Topic: [ANN] IXCoin [IXC] The Original Bitcoin Sidechain - page 10. (Read 42310 times)

Vlad, nor his IP logged forum socks matter to IXC until he starts respecting other people again.

You're lucky develCuy wanted to take up IXC himself. He can actually code, troubleshoot with the community, and build working software.

Not trying to be a dick, but if this is another sock just get a life. No one cares about you Vlad. You act like a maniac. Get some help and then come back to the community. No one has "I was here first" rights in Ixcoin. Just like Satoshi left Bitcoin to the world, you should consider building a community of inclusive and forward thinking people.

But IXC will be fine. It's merge mined with Bitcoin. That's just a matter of patience and understanding protocol and different version control patches, software forks, chain forks, community consensus, protocol consensus, etc. etc.

Vlad is the iconic figure of ixc
Develcuy is the operative part of ixc
@develcuy did you check the links I posted, be on xrp as sidechain and get support could be a boost. Possible for ixc / dvc / … ?

Of course I support whatever you choose to do with any merge mined currency. IXC will have its day. But Vlad's obnoxious game theory is something I choose to ignore. He's doing a great job turning the flakier types off IXC. I still think Ixcoin matters and merge mining is severely misunderstood. And if you think you understand it still, from my perspective you don't. IXC and I0C are like TBX and FBX, except BTC came before them allegedly, and LTC came after TBX and FBX. In the end I think the math will pay off and compatibility will moved across merge mined chains. If you really wanna get a good grasp on merge mining and the future for chains that have trouble propagating blocks due to running out of chaumian/hash cash minted PoW "coins" (chains of electronic signatures) of which IXC doesn't have many because of its blank blocks (rewards only) we still have to consider at some point there was a hey day here like for all merge mined originals. Bountys of BTC were traded for IXC. Bitcoin gained its value forward for what it was traded for in its growth. We're doing it different until our day comes, but just be patient. The Gamemaster is the master hand. MarkM might see him in the mirror occassionally. The projects that don't update much or have a silent community compared to before is just imo some good game theory. Some chains are right where they need to be, some just need to be pulled into a bitDNS described merkle tree that merges both chains txns into a master merkle hash like Satoshi described merge mining back in 2010. Then we also need to realize projects like Ripple exist on places that by acquisition and FILE storage (which is pretty much the same deal if they come from NNTP servers themselves) extend certain social networks (which will be the next place payments route thru and accrue value) go back to 1980!!! Spoiler alert, Linus Torvalds began Kernel development in school before the WWW and on that very network and system USENET. He would put his code to a newsgroup and people would contribute, and the Kernel was born. Open Source projects and remote work submission is STILL imperfect, like our blockchains, but we could be as simple as 1 LOC from it all working, or 1 merged blockchain that began in separate repositories and can make one big blockchain with all txns necessary valid, hell... What's stopping BITCOIN from adding merge mining A good podcast that's mentioned in... https://www.audacy.com/podcasts/the-sovereign-bitcoin-podcast-with-juan-galt-21792/namecoin-satoshis-second-coin-with-jeremy-rand-2536433

BTW Galactic Milieu has been going on since Web 1. THAT is gonna be one hell of a a metaverse

Dear IxCoin community,

It's been about 2 months since launched the new IxCoin website: https://ixc.devcoin.org (announced here) and @markm explained the relevance of IXC for the Galactic Millieu (GM) which in turn is a key project for the Devcoin Foundation (DF). As head of such organization I'm concerned about the future of IXC, since it is already an important component of an ecosystem carefully designed by markm and one a valuable type of asset in DF's custody.

What we find currently (and correct me if I'm wrong):

1. No development has been performed since Sept 2015 (only updates to text files)
2. There isn't any form of organization supporting the project
3. The website is outdated (DF is on charge of hosting only)
4. There is only one working exchange, hopefully with some liquidity, yet with low volume

I can't help with number 4, I suck at trading and market making! What I can help with is with 1, 2 and 3. My contributions to the Devcoin project since 2014 vary from reorganizing leadership, community management (recently delegated to @realdantreccia), taking care of main website, maintaining the code base and recently upgrading it from a Bitcoin 0.8.x base to the latest Bitcoin 22.x (and 23.x coming soon), all while holding the weight of an Admiral role (yeah, the one blamed for everything). If you consider that such a background deserve any vote of trust and that I have the potential to make any positive impact for YOUR project, then please let me know your insight here in this forum.

I'm listening.

Why what?Your wallet sounds to be corrupted.Is it the latest version?

Why? Anyway, at the end of the synchronization I had problems and the wallet no longer wants to open. Does anyone know the possible cause?

Dunno about "paying for development" since among the family of coins merged-mined alongside BiTCoin it was traditionally supposed to be DeVCoin whose focus was supporting the development of free open-source software.

So the Ixians have been focussed more on actually building a presence within the open-source metaverse that DeVCoin is supposed to be supporting the development side of.

I am not sure why we don't seem to see the Ixians officially represented on the Galactic Diplomacy planet, maybe because they want to launch an official Civilisation first or maybe at least partly because the Crossfire RPG window into the metaverse is less easily scripted than for example the CoffeeMUD interface thus not so obviously amenable to "CPU mining" / "play to earn" type automated earning of resources with which to build up their presence and accumulate "reserve assets" for the IXCoin treasury.

