Update on the potential security issues mentioned earlier.

As a cautionary measure and since MINT does not really need PoW, we have decided to get rid of the PoW. We don't want to take any security risk.
And since our ego is less important than your hard earned money, we won't have any problem to be thankful to another coin dev if it appears he has helped to increase MintCoin's security.

For now, a new wallet is available and this is a mandatory update!

Please notify every people you know about this update!

What's new?
(1) latest checkpoints
(2) fixed wallet getbalance issue (thanks paspi)
(3) remove pow generation after block 220000

How long do you have to leave your mintcoin wallet open to earn stakes?
I havnt earned any stake on my mintcoins yet, but ive only just updated my wallet.
I dont leave my computer on 24/7 so whats the best thing to do?

How long have your coins aged for?
I usually just my wallet open for an hour or two a day.


OK, well i havnt been doing that, and im unsure if the older client was doing that anyway.
Do i have to have it open for 20 days in a row, or just hold the coins for 20 days?

The best way to ensure you mint new coins, is once the coins you have reach the 20 day mark, leave your wallet open for 2 to 4 hours a day until they do mint. Then once they reach the next 20 days, do the same thing. There is no guarantee that they will mint exactly at 20 days, but they will mint.
Thats interesting ive just looked and about 178 mint was minted, yet ive never even had the client running for the month.

When an android app does arrive, my son would love it if you used this image he and I worked on this evening. I am trying to get him interested in Crypto's so he will learn about our monetary system and new innovations, and so he will naturally integrate them with his interest in digital imaging as he gets older. He's only 11, but boy is he smart! I figure by the time he is in high school, he will be using these things on his phone, so he might as well be one of the ones making the images for them.

I took the picture and told him what I generally wanted, he did the rest.  Cheesy




I told him if people like his works, I will get a wallet address set up for him so he can get tips. Once he realizes he can spend that on stuff, he will be hooked.  Grin

That's a great picture!!

What language did you learn first? What languages do you know now? What languages do you use most?
Ada 95 named after first female programmer ada  lovelace.. used in traffic control applications..

Then learned java delphi c c++ php javascript mysql assembly x86  visual basic..

Now I use c sharp .net and javascript and html the most.

why donate to toward a generic wallet that is going to be built first and used by everyone anyway?

the thing that makes the androids wallet something someone would pay for is if it were exclusive to MINT and you could use a tablet or mobile device to mint

otherwise it's a generic wallet app I'd probably never use

the reason to have a mint exclusive app that mints is that it make MINT something special and therefore more valuable, that's what I would be interested in paying to develop




Sure get prepared to pay 50 btc for a wallet from scratch..

U get what u pay for... Android wallet is gpl so I dont even know if you can close it since your using open source base. Alot of people still havent clued in to the open source movement.. which allowed you to even have your mintcoin.. now you want your pie and eat it too.

Don't get me wrong I'm not opposed to the creation of a generic open source wallet that any PoS coin could use. I just don't see enough value in it for me to donate as much as I would for one for exclusive use that could mint. However if everyone else in the other communities etc donates to make an open source wallet I'll throw in a little too.

You shouldnt have to pay anything for it.. the premine scammer should allocate atleast 1% of the premine to the largest bounty and bam its done.. I cant see any serious investment going on here with a 700 million preminr which is not even used for intended purposes.

The fact the community seems to be the driving force behind an android app and not the developer speaks volumes about the management behind this coin.

As others have stated before departing the community ... it's the AMATEUR HOUR.

It's starting to look like the point of this is more FUD

No, the point of this is accountability and transparency.

You are investors here, you should be looking out after your interest.

Instead you let people lead you down the garden path.

Well, like they say, we all get what we deserve.

Just remember that as time drags on, stories about registering a foundation keep circulating, the pre-mine doesn't get spent the way it clearly indicates it would be spent...blah, blah, blah...

Seems like,

If people want a fully functional android wallet soon and for it to be released before other coins release one, it will probably need to be based on what is already open-source. If that is the case, then other people will be free to adapt it to their coins right away.

If people want a fully functional android wallet that is at least partially or temporarily exclusive to MintCoin, it will probably need to be built (more) from scratch and this may compromise being able to release it soon/first.

Yeah, you're right bro. So, since I and some others want the latter (Mintcoin only) let's see just how many resources we can throw at a bounty! I'm in for 75,000 Mintcoins for a private, custom built app. That's not a lot, but it's something. Maybe there's some of the premine bounty? Other individuals? If we can't get enough, then it fails and it'll be open source and copied immediately - that's the tradeoff.

The developer pre-mined about 70,000,000 Mint which it states is for precisely this purpose.

Why on earth would the community pay to have this built?

Do you offer auto companies money in advance to design you a new car?

DEVELOPERS - step on up and provide some transparency and accountability for the 70.000.000 you pre-mined or you're going to continue to lose people.

And that's a far worse threat than the BC trolls.

OOPS...I believe I made a mistake, th pre-mine was 700,000,000, not 70,000,000.

Surely there's enough for an android app left?

I would have made it long ago but he only offered 2.5 million mints for one.. i laughed in his pathetic face. Not only is he greedy seems he is non existant.. does he communicate in this thread??

He fixed the bug today and added a merchant so I would say he is existent. How long ago did he offer you 2.5 mil? Was it was when mint was worth >40 satoshi? Because that would have been >1 btc and was also when btc was >500 USD. Just curious, I really want to see this happen, how much do you think it will take?
It was around 10 sats near beginning of the coin.. It takes 2 weeks to do so its 3.5btc going rate.

Im working on a penny auction site right now which has potential (www.devcoinauctions.com) so I wouldnt be able to start right away until after this is done.. I have to integrate coin payments still...

Damn, I should have gone into programming...

Heh u can always do it.. I knew coding is the future although
business was is my passion.. but coding provided a means to an end to achieve those business goals.. but like anything its still  10000 hours to become good at it.. so it takes effort to be able to do things properly and not hack. You can always learn on the side so many free books online.

True words. You sound exactly like somebody I know irl who has been egging me on to learn coding on the side. I need to get on it. It really is the future. Just about any field one can work in, programming is applicable. I think I am going to start using codeacademy in my free time.

And that's a far worse threat than the BC trolls.

OOPS...I believe I made a mistake, th pre-mine was 700,000,000, not 70,000,000.

Surely there's enough for an android app left?

I would have made it long ago but he only offered 2.5 million mints for one.. i laughed in his pathetic face. Not only is he greedy seems he is non existant.. does he communicate in this thread??

He fixed the bug today and added a merchant so I would say he is existent. How long ago did he offer you 2.5 mil? Was it was when mint was worth >40 satoshi? Because that would have been >1 btc and was also when btc was >500 USD. Just curious, I really want to see this happen, how much do you think it will take?
It was around 10 sats near beginning of the coin.. It takes 2 weeks to do so its 3.5btc going rate.

Im working on a penny auction site right now which has potential (www.devcoinauctions.com) so I wouldnt be able to start right away until after this is done.. I have to integrate coin payments still...
