From what I’ve read about BCN it offers much better anonymity which is cool. Besides CPU-only mining makes it possible for the community to grow faster since more people can afford it.

You r right. That's why we are mining this coin. BCN is the first coin based on better algorithm in compare with other altcoins.

If you don't save the blockchain, you need to start the sync since the begining, that's very bad !
Is there any plan to implement auto-save ?

Can anyone on linux or OS X give me their blockchain.bin?

edit: found it on bytecoin.org

Aren't the Linux and Mac blockchains cross-compatible?
Yeah. I'm assuming all Unix blockchains are compatible with each other.

I was confused because bytecoin.org has separate blockchain downloads for Linux and Mac. o_O

100k diff -> 100000/120 H/s = 833 H/s. A typical CPU can get ~10-15 H/s, so this translates to some 50-80 CPUs from July 2012 to February 2014 (see graph). Of course, some people have more than 1 CPU so it's hard to know how many holders there are.

If you're going to mention the graph, for pretty much all of 2013 (or at least what claims to be 2013) it was well below 100k, more like 30-50k, which is roughly 20-40 PCs, or a smaller number of powerful workstations or servers. Only in late 2013 did it get as high as 100k. That is not a released coin being widely used by some large secret community in the deep web or anywhere else. It is at best a small group of developers.

a few dozen pc's?? there is 343 connected to minergate alone.

Not now. I'm talking about the alleged two year history. (I actually believe the true history to be far shorter but I can't prove it.)

The hash rate shown in the past on the block chain is far, far lower than today.

Last I looked it was about 6 million now. It's about 100k for most of that chart.


For those wondering how to go from diff to # of CPUs:

100k diff -> 100000/120 H/s = 833 H/s. A typical CPU can get ~10-15 H/s, so this translates to some 50-80 CPUs from July 2012 to February 2014 (see graph). Of course, some people have more than 1 CPU so it's hard to know how many holders there are.

You cant come here and ask for all this proof and have non yourself. If this is the case just stop and put it to rest. Go back to the Monero thread and leave this be.

Let's say I made a coin along with a bunch of developers, developed it in secret for 2 years all the while mining it for testing purposes, then released it to the public. Are you going to trust my coin too? I guess you will, won't you! You can't prove I premined it, after all!

Guess what, normal people can NEVER prove premines, they can only give evidence for one. They can, however, prove within all reasonable doubt that something WASN'T premined.
If you think someone needs to prove it, you're wrong, that's not the point. It's not hysterics, it's logic.

Get real.


Great news, everyone!

LTC and BTC mining was added to Minergate pool

Stay informed.
FANTASTIC! Now we can mine BTC and LTC with 10% fees!

Is there any plan to add graphical wallet ?

Yes it is being worked on.

It's almost May,8th and there is no BCN on comkort exchange.

I doubt it would change in 3 hours. Furthermore, there are some problems with other coins on the exchange because according to the site blockchain is stuck

We disabled all operations for this coins due to blockchain stuck.

IMO they are going to delay it for a week again. Hope to see BCN asap.

I don't think that it's related with blockchain.

I'm not an expert, but maybe connection takes such a long time because the BCN protocol and the high-level API differ from all other coins. These coins are clones BTC and LTC anyway. I don't know how the X11 works.

I have a question...
Again, I'm not techno-geek, but even for me https://bytecoin.org/ looks not the best way it can. 

Can anybody hear help them with that?!!

It's the great idea! Jurassic Site, rrr!  Grin Grin Grin

We can mirror the site, for example. I'm not sure, honestly... I can propose a new contest. But I don't sure that people may make a design site. Huh What are you thinking about?

No thank you. I mine BCN and I hold plenty of BCN so I have the same right to be on this thread as anyone else. Even if I didn't that would still be the case, but I do.

Here's a clue for you. I don't even care that they premined the thing. It might still succeed. But it should be known for what it really is.




Smooth let's create new topic to make some holywar?
I come here to read some interesting news or something like this, but not your hysterics on every page:  "BCN-premine!!1 80% NINJAMINE!!!!!1 But I mine BOTH!!!1 I mine BCN and MRO though BCN is premined!!!!1".
Are you a schoolboy?

Please create a cryptonote blockchain and prove it can be done.

If I have time I will do it. Not that hard. But I'm busy doing useful things. If someone else wants to do the actual work of generating it, I will explain in private the (tiny) specific code changes required.

EDIT: Also, you have just defined a premine. If a group of people mines a 80% of a coin in secret without detection before releasing it to the public, that is exactly a premine, by definition. What else do you call it?

Just cause you dont know, doesnt make it secret.
Check my previous post, it was edited.

Okay so your theory is that it was around "somewhere" but wasn't called bytecoin. I doubt this simply because the cryptography involved is novel and interesting enough it would have been reported and discussed (as is happening now) regardless of what it was called.

You can easily resolve this by providing proof, or at least the tiniest bit of evidence that this bytecoin-by-another-name exists.
