and I can test it.

Yes, an update on the Android wallet would be nice.

I'm looking forward to when the android developer gets 5,000,000 Mint from the 700,000,000 Mint pre-mine.

Its 10,000,000 from the Dev, and about another 2.5 mil from the community so far. If you would like to donate the official address can be found in beaverslayer's message here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=450381.msg6414849#msg6414849

I was wondering about the mint wallet for android too, seems like news about it stopped a few days ago.

Disconnecting 84k blocks doesn't seem logical to me, I think you're either using 1.6 or 1.7 and your wallet switches back and forth on POW+POS blockchain (1.6-) and the POS-

I've been using "version" : "v1.0.0.0" since the very beginning, I will update it now thanks

This right here is a very good reason why every wallet should have an annoying message that appears when you open your wallet to inform you that an upgrade is required...just like Windows and FireFox and all other types of software. We are talking about peoples money here, and I suspect that if this was a bank, they would inform you right away that you need to upgrade.

Can we get someone to implement this into the next wallet upgrade please?

Mintcoin is #1

Mintcoin is not a bank though, and really playing around with these clients is beta testing.  This is what it says on the "about mintcoin" selection in the help menu of the client; to whit:

"This is experimental software. If you don't treat it as such, you're likely to put an eye out!"

 

The point of cryptocurrency is to have granular control of your personal finances so taking responsibility for keeping up with updates etc by checking in the community on their own is something people will have to get used to.

That's great! I haven't been lurking for awhile, I remember when it was 5,000,000 Bounty for Android Wallet. I guess 10,000,000 Mint is more in line with current valuations.

Android wallet has released it, now can use it？

I understand that Mintcoin, nor any other crypto is a bank, what I'm saying is that even though it is Beta software, the whole idea of Beta, is to allow people to use it and give recommendations for improvements, as well as report bugs and such to the people that are responsible for the upgrading and development of such software.

As you and I both know, pretty much everyone that is involved in crypto's has more than one wallet that they use for altcoins. I myself have over 15 wallets, some I use regularly, others are just sitting and holding coins. It's a chore at times to keep track of all the updates to wallets all the time. If Mintcoin were to come out with a wallet that informs the owner that an upgrade is ready to be downloaded, this would just add so much more to the viability of our coin.

If I hadn't seen on Twitter that Reddcoin is going to be changing everything about their coin soon, and their wallet is going to have to be upgraded, I would never have know about it. I don't frequent the Reddcoin forums or Reddit any longer, the same as Dogecoin.

It's something that I think would be a great addition to our wallet, and would make it better than all the others.

seem im not minting coins after upgrading to wallet 1.9.1.

stake icon status is "Not minting because you dont have mature coins"  However i have minted plenty of coins before upgrading the wallet, and I have not moved any coins recently. wallet is unlocked.

Can anyone give advise?

Code:


{
"version" : "v1.9.1.0",
"protocolversion" : 60006,
"walletversion" : 60000,
"balance" : 332939.63232300,
"newmint" : 0.00000000,
"stake" : 0.00000000,
"blocks" : 299470,
"moneysupply" : 18941662370.91911316,
"connections" : 12,
"proxy" : "",
"ip" : "[i]hidden[/i]",
"difficulty" : 0.06147789,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1393760875,
"keypoolsize" : 101,
"paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
"unlocked_until" : 0,
"errors" : ""
}

Math usually doesnt lie. If it says that you dont have mature coins, then you probably dont have mature coins.
If you need additional proof, then open coin control window and see the date you have on the oldest incoming transactions. If its less than 20 days, then you dont have mature coins.

Just wait for 3 years.

I guess the math does lie because Ive had 220,000 coin in the wallet since 9/3/14

Does the new wallet reset coinage?  I'm really stuck on this one guys.

[Kergekoin]

Could you make a screenshot of this input in coin control window? Are you sure that you have not reset this input age?

All i have done is update the wallet to 1.9.1

I have not deleted anything from appdata, only deleted only mintcoin dir and replaced.

Transactions page is not the right place to look for your inputs age. Read what i wrote. You need to open coin control window, sort by conformations or date and see if you have coins old enough.
Transactions only show incoming and outgoing transactions, not inputs. For example, if you have input of 100K coins, you can reset this input age by transferring only 1 coin, if that 1 coin is chosen from this 100K coin input.
I repeat. Transaction page does not report coin input age!

I assume this is what your referring to?



So according to this coinage is under 20 day?

Sorry, but can you explain a little better what is happening here? I just want to understand the POS process.
