Re: [ANN] (WC) | WhiteCoin | NEWS: Foundation, investors, WhiteOS ☯ whitecoin.info
Hi everyone,
A wise man once said that a picture speaks a 1000 words... therefore I put together an infographic that outlines the timeline of events, milestones and information about Whitecoin that can be easily shared through social media or shared on websites etc.
Hope you like it!

Re: [ANN] (WC) | WhiteCoin | BIG NEWS: Foundation, investors & more ☯ whitecoin.info
The topic says 'investors... @ whitecoin.info' but I don't see any info about that when I go there 
What would you like to see in this respect at whitecoin.info?
Share your thoughts, ideas and suggestions as we continually make changes to the site to help provide new and current investors/community members with up to date information, developments and announcements both at .info and at our news portal whitecoin.info/news!
Looking forward to your feedback and ideas!

On another note, I think we need to re-address the coins cap.
When the coin was released there was to be a 330 Million coin cap, 300M to be distributed by mining and 30M to be distributed through staking.
I have currently sent a few feelers out to confirm that the coin still has there parameters.
The issue as far as I see it is that 30M coins distributed through staking only gives the coin a 5 year growth period (slightly less if all coins were staked and the interest was compounded)
I think we need to look at the coin having more like a 20 year growth period, keep the staking at 2% per annum but raise the ceiling to something closer to 420M

another BUMP
Sorry dont agree.
As soon as that was said people began to sell.
The coin is devalued if you do this..
Just my 2c worth
Suggestions and ideas are completely allowed to be voiced by all community members, hence why we are a community where every idea can be shared, discussed and debated... They are only ideas until the community decides that there is validity in an idea that is worth pursuing, then, the idea could go to a vote. At this time as I understand it, this is only an idea proposed by one community member at this time, I haven't seen any arguments for or against this at this time.
Why would we increase the growth period/market cap?
Perhaps in a year or so, we should revisit this?
What can you provide as an example to compare the proposed change to?
What purpose would increasing the cap provide to current investors?
I respectfully disagree with your point about when this was posted/the timing, someone has been trying to short for some time, its pretty easy to see imo however, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion!
For now, I also would disagree with an increase the marketcap/staking period and would suggest that down the road in a few years this topic be revisited...

Re: [ANN] (WC) | WhiteCoin | BIG NEWS: Foundation, investors & more ☯ whitecoin.info
well well would you look at that, bitcoin is going for ISO currency code compliancy.
now how about whitecoin

man its like the author read this topic :p

ISO compliant currency code:
this has to be done eventually, once financial institutions and business start using cryptocurrency (such as currency exchange rates published in news, banks, price tickers, airline/train tickets, etc), they are going to use ISO compliant codes whether you like it or not.
i'm reposting this from the old thread because i think it merits a further discussion:
voice you opinion on this issue as community members, its in your hands, no one is going to decide for you, if there's no interest it just stays as it is.
can we get a public voting on this going on whitecoin website? (not anonymous, and possibly requiring proof of owning whitecoins and have btctalk account that is at least 3 months old? to prevent fake votes)
with options and explanation about advantages of having ISO standards compliant currency code
this would be a good for inwallet voting with trusted user feature active
proposed codes:
1. XWT - ISO compliant
2. XWH - ISO compliant
3. XAL - ISO compliant (latin variant, could be a good choice because it would put whitecoin at the top of ISO compliant currency/exchange ticker lists)
4. WTC - not ISO compliant, also has negative USA stigma (world trade center)
5. WC - not ISO compliant, also has a negative EU/ASIA stigma (water closet)
option 3. is another idea, seeing as GOLD has currency code as XAU (from latin "Aurum" for Gold)
latin for white is "Albus" so another alternative would be XAL
i'd recommend to not hesitate and prolong this too much because there's a limit on currency code availability (seeing its "X + two letters" thats about 600 possible variations).
sources for reading about ISO currency code standards:

