Fork seems to have gone smoothly. Difficulty jumping up quite a bit.

Appears to be two multipools targeting blocks full time now. Two addresses (8HE8Gzi1ek7UkV9sK8THXiphTcTUHNkYvu and 8Ury6fDpYnVRi97z7tXXnWKzuoWihwsJJn) finding nearly all of the blocks.

Fusion Hash (8dWMopM6t8exAvGc7PQUEtrHdBwgTnktJb) and Fedaykin (8FfmEzodjX7ULWNfWtGEuQS1nJF2sbuzq7) are picking up a few here and there.

EDIT: Things seem to be evening out now. Maybe the multipools are going back to their "other" coins.

Yeh, they will profit shift, they just need something more profitable.  Previously I have been happy to buy up to 800 to keep the market active and the price heathy but I actually think I'm going to stop buying for a while and help keep the price lower.

good idea.

ALL IN!
Wanted to ask a question to the Devs (or anyone else for that matter). I can no longer see my old receiving addresses since upgrading the wallet. They seem to still be attached to my wallet as I have received Octo threw tips (thanks whoever that was) and mining but the only address I can see is the new one I created since downloading the updated wallet.

Go to "Datei" (in german), top, on the left, and then point 6 "receivingadresses" or whatever it's called in english Smiley
There, they are still listed  Wink

You can go into the console and type "listaddressgroupings" and it will show all addresses (and balances for each) in that wallet.

EDIT: Better solution - Click "File" in the wallet menu bar and scroll down and select "Receiving Addresses"

@joshycoin and frameLAlife - Love the site and what you are planning for your business!  Smiley I hope you guys do well!
@Octocoin Devs - I sent you a PM regarding a major overpayment by FusionHash, so I just want to make sure they get their coins back.

Regarding the Avatar's here, you can no longer change them. The forums were "hacked" last year, and they believe the Avatar code had something to do with it IIRC, so whatever you currently have you are stuck with.

thx shell... i was curious about why i couldn't change it. good to know.

Just updated my P2Pool node to the new wallet, Feel free to come and mine on the P2Pool.  Instant payout to your wallet when a block is found (where it then matures).  http://p2pool.thepeeps.net:8888  If you have any issues with stratum, try longpoll instead (still trying to tack down the issue).

+888 For the promo shirts idea

It has been on my mind several times to start selling crypto-promo merchandise. Truth be told though, I do not believe I could handle the constant involvement of processing orders, all while juggling a busy schedule. My strength basically lies in my design skills, as it was a hobby I had spent countless hours on over the last few years.

Why not throw an idea at you guys?

If you haven't read my latest news, I touched upon the community producing some Octo-related media and considered the idea of having an arts showcase and contest added to my news every few weeks. So in the future, why not have a limited edition OctoCoin shirt design contest? Where only a handful of shirts are produced, one being given to the winner, one given to each of the devs, and one being raffled off / given away?

Just a thought

Lets continue my incoherent rambling with a few more things I've wanted to get off the top of my head and into writing

1. Promotional Video - This is in response to the one GWCalvert put together the other day, when the time comes for OctoCoin to create an official video similar to the likes of the "What is Bitcoin" video, I would love to take part. Many people here have talents which are not openly displayed for others to know about. While I know next to nothing when it comes to coding or web design, I do have a passion for video and the like.

2. Reddit Tip Bot - No need to alarm anyone, but I'm almost certain it's down devs.

3. Featured Page - @FrameLaLife and @JoshyCoin , you spelt my handle wrong Cheesy I would give the text a revision and maybe even not name drop me? I wouldn't be offended - I don't necessarily have the most presentable username when it comes to displaying it on a website that will potentially be viewed by some looking to invest. However, do give credit where it is due Smiley

4. How does one add a picture to their profile? - I'm leaning towards one similar to what shellbunner has. I cannot find any means of throwing a picture/gif onto my profile. I made this http://i.imgur.com/jtRPjPw.gif

I think that's all for now...

oh yeah, and as a mac OSX user, i cannot wait for the OSX wallet. even if it's a little skimpier it will be nice to have a wallet on my macbook so that i can keep my octo spread out in separate wallets.

Will be back with an update later and, hopefully, the new Mac OS X wallet as well - we have one "Mac guy" on the team and he is out of town for the 3-day weekend. If it comes to it, I will set up a VM at the office and wrap it up even if it isn't as fancy as the final version will be. Tonight's update will likely be the last pre-fork update.

As far as 888 merch goes, you have a green light from us. In fact, let us know before you order anything (and your distribution plans) and our investors will likely cover a portion of the costs. The majority of our internal marketing efforts will be (at least initially) more focused on the apps and services we produce than the coin itself. While this obviously has a direct impact on exposure for OctoCoin the community and grassroots marketing are equally as important to organically build OctoCoin.

Thanks for the follow up on this! We will pm you when we get the ball rolling  Cool

well let me be first on record as saying that i'd buy an octocoin t-shirt. the green/black colour motif could be handled in many different ways. i'm thinking like an oversized off center logo over the top torse/shoulder that crawls onto the back. maybe don't even use any text, just something ubiquitous, like a skateboard company logo or something, could look pretty sick.

also great post LA, look forward to keeping in the loop Smiley

Thanks for the support DJ!
