Thats correct, (and your comments funny )

We are still working on some other solutions but that is what we have now.

are you ex-military ?
"if it ain't broke, fix it 'till it is." 

so the new name_FLDC_address will work correctly only if using a different address in each team ?
and not allowed to use the original address (the one before adding _FLDC_)

James had to spend today fixing a bug that we found in the new distribution code. What it was doing, is if you had been using an address that you used before, or that you are using on 2 different teams, then the distribution calculator would actually pay you your overall FAH credits on that account. So James was getting paid 1.5 million FAH credits worth from oct 17-19 and we caught it soon enough to were i only got 74000 FAH credits for free.

We have fixed the bug and have gone through all the last 4 days worth of payouts to make sure nobody else was affected by this and we have confirmed that only me and james were getting the bonuses. We went ahead and sent all the FLDC we received back to a new distribution address http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=19r9NGYbPDFQRRozUDkuWpSTURa9fCwEKe that will then be sent out to the distribution server address http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=1GnqL1Ljc3CahMZFZyQPEifq6ayQ3cfW6h to distribute all lost funds from James and me getting unearned FAH credits.

We have a complete breakdown of how we figured out what everyone lost. Basically we removed ourselves from any earnings over the 3 days that the bug was active and redid the calculations. we then took the difference of what everyone was paid and what they should have been paid (without me and james on there) and sent the difference to the addresses. here is the excel file http://foldingcoin.net/index.php/download_file/view/43/143/

This is why the distribution was late today, we wanted to make sure that the bug is completely gone and James has eradicated it. I am just now sending out both the reimbursement pay and the 10/20 pay. Looks like the LTB distribution server is down again tonight so look for these payments in the morning. Sorry this was the first missed day of distribution but we had to make sure everything was alright. Please as always let us know if there are any other issues and/or bugs that you catch. We caught this one super early so that is a good thing

https://masterxchange.com/market.php?currency=xcpfldc is back up and working, go there to buy and sell FLDC, its a pretty good exchange and much better than the CP built in exchange

Of course we are trying to get on the bigger exchanges, there are just limitations with many of them supporting XCP coins.

However i have been really pleased with https://masterxchange.com (which is funny because at the time of writing their website is currently down) and FLDC have been trading on there pretty actively recently. The CP exchange is horrible and slow, but Masterxchange works just like a traditional exchange. Also we are almost on https://crypto-trade.com/voting but we need a few more votes to be able to be traded on their. So go and give us a vote

I'm repeating the question.

Are you planning other exchanges?

I'm getting the same error on Counterwallet and the advices that could be found on the net tell to click "continue" LOL or wait "some time" in patience and "try again". The most probable explanation is their bug.

But in the meantime tried to create a support ticket (the situation lasts too long) and received:
failoverAPI: Call failed (failed over across all servers). Method: create_support_case; Last error: JSON-RPC Error:
Type: Server error
Code: -32000
Message: No module named smtplib

That's why I'm asking again: has Foldingcoin any plans to appear on serious exchanges?

i'm still far away from my FLDC holding goal
this brings me back, and i was starting to get some really good PPD days (one day 300k with 2 GPUs)
not much damage done because I still sent WUs to Stanford.

but this fun, and i can confirm that the new naming method works

it can be fun if we choose funny names and big miners spread among random nice teams (and show up in their top folders stats)

That's what I mentioned in my last post above. Change name and passkey reset your bonus eligibility. And as you mentioned: 10 WU finished with the new passkey plus 80% success rate.
Nothing one do too often. And donors higher in the ranks loosing their position. Good thing: this team/coin is new, not much damage. The current names don't really have "personality"; most can't remember those. Plus myself would not change. Don't  want to loose my history ...

I didn't know that when changing the name I will have so low PPD
now need to wait 2 days (at least) until i will get back to my PPD rate.. i think after 10 WUs

also watch out when copying the username + passkey from folding@home's email
I copied it with a 'newline' in the end of the user name. so my user didn't get any credit until i saw it and fixed

so i have 2 days of very low PPD, all the WUs returned quick so science was still going

We have all the past distributions and past addresses used to distribute here http://foldingcoin.net/index.php/project/distribution-history/


For an in depth look at the amounts of coins sent each day by address go here http://foldingcoin.net/FLDC-Daily-Payout-Summaries/completeHistory.html

We will work on getting something more GUI friendly, but all the information is there and someone could go through it and confirm that no shady business has occured, but to get something that looks like http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=226728 it will take time, but very doable

There are currently 2 devs that put in about 25-30 hours a week and 2 devs that put in 5-15 hours a week so things can take a little longer. Winter is the slow season for me and it is coming up, so i hope to be able to put in about 70 hours a week doing FLDC, so a lot should get done this winter

Payments have continued since day one and we haven't missed one yet but just because I'm a little unclear about your comment, are you having problems receiving payments? If so please post your address you use to fold an I will have a look.

