Re: [ANN][STONK] StonkaCoin ❂ (Fully Packed) ❂ SHA-256 POW/POS Hybrid ❂ Long-Life ❂

So dev, how do the PoW and PoS work in hybrid?  Is every block PoW+PoS?  Or do PoW and PoS take turns?

They are both fighting for it at the same time since staking age is only 1 hour minimum (after Block 2500), although PoW blocks will be superior in found blocks if people mine it Wink

I see.  Therefore a block is either a PoS block or a PoW block, correct?

Who's Emilio Mann?  What domain name is he using, and for what uses?

Is the guy in the photo Emilio Mann?  Or is Emilio Mann the Equinox dev?  Or is Emilio Mann the moderator of the Unofficial XVC thread?

Emilio Mann is the moderator of the Unofficial XVC thread

Why is it important that his name is Emilio Mann?  Does he have a shady history?

John deleted the official vcash forum and now redirects to a different, old forum.

This reminds me of the equinox dev some time ago:




And to the guy who is the moderator of the unofficial, moderated xvc thread: When will you finally stop deleting posts in the thread, when will you be man enough to face the truth that John dumped and when will you wake up. You're not better than John by covering his back.
Are you that naive?  Do you not know that is Emilio Mann using a domain name registered to John Connor?

DNET still underpriced IMO.  There is always going to be a market for a coin that's kind of like Dash but without the Instamine, and this could be the one  Smiley

Re: ★[ANN] [NAV] NAV COIN - ANONYMOUS TECH. LAUNCH NOV 1
by
brownmon
on 04/11/2016, 14:33:08 UTC
NAV is an anonymous coin. That is what is actually known for in the outside world. The fact that NAV has faster transactions than Bitcoin and its other advantages are not really seen as NAVs main features by the outside world. And I guess other coins out there also have faster transactions than Bitcoin. So summarized, NAVs strength is anonimity. Yes, anonimity is nice sometimes. But lets be honest here ... do you really care government knows you bought 2 bananas, 1 apple and an icecream in your local store ? Do you really care if government knows you ordered new pants in an online store ? In case of online stores ... does it really matter if Bitcoin takes 30 minutes to arrive if the delivery of the pants takes 2-5 days (the 30 minutes are actually irrelevant as your order is known immediately when you push PURCHASE button) ? I don't think that most people would have problems with that.

What is the main advantage of an anonymous coin ? To hide what you bought and from who. When are people interested in this: tax avoidance and black markets. The only exception I know is maybe people wanting to hide they bought gold/silver or if they maybe paid for sexual services.

I am not saying that I don't value privacy of my purchases, even if I buy pineapples and yoghurt. But I doubt many people really care a lot about that. Merchants will probably prefer it to hide they sold something so they don't need to pay taxes on it. I think that if you really believe that NAV will mainly be used for honest activities than I think you are not being realistic. Why would I need any other crypto other than Bitcoin to buy groceries ? People are using Bitcoin right now to buy coffee in a cafe despite Bitcoins transaction taking 30 minutes. If I read your reply I have the feeling you want to compete against Bitcoin and win the fight. But I don't think that is the right path to go. Overtaking Bitcoin is almost impossible.

I am not claiming I am right and I am always open to change my mind about this. But then I need strong arguments which at this moment I didn't come up with one yet.

It's not only to hide from governments; it's to hide from neighbours, insurers, workmates.  Do you want your flight to cost more because the airline can see you make more money?

Do you want your insurer to know what you buy and who you associate with?  (Facebook stopped an insurance company from giving discounts for revealing one's Facebook account recently, but probably only because that's a service they want companies to pay Facebook for -- They have data scientists working on it and patents for it.)

Do you want potential employers to know how much you make in your present job?  Do you want your present employer to see how much you made in your previous jobs?

Seems like it's something that would put one at a disadvantage in any kind of negotiation.

BLK can 10x when/if Zimbeck open-sources BlackHalo, if he does it soon.  Then BLK could be like "Hey, we're a stable and mature alternative to this forky risky ETH stuff!"

Otherwise 10x is a big big ask.

I won't believe he's open-sourcing BlackHalo until he does it as I thought he was going to have done it like a year ago.

Hi,

What happens in this case?:

I have a 3 BTC buy order of SMLY at 1 sat filled.  Two seconds later, SMLY is removed from trading.  Do I just lose that 3 BTC-worth of coin?

Of course not. All buy orders got cancelled on coin removal and funds will go back to balance.

Sure, but what happens if I'm asleep and this happens?:

1. The buy order is filled and I get my millions of SMLY
2. Twenty minutes later, SMLY is removed from trading.

What happens to my SMLY in that case?

We have to free up server resources for new coins by delisting some coins which have consistently low trading volume.
The following coins will be removed on 19.03.2016 if their average trading volume for the last month has not exceeded 0.2 BTC/day (or 6 BTC for last 30 days):

While evan is going to move away from the masternode model (supposedly).

Is there any evidence of this?  I've never heard anything about it.

He said he is going to move the anonymization on to the protocol level so mixing at the masternode level is not needed anymore. Masternodes will however do the work of quorums i.e. instant transactions (which will be on by default iirc) and decentralized API.

When and where did he say this?

If you are not CryptoClub then why the hell are you trying to answer for him?? 

Seems like you are just trying to spread DISINFO which means Disinformation (look it up ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disinformation

Because I had answers or things to say about some of those questions.  I did say above it "I'm not CryptoClub, but:"

Disinformation is intentionally false or inaccurate information that is spread deliberately.

Please identify a specific example of me spreading disinformation relating to VNL.

(I believe it is no longer the case that the source is not available,  but I'm not positive.)


Why do you even comment without doing your research? You are no better than the 0 activity trolls in most threads.

The project is open source, google: vanillacoin + github

Was it hard?

I believe the zero-time code is not yet open-source, right?

Nice try, but your DISINFO is not going to work here.

P.S.  
You skipped numbers - 1, 2, 5, and 9 -  "Presumably" on purpose

Not really sure what DISINFO you mean; can you elaborate please?

"1. Early on you mentioned getting your friend to do a code review on Vanilla...(This was pre ZeroTime back then)"

It's not my friend; I don't really know about this.

"2. You mentioned that your friend looked over the code and could see NO reason why it wasn't original with all the detailed code"

I don't know about this as it wasn't my friend or me who were involved.

"5. Did your friend then look over neutered code on git without even talking to IRC crowd and John...lets just go blind on this...lol"

I don't know about this, but it doesn't really seem like IRC is the place for sensible discussion.  I've seen logs and it's just like this thread -- Hypers or zombies caught in a cult of personality rabidly attacking anyone with questions or criticism, shouting "FUD FUD FUD!" with no clue of what they're talking about.  And dev isn't much better in that regard.

"9. I will continue to laugh at people like you who want to be crypto famous on twitter and facebook(barf) while standing on the skulls of others"

Doesn't sound like you're very grateful to him for attempting to get a code review organised.  Are code reviews of VNL code unwelcome?
