HI guys, I can do with some help with the mac wallet 1.3

It won't sync at all, just says "No block source available"

I sent catedoge an email but no reply!

Is anyone having the same issue? any fixes?


thanks

I sent you an email. I missed out on your email before. Hope you can get it sorted out now.

How about considering future coin developments such as POS?


I am not convinced of the goodness of Proof Of Stake. Don´t you think it reduces/eliminates the privacy? Even I have read it is not secure.

"5) Other individuals may prefer the privacy associated with dropping out of participation. These individuals are still welcome to use the network, but must face a wealth tax of 5% per annum to compensate for the security risk created by their behavior. "https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Proof_of_Stake

And other problems could arise:
"I think Andrew Miller put it best: "The trouble with Proof-of-stake is that there is nothing at stake."

Consider the basic function of proof-of-work and the blockchain: together, they let the network come to a consensus when there are two (or more) different, competing chains.

Miners must decide to dedicate their hashing power to just one chain-- they cannot "bet on" more than one. So their best strategy is to work on the chain that they think most other miners are working on, and that quickly drives the system to a consensus on a single, best chain.

The trouble with proof-of-stake is there is no natural incentive stopping a miner from assigning their stake to multiple, competing chains. If you try to create such a system, you "go meta" -- you started by trying to solve the transaction double-spend problem (which proof-of-work and the blockchain handle nicely), and end up trying to solve a proof-of-stake double-spend problem."

I am not an expert on this matter but I don't like PoS.

There are some good criticisms and there is also evidence that POS combined with POW can make the blockchain more secure from such things as 51% attack.... however I take your point that there may be security and privacy issues with POS.

My comment was rather to prompt conversation and discussion about POS and if it is right to consider it for this coin. For example EBT has a combined POS / POW scheme and appears to be doing well out of it even though it is Scrypt. There, up to now, has been no issues with security etc.

I was just thinking that POW with POS should not be ruled out for the future.... but with correct discussion, research and evidence of security.

Proof of stake is actually a good way to prevent 51% attack. Plus it makes a coin more scarce and valuable in the long run. Even if it's down for sometime. Intensive work of hashing over years wastes a lot of electricity. Couldn't think about it before.



Read this, by Anonymint:

"The other attacks you describe all derive from the fundamental reason I declared all non-proof-of-work systems to be insecure back in April.

My logic was mathematically fundamental. The input entropy set is quite deterministic and well known and thus can be preimaged. For example, accumulating a lot of coin-days-destroyed and then targeting them in clever ways to subvert the security.

The randomness (entropy) of each proof-of-work is fundamental and mathematical and it can not be preimaged. It can only be surely defeated with > 50% of the network hash rate. Note I recently offered what I believe to a solution to the selfish-mining attack (the one at hackingdistributed.com that claims 25 - 35% attack).

I am skeptical that you can characterize all possible attack vectors of proof-of-stake in one coherent mathematical proof. Thus you will not know formally what the security is; instead a list of adhoc attacks and counter-measures."

is there a successful forking of any pos coin through an exploit or vulnerability in pos system?
Like when we talk about 51% attack. it is understandable that the person with more than anyone else can modify the code at x block height and fork the thing. What I still don't get is. How does a 51% attack convince nodes to continue to fork blockchain? Like theoretically it sounds old. Let's say if someone forked the chain. now there are 2 chains, chain A and chain B. Chain is the "official" blockchain. Everyone including exchanges, and less than 51% of community is mining on old chain. How does chain B (the forked chain has its use?). Can't we all just neglect it and nothing would happen? And eventually people mining on chain B will also figure out (in a day or two) and will move mining power to chain A?

Just gave the first 1000 CTD to a new reader on Reddit - 249,000 CTD left to give away to new subscribers and people who promote on Reddit

This community is alive and kicking

CateDoge has a lot going for it...... more marketing and promotion would do this coin a world of good.

May I suggest on Twitter, Facebook etc.

In that web page, the link to hardcoreminers is wrong (in Additional Resources section).

Wow, really weird to link to pool.mn.

i am not in control of that article.

We need many things done for the coin.
Incl.
Block explorer.
online wallet.
A service or a donation to charity, which is only possible once we get our coin listed on a exchange. We'll surely see volume on bigger exchange.
Anyone with ideas?

Dev, for calcultator + stats this site could help:

Someone (Atrides), recommends sites of fun clubs (fantastic, sport...), you need to awake an interest to the owner in getting the donate in CateDoges. "You have to speak to ONE man, and he dustributes FOR YOU to ALL HIS FUNS your coin by himself, just because he has nothing to lose and it is also exciting and modern."

hi dev...

i voted this coin in mintpal

remember all catedoge users... that you can vote every hour, 5 times...

i think fast nobody is voting this days...


i have a friend, that have a company, in red socials like fb.. they create the account and they make publicity there..

i think , something like 100 -200 dolars, we can pay a 1 month... is that expensive?

perhaps.. 50 users of the coin, can give 2 to 4 dollars? or btc?...

but dont know if something like that is usefull..


also we need a good use for the coin... is not enough thats is a good and secure coin, and  kekacc... we need more..

so lets hear more ideas....


The first idea is that this CateDoge coin based on the Sha-3 Keccak algorithm is a very secure way to store value:

As I have read Keccak is even secure against hypothetical future quantum attacks!  

Futhermore, it is very energy eficient to mine it.

So CateDoge is an extremely safe, very energy eficient cryptocoin with rapid transactions. I think it has great potential. These are the reasons I am mining and holding CateDoge (not for fun).

keccak is still not widely accepted and making apps for it is difficult as well  Sad I haven't seen any help from the community either.

To replace SHA-2, the SHA-3 Keccak was selected as winner on October 2012, so Keccak is very new, though Keccak based coins are already a crytocoin class wich is significative.

By example, as of today, MaxCoin (keccak, 30sec/block, total 100,000,000coins) is 0.00022BTC and is being accepted by some services, so market for keccak does exist.

hi dev...

we need to think , a new use for the coin...

only for fun, is not enough.


there is a lot of charity for persons, what about animals??


catedogecoin, to help cats and dogs from street...


we need a better use and marketing for the coin, then a better exchange..
