So why is your target only $1? It should be $10/SPR, which is just about enough for MrSpread to get a wife.

It's the first step, the bare minimum that's needed to self-sustain the project, atleast for me. Wink

For $10/SPR I will find a way to transfer MrSpread's mind into the Spreadcoin-Network... so he can live forever.
His hamster life is already half over (max 2-3 years they say), and he's now 1.5 years old. Poor little fucker! Cry

The BIPs will be useful. I know SDC implemented those a while back - look at them now - up to 80 cents. I wish I hadn't sold my 26K coins - I would have been able to buy far more SPR. :/

We best be getting price up to $10 soon then! Anyone who doesn't push price up / sells below $10 dollars is a hamster killer Cry

Georgem, what's going on over the next 3 months? You said there would be an interim period before $1 was reached lol. You have to work on other projects?

Looks like Spreadcoin has existed since 1435 (Received 581 y ago). Maybe Georgem is some sort of immortal being brought us here to save us from centralization. Wink

That's partially right, although I'm not an immortal, see:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1435

I king of sweden was thrown into the future by a sudden temporal vortex.

But seriously, I just didn't correctly consider "years" in the code, lol:
https://github.com/spreadcoin/spreadcoin/blob/master/src/qt/guiheader.cpp#L376

I will fix it later today.

Maybe I didn't think this project will last "years". But now I'm so convinced, I will consider decades and centuries in the code. Not yet millenia... though...

My user interface is pretty messed up (probably because I have a 4k monitor, DPI settings ruin it)
Is this fixable?

Thanks for letting me know, that's pretty messed up. Didn't know that could happen.

What system are you using?
And is it possible that you temporarily change the Resolution/DPI settings back to something normal, to see if the wallets goes back to looking normal?

Hey, I really appreciate that. I can't really think of anything, though. Just keep doing what you're doing! Cool

I had asked a while back if you were going to do an HD wallet, and it sounds like you are implementing that BIP. BIP 32?

If I can donate more I will. However, you can be sure of about that same amount/month for the next few months. Ideally until SNs are released. Then I think that $1+ per SPR will be very achievable. Wink

Yes, I am implementing...

BIP32 (Hierarchical Deterministic Wallets)

BIP39 (Mnemonic code for generating deterministic keys)

BIP44 (Multi-Account Hierarchy for Deterministic Wallets)

In more detail, BIP32 gives the basic functionality of a deterministic wallet.
BIP39 introduces a method with which you can memorize the 256 bit master seed by using words from a wordlist of 2048 words, see here for the english wordlist.
You can adequately represent a 256 bit key by using 24 words from this list, since 2048^24 is a slightly higher number than 2^256.
Using such wordlists is the prefered method of making a backup of a HD wallet. TREZOR uses this too. Those 24 words are the secret with which you can recreate all the billions of deterministic addresses that are derived from a master seed. So, keep them secret... keep them safe!

And finally BIP44 explains a method with which you can implement "accounts" on a single such master seed, so that you can forexample use separate accounts for separate altcoins with just this one master seed.

Pretty awesome stuff.

0.2 BTC on the way Georgem! Wink

If I had 20 guys like you who donate in this predictable regular fashion,
I could easily ride out this interim period of the next 3 months (or so) until SPR reaches a price level of near 1$ or more,

Suppose that happens (20 ppl donating for 3 months), what would the end result be after 3 months?

I'm open to it if I know what the effort is for Grin

DASH reached $100m and it's trying to compete with Bitcoin. I guess donations help get Serivcenodes out sooner so we can beat the $100m target.

Agreed, Georgem has sort of said the target at which point the development would be hyper-sustainable is $1 - and that's only a ~7 million dollar market cap.

As has been for a while, Service Nodes are priority no. 1 in the long term. Any donations that enable Georgem to spend more time on coding only expedite their release and then, very likely, a large increase in price.

It's sort of a snowball effect, really. More development -> price increase -> more development & developers -> price increase etc.

Currently we're at the very beginning of that flow chart and it really reads:

Donations / other funding mechanisms -> expedited development/ releases -> price increase -> full time Georgem wizardry & more devs -> construction of rocket ship launch platform -> first hamster on the moon. Tongue

One can dream, one can dream

Thanks again.

BTW, since you made a substantial donation again, feel free to input your wishes and desires regarding the new wallet.
Is there a feature you always wanted a wallet to have? Or not?
Tell me about it, and I might just have a solution.

Let me know.

you guys really think it will go that high?

I would like to believe that but that's not an overnight event.

I would assume that's only possible if Service Nodes getting released, not?

Either way, the wallet as posted earlier would be pretty cool also!

The bitcoin halving saw the price of bitcoin go from $200 to $600.

That was no accident. The Bitcoin whales were out protecting their investment.

Supporting full nodes and encouraging a mechanism to pay people to run full Bitcoin nodes will fall under the same category of protecting their investment.

You can expect a huge SPR price party when we're ready to support the mother ship.

Like rhinomonkey said, the headlines will write themselves.

Coins101 and I are both relatively confident in a large uptick in price. Service Nodes will likely be a big market moving event. What I think will really push the price though is the Proof of Bitcoin Node development. Once Spreadcoin starts adding legitimate value to the Bitcoin ecosystem through the addition of full nodes we should definitely see huge interest. Just think about the news headlines:

- "Spreadcoin Adds 4000 Full BTC Nodes to the Network"
- "Spreadcoin Pays Users $50 Per Month to Run a Full BTC Node"

etc. etc.

This wallet may not be a huge market moving event (even though that Blockexplorer is damn cool), but I'm willing to say we are very, very undervalued, currently. We literally have a 200K market cap... Roll Eyes

Edit: Forgot to mention that when people start putting hoards of coins into the nodes, a lot of coins will be taken off the market.

A full bitcoin node incentives mechanism that supports the Bitcoin price? Those Bitcoin whales will have a field day pushing up the SPR price above $100m

You're not kidding, mate. I don't even think whales will be necessary. There is only 206 bitcoin worth of SPR up for sale - all the way up to parity with BTC. Wink

Someone market buy please?

HOORAH!

As predicted Georgem has come out with an update!

However, it was not the copy and paste fiesta we craved. Rather it was based on Georgem's second best skill. Photoshop. He has successfully created a photoshop image of what the wallet would look like if he only had the source material to copy and paste it into existence.

The lack of substantive github updates or any demonstration of real coding ability should be a sign that Georgem is the most competent copy and paste dev around.

Coins says poo poo to the doubters and yet their fears of Georgem not knowing how to copy and paste haven't been assuaged.

STAY TUNED Cool

You have to admit, that's some pretty shit hot Photoshop. Lol

He even remembered to add the Berkeley DB reference in the spr daemon.
