Min stake age? PoS interest? I need more info about Potcoin PoS, any help?

Cheers

Min stake age is 8 hours.
POSv stake rate is 5% with 6% possible with compounding.
POT implemented an in progress 2.0 version of POSv that splits the total staked coins with those actively supporting the network. IF the code is operating properly we should be seeing upwards of 50% interest earned on personal staking balances, this will likely happen as we increase the difficulty by getting more people to use the modded wallets that @cartmanspc so kindly provided.

If your looking to stake a decent # of coins I would suggest that you grab either the 5k or the 100 modded wallet. This will provide you with the greatest stake rate and will help increase the difficulty resulting in a positive feedback loop of sorts. If you go back a few pages you will see a link to amazon cloud that I posted where I have everything you need to get started, including a bootstrap.dat. I will upload a fresh bootstrap now so that you and others have the latest to get you started.

Guys please tell me. The bot starts in a very big minus 1 version Bitrex. Share please profitable settings. Even if the profit will be 10 Satoshi purchase / sale, but it will even be a profit rather than a negative permanent. Please tell me the normal setting for a good a pair.

Stop using the bot immediately. Learn how to trade. The bot is not some mystical turn it on and magically make money machine. If it did that, everyone would use it, and If everyone was making money, where is that money coming from? The bot helps you by automating specific trading tasks, but you need to know what you are doing. If you just leave the bot on buying and selling for you all day, ALL it can do is lose money and you will never make any.

Listen to this man/woman/wildebeast Smiley

I suggest anyone looking to trade anything grab a couple of books from amazon or your local library if they have them.

Secrets for profiting in bull and bear markets by Stan Weinstein
Trader Vic: Methods of a Wall Street Master by Victor Sperandeo

You can also seek out other sources for how to read a chart. There are a couple of decent options for altcoin charts now. Coinigy.com is awesome and covers every single exchange including ones I have never heard of and if you have an android tablet or phone you can grab ztrader from play, the charts are pretty decent on it as well.

For anyone looking to learn how to trade altcoins I would suggest picking a coin or 2 that YOU are willing to hold onto long term. They can move rapidly and with the coins like DGB/POT/etc that are trading in the 2 and 3 digit sat range they can drop or climb 25%+ in a matter of minutes. Standard loss taking doesn't apply if YOU believe that some coins will eventually be worth many times what they are now.

Happy 4-20 day!

Other than another 20% haircut in the price -after having lost much, much more in the last week alone-, what is there to feel "Happy" about?

How about waking up to another beautiful day on earth... or in your case thats probably hell, huh.

Do us all a favor and add him to your ignore list.

Aside from his inability to run a wallet and the help he was seeking he rarely if ever posts anything that isn't trashing potcoin or the devs.
He likely bought in at or above 500 sats and is pissed that he isn't a millionaire by now.

@BaRaBB

we get it;
Potcoinlabs=NO Credibility;

now do you have some useful suggestions?
i am t0o lazy to read thru your diatribe rants;
perhaps you hid some useful suggestions;
could you please reduce them to a few words and highlight them;
please.

ps ... in terms of business plan.  i am a very big fan of seed stock.
lightweight. portable.  and it almost immediately lends itself to a SnoopDogg project.

pss ... another business plan.  find and recruit lawyers that excel in the cannabis laws.
get them to join the community and do legal work in exchange for POT.

pssss ... if the can of Juice thing is deliverable, why not?  the possibility of challenging the beverage industry is slim, but getting a niche market might be enough to raise POT back to 7-figure numbers.

 

Your better off ignoring him. His only goal is to cause issues and spread fud. I am fairly certain he is using the fud to attempt to drive the price down so he can buy up cheaper. If there was a way to short it he would likely be doing that as well.

My 2c on your ideas....

Seedstock - Definitely the way to go, dopecoin has their own grow op and I think they will be offering seeds as well.
Lawyers - Again, a smart move. Wish I knew a lawyer who could help.
The juice - Is most definitely deliverable. My bet is that they have a friend/family member that works with/for or runs a small bottling plant and they locked in a deal to slap a custom label on a generic recipe. The # of energy drinks on the market way way out #s the # of plants bottling it, many many products work this way. Batteries are another one, that store brand AA you buy because its cheaper was likely produced by energizer or duracell.

