BBQCoin, the coin you want to eat.

[K1773R]

I built bbqcoind and bbqcoin-qt from source for Ubuntu with the latest graphics and stuff from this repo https://github.com/overware/BBQCoin

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7771567/bbq/BBQCoin-build-overware.tar.gz

Binaries are included in the bin/ directory

I appreciate your constructive feedback

 Can you guys tell me a trustworthy website that shows the value of bbqcoin and updates frequently. I think for now bbqcoin is valued by public instinct without a decent trading website.

Virexa.com will be online trading bbq in this days

[Professor James Moriarty]

 But they are not doing it right now. So I want to sell some bbqcoins but I dont know the correct price to do so.

There is an asset value file uploaded periodically (usually once a day or twice a day or so) at

http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/latestrates.inc

It is in a form suitable for use as an include file for shell scripts.

You can tell which asset a particular instance of the list is denominated in because that asset will be shown as having a value of 1.00000000

Thus from the fact that this one shows DVCrate as 1.00000000 you can tell it is denominated in DeVCoins.

You can then divide things by whichever of the other rates you wish to find the value as denominated in whichever one you actually want to see prices in terms of.

However, I think you will find that BBQcoin is not yet reflecting there some of the prices people have been asking lately on the forum.

Hopefully soon we will smooth out that glitch and see some more-up-to-date BBQrates there.

There is no real "correct" price with any of these coins, it is what you think it is worth.

Is the price of Bitcoin correct at the moment? Nobody knows as tomorrow it could double in price or crash.

This is the nature of crypto-currency and the risk we all take.

[johnmatrix]

Hey everybody who i sent message about the exchange, we should talk this in a irc channel or something

[cryptocancer]

Hmmm... Whats the plan guys  <nub wants in

[CaptChadd]

Don't worry about an exchange. Talks are in place for bbqcoin to get onto one.

It is going to happen and I will post the details when they are 100% confirmed.

[markm]

Meanwhile I have been getting one bitcoin per ten thousand BBQcoins lately, quite a jump in price from the half a bitcoin for one hundred thousand BBQcoins I got some time ago.

the Admin of bter is asking for a donation to get the coin on it... if you are interested

I know what you mean, I sold a few for that price too.

I have repaired bbqcoin files with the help of figroll. The issue seemed to be incorrect checkpoints which prohibited blocks from syncing past a certain point (since the hash was incorrect, effectively forking the network.)

I am still working on getting functional windows binaries, but I think having linux bbqcoind and bbqcoin-qt is a good step for anyone developing applications for this coin. This should hopefully give you a good jumping off point. (Compiled on Ubuntu 64-bit)


I will keep you posted as more developments are made.

edit:
here is a better difficulty graph I managed to do using this bbqcoind (and getting more than 3 digits of precision after the decimal like I got from Abe) on a log scale. Using this method on a log scale, I was able to get more detail at the very very low difficulty levels. Clearly we had a miner that dropped out around thanksgiving 2012 as it was pretty constant for a long time.

Compare to the standard plot, you see a lot of data is blown away by how huge our difficulty is lately. Anyone doubting this is picking up steam is missing an opportunity.

edit2: added interactive google chart (had to take average of 10 blocks, so 39000 data points instead of 390k as google has hard 400k cell limit )

repaired? there was no need to fix anything. mark fixed his checkpoints in some days and since then no problems exist.

You are mistaken. We may be talking about two different forks of the same code though. The checkpoints applied for block 86425 was 00000b64041067a9cc8ad4b84e6a638ced0513319724bae7ceacbaf97380b4ae and this was the block that was hanging on the latest code when compiled. As can be seen from a search on http://bbqabe.rainbowdashh.tk/search?q=86425 for block 86425, the hash is 5bb676c3ea2d9cdc2589e7fa53874c425317aa9dadf0ae503fb7cf804cab9762.

Correcting this, fixing the block 303403 checkpoint and adding a checkpoint for 350000 upon compiling the client works as expected. I was able to transfer coins in and out of it in my testing and now released the latest.

this has already been fixed long ago:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=93437.msg1552818#msg1552818
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=93437.msg1570874#msg1570874 (look at the 2 next posts of markm)

he incorectly used the ProofOfWork hashes as checkpoints, but on litecoin (since bbqcoind is a litecoin fork) and i took some time until he saw that its wrong (had to post it server times tough...). afterwards he fixed it and released new tarballs.

Well the latest fork I was told to work on with updated graphics must have been forked from before he fixed it because it was broken before i just fixed it. So the binaries I posted are functional with the newer graphics

[markm]

Mmmm aren't graphics part of what my last updated included?

I vaguely remember something about graphics.

Yeah, see https://github.com/knotwork/bbqcoin/tree/master/src
