It would be pretty nice of you if it was done Relnarien, I don't see why anyone would object if the blockchain would be the same (noone loses any coins) and no spec is changed either

If the community would allow me, I am willing to fork the latest stable version of Quark to Animecoin's specifications, along with a few hard-coded checkpoints. Even though my reputation is not yet firmly established in the community, I only have 1 account (this one) and is theoretically more invested in keeping my good name than a newbie account that may be one of many. I am sure that Theymos can verify that by checking my IP address. My post history may also be perused if it will help quell any fears on my integrity.

Having said that, I am not willing to take the helm as Animecoin's lead developer. While I do believe that a community takeover is required based on Ani-chan's inactivity, I am much more comfortable serving as a "spare developer" rather than as the lead one. To be perfectly honest, good time management is not one of my strong suits and that is enough of a deterrent in this case.

Anyway, if the community wants me to fork Animecoin via Quark, then I will. If I do, I will only post a download link to the Windows version of the compiled wallet and a link to a Github page containing the original Quark source, the forked Animecoin source, a separate text file listing all changes to the code, and another separate text file listing the IDE and dependencies used to compile the wallet. If someone else with a trusted reputation would like to do all of these instead, then I would prefer that since that means that I don't have to.

Thank you, Relnarien, for your offer. I am always so happy when our community receives proposals like yours, because it proves to myself that I am not alone here: that there are others who also believe in Animecoin, and are willing to help it grow. It's really an honour, in my opinion, to receive the attention of people with know-how enough to improve the Animecoin network. That is the kind of knowledge/help/work I (unfortunately) do not have/am not able to offer to our community.

I want things to happen. Obviously everyone here, like me, wants things to happen. And I would do anything within my reach to help things happen. But things must be done safely, in a sound manner, in order that our community gives firm steps forwards: that is the most important.

From the laymen understanding that is mine, your proposal seems fair enough, with the intention to update our network with the latest developments of the Quark network (algorithm in which Animecoin was based).

Not having enough knowledge on these technical details, I do not feel able to judge your offer or to make a real informed decision on the matter. Once again, I will follow the group decision on this proposal. By group decision, I will always pay special attention to the opinions of some of our friend members here which, with the day-by-day participation, have already earned enough community reputation from my perspective.

Thank you again, my friend.

Success Wink

Any dev activity for this coin?

No, everything works as expected. What do you think should be implemented?

This for example : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6560809

would be great

FaSan

This is a not a problem, it's easy to recompile with new OpenSSL (1.0.1g 7 Apr 2014), anyway SSL HeartBleed fix not so important because bitcoin based coin doesn't use OpenSSL vulnerable functions.

I recompile the Windows version with this fix, Windows installer and release notes you can find here:
https://github.com/testzcrypto/Animecoin/releases/tag/0.8.3.2

Let's me know if everybody need the Mac version.

All rest "X11 algo, with PoW and PoS" this is something which community should decide.
Personally I don't see the reason to change algo to X11.

Thank you, that clarifies a lot.
I do have a small issue though, here the ANI wallet consumes an unusual amount of cpu while it syncs though, and takes longer to sync compared to most wallets as well. I have the same problem with another abandoned wallet, RBBT. All other wallets I have used, which may very well be 20 I have no such problem, so I assume that ANI (and RBBT) had some bug that was fixed by all non-abandoned altcoins, I wonder if someone capable can track it down

Who's in?

I'm constantly votes last few weeks  Smiley

The #1 voted coin there has 1.34307475BTC. ANI is the 19th now, with 0.54039009BTC. A difference of 0.80268466BTC (803 votes).

If we coordinate the community, this number can be easily reached: If we get at least 10 people to vote, each paying 0,081BTC (81 votes each), that's done. It means 4,050,000ANI investment per person (with 10 people comming together for it).

The more people, the easier/cheaper for each person.

At the other hand, from the point of view of a Mintpal user, it is a good thing, because the more money Mintpal earns, the better their services will be (ideally).

If at least 9 other people join this effort, I participate with 81 votes (or the respective proportion, with more people in).

I suggest we coordinate this action for a weekend, as the voting winner is taken every Monday evening.

I like boobies
I run a Anime horror and a Anime SciFi cointest at scificointalk (and used to run a hentai contest at sexcoinforum) that worked out pretty well. Somehow i think something similar could be a good promotion for AnimeCoin also  Grin

Sure, I think Animecoin was designed with that in mind: "Animecoin includes concept for purchasing anime stuff, payments and donations in MMORPG (possible to exchange items of MMO between people), online services, and... A lot of others ways!".

It is a very natural idea to run contests with prizes in Animecoin. Such prizes could be crowdfunded, for example. It could be used to pay for a service or product (for example a manga, a drawing, or a figure). Also, tipping a friend, or crowdfunding your favourite Mangaka. There are so many utilities for an anime community currency like Animecoin, that's why I believe in it.

For all that to become reality Animecoin just depends on it's community. The more animecoins are spread among our community, more it will be adopted, more popular it will become, and more useful it will be.

This coin definitely needs to be promoted more within the anime community at some high exposure events. Comicon would be spectacular. I can imagine someone at the door handing out those amazing paper wallets saying, "Welcome to comicon. Have some free Animecoin." I'm sure once more people find out about it, it'll explode!

We have been giving focus to online actions, but real life actions are also really important.

I have been introducing Animecoin to all my real life friends who are manga/anime fans. Some of them were very interested, and now even have an ANI wallet, but some were not very excited with it. Most of them (I'm from Brazil) haven't even heard about Bitcoin before I've shown them Animecoin/Altcoins/Bitcoin.

The thing is: the more Bitcoin/Altcoins get popular, the easier it will be for the Animecoin Community to grow (there's a huge potential there).

Also, it would be epic to get accepted by a large franchise that sells anime and manga DVDs and/or trading cards like Pokemon. Or perhaps an online store like https://bongocoin.com/

It took bitcoin several years to get to the level of acceptance it has now and it's still not even mainstream yet. I expect it will take altcoins several more years. Maybe I can get put into cryogenic storage with instructions to wake me up then.