Questions: The "Potcoin team, who is/are it? Since they haven't done anything for over a year (including NOT doing ANY of the things they promised, like the card and many others), why is anyone going to believe them based on some photoshop-created cans of a pot-drink? What the fuck is this shit of the slack channel being the means of debate of the coin project, de factor isolating the entire altcoin community by not posting here in many months?

Who is paying for what would be a very considerable expense in manufacturing and distributing "the cans' drink"? I put the quote because so far it is only a photoshop image that cost nothing to create. The reality implies a significant cost even in produced in small scale -which would make the drink incredibly expensive even if no profit at all is taken into consideration. This is either overly ambitious -which needs credibility which is lacking 100%- , or just an outright scam. Consequently no one in his sane mind would believe it can be a reality.

What "efforts", specifically, are being made to get vendors to use Potcoin? That ship sailed almost a year ago when we actually had one making specific offers right here on this tread, with plenty of imagery and even (unwarranted) enthusiasm? It's just demagoguery and the truth is that NOTHING is being done -or actually CAN be done- in that regard.

You are PLAYING with the idea of using Bitcoin itself or Ethereum. Either would be fine indeed, but it is hardly the problem of this coin. The real problem of Potcoin is that it is a headless project, completely abandoned for almost a year and now all of a sudden supposedly retaken with an absurdity of an idea (the drink) that stinks like a quick scam given the total lack of credibility of the anonymous "Potcoin team". Nobody in his sane mind would SUPPORT IT IN THIS VERY, VERY, VERY SMALL COMMUNITY, but much less in the entire Altcoin arena in which this is a project most consider -justifiably so- abandoned and death for all intents and purposes. If anyone is serious about Potcoin, other than "rdyoung", it would be great. But a shred of minimal credibility is imperative. "The potcoin team" has none whatsoever.

I mean this could be managed worse on on deliberate purpose -and considerable skill at that-. More than by pot heads, by crack heads. Amazing is really to say the least.

Not sure what you have been smoking or drinking but I suggest you lay off for awhile and let your mind clear up.

The potcoin team has an active channel on slack that I can invite you to if you so desire, but I will do so only on the condition that your willing to work with everyone and play nice. If your willing to chip in and help thats great, if not kindly STFU and leave this thread alone.

There is a growing team of people chipping in to grow potcoin.
One of the most notable is a fork of coinomi for android that gives us a mobile wallet for potcoin. They have also submitted that code to coinomis github so the next time they roll up a new release it will hopefully be included.

I was attempting to help you figure out the potcoin wallet but I forgot that your a troll, sorry about that.
I will be putting you back on ignore and I suggest others here do the same to prevent them from having to deal with you.

Thank you for trying to help. Others do too and indeed did.
"Dealing" with me is dealing with a mirror, quite simply. As opposed to a sheltered environment for idiots unable to deal with criticism, alright? I simply point out THE TRUTH, not BS. Why instead of being the worst possible representative of the coin with your idiotic and intolerable propensity to STFU everyone, don't become an asset and RESPOND to the RELEVANT QUESTIONS? Why would anyone take even remotely seriously the "Potcoin team" that has not done ANYTHING at all -let alone what they promised- in the last 10 months? First question. Second one: Who the FUCK is going to pay for the doubtfully viable under any circumstances manufacturing and distribution of the "drink"? RELEVANT, no stupidity nor scammy false pretenses with the only objective of selling the coins to idiots, like you just admitted to having done? Who specifically are "they" contacting in the vendors world and what would be the "enticing" deal they can offer them to use Potcoin instead of regular dollars or Bitcoin? Yeah, you don't want to answer those kind of questions, right? Neither do they.

Because you, and them, all full of it. Pure and simple. Neither "them" nor you want anything to benefit the holders of Potcoin, you both just want to get out of it with the maximum profit at the expense of idiots that believe you are doing something when in reality nothing is being done. PROVE IT otherwise. Or, using one of your preferred nomenclatures, STFU.

Because I am a glutton for punishment I will respond one last time.

Your a giant troll for a few reasons. In this instance its because your calling out the idea of an energy drink and you honestly think its a huge sunk cost to get started?
Do you really believe they need to have their own factory, workers, etc? You have no idea how the world works. They likely paired up with whatever company in canada produce soda and energy drinks. I guarantee they hooked a deal to have a potcoin label slapped on a can of a generic energy drink. Companies do this kind of thing all the time.

