Topic: [ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained] - page 368. (Read 1369807 times)

thanks for the help, i guess i will try and asking around more, and i will start backing up my wallet now since this happen.

It does not look too good, hopefully someone who has more technical insight can help you extract the private key from the wallet.dat.

It is very important to have multiple backup of the wallet.dat, personally I have at least 3 backups on three different medias of all my wallets.

no it just gives me a windows error and never opens

I don't think downloading the blockchain again will help.

Does the mint-qt eventually open after you get the warning: http://imgur.com/5JWED8C    ?

yes

Is the wallet encrypted?

thanks for the help but i only had one back up of it and i recovered it from a hard drive that get corrupt. i am redownloading the blockchain now to see if that helps, than switch the wallet.dat

Looks like the wallet.dat is damaged. If you have funds in this wallet, make a backup before doing anything else.

Then would I try to load a previously made backup of the wallet and see if mint-qt can load that one.

can anyone help me with this http://imgur.com/5JWED8C  .the wallet just crashes after it happens.

people send your coins to your wallet, don't waste the pos stages

Thank you for explaining
I think that is cool that you are contributing to the development on fan basis
I hope to also do a contrition (where I can).
Cheers!

Hi,

First of all. Please remember, that im not in developer of Mintcoin. Simply a fan.

- Minting/staking icon requires quite a bit of  changes and additions in source code. Mincoin source is based on different tree than blackcoin or hobonickels, which have this feature. So its not easy copy from another source. But its definately doable if anyone familiar with mintcoin code tree takes time for it.
- Unlock wallet for minting only from gui is not hard to do. At worst, its few hours of work. If no one else takes it then perhaps i find some free time for it later.
- I somewhat agree regarding wallet.png image. It could be better. I would also like a smaller window size wallet. I already made smaller version of wallet from 1.7 in past. No 1.8 yet. Anyway. This is not my decision to make.
- Most users dont even need .conf file. Regarding installer. I cant do it myself, since im not familiar with windows installers neither do i have software for making it. I agree that installer would be nice as an optional choice.
Also a static build would be nice for windows. Getting rid of those .dll files to make installing client even simplier.
- 64bit? I dont know any reason why to use 64bit wallet instead of 32bit on 64bit system. 32bit runs perfectly fine.
- bootstrap torrent. Perhaps it could be useful in later time.

Okay, I know there is a lot of very smart people here, I need a few of you to help me understand why in the hell there are people who let MILLIONS of Mintcoins sit on exchanges on sell walls all the way past 35 Satoshi?

Do they not realize that even if some HUGE whale came along and started buying Mint with 100BTC, they would most likely miss out on the action anyways? I just can't imagine why you would leave something that will pay you approx. 1.06% every 20 days just laying around where it does you NO GOOD.

I calculated the coins on Mintpal on current sell walls up to 22 Satoshi, and there is 4.5 MILLION coins being given up, just basically thrown in the garbage, why on Earth would anyone just throw away that many coins?

If anyone here has coins on exchanges, sitting at unreasonable sell orders, think about this, then transfer them back into your wallet and leave them there....EARN THE INTEREST....

Good, Dedicated and supportive people are putting their heart and soul into this coin, and there are people just throwing the greatness of it away.....WHY??

I suddenly started having synch issues today, which tells me there were bad nodes in my .conf file. I deleted all nodes and renamed my wallet exe to "Mintcoin -qt -checknode=o.exe"  and everything synched fine.

Then, I sent 1 million MINT to Vault of Satoshi and WOW, it was confirmed FAST.

Nice to not have to sit around with my thumb up my ass with this coin. It moves quick and if I have an issue I can't figure out on my own, I know I can come here, and that is VALUABLE in the crypto-world. We should integrate a link to this forum in the "Help" section of the wallet, as this is the most likely place someone will find answers to their questions already posted.

Nice to be invested in a coin that has great PoS and an excellent price point backed by a strong community with plans currently in action. This coin is my current favorite, and has been my go-to coin for long-term gain. Keep up the great work community!

This is a great idea! I love doing things to help our planet and have been planning on picking up some trash around our lake. The lake is low so all kinds of trash is along the shore. It really is awful that people just throw bottles, cans and all sorts of trash and just think it doesn't matter. I don't know if I can get any good photos but sounds fun anyways.

Earth Day is soon (22nd). It is a great opportunity to bring some attention toward mintcoin. And have fun at the same time and build up the community.

What I propose:
every one of us go looking for a natural spot around your place of living. Print out a Mintcoin poster that we still have to create together. Take a camera, place the poster in a strategic location so that it will be on the shot without obscuring the natural spot. Make some shot (Photoshop is allowed for small modification - do not make the spot looks like what it is not).

Once back home, choose the best one and send it to me with a 3-liner about this location. Why you choose it (particularly beautiful, particularly destroyed by mankind, great memories...) We will post them in a carousel fashion on a website that will go public this very day.

Example text: "When I was young, my mother liked to bring me here and just stay silent, watching the waterfall. We have only one mother. We have only one Earth." Gl0sser, mintcoin user
As you can see, no mention on mintcoin on the text itself, only the signature will be the same. I believe it is better that way, but your mileage may vary.

We'll try to publish it on non-crypto related websites. Even if it doesn't increase the price of mintcoin, it will strenghten us as a community and it is our duty as a sustainable development coin to act this way.

Another possibility would be to not included a mintcoin poste in the picture but to have a mintcoin logo in the surrounding text. I am thinking of regular motivator-like poster with a logo on the right (or the left). I'll try to provide you a sample.

Who's in?

It may take some time, but finally all people will understand what is inflation. Then people will start prefering coins over FIAT.

    
Someone shared this link on our Mintcoin reddit page the other day  http://www.coingecko.com/  as you can see Mintcoin is growing faster than quite a few coins even some that have seen recent pumps so if everyone believes and you take a look at the FACTS the future is bright. Mintcoin has a positive, friendly and very helpful community. Our community is growing all the time and with your help Mintcoin can be Number 1

Holding... Holding... BUYING! Holding... BUYING! Holding... Holding... Holding...

hodl those Mint!!!

buy more Mint!!!

...and above all:



(...below a reasonable floor. Like maybe, 3000 sat)   

I do like mintcoin but hobonickels has way more people holding and staking. Too many mintcoin holders are selling like fucking dumbasses, which is why the price isn't going up. It frustrates me to no end; how is it worth it to sell your coins for like fucking 15-20 satoshis... But most people on here are just looking to make quick buck rather than a slow fortune.
