LOL, I thought the same thing when I saw the volume right now. Then I scrolled down, and saw......price hadn't changed much since last night.
I haven't had much time to post, there's a lot for me to catch up with daily with all these threads. I'm really excited about this givaway though, it is truly a  beautiful thing.
Everybody is welcome to put a CON address in their signature, and the CON may find it's way in there.

I've been watching it and sending to any addresses that are posted and GHMinting gets a new dump every time it's mentioned.

BUT, would be nice to get more people into the fold... I'm not brightest on how to get the word out there. Do we have anyone that can post on Hashtalk (if it ever comes back up)?

BUT, aside from the Muggle Relief Fund... are there any small projects 'hoped for' that maybe I can try to take a stab at? I have some background in programming, but nothing beyond php and css lately... is there a 'getting started' track to set up on a win7 system? What system do you all use to code in? I've used eclipse in the past, but we weren't like best buds. I was thinking I might look at blockchain voting or something not critical, but might be useful if it ever worked.  Anyone willing to do a small bit of hand holding or post me some links for getting started with crypto programming?

Crypto programming is surprisingly easy when you get into it, I think it's more about the cloning. If you can clone then you can code, it's as easy as that and there are lots of guides for it. You can do it on Windows, Mac or Linux depending on your flavor but Linux is by far the easiest to compile and bugtest with but I find Windows good if you want to do the coding itself and using Github.

I would like to do anon as per ring signatures implemented by ShadowCoin, that would be pretty cool, I already cloned half of it but got stuck on some of the stuff with the use of keys. I would also like to do a Blockchain swap as per the CLAMS method where all the addresses are coded into the first Block, if then you did it after 1 million Blocks then you just start back from Block 0 with the same amount and keep going. Wallet designing is good as well, the theme's are pretty easy and if you had some experience in backend programming then that would be a piece of cake and there is also work that could be done on the in-wallet Block Explorer, fine tuning little things, strengthening the network.
