IMO, any thread I would start would also be moderated due to all the threadcrapping that goes on too.

Coming from people that want to moderate stuff and have some kind of "control" calling out people on self moding LOL

What...?

For those of you who don't know, i0coin was one of the older alternate cryptos that had a decent backing before being abandoned by it's developer. Among other issues, a crippling memory leak eventually made the client unusable and the coin died.

I'm currently in the process of fixing all these issues and bringing this coin back to life. To that end, I need people who still have the i0coin blockchain to help me beta test the new client. Inquire if interested!

This is pretty cool.

https://andarazoroflove.org/how-to-create-alt-coin-scrypt-clones-for-fun-and-profit-bitcoin-litecoin-secrets-exposed/ <<< Lots of reading = most people would rather pay Hazard's price even if they knew they could change the values.

I inquired to see if the price seemed reasonable. What was I quoted? 0.5 BTC. A price a lot of people can mine in under a week. Yeah, crap coins come, and crap coins go. So do we run around with our underwear outside of our shorts trying to save the world?

Some, I guess.

Others? They do the research.

Hazard's harm is no less or no more than the next person's.

If you want to read up and learn how to create an ALT, sweet.

If you want to hire someone to do it for you who has experience, then that's cool too.

Until Hazard DOES NOT DELIVER THE SERVICES THAT HE IS PAID TO DO, then all of the whiny, wishy-washy threads need to chill the fuck out.

Oh but thanks for that link on creating your own alt Wink

. +1 KudosCoin to you!

My point is not that he is making crap-coins, my point is that he is misrepresenting what he is doing as real coding. When he says:

Code:

"Want your own coin, but can't code...?"

He is clearly implying that he is offering a service providing REAL coding (what he is really doing is taking advantage of the fact that most people don't understand how easy it is to do what he is doing and representing himself as a REAL coder doing REAL coding for a fee.

0.5 BTC... That is more than $50 USD for him to edit numerical values in about 6 lines of code. He is not doing ANY coding, he is editing values.

He is ripping you off at 0.5 BTC and you are defending him while he does it.

Again, I could care less that he is creating coins with no new innovations, check my post history, I defend new scrypt clones all the time that have no new features. What I am complaining about is his misrepresentation of being a real coder providing a real coding service to the unknowing society at large.
