[BCN] Bytecoin. Secure, private, untraceable since 2012

So I'm confused... is this the same Bytecoin with the green logo that was called an exact Bitcoin copy?

no, this bytecoin was a bitcoin fork/copy

this is different, first bytecoin.

no, this bytecoin was a bitcoin fork/copy

So why do they have the same name?

this is different, first bytecoin.

Uh... what?

Uh... what?

http://bytecoin.org is the first and original Bytecoin.

Every other Bytecoin came later and chose to have the same name; maybe unintentionally.

There is no maybe about it. If this coin in fact did come first, the later uses of the name were quite clearly unintentional.

No relevant web site at bytecoin.org existed at the time the other clone(s) were created, nor is there any evidence of information available  about this bytecoin anywhere else.  The current bytecoin.org is around six months old. Any claims about what happened prior to that are thus far 100% unsupported.

and any claims about what didn't happen prior to that are 100% unsupported as well.

If we could find the originators of the BTE bytecoin, we could ask them if they were aware of this bytecoin. But is that really worth the effort? There is zero evidence they would have been aware of it. The lack of available evidence despite several people looking for it is evidence (though inconclusive) that such evidence does not exist. 

The weight of the evidence very strongly points away from anyone choosing the same name as this coin after and intentionally doing so.

The coins will get momentum based on their features and public acceptance; others will just die, so their name-conflict doesn't matter much in the log run.
At least that's my point of view.

Hi, I have enough of trying so I ask :

Why can't I refresh my wallet ?

Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon (http://localhost:8081). Daemon either is not started or passed wrong port. Please, make sure that daemon is running or restart the wallet with correct daemon address.

My client is launched, synchronized and the blockchain has been saved. So why ?
I stop my firewall, antivirus, nothing.
I can make Monero, Fantomcoin & Quazarcoin working perfectly on both Windows and Linux.

Yes of course. I said the client but I meant the daemon.

haven't seen that one yet then, as long as the daemon is synced all should be good.

It must be a port problem, how do I specify the port on both daemon and wallet if I don't want to use 8081 ?

I encountered something along those lines a few days ago. I updated to latest binaries and it synced fine.

Try downloading latest binaries from their site and refreshing the wallet again.

VOTE NOW!

I voted for the new bytecoin logo ... for myself 
Unfortunatly, right now pipipipopopo's proposal is in front.   
I also like his design. Clean and simple!

However, as I already mentioned in another post, pipipipopopo's approach IMO is not unique enough. It is to similar to the bitcoin logo. Bytecoin
needs something more unique. Especially, as bytecoin is struggling with this naming confusion (BTE and BCE).
I'm just wondering which thoughts people may associate with a coin named "bytecoin" which name is similar to "bitcoin" and even has a logo similar to bitcoin. IMO, using a similar logo may imply, that these developers of bytecoin don't have own ideas. Similar name and same logo. People may think its is just a stupid clone, which does not need further attention.

So IMO it is not a good idea to have a similar logo. We need to, at least, emphasize that we are different. Starting with the first impression - the logo.

DStrange, you should add https://cryptonote.exchange.to/market/bcn/btc under exchanges. It's basic but very much functional.

By the way, did C-Cex confirm that they would add BCN? I've only seen official mentions from Comkort.

I will try to find out about C-Cex today!

BCN community - vote for our logo right now!

36 hours left!

I like the style of pipipipopopo's, it's bold, but maybe too much so, the B itself doesn't seem to have a unicode character for it. There is the barred ᴃ which is unused. I actually like it a lot in serif- it looks almost like the Bitcoin symbol turned 90 degrees: http://unicode-table.com/en/1D03/
