Topic: [ANN] [XMG] MAGI | CPU mining | mPoW | mPoS | [MagiPay] - page 277. (Read 2375622 times)

Hi guys, ive heard someone said that we will have hardfork this month, is it real? I dont see it in our roadmap this month, but at August 2017, lol.
Maybe because of that info, xmg price rise alot  .

Still, good to have a bit of volume again - and always nice to see an ATH in terms of market cap - would be nicer if it stayed there though =)

It just happens once every few days:

Intresting rise in price today - and Magi hits another ATH - this time $3.3M up from $180k in 12 months =)

good to hear - just a note (and sorry for being late to the party) - if you download the zip file from the site there is a sample conf file from Joe with some optimal settings in there.

Edit2: I went below the initial text and just typed posii=1, it that how it is done? Thank you.

Edit3: Got it fixed. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

The problem is I can't find the conf file, it's not in the folder it's supposed to be in. Do I need to shut down the miner for it to show up, or turn on hidden files? Thank you.

Edit: Nevermind I found it, now have to figure out how to edit it. Thank you.

Very Good question - we could do with a few slogans (if we don't have any already)

Right off hand, I am not sure. There might be existing services that might work if users somehow standardized the method. I know with online retailers like eBay, you need to be selling a physical item before it is allowed. So you could sell some thing with how ever much XMG attached, but that doesn't protect you from scammers. Im not sure what would be the best way to have ease of use, cutting out the middle man, and providing buyer/seller security. Most existing product selling sites would work, but they don't have that built in protection, plus many don't even allow crypto in the first place. Basically, you need a site like coinbase where the purchase goes directly to the owner of the coins, not the exchange. I just don't think XMG has the following to make something like that effective, plus if the people doing the matching of buyer to seller, without a fee, how do they keep everything running ... it's all problematic.

Too bad there wasn't some online escrow service people could use, then just a forum like this where buyers and sellers posted their needs would be all that is needed. Then when a deal is made, the buyer sends to escrow USD, and the seller sends XMG. Once XMG is received, the buyer releases the money to the seller. Im sure there are tons of ways to game that system as well, but maybe someone else can look at it and turn it into some feasible.

Hello, do we have official social media hashtags to use in promotion?

Right. Any ideas or examples?

I wish there was a way to buy XMG directly from other XMG miners/supporters and cut out all the middle men/bittrex/etc. If only for the time being, which would help make it more profitable for buyers. Right now, 4-4.50 of each 20.00 investment goes to Bittrex/Coinbase in fees.

Do you have PoS set to active in the conf file?

  I have been trying to stake for a few days now with no luck. I have sent coins back and forth to myself a few times. Yes some of my coins are old but I have sent over 200 back and forth. Please help?

Here is the debug log of my last attempt few minutes ago to launch the latest m wallet.

=================================

Looks like there is a Read Error, but I don't know why. I can easily access the folders and files via command line, as well as, Windows Explorer. Nor it is a hidden path (just in case, if hidden path is a problem).
I have also tried copying a new fresh 1.4.4.1 and launching the exe, but it just fails.

Please help me out, I am missing out on staking (though a tiny bit).

Eh I almost have 13 coins myself, haven't tried that hard.
my one setup shows that I could get about 28ish coins a day but that could be wrong.

Haha no worries i understand what you mean. Joe can add me also thats no problem.

Thats strange. Are you sure no antivirus programm is blocking the .exe file?

I tried redownloading the 1.4.4.1 for Windows. Copied and Pasted the exe at that same folder where the shortcut targets to, already. No help.

I already asked Joe to make me a mod - but always think its good to get a few more people involved - don't want to be a single point of failure =)
