[ANN] [888] [SCRYPT] OctoCoin ◦ The Power of Eight ◦ Don't Blink

[SlientBit]

Ok, a small announcement for today. I activated the stratum server at 888.fedaykin.us, I need everyone to switch over to that one instead of the one at 888us.fedaykin.us. I'll give it 24 hours since there's not alot of people mining at this point. After that, I'm going to change the DNS for 888US to redirect to 888. The reason for doing this is I'm clearing out one of the servers, getting ready to test some gaming scripts and I want it completely isolated just in case there's a security breach (more on my end than anything, since I'm going to be playing with heavily modified game scripts). When everything's said and done, I want to be able to offer gaming alongside every pool, but need to make sure it's secure, and give each game its very own wallet, etc.

Done, now mining on 888.fedaykin.us

Would be nice if the devs give us some updates more often

So you will be able to play games on your mining rig as it mines??

Well, the idea is just some simple gambling games.. I've found one that I'm working on modifying a bit but it's not working yet. I'm still learning with PHP, and pretty busy, so getting it going is going to take a while I think. In the future I'd like for every one of my pools to have some sort of game attached to it, where you can gamble your newly minted coins and give me a chance to win them from you :b

Even if it's not very useful, it does provide one way to "spend" your coins. Might not be good, though, if you're a gambling addict!

click on the transaction tab in your wallet then right click over transaction and select "Show transaction details"... Then post it here
Also, if you just submitted the transaction sometimes it takes a little longer than it should, however if it's been 30+ minutes it's not normal

[Radi777]

Well well well...what do you know...I was right about the price 

Not if you bought at 800 and sold at 1300, look at the charts

No, I meant I was right about my prediction that it won't reach 3000 satoshi...didn't even come close to it
If you bought at 800 and sold @ 1300 good job...i didn't buy anything but kept selling from mining, most of my sells where in the range 900-1100...i haven't sold below 800 until a few hours ago , i felt bad people buying at 1000+ but hey I warned them not to buy at above 800 LOL

[Stonerboy]

Now you're right, and as long as there are no changes you will keep right i think, no tweets and no updates here make some people believe that this coin is maybe dead, so they sell off, thats normal...

[Radi777]

Yeap, devs better get here and boost the morale of the people hahah
either way i am happy, if price goes up obviously i would be happier, but the price right now doesn't bother me

Right so far, but that's a short time frame.  The coin is only 2 weeks old.  I have 3% of all Octocoins and I won't be blinking, happy to keep buying and topping that up at these low prices.  I have a good feeling about this coin, the last time I had as much confidence in a new coin was in the early days of Auroracoin when I was solomining blocks of it  

There's something about this one...

I could be wrong of course but give it at least 3 months before writing it off.

3% off all Octocoins in the moment, or off all 88.888.888?

And i hope you are right, but most miners see no activity of the devs here or on twitter... So maybe giving a short update every 2 days would be better i think...

I only meant the prediction for up to a month, it's impossible to predict what happens in the future..it could be 100000 satoshi or 1 lol no one knows.
3% nice...you will make profit no matter what happens unless it drops below 10 satoshi lol
How much did you make on Auroracoin?

ok here it is

[frameLAlife]

People are selling too early, as soon as it's mined it's dumped.  In the last 24 hours I turned 3k Octo into 15k just by playing the margins between buy and sell orders on CryptoRush.

Mining at the moment isn't really profitable so all those selling so low are either killing the coin or filling somebody else's bag for when it takes off, all at their own expense.

I do agree it would be nice to start seeing more of the dev's and hearing more of their plans but sometimes these things take time.  Still, at least if nothing else, you can tell it's not a pump and dump scam as given the current price and volume it's not yet reached a point where the setup / mining cost and effort are justified by what it's yielded so far.

Agreed. People are selling way to early. People think this is the final price lol? People are dumping two weeks into a coins life? Even after a somewhat fair launch, a limited cap on the coin, SOME decent, consistent feedback from the devs (we all wish it was more) and not even waiting to see the timelines for services to launch or the update on the website?

By all means, it is a risk to wait and see what happens but to get in on a coin with a cap this early and make 888 coins per block and the difficulty low is rare. Most coins with this low of a cap have really low block rewards, like 100 coins or less per block. You had a chance to hit a gold mine if you are patient and ride it out. Notice I said chance. Yes this coin could fizzle but at least with no real large pre mine and no exchange to dump at early on you know it wasn't a pump n dump from the devs. They had no place to dump. As decent as the volume has been at cryptorush it's not real volume. It's not the volume of mintpal or cryptsty.

So keep selling your coins early. I'll keep buying them up. I'll keep trading on the margins and multiplying way over what i mined at 1000 KH/s.

I know one thing. If the coin needs to be sold this low you will have plenty of chances later on to do it. There is no indication that there are major technical problems with the coin ( minus two posts here where people haven't had confirmations it appears). There is no way the devs pumped and dumped. The devs have said they are updating the website to educate the general public on how crypto works, etc. The devs have promised announcements around the middle of April regarding what the services will be and timelines will be posted on the website to track the releases of the services. I don't really know why people would risk dumping to make their guaranteed $3-$200 a day at these minimum payout prices. Did you honestly think the launch would be one of these gimmick coin launches where the price jumped to $2-$5 the first few days? If so everyone would have dumped then and the coin would prolly die quickly.

I am willing to risk the amount of time mining that this coin will have slow rises based on the need to purchase the coin for the services. When users start purchasing the coin for services they do not care what the price is for how many octo. They only know that they need $20 worth of octo for whatever it is they are going to be using it for (such as the crowdfunding idea). That's where large stake holders will make real profit. When all these users come to buy we will control the prices then and profit. I don't understand why someone would want to risk selling early for less than a penny when down the road you may have the power to demand a few cents to a few dollars per coin.

I guess this coin really isn't pump and dump enough for the average miner or trader. I guess octo should have had a billion coins and lots of weird technical gimmicks with 75,000 coin block rewards that we were going to airdrop a 88% premine over the 88 poorest countries in the world so that we could be a successful exciting coin. We'll see what happens. It could fade or fizzle but if you were going to gamble on this coin from the start and fold your hand this early, you really had a lot of other options to mine and dump early that would have given you a better return. In fact, AirDropCoin launches next Saturday. Good mining and good luck!

You gotta talk to dev about that message them. There is another guy named Alex with same problem. I can't see the transaction id on the block explorer.

[frameLAlife]

I wonder if these issues could be related to the update on the wallet. It wasn't a mandatory update. Which version of the wallet are you two guys with problems using?

[frameLAlife]

guys you have a faucet..why do you keep it empty?

http://coinok.pw/faucet/888/

We don't control the faucet. The owner of the website does. In fact it's been up for about 1 day. We just spent btc buying votes to get the faucet up and running so please be patient. The faucet fund will grow as this community starts to see returns on their investment buying or mining the coin.

For now I have donated 100 OctoCoin to the faucet and 50 to the dev of the site. I have no idea at what rate the faucet releases coins. The balance is showing 100 already though.
