[ANN] Soundcoin: a crypto-currency for the world of music (0% Premine - Scrypt)

[dakk]

Hi all.
I want to inform that Soundcoin is coming: genesis block has May 10 2014, 15:00 timestamp.

Why another coin?
We want to create a crypto-currency for the world of music, with a particular focus to
indipendent artists and crowd-funding.
We're not just creating a coin, in our developing walk there're:
- a music store with crowd-funding platform for music bands
- a public API that allow other services to integrate soundcoin
- mobile wallet with music store integrated
and many more.

Saturday we'll just launch the coin network with website and block explorer, other features are still WIP.


Tech coin info:
Soundcoin is a fork of Litecoin with some different parameters (scrypt algorithm).
 - 3 minute block targets
 - subsidy halves in 840k blocks (~4 years)
 - ~5 billion total coins
 - 1000 coins per block
 - 1440 blocks to retarget difficulty

Pools:
 - http://snd.poolest.com/
 - http://snd.hashhot.com/

That's all.
For clarity, we'll mine with other users (slow kH), but it's just to put coin inside our services, for our platform awards service, to give some reward to devs and to pay our servers.

Hope you'll apreciate this initiative.

And no hint as to what algorithm you will use?

[ruletheworld]

And no hint as to what algorithm you will use?

The op said Litecoin fork, so I assume Scrypt?

Yep, is scrypt, I fixed the post. Thank you

[dakk]

We added soundcoin in the altcoincalendar, the link is https://www.altcoincalendar.info/coins/440-SND.

this coin "sounds" good

i'll conisder mining if its other algo besides scrypt.

[lxxx]

we should get more information about hte coin.

I hope the dev can spread more information in details. I think it will attract more and more people..

Which informations do you think I need to provide?

[CryptoMan2014]

Why did you make a new account for this coin, do you have any failed coins under your previous account?

[dakk]

No lol, it's my first account, and this is my first (and last I think) coin I made

No lol, it's my first account, and this is my first (and last I think) coin I made

Oke, you talked about "we" on the OP and now it's only  "I"?

Oke, I've see a few failed coins (STP, OMC) that I mined. Both didn't have a lot of info on the main page like your coin and they failed because of it.
Look at Yellowcoin for example( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=578727.0)
See the difference?
3 days before launch, maybe postpone to add more info(don't ask me what, I don't know) and get more people involved to mine or develop?

"We" because we're two devs working on this project at the moment.
"I" beacuse this account (dakk) is connected to a single person and not with the team. The person is dakk on github.

Thank you, I'll put in the website

[triplef]

dont make this scrypt....

Scrypt is dead.. only asic scrypt mine them its a was of speed on mine and dump, if you want this coin to survive it needs anything but scrypt.

Scrypt coins  are made BY devs who own ASIC Scrypts , they mine at 200 meg to 1.2GIG hash scrypt and auto dump as soon as it confirms.
your coin will last 72 hours like orange/yello/white/and all the other shit that came out.

X11/Nscrypt or dont even bother / if you launch with scrypt then we all definately know there is no long term here only short dump and move to the next one.

my 2 satos

[qhong]

the name of the coin is so good, and  It sounds like so nice...

I love it, and I will keep an eye on it..

[Poolest]

I'll setup a pool.  What's the coin's symbol?  SND or did coincalendar just assume?  How many confirmations required for mined blocks?  And when is launch?  5-10-14 at 15 GMT?

[wegsturm]

Good name wasted for a bad coin

That sure is a slow retarget.  Might be interesting!  What's starting diff?

Good name wasted for a bad coin   

[jianxinss]

I don 't like it .nothing attract me

[dakk]

Good name wasted for a bad coin   

Explain me why it's a bad coin sir

[alcamie]

And no hint as to what algorithm you will use?

If you read above it says:

Tech coin info:
Soundcoin is a fork of Litecoin with some different parameters (scrypt algorithm)


So I take it it would be scrypt.

[Lpingui]

This currency introduced too simple, right?

[dakk]

This currency introduced too simple, right?

What do you mean?

[dakk]

Soundcoin will be released today. The windows client and source code are available on http://soundcoin.me and will be usable after the launch time.

