This made me giggle... 

Hey mr_random, I just wanted to say that it was a great thing you guys over at Blackcoin did sponsoring the Dogecoin Meet in SF, it's real good to see all the altcoins trying to help each other along....rather than trying to beat each other down....again....great job

Don't worry, one of these guys will tell you how this is not bad news.  Someone might even say it's great news.

Price down to 10 satoshis.

Why there is no POS for 20 consecutive days
1.8 The wallet
how do I
Before interest without entering a new purse

Thanks KSGuy. A member of the marketing team will contact you soon.

Ha, yes, sometimes I forget we have our own parallel language:

I would be down for sharing mintcoin pinterest "pins"
Shoot me a pm with more info

thanks

Er, what the hell is "dogfooding" ?

Just for information - I'm working on a Metro style (what we now have to call "Modern", sigh) app for the Windows desktop. It runs in client only mode (SPV). Although it will naturally target Bitcoin first, Mint and NXT are planned to follow.

I will need to enlist Minters for dogfooding when we are ready.

Is anyone using Pinterest? It will be extremely helpful to our campaign if we open a Pinterest board and follow the campaigns with the images as well. Please contact me either on this forum or by PM.

Can you open your coin control features and sort by list and highest conformations?
Whats the amount of conformations on top entires and amounts in coins?
If you have over 60 000 conformations on top inputs and amount in coins is decent, then you will have your interest coins soon.

Minting icon is already implemented in pull request. We are waiting for merge from mintcointeam. This will provide more info when minting is active and estimated time for getting interest.

It sounded to me like you didn't backup your wallet.dat while upgrading (or didn't put the backed up file into the %appdata% folder before starting mint). If you have your wallet.dat anywhere on your computer (even if it's very old), you will be able to recover your coins. Close your wallet, copy your old wallet.dat into mintcoin's appdata folder, open mint, if you see your addresses but not coins, try "checkwallet".


If you got your coins from mintpal or poloniex, those exchanges are guaranteed to be on the correct chain, so you should have your coins in your address no matter what (even if you were on the incorrect chain while at 1.5, as sender was on the correct chain, the transactions would have been accepted in both chains). Still if you don't have your old wallet.dat, you cannot claim them

Keep your wallet unlocked and open for some time, it will eventually happen. It has to compete with the network to generate a stake

1.7. It's not really neccessary to upgrade to 1.8.
I've got 3,5M.
How long it is open? What for I should leave it open? Coins were for months there and I didn't open wallet. Three days ago open, download blockchain, unlock it....and nothing.

i think it is still open

I like this MINT price at the moment. Gives newcomers fair change to buy.

Well, I did my small part for the evening. Bought ~920,000 to push my small bag over 3M. It was a steal @12! 

It appears someone is pushing the price down on Mintpal. They use a 10 BTC chunk to push it downward. They hit the next lowest, then suddenly 10 BTC gets moved down 1 sat to fill the new spot. This implies they expect the price to rise enough to make buying that many worth while. I believe it may have to do with the rumors of a PoS android wallet incoming.

This also implies a pump&dump will be incoming as well. Could be low as 18-20 sats if they can't get a bigger pump going.

Edit: A pump and dump could actually be GOOD for everyone, as price will rise again and coins will then be spread out more. What the new holders do with the coins matters too.

Do you have an old wallet.dat file saved on a USB ir something? One that you had previously to upgrading your wallet?

If you do have this file, and have not used it yet to try and find your coins, then you are still able to get them back.

Save a copy of the wallet.dat file to your desktop, be sure it is one that you have not used before.

Then, click the Windows Start Button (lower left on screen) and in the text box type %appdata% just above where you typed this, a folder called Roaming will appear. Double click this folder and scroll down until you see the Mintcoin folder. Open this folder and delete everything in the folder, then close out and return to your desktop.

Now, click on the Mintcoin-QT.exe file be sure it is the newest version of the wallet 1.8 DO NOT USE 1.5
Once the wallet is opened and you can see that it is syncing with the network, close the wallet.

Now, go back and click the Windows Start button again, type %appdata% open the Roaming file, scroll to the Mintcoin file open it, then delete the wallet.dat file. Only this file needs to be deleted. Once you have deleted it, copy the wallet.dat file from your desktop and paste it into the Mintcoin folder. Restart the wallet and allow it to completely sync with the network, this will take a few hours.

If the wallet.dat file you used from a USB flash drive was not corrupted from trying to use it before, then your coins will be added back to your wallet once the wallet syncs completely.
