[ANN][OPC] OPEC Reloaded :: Community Approved Takeover

[beauge]

This thread will serve as the official new discussion thread for the OPEC Coin project. You can find the original announcement and subsequent discussion here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=633593.1720


I will refine this post as available time permits but would like to take a moment to establish this post so as to assure the OPEC Coin community that this project is in progress and on track to continue. Bellow is a quick FAQ aimed at those that might not be familiar with the current direction of OPC as well as to those that are and would like to know where we're heading.


I'm new to OPC, what is it and who are you ?

OPEC was originally developed by an individual whom is both anonymous and has since vanished from the scene. Some suspect that this was his intention all along and he just wanted a quick buck. The truth is we don't know and may never know. The coin's original purpose is described in the thread linked to below. If you haven't yet, I would advise reading through at least the first posting to get an idea of what OPC's original goals were.

Right, so who are you and why should I trust you ?

I mined OPC & have bought and traded it. I believed in it's purpose and still believe it's goals can be achieved if shaped, guided and backed by its stakeholder community. I'm not a programmer by trade but as a Linux Administrator of 15+ years I have dabbled in some coding related projects and am comfortable scripting in many different languages. My intention in taking over the OPC development is to as follows.

1. Rebase and maintain the security of the softwares codebase.
2. Review, rework and clarify the coins purpose(s)
3. Work towards implementing new functionality and features via adopting changes from upstream sources ( other coin projects with active and trusted developers ).
4. As the project evolves, matures and gathers greater interest from stakeholders and trusted developers, establish new features and functionalities that will tailor it to better suit it's purposes.

Finally, I have publicly published my personal LinkedIn profile in the post linked to above. I am not developing this project as an anonymous developer and anyone else whom is selected to contribute to the project is intended on making their details public.

What's the timeline ?

Right now I'm getting settled in at a new job. I am devoting what free time I have available during my public transport travel (where I'm typing this) to and from work on this project. Currently however due to training my priority is to my paid job so I am somewhat limited at present in time and resources. I will be able to contribute more time to the project in coming days / weeks. There is a lot to be done and initially a lot of this is behind the scenes so I won't have much to show for some time.



My commute is coming to a close so I'll have to continue this at a later time.

Hey folks we're edging ever so close to being dropped from bittrex at the end of this week unless trading picks up. I was able to save us from doom last week but its in the hands of the community now!

Anyone aware of a working block explorer for this coin.

Could some people give me their latest block along with the blockhash?

Thank you,

No block explorer running, AFAIK.

What I see is this:

myserver$ ./OpecCoind getpeerinfo | grep height
        "startingheight" : 98687,
        "startingheight" : 98688,
        "startingheight" : 98688,
