Topic: [ANN] ECC - page 58. (Read 259381 times)

LOL --- yes, at first I thought he was serious as well, but then I understood the sarcasm in his post.

What he meant to demonstrate with his story is that the dev, Griffith, is very dedicated to this project and rapidly responding to bugs & hard at work on its development.

I've just upgraded to the latest wallet and it is great --- sync time is improved and added security now while staking.

Highly encourage all to upgrade to the latest wallet and to keep up to date as new versions as implemented.

Thanks again to Griffith for the great work and fast response to issues as they arise.

It is sarcasm and it doesn't achieve anything good here.

So he helped you out, what is scammy about that?
It was fast? Well some changes don't require a lot of coding. Also, he might have been reported or familiar with these issues beforehand, and already working on them.
unless you are being sarcastic. I dont get sarcasm

Let me share a story with all of you [Sarcastic mode ON] to show how ECC is a scam and Griffith is a Bad Dev:[Sarcastic mode OFF]

Yesterday i was worried with safety, as if you unlock your wallet for stacking, it would be open for sending payments also, and if someone took over your computer (by presence or remotely) could just send coins for himself and you would be done...

Because of that risk, i decided to keep wallet offline, and that would not help the network, or i would get ant minted coins.

Talk about that with Greg Griffith.

Few minutes later he tells me that he is compiling new wallet and adding function where you could unlock wallet for staking purposes, but to send coins, would ask for password, adding more security.
In less than half an hour tells me to download new wallet, and help me to solve few hiccups that were happening.

Well...

[Sarcastic mode ON]How scammy is that? Does Dev cares for community? I will let you decide on that[Sarcastic mode OFF]

Edit: Due to some misunderstanding to the real objective of this message, i am editing it to make more clear my position.
        I am total supporter of ECC since i studied it more deeply almost 2 months ago. I started buying at 1 sat, even when few people were doing it and im holding it.
        If anyone have doubts regarding my position, just read my posts and what i write in Slack or even trollbox.

        Hope it is clear now that my real intention with this post was to in a sarcastic way, towards those who claim ECC is scam, show what kind of Dev we have, by sharing one great experience i had.

Hi Griffith ---- this is a very minor detail in the longrun, but to prospective investors, it is important that every 'i' be dotted and every 't' be crossed.

When you get the chance, could you please correct the typo in your 2017 roadmap image under the Blockchain & Messaging section?  It currently reads:

"ON-CHAIN MESSAGING AND EMAIL WILL E ADDED AFTER FILE STORAGE"

Please fix the typo of 'e' instead of 'be' so that it reads:

"ON-CHAIN MESSAGING AND EMAIL WILL BE ADDED AFTER FILE STORAGE"


Minor details like this turn away some investors, as silly as that sounds, because they get scared away thinking that there is a lack of attention to detail by the dev team.

Very minor thing but just something I'd recommend 

Just be patient....as it says it's loading the block index, it take some time because of it's big size...so everything is fine.

Succes!

how long takes a pos block? i will send some coins

Hey Guys,

While yesterday I had the wallet working but couldn't unlock for staking, today I'm having trouble making it work.
Installed the latest version, working good, but as it will take forever to catch up, I downloaded the snapshot, and after following the instructions, when loading the wallet it is just stuck on ' loading block index'

Any advice on how to make it work?

Hi Griffith,
When you planned added ECC in big exchanges etc bittrex
thanks

I agree with you 100%! I was thinking the same as far as creating a completely new website from scratch (much simpler than it sounds lol). The color concept is already there, green being the main color, so it's a matter of using the correct accent colors throughout the website, whitepaper and etc to make everything pop. All of the information you mentioned wanting to be included in the website should also be fairly easy to make accessible with the exception of real time price indicator, but I know some pretty good PHP developers so I'm sure I could have them create a custom version of that from scratch that pulls it's info from coinmarketcap. After that it's just a matter of using the correct branding techniques to pull everything together which honestly wouldn't be hard for me to achieve!

oh i see! so it will say "out of sync" until it just kind of needs to sync up again on it's own, then the green V happens, and back to "out of sync" and so forth?
THANK YOU! )))

That is totally normal, let it sync, if it is you will see a green "V". It means it is catching up with the blockchain.

Succes

hey guys... more osx issues i think.
i downloaded the bootstrap, the kiklo bootstrap, all installed etc.
it ran "loading block index" for maybe 5-10 mins, says "done loading", then opens properly. BUT it still says "out of sync" in red. i haven't put any ecc in as i don't want to risk it without knowing for sure it works. hell, it could be working just fine and this out of sync message is normal... bit hard to make sense of it all coming in fresh.
thanks in advance to anybody for your time and help with this.

Griffith mentioned the website being hard to pass over to someone else b/c it was written in EJS ---- maybe withy our skill, you could easily come up with a new UI & webseite format from the ground up with the tools that you are most comfortable with?

That would go a long towards attracting new interest ---- I've heard a # of comments that the website doesn't bring enough confidence to them to invest in the coin. 

What's needed is a clear webpage, attractive format with as much information readily accessible as possible (coin concept, white paper (?), roadmap, background on the dev team, links to social media about the coin including the dev's twitter , bitcointalk forum etc, links to exchanges where ECC is available, realtime price indicator (if possible) or link to coinmarketcap, wallet downloads & clear instructions on how to install and troubleshoot bugs)

A lot to ask for but will definitely be worth the effort!!!

Hello Griffith! My name is Lyndon and I am a huge fan/supporter of $ECC. I believe a combination of the development teams skills and interaction with it's backers are a MAJOR part of what will make a coin successful and I feel that the $ECC team has both of those qualities. The reason that I am reach out is because I saw where you mentioned that you weren't to good with UI when it came to creating websites and that is something I am pretty good at and love to partake in along with professional branding. I have plenty of resources available for creating a more professional logo and mimicing that through all of $ECCs counter parts (ie. roadmaps, newsletters, business cards, etc.). I generally use WordPress as my CMS platform and you can see an example of my work at www.Swaggatrons.com. I would love nothing more than to be able to help $ECC so if you think there's any way that I can help please reach out.  

Just tried 2.4.9 and it crashes at start with this error message.



Then I tried 2.4.8 and it crashes as well.



Now trying 2.4.7.7 and start, synced up to block #1478697 which seems to be the same as the explorer's count. Have 2 peers.

What's up with the new clients?

Installed the new wallet yesterday, been running since then but all my coins are "immature" nothing in the available column, 58 million in the Immature. I would think enough blocks would have passed by now to mature them. What to do?

Yes do it.
i recommend ECC to y friends but sometime they complain about the Website :/

True, makes sense.

All i know is that in order to attract more funds in the project we'll need the website to be more attractive for the potential investors.

It might be worth considering outsourcing the website development to a dedicated team that will design the new website. It doesn't have to be fancy, even a well explained one-page website could do the job.
