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

A gentle fyi, this is not dharma symbol. It was used by The DHARMA (Department of Heuristics And Research on Material Applications) Initiative, which was "a scientific research project that had a large presence on the Island between the 1970s and the early 1990s. The project is represented by variations of an octagonal logo, a variation of the Ba Gua, which comes from Taoist mysticism, that appear on most of its products and facilities."

I like this one the best as well.

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!"

I have studied the  meaning of karma and dharma on my own, not at a university. I won't go into dharma here because it is irrelevant to this coin. In my view, the world karma is not strictly religious and it has multiple meanings depending on who is using it. It is also evolving in time as the time itself is evolving, and it is simple! Here is what Deepak Chopra says about the meaning of karma. I chose his definition because he puts is so clearly, and because he is one of the greatest spiritual/life philosophers of  this century belonging to multiple cultures and always considering science in his work. I can't think of a better source to define the meaning of karma. 

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.

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

...Now, to review the logos.

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!)

it is updated

update it

i have a problem with my wallet...
http://up404.siz.co.il/up3/5jzney1mn0im.png
someone knows why?
it is the latest version of wallet.
it is also stuck at block 29001

I am not moving from. This coin I like more than DOGE, with which I started my first steps in crypto universe.

Maybe, but still if they waited 1 hour until now they could've sold at 4 satoshi already

Love it!

You people crack me up. Losing faith in a coin that is not even a month old is like losing faith in a baby because you don't think it will grow up to be a doctor. This isn't a get rich quick scam, anything in this world takes time to develop,market and mature. If you cant wait and remain positive, then maybe you should find a better coin that better suits your investment personality. It is a gift that this coin has not blown up over night, it is giving you the chance to stack up a few piles before it shoots up in value and diff making it that much harder to mine/ buy by the truck load. Like the saying goes "good things come to those who wait and if you can' t stand the heat get the hell out of the kitchen".

Thanks for insight! I still keep my coins, which I bought at 6 sat.

someone who needs to pay their power bill maybe?

These dumps at 3 make no sense. Who sells at 3 satoshi while there are hardly any sell orders at 4 satoshi and so much buy orders at 3.

to that all I can say is that Rome wasn't built in a day.
if you look at this thread.. it isn't filled with people scrambling to mine the coin or calculate profitability (like most pump and dump coins are)
instead people are talking about how they can improve things (e.g. logos, websites etc)
This is always a good sign that a healthy ecosystem is starting to form.

sure some early adopters haven't got the message and are dumping the coin for some quick profit.. but in the long run that is their loss.
they will hopefully move on to the next pump and dump coin and leave the real talent and believers behind.
for any coin to be able to survive and prosper it needs real people and real innovation. This is because the value of the coin comes from its utility not its minability.

I think we will see real innovation begin to form when people decide they want to settle in and become part of the KarmaCoin community.
I've seen a few people begin to pitch their tents... I've pitched mine.. and so the process will continue on and on until we have reached critical mass.

So feel free to stay or go... but if you do choose to leave.. don't forget to spread some Karma on your way out...

There have been someone dumping at 3~4 for days.
As I see,the cost of mining is much higher than 3 or 4.
But the hashrate  are 2+G all the time.

How can this happen?People love this coin!
When the weisite complete,it will go up.

I believe most everyone is waiting for the new website, which should act as a central hub of "doing good" for Karmacoin.

This should be finished shortly, I believe.
