We spent the early part of the week working on our Mac wallet (disaster as it turns our we will need to upgrade our source to at least .9.6 otherwise when we compile the mac wallet it works like a windows program trying to run in a mac environment....slow, crashes) So that's where we are on that.
Bitcoin Core 9.2 based source you mean?
I hope so, your 8.6 wallet is woefully out of date, note the OpenSSL version you are using, heartbleed.
Please, please consider get your developers to add merged mining in the update.
You would have Terrahashes & probably Petahashes securing your network then as BTC mining pools could mine your blockchain at the same time ensuring a long long life for this coin.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Merged_mining_specification Hey coinme we are in the process of upgrading to the latest core as we speak. Almost all of the issues we've had creating the mac wallet are linked to the old core. As far as merged mining goes we may look at implementing this; however, the coin is designed to be difficult to acquire. If gold were easy to get then everyone would have it and it would be worthless.... The rapid adjustment of the difficultly was intentional. Yes it sucks, but it was our intent to this to help stave off the pump N dumpers. As soon as we get close to the update I will post here!! Thanks for the info and keep any ideas and or requests coming!
Yea, the rapid increase in diff definitely sucks for miners like me with little hash (went from making 33 BIG/day to 10 lol). But cool to keep the PnD crowd away...hopefully. Ive been buying/selling BIG on bittrex accumulating more on dips though to offset my soon to be unplugged miners
I guess the increase in diff almost answers one question though dev, what would happen if more (like way more) miners/traders decided they wanted to redeem after the waiting period than have registered or were anticipated? How would that affect the $8million in gold at the end of mining as outlined in the presentation? Valid question as there could be an asic farm just killing blocks only to swap for gold when timing is right.
Also the Reserve Balance Sheet on the website shows there was a deposit needed (should be about 14k in gold in reserve per the presentation) and an order placed on the 19th of August, any ETA or amount of that order?
Keep up the good work dev, really like this coin, and am truly in it for the long haul.
Cheers,
