Topic: [ANN] [TOR] Torcoin - X11 PoW - Tor Integrated Crypto - Torcoin.org - page 97. (Read 125364 times)

As for wallet features and such, pretty much anything can be done.

What do you guys want to see for TorCoin in the future?

In addition to getting listed on exchanges, the main thing I want to see is an ecosystem developed around TorCoin, which is especially a well-suited coin for anyone needing a coin for privacy ...

All good questions!

Some answers:

1. MAC WALLET > I am willing to bounty 2000 Torcoin for a MAC wallet, or pay in BTC

2. ANDROID and IOS WALLET > Same as above, 2000 TorCoin bounty or pay in BTC

3. BOUNTIES > How does the community feel about bounties?!  I am willing to put up plenty of bounties for TorCoin development, but I'm worried that putting too much TorCoin into the open market through bounties would crash the price. What do you guys think? 

4. COINMARKETCAP > As it states on the TorCoin site, there was an older Torcoin issued in 2014 but it was incomplete, buggy, and part of some Yale University CS project that failed.  The coin never did anything and was unsupported.  I contacted these Yale guys and got no reply before launching the new TorCoin.  The new TorCoin does not use the old TorCoin code at all. It is a completely new and different coin.  I have been in contact with CoinMarketCap to get them to de-list the old TorCoin and list the new one. 

5. I agree with you we need Chinese translations. I will be working on it over next couple weeks

6. Advertising > There will be advertising for TorCoin over next couple of weeks. The coin is brand new and I have been busy with a million other projects, so haven't gotten around to ads for TorCoin yet, but it is indeed on the list!

7. We are in process of getting listed on YoBit and hopefully on Bittrex soon, and there is a new ShapeShift style exchange coming online soon that says they will also list it.

I welcome all questions, fire away.  Good to take a hard look at any new coin!

A BETTER PLACE than BitcoinTalk for discussion is our TorCoin reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/TheTorCoin/

False positive, its not infected, check the virustotal scan. If you are in doubt, compile it yourself


Yea someone with some good sense This coin is made by me, except I have a lot of backing this time around by my partner, before when I had made all those coins, they were my personal projects, I wasen't funded by anyone. Now I am funded, so I have a whole lot of reasons to stick around with Torcoin Yea most of my coins would hit Bittrex bare minimum and then a few are still on Poloniex to this day like [DRM] Dreamcoin, a couple coins hit Mintpal back in the day before they were shut down.


Wasen't calling you a troll friend, was calling out the trademark guy. Sorry about quoting you, I can see why you thought that

Yea that is the past, almost 4 years ago lol. The way I see it, Im not proud of the way I acted, but I pushed the crypto community further and created a lot of competition in the altcoin industry, a lot of coins back then would fail and keel over. Even to this day, I see plenty of coins still using my codebase.

Torcoin-qt is infected according to my anti-virus: Win32:Malware-gen

I take it, it's now official that this coin is made by klock. What a nice day to be alive and be part of this coin's success, this one has a nice chance to get listed on larger western exchanges like poloniex and bittrex, AGAIN. If I'm not mistaken poloniex did list some of his coins a few years ago. Some of them popped up and were close to surpassing bitcoin.

Watch what you are saying here..
When you have different opinion and start realizing some facts, you will be called troll..If facts against you are true?
 How we can call you then?  
This guy presenting some facts, and if all this is true how we can trust someone who already abandoned his projects?

So what other exchanges has TORcoin applied to be listed? Yobit, Bittrex (Twitter retweet, is in OP), and I do believe my partner has been trying to get in contact with Poloniex
What advertisements are coming up shortly? I do believe quite a few, The OP started a new Reddit subreddit for us at /r/thetorcoin
Are there any upcoming new features being added to the wallet? Feature wise, currently I would say no as we already have really every feature you will ever need in a crypto, however, I am open to suggestions and improving the wallet such as upgrading to QT 5 is in my plans
What bounties are left? I haven't had the time yet to come up with these, feel free to suggest some

macOS Wallet is coming, I have my MBP mostly setup to compile on, I can work on getting this out tomorrow or Tuesday, unless someone beats me to it.

