You are jumping to conclusions. Where does it say that DEV is involved? |

You are jumping to conclusions. Where does it say that DEV is involved? I agree, pretty harsh words. While I do concur that the project sounds far-fetched to say the least, perhaps the time has come to start thinking and going big. As always, do your own due diligence and think for yourself. |

I was looking through the Burstcoin source code, and one thing that worries me about future scalability is the hard-coded MAX_NUMBER_OF_TRANSACTIONS constant, which limits the number of transactions per block to 255. This is similar to the 1 MB block size limit that is currently affecting bitcoin. Bitcoin is bound by this block size limit, and therefore the bitcoin network can only process a maximum of 7 transactions per second. Burstcoin has a similar limit right now, but its limit is 63 tx/sec. This gives Burstcoin more time to solve the problem - but since solving it requires a hard fork, I think it would be better to solve the problem now while the coin is still young. I think the best solution is something along the lines of Gavin Andreson's proposal to increase the maximum block size by 50% per year. I think in Burstcoin's case, the solution should be to increase the maximum number of transactions per block by 3.45% per month (which is about equal to a 50% increase per year). This is an important change for the future scalability of Burstcoin. And it's an important change to make now, because the more the coin matures, the more difficult it will be to introduce a successful hard fork. If you're interested, @burstcoin, I'd be willing to take a crack at coding up this change in behavior. Bumping this since no one commented on it. Does anyone else think it's a good idea to raise the maximum blocksize formulaically over time? |

This coin was not premined. A pump would serve more purpose if the dev had a big stash, as far as I know he mined fair and square as the rest of the people. 2. Choosing a 25year long solar farm project is a poor pump vehicle. You need something with a faster ROI to pump effectively 3. There has been no indication whatsoever that koko and dev are collaborating on this, where is your evidence that they are? Where lies the burden of proof? 4. There is no shame in promoting a coin. while it not being a pump. Full disclosure: I would really like for koko's project to work, even though I don't own any shares. Crypto needs success stories |

Does anyone else think it's a good idea to raise the maximum blocksize formulaically over time? You raised all valid points, the issue is known. If any coin is to become a large provider it needs to be able to process large numbers of tx's Whether are there any downsides to your proposal code-wise, you'll have to wait for the dev to answer. I am really not the most qualified to tackle that issue. |

my transaction from faucet is still not confirming after half a day. I want to start mining but kinda losing hope on this coin. Apparently my address is not on the blockchain: http://burst.cryptoport.io/acc/BURST-MGYC-6PTV-X9HL-FK8D4Is there any better tutorials on how to config the wallet? the readme file says i have to type my ip in the nxt,myaddress=xxx but it crashes. I am using 1.2.0 Sent you 4 burst, make an outgoing transaction when you get them - that will secure your acc. I think there is something wrong with the faucet, maybe its not updated to 1.2.0 The community is pretty helpful, so after you got your acc sorted ask away. Please be more specific as Pilotseye said  BURST-8NZ9-X6AX-72BK-2KFM2 is dev v2 pool. Dev mentioned a few posts ago that the wallet froze and he restarted it. I think the transactions will revert to pool wallet. Whether they will be sent out again I cannot tell. Hey ho, i guess i have the same problem... I have no account balance in my wallet, but i see under recent transactions the faucet payout. Maybe it's their old wallet... Anyhow, i want to start mining and studied the guide already. I have an empty 1TB hdd, made directions for miner, plotter etc. but it seems to me that i stuck on "account activation" thing... Also i have to send some burst out to get my account/wallet active, after this i can go on with plotter and miner... ?!? Thanks for your help! |

You are correct, when you get your acc in order you can proceed with plotting and mining PM me your address and I will send you 4 burst, which is enough to make an outgoing transaction and to set pool reward assignment. |

Not directly (at least I don't know of a way unless you trade directly with someone who has Burst) You can buy BTC then trade BTC for Burst on some exchanges like bittrex and poloniex |

I believe miners will loose their earnings if pool is lagging, right?
If it's loose, put some glue on it. |
