No linux wallet? How am I supposed to help out with this coin If I dont have a wallet?
Info graphics of this coin would be nice. IF anyone can do it.
Hey guys - Richie from bittrex.com here.... Been talking to a few of you guys here and our dev team... decided to make this interesting for both of us...
If you can get 100 people to sign up on bittrex before we launch (sometime this weekend probably), we'll include you guys as a launch coin. We've made similar deals with a couple smaller coins just to see who can get traction
If you want to see SynCoin listed, goto bittrex.com and register with the code 'SYN_ACK' and deposit something or turn on 2fa (just to make sure you're real) and we'll count it...
Good luck

Sounds good, I'll try and get the word out.

"One feature that seems to be catching on is the anonymous function that Tips and a few other coins are doing. It's something to look into when you had the time, or got bored."
> Is this the coin mixing I've been hearing about? It's a fairly complex system
Yes, it's complicated, basically they guy explained it like this "There are extra coins floating around the network on the nodes, it just mixes them into a block then sends them along to the intended target" I know if you send a large amount it will send any that can't be mixed back to your wallet might get fixed as more people use it. Will find the devs post about it. Last I knew the code hasn't been released publically.
"People are more and more worried about encryption anymore, to keep it safe from hackers or manipulation. Is it possible to add google authenticator to your wallet? Instead of one option of encrypt wallet like ever other coin?"
> Wallet encryption generally suffices, as long as the password is sufficiently long. Google Authenticator could be pretty easy to add, however
As for this I look at it this way plan for the stupidest, idiot you can think of. Then build for them. The encrypt feature built into the wallet is nice and all. However if you loose it or forget it you lose all your coins in your wallet no matter what. How many people forget there passwords everyday? I know for mainstream the average person would be pretty pissed off if they forgot their password and could never get there money from there bank account ever again. Personally I have my wallets passwords save in a text file on several flash drives and its just a huge randomly generated set of anything. If I lost them all or one got hacked I could be screwed because I use same one for every wallet. Not the smartest idea but its better then using so many passwords I forget them. If I was to bet on it, I would say 70% of the wallets out there don't have there wallets encryption setup. Just a guess that I pulled from my ass.

If you want to see this coin succeed it needs a lot of marketing, unique wallet features, fast confirmations times, a secure block chain without an unexpected fork, and can't be manipulated by anyone. This is my reasoning, ideas and I have no affiliations to this coin other than mining it and donating some of it back.
I really think this coin has potential, especially if Mt. Gox keeps fucking over Bitcoin. Granted he did finally resign from the board. His site magically went down because hes missing 744,408 Bitcoins. This coin has a lot of interesting features other coins do not have in regulating the supply. The auto switch to ScriptN. It has a dev who is active and has some interesting post for trolls lmao. That alone can make or break a crypto currency, for the short term
Someone earlier said you should add interest to the wallet. I personally think its a good idea if you keep it low 1-2% a year if not less. Mintcoins, 20% for the first year might come back and haunt them in the end. With the current reward highest reward block being 120, I think. There should be room in the total amount of coins, to possibly make it happen. If you wanted too. One feature that seems to be catching on is the anonymous function that Tips and a few other coins are doing. It's something to look into when you had the time, or got bored.
People are more and more worried about encryption anymore, to keep it safe from hackers or manipulation. Is it possible to add google authenticator to your wallet? Instead of one option of encrypt wallet like ever other coin? It doesn't have to be googles just any of the many authenticators out there. This feature would be a huge boost to people feeling more secure in their wallets. Just like a fast confirmation time of 10secs or less not sure what it is on syncoin with a 4 min block.
Another question is if you remember the doge fork a few weeks ago that caused their price to fall, was that bug that caused it to reject a large block in the older wallet. It was fixed in the newest wallet, so it caused a hard fork on accident. Was this problem fixed in this coin before launch? I am assuming it was don't have time to read through all the source code myself really busy with work. If it wasn't, it's better to fix that bug before it happens here and causes people to lose faith in a coin. Unexpected forks are bad for any crypto currency.
As for word of mouth, lets face it the people on these forums are the "nerds" who do this for fun, or for cash. The other type is investors who see potential in the crypto currency concept, or like the pump and dump coins for quick cash. I wouldn't call either group set really mainstream population. Most people are stupid and just follow the way Hollywood and the news go. Bitcoins became more mainstream in November when the price few up? Wasn't there national headlines in the US at least of someone accepting Bitcoins as payment for his house around that same time? Most people really do not understand much beyond one or 2 decimal places. I know there are smaller denominations for Bitcoin, but hell I barely understand their names, if you asked the average person the street what a Satoshi is they would look at you like you and say a what. If your expecting word of mouth to get this coin mainstream you have to get your head outta you ass, it wont happen. Big news articles, interesting names for the smaller demonizations. People understand Euro, Yen, Dollar, Rubbles there all simple to remember names, and most have a simple coin structure/names. When currency is traded, they have I think 3 or 4 decimals? People mostly only think of them as a 2 decimal currency. This is a sad fact, but in the US atleast if you want to get accepted and be mainstream you have to get hollywood and news on your side. Superbowl ads also does it if people find them funny, or remember them. GO DADDY case in point. Dogecoin did the fundraiser a few athletes for the Soshi games. Great simple exposures.
We might want to dream/wish that word of mouth will make this coin mainstream, but a motto I have at my own business "Wish in one hand and shit in the other and tell me which one fills up first". Wishes and dreams only can fill heads reality is you have to have a marketing campaign to drive this coin mainstream. Apps for wallets on peoples phones, secure wallets that are almost impossible to hack. Easy way to use it to pay for things, with a quick confirmation time. Make it the preferred coin to gamble with. That's what 60% of the Bitcoin market? People here shouldn't be thinking of this coin SYN/BIT it should be All coins/SYN.
To help with marketing and development of this coin have you considered creating a public wallet address where everyone can see the balance at all times? With this address programmed into every wallet as lets say community fund or coin development fund something like that, so everyone can easily donate to that address, should they so choose. Then create a foundation that controls that fund and decides how it spent and where. 9 member board so its less likely to have favoritism/corruption. 5 permanent or 4 permanent and 5 voted by the community or 4 if 5 permanent. The permanent members can be kicked off with a simple 60% vote by the other members of the board in case one goes crazy or insane. Then this group of people would be responsible for making sure this coins gets promoted/marketed. Offering rewards to help pay developments projected to help this coin grow in popularity. Plus posting all expenditures online so everyone can see what the funds were used for and when. Trust being the upmost importance.
Its been driving me nuts for years people thinking word of mouth works for crypto coins. It works for restaurants and only around where they are located. This coin is just one the first, I thought had potential after Bitcoin and litecoins. It just needs a marketing campaign behind it and more apps and development of its already unique features.
Yes, I rambled a lot, with bad grammar. You might think I am crazy (I could be) just a random person on a forum. Ignore me, all you like just thought I would bring this to peoples attention based on personal experience word of mouth only goes so far and very slowly. Great for the food industry to slow without some marketing for the crypto world.
I think it was blueangel01 post I read on another forum that said it best "4 months is 4 years in the crypto world!"

