So. - I like the DGW3 change. I'm ok with the reward change. But....If the goal was partially to slow the rate of inflation(??) I would have thought that it would have been better to not change the block reward directly, but to instead change the halving so the first few happen sooner, and each happening a little further out than the last...

But....my main interest at this time is to see stable block times with "normal" luck variance.

I'd like to see a commitment to a date, or a block number, or a sustained (30day?) min network hashrate, to implement merged mining.

On another note, I haven't looked into much, but I'm wondering how hard it would be to modify electrum to run maza? There's versions for myriad and litecoin as well as bitcoin. We would be down to run a couple electrum servers to make this happen.

Ok, so I have a small timetable here.  I am planning on performing the hard fork at block 100000, which should occur on July 2nd.

With this fork I currently have it set to change difficulty adjustments to DGW3 which will readjust the diff every block which should allow for smoother block times. I have also lowered the block reward from 5000 MZC to 1000 MZC per block and modified the block halving to 950000 blocks, so the blocks won't halve for approx 3.5 years.  This puts us at 1.45 billion coins after 4 years and 2.34 Billion after 18 years.  This means MZC created each year for the first 3.5 years after the fork will be around 237.5 Million a year.

To sum up:
After block 100,000
DGW3 Diff recalc every block
1000 MZC reward per block
950,000 block halving intervals


We still have some time before this goes into affect and I will push the code and get the wallets compiled next week.  If you have any comments about this fork we will be taking comments until 6/23, after that no further comments will be considered for this code push.

After this fork, we will work on implementing merged mining at a later date.  With the difficulty changes needed desperately to help the flow of the block chain I didn't want to delay this fork to get merged mining working.

Good news, this is going in the right direction.

Hey guruvan, could it be that you are blocking incoming messages here on the bitcointalk forum?
I am trying to answer your private message, but bitcointalk keeps on telling me that

User 'guruvan' has blocked your personal message.

EDIT: Stupid question, Ofcourse you do, it says so in your signature, lol

Well, i'd always like to answer the same way that someone contacts me.


My apologies - I so rarely use PMs here - and generally only for a first contact. I've had forum PMs blocked since the days when GLBSE collapsed and some less than scrupulous activities by those who have access to forum data were exposed. You can be assured that people who are not the senders or intended recipients read them. If folks would encrypt their pms......

Email & PGP key are in my sig (and I put it pms i do send! Smiley Thanks!

owlhooter - wonder if you'd make a nomp mining key for the tribal trust, and publish it here with a PGP sig and a sig from the trust's address?

If you'd do that, we'd point some hash and future pool fees at that key.

How is Aircoin doing ? (now there was some class A BS from their "team")

Huh?
I've no idea. Why do you think I'm connected to Aircoin (which I don't think I've even heard of before)?

Ah my apology, I know one of the people trolling this(?) Maza thread had gone on about Air - thought it was you - my bad.

I think now there is an opportunity to deal with it, but I don't think just beating old bullshit into the dirt is very useful.

But it isn't just old bullshit, is it?
The same bullshit is being repeated here right now.

Well, there's simply no talking to someone who only has one idea to work with.

Facts have been stated (for months!), and you can choose to ignore what is real and continue to bark up a no longer extant tree, or, you can figure out that things change and people work to correct past mistakes.

however we also know that the tribal Council - which is a traditional authority, but not governmental has approved of it.

No we don't.
We know that has been claimed (by AP), we do not know it is true.


Oh it is you again ?  have you bought Mazacoins now?

Hoi! Let's build cool logo and a new site to lure some rich investers into mzc -

https://www.rapidcx.com/blog/pantera-bitcoin-fund-sec-filing-reveals-96-million-investment



I so badly wished the logos that are on page 29 and 30 would have been incorporated. I personally feel like almost anything is better than what it is currently.

This is who we are.
Natives kept the pilgrims alive for the settling in their land.  That eventually backfired on them badly.  I want to be part of taking Mazacoin into a brighter future of reparation type work for the travesty of events like Trails of Tears type transplantation onto land that was barren and foreign to the very people who provided so many riches in value greater than just the land in the form of corn, aspirin, care, etc.  Things that are priceless and better than we have hardly or can ever hope to compensate them for.  

The damages done to the many nations of native peoples, to me is so much worse than a history of bringing slaves from people who sold their own kind into the service of Europeans, but the balance of recognition that we give at the national level is so much less that it is a shame.  I mean how the fuck can we have a bunch of national holidays for important civil right figures and events, but not recognize as much or more in regards to the nations that sustained so many of our forefathers to the point credit can certainly be given in large part to them for this country even fucking existing!  This is a call to represent the original sovereign nations in their loss of identity and sorrow and take Mazacoin as a chance to offer real value towards a simple revival of a society and economy that was built on the natural order of things here from before our knowledge of its existence is EPIC.  

Please organize this movement into a type of concerted vision that those who want to volunteer in any way will have the chance to do that.  I have had my eyes opens by Payu Harris in videos like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK78RE5Q_s0  

I plead with you let us who see things the way I do know how and when we can represent a society to gain a better future than our past can ever hope to claim or be in represent erroneously in stupid pop culture type representations, that miss so much of the toll and hardship that all people faced in face of the powers that be!  Remember Remember the 5th of November!

Code isn't written in a day. At least not correct code. Give owlhooter some time to work.

and murraypaul - man....if you just have an axe to grind, please, find some other stone to grind it on. We're all well aware of the mishandling of the issues in the past, and until just recently, it's not been anything that could be easily rectified. I think now there is an opportunity to deal with it, but I don't think just beating old bullshit into the dirt is very useful. If you do, please feel free, but do understand that there is no reason to resopnd to these statements any longer. Move onward.

Either support maza or don't, but get something behind you for actual reasons. If you're pissed about maza for some reason, please let's do something about it rather than just scream and yell about the same point over and over and over and over and over.

there is no time for non-constructive discussion. We've had more than plenty destructive discussion.

And right now, you can't trade a coin for goods or service that takes 1minute to 18hrs to make a transaction.

Yes, this is a terrible circumstance that must be fixed fast.

Mining is unbearable. I switched to buying Mazacoin directly (especially at those prices).

I just don't understand why a fix date for a fork isn't already on the table?

What is the next step`?

Yes, this point is more than beaten to death guys.

We're well aware that is was premature (or perhaps straight bullshit) to announce "Official Soveriegn Currency" - without the Tribal government approving it - however we also know that the tribal Council - which is a traditional authority, but not governmental has approved of it. This is rather typical in indian affairs in the US.

It is also the case that no one posting in this thread is making such claims - those were claims made early on by AnonymousPirate, who (apparently) staunchly refused to retract them. All we can do is move forward and ensure that current and future statements reflect the truth of reality and not some dream someone has. 
 
I think that the main concern should be to remove that verbage from mazacoin promotional material, and instead seek real world use from members of the tribes. Buth this is very secondary to actually fixing the code so that the blockchain works correctly. It doesn't matter who calls it a soveriegn currency and who calls it bullshit if you can't use it for the intended purpose - trade.

And right now, you can't trade a coin for goods or service that takes 1minute to 18hrs to make a transaction.