Yes all the included Torcoin features should ideally be available in the Android/iOS apps

Coinmarketcap hasen't been updated yet, we have contacted them several times me and my partner, still waiting to hear back, they should update that page to reflect the new Torcoin soon enough

Yes the OP is more than capable of driving plenty of traffic to Torcoin, he stated to me last we spoke that he plans on doing a nice marketing campaign tomorrow

Hope this helps!

Wow, the 2nd. torcoin!
It may worth a bit of support and faith, but I must think about it...

now this looks like a nice scam to me LOL

What bounties are left?

Some hard questions for a coin new but this might encourage people to take another look knowing a roadmap. The features the coin already makes it stand out from the others.

The TorCoin, you have mentioned that the audience here on bitcointalk is small compared to other platforms or a target such as the Chinese. Is there a way TorCoin can reach out to these communities. I agree completely that this is a small platform and there are prominent markets that need to be looked into.

Are there people here who can help TorCoin with this? Translations are great, but to put them on Weibo or the like. I know the Chinese have platforms we have not heard of and millions of people use them.

The Russian market, Middle East and anyone looking for anonymity. Could the msging service be used on the smartphone when the Android/IOS app is made. Has anyone showed an interest dev and msg you?

Is there a MAC wallet coming? I personally like to use MAC for my crypto storage, altho I do also use Windows.

Why does coinmarketcap.com show a history longer than the coin? Do they have it mixed up with the old TorCoin that died?

Thanks.... 

CAN SOMEONE POST A FULL TUTORIAL FOR MINING THIS COIN
APPARENTLY MY RX480 ISN'T FOUND
[14:10:39] Started sgminer 5.6.0-nicehash-48

[14:10:40] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
[14:10:40] All devices disabled, cannot mine!

Thank-you for pointing this out.

Im pleased you are straight up about your past as I have been aware of your previous business in crypto and was a but dubious about TOR coin. The fact you were honest immediately and the past is the past. It wouldn't matter if you were the dev or been employed by the dev it shows you were not trying to hide anything.

This coin isn't a shit coin so its potential is high and high profit in the future. With all coins - reputation, exposure to the public thus volume is important.

Wherever we go there will be FUD. Just keep up the work and updates please.

I tried SG miner and i don't have sgminer.exe
I tried cc miner and my system doesn't support cuda 6.1

No this project is not dead its very much alive and barely a week old

You can mine Torcoin with any of the available mining pools and a GPU or CPU miner with X11 hashing algo.

So is this project dead?

how do I mine TORCOIN?

He moved them into cold storage wallets, if you check the block explorer further then you would see that, they are sitting neatly untouched.

This is a zero balance, the coins already moved.

Thanks for clearing that up for everyone! I would like to reiterate that I will be using my TOR for promotional/signature campaigns and potentially some bounties. I will be entirely transparent with what I decide to do, I will also ask for community approval before proceeding with any decisions.

Also if anyone has questions relating to mining TOR or about Torcoin itself or anything technical, send me a message, I'm happy to help!

There are some significant differences between the previous coins Carsen created and TorCoin.

For example >>

1. TorCoin is a HOT name

2. TorCoin is not a clone of some other coin; it has interesting new features such as full integration with the TOR network, stealth addresses and anonymous peer-to-peer messaging - these features set it apart from almost all other coins

3. I am not Carsen. 

4. I have no intention whatsoever of dumping TorCoin no matter what happens to the price. I already have plenty of money.  If you knew who I was, you might not like me very much, but you would know that I am already plenty rich :-)  I don't need to dump coins to make money.  I'm in this for the long haul.

5. Over the next couple of weeks, you will see quite a bit of advertising related to TorCoin. This advertising is obviously expensive, and it represents a significant departure from any of Carsen's previous projects. 

6. Carsen is a good coin developer, and that's why I hired him.  He does have a beneficial stake in the coin at around 200,000 coins.  I can't control what he does with those coins, but my share of 1 million is already in cold storage and not going on the open market, ever.

7. Bitcointalk will represent only a very, very small market of this coin.  Most serious bitcoiners and altcoin investors (READ: the Chinese, etc) are not on Bitcointalk.  I personally could care less about the traffic from this forum, as it is mostly penny-ante investors.
