Re: [XPM] [ANN] Primecoin Prerelease Announcement - Introducing Prime Proof-of-Work

Sorry for being such a noob, but how do I know if I am mining?

I Opened the help-debug window-console:

type setgenerate true 1

After that, not much really occurred...

Do I get any sort of a confirmation after that? The console did do anything after I entered that...

Thank for the help

Read what I wrote earlier

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=251850.msg2675553#msg2675553

Type "getprimespersec" to see your mining speed

Awesome thanks--I don't think I'll find much with this laptop, but still fun--Thanks!

I'm a bit worried because I sent the funds to bitfunder directly to the public address, instead of doing a direct exchange. Now my weexchange account is empty, and my bitfunder account is also empty. It's been more than an hour now.

If anyone can help or explain it would be appreciated.

Thanks


Edit: turns out that I'm a idiot--that was the issue.

Re: use of bitcoin in Argentina

I've honestly thought about heading down that way just to make money hand over fist saving the livelihood of some good Argentinean folk. Maybe when Ripple gets out of beta that would be a great place to start testing it out.

I honestly believe that digital currencies really have a shot at taking off in a place like Argentina where horrible management of the economy has screw up their currency. Good luck man!

Re: Why such agreement that Deflationary currency is a bad thing

We have far too many inflationary currencies. So it feels right to have something different for people who believe that reasonable deflation is in fact a good thing.

And it is not to say that it is a good or bad thing--I just believe in the free market and actual freedom. I think the choice of a deflationary currency--like gold has been for 1000s of years--is an intelligent investing choice. That is why I'm interesting in bitcoin.

Yes, deflation does cause for hording and causes for the velocity of money to plummet in times of crisis when there is only one currency--but we live in the real world, so a deflationary currency is great for saving. It's really shitty for doing loans--which is what 95% of the 'real economy' is based off of, so that is the greatest disadvantage in my mind. I'm am sure however someone brilliant is already working on an algorithm that could give bitcoin loans in a way that wouldn't totally fuck you on the payback later down the road.
