Yesterday and again today I noticed a new user on the crytpobec pool, username RF418, who has a consistent speed just a tad under 50 Mh/s. I am not sure if that is his own equipment or if he is renting it. I put some of my PB mining weekly BTC earnings into Betarigs X11 miners, and am temporarily pumping out a lot of coins.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

The Bittrex warning that Québecoin is in danger of being delisted due to lack of user interest and low trading volume has disappeared.

Yes but the volume is only 0.06 BTC since yesterday.... |

One problem that we have which could easily be fixed is that we need to optimize our google search results for Québecoin, so that relevant information about our subject is closest to the top. The links to the original site are still at the top, but they are now taking us to a dead link. So these will eventually get taken out of the search. One day to be only seen using the Wayback Machine. We might also want to push some of those April news reports further to the bottom, because the early media coverage of cryptocurrencies tend to be unhelpful. Right now I need to enter Québecoin and fork into the search in order to get to the new discussions. A key tool to help educate people, which is very cheap, would be a well written wikipedia entry for Québecoin. That could also be a case where you make a point of making the French version slightly more detailed than the English one.
Also, I was trying google searches to find results in which individuals are making reference to their own Québecoin address. I think I was only able to find one.

And the volume is still showing a little above 0.06 BTC today. And that is despite the fact that the top google search for Québecoin still leads to the now defunct original website. Also despite the fact that we don't yet have a wikipedia entry, and very limited information on the internet about our coin beyond this bitcointalk thread and our little discussion forum with 23 members. That also means that somebody other than me was buying up Québecoin today, since I didn't visit Bittrex since yesterday. So I believe that we at least have a starting point to build upon. I went from the original 22 or so coins I received back in April for retweeting a promotional message about Québecoin on twitter, to now having over 10,000 QBC. It is still a very modest starting point, but I did get the the message about Québecoin. And at least a few others have as well. |

Regarding search optimization, maybe @Same same can give us some tips.  So I believe that we at least have a starting point to build upon.
Indeed. Now it's all about slow progress. It'll take time but I have no doubt the community will grow slowly. People will come and go, some will stick around more actively than others - and this is all right. We have years a head of us to try things and experiment. Just a matter of time till more Quebecers hear about cryptos and hopefully they'll come cross QBC. I'll be there, ready to share some! |

That was me :-). I bought 50 Mh/s from westhash to try the service. |

Wow...what a tight-knit community we have. Something unusual happens on the Bittrex orderbook or with the hash rate, and the individual responsible shows up to the thread and claims credit. Makes it cozy...like a traditional ole-Canadian hotstove party to take away the cabin fever of winter.  |

The rig owner sent me a message at the beginning on the mine telling me that there was a global issue affecting the pools earlier today. I'm not sure but that could be what caused us to go offline. |

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in initiating the very first charitable donation involving Québecoin?
Moi je vote pour Mission Bon Accueil avec mon 1000 QBC C'est quoi le convertisseur que tu à capturé? Marie-Lynn |

Marie-Lynn
Selon le convertisseur, 1000 Québecoin équivaut à $2.47 USD. Ce montant est décidé selon le dernier achat fait sur Bittrex, et a été calculé avec l'aide du site crypto-prices.com. Un convertisseur que j'ai trouvé grâce à la page des liens utiles: https://quebeco.in/liensutiles/Je soulignerais que le coût actuel pour miner 1000 QBC s'approche à 0.01 BTC ($5.95CND). Car je viens de louer un rig de mineurs avec le taux de hashage de 300 Mh/s pour une durée de 3 heures pour le coût de 0.01151914 BTC, et je prévois en tirer seulement ~800 QBC. https://www.betarigs.com/rig/916Je vais donc ajouter $6 à mon $14 pour en faire un don de $20. L'autre page pour convertir la monnaie Québecoin dans dollar canadien ne fonctionne pas comme il faut et fait semblant que le Québecoin n'a aucune valeur: http://crypto.fiatlux.tk/quebecoin |

Pretty nice initiative, I'm willing to add 1k as well. L'autre page pour convertir la monnaie Québecoin dans dollar canadien ne fonctionne pas comme il faut et fait semblant que le Québecoin n'a aucun valeur: http://crypto.fiatlux.tk/quebecoinThat's Biguenique's website. I had a few e-mail with him and Rhead back before the fork. |

Ok, j'apporte une petite correction. Lemayilleur, merci pour les 2406 QBC = $14 (la valeur selon mon coût de minage d'aujourd'hui, j'exagère mais bon). Alors je considère le don comme étant financé à 100% par vos Québecoins. |

Yesterday, I sold some Québecoin for the first time on the bittrex exchange. I am noticing that it takes well over an hour for the deposit to show up in the bittrex QBC wallet. There is a page that explains that it takes a minimum of 20 confirmations for deposits of Québecoin. Yet I am looking at 46 confirmations, and the deposit is still pending over an hour later. That is another bottleneck that can hinder trading.

An offer for developing the android wallet has come in. Nous venons de recevoir un message sur le fil de discussion original: Sérieusement, je peux faire la version android pour pas cher, ça ne serait pas instantanné mais pas pire que d'attendre après d'autres, non? |