In contrary to other alt-coin, our force are services related to music planned to release after soundcoin diffusion. The idea is to create a platform to distribute money to emerging bands, in the hope to finance them projects, offering a multiplatform music-streaming app with crowd-funding functionality.
Maybe we will fail, but this is our start-up idea.

That's all.

[poon4]

Any coin with sincere dev and perfect plan will go to the places.good luck.

[a137924685]

The Soundcoin doesnt make so much sound in the forum.Its kind of inrony.
I hope it will get better after the coin launched.

[djm34]

The not so funny part: someone made 2 days ago a violincoin for musician and now we already have a copycat.
This is pathetic, find your own idea.

If the other coin was a smellcoin (here free idea take it), we all know what smell would have this one...

Not that I am really interested in the other coin  but this behaviour piss me off...

[coinnewbit]

Hmm, just saying, OP's handle looks like dank.

Soundcoin is in development from two months, maybe the copycat is violincoin, or maybe not. I think will survive who will offer better services; a coin without services I think it's useless, our targets are services related to the coin.

If memory serves me right.Soundcoin is annonced before Violincoin.They both anna on the same day.
To me its more like a coincidence more than copycat.

I also think is a coincidence, in fact I said "maybe yes or maybe not" to confute the accuses. BTW, I don't care, it's not a race (I don't like competition), soundcoin team will work togheter to reach our targets.

[ene1980]

we all like free distrubute pos coin ,lol

Agree 

[platorin]

Looks intresting. I would liketo wish you all the best!

[Mrboot]

Dev why are you not even updateing your first post with things like selected pools and so on it seems
like a lack of will.

Also why is altcoincalender giving a diffrent time compared to your website?

Guess your website is the treu one right ?

Fixed.

The countdown is misaligned with correct timezone. Anyway, altcoincalendar says the truth, and the blockexplorer give the correct delay time  in unixtime http://soundcoin.me:2750/

The information of the coin is too little?

[Lpingui]

This currency introduced too simple, right?

What do you mean?

I mean, I do not see more information about this coin. Or my lack of understanding! Maybe you misunderstood

[TequilaV]

 ;)Could you please add more details about it? Do you think your plan will really work? What is some new things and functions about this coin?

[WayForward]

D'oh

You released the wallet a few hours before this was meant to release ? then it wont install and crashes ? from your website under downloads

[Burninj]

Wallet crashing here under win8.1

[foob6]

is made forr music,and you？

[TimC]

Wallet crashing here under win8.1

The wallet does not work.

[dakk]

I mean, I do not see more information about this coin. Or my lack of understanding! Maybe you misunderstood

The coin is a fork of litecoin, then is totally equal to litecoin except what we specified in the post/site

;)Could you please add more details about it? Do you think your plan will really work? What is some new things and functions about this coin?

We think our plan have a change to work, our force is the music platform we are realizing. It won't use only soundcoin; if soundcoin fail, the platform will be deployed with other altcoin support.

[crazyboy1234]

can i use these  coin to buy or hear music?

The orphans seem to have stopped on Poolest.  The FAST blocks were probably causing issues.

[Poolest]

The "problem" is this characteristic: 1440 blocks to retarget difficulty

It's going to be a flood of blocks until 1440.

I'm out. What a waste of time.

The orphans seem to have stopped on Poolest.  The FAST blocks were probably causing issues.

there crap too no reply ect

[Poolest]

The "problem" is this characteristic: 1440 blocks to retarget difficulty

It's going to be a flood of blocks until 1440.

Err, we're already way past 1440, hopefully retargets soon!

Hi all!

We = me and the other developer.


I want to explain to you.

We failed, that's it. We underestimated the fact that there're scrypt miner, then
there're some person that mined all first blocks; our error is to focus only on
services, with the development of music-streaming platform related to this coin.
We underestimated the importance of POS.

We announce that we stop all services for now, and we maybe back soon with
a modified soundcoin, maybe with X11 algorithm and off course with POS and
some inital services, we're appreciating advices for that.

We didn't scam, we didn't mined nothing.

I'm really sorry for those wich mined soundcoin, we're back with a better coin
with better services.