I emailed bittrex.com a new exchange undergoing beta testing now (hop on board if you can!). They showed interest in listing us.
Anyone know how to project the volume of our possible exchange? this was thier response:
Thanks for the email. We will do some research and check the coin out. Do you know if there is an active google docs exchange or anything like that to project volume?

Nobody has made any trade yet in Syncoin. So we have no history to provide. Poor history = Poor credit score.
Dev can you please create a google docs exchange? Even if its manually. I would volunteer to be escrow if possible with no fee.
Edit: If you want to buy/sell SYncoin you can use this to make offer/bid: http://www.shiliwu.com/
Sure, I can setup a Google Doc later today.

Uh, not yet -- but we can make one

Trade with confidence. Member since 2011. Can go all at once or smaller transfers if you like. Will accept Cryptsy trade key transfer(BTC) for quicker exchange.

UPDATE: I've started work on a backup exchange (SYN/BTC).
This will only be used in two scenarios:
* We get into no exchanges by the end of this week besides LazyCoins (which launch is still fuzzy) (still love them though)
* All exchanges are down (unlikely, but necessary safety)
It'll function as follows.
Similar to coin-flip game (ironically, the game was ADAPTED from the EXCHANGE) -- you get a BTC address and SYN address on registration
Then, you put out orders -- whoever takes them, their BTC will go to your account, and so on and so forth
The front-end is done, backend needs some tweaking.
ETA: 2 weeks completion (so worst case if we don't get trading this week, we will be by the end of the month)

Syncoin, can your team possibly make something like this: (its fake)
Wow....A wallet with built in candle charts. That would be AMAZING. Awesome idea.
Amazing, but somewhat unrealistic. Do you have any idea how much coding it would take to build a secure full fledged trading platform and to incorporate it into a wallet?
I was under the impression they where intending to use the Cryptsy API or something similar. It might not be as bad as you think.
Yeah, not bad at all. When we get on an exchange (confirmed and working) we'll look into it

I have no idea. But there is an alpha version of Particle coin in which they have added cyptsy website into the wallet. Thier wallet is like an android with apps on it.
If it is possible i would not mind donating BTC/LTC for the development.
My idea is to combine the wallets BTC + SYN + color coins = Trading platform for the 2 coins. It will give boost to our coin. I don't know any coding so yeah... it is just my imagination.
Hmm, I'll check it out. Examples are always good.
Whats a good way to help market syn?
At this point? Get it to every exchange you find. Once we become backed by at least one crypto, the traffic will flow naturally. A lot of people know about SynCoin, but aren't ready to jump in because it technically has no value yet.
Reddit tipping is a good marketing tactic too, but I suggest you use an alt account -- some subreddits aren't so nice to altcoin tippers.
Whats a good way to help market syn?
Amen to voting!
