Great work!

Waiting for x64 windows version...

Well, you know, you can run 32-bit version on a 64-bit Windows just fine. Tongue

In a way related to CC, pay attention to individual unspent inputs! Lowest PoS reward seems to be 0.05 YAC and, based on already mined
PoS blocks, it seems minimum amount input should hold to make sure at least 0.05 YAC will be staked later is around 10 YAC. There were few
inputs bellow 10 YAC that got PoS reward (0.05 YAC or slightly more) but generaly speaking if you want PoS coins you should gather coins
on 10+ YAC piles. Use CC to select small unspent inputs (like 1 or 0.025 YAC) and send them to one of your addresses in such a way that
transaction amount is 10 or more YAC.

Put differently, all those individual 1 YAC or similary small payouts you received will never ever return any PoS rewards! If you are holding
other PoS altcoins than you should check already mined PoS blocks there. The worst case seems to be BTB, where very few people actualy
got PoS rewards. Bellow is data for 3 latest BTB PoS blocks at time of this post, notice that in all 3 cases PoS reward is 0 coins.

Nice find! This should definitely be added to the wiki.

Great, I will look into later.  Maybe someone else can as well?  From what I understand Coin Control has nothing to do with 'coin age' as coin control is for managing multiple addresses and was originally built for Bitcoin--obviously coin age does not apply, no Proof of Stake.

When you switch to list view, you'll see the exact date/time of all all your outputs. From there you can derive input age.

Does it satisfy all requirements?
I guess so. Give it a try and lemme know if something's not right.
I don't have LINUX... I have Windows 64

OK, I've built it for you (although compiling under windoze is a royal PITA -.-").
Just unzip and it should work.

There was a similar high bounty for making Coin Control compatible with Yacoin.
Where is that? I think we need an official YAC bounty threat first. There is one at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=200311.120, but it seems not in use much...
I can't find it, but I am very sure I read such a post. ~1 Month ago...

Yeah, I saw it, too. That's what made me thinking about implementing it in YAC. And those new bounties just made me do it faster. Cheesy

I JUST posted a new topic... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276606.new#new

Does it satisfy all requirements?

I think it is important for YaCoin's future that the ones with the biggest shares of the YaCoin economy are willing to invest a portion of their holdings in  new developments and such.  Not that hoarding is bad, but it isn't the best way for this currency to compete.

There was a similar high bounty for making Coin Control compatible with Yacoin.

I will offer a 25,000 YaCoin bounty for anyone to make this feature if it is even possible...
In this threat that might get lost, so if you serious about that start a new threat so more people find it. I'd also add 5k to it, but at first we have to bundle all bounties for CC to see how much is actually on it. Maybe it would be a good idea to also put up the bounty in BTC to attract programmers outside of altcoins...

If someone wants BTC, they can sell their YaCoin for cheap back to me Smiley  I am not trying to stimulate some other coin's economy with this offer.

Guess I'll have to release it in order to get some testing going.  Roll Eyes So here comes...

YaCoin Wallet with Coin Control!

Git repo: https://github.com/saironiq/yacoin-cc

Compile as usual, eg. for linux:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/saironiq/yacoin-cc.git
cd yacoin-cc/src
make -f makefile.unix
cd ..
qmake
make

Then in Settings -> Options -> Display, check "Display coin control features (experts only!)".
Aaaand it's done. Enjoy. Wink

I'm working on porting Coin Control into Yacoin-QT client. Wink All bounties welcome Cheesy
Great, I'm really looking forward to this.
The compile finished successfully, so it should work.
Shit. Couldn't you have written that a little bit earlier and saved me some yacs? I tought someone might be already working on that but why didn't I trust my instincts ...

Just for curiousity, wouldn't you have announced your update to Yacoin-qt today anyways?

Haha, sorry for that. Cheesy Sure I would announce it, why not?
Are you interested in testing it? You'll have to compile it from source yourself, tho...

A YaCoin market place... a Java miner...

I think it is important to learn to walk before trying to run at this point with yacoin.  In that spirit, I'd really like to see a breakdown in my wallet of my coins and their respective coin-age, and I want the ability to choose which ones to send when I  make a send transaction.  It should also be user friendly as opposed to typing in commands in a console.  I will offer a 25,000 YaCoin bounty for anyone to make this feature if it is even possible...

I am looking to invest a sizable bounty to boost YaCoin, but I'm having trouble coming up with an idea. What is the best product that the YaCoin economy needs right now?

Supply a product or service which can only be paid for with YAC. Demand will drive price up and boost the overall YAC economy.

For example, buy an iPhone on ebay for $200, offer to sell it for $150 in equivalent YAC currency. Your bounty is the $50 you lose on the deal, and the upside is the increase in interest and liquidity, as well as from miners.

-Michael

So one guy once spends 150$ in YAC and exchanges them immediately ...  Roll Eyes

I belive YAC's killer app might be somewhere on micropayments for websites or such as an alternative or addition to advertising rewards. That would require an efficient JAVA miner, but as far as I heard that can't be done. Maybe it's still worth a shot in the dark to see if an inefficient one is suitable ...

If you find a good idea to bounty on I'd probably plege on that too so shoot me a PM when you have one.
