Topic: [ANN] IXCoin [IXC] The Original Bitcoin Sidechain (Read 42681 times)

Please kindly refrain from dumping your bags cornhodlr until I have some btc to place my buy orders for them 

Well I guess that is why folks prefer keeping the price low and building the buy-side order-book strong rather than higher.

If there is expected to be a threat of dumps all the way up maybe slow strong building is going to be the best way to go all the way instead of piling higher but thinner columns of offers although those too sometimes work to trigger a dump and thus hopefully bring us closer to absorbing any anyone still wants to dump.

What incentives do whales if any even exist at this stage have to not dump their bags when the price goes higher?It's their money so they can do what they like with it really.In the real world stakeholders who could crash a market are given incentives and perks to sign contractual agreements that prevent them from wrecking the global economy and why not?They have the money and they should get the incentives to comply with bonds they make.Is there a diplomatic passport or honourary degrees being handed out by an ixcoin corporation or bank or a knighthood by the king Vlad going to be bestowed upon them for their loyalty and staying bound to their agrements?NO there isnt so why would they care about the ixcoin community or the coin apart from making a mint and who could blame them?Although I think they would be well resigned to the fact ixcoin has been worth basically nothing and will continue to be worth basically nothing because you cant use it for commerce as nobody accepts it and even if they did there is not enough liquidity for a merchant to even look at it.

I did it already but they havent let anyone know if they will even return Ixcoins or any low value coins for that matter. Probably not worth all the effort sending them your passport and doing all that selfie shit like a mugshot for a criminal if its only 600 but if its ever worth a dollar again thats 600 dollars potential payday if ixcoin does a pump for if , that is if they ever do return them so its your call. Risky, you give them all your data that could eventually end up hacked and sold across the dark web with some dude in nigera or wherever getting a few credit cards or loans in your name and get nothing in return so its risk versus reward.

It was worth it for me because I just got 3k worth of btc off them 2 days ago so happy Christmas for me at least.

I definitely had around 600 because I had it written down with any altcoins I held but I think I bought more just before the hack happened and may not have recorded it but I have 1720 IXC written as total IXCoins held although I don't have any wallets containing coins so assume it must be the total held there as that was the only place I traded IXCoin. I sold all the others I had there before the hack and thankfully got what little bitcoin was there out of it.

I might register up and see although I have replaced what I lost there using freiexchange so have a nice stack of 3k and will buy more once I get some btc.

I hope they dont keep all the IXCoin that was there because thats probably the lions share of IXCoin in existence and would be like a sword of Damocles if it ever reached a dollar or went higher again 

Do you really know how much of what you had there?

I had thought I had none or almost none BiTCoin there until they let us in to look; it turned out the tiny bit of BiTCoin I had had as buy-sides for my IXC and I0C there does not seem so tiny after all these years...

Plus just possibly the more folk who insist they still want their IXC and I0C the more chance they will give it back rather than just steal it themselves?

Also the sheer fact of not knowing what was going to happen to all the IXC and I0C there has for years discouraged building up of the prices of IXC and I0C on their remaining venues; once we are sure we have re-absorbed all those missing coins we can start working the price up; while so many coins are still expected to likely get "dumped" the building of the buy-side has always needed to stay low and deep waiting for those missing coins to get dumped onto it...

For years they have in effect used that threat of a "dump" to suppress the prices, lets not allow them to use that very suppression as excuse to not give us our coins back!

Has anyone seen the latest update from https://cryptopia.co.nz   it looks like they will be giving back some funds to victims of the hack after all this time. Will they be giving people back their ixcoin or is it worthwhile signing up for it? I didnt have much there apart from a few hundred or maybe even over 1k ixcoins and maybe some worthless altcoins so wondering if its worth the jumping through all the hoops to get it back. I dont mind registering up if they are going to pay out the ixcoin buy no point if its only for bitcoin and people with large deposits.

It seems to be doing just fine on FreiExchange, starting to get a not so horribly weak buy-side built up for it...

What has always puzzled me though is why IXCoin always seems to get so much more attention than I0Coin, when I0Coin is in many ways the better coin of the two?

Like right now IXCoin is still giving miners a whole coin per block from its recycling reward pool isn't it? Or has that run out?

While I0Coin's block reward is a small fraction of a coin, so in principle there should be less I0Coins coming onto the market per day making it easier to keep up with its inflation and build its value upwards?

Also I0Coin of course has faster blocks too, which a lot of users supposedly prefer.

I have a funny feeling that the whales dumping their stacks of iXcoin on freiexchange are going to have flashbacks and remorse from their hindsight over the next stage in iXcoins's life cycle. Some may even be suicidal if they have dumped all they own for a few worthless dollars 

can we say that ixcoin was the first real competitor to BTC? or lets say fork? created on May 2011, this is a gem.....
if this is true then the narrative is big here.... people pumping WMC because was the first token created on eth chain, but this being the first btc fork is still dead? come on......revive this shit

Hmmm what makes you so sure?Vlad has even stopped making his hopium videos:-(

Hi. Is it still alive?

That is supposed to be part of the appeal of various forms of "group", from small guilds, clans, societies, associations, political parties on and on all the way up to "civilisations"... They should be serving as means of decentralising the organisation of everything from help desks through acting as brokerage agents to provide their members with access to markets and platforms some (many even) users might not feel "up to" handling themselves personally.

Even such a to-some-folk simple thing as running a Horizon node of their own confounds some players, and not always for such "simple" reasons as their ISP (Internet Service Provider) defaulting modems to having UPNP (Universal Plug and Play) turned off; a lot of folk who are not already hardcore online-game players have no idea how to route incoming connections to whichever machine inside the house runs the thing the incoming connection is trying to connect to.

Clans, guilds, associations, parties etc - in short, groups - can help by maintaining such services for the benefit of their members, or even, potentially, also for others.

Of course, groups are themselves part of a "slippery slope" back from total decentralisation toward centralisation, which is perhaps part of the fascination of the whole individuals versus societies or even civilisations tension.

I must do more research into how to do all this stuff because it is hard for me to get my head around it all. The spirit is willing but the technical acumen is weak.

Super , thanks for the link. I was going to give you a merit but I don't have any  I am trying to work out the safest best wallet to connect to Uniswap. I used metamask a few times before but lost trust in it and not keen on browser extension due to stories of data vulnerabilities and pasword leaks ,hacks etc. I searched for myetherwallet on the options list but not there. Will do more research later though. Thanks.

The next hurdle the Ixians (and likely the Devos and various others) are looking into is actually making the jump to being "civilisations" since MUDgaard player-accounts are actually owned by "civilisations", the only way the Ixians et al even have the use of any such player-accounts in the first place is some friendly "civilisation" made such accounts available for them to use.

If they can make the jump to forming an actual "civilisation", they will be able to pay General Hosting Corp aka Galactic Holding Corp (GHC) directly rather than going through some actual "civilisation" and thereby also optionally retain the lion's share of the fees in effect due to the paid fees mostly accruing to the value of the GHC "shares" that, as a "civilisation", they will have the ability both to hold and to add into their "official treasury".

Then of course they can start reaping profits also by making such accounts, which in bulk they will be able to get discounts on, available to others.
