[AC] AsiaCoin | Pure PoS | 100% Interest

[ORiN]

around a month ago Asiacoin status was as described below in detail:
1.no working wallet
2.no developer at all
3.no github page
4.no development since almost a year
5.no active internet page
6.no active forum
7.no active social media no twitter no facebook no reddit and so on
8.no active irc
9.no marketing work since almost a year
10.no marketing plan at all - no whitepaper - no strategy
11.no volume on exchanges

now it has changed in points 1, 2, 3
maybe it is why price is now 80 % up and some volume up?

Actually, many altcoins are like that. As long as there is some form of work on the altcoin, volume and appreciation in price follow since people will begin to speculate.

The website is still www.thecoin.asia though we definitely need more content. I don't really see much benefit from social media when the target audience is still skewed towards individuals interested in altcoins and bitcoin rather than the general public.

However, I am concerned by the usage of the username 'asiacoin'. The only 'asiacoin' user I can relate to is the original developer. That's why the contributors that worked on the coin were all using their personal GitHub account.

Have we considered a name change and ticker change?

This might give the coin a boost.

It is a good idea if we can brainstorm ideas and see what can be done to strengthen this coin.

When China and American coin are on a boost?
Seriously what better name ... ASIA?

if you are all hyped to change the ticker from AC to ASIA, okay and good luck ... I think that requires fork, no?

i live in asia and would love ASIA more than AC because everyone in asia refers to AIR CONDITION when talking about AC.

Is there a information somewhere when cryptsy plans to finish the wallet maintenance?

Is there a information somewhere when cryptsy plans to finish the wallet maintenance?

Probably have to ask Cryptsy or check their website for the status.

[bittcoinn]

Is there a information somewhere when cryptsy plans to finish the wallet maintenance?

anybody knows when ''update'' at cryptsy started (with freezing asiacoin inputs/outputs)

after receiving reply from mullick on April 11 that ''update should be not longer than minutes'' - this ''update'' very strange

seems the wallet is since block 525599 in update status on cryptsy!
block 525599 was found on 2015-04-03 21:34:16

[bittcoinn]

many days after April, 11 was checking at cryptsy - it stood at block 525599 but there was no red mark ''UPDATE'' and supposedly transfers in/out were possible.
most likely was checking daily till around April, 22.
Then - at some unknown day - come red mark ''UPDATE'' and in/out was frozen.
At which roughly day came red mark ''UPDATE'' ?

[bittcoinn]

now Asiacoin has more problems because of Cryptsy freezing.

anyone with Asiacoin holding should put pressure on Cryptsy by creating support ticket at Cryptsy
and following that ticket

If getting any response from Cryptsy, please to post in this thread

for everyone holding Asiacoin - this Cryptsy freeze is a real threat to value and even existence of Asiacoin and it is serious : must act now

at other exchange - Bter.com - are some possibly problems

may i ask to post in this thread recent experiences with bter.com ? is bter.com working OK?

thanks for info
have similar experience
cannot send out of bter.com
at least still listed on bter.com as existing

[bittcoinn]

actually lot of these exchanges might have serious problems
overinvested
last year Mintpal was having daily volume around 10.000 btc
now Cryptsy shows around 400-500 btc
not long ago cryptsy regularly was showing over 1000 btc daily volume

we must brace for more exchange closings

Cryptsy might start delisting some coins if this would reduce costs for them

at some point altcoins might became real p2p coins

must think of some p2p altcoin exchanges as localbitcoins and bitcoin-otc

[bittcoinn]

we can make more work on a wallets within few days as:

1.could release new Mac wallet without 525599 bug

2.could release new optional Windows wallet with more modern features
 -Tor menu ( easy, popular and proven/stable way of making transactions confidential )
 -Alerts : Alerts are a handy feature to ensure that all network nodes are notified on software updates and important notes from the   developers ( to avoid 0.7.2 wallets on the network and so on )

it is not really best time to release new wallets when cryptsy freezes Asiacoin for unknown reason, and does not respond for
inquiries, but developers now have free time and can work on

please to post any comments as to releasing new version now

any idea would be appreciated

I just renewed the domain today. Sorry for the few hours of downtime.

