we need rev2 final released or we going back to 110k

BTC is going down so alts are taking a hit too. Time to buy more, rev 2 will be finished soon.

I'm getting real tired of the whining about the price/volume from some folks in this thread. We have a Price Speculation Topic on the official forum if you must whine.

It's especially annoying if the whining is unsubstantiated. Have you looked at the charts? There's nothing to indicate that the price is headed to that level. REV2 will come when it's ready and not a second sooner.

This! You can find the PST in my sig people, as well as a newb friendly coin control guide!

Altcoins scene is really scary right now, and bitcoin is going through a weird phase, xc is our beacon through this mud!

I've used the vanitygen many times with other coins...
but this time it conflicts with the public key...

I guess we could use cryptogretsky's way with the paper wallet gen.

Actually....   This works...

vanitygen -X 75 XChat

and it's blazing fast even without using the opencl version since it doesn't work for me (R9 290)

yeah, of course it's fast...
I generated my xchat adress this way,
but when I imported this adres in my wallet and I asked my public key it gave me a public key witch was very long

it was even you cryptogretzky who said it didn't work

I would like to test something...

I made myself a vanity adress for xchat
would someone please try to contact me over xchat?

adress: XCHATsLztdvJxb2BkrgVuoq7uoC73u6ghj
pubkey: Ro4rYufnJy7RYFnuJBaD1iz5Rrr8o77fyKbcnkAbqC57JCS148WVMabshBjHd1JsZGoJ2JZtj6LYtfP e8bavoY51

(I've noticed that my pub key is really long, that's why I want to test this)


If it works I'll explain it in a tutorial

Said Invalid destination public key

I do remember that test.  Didn't know you use vanitygen before.    The public key is extremely long too for me when I import the uncompressed private key.     When I import the compressed private key though, the public key I get back is normal....     of course that defeat the purpose of the vanity address since the search is based on uncompressed address.   So... ultimately, will need to modify the vanitygen to make it search based on compressed address instead of uncompressed address.

eg. make the following changes in pattern.c

len = EC_POINT_point2oct(pgroup,
             pubkey,
             POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED,
             eckey_buf,
             sizeof(eckey_buf),
             vxcp->vxc_bnctx);

to make it use POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED instead.

Now... if only I can compile it....  

Ok, I FINALLY got the vanitygen to compile and it also generated compressed address that you can get valid public key out of from the wallet... it's not really for the faint of heart to get it to compile properly on Windows....  total pain in the butt.   If someone needs to know how to compile it, I will see if I can reproduce the steps I took to get it to compile (most of the hassle was getting all the libraries that it needed to work)

Anyway, a few changes are needed to make it generate compressed address.   Luckily, I found a fork of the vanitygen that already has the compressed address changes that is needed.

The location of the github is here:

https://github.com/WyseNynja/vanitygen

To make it generate valid XC address using this, you will need to use the following command:

Code:

vanitygen -X 75 -F compressed Xwhatever

I didn't have a chance to compile oclvanitygen to test to see if it works since it won't really run with 13.xx drivers with my R9.   You might have better luck than me....

Please note that XC address is base58 encoded so you can't have O (capital O), I (capital i), 0 (zero), l (lowercase L) in your pattern.

If BTC-e wants to get extremely popular, they should refund his losses or at least partially, that would probably help them more in the long run than this.

But its not their fault and it sets a precedence. They will be flooded with requests from other bot traders.

don't use a bot if you don't know how to use it or if it's not well tested.
if you bought a bot that is doing this, blame yourself, it's your fault that you trusted the seller

i lol'd when i saw this ...bots should be illegal. they are used to manipulate charts and investor interest. whoever lost out on this deserves it. and he should be the one recouping anyone's losses as far as i am concerned. been following pump and dumpers twitter accounts this weekend and know that they are using bots to manufature volume before they rally their pumps. even with the low activity today, it was amazing to me how much effort they put into it. it is really disgusting. not that these guys toy with btc ...but still.

Interestingly... even this super long public key one works for XChat...  so maybe you don't even need to recompile your own to support compressed address as long as you use -X 75 for vanitygen.

Good morning!

For sure, in summer time everything takes longer. Now the summer is over. There will be more activity for sure!

that is really strange...
mine didn't work

[Artoodeetoo]

I think it should busy up, hopefully this week... The last release mentioned finishing touches to REV.. So it cannot be far away.. There are loads of other things in the melting pot.. I imagine its all coming together as we speak....

Questions: I have 700 XC in my wallet, and was just paid .01998 XC for staking. On the left side of the wallet it says Balance 680 XC and Stake 20 XC. I've had the same balance now for 1 week. Why didn't it stake with all of the XC ?

That depends on your coin ages.

I've been accumulating coins from launch, just a few here and there. However, i've had around 500 coins last week. It also staked at a lower amount (maybe 30 XC stake with payout of .01 XC).

Dan, what is the expected XC public launch date?

[Dungor]

Dan, what is the expected XC public launch date?

After Rev 3.0, Dan is currently finishing 2.0 and inbetween those there will be 2.5.
You can find the roadmap in the OP.

[Dungor]

I'm struggling to understand the Transaction process described in the OP with the reintroduction to the 550 XC minimum limit for mixers. More specifically step 7) "Nodes mix and forward fragments from different addresses to the ones they receive fragments  on.", but I thought that Mixers and Nodes were two different things? All wallets are nodes but only wallets/addresses with 550+ XC can be mixers and you have to enable a setting for this? Somewhat like a Darkcoin Masternode?

I would love some clarification on the difference between a Darkcoin Masternode and a XC mixer, also why dedicated mixers and their limits are even needed as opposed to all wallets with XC in it could function as mixers?

Does XChat run through Mixers?

Just to clarify I'm not trying to cause FUD, I still hold and stake my over-exposed position in XC. I just wan't to understand the more technical aspect of how XC is anon compared to our friendly alternatives.

,Thanks

Ok thanks, I need to try this.

You should look for one that say XCTeka....   I am looking for one that is XCGretz... now

Also... use -t to increase the # of workers to make it go faster.

I've used the software before (with -t 16 ) but never for altcoins.

I tried -t 24 seems to work for me, then I tried 1024 and it kinda locked up for some reason when it gets to 50%....

I thought it was one per thread?

Ya, the speed up only lasted for like a few seconds, then it slowed back down to normal speed...   although my 3 VM is still running smoothly in the background.  So, I am sure I can push it if I want.

36 billions addresses so far... no XCGretz address yet... grrrr

Inb4 all addresses have been generated and no new addresses can be made anymore.

The amount of addresses that is possible is so large... so so large...

2 to the 160 power....  that's like ...

1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976

There are only 2^63 grains of sand on earth....

Wow that is more addresses then all the Stars in the Universe.

when will rev3 be ready and the price goes to ATH?

[Sammie Sna]

when will rev3 be ready and the price goes to ATH?

Just wait.I believe XC is a long-term project and all we need to do is follow the devs and wait.
