My comments / opinions regarding Earthcoin

First, Earthcoin had a well planned launch.  Good graphics and a development team.  There are many more supporters of EAC then haters so this should bode well.

There were / are some problems with mining pools... But I do not believe this is or should be Earthcoin developers responsibility to fix.  Certainly they should lend their technical expertise and even offer bounties but that's it.  Newsflash... Pool owners operate pools for profit, they are a business, and as such are responsible to make sure their own pools work properly.

2% Premine... this has probably been the biggest source of controversy, but any successful crypto coin must be run like a business... and business require money to operate.   If EAC is to rise above the alt currency fray and achieve its goal of being as widely accepted, or more so, then bitcoin then it needs organized development, marketing, and leadership.  Personally, I hope they exchange .5% of what they premined on the exchanges when they open up... that capital will help grow and advertise their brand.  It would also put enough EAC into circulation that it can be traded.  The remaining 1.5% in my opinion should be split into .5% for bounties and giveaways and the remaining 1% the devs will hold onto for the long haul...

Yes... anyone can start up a alt coin... but only a coin that has both an accepted value and faith in its longevity will stand a chance at widespread acceptance as a currency.

At this stage of Earthcoin's life it is up to us, the community as well as the developers to nurture and grow this coin... that is if you believe in the concept.

I sold some of my Earthcoin that I mined on day 1... I did this to hedge my bets that this may fail... now I'm having 2nd thoughts.  I also continue to sell Earthcoin on Ebay... believe it or not I've had to raise my prices due to demand...

There will always be haters for various reasons but I question the motives of most of them.

Just my 0.2EAC

I've been mining here for 2 days now with no issues at all. If anyone is looking for a solid pool this one's pretty good so far!

I'm definitely digging EarthCoin, can't wait until it starts getting more attention and exchange listings.

70 MH/s and 400% average completion (this means 4x the time it should take to mine a block)

http://eac.hackshardgaming.net/ 130 MH/s and 110% average completion (this means it takes how long it should to mine a block)

Not exactly the best pool...lol

Same here, not sure what the problem is

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, the fix for this exact issue is here:

Make sure you have also downloaded the latest code from GIT in the OP.

Just wondering if the translation can also be made for the entire site as opposed to just the announcement page. You know, in case a language has already been claimed for the thread.

^ Not sure if the dev's have responded (sometimes dev's also log into this account to answer stuff in PM that I can't/tech/pool stuff etc), however yes, please work together it's better having more than one person to troubleshoot both now and throughout. You'll get bounty's respectively Smiley.

I can also provide the server hardware

I suspect a proper server would fix the issue in and of itself. I haven't looked into the details of the amazon micro servers, but I suspect its the culprit.

I can setup a test block chain explorer locally to confirm if its an issue with the server/interperter or something else.

I have no where to host or I would have set it up myself.

It will be a few hours before I can get it setup so I'll check back first to make sure you haven't already fixed it.

Hi Jim,
I have messaged developers re: setting this up.
No point both of us doing it separately so happy to put our efforts together. Drop me a pm, I can also provide the server hardware.


Hi, it's Jim again for the block explorer.

I'm enlisting additional help (from the dev of florinexchange.com). I think the problematic transaction is this massive one:

http://54.203.207.156/earthcoin/index.php?transaction=aba429f6d7d4c9d437aafc3d57755830c271e6fdcb9d5145a4236c4728f579d4

That's causing Abe to overflow for some reason. Need to learn more python...

Doing the initialization of Abe, I get

Code:
(130 blocks are fine...)

This is complete speculation but I'm guessing the issues stems from the amazon service. I'm guessing the  long int (in C) is not 64 bit long on your system, which is what python is expecting and is what is causing the overflow.  

Of course, like I say, this is utter speculation after looking at the code for 30 seconds.

It does seem likely though. Where its only a large trascaction that has the problem, the smaller transactions likely don't go over the 32 limit (again speculation)

*I'm not sure what you wrote - but - the comments of that article are DEFINITELY censored, already seeing a bunch of them erased - HAHAHAHAHAAHA!

Happy Holidays in turn and thanks for whatever you wrote that may or may not be gone now.



Earthcoin team, we really appreacie your great work as a team. Your great work is recognized, that's why so many people are mining this coin, that's why the coin's network hashrate is constantly above 1Gh/s, and even went to 1.7Gh/s yesterday. Keep up the great work, and ignore the haters messages. They represent those who have another coin? or missed the boat? or whatever I don't care.


Very much appreciated, thank you kindly.

Are you kidding?

Which support?

In this coin there are issues with mining, but support from devs is zero. Only pool owners are helping.

And again. For what is it premined if support is zero?

And where is that transparency account with premined coins?

Websites, graphics, dealing with 100's of PM's, getting wallets compiled, doing giveaways/research before giving, promo's, dealing with xx promoters in various platforms, dealing with pool owners like crazy in PM, trying to get patches out, taking care of bountied tasks, responding here as often as we can, closing big marketing deals, looking for merchants, getting device apps done, continuous monitoring, no sleep, getting everyone to work together, calming down critics, getting investors, talking to exchanges, and still trying to smile while getting crapped on 247 - is not 'doing zero'. I've addressed your other points in previous posts with great detail.

Thank you.
