Topic: [ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained] - page 422. (Read 1369809 times)

Yah he is to busy I was just saying he is interested in pos coins for android and his git repo seems like it is easy to fork for other coins why start straight from the bitcoinj because then we also have to figure our how to get the mbtc out. when he has already done most of the work as far as bringing most of the variables to one class like total coins genisis block block size blah blah blah. However peercoin does have a fork of the myceluim wallet that interests me. But seems like it is still in heavy development.  Sorry about spelling and grammer mining on this computer and being so slow lol.

For anyone who wants to pledge Mintcoins towards these bounties, Please PM me the amount of the pledge as well as which bounties you want to donate to. This is for logistical reasons, so I don't have to scroll through pages upon pages of forum posts to confirm whats been pledged and to where.

Thanks

I did quite a bit of reading on Hash Engineering last night, and it seems like they are currently involved with 3 to 5 other wallets and are not taking on anything new for the time being.

If they are interested, they are more than welcome to participate the same as the others that have said they will be working on it.

why not fork off hash engineering digitalcoinj he implements alot of stuff into once class for easier porting of coins

When do you guys think Mintcoin will reach $0.01?

Will it be August 01, 2014?

Will it be September 01, 2014?

Will it be December 01, 2014?

Will it be March 01, 2015?

Here is a little lesson on some issues with building a android wallet
Bitcoin wallet uses spv (simple payment verification)
      a. bitcoinj is a java implementation of this
     b. This allows multiple clients to Download header only files of the block chain.
Currently there is no implementation for pos coins to do this
a. The Blocks that are created threw pos and pow are different and this information is not stored in the block header.

              1. Not sure how this works now that mint is pure pos
            2. the app needs this information to work so this is a large bridge to cross
Hash engineering digitalcoin and digitalcoinj great repo to fork for wallet a. PROS
  1. He implements multiple variables into one class for easy porting of the code

     2. He has not implemented pos coins but he is very interested in the process.
b. Cons
  1. currently pow only
   2. Alot of coding required the cpp to be rewritten in java
I have been combing threw cpp code of mint coin and let me tell you the main.cpp between mint coin and bit coin for pos vs pow coin is very different. This will be a lot of work or maybe very easy work for smart person.
My Views:
Yes there is a nice bounty on wallet but I think we need a small development team I am willing to be a part of. Bounty will be split If the team completes app.
Set up a donation address There are plenty of people who would donate mint to make this happen. It would be a nice incentive for developers to know there getting payed a little bit for work they do. If people donate and developers are contributing they should be tipped as there going along. This will allow more motivation and stronger community support.

I will still be donating the 250K Mintcoins and just go ahead and divide it how you see fit. Also I think everyone needs to be thinking towards the future in other ways such as working together on marketing strategies. I will donate towards marketing as well because along with the android wallet I believe that will give Mintcoin a huge boost

Thanks, i think i try mintbay

That's a great idea!

I will contribute my previous 500K MINT bounty for an android wallet that mints. So add my contribution to the minting bounty only please.

I feel that is an critical component of the wallet. The ability to mine without special farms or equipment is going to bring the elements of decentralized production and the network effect generated thusly back into the cryptocurrency game and catapult the whoever does it first to the top of the market.

This means this is a shot to outcompete btc, much less other alt coins. This window of opportunity will close rapidly.

You could try http://mintbay.net/ and set up an auction for it.

Well, things seem to be moving along nicely now, there have been a few community contributions added to the bounties since I first posted it. Here's a new breakdown of them:

Here's the outline of the graduated bounties from the Developer:


1: Basic Android Wallet for Phone and Tablets         5,000,000 Mintcoins
2: PoS Coin Minting Feature                                    3,500,000 Mintcoins
3: Battery Management Feature                               1,500,000 Mintcoins


Here's the community donations so far:

stormia donated 200,000 Mintcoins (125,000 for basic wallet 50,000 for Minting Feature 25,000 for Battery Feature)
Jeff Jefferson donated 300,000  Mintcoins (100,000 for basic wallet 150,000 for Minting Feature 50,000 for Battery Feature)

So total bounties so far are:

1: Basic Android Wallet for Phone and Tablets         5,225,000 Mintcoins
2: PoS Coin Minting Feature                                    3,700,000 Mintcoins
3: Battery Management Feature                               1,575,000 Mintcoins

Thanks for the donations so far, and thanks go out to the people that are currently working on the wallet. As more donations come in, and more news of the progress of the wallet is made, I'll post here for everyone to read.

Any1 know where i can sell a GPU for Mint?

This is great Paspi, glad your looking into it. when you submit anything ti Github could you please post a link here so that others are able to access it?

This worked, mintcoin is installed and running, but uses 99% CPU, this is normal?
and also, this question might sound noobish, sorry, its because it is: mintcoind command starts the wallet in the background, but how
do i start the gui?

Thanks in advance

it's really awesome that you want to give it a shot. i believe you can do it!

i've tested the dogecoin wallet which you can download here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.langerhans.wallet

i think its really nice and simple. people on play store also like it. here is the github for it https://github.com/langerhans/dogecoinj-new

if something goes wrong or there are problems maybe we could just contact the developer and ask whether he's interested in making a MINTCOIN wallet?! he already has a bitcoin wallet so maybe a mintcoin port is possible.

This is great! Lets see how much we can raise on top of this as a community.

hmmmmmm,mintcoin faked too
