Re: [ANN][PHS] ...Updated 2/17/14, Alchemist: The Philosopherstone Monitoring Tool
ok, thank you . Pls ignore the PM. Maybe you can also answer my newbie question[just posted] on the main PHS forum

I can't replicate the error in Windows 7 32 bit, except if the config file is missing or corrupt.
Make sure to unzip all the files from the original zip into the same folder. If it starts after you edit the config file, then that configuration is invalid.
You could try redownloading the original zip.
Does it happen on the very first run? Does it happen after the license screen?
If diff > 3, then every block can be an anomaly, and therefore all an attacker needs to do is raise the difficulty above 3 while holding 51% of the hashing power (setting the difficulty as desired would be fairly easy - again by abusing KGW and nTime), to ensure every block is an anomaly.
Aren't you glossing over the all an attacker needs to do is raise the difficulty above 3 while holding 51% of the hashing power a bit? Exploiting this aspect of the flaw is out of the reach of the vast majority of miners, and even so, not a lot of attackers could use it simultaneously. In practice, wouldn't this just result in an arms race among attackers vying for the 51% making the whole thing not profitable?
Hey guys, today there is this religious thing among my people where you have to give away things you have, even to strangers. So I sent some CGA to the last five addresses I saw on this thread, hope you don't mind.
Then I shall share Richese with you...

using Win 7 Starter 32bit. ...'Alchamist has stopped working' immediately on executing.
any solutions. Thanks

I don't have an immediate answer. You do need to have .net 2.0 sp 2.0 installed. You can check this with this program, but I'm pretty sure all W7 has that:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Info/dotNETInspector.shtml
I will work on it and post back in a day or two, hopefully with a version that works on your system.
So I am thinking of going forward with The First Order of the Sacred Anomaly. We need the spread the good word of the Sacred Anomaly. At first I was thinking of setting it up as a pyramid scheme, with me on top of course, but I didn't want to hurt the coin's reputation. How about if I set the cult up as a 'proof of CGA stake' to attain membership. If you have a certain amount of CGA you can be in my upper echelon? I don't know what the benefits of membership will be yet, I am still fleshing out the idea. Don't worry, this isn't going to be one of those mass suicide cults. Well, not unless the price of CGA goes down a little.
Except for the second to last sentence, this sounds like a pitch from Wolong's crew.
Re: [ANN][PHS][PoS] PhilosopherStone | Fast | PoW-PoS | ASIC Resistance | Messages
Wallet will not sync.
Of the 40+ stones I mined with a GPU rig, only 21 remain. It seems that coins get "magically" subtracted from my wallet.
I'm getting "interest" payments sent to my wallet every hour, app hung, rebooted, restarted wallet, won't sync.
I think this coin is officially destroyed. Nice try though.

Alarmed by your post, I fired up my wallet, checked balance, synced. All my thousands of stones were there intact, app is fine, sync was smooth and quick. Not sure what is the cause of your problem, but to immediately conclude that it is a system-wide failure of the coin - that strikes me a bit overblown. Check more deeply on the home-front before making global assumptions. Re-install with latest wallet upgrade, take a chill pill.
So you have no solution except to say that YOUR shit is ok. I'm fifty years old. I've been an information technology professional for almost twenty years. My shit NOT ok, bro. I've been following this coin very, very closely, and it is fucked up.
If you're sincerely seeking help, you need to supply more information than the wallet won't sync therefore the coin is destroyed.
The wallet takes a while to download the blockchain, but I've done it a couple of times in the past few days in VMs and haven't encountered any problems. That doesn't mean you're not having problems, but if the problems were widespread, there would likely be more complaints. Your "subtracted" stones might simply be because you don't understand how PoS and the blockchain works. Again, any widespread "subtraction" of coins would likely be reported.

Hi All,
Tell me what's so cool about this coin and why I should mine it. I have 10MH available.
Let me know.

The proof-of-stake benefit is considerable if you hold your stones. Accumulate enough stake and you can reap (POS 'mint') new coins faster than you could POW mine them. Less volatile than many cryptos as there is less dumping (likely due to the inducement to keep one's stake). In essence, a stabilizing factor is inherent in the very design of the coin. This is an intelligent coin. Not another copy-and-paste litecoin knock-off. Nor is it a coin with gargantuan block rewards flooding the crypto ecosystem with a gazillion meaningless new trash-coins worth microscopic fractions of a penny each. That may be exciting for noobs, but it gets old fast. So it's a coin worth mining, and I'd also recommend buying outright. Sell off your crappy coins and move into quality. Really, this and Vertcoin are about the only two I can take seriously (barring Litecoin and BTC, of course).
Thx
It is like peercoin then.
I was thinking what's stopping someone from making super POS coin that would generate 2000% or more per year. Why not?
Interest rates over 100% compound exponentially. Hold ten coins at 2000% interest, compounded monthly, and at the end of one year you have 1.3 million coins. At the end of two years the coin becomes self-aware.
Re: [CGA] Cryptographic Anomaly - The Elusive Coin - NOW ON ALLCOIN.COM!!!
The most natural way for sustainable demand is to make the coin circulate as currency, not just being used as investment asset - e.g. to be possible to spend it on goods and services.
Persuading businesses to accept it should probably be the next big step for CGA. This would be hard to achieve, but still - if the target is some niche where CGA could fit in naturally, the task may be a bit easier.
Of course, whether to go in that direction is up to Sawedoff to decide. It would require a lot of planning and community support, but my opinion is that even expressing such intent for the future would get CGA higher on the trustworthiness scale.

