As far as cryptsy's mintcoin wallet being in maintenance. it is not an issue with the blockchain but rather an internal issue that effected a few users.

We discovered a bug in security protocol that would see some transactions as unauthorized withdrawals and debit a users account for the amount of the transaction. To prevent any others users from being effected I have taken the wallet offline until the issue can be fixed. This was present in a few coins Saturncoin, Bluecon and Mintcoin.

I am hoping to have the wallet back up within 48 hours. We apologize for the delay it has caused

Out of curiosity can you share this error? Or point me in the correct direction. So many coins are descendants of MINT.

I interpreted an "internal issue" with a "bug in security protocol" as a Cryptsy specific protocol issue. However, I'm now seeing this isn't completely clear one way or the other. Perhaps Cryptsy can comment further?

Why do you think so?

And in comparison to what other standard?

20 days of min POS age is really too long.

If that could be done, then surely a better alternative would be to have a wallet that does that automatically by creating a running "genesis block" and keeping it say 6 months (or less) behind while retaining the last 6 months of blocks.

This is basically block-chain trimming, right? I am not a programmer, but I am a conceptualizer.

If I understand this, it would have to be set up so that it would be created every so many blocks... Like every 1-million blocks. So when the 1,000,001 block arrives it has code that automatically pulls in the information required. Then after 1,000 more blocks go by, the 1,000,001 block becomes block 1. Is this possible to implement? We just need someone who can code it. I really think we should do this if possible. All problems would be solved. Cool

I mentioned this before as suggestions to other Coins as something I'd like to see happen and work with a few people to achieve something like this.

What you would do is parse all the addresses of the current chain in a snapshot, then a new genesis Block would be created with 100% premine and all the Coins sent to the addresses of the previous chain. You guys should talk to SuperClam from CLAMS, he would be able to give you a better idea about it but you will need to look into the znort Blockparser https://github.com/znort987/blockparser and the sidecoin project https://github.com/AugurProject/sidecoin

Still fuzzy about how to be able to do it myself though but maybe I could help in some way? I haven't been able to track down anyone that was able to help me with it, I had talked to a developer from CamorraCoin and he was going to help but then disappeared.

Mintcoin: Get some

What about South X Change? https://www.southxchange.com/

Anyone used them before?

Yep. I have used them. Works good. Had no issues so far. I would say it works at least as good if not better, than Cryptsy. Speedy withdrawals. Got mintcoins within seconds after email confirmation. You can also do 2 factor authentication. The only thing that is different, is the order books are switched around so that can take some getting used to.
It would be nice to get more volume on there, and support exchanges that support MINT. Maybe give them a try next time. I just put up a link for it on reddit to get more awareness too. Also, I put a description on the sidebar, and notification about Cryptsy being down for maintenance.

Keep on Minting my friends

Stay Fresh! Grin

my wallet starts up begins sync'n right away... I haven't had any issues since the latest update

just bought a bunch more and was hope'n to start minting them asap

I have sent a ticket to Cryptsy requesting information and details as to why their MINT wallet has been in maintenance mode for such an extended period of time. Waiting to hear back from them now...

Stake ----> Dump on market ----> open withdraws ----> put wallet in maintenance ----> stake -----> dump on market

No argument there, a running Genesis block would solve blockchain bloat issue for everyone.
