We added Namecoin to the Cheddur app (https://www.cheddur.com/)! This will allow new users to learn about Namecoin and join the community. Cheddur allows you to link wallets, exchanges, and other services that support NMC so that new users can easily get started. You can also review the project and post your NMC addresses on your profile to receive tips / payments / donations in NMC from other users

Can others from the community please review the profile for quality and help us add supported services? The more active the Namecoin profile is (via user reviews and addresses), the higher it ranks in search results and the more likely newcomers are to discover the Namecoin project!

Is Namecoin dead?  Why can't I trade it on Shapeshift anymore? 

This project in my opinion was a way to have an alternative to the dns layer that is used on the internet.

It was more than could be included into bitcoin so it became it's own coin (again in my opinion).  I think many were worried it may take from bitcoins market share (ahh the good old days) so it was de-emphasized as a crypto coin and more as a dns alternative utility.  That said it is still subject to the same market forces as any other scarce good.

Doe anyone here know the full potential of namecoin?  Good question IMO.  Time will tell..

 since 2016 this coin is more important than ever.  Why do I say this?   ~It took 8 years under Obama but finally the congressional oversight over the ARPA private contractor that maintains the dns layer is gone.  As soon as this protection was lifted we saw individual ip' addresses world wide get targeted for "soft censorship" of wikileak releases at that same time.  I think Assange trolled this event on purpose so there would be much data to study from.  Thank you Julian.

It is my belief that Satoshi knew that something so precious as bitcoin could not survive long in a world that had an internet that was censored so cleverly.  Eventually that beautiful unknown genius saw that the dns layer could be used to target each ip running bitcoin in a malicious way.

   These are just my opinions they could be wrong or correct or any blend of the two.. do your own research!



                                                                                          regards,

I has read and i understand about this project mean, maybe if my advice you can give explain more about this project or this announcement, that is so simple explain, if you add many statement you can make someone understand all about your project

wow nice bunch of hate there you've got.  No I am not telling anyone to buy or not buy anything.  I am here for namecoin.  And I was making a point about freedom of money which is a very important concept.  I realize namecoin is not looked at as a crypto coin perhaps as like the others.  And your use of the trollspeak bcash tells me my answer why you have the hatred for the example I used in my comments.  Instead of attacking the substance of the comment you attack me personally.  That is lawyer trick #3.  Often used when facts are not present.  regards

just reporting the information I found.  that xbc is reserved internationally for bitcoin cash. regards

Says the bcash idiot who is also pushing something called trumpcoin. This is a namecoin forum. Go try and pump your shitcoins in the proper area.

Bitcoinplus already uses the ticker [XBC] so they may stick with BCC or BCH.

I was not going to respond but then I saw your tag line so in the interest of clearing confusion and for information only:

Bitcoin cash is actually bitcoin in my informed opinion.  it is not called bcash.   that is trollspeak. The abbreviation is bch/ xbc for now.. Additionally and more importantly there is a thing called freedom of money.  And yes it is different that access to money by right or by privilege (though those are fascinating topics worth study too).  Anyway freedom of money can be measured since money is a commodity of sorts and can be measured as it moves.  The choke points and bottlenecks and various regulations are all factored in to give a final rating.  Democracies can also be rated in this way... Things like if you are granted access to information, government transparency, etc are factored to give a final rating of 1-10.

     Well right now bitcoin is suffering from a severe reduction in the freedom of money it once enjoyed.  What is more tragic is this was imposed from the inside!  So while there are countless examples of nations regulating bitcoin into the ground externally it still survived only to be encumbered most from the inside.  

I therefore will caution when calling the people working on bch idiots when they are just responding to the situation.  The alternative would have been to let bitcoin die on the vine as people will use other coins to transfer amounts less than several million dollars., we are already seeing it in smaller amounts now.  People on the bitcoin thread are genuinely scared and with good reason..  

I think merge mining with namecoin is worth looking into for bch

This is really intriguing. BCash would have been better going for the merged-mining option on this evidence, instead of attacking to take over Bitcoin's hash power ... idiots.

I like how the new Manage Names tab on the QT client is shaping up also ... good work Brandon R.

Namecoin seems to be active on Reddit..
Btw who is the Dev/Team and are they still active?
Any future plan? I have recently found this coin and I want to know before investing

... and join the ongoing discussion at https://reddit.com/r/Namecoin/new  
By the way, Namecoin has the highest hashrate of all the cryptocurrencies at the moment
(one of the side effects of the ongoing BTC vs. BCH mining pools hashrate battle),
see https://www.reddit.com/r/Namecoin/comments/7cge6l/namecoin_hashrate_is_now_higher_than_bitcoin/

I know there is a lot happening in crypto right now.  I am sure once the dust settles people will come back to this project.  Maybe not IDK. 

Shame! I thought this was a good project and I was looking to invest in it..

It would be a good project, if the developers maintained a close connection with the community.
[irony]Come to Wex exchange, a lot of people will pray for you:
Sir buy my bags! NMC moon![/irony]

Idea is good . the team is very strong , i think that is good project worth to invest

Thanks, but I don't think that is what I am looking for.  When I said convert, I meant exchange one currency for another, not just to see the conversion of rates.  That is the site I like best for the rate charts, but I don't see a way to swap currencies there.

Where can I convert Namecoin to other currencies and vice versa?  I used to do it on Shapeshift.io, but for several months it has said "Temporarily unavailable."
