BTCD is no more

[ASICHEAD]

Hi BTCD community,

I've said this before and will say it again. I am very intrigued by this coin and the projects it has going on. I do have a serious question though, and if someone can give me an answer, I would greatly appreciate it.

I read elsewhere that this coin has a 1.5% premine that is for development purposes.  Is that true? If so, then why do the devs need to raise more money for development, as seen on the OP?  This is somewhat puzzling to me and I wanted to know if there was a good explanation for it.  Thanks in advance.

the premine total was around 20,000 BTCD and it has already been spent. I think it brought in a whopping 3 BTC at the time as during the PoW phase, the price of BTCD was very low

Also, I joined the coin about a week after launch and it is my fault for needing dev budget as I am making many new work for GUI guys and I dont do GUI

Can somebody fill me in as to why I'm now seeing:
"Not Staking because you don't have mature coins"

Was staking just fine up until my last bit of PoS coins came in earlier this morning.

You will provide your NXT address and get it after donation funds are gathered, same as it was with anon cards donations, everyone got the asset

BTCD is now 15th on coinmarketcap 

[Aptidude]

Tonight Price Up to 0.01 BTC

I really think this coin can pass DRK.

There will be a few dumps during the travel and some panic selling, but this coin can get there 100%

We have way less coins in circulation!

Why is this coin moving up today?  News or just the pump of the day?

there is some confusion. I am matching other people's donations with NXTprivacy asset. so this is not like purchasing NXTprivacy for the donation. It is a pure donation, just that it gets "doubled" with NXTprivacy assets

Now, one problem is that NXTprivacy is ~14 NXT and BTCD seems to have become some sort of rocketship so soon I wont be able to match. with current around 1000 BTCD raised, that is 14000 NXTprivacy assets to match. I cannot go above 25000 total NXTprivacy. At this rate, without any new donations, this limit will be gone quite soon...

I want to be clear that I have never received any BTCD for my codings. I am first self-made NXT millionaire (not from IPO or buy low, sell high) as I created asset values of over 100 million NXT. I sold majority to investors (they are quite happy too), but I did keep enough, so money is not something that I worry about anymore.

I am doing this not for money and I have asked that the small amount of BTCD that I was offered way back in the beginning when I first joined to be given to BTCDdev. I want him to have as much BTCD as possible!

So, please donate some small portion, doesnt matter how small so we can pay for GUI devs, website devs, etc. and hopefully use to get more help to make BTCD even better. I am only one guy and only so much I can do

Thanks!

James,


Briefly an you tell us why bitcoindark was something you wanted to help develop? I'm just curious about why you chose this vs. some others that have been created in months past. Trust me I'm very happy with everything, just curious. Also, do you and Azeh have any relationship in the past? Thank you to Azeh for creating this coin, it's been fun!

Thanks!

If that 4 BTC wall gets eaten at 700k we're off to Mars. Still no signs of stopping

Thanks!

I had been working on privacyServers (since very early this year) for NXTprivacy and I had even created a BBR (best cryptonote tech) fork called pNXT. I was going to create an automated two way peg for pNXT <-> NXT to allow for cryptonote transport of NXT

the problem was to create a peg (and doubly so for two way peg), requires continual centralized price support (if you want to be sure the pegs hold and to offer zero cost spreads) or to rely on the magic hand of the market (like btsx is doing - be careful if you have any of this!). Neither of these two seemed sustainable.

so I started looking for a coin that was liquid and had a free market based price. Then the price change during transit of the funds from source to destination would be small. that is how ripple's XRP is supposed to work

That was a few days after BTCD launched and soon it was at petahash!
Since I was looking for a coin with a secure network, it seemed like a good choice. At first I was just going to use BTCD as a transit currency, but I sent a few PM's to Azeh about the issues of using zerocoin (it was in the repo) and instead of the usual, "we know what we are doing" attitude that most coins have, Azeh was very encouraging and supportive. This was in spite of my wanting to use Nxt Inside as a lot of my code uses NXT. I like to use the best software available for simplifying what I need to do and I also use libuv, libwebsockets, nacl, libtom, libcurl, gzip, etc. Why reinvent the wheel when you can get a nice shiny one for free? if you have NXT installed, just go to http://127.0.0.1:7876/test and you will see the API that is available. How can I not use such nice free API?

I was in the BBR community for a bit, but I got a PM from their "management" to please post all your stuff about pNXT somewhere else as it is confusing the Boolberry people. Had they been having the attitude of Azeh, I could easily have ended up enhancing BBR instead of BTCD.

I also got the same sort of encouragement to leave from the ripple community last december, that is how I ended up in NXT.

So not only did Azeh create BTCD for us, he is the reason I am here! He recognized the value of a simple C programmer like me.

Many more have yet to give it the attention it deserves. Almost no FUD here and what does appear is quickly debunked. This coin is legitimate with big plans, immense amounts of information and most importantly a smart and incredibly active development team. It's a strong and loyal community as well.

Hey James

Thanks for the shout out about BBR I think you have a very good attitude that will take you places.

I am not sure who sent the PM, obviously they meant no harm and it should probably have been kept in the "dark", but I can understand your frustration given you seem very enthusiastic with everything that you touch. I also know you had big buy support with BBR, so your support was genuine. I am no way affiliated with the "management" (lol) but perhaps you can sympathize given how much they have been held under FUD by competing CN teams and apologies for any confusion.

Good luck with this project. I am looking to sneak in at a good entry point as I am liking what I see here.
