[ANN] ¤ DMD Diamond 3.0 | Scarce ¤ Valuable ¤ Secure | PoS 3.0 | Masternodes 65%

There should be some priority given to a wallet readouts of "Staking [IS/NOT] enabled";"Current Stake XX%";" X Diamonds until Stake XX% ";" If Stake starts 00:00GMT today, your stake in 30 days will be: XXX DMD" 

Having that type of exacting info to the user would sort 90% of your user-end questions at the moment.  Users of the coin/software shouldn't have to forum dive to derive meaningful understanding about what their money is doing at a given moment, that drives confidence down.  Less user questions gives you devs more time to sort out all that "long-neglected code" without needing to be glued to forums all day.

Very true. However, some errors from the past need to be fixed first. Some sins done by who knows whom and when

This thread has become annoying and exhausting, offering no value with the current conversation.

[HR]

im sorry if to be able explain u the reason behind the coin design desicions maybe give reason for another questions

but i will try my best to answer follow up questions

regarding the diamond coin spec design i am the expert and i am able answer every question

A quite well written, very understandable and informative post deserving of an expert.

I'm very much looking forward to follow-up questions. 

. . . and learning more, of course.   

[Jacques de Molay]

Good job on the coin, had a look into it one day and like the direction.

Keep up the good work.

[polanskiman]

I think its caused all these coding problems to be honest.     I still watch the thread and the same problems exist.  This cryptonit whatever is killing the coin.  Its not we want a proper written reply but the deflection and smart arsed remarks to genuine questions  is the problem.  Its a cant be bothered attitude. 

They could get all the trust back and more if they left the communication to the forum to a native english speaker - as thats your audience mainly.

Price dropped to half after a massive dump - probably the early miners who had such a low difficulty from the get go after the code change to groetl.

No, the problem are smart arsed accusations of us not doing the job, which we're clearly doing (behind the scenes). None of the Diamond team members whoever it is now and was in the past got a single Diamond out of it. We've invested a lot of our own money into infrastructure upkeep and other measures that allowed this coin to survive for so long. The amount of time and effort we've already put into it and are intending to put is well worth 5%. For now and foreseeable future we all work not for "skimmed" Diamonds, but because we believe in an idea. Do you (and I'm responding here generally) equally criticise mining pools for applying 2% fees while their work is limited to providing the static service?   

It's the smart arsed comments that are the direct cause of 'whatever' attitude and for sure are not helpful. Cryptonit is doing his best to respond to whatever question he is asked. Bear in mind that we don't always have answers and need to consult one another, so don't expect him to be an expert in every single issue. Be realistic people, we are just humans.

WayForward, what you think is your own opinion, and my opinion is quite contrary to yours, it's cryptonit that makes this coin alive and dumping on him some sort of responsibility for coding problems is just ridiculous in my view.  There are no coding issues at the moment and developmental and testing process goes smoothly as never before.

If you don't appreciate more direct contact with the developers (that you have here) that's fine. We can resort to making announcements only, so the coin can be judged on its own merits.

You are making a point here, but so do those who have asked legitimate questions (like I have done in the past) or even given legitimate recommendations. They were either brushed aside, not answered or whatever simply because Mr. Cryptonit is unable to accept constructive criticism. In fact he likes to answer questions that have been answered dozen of times, not sure what's the purpose.

As I said earlier, and this is the third time I mention this but a clear list of who is who would give people a clear understanding of who does what and what their background is. You could post it in the OP so that it is clear to everyone. If DMD team have nothing to hide and strongly believes in this coin (as has been regurgitated over and over) then this would give the opportunity to people to trust those working in the background. Trust comes with transparency.

Someone doing its best is sometimes not enough. You might not like me saying this but I don't see how not understanding half of what Cryptnotit says in his posts is helping the coin. As much as I respect people and his role and efforts in answering people's comments, I have politely asked him if he could do an effort and all I got was a condescending egocentric answer. I also made some recommendations regarding the wallet. Not a thank you, not even an acknowledgement. So yes people complain and that's legitimate too. Your coin will only work if people send their hashes your way. Remember that.

