I don't think that any abbreviation that needs explaining...let alone a latin translation is going to work well in crypto.  Most people in crypto are not experienced traders...the last thing we want is someone looking for WC on a market and can't find it.  BitCoin or maybe Litecoin could get away with something like that, but not WhiteCoin. 



You have a valid point. And as i said.... makes sense to me Tongue . That doesn't mean that everyone has to agree. I'm open to whatever the name will be, and frankly i don't really give a flying butterfly about the name. I want the coin Cheesy i want its functions, i want it all baby !

Update on mintpal:
They do not answer on questions, send me my coins or make an announcement that they work on the problem.
So I ask some people on twitter who have the same problem to join me and make a complain to the police in London. They have a deadline till sunday after that I will go there with the user data from the other people, witch are to far away, and denounce Moohla Ldt. as a scam company.
Do you lose your coin ? I just withdraw all my coin

On another note, I think we need to re-address the coins cap.

When the coin was released there was to be a 330 Million coin cap, 300M to be distributed by mining and 30M to be distributed through staking.

I have currently sent a few feelers out to confirm that the coin still has there parameters.

The issue as far as I see it is that 30M coins distributed through staking only gives the coin a 5 year growth period (slightly less if all coins were staked and the interest was compounded)

I think we need to look at the coin having more like a 20 year growth period, keep the staking at 2% per annum but raise the ceiling to something closer to 420M

3. Reduce Confirmation Times

WCF Technical team has reviewed how best to implement the proposed reduced confirmation times for staking, currently confirmation times for staking coins is at approx. 340 confirmations.  As many of the community has already voiced its opinion on reducing these times, the WCF will utilize the bounty collected at WUET4WgYwz4HLx54faKYyRWMNbfa6K5gjj with a balance of 367,196 WC, to modify the code so that staking coins will only require 30 confirmations.  What this will accomplish is speeding up our staking times making it over 10X faster than it is today!  The only “downfall” which doesn’t present much risk is that Whitecoin will require a fork which means that all exchanges, block explorers, partners and wallets will have a mandatory update.  Prior to any release, we would ensure that our partners (exchanges, Shair etc.) have all been coordinated for this fork, to minimize any down time for services that are dependent upon Whitecoin.
 
As we have a standing bounty value of 367,196 WC, therefore we are prepared to begin development (with payment to WC Development Team upon successful deployment of code into production), next week where we will be providing updates to the community as the development progresses through its various development stages.


Just wanting to raise this and make some clarifications.

My understanding of Reduced confirmations times was that we speed up the blockchain, increasing the number of blocks per minute the effect of doing this would decrease staking times but also have the added effect of decreasing all transaction confirmation times.

For example currently theres a block every 90 seconds, if this went down to 30 or 15 seconds we would make staking times 1/3 - 1/6 respectively and would also mean that any standard transaction would be confirmed in 2 - 1 minutes instead of the current 6 minute confirmation.

Is that what others expect from the Reduced confirmations project?

BUMP!

On the name front i'd go for the XWC option.

Sticking with something we already have and just altering it to be compliant seems the simplest way to do things

I think XAL is by far the sexiest sounding abbreviation.
And also the resemblance in name with XAU and XAG for gold and silver gives an easy market memorability for the experienced trader. I've been  trading  forex for little over 6 years now and XAL just makes sense to me.
Just my 0.2 WC/XAL worth Cheesy

XAL? Really... you might as well name it any random combination of letters at that point. Try WIC, WHI, WCO, etc. Keep the main identifying factor in the abbreviation.

i like it too Grin

also has alphabetical listing advantage over XWC/XWT/XWH - top of the list instead of the bottom

I like XAL too.  May need a group of volunteers to notify all crypto sites, which I don't see as a problem

To check whitecoin running on the exchange (mintpal v2) they have made a summary page with the daemon statistics: http://130.211.52.253/

Wow publicly advertising the number of connections is stupid

yes it is online now and i miss more then 200k Whitecoins!

Please let them know and keep us updated,  haven't heard of any other WC issues yet

I opened a ticked asap yesterday after i saw it. The only thing that happend is that a customer service agent send this problem to the migration team, but it looks like they are on holliday or something like this. I do not get any respons from there. In my eyes Mintpal is now a scam site.

Im also not happy what happend to mintpal - or - what they did to it, but i have to say - patience. I think theyre trying to make it works. Patience.

My coins are fine on Mintpal but I prefer how it looked before