Yes, the guys behind potlabs and the rebirth of potcoin haven't been as responsive as some of us would like. However I have already covered this in numerous other posts and I will attempt to make it is as succinct as possible. Crypto is NOT like a startup of any normal business, without the support of the community in both buying, talking up and mining the coin either via POW or in this case POS the coin will fail. Its also clear that they don't spend time posting on BCT or reddit, mostly because of asshats like you, BUT they do have a slack channel for people wanting to actually help and guess what, its a live chat with those that have joined that channel so you can ask questions and get answers. I will happily send you an invite for the channel, simply shoot me a pm with your preferred email addy and I will get you in. However, if you post random FUD and other crap that is non helpful I will boot your ass so fast your grandkids heads will spin, so keep that in mind while deciding if you want to join. That channel is not for tech support or "customer complaints" its only for those willing to help potcoin grow and prosper.

I for example am not in a weed friendly state at the moment and I don't frequent any weed forums or discussion boards/reddits. My experience and knowledge is the markets, because of this I am doing what I can to market make pot on both polo and bittrex as they are the largest volume exchanges that are US based. I also setup a few "mega" wallets to get the network up to speed after the devs wouldn't reduce the threshold. @cartmanspc was kind enough to mod and compile a few different wallets for me and others to test to help get the POS network up to speed. Others have likely chipped in on marketing, copy writing, etc.

I think I see a pattern emerging with you and your shit fud posts. Every time the market starts to rally you jump in with some bullshit about potcoin and the guys behind it.
POT is likely bottoming out around 250 by now so you can crawl away and wait for the next time it tries to break 400.

What folder does one put the bootstrap.dat in?

Tried a few different folders in the Appdata/Roaming/Potcoin folder without luck.

If someone could give a detailed description of the procedure that would be great.

You need to drop it in the folder that has the wallet.dat and relaunch the qt.

First quit/exit the running wallet.
Second move/copy/whatever the bootstrap.dat into the potcoin folder under appdata.
Third launch the wallet again and it should indicate that its parsing the files from the disk, when thats finished which can take awhile depending on the speed of hdd and ram, etc it will start syncing from the network.

Alternatively you can grab the quick start pack I have up on amazon cloud. I have a batch file that will launch the qt and designate the local folder for the data so you can move it around and don't have to hunt through appdata nor worry about losing it if you need to reinstall windows.

Thanks!

Turns out it was already working as I had the bootstrap file in the right folder, but it was going so slow I thought it was getting the blocks from the network.
On my PC it's almost as slow as synching normally. Might try on another machine with a SSD drive to see if it goes faster.


Most of crypto suffers from slow syncing. What we need is someone with the knowledge and skill to put some time into tweaking the wallet and see what small improvements can be made. Reddcoin is moving reworking the codebase to be based on the latest bitcoin core, dopecoin has also been in touch 2ith @gnasher about it. Hopefully once RDD is fully refactored to the new base someone can do a soft fork of pot. 

Another option you can consider is a VPS from amazon. They were and hopefully still are offering 1 yr free to new accounts. You can get a windows VPS that will likely be a bit faster than your local system and also not have to worry about leaving your system on or making sure the wallet is unlocked to stake.

There's also NO wallet.dat anywhere in the potcoin folder in the program files. Where do I find those?


Windows: type the %appdata% in stat meniu ant it will show up AppData folder in which somewhere is stored Potcoin wallet, blockchain and so.



Thank you for the help. Now I have put the wallet there and shows the transactions, but remains offline, out of sync and 117 weeks behind because I am not able to put in any nodes. I keep getting the "Method not found code - 32601" message

Thank you for trying to help and if there's anything else I'm not doing correctly, please let me know.

What command are you using in the debug console?
You should be using the following
addnode 127.0.0.1 add
replace 127.0.0.1 with the node your adding, hit enter after each one and you MUST have add at the end of the line or it won't work. Alternatively you can copy/paste the node list from cryptoid into the potcoin.conf file in your %appdata%/potcoin folder, if you don't have a .conf you can create one just make sure that its named potcoin.conf, you may have to edit the name as notepad likes to name it .conf.txt no matter the options you choose for for file type. You can also grab a premade conf from my amazon folder that I shared further up this thread.
