Wow, Impressive jump. I just hope that a majority of those are not fraudulent as has been suggested. I want to see GRC on as many exchanges as possible just like everyone else, but that's not the way to do it.

A new way to vote for an exchange:

I mentioned altswap.com a few days ago. You can buy shares for this exchange at cryptostocks.com. Once you buy shares, voting is now open until February 14th to vote on coins to be listed on the exchange. One share = one vote, but I have 90 shares and it looks like I can still only vote for GRC one time. So if you buy shares (currently at IPO price of .005) solely to bump up GRC, it looks like there's no point in buying more than one share. But you can also vote "no" to coins, so I'm thinking this will give a -1 vote ... so any crap coins that I do not care for, I'm using my remaining votes to vote no. Here's the link to vote once you buy:

https://cryptostocks.com/securities/80/voterequests

unfortunately, it doesn't look like there's a way to see how many votes each coin has.


EDIT: Sorry... it looks like you had to buy shares before the 8th according to this announcement:

https://cryptostocks.com/announcements/673

So if you were a stakeholder before then, please be sure to vote. Otherwise, it doesn't look like you can buy shares now and vote. I'm sure they will run more polls in the future, though.


EDIT (again...):

Ok, now I just read this announcement:

https://cryptostocks.com/announcements/728

So maybe you can buy shares now and vote immediately after.

hey groten, thanks for the bunch of inspiration!
To wrap it up, your suggestions as I understood lead us to the following projects:

1) Write reports on community activity regularly for the dev
<< devs could then decide whether this aggregation suffices their needs. can be started right away.

2a) Fund and Constitute a Gridcoin foundation
<< long-term goal, but really this is where we should be heading, even doge has a foundation

2b) work out a brand
<< this ought to follow the logo specification and is a mid-term goal, imho

3) assign a team
<< the community wont take the lead here, Rob has a small team already, afaik.
some community members like aysyr work closely with them.
Therefore, i'd suggest we bring up a pool of help offers from members, which dev board can assign subtasks to.

your ideas would definitely boost this network!
are you fine with the projects i concluded?
I'd like to enlist them alongside your nickname, if you agree.
Otherwise they get lost in the stream.

Thanks for the help!

Yes, 1) With the explosive growth lately, we look back 20 days (instead of 30), so for one, old nodes fall off in 20 days.

2) We purge any entries where a single host switches wallets within that period and Mines a block.
Your entry will purge when your boinc-host-id mines a new block.

I was able to restore a old wallet and i've regained the old value of gridcoin, but i'm unable to send it out, it seems... i receive no confirm and this time i didn't receive the transfer at all on the new wallet.

I've been trying CPU mining as well as GPU mining. For GPU mining, I have an NVIDIA card (GT 650M), and even though I've been using Cudaminer, the hash rate is low enough that I haven't hit any blocks yet. And for CPU mining, it's now become clear to me that, since my wallet is empty, a beacon isn't being sent out. Could anyone send me a few bitcoins to get started (so beacons can go out as I CPU mine)? My address:
 G7ZC5oVK75EHTMUWR76yqA8imfSdAB6NT6

Thank you.

Groten,
I really don't know yet; We're scrambling to release the Linux version by this weekend, so why don't you experiment with the new version we just released, delete your debug file, read the log and see what the error is; if it's still not working, try going to a non-encrypted wallet until we find a workaround, but definitely please keep up informed.

Thanks,
Grid

if you have a wallet backup it's easy to get them back again.
Just delete the current wallet with the lost coins, and put the intact backup in place.
Then run gridcoin and it will rescan the wallet and adjust for all transactions that did and did not complete.
I've been having a bunch of transactions not complete and get them back this way.

Also, I had some that remained uncompleted for the better part of a day suddenly go through. I believe it had something to do with the timing of finding a new block. They sent right around then. So it might have taken them that long to notice they had a node to travel to and confirm on.
