Yes i know.  But these are questions worth answering.  Doesn't matter if i can wipe it clean, if your gonna sell it you should be able to back that up with how it's being secured for the average person.  Not tell me to just wipe it.  If your not going to give any info on these questions then please just don't answer.  Not looking for a flame war just want some basic answers.



Same can be said for any software/USB stick/CD et al, purchased from ebay etc.
yet you just plug them in anyway.

As always, AV AV AV. If you are hacked its usually the stupidity of the user that has allowed it in the first place.
Diligence should be the most basic concept of PC security - sadly it is stupidity.

Yeah that software doesn't hold my money...  Anyone who buys software or usb's from ebay and just plugs it in is an idiot plain and simple, especially if it has to do with currency.  It's funny how you bring up security of something and automatically it's "fud".  Your praise someone from a new account "Oh thanks man your awesome too".  Double standard.  You guys bring up how bc is not being ran like a corporation.  Im pretty sure a corporation would answer basic security questions for their users.  You guys act like im asking rhetorical questions. wtf?

I answered you - you need AV and should know how to protect yourself.
Who is to say what is on the USB - would i trust IE and just plug it in without making sure I am protected first ?  fuck no way, as I would not from anyone on any forums I got anythign from. Infact I don't buy them for that reason.

Hi all

First off to Iconic, great work bud on the BlackCoin Cards, I can already see them being a huge success for BlackCoin and for crypto's in general. I had some free time today so I used it to redesign the BlackCoin Card GUI. It's just a concept, but I think it looks quite a bit better than the current GUI. Let me know your thoughts on it.

Redesigned GUI



Original GUI




For those of you who'd like to know. I've just opened a web and logo design service here on Bitcointalk : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wulfcastles-web-logo-wallet-ui-design-service-590322 and I'm allowing people to pay in BlackCoin.

My rates are :
700 BC for a Logo
2200 BC for a Website

Regards,
Wulfcastle

HI,

Thank you for your comments and suggestions. I read your PM but I was very busy and I wanted to respond in detail. The GUI is constantly being tweaked and it will continue to be tweaked weeks and months ahead. When designing a GUI you have to take your core demographic into consideration when deciding layout, font size, color, element location...etc..etc. Unfortunately the wallet software has to appeal to a diverse demographic and finding the right balance will take tweaking. There has to be a balance between beauty and functionality.

Your design is very nice but it is not a practical design for my development environment. When you design GUIs for developers you have to know the limitations of the tools being used to create the software, and you have to have a general knowledge of GUI design from a developers point of view. Also, you always have to take the end-user into consideration when designing GUIs. What appeals to a young techie will not appeal to someone in their late 50s that most likely use corrective lenses and cannot read computer font well.

Thank you and keep up the good work!
give me now my 1000BC Tongue for efford KrokieRocks
Do you like that new one or old GUI ? For me new look much better.

Maybe it's a coincidence with all this drama today but Blackcoin subreddit subscriber numbers are shooting up today!

Later I am showcasing a new design I have been working on today so be sure to drop in! www.reddit.com/r/blackcoin

Hey, I checked out the threads about Dogecoin and Darkcoin. You know what? They actually talk about their coin instead of "fudding" each other. Yeah, go check them out if you don't believe me Wink

I love how streams and streams of people keep condemning Iconic, but the same 5 trolls are dingling off his everyword. Shill accounts all around!! Iconic meanwhile is busy trying to do the exact same thing for 5 other coins, while claiming that he is a poor little lamb being prosecuted by the mean ol' people who have put in their hard time, work effort and money.

The foundation raised 15k already by themselves, out of their own personal pockets. What has Iconic given to the community other than taking credit for things that had absolutely nothing to do with him.

What is VERY telling about you is how you seem to know about how to do this/that and use the shill accounts etc.

And this 15K 'raised' is confirmed where exactly ?


The only Cancer of BC are idiots like you posting into our community. Now fuck off back to your cave tyvm.

Im not spreading fud.  It's a concern, not because i think you did anything wrong.  Just from a security standpoint.  Ive been reading on the forums a long time.  Not an attack.  Just wondering what security is put in place.  As i have not really seen any info on it.

If i understood it correctly IEs software does "just" launch the official wallet from the menu, the other functions are part of the "card software".
So there should not be any security loss/issue at all.

Yes.

I'd like to know not as a bash but because the idea of crypto is knowing how/where your money is stored. 
Is the wallet segregated from the rest of the software interaction? 
How is the auto updating done, does it ask the user if it wants to update or does it just do it without input? 
What about possible corrupted firmware,  does it protect the wallet? what happens. 
Could we have the source opened for an update to select developers to look at before release?

Other questions i have but this to start with.

Things i would like to know, and things i think would make the card better if known.

You do not have to use the software on the card. You can wipe it clean and use whatever software you like. This has been discussed in detailed, use the search function.

If they want to be in charge of this, I believe resumes and interviewing for the job is in order. Not just promoting themselves cause they have been here longer or have more coins, or are in IRC the most.

+1 +1 +1

Hello BlackCoin Community
 
As the BlackCoin Foundation we have worked hard in the past weeks and I am proud to present to the community at large one of our most ambitious fundraising ventures to date. As most of you know, BlackCoin is a phenomenal alternative cryptocurrency with substantial REAL advantages over its competitors. We are a greener, faster, coin that is ready for retail adoption and worldwide use… Only the world doesn't know this... That is hopefully about to change…
 
BlackCoin will be the first CryptoCurrency to hire a legitimate, brick and mortar, Public Relations Firm!
 
For several weeks the BlackCoin Foundation has been engaging PR firms in order to find one with the right technical expertise to help promote BlackCoin through various target media (think wired.com, theverge, wsj, financial times, and social media as well). After much deliberation we have decided on a company and are in the process of finalizing things contractually speaking. We are not going to release the PR firm's name until things are finalized, but they have a great deal of experience and are truly excited to be working with us. You will not be disappointed.
 
BlackCoin is Bitcoin 2.0. But spreading this message comes at significant cost. In order to secure a 90 day PR campaign (with options to retain services month to month after the initial 90 day period) the foundation has already raised over $15,000 USD! This has got the ball rolling, but we need help from the community! To finish paying for this venture we need the community to help raise an additional $15,000 USD.
 
The funds raised by the Foundation have allowed us to get things started, and over the next few days and weeks we will providing more and more information about the strategy, including key messages and timelines. Our strategy meetings will be 100% transparent and we will be updating the community about our every move. In the meantime, we need two things:
 
1.) Come up with suggestions! We have a powerful PR firm to bounce ideas off of and now is the time to brainstorm. What do you think is an important message? What is an important venue? Give us anything and everything you got, but please do your best to list your ideas in a concise and coherent manner.
2.) Please donate to the addresses below! This is a monumental and revolutionary undertaking that could very well shape the cryptocurrency landscape for years to come. Every little bit helps!
 
Linked below is a very high-level and preliminary overview that the PR firm provided to us in our most recent conference call. Some information has been redacted and the formatting has been altered (worsened) due to proprietary images (e.g. anything that could identify the PR Firm).
 
The Plan
 
The cryptocurrency world is having trouble competing with BlackCoin as is… With a capable and professional PR firm on our side, the sky is the limit.
 
Thanks and please donate today!