Also the amount has been dwindling everyday since we have gained more folders. This works similar to the BTC dofficulty in which the more folders we have, the less each person makes. We take 500,000 and divide it by the total credits FLDC members have done. When we started we did about 600,000 FAH credit a day so you would get paid about 1 FLDC per FAH credit, now we do about 8.6 million FAH credits so you receive about 0.06 FLDC per FAH credit

i noticed a posting on twitters FAH saying "distribution was complete", i have my desktop & laptop running FAH clients 24/7 

now i check LetsTalkBitcoin for deposit updates and im noticing also the amounts dwindling as well  .

I 1st contributed for Ripples, and now FLDC but for ripple i NEVER noticed/logged into  my wallet to realize i wasnt accumulating anymore since May when i checked in September  and wasted alot of electricity unfortunately.

So im looking to confirm what im reading on twitter updates:
Is folding earnings going to continue ? And if so, for how long incase the FAH project was a MAJOR success than anticipated ? 

It seems like the feedback is generally positive about this new paying other teams. We still would like another system but you guys are right, it would not be that transparent without the address being in there. But let me ask this:

If we could somehow develop software as an extension to the FAH client to add your address, we would loss the transparency of the address being in the name. What would we need to do in order to keep it transparent still in that scenario? Would making the emails public be sufficient, or are there foreseeable problems there? (also we are still researching this, we are not sure if it is even possible yet)

Hello

you don't need to send BTC to anyone
you can fold with the team (or use a compatible username) and earn FLDC
joining LetsTalkBitcoin forum is only optional

http://foldingcoin.net/index.php/resources/step-step/

hello ,i want to join the tream.
i have counterwallet,and  download the "Folding@home".
so  need to send some BTC to u  ,so i get the qualify to participate?

For me idea with new "name system" is without any sense. If you want to receive FLDC you should fold in our Team and make points for our group.

I think that 72 GPUs (waiting for a link to that farm photo) is a lot better than 72 virgins

the way it is now. and adding possibility for using nickname_FLDC_addy is fine.
because of easier transparency, and you can't cheat with distribution.

it won't be good if users sending information to you (and to you only), without the rest of the community is able to see.
this is opening possibility that you will cheat (can choose a nice alice from F@H who doesn't even know about FLDC and add her to the payout..)

Also to add, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SWITCH YOUR CURRENT NAiME!!!! This implementation is meant to try and convince people to stay on their teams and still receive FLDC, this is not really intended for the folks on our team right now, although you can still do this if you wish.

Me and James spent many many hours looking over how the FAH credit system is and it really is not that great of a system. We wanted to implement the "proof of idle" idea (where someone would shut down everything for a set time and email us that set time and their address, this would verify them and keep their username) but the problem is, you can have 100 different bobs, and the code James writes would not be able to tell one bob from another without getting their passkey, which is to remain confidential.

We are so open to ideas about this because we really want to pay EVERYONE that folds, not just us, does anyone have any cleaver solutions that the FLDC team is missing?

This is the first way we are trying to get non FLDC members to join in on receiving FLDC without switching teams, its a first try and obviously is not the best. We have talked with various people about the issue on "keeping your name" and it basically is just not going to happen with having to add your FLDC address to you name. PPlease review the FAH statement https://folding.stanford.edu/home/faq/#ntoc33

If this is not popular we can remove it, but it is worth a shot we feel

The BEST way, which i am talking to software developers about, is to add an extension to the FAH client that could ask for your FLDC address after it asks for your team and donor name. Then this would be a perfect way to ensure people do not have to switch usernames. I will update as this developes, but since this is a communty driven coin, i would LOVE feedback on this new implementation, is this something anyone has a problem with? (and yes, the client will support as long of a name as you want)

Thanks!
