[ANN][VRC] VeriCoin Proof of Stake-Time Currency | New Roadmap Released

[jobnotfound]

Completely random question but is there any significance to the number of "active connections" displayed within the wallet? I am often between 2-5 connections and was wondering if it means anything? Perhaps more connections = greater chance of staking faster?

Any response is appreciated.

Not sure if you solved this problem, but I was having the same issue and now have over 31 active connections to the network.

The issue for me was with my wireless router settings:
Try this first.
1) check your router config/administration to see if UPnP is Enabled or available. Restart router/wallet/pc.
This may solve your problem.

Also check to see if you have a vericoin.conf file set up and using a text editor, see if the following supernodes are present in plain text.
addnode=supernode.vericoin.info
addnode=supernode2.vericoin.info
addnode=supernode3.vericoin.info
addnode=supernode4.vericoin.info
addnode=supernode5.vericoin.info


For me (linux/ubuntu) I also had to
2) manually set my IP address out of the DHCP range (was 192.168.1.1 through192.168.1.200) I manually set to 192.168.1.201 as an example.
3) enable port forwarding for port 58683 in router to this IP address.

So nice to see this many staking, luv the interest daily.  Can't beat free coins.

threw 2 MH/s scrypt to pool.vericoin.info

Anyone know how long it will take @ that hash rate to see my first coins?

When you have mined 1 VRC and based on OBA could take one or 2 days for payment comes in.

I would assume it's my router before anything else. I wasn't really complaining about it being a problem as much as I was just curious as to what these numbers mean. According to Socal's response it doesn't really benefit in any way other than having a more secure network. The question I was wondering is would having more connections = faster staking = more money?? Which by my understanding is no. If that's the case than I don't care =)

I do appreciate the feedback though - I'll look into my router settings and see if I can speed things up Thanks!

why is the 24 high at 28M when total coins is only 26M?

EVERY ONE THE NETWORK STAKE IS NOT THE SAME AS THE AMOUNT OF COINS STAKING THAT IS JUST THE "STAKE WEIGHT" OF THE NETWORK

I hope this cleared up any confusion.

Because the staking network != coins in circulation. There is a greater weight to the number of coins the longer they have been staking. So in theory (and now reality) coins staking >= coins in circulation

Yeah the stake is not directly coins. It's a coin weight that includes coinage (time since last earned interest for each coin). It's essentially normalized including coinage and is close to the total coins staking but a bit more complex. Nonetheless this is some historic staking for POS I suspect and is near the realistic maximum. Impressive show of community strength!  Kudos to all you guys! Go VeriCoin!

aaaaaaaand here comes a dump =p

what is the possible maximum stake..just curious.. so i can better understand staking

[yoshiwatusi]

seriously, would the devs allow the coin to go under 10k SAT?

Thank you!

How could the devs stop it? Besides rolling back of course.

When you will understand that coin price is not dev responsibility but community.
Community need to create services/startups where you will use VRC and create REAL volume.
while dev responsibility is to keep coin safe and bugs free (for me he is dong his job fine )

Do you know why BTC is keeping that high price because thousands of businesses is relaying on BTC
from mining stuff - to arbitrage services - shops - blackmarkets - minig contracts - exchanges.
Those services are creating BTC true demand and demand is that what makes it price high.

Sooner you will wake up and and understand that is better for you.
Coin features - nice thing but you have to face with that in every next month new coin can go out
with 2x better features than you have ( DRK and anon race ).
(POS- Bithares 10s 1st block full confirmation technology decentralized system
while all PPC forks have centralized checkpoints today (BC XC VRC Cloak and rest )

The devs don't control the price.

Who is playing with VRC buy / sell? Some people really manipulating price.

Yes this has been happening the past two weeks or so either whales accumulating or a well funded attack trying to kill VRC by artificially suppressing the price either way all we have to do is buy out the manipulators and NOT DUMP and there will be a clear shot back up.


EDIT:

Just something to think about if you take the time to dig back through the posts and the market graphs you will see a well coordinated FUD attack that coincided with the drop in price and subsequent suppression. That tells me there's either some big whales that know this is a good coin and wanted in cheap OR bag holders from other coins that want to see VRC fail because we threaten them.

Hey Doug, at the end pf the day you are going to have to explain this a whole lot more clearly so EVERYONE can understand because right now, before the end of the day, this is starting to sound suspiciously, very suspiciously, like a whole lot of CRAP.

How can a coin that has a max of less than 26 mill coins, all already mined during the POW stage, has now 28 million coins STAKING? This is preposterous. Everyone knows that there are A LOT of coins still NOT STAKING and lying on the exchanges (I know I have quite a few and they are not staking a single VRC), so how the heck can so many coins be staking? An understandable answer, without ANY bull shit, is required rather immediately, long before the end of the day, ok?

Nope, this doesn't clear anything. How many COINS are staking? Plain and simple. And what the heck is "stake weight" of the Network?
