Topic: Bottlecaps 2.1 UPDATE REQUIRED - HARDFORK JULY 4 2014 to 200% Annual PoS - page 142. (Read 388610 times)

Sustainer-bot now active... (For lack of something better to call it.)

I only have 4 BTC to play with, as the rest is on hold for trading, so I can make more money to buy more to trade. (Oh, the irony of palindromes.)

When I get more free time, I will make my bot more aggressive. However, aggression usually just drains my wallet. xD I would rather give people a reason to trade, and/or hold, while expanding the disposable-loss market to a consumer-base.

At the moment, only about 0.00003500 and lower is safe... On the high side, 0.00012000 is safe for walls. (I won't buy over $0.10 per coin until I have some definitive path for the coin. Just don't expect me to buy everyone's coins for life!

15K... That's a decent wall... Someone has got to be cashing-out on all the low buys they got, or they were easy-mined or easy-trades. Well, now they are not around to haunt us. Sell wisely if you must, but you might want to wait for BTC's next big peak. I smell $3000 coming around the corner. I keep seeing listings of 10K BTC buy-walls, all pushing up. (Pumping?) Though, $3000 is the next realistic high, by miners-debt. xD

P.S. BTC is creepy right now... sooo still... It is like there is a lion ready to jump on prey, and I can't tell if it is going to devour USD or devour BTC... It's like a stale-mate. Whoever lists the largest volume first, is going to loose the bull-bear war. I am actually afraid to place a buy order, or a sell order for BTC. (And that never scares me. I make money going up or down.)

15k coins.

That's OK, I am buying... got some BTC from GOX finally showing back Cryptsy. I am still having trouble with the chart, and my bot hasn't been watching since cryptsy upgraded the new hardware and trade-code. Wait, 15K as in $$$ or coins?

How high was your wall? Since the charts got buggy because cryptsy made everyone relist orders, the coins have been bot-sniped to hell. lol. I will put my anti-bot back online when I buy more BTC again.

Has a nice ring to it. Definitely need to drop the bottle portion regardless imo.


Someone just dumped > 15k in one go, took my mini wall in 1 shot

My prior post was not to you... There was another block-crawler that was a dead link. (Like your format a little more.)

So is there any more input about rebranding, or against rebranding... I really need an answer with permanence, before I spend time and money on a website and actual marketing.

If we neutralize it to just CAP, that can allow secondary marketing and image, keeping the coin-machine as just that... a coin generator, wallet, and method of delivery. (If the GUI could be skinned, that would be a big bonus.)

A digital bank, without the wait!

And that VPS just came up as I was typing the last response...

http://cap.cryptocoinexplorer.com/

Hopefully they are done with the upgrades on the VPS hosting side.

The CCE3 explorer (cap.cryptocoinexplorer.com) has only been down for a couple of hours...geesh  

The CCE explorers have had issues at various times today due to some upgrades happening on the VPS hosting end. VPS servers have been up and down (CCE is spread across five).

I do not have control of the VPS hosting, so there is not much I can do about it at the moment, but hopefully the VPS will be back up soon.

I think they actually wanted the "explorer".... that is hardly an explorer. More like a hunt-n-find...

The other one was great, but it disappeared. (Another one of the dead-links.)

I am looking into a PHP charting tool, so I can show some more realistic and useful information for some of these coins. Mostly, I want to show the trade-value with the 10K and 1K and 100 coin volume prices. In USD and BTC. Since one without the other is useless.

Seems the coin likes to be around $0.10 (Which is think is partly psychologically pounded-in by the 1-cent bottle-cap. I would rather see it at $1.00, hedged to BTC and LTC as USD-value.)

That is my goal.

I have turned my initial $2000 into about $4400 in the last few days, trading BTC and other alts. When the price drops again, per BTC, I will swipe-up more BTC to continue buying CAPs. I have thrown-up a small sell-wall, as if it were ever going to get that high in the immediate future... to help ensure the rise doesn't look like a pump again. That erroneous sell of 0.0008 should be off the charts soon enough to begin actually being able to read the values.

I will look into that.

http://bottlecaps.kicks-ass.net/block_crawler.php is up and lists the number of blocks. Shouldn't that be enough?

Just make a new one, if you know how to edit the source code.

Does someone have a copy or a link to a block explorer codebase that works? I could host it.

Created a bit of a buy wall. Should help keep the prices up.

I guess we need a different block explorer.

