Big price hike in Namecoin somebody know whats cooking?
Looks like the usual pump-and-dump pattern that starts with unrelated altcoin news (here: Ethereum) and later spills over to other altcoins (this time PPC and NMC).However, there could also be some rich investors in Asiacapital flow control and EuropeQuantitative Easing. They are starting to look for alternative storage of value, and therefore invest in altcoins with a robust infrastructure and an up-to-date Core codebase.

The point here is to validate ownership of names, not restrict the total number of names or in the system to an arbitrary upper limit, right?
If so, would it be possible to tie in the difficulty of the proof-of-work to be based on the number of new name requests seen in the past two weeks? That is, the more requests, the easier the difficulty of hashing a block, and the more quickly blocks are generated? POW would also obviously have to be tied into the amount of processing power being thrown at the network as well.

btw: Help needed testing this Namecoin id/ pgp keyserver: https://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2476
btw2: The rebased client is humming along nicely. There is an external rpc GUI frontend for name operations with the new client available (nameGUI, includes experimental secure name trading). Even the manage name tabs might come back to the new client.
btw3: There is a roadmap now (work in progress) that shows some of things that are currently going on: https://github.com/namecoin/meta/blob/master/roadmap.md

namecoin-wallet.com uses the same template including the same typos as ppc-wallet.com and dash-wallet.com.
Both have been identified as scam, see

I didn't know it before. It claims to not have access to the coins on the About page, meaning that the private keys would be handled locally in JavaScript. On the other hand, it writes about "free" and "instant" payments, which sounds more like a hosted wallet (which fits to the fact that they want your email address on registration).
I would say you should take care and not put more money on it than on some random exchange, if any at all - but maybe someone else knows more details and can correct me here.

Just curious , has the bitcoin core pruning feature -prune been ported to namecoin ? This allow to run nodes with minimal hard disk requirement
We are now stay in sync with Bitcoin. I don't know if anybody has yet tried pruning. With the Namecoin blockchain still being way smaller it is a lower priority and we rather want to go towards SPV. October 01, 2015, 06:18:34 AM
I like this project . One of the few altcoins that make sense and are useful. Sad to see onename and other projects move away from namecoin.
Here is our answer to that: http://blog.namecoin.org/post/130158040415/onenames-blockstore-is-much-less-secure-thanAnd here the ongoing discussion on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3mwtw8/onenames_blockstore_is_much_less_secure_than/
