What is all this shouting about coinapult integration ?? I registered myself a new account with them and there is not such a thing as a dash integration .You can only trade with btc on them so why this bullshits lies about dash integration on coinapult?

Is there another update incoming soon? 0.12.1.2 ?

Any info on flipping the switch ?

I was downloading the wallet, can someone please tell me that how much size is of the blockchain data that I will have to synchronize to use the wallet, like about 1gb or something like that

By Abstain, I meant, "did not vote yes or no", rather than actually voting to Abstain (I didn't even know that was an official option)...

I feel that if there are only 1400/3400 MNs voting, it is because the vote was only open for 3 days, and they did not see it, rather than chose not to vote...

I think if you have a vote open for 14 days instead of 3, you will see a higher turnout...

One budget had over 2000 yes votes, so we know there are at least that many MNs (votes) wanting to participate...

Anyone?

Put another way, Bitcoin is anonymous in
the following sense: It is as though every bank transaction and every
bank-account balance is known to anyone with an Internet connection;
the only information that is unknown is who owns each bank
account, something that can be inferred from user interactions.
Clearly, such “anonymity” is unacceptable for everyday economic
life, and therefore additional safeguards must be built in.28 For many (if
not most) existing VCs, including Bitcoin, the current process of maintaining
anonymity amounts to learning a degree of cyber-operational
security or “tradecraft,” which seems unrealistic for the layperson.
....
"It is difficult to evaluate the ultimate security (and usability) of
Zerocash, as it has not been tested in the crucible of real-world use
and evaluation, though its theoretical mechanisms have more rigorous
security proofs than virtually all existing VCs. By contrast, Dashcoin is
currently being used and seems to be reasonably anonymous (certainly
more so than using Bitcoin without additional privacy-enhancing technology),
though it has only been in existence for about a year as of this
writing; its current market capitalization much less than that of Bitcoin,
thus an equal comparison is difficult to make.4"



...I'm bolding the part of "tradecraft" and layperson because I'd really like to see out of the box anonymity in both the IP part and the transaction part. If you give the layperson an out-of-the-box anonymity, you are tapping a much broader audience than the geek crowd who can set up their own IP anonymity/obfuscation.

Let's do some simple math, shall we? Let's assume that Evan was the ONLY miner for the first 500 blocks (that's the worst case scenario... you can't assume he mined more than 100%). If we simply determine the network hash rate for the first 100 blocks (using the networkhashps command in the Dash wallet), you can see that there was only 12.6kh/s... this is clearly one (very weak) CPU and the first 100 blocks were mined in a few minutes... it probably took some time to add the other machines he and his friends had at the ready. But from blocks 100-500 the average jumps to 711.2kh/s and appears pretty steady that whole time. Let's assume that this 711.2kh/s is Evan and his friends. They would have gotten about 245,000 of the first 250,000 coins mined (through block 500).

By block 500, things start to change. A few others are clearly joining them by this point, but assuming the 711 of the 895 kh/s were theirs from block 500-600, then they still got 79% of those blocks too (worth about 40,000 Dash). If you repeat this process to figure out the share of each block of 100 they got, you get something like the following:

EDIT: The coin start and coin finish are the beginning total coins in circulation and ending coins in circulation for each set of 100 blocks... so the difference is how many were created for each 100 block section... multiply that by the dev's share and you can see where I get the numbers from.

Each row represents 100 blocks. As you can see, by about block 1,000, the hashrate was up dramatically... this is consistent with posts on BTC of many other miners saying they were up and running. There are a couple of points at which network hash drops, consistent with the fact that a couple of bug fixes went out which probably caused Evan and other miners to stop mining for a brief time to update. By block 2300, Evan and Co's share was probably less than 1% of the network hash rate, by which time these estimates would put them at about 511k coins. After that, there is little chance they got a decent share... maybe another 6,000 coins for the next 1,000 blocks, but basically the party was over by then, so to speak. So if you assume they got about 518k coins by the time they were consistently getting less than 1% of the coins, that represents less than 8.8% of the current number of coins in circulation... which is very consistent with the statements from Evan that "all of the founders" hold less than 10% of the current supply combined.

These assumptions are generous to the "instamine" haters for several reasons:

1) It assumes that Evan was the ONLY miner for the first 500 blocks, which we know isn't true. There was at least one other developer at that time, I believe a friend of Evan's, but I'm not sure... so the "instamine" would have been split at least between two people
2) It assumes no one else was mining for the first 500 blocks (which may be the case... we'll never know, but I make this assumption in the interests of being conservative)
3) It assumes that Evan and Co had absolutely no down time for updating their miners, which is impossible... any downtime would reduce these assumptions
4) It assumes that once huge amounts of mining power joined beginning at block 500 that Evan didn't start experiencing an elevated level of rejects... this is unlikely as well since blocks were being created so rapidly at that time - literally seconds apart on average - that he and many others reported rejects, getting on wrong chains, having to reset, etc. Evan would have no way to be immune to these issues caused by the rapid creation of the blocks and network latency, so the true "networkhashps" is clearly understated during that period because many blocks were rejected and not counted.
5) It assumes that he never sold any Dash

Based on the data, I see no reason to disbelieve Evan and the stated amount of coin that he has. In fact, the data seems to support everything he's said.

Evan is truthful.

Does anyone know where's the Dash folder on OSX located?  Thanks

I know that but I want to know more about the video creation itself.  I see other uses for something like this in my world.

Can someone put this into a context I can understand?  I realize these are commits, but why do branches go away, why does it grow?  Very interested in what software created this.

Loved it. 

one of the MN that i have for my shareholder haven't been payed, its like 6th day and no income

what could couse this?

my other 2 MN's are payed in time with no problems at all

Anyone care to elaborate on why the dashd command wont be available? I'm not sure I completely understand? Also if not available, the other options you say would be dashd - daemon or just daemon? Sorry I'm so noob but I expect a lot more of us to come out of the wood works when this actually happens.

Migrating to 0.10 bitcoin will split "old" dashd to 1) dashd - daemon 2) dash-cli - lightweight cli program to run rpc commands

EDIT: and "dashd some_command" will not be available anymore
