Topic: [ANNOUNCE] SolidCoin - new and improved block chain. Secure from pools - page 4. (Read 85461 times)

Anyone notice that the solidcoin blockchain appears to be growing by about 1 MB every few hours.

Anybody else stuck on block 28364?  I've wiped my entire SolidCoin directory, including the AppData (saved my .conf and wallet.dat though) and started from scratch with 1.04 and it still gets stuck on that block.

Well, I assumed they were selling the BTC for fiat after they're done with profiting from the *coins. After all, prospects of BTC doesn't look very good ATM.

I mined some i0coins when they came out. Same with SolidCoins. Didn't go all in on either chain, but figured, you know, if they end up worth something later, grabbing some while the grabbing is easy isn't a bad idea. The power I threw into each one would have gotten me, like, $10 worth of Bitcoins so it's not as if I have some big loss if that never happens.


There's been no shortage of it, and it's not just the forks. The revelations about Bruce Wagner were a big start. The ridiculous trolling some of that turned into ain't helping. It went so far as a user being thrown off the forum for threatening others, after all, and even -that- got a couple threads of its own and has been dragging on for days.

Some of this stuff I'm perfectly willing to go voice my opinion on -- and then there's been plenty of it I don't wanna touch with a 10-hop pole. :/

I'm pretty confident that Bitcoin's fundamentals will survive this, though. And future forks still have a shot if they're done right. I do think that most outside people are at least smart enough to take some of the animosity between chains for what it is: competition. Same as how, say, IBM and HP will bash each other when they get the chance. Work at a place with both Sun and HP giant rack servers and get an IBM field tech on the premises and walk him by the not-IBM hardware, and watch the fun, -ESPECIALLY- if the problem involves, say, the HP and IBM machines not seeing each other on the network and a switch from Cisco.

Most people buying these fork chain coins are those that already have BTC's and are getting in some in case one of them sticks.

I have no reason to believe people are buying BTC's to purchase Fork coins.

Now. I do believe in one thing that may be effecting the price. All this crap and soap opera BS going on in the forums.

We are getting way off topic here but I hope you sold your BTC too,  because it keeps melting to a puddle of dog piss... like a yellow snow.
So, can we say that all the *coins are actually a big joke on all of us? Lets hope not!
But one thing is for sure. Faster we mine the BTC, faster it will lose it's value - supply just exceeds the demand and I guess <8 USD a pop speaks in volumes.
Please,  do not tell me how it used to cost a 0.0whatever. I do not care! Important is, how it will be priced in the near future.
I know, Mr Greed will not let you do that but for the BTC sake, stop mining and flooding the market! (or find a way how a real world business can and WANTS to actually use it)
What about solidcoin? It needs a new team and only then it has a future.

Anybody can see some quick bitcoin stats by going to my daemon page(including block number)

or my 50 other domains to prevent phishing

i have more....

Thanks.  It seems I'm stuck at 28416 with the 1.04 client.  Ugh.

29589

Anybody know what the current block # is?  I'm at around 19K and still downloading :-/

I am sure these profits contributed to the recent consistent losses in BTC value. The more scams and unfair profits people make and they sell off their BTC profits, this brings the BTC value down. I guess we all knew that things like this would happen when we got into it... 

Payouts for the Bitparking pool and exchange are slightly slow at the moment due to what appears to be a solidcoin bug where the client lags behind the real blockchain. This results in long transaction confirmation times. I've updated the exchange page with this information, along with other solidcoin issues I hit while using it.

I'm sorry your maniacal patron destroyed the value you thought you held.

I believe there are good reasons that "alternate" blockchains haven't managed to hold their own, in general, above 1% of BTC for a respectable length of time.

To anyone considering holding any real money in this stuff, it'd pay dividends, literally, to seriously consider where the value is and why.  I suggest mises.org is a gold mine that might give one ideas to chew on.

Satoshi was quite a bit smarter than most seem to give credit.  He may not have gotten everything right, but daily the accumulation of evidence is that he got far more right than he got wrong.  Respect!

I predict SolidCoin 1.05's license will say you're not allowed to use it. After all, it's closed source, and he already specifically tried to attack the Bitcoin people in his "license."

Wow...

Yo Coinhunter, remember how you said you thought I was bad with money and that I'd be kicking myself for not buying at these prices (which at the time were .15)?

Retraction please?

There are issues with the solidcoin client and network causing delays in confirmations in some transactions. This is related to the transaction and block limit sizes recently introduced as well as the developer keeping the 1.02 client available for download on the solidcoin site even though 1.03 and 1.031 were released. It's even possible for transfers from the 1.02 client to be forever stuck at 0/unconfirmed due to the new rules in the later versions not accepting them. If you still have not got the funds in 24 hours, PM me with the address you withdrew to and I'll track down what the issue is.

Rest of you relax, some people are working their asses off right now to get it all fixed. We can move on without the Coinhuner/RealSolid crap.

Lets turn those asspennies to real solidcoins!

Get the bull shit free client form:  [ANNOUNCE] New Solidcoin Client Fully Open-Source!

Bye Bye!

All pools should close shop, even for Bitcoin. lol

Note on http://sc.btcguild.com:

Due to licensing changes in SolidCoin, the arrogance of the developer, and his complete lack of respect to developers of the project he based his entire project on, SC Guild will be going offline on September 11th (one week from this notice). Any developer of a massive online platform should welcome bug reports and fix them, not cry and complain when someone uses them to prove the point that the developer refused to acknowledge.

The pool will keep functioning until September 7th, to give users time to change their miners. Payouts will stop being available at noon on September 11th (PDT).

This is your one week warning. After that week is up, SC Guild will be gone and it will NOT be coming back.

Yes sir I did.  And still no trace of my Bitcoins I withdrew from Bitparking and Coinotron.