here's original post with some of the discussion:
Hi there,
i do also think, the acronym should change - just because what does mean here in europe.
But Im sorry I dont like any of your candidates, here is why:
1. - WTC its rly like world trade center - not a good brand
2.,3. - I just dont like the X there - also i dont understand the T and H...I just think its not the good way to move on
but 4. - from the CoinMill they used WHC - http://coinmill.com/USD_WHC.html I like it much more.
Please write your opinions - WHC doesnt incline to toilet, it isnt someway screwedup like XWT, XWH or sth. I think the acronym needs this two letters W(hite) and C(oin)
TW0R
whc is already taken by another alt, so thats out.
wtc has north american stigma attached to it
wc has european stigma attached to it
about using X as first letter - following international standards should be taken under serious consideration, if one of the goals for whitecoin is to get someday used as digital currency.
you cannot just use any first letter, you should follow international standards as published by the International Organization for Standardization, which delineates currency designators, country codes (alpha and numeric) and this ISO code list is used in banking and business globally (including exchange rates published in news, banks, airline/train tickets, etc)
the first two letters of the currency code are the two letters of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes (which are also used as the basis for national top-level domains on the Internet) and the third is usually the initial of the currency itself - USD = USA Dollar, CNY = China Yuan etc
X currencies are used for "supranational" currencies, that is currencies not associated with any country, and X is used instead of two letter country code.
take for example Bitcoin (which you know as BTC): it has X ISO code assigned - which is XBT (cannot start with BT because BT is reserved country code for Bhutan and also Bitcoin is supranational currency therefore starts with X) and is already used - for example financial exchange rate news do not list Bitcoin in BTC but in XBT.
this has to be done eventually, once financial institutions and business start using cryptocurrency (such as currency exchange rates published in news, banks, price tickers, airline/train tickets, etc), they are going to use ISO compliant codes whether you like it or not.

here's original post with some of the discussion:
someone pointed out IRL meaning of WC on casheer forums so i wonder what is the sentiment on updating acronym "WC"
perhaps could be voted and implemented at the same time as proposed "4. Reduce Confirmation Times"
candidate acronyms:
1. WTC
2. XWT (this would fit well with XBT)
3. XWH
(whc is already used by some other alt)
why x? "X" refers to ISO code for alternative currencies not controlled by any government.
like Gold is referred to as XAU, Silver (XAG), Palladium (XPD), Platinum (XPT)
ISO standards are set by the international standards organisation, and Bitcoin is already included as XBT (so this would be a good goal for WCF to work towards, establish some international standards recognition)

*Why not XWC ? non compliant?
* XAL (latin variant meaning?)
Therefore, my order would be:
1. XWC
2. XWT
3. XAL
Glad you keep this alive
Re: [ANN][CRYPT] CryptCoin x11 + PoS | P2P Anonymity | 0% Premine | now on MintPal!
!!!IMPORANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!! (Read below) 6/20/2014
Hello everyone, I am a developer working behind the scenes with the CryptCoin development team. I have two pieces of disturbing news that was brought to my attention recently.
1) The main cryptcoin developer included a hidden block within the coin (Block 38400), that he made me aware of containing more than the entire coin count to date.
- He offered me 15% of this block to keep quiet, but I will not be swayed by greed to commit such unethical behavior
- I have made mindfox aware of the situation (I'm assuming he wasn't aware before) and he has decided to leave the development team.
- Due to the last point made, the development of anon send will be suspended until further notice.
2) Bribing of btc-e admins by some of pumpers in the group.
Small snip of transcript: http://pastebin.com/Q76VrYdp
- I think this speaks for itself, keep in mind the BTC-e administration had no idea about the hidden block
3) Because of these revelvations we have changed the github over to more reputable hands, as well as removing the bad actors from the IRC channel.
I hope the community can work past these bad actors and this doesn't mean the end for the coin!

There was never any hidden block in WhiteCoin, there was just a dev that didn't care and only wanted btc... times have changed for WhiteCoin
stay tuned
the hash increase is simply a thing of beauty!Re: [PRE-ANN] - The WhiteCoin Foundation - Community Planning & Discussion

Staking is working on testnet... quick update from the Dev's:
"As soon as I know the wallet is stable and network is stable, I am going to work with the exchange owners to make sure they are all updated."
"At a very minimum, Cryptsy, Mintpal, and Poloniex will be updated before we push binaries to everyone"
"After that, pools will be contacted and updated."
"Finally, binaries will be built for OS X and Windows"

Re: [PRE-ANN] - The WhiteCoin Foundation - Community Planning & Discussion
Will honestly question Dev Teams motives if wallet is released in the middle of the night US time.
What if the wallet is finalized later tonight, would you rather them release it when ready or wait until xam North American time... just curious as generally when I do updates/releases its when the code is good to go
Re: [PRE-ANN] - The WhiteCoin Foundation - Community Planning & Discussion
Pivotal transformation, I am really happy to be associated with WC making these changes.
More important than price, is the community by which it will be judged and it seems the Whitecoin community is growing strong. I only have a minno's stake in WC, therefore a significant price increase/decrease won't affect my income... the community growth I am most interested in supporting.
In support of the Foundation, I am prepared to donate monthly Social & SEO services for the foundation and the betterment of the community as I believe that due to the wrongs of a few, the many should NOT be punished.
I also believe that based upon the support shown by other crypto's towards WC, it is worth my investment to help as I can as I strongly feel that WC will change the face of how coins can better work together, support each other as opposed to bashing, FUD and other blackhat tactics to try to destroy a coin and clearly they don't care about the 1000's of people that are affected by their actions, they only want to prove they have big balls o.0 this isn't why I became interested in crypto...
Special thanks to tf2honeybadger for your efforts
