He's likely talking about comments made by crowtec (sp?) shortly before they dropped out of BURST.

Yeah this. What happened there and why did they drop out of Burst?

Rico, yes please do enlighten us. I know I may have made some mistakes in my comments but I would welcome be thankful of any comments that would correct those mistakes.

It would also be to the benefit of the people who come to the thread. Ty.

Some people say - "It's broken" for low buy

Im sure he did but it was maybe good that he didnt mention anything about Burst if he didnt have anything good to say about it. There were some developers who said that Burst's Proof of Capacity algorithm is broken to the core. Maybe its better to give the PoCC more time to fix the core problems before marketing the project again.

There were people who said the world will end September, 23rd 2017.

Could you please name at least two developers who "said that Burst's Proof of Capacity algorithm is broken to the core"?

I would like to get this out of the way before I point out the - roughly - 50 errors you and your chat pingpong partners were able to spill in the last 5 messages or so.

Why would it be impossible for him to know about BURST prior to that "white paper" of his?

On the other hand, if he DID know about BURST prior to publishing his "white paper" then he's little more than a ripoff.

Those comments slamming Bram Cohen came from the members of the Burst community who got salty because Burst wasnt given any credit for being the first coin to use Proof of Capacity. Thats fair. But what was the reason why he chose to ignore Burst? It would be very impossible for him not to know about it.

Why not? Burst is an open source project, and Bram Cohen is an open source developer who wants to disrupt the established order. He is doing it with Bittorrent right now.

Im sure a peer review of the code from him will be apprecitated by the Burst community and the developers.

He recently released a paper, which seems to be one part of whatever they are working on. Lots of people from Burst were quick to slam it.

Where were they slamming Bram Cohen? I looked for it in Burst's subreddit but I couldnt find it. Maybe theres only a small faction from the Burst community who couldnt accept that theres a better impelentation of Proof of Capacity out there. What about the developers, what did they say?

Look at the comments on this article:

Is Burst still bursting with optimism or has the bubble already burst? Grin

I bought some near the peak prices and I thought it would make the fast climb going to BTC.00001 for an easy 2.5x return. Now I am in the red. Would you buy more if you were in my place or should I leave it and be patient?

I think .00001 is still a little lofty for the short term. However, the updates and plans coming out of the new core team are definitely big positives and pushing things in the right direction. Total supply 2.2B coins and we're at 1.8B now, so mining rewards are becoming less and less. New developments and roadmap are what are going to drive things for Burst. A few months ago, things were pretty bleak on all fronts (not even counting the spam attack), but I think things are definitely turning up now.

For me, I'm a miner and a timid buyer under 250 sats and aggressive buyer under 200.

As a Proof of Capacity miner whats your opinion an Burst's mining algorithm? Is it a viable form of Proof of Work to be a serious competitor to BTC?

I also heard about Bittorrent creator Bram Cohen will start developing his own altcoin using a mining algorithm called Proof of time and space. Theres not much to read about it right now but its also going to use hard drives for mining. Maybe the Burst developers should reach out to him.

I highly doubt he would want to work with anyone in the burst community. He will definitely be looking to make something himself/his team. Better that way too, too much drama here.

Though things have improved a bit the past month. Hopefully they will continue to improve.

PoC works. That's all that really matters. It's just a different way of coming up with a very specific hash to validate a block of records. Instead of going insanely fast and generating hashes as quickly as possible, PoC pre-generates all the hashes on your hard drive and then has to scan through them to see if your hash is the magic hash to lock the block. The PoC algorithm is created in such a way that it can't be done extremely quick (it can take hours to fill a terrabyte), so there's not much of a way to get around the capacity part.. you have to fill the drive and then scan all those TBs of hashes quickly in the ~4 minute block period.. much less energy consuming after the hashes are created.

I really like innovations like that in the mining world. It all becomes an arms race though.. CPU power, hd space, staking, even 'time'.. but at least you get to pick which method suits you more based on your available hardware, electric costs, etc.

i created a online burst wallet and sent 10k coins to it to test. i logged back in the address was different how do i access the address i sent it to

There is a passphrase, which is connected to the address and this opens wallet for this address.
