Oh well, at least it keeps it going at a nice, slow... but steady pace. ;-)

Good choice! :-)

The dev team have already shown they are committed to providing long-term support for their coins and it's a refreshing change to see a coin like this. Reminds me of mining BTC on a CPU back in "the day".

You might want to contact the admins at http://pock.io to get Bela added as a payment currency.

Last time I exchanged emails with them, they said they were going to be adding more coins soon.

Just a heads up :-)

Look familiar? LMAO

If you can PM me a point of contact with the team, I'd be able to discuss some things with them and work out the best way to make use of me and so I can find out for sure if the route considered (for Axis) is something I would like to tie myself up to as a long term commitment.

Regards.

Yeah, I used "quotes" as I am getting a little tired of waiting. If nothing happens soon, I'll probably have to step forward (as I said I would much earlier on in this thread) and present what I am willing and able to do. Downside to that, I would not be able to use the coin in several projects I am working on as it would cause a conflict of interest and loyalty. However, I guess that would be better than waiting for... well... whatever else may be done.

I was going to add a long report about this "company": About how the website is just a generic cookie-cutter template made by a "company" that doesn't even seem to have a site any-more. That domain name was purchased quite recently, so that's an indication that it may have been created solely to promote the coin and not as a real business site.

Also, how there is no real information about the company on that site and how it all just seems to be there to add hype to the coin. No company contact details, images the seem to come from a stock image provider and that's just about it.

I was also going to add some insight on how things don't add up about their plans for the long term development of the coin. Including a planned fork? Why plan to fork the coin if it gains acceptance? Seems very odd.

Also, no real indication of how much pre-mine and the maths used to work out diff/etc. No reason to hide this unless they don't want people to know until it's too late and you're already mining it, while they dump that fat pre-mine into the exchange.

Claims of sponsorship but I couldn't find any official announcement that even mentions sponsorship by "Wacminerals LLC".

Anyway, I was going to do all of that and more but, for some strange reason, I lost the will to live.

I think I will pass by this coin and very quickly.

I may be totally wrong but this looks more like a "Whack Job" than a "Waccoin".

Good luck!

Nice offer, but there is a queue in front of you.

However, I am sure there is always room in the "team" for those with skills and knowledge.

AML regulations?

Well, that would be good at some point in the future. Right now, I'm talking about avoiding the issue of putting businesses and exchanges at risk of being seen to willingly make use of a method to launder money.

IMHO... Anon does absolutely nothing to assist in legitimate trade. It's just a tool to hype.

Simply put, if anon comes to Axis, I will not be able to support it or make use of it in my own enterprises.

But, whatever is decided, it should be done as a community.

Regards.


Edit:

Also with due respect, I am a "legitimate business" and know a few others that are watching this coin, solely because of the promises of no anon, no "foundations" and all the rest of that stuff which makes "legitimate businesses" cringe.

I haven't looked at it so can't say one way or another.

I'll try to get some time to give it an examination.

If you give me a poke before you add DNS seeds, I'll see if I can contribute a long term node that you can include.

I can only talk for myself, but I am very serious about this coin. As long as it doesn't become like so many others... All hype and full of tripe!

I was buying in from the launch and I continue to do so. I might need a bag full to allow me to use them for a project but only if it doesn't go down the same path with anon and all that bad jazz.

The pool admins probably need to update their wallet but as it no longer PoW, it may not be a high priority for them. Just a guess.

Probably a good time for their developer to learn how to generate their own genesis block. LMAO

It get's a little boring when you see so many "Search and Replace" coins made by "devs" that either do not know how or simply can't be bothered to make their own genesis.

Of course, ShireCoin is not alone in this regard. LOL

The mods of BitCoinTalk can and will close threads that have too many wallet addresses in posts. It's nothing to do with the people in this thread but what the admins of the site decide.

Good point LOL

Yeah. It is safe to say that any coin released these days that still has IRC code in it, is indeed based on old BTC/LTC code (pre many bug-fixes).

I think you are right to suggest going back to base code and adding Axis into that. In the long-run, it would be more prudent to do that IMHO. That is, if there is going to be any changes done at all.

It is still pretty good code but if there's talk of new features, then getting the basics sorted out and working as reliably as possible first should be priority.

Maybe this is the reason why so many alts have a short life-span?

Shove as much "stuff" as possible into a coin so it can be hyped to the heavens for short-term profit on the exchanges.

The reason I chose Axis was due to the fact it was not going to be just another "SnR, PnD clone-coin with bloat".

If Axis goes down that road, it will be just another one of those. :-(

I wouldn't be able to use Axis as a main coin or promote it to businesses if it had those anon features.

You are right, it does seem to be all the rage but mostly caused by trollbox hypsters using whatever they can to artificially inflate perceived value so they can gain more short-term trading profit (IMHO).

This is even more of an issue when the anonymity function is applied and processed at the exchange. That seriously puts the exchange in jeopardy of being accused and investigated for money laundering. If you read the laws, you will see they purposefully avoid the use of the term cash, money, etc so anything of value can be considered under those laws.

Generally speaking, there are too many "features" being added without real consideration. There are many things that can be done to improve the basic code first so any extra stuff can be built on very solid code.

Just my thoughts.

Some things I would like to see re-implemented in the code: GUI wallet console, RPC and Linux daemon commands.

addnode "node" "add|remove|onetry"
getbestblockhash
getstakinginfo
getsubsidy [nTarget]

Also return the correct values for "hashing" and "Dif" for PoW/PoS (Yeah, I know PoW is over).

EDIT: Remove all traces of IRC and use DNS seeds instead. (Very important) :-)
