When might we see this on more exchanges?

How can we help get it listed on other exchanges?

I was thinking about buying it over the weekend but didnt

What is the minimum recommended amount of coins for staking?

And is there a staking pool?

To clarify

So Monero and Aeon are good for ledger privacy, and no wallet balance reveal, but you would still need to hide your IP?

Pivx has ledger privacy/obfuscation only through using CoinJoin, but you still need to hide your IP. Right? Not sure about wallet balance reveal.

And Verge has IP privacy (although you should still hide it), but ledger transparency and wallet balance reveal. Right?

Verge dev's recent interview with Ameer and some Pivx guys has made me curious about which coins are actually the best for privacy.

For complete privacy (ring signatures, IP anonymity) it seems Monero and Aeon are the winners, right?

For ledger transparency, but IP anonymity, Verge is the best, right?

As for Pivx, is its only distinguishing privacy feature Obfuscation?

There is/was also ShadowCash, it has ring signature but not sure about IP anon. Its developers seem to have moved on to working on a social and marketplace platform.

Anyone got more info and insights about these or other coins?

Reddcoin was supposed to be a tipping coin but it has somewhat failed imo.

I've seen a bitcoin wallet that is a Chrome extension (open source), which makes transactions from the browser pretty easy as a way to make payments or donations.

I realise Verge is anonymity-centric, but not everyone who likes Verge would necessarily be against using such a thing.

When donations or payments are made through the wallet browser extension/plugin/addon, then a little reminder to tip the Verge dev could be included there. Obviously only small amounts should be kept in such a wallet. This could potentially rival Reddcoin (which is barely functional in its current state imo, and blatantly lies about being Youtube-ready in its promo video).

Any chance of Verge becoming/adding Proof of Stake in the future?

I agree, but its not mine. I just shared it.

At first glance CryptoClone seems like a Ponzi.

It is subjective and you can't expect the CoinGecko staff to be monitoring every single coin closely, nor spending time chatting with devs. I would take their dev interest rating with a large grain of salt.

Well think of it this way... If he does change the logo, the old logo shirts would give you better hipster cred.

Hi,

I'm curious about the technology behind exchanges.

Does anyone know which type of database they use for user info and balances? What do you personally think would be the best type of database to use?

How would they integrate the various crypto currency wallets into the database?

How do they instantly generate/allocate new receiving addresses?


As far as I know, in a nutshell, they have the regular user accounts database, but they must also have a database that keeps track of balances. Users don't have an actual wallet (they don't run another wallet management program instance for each user), but they are allocated a balance from the exchange's 'global' wallet(s). That is about the extent of my understanding currently (which may or may not be accurate), so I'm hoping someone here can give much more detail. Thanks!

Actually the best way to mine on Prohashing is to auto mine the most profitable coins (no password in your miner config selects that option when connecting to their pool) and then choose Verge as your payout currency in the settings on their website.

Yep! Don't use Minergate.

There is the possibility that the Verge price will go up if miners throw a great deal of hash at Prohashing.com. Use no password and it connects you to their smart pool which mines the most profitable coins and switches constantly to avoid block wait times. And then in the payout settings, choose 100% Verge. The admins will, if they dont have enough Verge to pay everyone out with, go to an exchange and buy the Verge in order to pay out the miners.

They actually advise how to do this in their own help guide.

Even if you don't always agree with them, it certainly has a 2A friendly audience.

For me the coin's future is a bit unknown though. What will changing to a token on a different blockchain do for the value of the coin? How would the transfer process work exactly? Exchanges might potentially drop it if it forks or transfers. How anonymous is the coin, compared to something like Verge, Monero or Zerocoin? How is the work load going to be distributed to the community instead of all on the dev's shoulders? These are questions we need to answer before "relaunch".

That's a really good question. Prohashing has an explorer, but I don't think it has coin supply info. Coinmarketcap has volume, but not supply either.

I was previously able to contact the new community dev through unitystreams pool IRC channel. We were discussing reviving Rabbit on the Minergate chat until we all got banned from it. I think they did some work on it, but Im not sure what exactly. http://server2.unitystreams.com:17777/

Alternatively the Prohashing guys might be able to help.


Links to wallets can be found on previous pages of this thread.

Is there going to be smart contracts or some Eth token-like feature too?

Well I can see 2A supporters seeing crypto as an alternative regardless of whether they know about Guncoin or not. The question then is how can Guncoin be made especially attractive to them.

Not knowing about crypto in general is first obstacle, and then volatility is the second. The US dollar seems to be stable to most people, whereas cryptos are not really.

A platform/blockchain/whatever that offers stability, or could possibly be stabilised, might be more attractive to some people. This reduces its attractiveness to some crypto investors wanting everything going to the moon. But Guncoin wasnt made for that.

I think something like a tether or XRP (which Im under the possibly wrong impression can be price stabilised through supply control) might help with stability. I guess people might complain about centralisation, or of the ability of the biggest stake holders to dump and run - Ripple tried to gain confidence through locking some up. http://www.coindesk.com/ripple-pledges-lock-14-billion-xrp-cryptocurrency/

Advertising on some patriot news sites and blogs might be an idea to consider too as relaunch/revision approaches.

Yeah... All ONE of them... And there was the guy on the previous page who had 3 posts and was complaining about sync.

Because people interested in crypto are interested in every single coin and therefore must post a thousand times before they become interested in Verge.

Get real.
