Re: [ANN][ICN] iCoin - On Swisscex, C-Cex, Bittrex exchange
Why not give CH just a little while longer to reply and present his ideas and plans before jumping to conclusions. 
This year or next?
I'm going with Never
I'm holding on to the outside chance CH only shows up when the updates are ready to go...
Likewise...
I see that Swisscex has now pulled the ICN/BTC exchange and without an inspired community behind this, there seems little reason to push them to reinstate at this stage.
This is shitty.
You can see why the team quit having to deal with this dev, have a look at coins like Digibyte, blackcoin etc etc the dev makes updates once a day at least.
I know I said i would not post here but the dev is really busy working on his other 25 scam coins.
Calm boy boy, chill ya beans. we were all waiting patiently and you provide us with nothing, yet again!

Hi,
Your suggestion are interesting
When changing parameters of iCoin - what will happen to mined coins?
This setting for future mining, mined coins are not effected.Your suggestion are interesting

Re: [ANN][ICN] iCoin - On Swisscex, C-Cex, Bittrex exchange
It's slow because domain transfer process requires 5 days for transfering geticoin.com to my account. Website is up now (old version as the new one i received from Cointopic is incompleted, not usable).
Next update is done too. Just one more thing is the new setting:
Current setting:
Algo: Scrypt
Total coins: 500 million
Premine: 1%
Block reward: 100 iCoin
Block time: 3 minutes
Reward halving interval: 128,000 blocks
Proposed setting:
Algo: X11
Total coins: 250 million
Premine: 0%
Block reward: 25 iCoin
Block time: 3 minutes
Reward halving interval: 64,000 blocks
Any sugguestions?
There will be no new update until this a**h*** get out of this thread.

The dev seems slow with updates, if this is what the iCoin team had to deal with no wonder they left. I have a feeling that the anonymous Captainhook has run away with the btc for the IPO and working on his other coins.
iCoin most likely needs a coin take over but who would touch it now?

Hi all,
Please note that iCoin is also available to trade at Bittrex: https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-ICN
PS: From the original iCoin team, is there anybody else left besides CH?
Tks,
Nuno
Only me left, so there are no team anymore. Please note that iCoin is also available to trade at Bittrex: https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-ICN

the community needs to do something, carpediem aren't accepting paid votes are above this coin. In the past I had been doing my own small give a ways but I could be tempted into this one.
One thing I'd like to know is what is happening with the BTC generated from the IPO, to me that should go to mintpal voting

All iCoin shares were sent out to Investors. We no longer hold any premined coin. Investors please help to promote / develop it.
After today, we will focus on updating iCoin wallet and server daemon for next major update.
Geticoin.com will be back online tomorrow as it is being transfered to me.

How does IPO work. If only these 2 investors pay do they share 2 million or is there set amount of icoin per btc
Use this formula:Reward = Stage amount * (Personal Investment / Total Investment)
For eg. if there were only 2 investors, investor ID 2 would receive:
Investor ID Amount Invested
1. 0.99 BTC
2. 0.48 BTC
Reward = 2,000,000 * (0.48 / (0.99 + 0.48)) = 653,061 ICN.
Update IPO Status:
- 2 investors with total 1.47 BTC.

Sorry guys, got many msgs because of geticoin.com is down again, this is out of my control as CoinTopic is responsible for web hosting. I requested CoinTopic to give me back the source code, database and graphic source so i can host the site but he hasn't replied yet. Geticoin.com will be back up as soon as i received website source. In the mean time, i will up a temporary website at http://ipo.icoin.pw and http://icoin.pw.
Some users are asking for PoS, this is not easy to do because it may broke the blockchain, but we will try to test it too.
We are working hard to make iCoin more valuable, spending lot of time and even own money during last 3 months, while lot of people just staying there keep questioning instead of helping.
I quote a post from Carnth (Litecoin forum administrator)
Simply don't invest if you don't trust it, for anything not only iCoin.
Best,
C.H.

As always, if you have any doubts, do not place an order or send any money.
The above statement is true for buying anything with crypto.

Re: [ANN][ICN] iCoin - IPO Plan, 15 Merchants, Updated Android Wallet.
So many troubles with this coin along the way, mostly due to premine, and yet i'm pretty sure everybody knows it has the best name/branding to go mainstream.
Captainhook, your upcoming tweaks look perfect to me, but i think it would be an error not to consider POS (not much 3% a year would be enough to make more people tend to hold) for this great coin. I mean, great name, premine gone through ipo, x11 algo + pos hype (see blackcoin and all clones crazyness), icoin would fly within days and be massively adopted. Icoin would be the first x11 POW/POS coin. All blackcoin clones around are still running on old scrypt during pow phase.
Also, the 500 millions total coins is misleading i guess in people's mind. This coin is rare, only 10 millions right now !!! And will be even more after ur tweaks !!! It should be more clear in OP i think for people to make up a target price more easily as most of them don't know mining is supposed to last decades as a very slow release rate.
I'm glad icoin will be faster and even more scarce.
Well, u know what u have to do to make it one of the best coin around specs wise. Icoin future is in your hands Marketing will be a piece of cake after that, easy to promote a well thought coin with flawless technical side.
Can't wait to finally see icoin rise and get its shiny coinkite one day !

Add these modifications with the IPO suggestions I made above and I think you'll have a winner.
The next thing to consider would be the coin release schedule during the PoW phase and how long it would last. I recommend a 1-2 year mining period while x11 is still asic resistant.
2 great news in one day that iCoin listed in C-Cex.com exchange and Cryptocoinrank.com.

Re: [ANN][ICN] iCoin - IPO Plan, 15 Merchants, Updated Android Wallet.
Can we have the IPO information put up on the twitter/facebook pages for better promotion.... the greater the distribution, the more successful icoin will be.
Yes, we will put IPO information on bitcointalk, twitter/facebook/reddit and website tomorrow.Re: [ANN][ICN] iCoin - 15 Merchants, Updated Android Wallet.
Thank you Ryan, you did a great job for iCoin at CryptoCurrency Convention.
For the premined coin, 1.5m were given out for bounties since the coin released, currently i hold 3.5m iCoin. So 100% - 3.5 million pre-mined iCoin will be granted to IPO investors.
1. IPO plan:
I'm preparing IPO microsite, the live stats of the IPO will be available on our site at the IPO time.
2. Another big thing is next iCoin update soon after IPO:
- New algorithm: X11.
- Block reward will be reduced dramatically.
- Faster havles time.
- Include a chat system in wallet so we can discuss directly.
- Wallet startup sound (we have an instrumental sound dedicated compose for iCoin)
- iCoin exchange in wallet. Will contact Poloniex to re-list iCoin and offer them to be official exchange of iCoin.
