Topic: [ANN] New Updated Coin LiquidCoin v4 'LQC" (Read 934 times)

yes that's true, they appear to be same files

Is it just my hair hurting, or does this thread make little/no sense without some more words somewhere?

OP posts "update" moments after posting the original, and someone else shouts "I knew this would happen", etc.

I would possibly be intrigued with a new currency if there were any (more maybe) real information presented about it here in the announcement, and the whole thread did not look like a bunch of kids got into daddies liquor cabinet and had a field day.

Generally an announcement has enough information to decide if the product, event, or service being announced meets the needs of the viewer of that announcement.

Instead we get:
"hey look at this neat new thing, it is cool, get some software here, and maybe you can figure out how to contact us on a hashtag at some weird address my browser does not understand"

"update"

"I knew this would happen because bter"

"virus warning"

"what did bter have to do with this" asked several ways, and unanswered by people who are equally unsure what is going on

...

Would OP care to shed some light on this adventure please?
Possibly explain why I need to go buy a new computer with Windows on it,
and/or learn how to use a git-thingie,
or will will this new thing even work without a computer, or with a Mac or Linux, or Atari computer,
or what an irc address is, because I know WWW is the internet, and anything else is bad, sometimes the internet gets grumpy when I forget the www,
or what a LiquidCoin with a cool logo actually is,
or why I want to speculate with it,
or even best of all saved for last of all, where can I go to get actual information regarding this cool thing with all the words many people reading this will not understand (though I do exaggerate this issue here for the sake of those who were not born with a computer in one hand and a smart-phone in the other), who can I contact, etc.

ETA:
And why when I go look at the github codebase, it has not been touched in a year, and appears to be abandoned alongside a stratum mining demo.

This is starting to smell a bit like Mr. Yorgason's halibut on the poop deck to me.

I though LiquidCoin was the coin where the difficulty doesn't change?

Newbies have a chance mining LiquidCoin with the difficulty low

except for the part where I'm still wondering where the bter speculation stems from

so all clear right?

my question was what any of this has to do with BTER. there is no implications of bter in this thread to make you shout out with glee:
"I knew this would happen!!!!!!"

Yea i downloaded said the minerd.exe was bad

seems to be the miner not the client that could be bad

yes that's true, they appear to be same files

this is were all the files came from the original liquidcoin post  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/release-liquidcoin-speculation-based-60026

which part of this thread leads you to this conclusion?
