Showing 20 of 80 results by abit2slo
Hmmmmm... Thus our favorite 80% are distributed among at least (sic!) 7 teams with unknown amount of people in each one.
Yeap. So BCN dev's statement about their inability to affect coins mined before (as coins are held by many people) sounds more reasonable now.
Let's assume there were 10 teams with 10 members each. The easiest calculation show us at least 100 early stakeholders. Not as bad as it seemed from the first glance.
There might be more than 100 people even among those teams. Moreover, nobody can tell how many more parties could not even be identified. It could be up to several hundreds of permanent miners not mentioning the occasional ones.
BTW this is related to my recent point on Bitcoin where 1000 people have roughly 40% of the emission at the moment. Concentration of the coins was even higher a couple of years ago. It seems like there is nothing unusual in BCNs coin distribution among early miners.
Agreed. BCN is not volatile at all since it got a lot of emission for exchange rate stability. Besides, a lot of different groups are supporting this coin and centralised dump is clearly not an option.
LOL. With current price dump is not possible. Price officially hit the bottom.
good time to buy some. and that's what I do!
WTS 4M BCN for 1BTC
yea me to, I will actually go 5M for 1BTC.. but either way there is an exchange nowhttps://cryptonote.exchange.to/
buy/sell there its much easier.
Yes, but
Volume (BTC) 3.1 - it's a little bit funny. Seems nobody uses this exchange for bcn trading.
For example monero market volume is 26.47 btc
hmmm. still no expected pump and dump from BCN devs.
price update: 1m = 0.25 BTC
hey abit2slo I pm'ed your this morning haven't heard back.. you still buying?
sorry, didn't notice - replied.
buying BCN: 1m for 0.4 BTC. Buying until I say stop.

How can I find out the hashrate?
"show_hr" command in daemon for your individual hash rate and diff/120 (block time) for the whole net's hash rate
I have synchronized blockchain. But whenever I try to refresh my wallet, it says 'Daemon is busy'.
How do I resolve this?

are you 100% sure that it was synchronized? have you seen the green line "synchronized OK"?
BCN hash is ramping hard. 2014-Apr-29 20:28:03.265460 [P2P0]BH: 468920, DIFF: 2721161, HR: 22676 H/s Is there a 'secret' optimized miner? 
which miner?
Now, what again tells you that this isn't a pump-dump?
By the way, no, making a coin easily pump-and-dumpable does not make it profitable. It makes people catch on and ruin its chance to hit a marketplace.
Nothing, only assumptions. But i just can`t believe that someone 1. made such a tech for pump-dump 2. wait for 2 years for pump-dump.
illogically
Any way its open, and anyone is granted to use it and clone it to make something on their own taste.
Mining your own technology is the perfect way to test your code and ensure stability. Not destroying this data is the perfect way to both release your technology, and potentially make a lot of money - all the while maintaining your reputation by not addressing it.
Yeah, it's open, and clones have been made for the purpose of fairness, but I'd just like to say that that doesn't dismiss the opposition.
it takes one to know one.
arrrrrr smooth
you are such a killjoy. we all here know your point of view and almost learned it by heart. just because you have repeated it 1000000 times everywhere. for god's sake, stop it! it so irritating.
nobody force you to mine and trade BCN. if you don't like the original coin so go and play with the copy that you have made for your own pleasure - BMR, BMO or whatever else it's called
please, leave all your theories for yourself 'cause nobody is interested any more

I think I've managed to make MacOS version compile and work. I've made the pull request to BCN Github: https://github.com/amjuarez/bytecoin/pull/5
btw we are going to have macos version soon and that's super cool
Is it possible that one person or group fake the whole BCN blockchain to make
it look like BCN has been mined by many computers for almost 2 years?
it look like BCN has been mined by many computers for almost 2 years?
I doubt it's possible, at least I can't come up with a way.
Who will do such thing anyway ?
One possibility is the developer premined BCN and made it look like it was not premined.
i guess none being "clean and sober" would do such a stupid thing. what for?
Re: [ANN][MRO] Monero - an anonymous coin based on CryptoNote technology
There were no error made in this coin but now there is an initiative to make some changes. Changes are always bad and changes destroy participant confidence even in case these changes are looking as useful. We have to be very careful before making any changes in coins
Also, miners aren't the only stakeholders, and while a miner voting process is great, it isn't the answer to every question. Though I do agree that miners need to be on board with any hard fork to avoid a harmful split.This is the point. The network that isn't supported by miners is useless. We have to ask them.
Yes I agree with that, as I said. To be fair though, I believe that a large portion of the current hash rate, most likely a clear majority, was active in the meeting where these things were discussed.
I agree. Let's make two separate voting processes.
Merged mining will be turned on only in case 75% of hashpower will be supporting it. For me this is ok. If less we will not introduce it. Is this ok?
For emission schedule modification is 75% a good margin?
75% percent is probably a good margin for miners to approve just about any hard fork. With anything much less than that you are going to end up with a split.
Let's not forget though, non-miners have to approve too.
Do you mean non-miners as a forum users?
Not especially forum users. no. People running nodes that aren't mining still have to validate the blocks, otherwise you get a different kind of split. Or alternately if people don't like what the miners are doing they may simply stop using the coin. Miners are not the only stakeholders in a coin, just one important one.
There will soon be a web site, and other ways of communicating. Now the forum is pretty central, but that will likely not always be the case.
how are you gonna ask all the coin-people? it's impossible and useless.
miners are the main people in the net. 'cause if they don't like the changes and stop mining and supporting the net, coin will die at once. so kinda of "miners referendum" via hashrate power is enough.

Hello!
It is very good that you've created this thread. I'm ok about renaming.
But I can't agree with any protocol changes based only on decisions made by bitcointalk.org people. This is because not all miners are continiously reading forum.
Any decision about protocol changes are to be made by hashpower-based voting. From my side I will agree on such a decision only if more than 50% of miners will agree. Without even such a simple majority from miners such changes are meaningless.
In case of hardfork that isn't supported by majority of miners the network will split into two nets with low-power fork and high-power not-forking branches. I don't think that this will be good for anybody.
Such a voting is easy to be implemented by setting minor_version of blocks to a specific value and counting decisions made after 1000 of blocks. Do you agree with such a procedure?

yes, idea is good. that's how cryptocurrency people should make decisions. i'm in!
Re: [ANN][MRO] Monero - an anonymous coin based on CryptoNote technology
will there be any other changes? hard-fork with reduced emission?
do you want to orginize smth like the "core dev team" or the "Secret Monero Community"? why does thankful_for _today as main dev doesn't participate in discussion?
everything i see there is pretty strange. just like bytecoin (BCN)
