Recently acquried a copy of Ubuntu. Downloaded the client for it (using sources) - 5 minutes - all is well. A little faster then windows tho.
Can you post some walkthru for instalation on Ubuntu, please? I tried that yesterday and totaly failed. Yeah, i'm linux noob. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

can someone tell me how many coins are already in existence out of the 184billion? edit: correct me if I am wrong maybe it is a language thing but it is acutally out of the total 184 trillion coins isn't it? do not get the calculation but the number of coins must be much higher - 2^64-1 https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%282%5E64-1%29

I don't really get it... So who mined it before? There are many references to "community" on bytecoin's page - where exactly is this community? On wiki there is reference to mailing list... But no link to it. https://cryptonote.org/ even gives you a list of developers' names - but googling them gives no real hits. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) If you look at the page soure you can find this: <!-- <a href="http://nd4hymhii2vsjvmp.onion" target="_blank">nd4hymhii2vsjvmp.onion </a> --> Which is page similar to bytecoin.org but with "cryptonote" name instead On reddit a guy registered just to promote this coin: http://www.reddit.com/user/iknowplHas anybody checked source code?

Also it is said that "One coin is divisible down to 8 decimal places (divisible up to 10^8);" so i quess the right amount is 184,46 billion =184 467 440 737, 09551616That is how i understand it, correct me if i am wrong.

There are a lot of uncommon things in this coin lol. Do you have any idea how to count this coins from the start?

Block reward decreases each block according to the formula: BaseReward = (MSupply - A)/2^18, where MSupply = (2^64 - 1) atomic units and 'A' is amount of already generated coins
there are somewhat ~450.000 blocks mined - someone with math skills will have no problems to calculate that - playing around with wolfram alpha I would estimate that quite a ton of coins are already in existence. The first blocks had a massive reward. I am just too badly educated in math to get it into a general formula

I was intrigued with what nakaone said regarding the number of coins in circulation. So I decided to make a research. The formula on the Bytecoin's website was not prepared for easy calculations, so I decided to play around with it. Here are the constants: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Ff1n9S2l.png&t=665&c=L0HSq499l3QjBg) We can omit M to calculate the sequence: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F4CIPQJ3.png&t=665&c=lkM36weT10KEsw) So bn should be like this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FBmjUCbh.png&t=665&c=8suUZu4H_b9JHA) Which leads us to a new representation of the original formula: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F2WnYidi.png&t=665&c=O3v1eKy3fa5S2A) These could be easily used in Excel. Current block n = 447,800 M = 2^64 -1 q = 2^(-18) So there should be around 15 104 430 719 645 400 000 atomic units. Dividing by 10^8 we end up with an aproximate number of current BCNs: 151 044 307 196. I think this number is rather close to the truth considering that the net works for almost 2 years and that estimated number of miners is about 3,000.

DStrange, sounds reasonable. number of coins is ok for two years old currency with active users and they are active: there are txs in each block i randomly checked.

I had a thought while I was doing all this math. We can call the atomic unit " bytoshi" ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I don't. They are like a secret society. Truly anonymous people! Everywhere and nowhere at the same time. I feel as if I am one of them while mining and making giveaway and trading and so on. It's quite a pleasant feeling of belonging to something great ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

DStrange, sounds reasonable. number of coins is ok for two years old currency with active users and they are active: there are txs in each block i randomly checked.
this i also noticed! there are enough transactions going through.. you can check this by typing set_log 2 in the command window anybody already found more references to this coin from the past? i found this guy: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=490also the btc devs know about this coin as they where speaking about it in their irc room. (cannot find the link atm but its in google) this guy also came up, he writes about economics and banking systems.. tinfoilhat anyone? http://www.albertwerner.eu/

BTW according to my calculations, first block reward was 703684.7574 that is only three times the current one. Not so much as it might seem from the beginning
