So now we have Xtag, Tagx Tag token, Tagcoin original,   Now we are going backwards

Agreed.  Market analysis sites such as coinmarketcap.com and coingecko.com are not polling TAG (yobit) and XTAG (novaexchange) on the same page, neither does blockfolio's APP so it is essential at this cross-road that we settle on a new name for the TAG original coin.

I have waited a week after Mark's post to enable anyone else who wants to make suggestions or indeed step up to the crease and offer themselves to help with the social media etc to be known.

As noone else has made suggestions (other than the above comment on the naming of the TAG Script coin) I would like to ask that the script coin TAG be transitioned to XTAG as mentioned in the OP that novaexchange has chosen to label the "old tagcoin block chain".

TAG cash is entitled to name it's own tokens as it pleases, however, the original TAG scrypt coin either continues to be known as TAG, or, something distinct e.g. XTAG.  The TAGcoin Original label will in time be dropped as we transition to XTAG, but for now it's being used to clearly identify which TAG is being talked about.

To make things a little easier, I will recreate the current TagCoin on Stellar as Tagcash Rewards (TAGX), with a 1 to one swap for Stellar token holders (easy to do simply be sending stellar TAG to the issuer address and it would automatically send TAGX to the sender address. I will keep open the direct swap for old TagCoin to new TAGX at 10 to 1 exchange (10 new TAGX for 1 old TagCoin), after sending to the burn address TRCryptoLifeDotNetBurnAddrXXX6gvik, and sending me the transaction ID to prove it.

Hopefully, this will remove the confusion between the 2 different currencies.

We can talk discuss transfer of twitter and social media for TagCoin, since someone needs to take charge of it and as a community you would have to decide who.

As I didn't follow the progression of TAG to TAGcash / TAGtoken I'm sorry to say I don't quite follow the above suggestion of tagcash (Mark) of sending more TAG (scrypt) to TRCryptoLifeDotNetBurnAddrXXX6gvik which would further diminish the available coin supply of TAG original scrypt.

XTAG is a scrypt coin.
TAGcash is a Token.

Let's see if we can get this done!




Pinchpool does still not work and are unresponsive - we therefore advise not to use their pool.

Exchanges such as Novaexchange have continued to support the TAG Original listing it as XTAG [BTC][DOGE] together with the all important addnode= information and mining companies such as FindBlocks.Wales enable the block chain to continue to move forward with their pool operations and block explorer.

Background:

TAGcoin (TAG) was released in 2013 as a PoW/PoS hybrid Scrypt coin and has continued to be mined, traded, HODL'ed (and talked about) ever since.

Its founder Mark Vernon [Skype] walked away from the project in late 2017 swapping many TAG coins for a Token also known originally as TAG then later as TAGCash [Archive] with many coins sent to a burn address TRCryptoLifeDotNetBurnAddrXXX6gvik in exchange for the TAGcash Token [Archive] on the ProofCore backbone [Archive].

Exchanges such as Novaexchange have continued to support the TAG Original listing it as XTAG [BTC][DOGE] together with the all important addnode= information and mining companies such as FindBlocks.Wales enable the block chain to continue to move forward with their pool operations and block explorer.

The very first versions of the TAG wallet can be downloaded from the Way Back Machine by browsing the first archived version of the download page - [Windows][Mac OSX][Ubuntu] as well as the original [Source Code (Zip)] for version 1.0.1.0 and corresponding [GitHub Archive] plus Version 4.0 of the TAGcash Android Apk. (note, check out other tagcoin.org archived pages for later versions of the android APK)

As can be seen on that archived page we can glean the following information:

  • Total Premine - TAG 10,500
  • Given out so far as referrals - TAG 1050
  • Paid out for Mac CLient - TAG 100
  • Giveaway for Android App Testing - TAG 100
  • Giveaway for RFID Binding - TAG 250
  • Earmarked for Blockhain explorer - TAG 100

This list contradicts Mark's later assertion that there was no pre-mine of TAG. (page was last edited on the 18th Nov 2017 - four years after TAG's original launch).  In any event, we know for certain the following information: As at block 779577 there is a money supply of 7649384.60544700 TAG with 3916637.748056 TAG having been sent to the burn wallet address TRCryptoLifeDotNetBurnAddrXXX6gvik which leaves just 3732746.857391 TAG in circulation. I.E. At this point more than 51% of the mined TAG are in one wallet - admittedly a burn wallet, but still...

