Hello !

I was usually receiving about 180 curecoins per day, but today... only 69, and my folding point per day is stable. On the cryptobullion reward listing, I notice that there are many strange 9.81076500 curecoin rewards for two users.

What happened ?

I bought into Curecoin when it was .00190000 BTC. I'm still holding, but its current value is 3.94% of the purchase price. Is Curecoin going to be completely abandoned for Curecoin 2, or whatever it is to be called? It feels like I've ridden this one pretty much to the bottom.

Sorry you bought high! Nope, all Curecoin 1.0 coins will transfer to Curecoin 2.0, though there may be a coin conversion step due to the major protocol changes. Smiley

Interesting developments!  Regarding the certificates (Curecoin 2), does this mean there will be some collaboration with the F@H devs?  I certainly hope that assuming there is some sort of quasi agreement there will be more interest in Curecoin.

As the system is imagined right now, there will have to be collaboration, in order for them to sign the certificates. However, if they are either not available or not ready for the signing at the beginning of the new coinbase, we can temporarily sign the certificates ourselves, while still protecting both ourselves and the folders by never actually touching the coins. By design, validation of a certificate as block-solving can only happen first on the side of the folder. Here's the general flow, for which I *hope* to put up a blog post explaining in greater detail in the next few days, but as the result of travel may be difficult:

-> User sends request to Stanford, giving them their curecoin address, filling an optional 'extra' field, putting in a secret hash of a fixed-length 'secret' key, and agreeing on a way of getting the certificates back (automatic negotiation, server might give client a URL the certificate will be available at upon completion, for example)
-> User receives a workunit associated with this information
-> User completes workunit, submits it back to University
-> University validates certificate
-> University signs certificate using their publicly-known signature
-> University makes certificate available to user by previously-negotiated method
-> User acquires certificate, tries entire nonce range (points awarded) to find a block, hashing together the certificate concatenated with the secret key (for which the hash is stored in the certificate)
-> If block-solving end hash is found, they can now submit it to the network.

As a result of the above method, there is no way for the university to tell whether a certificate they sign will solve or not solve a block, therefore they would be unable to selectively award certain users with better/worse certificates.

Of course, the best method is tons of collaboration with the F@H devs, but this might not be possible at the beginning of the new course.

Thanks for the information!  This sounds fantastic!

I'm back from the investigation of the foldingcoin.
1: It's no "coin" it's a token without any exchange.
2: Only online strorage.
3: No solid dev team.
4: No interest by folders, I was 90% of the folding power.
5: All tokens in one place distributed once a week.

GO CureCoin!
//Aboy68

Please make curecoin 2.0 a distributed solid coin, we will only have one chance to fix mayor issues miners did not like.
Please add features pure buyers would like to have!
Thats the plan! Any other features you want to suggest for other buyers?

Im not any specialist on this subject, but....
1: A debit card, Where VISA/MC are accepted. Using Curecoin...
2: secret transactions.
3: Quick transactions.
4: Use your cell phone to buy with using curecoin.

We attended the BTC:Chicago conference, talked to a ton of amazing people from all reaches of the world, and are moving forward on public development of the next version of curecoin, with a semi-decentralized computational research payout system based on certificates.

Very interesting !

Curecoin 2 ?

I'm going to throw some hash power at this. What plans do you have for the future of Cure?

They are purely ideas that we are tweaking and researching, but some points of mention:
-Quantum-computing-resistant signing algorithm (thinking Lamport)
-Peer-to-peer layered-encrypted traffic
-Multisignature and round-signature addresses
-Wallet ease of use for merchants (rather than continually pining the client "Did I get a transaction on " you can tell the client "When you get a transaction larger than on address
do "
-Certificate-based blockchain (universities or other entities providing meaningful distributed computing projects issue certificates to users for work done, which are valid for creating blocks on the curecoin network, and could be used to do distributed folding "pools")
-Wallet which enables the locking/unlocking of specific addresses or address pools
-Distributed blockchain storage (where clients, using a simple AI, pool together, each holding certain parts of the blockchain, and redundantly querrying other peers for blocks that they don't have stored)
-A wallet in 'server' mode which would allow any simple 'thin client' to store only private/public keys, and to query a full wallet for txhistory, and to submit transactions signed client-side to the network
-A contract system with built-in software checksums (Two users want to make a contract for a service. One builds a program that verifies the service has been completed. The other verifies this external program is valid. The checksum of the program is taken and written into the contract. Upon either party invoking a completion request, the program is executed on both machines. If the results agree, the contract is finished. If not, then the contract can be contested and a third-party can step in and run the program and verify the result. Programs would be built in a custom scripting language built into the network. This idea is very rough, and very likely to never see prime time. It's an interesting concept though!

Anyhow, nothing above is guaranteed, but we're doing our research, writing test code, testing attack vectors, etc.

This sounds great even if I can't understand half of it.
The question is what are we doing in short time to make people buy the coin?!
Have we identified the actions/features needed to be a "buy" coin?
Or are we happy with this low attention from the community?

As an update to the forums, the Curecoin conference went amazingly well. You can check out a detailed post about the conference at http://www.curecoinfolding.com. One issue brought up was Bitlicenses, which I go into a mini discussion there. If you have anything you want to add to the conversation, hop onto #curecoin on freenode! We will be creating and submitting comments on the currently proposed system.

After the first day of the Conference, here's a bit of a recap: link

Less easily communicated in a coherent update is just how busy the team was making connections and talking to people about CureCoin generally. Today should be as busy as yesterday, so here's hoping the team has another big day!
