Hey guy - I am not defending the thread starter, I'm saying it isn't his account, it's mine (it was hacked *9* months ago). That means he was either involved in the btctalk security vulnerabilities in 2013 or bought the account from someone who was. Whatever that says about the character of the person posting is up to each person's own interpretation, but it is the truth. *I* am not a scammer though and have never even been involved in a BTC trade ever.

Per Dr-Exchanger's pm request, I am replying to this thread to confirm that my account, Etlase2 was hacked back in January as a result of one of the security breaches some time back.

I have no opinion or information relating to the content of this thread, but common sense would suggest someone who is buying hacked btctalk accounts is probably not all that trustworthy.

"your friend said"?



I'm still around. Decrits did go on hold for awhile, longer than I wanted. I'm working on it again and that's about all I'll say at this point.

It's not dead but I haven't had time to work on it much in the last two months. It is difficult to try to program something that requires intricate testing in 2-3 hour bursts between work and life. I'm going to try to refocus for the next month or two to get the protocol up to an alpha testing ready stage and then set up the forum and wiki to get some details and discussion going. It is still going to be a ways out from that though.

Is this the same level of detail we can expect in the paper describing how the network will be secure against attacks/double spends? For which a model has yet to be provided even a year later. Not even the basis for a model. Just some nodes that are magically assumed to come to consensus and a lot of window dressing.

The fundamental solution that bitcoin brought to decentralized consensus has been thrown out by emunie, but no replacement has been described. Be very wary.

Well there was that jump when I upgraded to my McMansion in 2006.


So it seems that your memory is suspect afterall. Gas may have been in the low $2s in 2008, but it was above $4 in 2007. Perhaps you should look into the reasons why it was so cheap in 2008? Because it does not make your case at all.


There was no statement made about the official CPI, stop red herringing. Shadowstats is just as big of a pile of bs; pointing out the flaws of some other flawed metric does not make Shadowstats not flawed. Besides, all it is doing is obviously just adding 5% on to the CPI, there is no actual metric.

And I don't have the data points, but if we assume roughly 8% inflation since 2000 according to shadowstats, that means there has been ~150% inflation in 14 years. Someone making $50k today is the same as someone making $20k in 2000.

What are the obvious reasons? Of the few that have posted ideas for different ways of doing it, none have been implemented. Nobody here does anything except copy code and change a few variables. Unless you are doing something other than copying bitcoin for 99.9% of your code, your idea is probably underwhelming too regardless if there is some perceived market for it.

Boy if I haven't called this throughout the project.

"Here are once again a bunch of meaningless, flowery words from an eMunie supporter" that is all I see.


No one should believe a thing until the security and economic details have been released and it has some discussion from the community. The client is window dressing.


At the very least, they have a proven security system which eMunie does not. And it appears more and more like any whitepaper or details will be released at the last second before or maybe even during or after the IPO with as little public discussion as possible. Is Dan really so paranoid that someone is going to steal his amazing ideas and release something that copies them prior to the release of eMunie? Because that is absurd. That raises many questions as to why these details have not been released.

I think your nonsense indicator is badly broken.

So if practice proves your position, and I flip heads 10 times in a row, that means I will never flip tails? Practice proves that the coin always lands on heads.

Etlase2 acct has been hacked and the admins don't care.

Network protocol is in testing, partial source and alpha test runs in a month or two. Still a ton to do though.

I sent a PM to theymos a week ago, then Stefan Thomas a day or two later, but neither has responded to my request to get my account Etlase2 back. All I would need is to have the account's email set to what it was previously and I could recover it myself. Thank you

Or you could, god forbid, ignore some trolls on the internet...

Yeah ok, move along, nothing to see here.

Well you said you're developing it, and you said it doesn't use cryptography. Will it then be a centralized server such as Paypal where you have final control over everything? Because if it is going to be decentralized, you are going to need some heavy cryptography.

You didn't answer the question.

Then how are transactions initiated? Would it just be a centralized server with accounts? That won't interest many here at all.

I don't know how these nxt accounts are being secured, but a sha256 asic is going to have a performance of 0 for curve25519...

you already posted this, bro
