+1!

yay!!! Let's get ahead with this project

TMX, I really would like to send Busoni @ Poloniex the info on when/facts etc...

And I speak for everyone else... lets get going!

The captcha tries to prevent bots. But it's already possible for bots to read the captcha ^^

Isn't that what all those annoying captcha things are supposed to prevent? 

Faucets have their challenges too... i've run a few since the original PMC one now.

What I have learnt is people tend to get a server with hundreds of IPs and basically change the IP, request funds with a new address. Rince and repeat. All automated ofcourse.

I worked out a way to prevent these scammers now so if we want to run a faucet to distribute coins it can be done in a controlled fashion.

My favorite Faucet 

http://lottocoin.org/faucet/

I actually like the faucet idea.
Create a smart faucet that only gives out 10-100 coins per person a day. This will draw out the giveaway and significantly increase the amount of bag holders. Limit the total amount given out in a single day as well as a safety protocal in case someone tries to drain the faucet.

Exactly, that's why I asked if it was still possible

Any false positives from virustotal will make the coin far less popular. It's better to get rid of them than telling people to ignore them.

Yes... two actually...  a Swap ANN and a regular coin ANN

I read somewhere backwards that there'll be a new ANN thread with all the details for the PMC-PMP swap and the giveaway once the details are fixed and everything else is ready.

Is PMP going to get a new thread once it's ready and live?

Great to see the community pulling together....

I like the activity in this thread

@TMX: if I scan the wallet with virustotal, I get 2 false positives. Is there a way to make these go away? Most wallets nowadays don't have any false positives anymore.

I suppose you will be wanting 0.0001 in PMP as well then? 

I thought thats what you asked for...

That link is to the old-new wallet, not the new-new wallet. Which I don't have yet.

Code wise its the same, but graphics-wise and address-wise it will be different.
The major difference is just the base58.h value for pubkey. its going to be 55 and 50 instead of 22 and 9.
You will need to take that into account when creating your script.

Watch your fucking tone. jk were all friends here  
I see where you are coming from and to be honest I partly agree with you. I'm not 100% sure that giveaways are the best method of attracting new community members. Unfortunately this is the M.O. of Premine, this is why we are making a new coin. If I was just going to make an unrelated coin I would do things a lot differently.

Yes I have heard of faircoin, I was there in the thread complaining about how shady the system was designed. You are right, we are not going to distribute PMP like faircoin did. We are actually going to distribute PMP in a FAIR manner, unlike faircoin (failcoin?).

Failcoin allowed anyone to reserve a stake every hour for a few days. Because these reservations were done away from the transparency of BTCtalk, we couldn't be sure who was reserving stake and how many. So some people camped out the website and were able to reserve large amounts of stake, while others received one or two. One member bragged in the forums that he had over 300 stakes. While the majority that were camping out reserving stake every hour had maybe 20-30 max. Most people with actual lives and responsibilities received maybe 2-10. How is that fair?

Worse, because no one could see who was claiming stake it is obvious that it would be easy for the developer to claim large amount of stake, as he and he alone controlled access to the back-end of the server. He could have claimed 20,000 of the total 50,000. and who would know? How easy would it have been to generate thousands of fake addresses? ridiculously easy.

Yes, obviously we are not "able" to distribute PMP like faircoin did, thankfully we actually intend to have a fair and transparent giveaway. Any person who is actually interested in a fair distribution can come up with much fairer and transparent method. Faircoin was a farce. Maybe the dev was a hipster and he meant "fair"coin  

Yes this is EXPERIMENTAL wallet with the A's and 9's.... we are re-rolling it out with the 'p's... I think TMX is just giving you what it technically will be....

I believe TMX uses a bit of sarcasm more than you can detect in a post.... the language he uses is probably not meant to be taken personally... I am a bit like that myself on occasion