The most current version of TAG Original that was released is Client Version TAG-v2.0.0.build-g-bdb-gcc on the http://tag.proofcore.com/ website [Archive] - The various versions are: [Windows][Mac OSX][Ubuntu] and the all important [Source Code]

On the Technical Specifications page, we know that TAGcoin Original is:

  • Pow/PoS hybrid (5% yearly interest, PoS blocks generated after 30 days of coin age)
  • Algorithm: Scrypt
  • Starting difficulty: 0.5
  • Coins per block: 30
  • PoW Subsidy reduction: 1% every 3 months, minimum reward of 3 coins
  • Time between blocks: 4 minutes
  • Retarget: Every 2 hours, with a 25% limit in either direction
  • Network Port: 8623
  • RPC Port: 9624

A tagcoin.conf file would therefore look something like this:

Code:
rpcuser=UserName
rpcpassword=UserPassword

rpcport=9624
port=8623

# (0=off, 1=on) daemon - run in the background as a daemon and accept commands
daemon=0
# (0=off, 1=on) server - accept command line and JSON-RPC commands

server=0
testnet=0

# rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

# rpcallowip=168.0.0.1

An [Archive] of the Github.com/tagcoin/tagcoin-qt page occurred on the 20th of January 2016 (Version 1.1)

An archive of the github.com/tagcoin/tagcoin page occurred on the 29th of January 2016 [Archive 1] and again on the 7th of February 2018 [Archive 2]


Social Media:

TAG Original has its own Discord Channel but as yet no other social media channels.  There is a disused Twitter Account for TAGcoin, however, it has not been posted by a non-bot since the 29th of July 2017 and has remained disused in the last six months.  If Mark is reading this, we would respectfully ask him to make contact to discuss handing over passwords for Twitter and any other social media outlets so that we can carry on his original vision of the coin being used to TAG and TIP (and the secret key for the TAG wallet alert key too BTW)


TAG Original continues to be favoured on the Chinese AEX.com market which is the rebuilt btc38.com exchange [Archive].  Unfortunately, TAG is traded for just the in-house coin GAT however, the daily trades of TAG on today's date runs to a staggering 2.46 million TAG!




Yobit.net Exchange trades TAG Original.  According to their Coin Info page, at the moment there is:

Quote
Name   Fullname   Algo   MoneySupply   Diff.POW   Diff.POS

TAG    Tagcoin    Scrypt    7474652.55    2643.69330000    0.19285323

So we are uncertain if they are discounting certain burned coins that we haven't been made aware of as yet.  Given the closeness of their coin count, we have no reason to believe that their exchange is not connected to the TAG Original network.

YoBit's trading pairs with TAG are: [BTC][ETH][DOGE][WAVES][USD][RUR]

Market Caps:

CoinGecko:      https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/tagcoin
CoinMarketCap:      https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tagcoin/ Unfortunately, neither polls novaexchange's XTAG and both have inaccurate money supply / marketcap etc information.

Any hints on a BBCode for either of the above would be greatly appreciated.

Other Technical Information:

There is no active Paper Wallet for TAG Original - given that it a PoW/PoS hybrid I would discourage their use long-term.

To Do:

More Exchanges, more nodes, one or two more block explorers - any suggestions?

Where to from here?

TAG Original has a small but dedicated following, I see no reason why we can't combine our resources in the coming days, weeks and into years to come to build TAG Original into a global player.  Think Big people...

Comments, clarifications and words of encouragement are always welcome.
