[ANN] [HVC] Heavycoin - Ultra-secure, Decentralized Block Reward Voting, Fast

[incin]

Can anyone correct the total supplied coins on http://coinmarketcap.com/ for HVC?

Getting market cap for HVC means initially parsing the blockchain and keeping an eye on the rewards continually.  Due to the voting, there isn't a straightforward "reward = formula(blockheight)" as there is with most other coins.  Might be good for the heavycoin site to offer some basic GET APIs for this sort of information, as it's already got all that parsed.

Good point man (and nice find fengkaitj, I hadn't noticed) - incin and I have been talking to the devs about exactly this but for a different purpose, latest from Keccak:

"I think that's the only reliable way [in reference to hosting a version of heavycoind somewhere].  Our website is just a pages.github account and has no back end code.  It only has javascript client that you download to your browser, which connects to a heavycoin instance we have in the cloud.  we cannot open up general access to that one instance cause its a seed node and needs to be highly secure"

I'm looking in to what it would take to host a separate instance at the moment and open up this and a few other calls that incin is after.

If anyone has experience doing this let me know.

(oh, and side note, I've also PM'ed Gliss @ Coinmarketcap to let them know what's happening - here's their thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=199685.0)

Yeah, from the first post there, it seems likely that they just scrape the HTML; that'll work, too, except for when it doesn't   I can fully understand not wanting to open up the node itself to calls - thus the basic GET API for stats, e.g. total supply, current block reward.. that sort of thing in an immutable (or as immutable as possible) format.  Makes it easier for third parties to integrate that information in their services, and leaves devs free to adjust the webpage HTML as they see fit.

On a different topic, I'm trying to get Heavycoin added to https://apps.facebook.com/wpmultitipping/

Could I get a few people to send a friend request to https://www.facebook.com/mumbly.heavycoin so I can start a group?

Cheers,

Another alternative is zhpool already displays a lot of api data via their dashboard. Not sure if they could or would be willing to host/release an api from that.

Ok - it seems like the funds are still there.

I've just sent another 1,000HVC to the wallet: http://heavycoinnews.com/files/wallet.rar

First person to guess the passphrase is free to raid the funds.

The clue for the passphrase is: "a word that is 45.72 centimeters long"
To confirm, the phrase is not "cubit". It is one word, but it is more than twice the number of letters.

HVC was added to a new exchange platform today https://www.51btc.com/

It seems someone still remember the coin.

I've just found out that someone already got it

seriously?? (can't check it yet because of unsynced wallet)

what was the correct answer?

[NeuroticFish]

I am also curious about the correct answer

[TheRealSteve]

For all we know somebody tried a dictionary attack   Hopefully it was somebody here and they will pop up, though.

On a different subject - zhpool's hash rate has been on a climb, while 1gh's has been on a decline, and zhpool now exceeds 1gh's hash rate by a fair margin: ~12.7Ghash/s vs ~5.3Ghash/s.

Me too:-)

Yep - it's gone.

I'll give the person some time to post here and tell us how they figured it out, otherwise I'll post the answer later on today.

Ok the answer is imminent - lets find some runner up winners - post your answer and wallet addresses here.

"a word that is 45.72 centimeters long"

clue to make this much easier:

45.72cm = 18 inches = 1 and a half foot

Cubit.


Edit:  Just noticed you already said it's not cubit.

Hey guys,

Just back to the conversation yesterday about coin market cap and the HVC supply.

I've been playing around with launching a HVC node on a vps and exposing some live stats like the current coin supply.

It's a little crappy at the moment, but proof of concept is there, I just need to tidy up the code and expose more methods.

I'm happy to keep this node active for third parties like coin market cap so that they can show the correct supply.

If there are any other methods in particular you think might be useful let me know.

Let me know what you think.

Hey GiorgosK,

They're around, but focused on coding tasks - I'll point them toward your post

Quick edit - uh, wow that's a beautiful hotel - care to tell us more about the hotel/locations? Either way, bookmarked
