One of the perks of working at an IT company: I work with guys who have forgotten more than I'll ever learn. Just had a discussion about the first project with a buddy at work who is a high level tech. Each time I have these conversations I learn about something I hadn't previously thought about. There's a lot that goes into building a website that accesses Counterwallet in a decentralized manner. I'm glad the world has plenty of smart people  |

It looks like we have a working Block Explorer! =) I got an email from BlockExperts saying it was up and running; http://blockexperts.com/888It will take a while longer to fully load the block chain and sync up but is looking pretty good. It still needs paying for but rather than paying for it directly I figured I'd start the donations rolling for the official donations address so it can be paid from there. So, I sent BTC0.1 (TxId: 3398278d7ede920d13a8bb9ee1e0ee043b22c0219d109407faf5ceb772d8a13b). We'll need at least one more small donation before we can pay for it (I forgot to add some for the transaction fee). This explorer should also have a Rich List when it's synched which is something we didn't have before, that will be interesting to see! /SquidsIn |
Since getting into Cryptocurrency I've had many bags, all but two have varied over time. Those are the two I see in the mirror where my eyes once shone.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=960933.msg10507881#msg10507881Excellent work Squids. Thanks for updating the process Robert. Did they say total cost? NM you said trans fees was the balance for explorer? OP updated. Donate BTC to the address below by Saturday February 28th. Your name will be added to the OCTO Wall of Fame and the 50,000 OCTO Bounty will be split between the donators. As soon as you donate to the address please follow Squids footsteps and post the transaction ID with the amount you sent. If we receive more than 15 unique screen names who have donated .1BTC or more, then I will up the 50,000 OCTO bounty to 100,000. .1BTC x 15 users = 1.5 BTC. All funds will be used to pay for block explorer, website and BTC fees to transfer OCTO out to users during the burn. Any left over BTC will be used to pay out another bounty. I will keep zero BTC after the block explorer, website and transfer of OCTO is complete. The remaining BTC, if any, will be immediately offered in another bounty along with some more OCTO. Donation Address: 1fff2DwPLF3gYCgTL8HBNsLkmJfrhn5rd https://blockchain.info/address/1fff2DwPLF3gYCgTL8HBNsLkmJfrhn5rd

I've got 67 888coins in my pool account. Would like to get rid of them. I know it's worth nothing, but if someone wants a tiny donation, send me an address where I can send them to.

Sure, if you do not want them, then send here: 8HruqzfQHFFViPSxobCSsCRsvV8LdcA8uR Thanks. No time playing around with them, currently cleaning the balance sheet. Just requested the payment, if it works (not sure with this pool), you should receive them in the next 15 minutes. Good luck with the further development, community. Edit: Payment has been sent, Tx ce9777bde3e53be19404357382175fdf5365a46c73fdb8aadf9cefd628f8e9c5 |

octo wallet is now back online @bittrex.com
Please withdraw your funds. We will be removing the wallet by 1/30. We've put safegaurds in place so a double withdrawal can't happen, however, it may mean certain withdrawals will get stuck. If that happens to you, please open a ticket with us.
thanks,
richie@bittrex
Alright... I've given as much leeway as I can on this wallet. I am shutting down the wallet in the next 24 hours. Please withdraw your funds if you haven't already. We have been constantly communicating with this community so I hope this isn't going to come as a surprise to anyone. Once you guys figure out next steps, please feel free to reach out to us whether its an XCP asset or something else. Thanks, richie@bittrex |

It would be interesting to know at this stage how much is definitely not getting burned. |

I had a 1/30 shutoff date but gave it a couple weeks incase people missed it.... There is nothing more painful then having to take a wallet out of storage. As for the balance: "balance" : 5266905.88522253 That is the current wallet balance. thanks richie@bittrex |

Thanks for the update!
I say that everyone has had months and plenty of chances. I personally am glad that the large number is still sitting at Bittrex. The lower the number we burn to OCTO the better it is for the new asset. We only need to hold a small % compared to the total that will be distributed. I was thinking between 20-30 million burned. If 5 million out of 40 million are still at Bittrex then we are already close to that 30 million.

Nah we will prolly announce it soon. And honestly, I dunno if filling out the form early makes a difference because if someone has multiple receiving addresses and have received coins to multiple addresses, they may not know the sending address they are using to the burn address until they send it.
Is there a way to send all Octocoin from one address? I mean I have like 189000 octocoins in a wallet but when you check individual addresses it breaks it down into which address received which coins.
The main thing is once you have sent your coins to the burn address when we announce it you input which address you sent from and what your counterwallet address is to send then OCTO back to and how many was sent so we know how many to trade out for.
Also, we will want to do this in the least amount of transactions possible. So, anyone mining Octocoin really needs to wait as late as possible to the deadline so they can send all Octocoin in 1 transaction. I mean it's not a major issue but we would like as least amount of transactions as possible.
There will be a deadline but we will work with people if they experience some type of technical difficultly on a case by case basis.
I also think that we will only have a 2 week burn period. There will be no need for a month. It's not like it's a huge coin with a huge community and 100 million coins. I think 2 weeks is plenty of time to get the word out and burn.
If we do and we are even remotely close we may call the burn and manually take care of anyone who couldn't participate. Octocoin isn't really on many peoples radar so i don't see any of these things happening.

Pick one of the addresses in your wallet and send everything you have to that address. You may find that the transaction size is too large, particularly if you mined and moved a lot of small amounts to your wallet, if that's the case you'll have to break it down into smaller chunks and do it iteratively until you can send the whole lot to one of your addresses in one transaction. For example, if you have 10k and it won't shift in one transaction, try moving 5k then 8k then the whole 10k. if 5k is too much for on transaction then go for 2 or 3k first. Each time you do this you'll incur a small transaction fee but I doubt you'd pay more than 1 x 888 in total. |