If you can actually do something tangible that's good, but just having a couple token sites or selling logo'd flashdrives and keyfobs is just the community trying too hard to convince itself it's "currency." Let's not kid ourselves, the game of alts has been reduced to I turned on my video card; I demand the free money that I'm entitled to.
It's hard to get mass circulation of a coin when there's few in circulation. If http://inceptioncraft.net:2750/chain/Cryptographic%20Anomaly/q/totalbc is correct, the money supply increase has only been in the triple digits since it hit the exchange. I'm skeptical 14,000 coins is sufficient to build economic activity around.
Two more exchanges to look at are Atomic-Trade and Vircurex. Vircurex is an old exchange, by far the best and most professional I've used, but they're selective about the coins they add. Atomic-Trade has an esoteric assortment of coins and friendly staff, so CGA might be a natural fit. Both allow trade in USD.
Re: [CGA] Cryptographic Anomaly - The Elusive Coin - ON IT'S FIRST EXCHANGE!
I have an idea that which I would like to share.
Wouldn't it be good if the algorithm of CGA receives a name? In my opinion this would help with the coin's publicity. The early supporters already see it is a genuine idea, but it would be good if the message of originality can be conveyed by naming it with some catchy phrase. Something like 'Anomaly-based inverse adjustment' or 'Savedoff supply attenuation'.
Anyone likes the idea?

SIANE = Sawedoff's Inverse ANomaly Engine?
How would that be pronounced? See-Ayne?
That would be the subject of great internet debate, possibly rivaling the raging .gif pronunciation war.

I believe PHS hit number one on Coinchoose earlier today. It's down to #15 now.
To clarify an earlier statement, Philosopherstone (PHS) has nothing whatsoever to do with Harry Potter. PHS takes its name from a legendary alchemical substance called the Philosopher's Stone which is capable of turning base metals into gold.
And it should be in everyone's top 6.
Re: [ANN][PHS] ...Introducing Alchemist: The Philosopherstone Monitoring Tool
Testing a new version now, so unless I find a bug I can't spin as a feature, it'll go up within a day or so.
Improvements:
1. Gets BTC data from www.bitcoinaverage.com and not Mt. Gox.
2. Exposes the wallet port and Cryptsy marketID strings in the config file, so Alchemist can be configured to potentially monitor any currency on Cryptsy with a wallet running on the local machine.
3. Fixes losing contact with Cryptsy forever requiring restart.

Re: [ANN][SBC] From Death Comes Life – The Rebirth of StableCoin - URGENT UPDATE
oh well, we have a long way to go yet. when artos releases what he has in store this thing is going to go hyperbolic
Yeah, hyperbolic
I don't know what this word means, if only there were some way to google it and find out.
Re: [ANN][SBC] From Death Comes Life – The Rebirth of StableCoin - URGENT UPDATE
shake down abit sellers, and will bring sbc up again 
Always dumb morons love to sell me sbc cheap.
As a famous coin would say, sell orders, much negative dent, expend so little BTC Always dumb morons love to sell me sbc cheap.
Thats it guys, Ive decided to go in again. 3btc buy order coming in on cryptsy as soon as it confirms...watch for me!
Edit: gweisoh and Molitor, this was the weakest attempt I have ever seen, but thanks for the laugh
You too? I'm trying to transfer my 17 btc into cryptsy as soon as possible to buy as much sbc as I can get my hands on!
So expect a pump sometime in July?
Re: [ANN][SBC] From Death Comes Life – The Rebirth of StableCoin - URGENT UPDATE
Guys, buy into the pump if you want, but its still foolish. If you do, sell it quick, because its a pump based on nothing.
It's like pumping up a flat bicycle tire with a leaky stem, you can go from dead flat to barely spongy, but you rapidly hit the point where all the air just squirts out the side, so you give up and drive the car instead.
Re: [ANN][SBC] From Death Comes Life – The Rebirth of StableCoin - URGENT UPDATE
you haven't seen anything yet
I haven't seen anything at all.
Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.5 Released!
Hello Dogecoin was removed from Cryptsy so I want to ask you whats the best exchange web site (doge to btc or dog to usd/eur) with minimum issues and good experiences? Thanks
I use Vircurex primarily now. I've never had so much as a blip of a problem with them. www.vircurex.com. Of course, YMMV.
Did I miss the Cryptsy announcement?
