Allright . Karma at 3 satoshis... what is this about. this is so cheap. i said it will fall to 3 once more but not stay there for over a day. This coin need to have a jump now. it had 47 BTC buy order at 3. lol so cheap. why don't you guys move the buy order up.


we need to start the momentum and get this coins up. Buy now that is still cheap. soon with the block halving it will be harder for people to dump. good luck buying back at 5-6-7 satoshis

No one is going to move their buy order up to 4 when they can safely buy Karma at 3 provided they had been in the queue for long enough to be close to the front.

sure, but 47-37 Btc buy order is a joke.  there is no explanation for those order to stay at that spot if it were not for the mysterious person dumping constantly. This constant coin selling is the cause that it doesn't allow this coin to move up. not normal person.

if all of the sudden who ever selling those coin stop, then the 37 Btc buy order will crumble. because some one that want to buy at 3 can afford to also buy at 4.  When there is no more sellers.

Therefore some serious miner/pool is killing us. there is a high demand of buyers. Even at the constand coind dumping this coin stays at 37 btyc order at 3 satoshis. This is a lot. i have constantly watching the exchange. if we figure out how to minimize this constant dumping this coin will blow up.

When is block halving expected?

0-10,000 blocks => 10,000 +1,000,000 bonus
10,000-25,000 blocks => 10,000 + 750,000 bonus
25,000-50,000 blocks => 10,000 + 500,000 bonus
50,000-100,000 blocks => 10,000 + 250,000 bonus
100,000-200,000 blocks => 10,000 + 100,000 bonus
200,000-300,000 blocks => 10,000 + 25,000 bonus
300,000-400,000 blocks => 10,000 + 10,000 bonus
500,000+ blocks => 10,000 coins

we are at 33k blocks. once it hits 50k. it will be much harder for this to be mined

http://www.baps.org/Spiritual-Living/Hindu-Beliefs/Karma-and-Dharma.aspx

That is why. Dharma is as linked to Karma as a Question is to it's Answer.

And the Dharma wheel logo looks fantastic, the best so far.

Quote
Dharma is well defined as a way of conduct we have to transition into our lives as an outcome of alignment with our Karma. Dharma can be understood as the path rather than the final achievement

I like it....Dharma is the path to follow and Karma is the act itself and the result of the act. ... so to ... Giving and Helping others is the path to follow and KarmaCoin is both the method of action and the reward for good actions.

its quite poetic really...

-1 I like the art, but I really disagree about using Dharma symbol for Karma coin. Dharma != Karma. It is like labeling peace symbol with word joy.

As someone with years of marketing experience working for the biggest ad agency in the world, I would suggest staying away from symbolism like a dharma wheel.

A white elephant outline is neutral, and would work much better (as a brand) than something that means different things to different people (and would cause many others to become indifferent to Karmacoin).

i.e., come up with something new. The elephant is good. Just make it outstanding and emotionally appealing.

The simpler the logo the better. If I was to design it, I would do something completely different. A blue and red logo like the old Pepsi logo but leaning towards a horizontal yin-yang and getting rid of the dots. Also, there's no need to put "Karmacoin" on the logo. (Such is the sign of an amateur.) The text can go next to it, on the right side.

This makes for a familiar symbol but still something new. Think big picture and long term. As in, what symbol would make a 9 year-old in the Kenyan highlands smile when they see it just as well as an adult in Shoreditch?

Nevermind what you like. The question is, what would most of your potential users like?

A good logo could mean the difference between success and failure of a company (or coin). (But again, it's not what you think is good...)

Beautiful points. Thank you. I didn't catch the parallel between a currency or a payment system and karma. Haha Smiley Love it.

Did you mean *not* more religious, or as it is: "Doing GOOD is GOOD" you are actually being more religious than the guy who says "that's Karma dude!" 


I meant.. if a person says " "Doing GOOD is GOOD" that's technically more religious than saying something like "Giving Karma is Good.." because you have the word GOOD there twice which is cognate with the word GOD... so its like having two Gods in one sentence lol..

Deepak Chopra: "What is Karma? Karma simply means action. Every action has consequences. Karma creates the future, but it is also an echo from the past, conditions our soul through memory, desire and imagination."

And here is what urban dictionary says, for kicks: "The Buddhist belief that whatever you do comes back to you, e.g. if you do something good, something good will happen to you, and vice versa."
I disagree with this definition, because it limits the meaning to Buddhist. Does this sound strictly Buddhist: What goes around comes around? I don't think so. I am sure Justin Timberlake doesn't thinks so. Smiley

My love to this coin. Thank you guys for working on it.

...Now, to review the logos.


I agree  the word "Karma" is no more religious than words like Compassion, Kindness, Charity, Good


The Dalai lama pretty much explained Karma in a similar way as Deepak Chopra and Buddhism is either a Philosophy or a religion depending on how you look at it (just like KarmaCoin is either a currency or a payment system depending on how you look at it, how ironic..)

most people who grew up in the 60s knew about Karma, so were the hippies back then all religion freaks? of course not......

Karma is just the sanskrit word for the concept of "Cause and Effect" which is a scientific term.
If you back far enough and its not even an Indian concept originally, it (Sanskrit concept of Karma) predates Jesus, Buddha, Mohammad and most of what we now know today as Hinduism

the irony is of course that the word GOOD is cognate with GOD.

so by saying the Karma Coin motto of  "Doing GOOD is GOOD" you are actually being more religious than the guy who says "that's Karma dude!"

Another variation, what do you think about the ying/yang?

http://i59.tinypic.com/30kbksi.jpg

I think that one is the best one yet. Looks professional and like something i would not be embarrassed to show in a presentation to real investors.   

Good Job

-1 for Yin-Yang. Sorry. :\ Even if it looks good. Yin-Yang != Karma. For a person that even somewhat knows meanings of these words, it is like mismatching flags and names of countries. I do appreciate the effort.

i have a problem with my wallet...

someone knows why?
it is the latest version of wallet.
it is also stuck at block 29001

I had the same problem when my blockchain got corrupted.. you can safely delete the blocks and chain state directories and re-download the blockchain.
its only 105MB at the moment.

in windows your Karma files are located here by default..

C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Karmacoin

make sure you backup your wallet.dat and whatever you do, do not delete wallet.dat.. (all your keys are in there!)

how can i backup my wallet.dat?
and from where i download the blockchain?

just make a copy of it ... and keep it somewhere safe (make sure you encrypt it first though using encrypt wallet in the KarmaCoin Client)

the client (Karmacoin-QT) will download the blockchain automatically when you start it up again...

IMHO it look like logo for infants. I thought after first look it is some seal.

This version?



lol, i guess it's all about perspective. I just thought karma could use a more playful appearance since the idea behind the coin is to do good. I didn't think the current logo conveyed that idea, and a generic letter 'K' would probably have felt too corporate and overdone at this point.

I actually really like this one, despite the fact that it is a bit too cartoony and feminine (no offense, girls). That and colors should be easily fixable. I like it because it looks really nice, has few enought details to be recognisable in small icon (many other suggestions fails in this case), I like how it breaks out boring circle a bit too. It could be tweaked to be a really nice logo.