Yes there are smart asses comments sometimes and yes some people are here to troll, but as I said earlier, instead of answering to those perhaps it would be better to publish updated info in the OP, refrain from answering to trolls and answer those questions that are new, helpful or still unanswered, in a polite fashion and IF possible in a understandable English. I, myself am not a native English speaker but I do an effort.

Beyond the English, what is more important though is professionalism. That implies, and I repeat, not falling for other's dumb comments and keeping things straight.

This is not a personal attack but a comment from someone who wishes to believe in DMD. I would appreciate some respect in return and constructive answers. If I did not care I wouldn't waste my time writing this.

Think about it equally.

[m5j0r]

The 5% are salary. They seem to go to waste.

Recruit that polanski guy as community manager and danbi for tech stuff. (I'm missing someone else really helpful probably)
Or me to update that first post and the website. Really, anyone could do better in terms of overview, updates, guides etc.

Most clones don't have that as well but you wanna be better than these, right?

Just my thoughts.

I am pleased to announce that I have written the first draft for Diamond DMD.  Please say if any information is incorrect.  Also I need help completing it.  This section will be included in the book (Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative") in the summer.  Any donations will be highly appreciated towards making the publishing a reality.

Thank you.  Do you know when trading began on Coins-e?

[m5j0r]

No, but I just noticed the date you put for cryptsy.
It's in the future?^^

[cryptonit]

@tyke

add exchanges

add that its the first coin that use total coin amount triggers instead of block number triggers
to be able follow the coin rollout plan no matter how many people mint

and the estimate coin rollout time until 4.3 million are reached is 30+ years

all that time it stays a POW/POS hybrid security coin

edit:

i did read again through ur paper and it missed the info that since groestl actiove POS 50% is active too
which is also pretty unique to have max POS and max POW active simultan active in a 1.5 years heavy coin rollout phase (in this around 1.5 years we will reach total coins 1500000 ~35% of max coins)
(which it not now because a bug in pos minting required a fixed wallet release) but in theory it was the plan

when trying to send coins with my 2.0.1 wallet i get the error that the coins i want to send exceed my balance , however they dont , how do i fix that ?

Change the amount so that the amount you are sending INCLUDES the network transaction fee amount.
So if you are sending 1.12345678 and you only have 1.12345678 and the transaction fee is usually around 0.001...

So you would send 1.12245678 and the network transaction fee will "eat" that 0.001, emptying your wallet...or in the case that you had...you were trying to send just a tad more than you have (inadvertently) so the wallet stopped you from going negative, which is a good thing.

So you should DECREASE your transaction amount by the amount the DMD network charges (fee) to make the transaction.

Backup your wallet and reinstall? I haven't mined DMD in awhile and don't have a DMD wallet installed currently. I will look into installing the new wallet and see if I can help out a little more.

Maybe someone else will chime in???

[m5j0r]

The wallet doesnt seem to work with POS yet.
The "stake" doesnt show up. I got coins in for more than 30 days and it won't "stake".

Any light on this?

[johndec2]

^^^ Short version.  They have to introduce a new wallet version for staking but they can't get it to work.

[m5j0r]

Thanks! Efficient answer

Thanks! Efficient answer

And somewhat wrong.

Do you have any reservebalnce setting? Diamond.conf file in the folder where wallet.dat is? What is in there - don't post passwords please

What wallet software you use? From where it came, etc? You may have some problem with the wallet. The safest option is to backup your wallet.dat file somewhere safe, remove everything, reinstall, resync and copy it back (the start the wallet again).

Just for information:
Network fee is proportional to the size of the transaction you create. If your wallet contains many small denominations (a typical solo miner's would contain many 1 DMD amounts), when sending larger amount, it has to recombine all those in a single transaction. The minimum fee is 0.001 DMD. For each 1kb, it is increased with that much. Sending 100 amounts (or 100 DMD if your wallet has 1 DMD "coins") results in about 0.012 DMD in fees. It is unlikely you will have lots of smaller than 1 DMD amounts, unless you do a lot of transactions and create "change" (which is one of those 1 DMD minus the fees). Change is first used for fees, though.
These things might change in future, but this is how the current (and the one before, etc) wallet works.
