Topic: [ANN][Datacoin] Datacoin blockchain start announcement (Minor code upd + logo) - page 46. (Read 171862 times)

Hello, we have seen your project Datacoin, and I'd like to inform you
that we are doing something equivalent.
Perhaps we can join our efforts in some way.

First of all, this is the repo of our project:

https://github.com/wetube/bitcloud

You can read first the White Paper, and then "bitcloud.org" which is the
protocol I'm writing.

I must say that, although we are going to a similar end, there are some
fundamental differences:

- We generate money from bandwidth sharing.
- We don't store nothing in the blockchain, just money transactions.
- We have moderators, which is a separate layer, and anyone can become
  one without technical skills, nor having to maintain a node.
- We are node centered, most of the work is done in the nodes which
  means that normal or anonymous users can access from a web browser
  transparently (they don't even need to know they are using
  Bitcloud). Our content is embedable in any webpage.
- We have a full descriptive language similar to SQL for accessing the
  bitcloud from any program in any place, they don't even need to
  download the blockchain.
- We introduce the concept of law, judge and enforcement, which is a
  form of very advanced Proof of Stake.

And probably there are many more differences, we are just scratching the
surface.

What we'd like to know is if you're interested in our project in some
way, perhaps we can join our efforts and make the best data sharing
protocol ever made, and change the world forever.

There is no way a single user or just 2, 5 or even 10 programmers are
going to bring this big project into existence. I think it is time to
go together before we do sub-optimal solutions separately.

We can meet each other in our channels, #bitcloud, #weetube and
#datacoin so we can discuss all of this.

Hi!
Datacoin can run into trouble if someone wants to store big files in it Generally, I have such an idea. Datacoin stores only text info: html pages, css\js for them, small pictures (logos?), magnet links, etc. It also will store info that really needs redundancy. It will be fast storage with its own services. In that case Bitcloud can offer media storage for that - it won't need such redundancy, but it will work in pair with Datacoin. Just imagine: Namecoin as root DNS service, Datacoin as service for storing text info and security keys, for example, and your project as a media storage. It is really some kind of new, free Internet with economical/financial background.

works. thx!

Hey guys. I wrote the nontechnical paper for Bitcloud. Just wanted to pop in to discuss the similarities with our projects because they are somewhat similar. As cryptrol pointed out, this is a brand new protocol that is based on proof of bandwidth, so it's not really an altcoin to Datacoin. The main ideas we've been thinking about when it comes to Bitcloud are a decentralized YouTube alternative and a way to monetize a meshnet in the distant future. Would projects like these be possible with Datacoin? Nodes are paid for sharing bandwidth in Bitcloud, so I am wondering if Datacoin would run into trouble when it came to apps that required large amounts of bandwidth. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

I made service.

Please test. Coins I havent and I can't check.

Yes, I agree, it is "just words".  But I found it interesting because it also links data and cryptocurrencies.

I have read the paper, it has nothing to do with Datacoin, in fact it's a new protocol, not even sure if it will use the standard blockchain as we know it.
IMO it is a very ambitious project (perhaps too ambitious) but at the moment it's just words, there is no code at all (just like MSC?).

The first altcoin of DataCoin! Congratulation to everyone! 

BitCloud.  A somewhat similar idea to Datacoin:

Order placed; now see how long it takes.

Good

Ok it has arrived

Thank you. It is 30 minutes now (1 confirmation) and still not in my account. I'll get a shower and hope it will be in my account after that
When it has arrived, I will complete it to 1 BTC and buy datacoins (will increase the price a lot I think, when I take a look at the order book)

Bitcoin isnt that fast man. Dont worry it will show up eventually. Worry if 1 hour pass Check https://blockchain.info/  for the transaction. It needs at least 1 confirmation. And maybe even cryptsy lags. Dont worry yet.

Well I just send 0.35 BTC from Cryptsy to Bter 18 minutes ago, and it's still not in my account yet 

Well i also indeed afraid of bter but i still use it. So far every DTC i have bought is from Bter. I buy and i put them to my wallet immediately.

We still wait for cryptsy to add DTC. And we have contacted with other exchanges...

Hello guys,

I see a nice future for this coin, and I would like to buy for 1 BTC datacoins.
How can I do this? Bter doesn't seem te be a good way.

Thank you!

muchas gracias!!!! ya lo entiendo, nunca me habia pasado eso. Saludos!!!

You should wait for 3200 confirmations, since 1 confirmation takes 1 minute, it will take 2,22 days to be available.

Spanish Translation : Tienes que esperar 3200 confirmaciones, 1 confirmación tarda un minuto, por tanto tardaran 2,22 días en estar disponibles.

I have 10 datacoin in not available, I think something is wrong, my friend has 0.3 datacoin confirmed. Does anyone help me?
