Is it possible that ppl are selling their hard earned yacoins for 0.00016... What a bunch od stupid idiots  Huh

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2522690

I have 50 BTC ready to be invested in YAC but I ain't gonna be buying unless price drops to 0.000085 or so. Not only that paying more makes no
sense from trader perspective, but investing 50 BTC in altcoin which is still not super strong (lacks huge support by miners) is very risky move.

The price will probably go up a bit in 5 days time because the Nfactor is going to change. Hashing rate will drop to about 50% and difficulty will take a while to adjust.

It makes no difference how low hashrate will become, what matters is how many YAC one gets in some period of time using some hardware. Since
difficulty is about to drop, reward per block will go up so one will be getting more YAC with same hardware than now. In other words, what matters
is your % of total hashrate.

Right, so your total % of hashrate will decrease with the N-value increase as it becomes more attractive for CPUs to mine.  You also have to consider the % of PoS blocks, and how they will continue to increase over time, which encourages people to hoard/save.  Of course, you then have the speculation of all of this occuring and when it occurs.  Add in the factor of btc-e possibly adding it in the near future.  This idea that you can determine the price of yacoin by comparing it to how profitable it is to mine with a GPU versus bitcoin at this point in time is absurd.

Why not using a circle, and the Y in it is pale too simple!

Circle is becoming boring, but I'd try to use 3D cube and 3 sides of it for Y and then draw horizontal line on top surface but I'm too lazy now.  Cheesy

Considered that myself, might give it a go

Can you use a leave & Y as its stem! Cool, is it?

Circle is becoming boring, but I'd try to use 3D cube and 3 edges of it for Y and then draw horizontal line on top surface but I'm too lazy now.

Bahh, here it is, the ultimate provocation!  Cheesy



Hah, this is interesting. BFL makes a lot of people heart breaking...

You're right, currently YAC still has a need to improve the server/client. So the PoS blocks can not threat the whole network.

Favicon for Yacoin sites. Yacoin Blue

as inspiration. Thanks dcl595

Hey, thanks for that, I actually did a test colour sheet, I can make any of the combinations on request, or there is a psd knocking around in one of these threads if anyone wants to mod it themselves

Although it's quite clean image. But I'm not fond of it because it's too simple. I prefer complex images and unique and art or beauty.

I have a fun little countdown page for the Nfactor:

Thanks for all the developers working on this. I've never seen so many working together. Aside from bitcoin that is.

TBH, I don't like the checkpointing thing, it makes things complex & centralized.
It's your choice. But there is no way to resolve this weighting scheme flaw without checkpointing.

If you will implement new trust score calculation method, it will introduce chain fork, so you still need grace period with checkpointing.

I see. When I see the checkpointing validation code "... pfrom->Misbehaving(100);". This is interesting and make me laugh and make me remind some scenarios in my childhood playing house-holding games. Cheesy

And then I review code "bool CBlock::CheckBlock(bool fCheckPOW, bool fCheckMerkleRoot) const",
OMHOLYGOD, this code makes me crazy.
