PPC is under threat. Vote now.

Argue that it means nothing because it doesn't affect the fundamentals or the currency if you must, but go there and vote anyway, because whether you like it or not, this matters to the popular perception of PPC.

People who say it isn't a big player are just noobs who compare cryptocurrencies by the price. They don't know it is market capitalisation which measures the size of the coin. Novacoin is almost the same price as Litecoin but it's market cap is tiny in comparison to most other coins... hence why you shouldn't regard Novacoin as a big player.

Newest designs...(the poker chip one is being redone at the moment because, well...it looked like a poker chip).  And guys, if you can't tell, they are actually using your feedback that I pass on to them, please keep it coming.

Sunny,
Are there any plans to add some more features to the stake generation? I think it would be nice to have a balance shown for stake eligible coins.
Basically on the client overview page:

Balance: 1000
Stake Eligible: 500
Stake Eligible Coin age: 60
Average Coin age in wallet: 25

Not that all of those fields are required, just brainstorming.

Maybe there is a way to look that information up that I'm not aware, but POS is the one mystery that very few really understand, at least it appears so to me with all of the questions I see and that I've asked.

Maybe with more information available in the client PPC's acceptance will accelerate as more people will understand how POS works.

Also instead of calling it "Stake" is there any reason not to call it "Interest (POS)" or something along those lines? Joe the plumber wouldn't know what stake was, but interest he would be all over.

I'm not a fan of these new designs, as they seem far removed from the Eco aspect of PPCoin.

This is still my favourite: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2000979

Thanks.
For some reason I was under the impression stake showed potential interest/stake that I hadn't yet solved a block for.

That's normal as it's a random process to generate stake, past 30 days you start with very small probability, reaching full probability at 90 days with respect to your coin amount.

sorry to derail the hard coinage discussion.

I have a question about proof of stake.  I now have some coin in my wallet with at least 30 coindays.  My wallet is 'currently unlocked for block minting only'

Do I have to do anything else?
I do not see any balance with Stake:  0

I have at least 10 solo blocks that are more then 30 days old. help

Jim


I'm interested also in this answer as I've got a couple transactions that I believe are 31 and 33 days, but stake also shows 0.
Thanks.

Wow, that's my favorite one so far. I also like the double meaning of nature in the slogan. One question though, why are the edges of the coin jagged looking?

Expanding on this, I think it looks like a leaf crossed with the AT&T logo, only green instead of blue.

I like third row, left the best, also the O in the logo is nice, like the other green coin logos
the only issue I have with it is that it looks a lot like a poker chip, at least it is one of the more expensive gambling chips, actually I don't really know, but I thought the green chips had a value of 1000, could be wrong about that though
The green ones are usually 25... 1000 are usually the yellow ones. Smiley
It's giving a hint that there's a reeded edge to the coin , not necessary of course
Keep the ridged edge on the coin... looks more... coiny...

^^ I like that last one the best of yours.  The slogan is good too, very good.

I received another.

Well, I'm only having the designers work on an actual 'coin' design, I'm assuming that the 'ppcoin accepted here' could be done by somebody after the fact...this is more of a branding idea.  I think the idea of 'shiny' lends itself to metal, the association most people have with a coin, or currency in general...also there is a 'newness' to it.

Yes. Excellent. The others also.
Nearly all of them are coming along very and extremly shiny ...

I am missing something like "ppcoin accepted here". Something to establish the brand. Something that people recognize instantly on merchant sites.

Maybe it's a good idea to publish some of them on ppcoin.org. Then time will tell which ones are most liked and used.

Top row in the middle looks best, though a little bit too much plastic feel. Maybe some kind of jade texture might give it more "precious" feel as well as maintain green color.

I totally agree...here are some more also. Sunny, would really love some of your feedback on this...even if you hate them all Wink