For many years though a character named "Ix" has been on the fantasy-milieu side of the CrossCiv server offering to buy and sell stuff for IXCoins. Maybe he or she found that to be lonely-enough work that they have not bothered with the Sci-Fi milieu side of it or maybe just haven't bothered to bring attention to whatever characters they might have on that side as being repsentatives of Ix / Ixians / IXCoin.

I do know that at first (meaning over a decade ago now) they had been holding back a while from the Civilisations aspect of the metaverse hoping that DeVCoin would do well enough to go beyond merely supporting key software such as FreeCiv to the point of actually getting new civilisations added (that is, to get a Galactic Modpack, including graphics thus able to implement entire new nations, rather than just a Ruleset as in just the text-file config files) so they could have the nation of Ix as in the DUNE mythos and try to make technology their "thing" like the Ixians in the DUNEverse did.

They also raised enough resources in the CoffeeMUD side of things to create themselves a clan, marrying with the Darlings to test out the type of clan called a "family". Breeding has been slow so the Ixian family is still rather small, though pregnancies are progressing.

http://MUDgaard.knotwork.com:27744/clans.cmvp#Ixians

The clan has taken over a town and built themselves a custom clanhouse, but isn't particularly rich because they have been researching future products rather than simply maximising their production of easy standard fare such as metals, stone, and foodstuffs.

Specifically they co-ordinated with the Darlings to tool up for soap production, only to discover that the version of CoffeeMUD in use at the time was producing soap of zero pounds weight, which is not practical for real use. They continue to stockpile ingredients though in hopes that a future version will yield workable soap. They expect everyone to be wanting soap because at least in theory it should make the process of bathing faster, and all worker characters need to bathe regularly as part of their scripted work schedules. Less time spent bathing should mean more time available for mining, gem-digging, foraging, farming, smithing, cooking or whatever other productive activities characters have scripted.

So yeah there are plenty of activities available. Check out what artisans can do: http://MUDgaard.knotwork.com:27744/classes.cmvp?CLASS=Artisan

Unfortunately however it turned out that running Artisans in the CoffeeMUD is so massively lucrative that it did not take long before the ability to just start up a player-account there for free had to be closed. Maybe with a bit of research, which can be done for free by playing any of the many free CoffeeMUD instances that exist, you could help come up with some reasonable ideas about how best to limit the addition of new players and/or how much it would be reasonable to charge for a player-account either as a one-shot purchase or as a yearly subscription in order to avoid having millions of players join and earn billions of coins of various types maybe without even covering the bandwidth and server costs of running servers...

-MarkM-

Very little any of us can do when we are poor ourselves.Plenty of bitcoin whales out there who can afford to pay for development and whatever but bitcoin hodlrs are the meanest most miserable form of humanity on the face of the earth.

I downloaded the IXC wallet to support the network. It would be interesting if there were more activities for IXC, unfortunately my power is small and I can't do much.

Careful now cornhodlr or you may be in danger of receiving some merits from me with responses like that.

I wouldn't waste money on a lambo.I prefer to help people and creatures less fortunate than myself and I am far from being rich enough to waste money on useless material goods.More money to me only means more food,water,shelter,heat,medical care so I wouldn't be the worst "rat" out there ;-)

cornhole is getting desperate. He has dropped from 1k to 500 usd at the drop of a hat. A true rat ready to dump at the mere whiff of a new lambos interior. Soon he/she/it will be bargaining at an agreeable price.

I can guarantee you all the rats will jump ship if ixcoin reaches 1k.Do you want to buy mine now for 500 usd each?

I have 800 ixcoins in total.When do we get to sell at 1k boss?

Ahhh, what a dream picture you just painted in my mind, my friend.

Dully noted.  And thank you.  Like many, I too lost most of my bags of good coins in cryptsy.  Trying to rebuild now is almost futile.  Almost.  There are back doors to getting back on top if you can see them.  I see 3-4 ways out and back on top with the little I have.  All legal of course.  It all depends how the final boom goes.

Cornhole all ready to abandon ship like a rat before the real babylonian money magick begins. Donate some of that schweet corn to the son of a poor widow cornhole. Living like a bum after my fall from glory and having to endure the company of these peasants who don't know the difference between an old master and grandmaster. I try my best educate them on eating healthy from the the finest dumpsters outside only the finest establishments but the peasants are too apathetic and lazy to shop around even when it's free. I tell you when I get my titles and castles back I will not be inviting these common peasants in case they put their feet up on my table. Only the wise and humble will sit at my table to be fed while the woke dogs and metaverse fools are put to work in the garden reaping the harvest for my deserving guests to eat

He’s in.  How many ixc are you pledging to sell at $1k?  Why don’t more people join telegram.  Yesterday was a war zone.  Haha.  Funny to watch.

More people should join the official Ixcoin telegram channel.  Some new interesting people have joined.  Vlad is banned for life from everywhere so he took to YouTube with his fat face.  Not his fault I guess since he can’t work out.  Mental injury of sorts.  Lol. Anyway, a couple of his shorter videos which are interesting and one about bsv since he’s worked with Craig and might again.  So it’s all related to Ixcoin.  He wears the same sweatshirt in every video.  Must be a dirty Romo thing but hey, it’s nice to see he got angry enough to start doing YouTube cause he hated doing videos. 

Cheers, and here’s the public official Ixcoin room again.

Maybe one day, because I don't have any penny for investments. By the way, good luck Ixcoin and your community.
