Coins not really dying if the source code is fully open source. Even if there are no miners anymore, the coin can be reactivated anytime again.

Re: Is bitcoin dead?

probably not , because the halving block reward is getting closer and closer which should be by the end of the next year , so there is a huge chance that the price will rise like hell . maybe multiply if the demand stays the same . and if it rise it will be better .
yes not really dead. Maybe its not famous and only few people know what is bitcoin and how its gonna work. But bitcoin is alive and many company or business still using it.

I dont think there are many company that use bitcoin as their payment, may be some of them use bitcoin but mostly they dont even care about bitcoin problems since they strong in fiat. If bitcoin has been used by many company I am sure the price will go to the moon in next year and everybody will start to invest in bitcoin for sure

All big companies are aware of Bitcoin and will use it as it will fit them. You saw how IBM used it for advertising their Cloud services in Brazil. Lot of projects are worked on and lots are already alive. But as normal they dont attract as much interest as they would 2 years ago.
One important reason they do not use it is the fluctuations of bitcoin prices, so they do not want to sell something in 500$ and by decreasing price their bitcoin becomes 400$, I think that's why stagnant state is good for developing bitcoin.

Didn't quite get what are you talking about. You think IBM is worried about Bitcoin price fluctuation?

They probably woudn't notice price change even if Bitcoin would've gotten to $1000.

New wallet is good for the future of BCN.

yeap, outright userfriendliness, haven't seen any analogue to such wallet. don't know if it plays well in the bytecoin future. But it is the fact that it is one of the most convenient

Re: Bytecoin Wallet (GUI)

hey, is there any possibility to mine just right from the bytecoin wallet?
i don't see this function in the wallet, but i want it to be there. bytecoin gui miner would be so damn cool  Cool
if there is no mining feature in the bytecoin wallet now, bcn devs, do you plan to add it in the future? i think it is very very good to have "start mining now!" button in the wallet near the balance dashboard.

well yeah, GUI miner sounds great, but I'm against shoving it inside the wallet, that would be too much. The wallet looks elegant and easy now, but throwing the miner inside of it.. erm, that'd be overkill IMHO.

what does "address" in the wallet mean? does the wallet generate new addresses??? Is it my new bytecoin address?? Is it the one i should use?Huh

Yes, when the first opening the wallet generates a new address for the user

Once you open Bytecoin Wallet, it will automatically create your first Bytecoin address and start synchronizing with the network.

If you don't need that, just open the wallet that you used before. You've gotta go File - Open wallet, then find it and hit the button and you're done.

Btw if you're gonna come around and and use the automatically generated address, then you better encrypt it: go Settings - Encrypt wallet and create a password (complex one!).

Re: Bytecoin: Under the Hood

Bytecoin team wanted to give a varying level of access to CryptoNote transactions core with two API interfaces:

  • IWallet operates on the business logics level. It is useful if you simply need to receive and send transactions, without going into CryptoNote protocol details. Should you require to transfer money with IWallet, you just need to indicate the receiver's address, the amount, and the mixing level. IWallet will do the hard work for you, as it will select the inputs, and then create, validate, sign, and broadcast the transaction.
  • ITransaction is a low-level interface that gives full access to CryptoNote transactions engine. It is designed for those applications that require strict control of transaction creation process. For instance, ITransaction allows you to select specific inputs, and has separate methods for signing and broadcasting a transaction. It also provides access to multisig functionality.

Both API interfaces are capable of doing exactly the same, but with varying level of detalization. That is why IWallet belongs to Bytecoin high-level API, while ITransaction is low-level.



Is it possible to switch between IWallet and ITransactions? Will it give any advantages to the user?

Oh, here's the long-awaited update! Thank you guys, you put so much effort into this and develop really great stuff. I suppose you're the most competent among all cryptonote currencies developers, I missed it. You even made everything on time! I'm gonna go buy lots of BCN and then try to read a bit what kind of hardocre technological stuff is released this time by Bytecoin team  Cool

Re: Bytecoin website and roadmap release (including CryptoNote protocol updates)

In-process INode for applications

INode interface is Bytecoin's high-level API library that provides network node functionality. Its in-process implementation allows to launch an instance of Bytecoin daemon inside any C++ application. As an example, it allows Bytecoin Wallet to run a native network node. What's more, if you have a local Bytecoin daemon running, INode will connect to it rather than create a new in-app instance. This update marks the start of Bytecoin lightweight wallet development, a long-awaited feature in CryptoNote ecosystem.


I guess INode is something new. Could you explain in more detail? Where could I find it on the website? Actually, it would be pretty good to make a special blog for bytecoin where developers will comment on what is happening.

Instant transaction notification

With this feature CryptoNote transactions become real-time. When Alice broadcasts her newly created Bytecoin transaction to Bob, his wallet will immediately recognize it and update Bob's pending balance before the transaction is included in the blockchain.


I wonder, in case of double-spend attempt or transaction cancelation how will the wallet react? My question stands for GUI version also.

Suppose, nobody will make the double spend. It is really complicated to accomplish at present bytecoin version.

I need to buy much more bytecoins right now. Besides, what about deadlines? What date is going to be the 1.0.3 version? I’m eager to have a look on first GUI wallet in CryptoNote ecosystem.

Whats going on with XPY trading on the new CryptoRush ?
http://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/cryptorush/

As I posted that, I noticed that the 'new, and really not a scam this time round' CryptoRush seems to have gone tits-up again.
Oh, well, business as usual in crypto....... Roll Eyes

Isn't Cryptorush dead? The website is not working.

Also I didn't remeber to see Cryptorush listed at CoinMarketCap. It seems there is some bug at it, because also the price is more than 2 USD (against 0.83 at Cryptsy).
Cryptorush has run away with customers money a second time by the look of things. Offline for 22h already

I'm not surprised at all!
