Topic: [ANN] [888] [SCRYPT] OctoCoin ◦ The Power of Eight ◦ Don't Blink - page 159. (Read 297708 times)

Sorry to clog the thread with yet another client/wallet problem, but I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this: I don't seem to be able to send Octocoin from my wallet.  Blockchain explorer agrees I have them, when I send they get broadcast through multiple nodes, but I get zero confirms and blockchain explorer doesn't see the transaction ID. Nothing.

Any ideas?

When will we see the plans and teasers? 
I cant wait for it. I really got a good feeling with this coin and i'll collect what i can 
But maybe before releasing the stuff we should go on mintpal/cryptsy. So keep on voting!

Hmm, I was having some trouble this weekend an they got back to me.  I'll shoot them an e-mail for you.  Then again I didn't out them as thieves to the forum. 

Great pool,
recomended!!!!

Cheers

In Chinese tradition, certain numbers are believed by some to be auspicious (吉利) or inauspicious (不利) based on the Chinese word that the number name sounds similar to. The numbers 0, 6, 8, and 9 are believed to have auspicious meanings because their names sound similar to words that have positive meanings.

Eight
The word for "eight" (八 Pinyin: bā) sounds similar to the word which means "prosper" or "wealth" (發 – short for "發財", Pinyin: fā). In regional dialects the words for "eight" and "fortune" are also similar, e.g., Cantonese "baat3" and "faat3".

There is also a visual resemblance between two digits, "88", and 囍, the "shuāng xĭ" ("double joy"), a popular decorative design composed of two stylized characters 喜 ("xĭ" meaning "joy" or "happiness").

The number 8 is viewed as such an auspicious number that even being assigned a number with several eights is considered very lucky.

In 2003, A telephone number with all digits being eights was sold for CN¥2.33 million (approximately USD$280,000) to Sichuan Airlines in Chengdu, China.[2]
The opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics in Beijing began on 8/8/08 at 8 seconds and 8 minutes past 8 pm local time (UTC+08).[3]
A man in Hangzhou offered to sell his license plate reading A88888 for ¥1.12 million (roughly $164,000).[3]
The Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia each have 88 floors.
The minivan that GM makes for the Chinese market is called the Buick GL8, but the minivans it sold in other countries didn't have that name.
The Air Canada route from Shanghai to Toronto is Flight AC88.
The KLM route from Hong Kong to Amsterdam is Flight KL888.
The Etihad Airways route from Abu Dhabi to Beijing then onwards to Nagoya is Flight EY888.
The United Airlines route from Beijing to San Francisco is Flight UA888, and the route from Beijing to Newark is Flight UA88.
The Air Astana route from Beijing to Almaty is Flight KC888.
The British Airways route from Chengdu to London is Flight BA88.
One of Cathay Pacific's flight numbers from Hong Kong to Vancouver and New York is CX888.
Singapore Airlines reserves flight numbers beginning with the number 8 to routes in China and Korea.
In Singapore, a breeder of rare Dragon fish (Asian Arowana) (which are "lucky fish" and being a rare species, are required to be microchipped), makes sure to use numbers with plenty of eights in their microchip tag numbers, and appears to reserve particular numbers especially rich in eights and sixes (e.g., 702088880006688) for particularly valuable specimens.[4][5]
As part of grand opening promotions, a Commerce Bank branch in New York's Chinatown raffled off safety deposit box No. 888.
An "auspicious" numbering system was adopted by the developers of 39 Conduit Road Hong Kong, where the top floor was "88" – Chinese for double fortune. It is already common in Hong Kong for ~4th floors not to exist; there is no requirement by the Buildings Department for numbering other than that it being "made in a logical order."[6] A total of 43 intermediate floor numbers are omitted from 39 Conduit Road: those missing include 14, 24, 34, 54, 64, all floors between 40 and 49; the floor number which follows 68 is 88.[6]
Similar to the common Western practice of using "9" for price points, it is common to see "8" being used in its place to achieve the same psychological effect. So for example menu prices like $58, $88 are frequently seen.

Keep voting to get it on Mintpal

This is interesting news. I've been to Macau a few times before and the amount of gambling going on there is insane. If in the future it turns out that there is some connection between Macau and its gambling sector and OctoCoin I would definitely keep an eye on it. Also, Chinese are in love with the number eight and the simple fact that everything about OctoCoin seems to center around this number could mean a lot.

Just my humble opinion. This is my first post so have mercy on me!  

Yes, cryptoaltex.com   

Is Octo on another exchange other than cryptorush?

Yep, all good now. Ran -salvagewallet with qt shortcut did a job to cancel that transaction and coins returned to my balance and with a fresh install of octo qt with my backup wallet i can make transaction now without a problem, so its all good now 

-salvagewallet was in the command line? sweet. i've never noticed that one before. i'm glad you got your coins safe and sound. it had to do with the CR wallet being down for maintenance when you sent them. sombody should sticky this post ha.

I feel for you. Poor guy. Stuck with Comcast.

Cox used to be the monopoly around here but sold out to Suddenlink. I couldn't be happier with suddenlink. They don't care how much bandwidth you use as long as you aren't just blindly torrenting everything off TPB, that'll get you in trouble, but of course, seedbox!

So, today's my birthday! Stayed up all night translating some source code to Chinese for a guy. Is Octo going to have a Chinese localization for the wallet as well? That'd probably interest our Chinese friends. They really like animal coins for some reason.
