[ANN][BMR] Bitmonero - a new coin based on CryptoNote technology - LAUNCHED

[thankful_for_today]

If you want a successful anonymous coin without insider instaminer, you need also a gui wallet.

This is true

Current status:

Everything works fine on Linux. We can launch as soon as Windows and Mac binaries will be ready.
In order to make everything as fair as possible I move a launch time  +12 hours. See updated original post.

[slapper]

This is an UI issue only - technically there will be 2^64 - 1 atomic units

This and merged mining with Bytecoin... why do we need this coin?

[Ebrelus]

+12h is good. East Europe can get some sleep now

Will there be any pool for mining?

Thanks for this opportunity to sleep peacefully

No pools yet. There is not open source pool software for CryptoNote ;(

Each good idea must have several independent adoption schemes

Sure. So this is designed to be intentionally a deadbeat one in order to draw some miners to a black hole with no innovation. Thanks for playing. Your idea to self-implode BCN fork is novelty   Might I suggest a dumber name might be more effective?

Someone with an "independent adoption scheme" of 21 million coins will be a better option.

[sorryforthat]

I personally think this is being rushed and for what reason? The name is iffy and doesnt sound like a coin someone would want to own regardless of what it has to offer, no schematics released, no website; all of which makes it seem like it has poor dev. Hell I would have fronted the money for a site if it was needed. We could have built a community to ensure the success of a fork, but I feel you may just want to be the first.

I really like the idea of forking BCN but only if it is done properly!
The code delivered by Bytecoin deserves something proper with correct stats (not only shifting the decimal as biggest change).

I think the most important change is the emissions schedule, but yes, this is rushed. The name alone may doom it.

This coin had no discussion behind it. It was pointed that the block time is too fast beyond the solo mining phase. It was kept without offering reasons. It was pointed out that the name should be voted on. Nope, and a bizarre name resulted.

Perhaps the biggest reason to fork is that it was mined for 2 years without making itself available to the other 99.9999999% of the internet on the clearweb. Yet, we wouldn't be much better if we did a launch without a GUI client and a website. Instead, we were 1 hour from launch without a Windows client, which is actually a step backwards from BCN itself (they released an easy-to-use package with a batch file for nontechnical users).

We need (1) an accessible release with (2) proper marketing (including a different name). Right now this fork doesn't have much of a reason to exist, IMO. There's no reason to release it now and work on these things later, either. All we'd be doing is unfairly mining it ahead of everyone else.

If you look at the BCN forums, you will see that ByteCoin will be having some form of announcement at 16:00. It seems probable that this announcement will lead to a re-launch of BCN under fair conditions, and that this coin here is being developed by one of the BCN devs who has a difference of opinion with the team.

Could thankful_for_today explain his role with BCN?

Also, I totally agree that bitmonero is a poor name that will negatively affect adoption, especially if there are two BCN forks launched at the same time.

[ig0tik3d]

35 min until start?

[thankful_for_today]

Windows build is ready. Mac build isn't. Anybody can build for mac?

[thankful_for_today]

IRC might be helpful for a launch ..

Reschedule for later date?

IRC is good, yes.
Looks like there is no so much mac-only users here. We will start in few minutes.
As far as I see on my mac it isn't very easy to build this for mac: there is a lot of things to fix in code.

[shekelsteingoyberg2]

I don't think you should launch the coin without a GUI..

OK . . what should we expect? Are you going to update the OP, post at the end, new thread, or direct to a website?

I've updated an OP: sources are on git, binaries are on MEGA.
Height is 5, difficulty is 27908. This is a good start.

This is bullshit. Does not compile on OSX. Though I can fix the malloc error (and the following error), the errors get increasing complex afterwards.

Looks like this is a known problem with Cryptonote. Anyway I will accept patch for OsX into the repo as soon as somebody will fix this.
