This coin is NOT fake, and the coin recycler works, but the devs awhile back in irc said that the coin is open source, but the coin recycler part was not. So the old devs will have to give the code to the new ones.
i'm pretty sure he said here a few weeks back that he didn't mind if anyone looked at the code because it's open source and just API's interacting with different exchanges.
I think it's the wallet that was closed source. But that never got released anyways.
the actual wallet are not supposed to work with the console ?
Hi all,
The wallet is opensource - and I believe github holds latest release. This code includes the wallet non GUI 'console-based' client integration to coin-recycler (via webservice/json API). The coin-recycler website is not opensource (and is where most of the complexity would lie as it interacts with the exchange(s)....) as such we don't have access to this, only MAST devs do.
My question is how hard would it be to push a sell and then push a buy and withdraw? Seems pretty simple IMO
Edit: I have a lot of ideas I'm willing to toss to you guys if you can prove yourselves as developers... No closed source this time, once I've seen competence, I'll unleash all of my ideas to you, most are simple but for some reason or another it hasn't been implemented and are pretty good foundations for any currency
Whilst not a big fan of 'closed source' development - I can understand why the Devs took this approach. Building this functionality directly into the wallet allows every other coin to just copy and clone - you pretty much immediately lose the 'investment' Interesting to note I'm not aware of any other coins that have the OtherCoin-> Coin 'recycler' feature at the moment (Happy to be proven wrong) aware of the anon / coinjoin style mechanisms for washing coins - SameCoin -> SameCoin - however not what MAST does - so we had a good head start on a number of coins - just a pity this wasn't capatilised on, however the comment from someone earlier in the thread about Coin Recycler being mostly manual 'under the covers' starts to make a little more sense...
I agree with your sentiment exactly. My thing is, I think since there is no "company" that has a "board" to answer to, when the community gets antsy and impatient, bugs can cause developers to abandon projects rather than answer to an angry community.
While this is not the best response, it seems there is little room for error from the expectations of the community when the devs essentially get no beta-testing phase and have to many times release untested software. The reactionary nature of this free market is probably very scary and intimidating to developers, so I can truly understand why they just cut and run sometimes.
Now, this project has promise in my opinion. It also seems to have a large community full of reasonable and knowledgeable people. I understand the anticipation factor that comes with being involved in cryptos, but I think if the Mast Developers understood that the community IS legitimately behind them, it might make them come back or hand over the project more willingly. They seemed to be pretty transparent about most things up until this last week, so I am hoping they help resolve this situation.
