Can't we get KGW update implemented sooner? We're doing roughly 600blocks daily, that means we will hit 1318XX block in 12 days. After that you will implement KGW, and that will take another 20days to take effect? Are we stuck in this multipool rape for another 30 days? That can possibly kill us. I suggest to kick KGW in now, and make KGW, block rewards and times to kick in at let's say 127k block (3-5 days from current 124k block).

Someone is purposefully keeping the price down. They're preparing for a pump?

i think the multipools continue to dump. they are basically the only miners right now since most regular miners have jumped off the network due to the long high difficulty times. once the fork occurs this will stop.

I was missing compiled wallet binary for linux. I prepared one for Debian Wheezy: http://tomasek.cz/stuff/kittehcoin-v0.6.4.1-unk-beta-linux-amd64.tar.bz2

Compilation is easy:

git clone https://github.com/kittehcoin/kittehcoin
qmake
edit Makefile and add -I/usr/include/miniupnpc to INCPATH (default /opt/local/... can't work)
make

and wait.

Thought this was cute haha might be something that could play into the Kittehcoin Concept nicely.

Great stuff, should be added into the marketplace when completed.

Have you looked at what the CATcoin community has been up to lately with the algo/diff simulator app they made to test out different ways to banish their own strip mining demons?  It looks like a pretty impressive effort for a community trying to support a coin that is on life support, not sure if it would apply to MEOW analysis as well.

Link?

I was thinking about multipools today... they are motivated by a few things: Profit and Speed. Low diff + lots of hashrate provide both of these things when a coin is getting some traction. I would argue that the SPEED factor plays in quite heavily - they want to get in and get out, dump and roll on (once the diff is increased due to their hashrate blowing up the algo).

The KGW adjusts the diff to make it harder to speed mine and leave a coin hanging on the re-diff. But what about one other aspect - what if a mined coin needed a "cooling off period" or some such other thing that made them unable to use for X blocks that would translate to hours (or even days) when first mined? Once they "matured" they could be spent as usual, but at first they are unobtainable or unredeemable. I'm guessing even a small delay in "usability" would make the multipools run for the hills. Example: Once you mine a coin, those coins are unusable for 120 blocks. If a multipool did a hit and run (without the KGW to fix) the coin left high and dry would also screw the mined coins because they would be in limbo for 120 blocks (and since the multipool had rolled off, the confirm time would be really long... further screwing their hit and run profits). Patient, devoted miners wouldn't care much, just mine and spend as normal, but the hit and run folks wouldn't touch the coin due to its tardy method of payout.

Does this exist? Is it possible with the current infrastructure (just curious). Even a "cool off" of 30 blocks could mean the multipools ignore the coin as "unminable" within their motives.

Nope. I stopped paying attention to them after the devs did the knee jerk fork back near the start of the year. Seemed doomed (as you mentioned).

Maybe they are still doomed, but that makes the renewed effort to develop tools to methodically tackle those issues all the more impressive.

Someone needs to modify this gif to replace the biscuit with a dogecoin or kittehcoin.  I only wish I had the tools for editing GIFs or I'd try it myself!  It's purrrfect!

Hey MEOW devs.... it's unfortunate that the Twitter name "KittehCoin" is not being used for official info (so many coins do this). I realize you guys probably don't own the account - Is it LoneStars' acount? From a marketing perspective, it would make sense to get control of that account ASAP!

Thinking about it from the point of view of someone who says "hmmm.... what is this kittehcoin?, do they tweet?" If I have to look up KittehCoinTeam to know it is the official source... that is a failed opportunity since lots of folks won't take the time. It's like if Coca-Cola did not have the website Coke.com but rather Cocacolasoftdrinkcompany.com.




He does raise a few good points

Just spoke with ManDrone about this on IRC, the owner of the account is in the process of transferring it to us. We wil update the community once we're running under the new handle Wink still @KittehCoinTeam for now, should be moved over before end of the weekend.


Well played

Does someone know if cryptsy meow deposit works properly now?

I want to transfer some coins from coinedup and do it fast.

Any thoughts?




it works and you will get your coins but not sure how long you might have to wait

Thanks for the info.

I'm sure I won't lose them.

Problem is I would need them in the next 10-15 min after transfer is done.
That's why I was asking. It happened to me more than once that I have lost a wave to buy or sell because my coins were stuck between exchanges.
Don't want this to happen again. Cheesy

10-15 is NOT gonna be possible.
First time I did a test transfer took me 8 hours.
2nd time 24 hours +.. Ended up doing a ticket and it got sorted fast.

Thanks again.

I did the transfer. Am curious now how long it will take.

Did you open a normal ticket, or did you contact someone to solve the problem after it got stuck?(Need all the info in case my coins get stuck) Smiley

It's been 2 hours now and nothing there. When I check the blockchain I see a "not yet redeemed" message.

Hopefully it won't take 24 hours.


Just a normal ticket. Actually was sorted fairly fast
