[ANN] Syscoin- FINAL 2.0 LAUNCHED! *ENCRYPTION, MARKETPLACE, BTC INTEGRATION*

[sebastien1234]

you are correct. Syscoin can be merge mined with any scrypt coin. IMO mining Syscoin alone is a waste of hashrate since you can get just as many as merged mining but with merged mining you will also get other coins that you can sell to buy more Syscoin!

is there a pool for mining syscoin? thanks

Pools:

Merge Mining Pools (Use these, normal pools will not have much hash any more)

• http://give-me-coins.com/
• http://simpledoge.com
• http://bemining.net

Normal Pools (Note, these will likely not be the best way to mine Syscoin anymore. Use merge mining pools)

• http://sys.poolto.be
• http://syscoin.minerpools.com
• http://syscoin.cryptopools.com
• http://sys.coin-miners.info/
• http://syscoin.dutchminingpools.com/

is it still worth it to mine sys? i only have 1 280x. or maybe i should just buy more?

also i saw that the normal pools doesnt have hashrate cant i just solo mine sys? or merged mining pools also mine sys?

SYS is merged mined coin( any scrypt coin as i remember)

+100!

Also- I'm working on getting these beta3 clients together right now; Please be aware we do expect their to be some quirks and "doesn't work for me" in regards to how we've implemented URIs to make the SYS decentralized market purchase flow more user-friendly. Because URI handling is very operating-system specific we'll have fields for you to easily copy/paste the data into the Syscoin wallet if for some reason the URIs aren't working in your environment (this will all be in a blog post; tonight or tomm).

If you find the URIs (magic lil things that allow us to send commands to your local syscoin wallet from a website [blockmarket] using the syscoin:// protocol) do not work for you, please post in the thread we'll create and let us know your exact environment so we can try to address it for as many environments as possible.

No worries- and yes will definitely post a mini-guide in the blog post as well as a video of what you "should" experience when using the blockmarket beta 3 web UI with the Syscoin 1.5.2 beta3 QT wallet. We don't have any nodes on the testnet running ourself atm (because we were using them for testing in a controlled environment) but you should be able to connect to other nodes on the testnet.

Quick guide before a more in-depth one is up tomorrow:
1. Close your wallet.
2. Rename rename your syscoin.conf file to syscoin.conf.real
3. Create a new textfile called syscoin.conf, make its contents:

Code:

addnode=104.131.228.46
addnode=128.199.43.239
cakenet=1

4. Save and close, open up the beta3 wallet and wait for it to sync with those nodes

Please remember that the above method will force your normal wallet to run in testnet mode all the time, to switch back to the "main net" just close the wallet, rename the new syscoin.conf -> syscoin.conf.test and change syscoin.conf.real -> syscoin.conf and then relaunch the wallet.

Hope that helps! More detailed info tomorrow, and the UK side of the team should be awake soon and can help you out in Slack if you have further questions or issues getting up and connected to the testnet. We'll add additional nodes to the testnet tomorrow as well and post their IPs

*Note: What we refer to as "testnet" is actually cakenet- a special subnetwork similar to a testnet within Syscoin which allows for faster mining, coin maturity and testing. We use cakenet rather than testnet because of the increased testing speed (there IS a Syscoin testnet- which is less utilized). You can verify your on cakenet as your address will start with a "T" and running "getinfo" from the console will show cakenet: true, testnet: false (along with the other output from that command).

"In this release the purchase flow in the wallet has changed such that when you accept an offer, the wallet will now wait for the offer purchase to be confirmed and then it will allow you to pay for that item, thereby completing the transaction.

You can enter your shipping information directly into the QT client. You can also click the "Pay Now" button from the Syscoin Blockmarket web UI to automatically have your payment details passed to your local wallet and simply accept/pay from your local wallet for items being purchased from a given blockmarket web interface."

Beta 3 Marketplace Incentive: Upon recieving your purchase from the blockmarket via syscoin.market tweet a picture of your item to us via @syscoin on twitter, and we'll send you 5000 SYS as a thankyou (Follow us and we'll follow back, inbox us via Direct Message with your SYS address).

Why is that a pr or marketing strategy for more people to know about sys?

Isn't Syscoin ahead of these guys in terms of a decentralized marketplace? ( minus the chat system perhaps )

Yes... they also are trying to "extend" the chat system which is p2p based to do a marketplace... nodes must be always online for offers to remain visible.. it has drawbacks compared to blockchain approach.

Anyways they are just doing the photoshop conversion now to create an html template and i dont think they have a backend yet which is most the work, unless its not on their github.

there are many spies from shadowcoin community here
Just waiting to copy and paste the sys code
all sdc features was copied from other coins on a crap way
"html5 wallet" is i/o coin crap copy, mobile stake wallet is a librex coin crap copy, anon system is based on xst stealthsend white paper on a crap way and i'm sure that sdc market will be a blockmarket crap copy too

and sys dev team should copy on how they promote sdc.

the only thing lacking for this coin to rise is promotion

[kbroadfoot]

I have a 'feeling' Syscoin is ahead here... but I agree... that marketing they have ( and notice in articles like that one ) we don't have.... so perhaps, besides smart Devs, Syscoin needs a marketing guru to step in....

[xxxgoodgirls]

This is the first time I hear of Sys, I am gonna investigate further more, it looks interesting.
Cheers

If dev wanted promotion he can use this https://cryptothrift.com/auctions/marketing-seo/2000-twitter-followers-drip/

We're very aware of this but also that we need to make sure our offering / distinction from SDC is clear when we put out those marketing materials. SDC does NOT store offers on the blockchain, you have to have your node up and running at all times to sell your goods. SYS stores offers on the chain, so long as ANY Syscoin node is up, your items can be purchased. MAJOR DIFFERENCE.

Also, because SYS offers are backed by the chain they are also more secure in that they are harder to fake, forge, etc. There are other advantages to using SYS that I can't disclose yet due to ongoing partnership discussions but you're right- we do need to step up marketing now that "the race is on" but I still feel our tech is well ahead of the competition (decentralized-market wise).

I'm working on rolling out the Blockmarket Beta3 web UI right now, give me a few hrs and I'll have it and the blog post about it up

Also something to point out is that SDC is clearly targeting the 1% of the global market that wants to use their platform for (lets be honest)- "Darknet" purchases. While the SYS team makes no stipulations on what you can and can't sell on the SYS blockchain, nor do we have any control over it- we are really thinking and targeting SYS towards more mainstream use cases (the 99%)- thus integrations with Magento, Press2Shop, etc. Challenging eBay and Craigslist. Acting as a redundancy mechanism for mainstream merchants like Amazon- we WILL be approaching these parties when the time is right. These are the type of players you approach once you have a complete and holistic offering which Blockmarket is evolving into being along with the syscoin-api already publicly available in our GitHub repo.

While it is inevitable that SYS will probably materialize in a DNM fashion in one form or another [first], that's not our main target. That being said, the flexibility the SYS decentralized market implementation offers through public, private, and curated markets is another value-add that the competition's implementation does not support. We're watching the competition closely; SDC has good marketing, but I think other competitors that store their offers on-chain are a much bigger threat... and there aren't that many of them out there

We'll be reaching out to journos very soon now that beta 3 is more tightly integrated with the wallet, sorry but to me that motherboard article read like a paid plug piece for SDC. Good marketing for sure though! We're taking note, the value of marketing like that is not lost on us