may we ask to renew if possible or delete dead links on thecoin.asia

it is very important at this moment

website could be reviewed by Cryptsy in any delisting procedure

website for sure will be reviewed by any other exchange in listing/vote request

specifically:
http://www.thecoin.asia/
 - links to wallets does not point to any working wallet
 - links to ''current source code ( work in progress ) '' and ''source code v2.0'' have not much meaning
 - at the page bottom is link to https://github.com/micryon/asiacoin-bc . not sure how much meaning in this link

such old github links might be put somewhere in ''history'' page
anyway if someone wants to follow on github can find these links easily

on
http://www.thecoin.asia/faq/
again link to old github

on
http://www.thecoin.asia/get-asiacoin/
links to c-cex and coin-swap exchanges  ( coin-swap closed )
and
link to Crypto Arrow AsiaCoin Faucet ( also dead )

these wrong links on Asiacoin website, easy to correct in minutes, could heavily influence Cryptsy possible delisting or looking for new exchanges

similar story for https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=595999.0
dead links, could seriously influence anyone reviewing for listing/delisting

Sure, I can update the links but tell me which is the right link? I do not feel comfortable linking to an user known as 'asiacoin'. Either create another account on GitHub and fork the project. No one, in my humble opinion, should be represented as a single author.

As for Cryptsy closing, if the biggest exchange is closing, I don't think things will go well for all altcoins. Please consider what you are advocating carefully.

[bittcoinn]

as to github links - your previous links : do you know who actually was Micryon ?

did we knew his name or location or phone number? or any references?

if you knew such info - why it was not disclosed publicly?

why ''Micryon"" ( as for me-totally anonymous ) as developer you approve, and ''asiacoin'' as developer not?

actually, there is a number of coins where developer is known by his name, but number of coins where developer is known only by his bitcointalk name is much, much bigger

actually, what specifically kind of information / action you want from 'asiacoin' to remove dead github links?

actually, what kind of information you was getting from anonymous ''Micryon'' developer - who afterwards abandoned Asiacoin without
much explanation

could you specify precisely what action/information you need from current real developer of real and working wallets - suppose this action/information you was getting from anonymous ''Micryon'' developer?

edit: do you have any contact with ''Micryon'' now ? his bitcointalk last activity was on August 21, 2014. Actually quite strange for a developer who - you said - is reputable. Anybody knows whereabouts of ''Micryon'' now ?

as for bitcointalk - ''Micryon'' is a dead person now. defending his work from 2014 is really strange, as we cannot contact him, cannot ask his opinion and so on

edit : also on github ''Micryon'' is a dead person. last activity as developer - around august, 2014

meanwhile cryptsy crashed more than hour ago
it could be soft failure or some small or big hack
we will see

started to check cryptsy volumes from last months
for instance
Dec, 29 - btc volume shown as 2255 btc ( + some small volume on ltc and xrp )
Jan, 02 - vol 2053
Jan, 13- vol 2096
Mar, 19 - vol 1644
Apr, 14 - vol 661
today - vol shown as 360 ( similar low volume shown was all last days )

if anybody interested - can post screens

seems as world is falling upside down for cryptsy

my interpretation : after paycoin scam , which dwarfed all other scams in altcoins ever by orders of magnitude,
and cryptsy failed to protect and warn investors - investors turned off from cryptsy, and possibly from
altcoins altogether.

by the way, some smaller exchanges refused to trade paycoin, claiming this is a scam

[bittcoinn]

some pages before Enthef420 confirmed he has succesfully added Asiacoin to comkort vote

now Asiacoin is close to winning this round of votes : has 24770 votes and a coin on 2nd place has 22735 votes

unfortunately this 2nd coin is increasing votes each hour

voting round ends less than in one day

every 0.01 btc counts as 200 votes

we need bigger lead over 2nd coin than 2000 votes to be sure to win this voting round

comkort is a small exchange but feels solid, does not feel as closing anytime soon

comkort has markets for several big name coins too

if possible, please to add votes

[bittcoinn]

have sent ticket to comkort

today coin voting 1 place plncoin has made over 10.000 votes but
bitcoin address for plncoin
https://blockchain.info/address/1B1bXpJCMMxhqU99GJKAGDqNrEDvWzLgnc
shows no inputs
it is absolutely impossible for plncoin to have 10.000 voting users today

before in this post https://comkort.com/blog/news/vote_rules_update
it was said

Dear users,
From Monday we will disable voting for guests and users without trading history.
We will review votes for new coins and if they were using bots – we
will reduce their votes.

really - it is absolutely impossible for plncoin to have over 10.000
voting members today
please to do something on this subject

quite fast despite sunday evening got reply



Thank you for report. Comkort is going to stop coin voting these days and add several coins from voting list. More information will be published during these days too.
I will keep you updated.
