Glad it's not forgotten - it'd be great to find this guy. Especially now!

Nice one thanks - I'll drop Peter an email. Thanks for the help

Had a quick look in ~/ but couldn't find the XBC conf file. Sorry, it's been a while since I've had to edit a .conf file.

I assume i'm looking in the correct place?

Thanks for your help

Thanks 33Bit.

I'm on a mac, where would I add this? just in the .conf file?

So I've just updated to the latest XBC wallet, I let it re-index and sync but now I seem to be about 22 XBC short.

What could have caused that to happen?

Nice one thanks - might do some profit trading then

I think that is one of the issues with a proof of stake coin, people tend to hold instead of trade lots. That's kind of what I've been doing for a while anyway.

It's good that it makes interest but then what I'd do is to trade those profits.

Does that now mean that XBC isn't listed anywhere now?

It'd be good to know some of the things needing done. I think a lot of us are just holding because that's the most sensible thing to do right now.

We all want to see XBC succeed, it there are jobs that need done there's, I think, a pretty good skill set here?

Just need to know what needs done, as I totally understand if you're just a small team there's a lot of work.

Sorry I should have read things properly - I assume we're still working from the GitHub link there just now?

Hi prof,

It's been a while since I've actively mined and compiled a wallet. I helped out with BTE way back and still have a wallet.

I've got a virtual Ubuntu box setup and would like to see what's in my wallet and, for now, if you think it's still viable do some GPU / CPU mining.

Just wondering what the best repo is to compile from?

Thanks

Basically yes - the Prof is working hard on it and I think he'll be better to enlighten on the progress, but I think a lot of that has been covered in earlier posts.

The forum kinda needs a "like" button - nice work guys it's great to see an active dev team.

I think that's most likely the quickest route to failure, dev's that lose interest or just created a pump and dump coin.

Keep it up and I'm sure there's a community of us willing to help out too (in whatever way we can)

There are so many subscription models now. It's too easy to get an adblocker, rendering income from ads non-existent.

I have been giving youTube red a go, just so it stopped interrupting things I was watching with an ever increasing amount of ads.

It's not been bad so far.

The subscription model is taking off everywhere, spotify, iTunes, Adobe, LOTS of internet services; cloud flare for one.

With the likes of Adobe, if, like me you use it daily it kind of makes sense. You always have the cutting edge software, it works great (I've tried, really tried to find an alternative that replaces it at a cheaper price... no joy so far).

I think if you only watch youtube occasionally it's not worth it, if you watch it a lot it's worth the month's free trial at least.

It should be able to have a block explorer being a BTC clone shouldn't it?

Awesome thanks and looking forward to it

I presume you'll give us the heads up on here when it's time to download the new client?

Will the Mac one be available too?

thanks

If I could compile on a Mac - yes - I might have to spin up an ubuntu box and see if I can get my old wallet working again.

Just a bit busy at the moment.

I still have all the old website files if anyone wants to reinstate that side of it. It's probably a bit dated now but would give BTE a web presence again.

I was just thinking the same thing. But unfortunately Poloniex don't give you any of the PoS profits if you hold XBC there.

I'd imagine this is why the volume is low, people are staking the coin on they're own systems.

Awesome thanks for the info. I'll leave Tor off for the time being then since it seems to be working fine without it

So whilst I did get it synced without Tor, I can't get it to work with Tor anymore.

Is it better to have it running with Tor or will it not affect the usage really?
