Just so you guys know we are still doing free confessions for a limited time at confessioncoin.com!

... and if you feel like paying the penance yourself, feel free!

The only problem with us paying for them is that it tends to seem like they all showed up around the same time since it's manual process on our end for now. We're choosing not to automate the process (of automatic payouts from our end) to keep spam/non-sense confessions out, but it does have that downside. In truth, we don't care if you don't care ;-)

Dev, have you considered hiring that hype man thisweekscoin? I suspect that this coin could thrive with a bit of exposure.

We have not -- any links? We're happy to get more exposure, as it's still pretty early on for us. But so far so good :-)

It's this dude: https://twitter.com/ThisWeeksCoin He's pretty well known in the crypto community.
I think confessioncoin could do really well if it were to reach twitter/facebook type crowds.

Thanks for the reference, I think our team is on it!

cool coin but you made 1 mistake IMO. it should have been x11 instead of scrypt. i don't want to mine scrypt it's too much power costs

Really??

Not sure why you would be getting that error at all...?
The site is up and running and someone is hashing at 1MH right now.

It looks good from here. Thanks for opening the pool!

Are there technical limitations to the amount of data you can store in the blockchain? I see you set the character limit at 256, but could you put, say, an image in that field if you wanted to? I imagine the blockchain would get pretty large and unweildy if you were to store the Harry Potter series in 1080p on there, but there could be some room for interesting applications.

Just curious -- where did you get the 256 character limit from? That's not correct, it's actually 500 bytes (technically 512, but we truncate confessions at 500). And no, an image wouldn't make it intact (or any binary data) based on how we're passing and storing data.

But yes, storing arbitrary data (that can be arbitrarily large) in the blockchain is something to be explored, although disk space may need to be cheaper, as it could discourage people from running full nodes if the blockchain is Terabytes in size ...

It also gets into legal questions, e.g. is it legal to run a full node if the Harry Potter movie is a part of the blockchain (regardless of if you ever plan to watch it)?

Did we just postulate Torrentcoin?

Could even just store the .torrents in the blockchain.
OP, I mis-remembered the character limit.
Another use could be storing wikipedia entries on a blockchain. Just trying to think of things that would be good to have duplicated/distributed across the globe for preservation.

I think we did postulate it! It's not a new idea though, e.g. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/save-any-files-to-namecoin-blockchain-145278

A developer (or dev team) contacted us just before our launch and asked about the very same thing and we are considering a possible collaboration. It's not a far stretch from what we have built (as you noticed) to lend some sharing efforts for that kind of project.

PM me about this when you have some serious people willing to start... I discussed this with members of the Franko Collective and Cryptsy backroom and we came up with some really good ideas and pointed out where code already exists for most of the needed features. A handful of great coders and a few idea and research people could get a true P2P blockchain based torrent tracker going in a few months if not sooner.

Will do! :-)

so whats up are we mining or re-launch or what?

Yes, the mining has been ongoing. The launch was only delayed about an hour but everything has been up and running since then. There is no need for a re-launch since it did happen, just a touch later than expected!
