ok, just one more question regarding burning. I have burned 15 coins so far which results in a slow chance of finding a PoB block. But, is every miner pointed to my wallet able to find this block? Or does the wallet itself try to find that PoB block? Sorry if that's a dumb question, I just don't get that yet ^^

I think this coin is some kind of Sunny King experiment.  Peercoin development slowed to a crawl, this coin is sourced from Peercoin instead of the usual sourcing of Novacoin forks.  I wonder when Sunny is going to come out of the closet.

Anyway, the original post needs to be updated with a lot more information.  People have said coin emission is non-linear and that it would be mined over 15 years with only 1 million being released in the first year?  Is this true or not?  Also, what is the stake interest rate?  Minimum stake age?  Max age?  etc.

Slimcoin client fixed for failure while loading the blkindex.dat file.

Update your wallets

Binaries are available here: https://github.com/slimcoin/slicmoin-executable
Source is available here: https://github.com/slimcoin/slimcoin

I updated my Mac wallet with this fix. Since the version number didn't change, the URL is the same: https://www.dropbox.com/s/b5irhas4xqvh2pb/Slimcoin-Qt-0.3.0.0-Mac.zip

what 's the meanning of burnning coin??  burn for what??   have burnt 28 coins ,but get nothing ?why

by burning coins, you are buying a portion of hashing PoB.
why you get nothing is because there are almost 23000 coins burnt already
your 28 coin is mere 0.1%. which means you have about 1 in 1000 chance of finding a block.

Oh crap
I have 80 coins so it is better for me to keep it and not burn

POB?
Sounds interesting.
Is Slim listed on exchange already?
want to buy some.

Some whale is buying them all up to 0.01 each on bter.com

Guess he wants 20% or more hash power
I have 850 coins to burn..

Is it possible to burn coins via slimcoind on remote linux server?

...and then mint with PoB?

EDIT:
Found the answer to the first part of the question:
Code:
 ./slimcoind burncoins   [minconf=1] [comment] [comment-to]

Now, how to mint?  ./slimcoind setgenerate true? How slimcoind would know to use PoB but not PoW? Or would it use both?

Thanks!

so i burned 80 coins, wow 0.4% chance of finding a block..
oh wait, i used two different wallets..

1 wallet burned 20 coins = 0.1% chance
1 wallet burned 60 coins = 0.3% chance

I ain't gonna find anything Sad

People selling are stupid.

Wink high price

Not at all if you take into consideration how much 100 burnt today will be worth in 1 month. People selling are stupid.
