[ANN][TAC] TalkCoin

[Breasal]

I've been talking to the dev and suggesting the team should push for TOR Anon support on this coin. Freedom and security for communication but also for the coin itself.

What do you guys think?

I think this would create more demand, increase price, increase hashrate and further secure the network.

Would be a good addition for sure

Thanks for the feedback.

Anonymity in Talkcoin is a key aspect because there are a lot of internet users who want private and secure communications and there is very little choice in the market.  

But right now we are finishing the basics like improving public chat and voting.

Good to see the update, thanks.

Maybe DEV team needs another developer/coder? I've been mining and in the TAC community for 6-8 weeks and development is very very slow. I think the dev is good but not fast.

There are people that with a dev fund could help out for a fee. Is talkcoin open to hiring another coder?

I haven't posted anything until now bcs I was exhausted from the darkcoin drama yesterday... but here i am.

Missed the drama and don't feel like diving into DRK thread. I noticed on poloniex that someone dumped hard. Can you sum up what happened?

In a nutshell, Darkcoin has been working on a protocol that runs above bitcoin through masternodes.
These masternodes accumulate that transactions and shuffle them so that an observer of the blockchain no longer knows who sent who and what amount.
It is already implemented and functioning. Yesterday, a new version was implemented via hard-fork. The new version was to provide Masternodes a payment for their service. Last time it caused many forks. Yesterday was supposed to be different bcs it was tested and modified.... but it failed again...
Still, the concept is cutting-edge and very innovative and will enable many added features.

Thanks for the summary...now back to TAC.

Hi, yes we are open to that.

Hi, yes we are open to that.

I'm sure many people will donate to pay developer's team, just look how many donations came into djim's pocket for making optimised miner. So it won't be just from the founder's pocket.

I see many suggestions for features and improvements, some stupid some cool. We should keep record of these and store perhaps poll them or vote for them (like the coin cap for example). This way everyone will feel they add their contribution and the devs will develop this coin the way it could get strong and add future value to the crypto world.

[deathmul]

I hope that we will se in future:
-fully anonymous
-private chat, possibility to making chat rooms
-file transfer
-mobile app on Android and iOS with anonymous chat
-maybe voice and video chat?

Talkcoin could be great communicator

TAC IS UP AGAIN,

[binkshurts]

chatting cost need to change. More people will chat if it only cost 0.01 TAC

+1
1 TAC for message too much. At least 0.1 TAC.

Hopefully, we'll all change that once the voting for the cost is implemented.

[Litejavichu]

difficulty has quadrupled .... Let us multiply the reward x4, or we will be proactive and increase to 120

[yellowduck2]

How come talk coin not on mintpal voting list ?

Give it a little time.

We decided not to implement voting for chat cost in the next release.

Instead, costs will be set to:

Chat: 0.1 TAC Bold: 1 TAC
Vote: 2 TAC

[TalkTeam]

OK... i d/l and tried Talkcoin chat.
neat...

I have a few newbie questions if anyone can drop a link/answer.

1. eli5 the voting.
2. how many chars can be sent per message?
3. are chars sent in unicode?
4. is there a web interface presenting the chat log?
5. is there a 'fee structure' per message/ message length/ emoticons/ links/ hyperlinks/ other?
6. when sending a message, where do the coins go to? are they burned? go into a fund? other

thnx

Hi

Messages are unicode, fee structure is just 2 prices for plaintext or bold. Chat messages are stored in the blockchain so yes a website can read these, but no one has done this yet as far as I know.

About funds from messages / voting, they will be removed from circulation (sent to first genesis block TpmfuGrjvgn43GoR8MRV3UKfPEZBrsBVGN, the genesis block coinbase is not spendable).  This will be a good means to increase the velocity of circulation of money with TAC continuously created and destroyed.

Excellent work!!!

I would suggest some way to prevent vote manipulation. 2 TAC per vote might make it more enticing for people attempting to alter the reward for their supposed benefit.

IP logging to prevent multiple wallets can't be done due to the anonymous nature of the coin plus TOR is already doable.

I haven't thought on it long but there must be a way to make it not worth the effort.

Again, great work and can't wait for the update.

Congrat. We are on the press, people. Hold your TAC firmly.