When I pushed to get it back on coinmarketcap last month, they stated that it was taken down because our block explorer doesn't have the number of blocks found listed.

I added a request to add CAPs to the list.

On a side-note, cryptsy is going through some issues... Be careful if place an order, canceling it may result in the coins not getting "returned", but it will cancel the order. Thus, you may not have coins to trade, until you ask them to audit your account. (Even then, they see your coins in the account, but you don't. So you still can't make trades.)

However, trading seems to work fine.

Why would you cancel an order? Because they erased all the BUY/SELL books, but didn't refund the coins. The only listings you see for coins now, are listings that were made within the last few hours. (Even if you have an old listing/order, it would never sell. (They seem to have created a whole new database for orders, by accident.)

Though, half my canceled orders have come back. My bitcoins are still 0. That is delaying me from buying more coins.

That is also why the charts got screwy... someone listed coins for 0.0000001 and purchased their own coin. Then they listed one for 0.0008 and purchased it. (That turned the spread high, making the real values look like a nice flat line. lol.)

Why isn't CAP on coinmarketcap.com?

Ready for the next big BTC hike? Don't get scared if alts drop slightly... You have to keep tabs on the dollar-value of 1000 alts, compared to BTC, to see the value.

Caps went higher than I expected. Time for me to slow-down my buying. lol. My damn bots almost made me bankrupt!

And to think, a month ago I purchased 2 x-box 360 games for 0.5 BTC... Ouch. That guy made hundreds off of me! Was only $120 for 0.5 BTC a month ago. Now that is like $600, or $300 per game! (Shipping included, lol.)

The big question is... Should I keep buying coins or buy another mining rig. (It is getting cold outside, but buying coins is faster and easier. )

Still waiting for any more input about rebranding this coin. (The low-impact rebranding, not the full cross-dressing rebranding to a phantasmal cliché-coin.)

Nice to see some heavy moves on CAPs today... Boggles my mind actually.

Bots got smarter. They are no-longer insta-listing small amounts. Guess they realized people actually want to buy larger volumes, all at once. Not play the 1/100th of a penny game. xD (Some are still insta-listing, but at wider spreads and half-volumes. Since they realize it is unavoidably going back up. Now if BTC falls, all these coins will sling-shot to the high positions they once were, a few months ago. Hope you are mining while the DIFF is still low! Future mine, ignore the price now... Think about what it will be in the next month, with those new coins out of the hands of insta-dumpers!)

P.S. Invest in Chinese Yuan (CNY), not USD... Double your returns, because USD is dropping fast. (We need Yuan to pay our debt, they are not accepting USD. Well, they are, but at 1/3rd the value of USD. Since this is now a major Chinese market. Obviously, they are creeping into all the ALT-Coins now too. All alts on the rise, and BTC = your USD value falling.)

P.P.S. Move your BTC positions up above $1300... Trust me, it will sell. Buy them back when it drops back down to $800 in a month, on a panic-sell. When the holidays hit, it will spike again.

P.P.P.S. CAPs to 0.00009000... soon... Just saying... (That is ~1000 coins for ~$116... How many coins can you mine in a day? I still hit 2000-6000, depending on how-many miners I dedicate to CAPs, at this diff.)

At this rate, I might start building more miners. The ROI just dropped from 1 year to about 3 months!

Time to tell all your friends how easy it is to get into. Convince them to buy one or two or three 7970's or 7990's, which they can use for gaming later, or sell to other miners. (I have a feeling that someone is going to release a major scrypt overhaul soon. That code is not as optimized as it could be. This I say because there is one set of code which gives a gain of about 25%, over the one used in cgminer, but it is custom, at the moment for lite-coin. Also, there is a 7970 custom bios that "allegedly", used with a FPGA, produces almost 10x what the cards generic bios does. Might be why someone out there is able to just dump coins so cheap. It costs them a fraction of the energy to make them.)

By the way, "Power Color HD Radeon 7970 OC Edition" is the best card I have setup. It easily runs at 700Khs, without special cooling, if you have the power. However, I still run all of mine at a modest 550-650Khs, where they are most "efficient" with my power-supplies. (6 cards running at 600Khs is about 1200 Watts at the wall on 120v, including the CPU power. That would be about 980 Watts with 240v and a better PSU.)

Mullick,

The alt-coin race is obviously on, and I think CAP is not visible enough on people's radar.

CAP need to be at least back on http://coinmarketcap.com

Is it something that is in your power to push for?

Thx.
