Still offering bounties for solar sign up or referring a new sign up:

$50 for #1
$30 for #2
$20 for #3+

Chris,

Is the bounty still open? If so, I am looking to push it through my commercial blogs and therefore would like to know how to track affiliate processing e.g. do I give new customers a 'sign up' code?

Regards,

Cranky

I'm working on it will let you know the timing soon.

Glad to here you are still working no this project  

yeah carbon is becoming an increasingly hot* space and quality solutions are still quite scarce. It's probably one of those serendipitous-in-hindsight moments of the having just the right 'thing' at just the right time. In it's current embodiment, the complete GreenCoin ecosystem probably is not that exact "thing," but it could be a sort-of-maybe with some rather simple upgrades and modifications, assuming the underlying principle is a good one. The good news is time isn't really against us yet as it doesn't seem to be the right 'time' yet either. Half of us are watching to see if Kardashian's butt grows another size and the other half is listening to a guy who brings snowballs into the Senate. Granted there is a time when an opportunity passes by and it's lost, but we are nowhere near that point yet. IMO, carbon will probably 'peak' in the middle of the next decade. [What I mean by 'carbon' here is the intensity of the human focus on the problem less so than literally the amount in the air, or other scientific quanta]

I'm going to continue to work on some things and roll out improvements on the front end - I mean it's not like the half-busted coin is going anywhere (the merged mining is one of it's bigger strengths). My level of aptitude precludes me from working on the coin itself but if some interest takes hold and we raise some financing then we can put professional dev services on the table, and it could at that point just be a matter weeks. At this time we can appropriately assess what the ultimate solution is going to be - i.e., do we fork the current coin with upgrades or go with a premium-octane coin full-reboot (and offer a GRE trade in) as was sort of attempted previously.

I am still advocating for trying to get a few more organic sign-ups, hence the previous post advertising bounties. So if anyone knows anyone with solar just have them sign-up. Maybe help them seed the wallet node (probably the trickiest part to GreenCoin still is using the wallet client). But that's really the extent of it, I mean, the solar/web part of it is literally you periodically type in the reading on your meter (and even this is online for most people nowadays anyhow). For this small effort you receive coins - sure there not worth much, but they are yours and you never know what might happen when an ecosystem grows up...

So I can do some front end snazziness, and possibly raise financing for a much bigger push if we get to 100 sign-ups or so, but I really really need a few people to reach out and get a few sign-ups, that would really help out in a huge way.


(* apologies...)

Thank you for the update Chris.

Just a thought.
Have you considered launching your coin/asset on something like Bitshares?

You can issue assets/coins without the need to develop from scratch and value them against BitUSD BitCNY or BitBTC.

Blatant plug - yes, but worth a thought

The one asset coin I looked into was XCP (counterparty) but it didn't look like a good fit. IM me more info about how you think a bitshares would work. I'm always open to ideas.

I added these to the OP, thanks for listing them.

GRE has been removed from Allcoin?

yes, it had been in their announcements for awhile

Happy "anniversary:" Block #500,000 came on June 4, 2015, 11:52:23

Some fun stats:

Block 1:               6/8/2014 03:48
Block 500,000:     6/4/2015 11:52
Days passed:       361.34
Seconds:             31,219,436
Average s/block:  62.439
Coins gen. per s:  32.031


We were targeting block 500k to be the 1 year point, so we were pretty close, considering some of the history (low and variable pre-merge mining and then implementing merge mining).

I'll update the thread with a "State of the Union" for GreenCoin this weekend which coincides with the actual calendar anniversary of GRE. In the meantime, I know it's sad Bittrex and Allcoin dropped GRE. In fact, it's actually kind of lame because it cost $2300 aggregate just to get listed in the first place. But anyway, I know a couple of folks (including me) have had trouble getting the final withdrawl out of Allcoin. Hammer on them with support tickets; don't let that guy keep your coins because he's can't be bothered to pay them out. I'll post the result of my support ticket but it has been > 24 hours and I haven't heard anything.

Is block explorer updated?

Hi GreenCoin people,

I'm the developer of EnergyCoin and work on the same concept you are working on.
If you want to see what I'm doing check the post in my topic:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1028941.msg11555234#msg11555234

Maybe we can work together?

Yes they did

How are people rewarded, that is, how does EnergyCoin promote a green economy?

[biodieselchris]

is anyone seeing double transactions?

[james42]

I'm not Chris

[biodieselchris]

I'm wondering about this coinbase transaction issue again. here's a coinbase transaction description.

For GreenCoin, here is a proper transaction:
http://gre-be.cloudapp.net/index.php?transaction=3bb2fe0b2f7f3f419c9d49888326b2bbbf987e89be334cfaf37a21cf7c9bf96e
note the Coinbase: 041199461b010152
and Sequence: 4294967295


and here is an improper transaction:
http://gre-be.cloudapp.net/index.php?transaction=bf6ebc011abcdba2a22470387bd270896cd14e564c9407f8638933bc4da2eef4

[james42]

I would have thought you'd have plenty already Chris :-) If you have no limit on how many you can buy then why not spend 0.2 BTC getting the coin added to Empoex?

Is block explorer updated?

Block explorer updated. It is still currently located here: http://gre-be.cloudapp.net/index.php

Mostly the features are cosmetic though there is one cool feature where you can click on the coins sent and it'll calculate the current amount of CO2 those coins represent (you can't "click back" yet but I will be updating this over time. I am doing this myself so I have to learn javascript, css, and php).

To see it in action, the most recent GreenCoin payout is here:

Code:

As an example, for Producer 8, he received coins in this transaction, which was part of this block (by clicking on the blockhash link). This transaction is part of block height #536451, so if you knew this you could type just the block number into the box on the front page.

Let me know features people want to see and I'll keep a list and try to do them in a one by one fashion.

#1: Fix the coin button so it goes back and forth between coins paid and kg Co2 (and thirdly toggle between price/value, if GreenCoin gets relisted on exchanges).
#2: List the last 20 non-coinbase transactions on the FP
#3: Separate the main coins from the "change" coins in a transaction
#4: List all transactions by address
#5: (etc)

Just fired off a support ticket - will let you know how they respond!
