The technology seems interesting, but the name choice is terrible. What self respecting dev would ripoff not one, but two other coins? That doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

you can blame Azeh on this

I actually liked it, BTCD makes bitcoin itself dark, actually makes sense
of course I came onboard after seeing the call for volunteers and it all sort of came together
I am sorry you dont like the name, no need to buy it. I know a lot of people are making investment decisions based on name, but I prefer some other metrics. That's just me

Im not bothered about the name but I do think it was a little uninventive.

Nevermind. Searched the thread and found some nodes.

Good man!

... the OP really does have most of what you need to answer the initial questions about BTCD.

Is there another place to download the Windows wallet other than the mega link? The link isn't working and I want to move the coins I bought off the exchange.

Thanks

I am uploading it for you with dropbox.

I have uploaded the windows wallet here.
it is the original as I have downloaded it from the OP on July 14

so basically if i had 10grand in btcd, if i leave my comp on 24/7 ill gain a dollar a day. hardly worth the power bill? am i missing something?>

I think 10k btcd will give you around 1.4btcd and that's around $7
Of course I am not sure. I think 7300 BTCD = 1 coin per day

Sorry, I'm noob, but 10K BTCD is 100 BTC on the current prices ...

So, I need invest 100 BTC to earn $7/day? That's nonsense ...

Anyways, sempyper said: "i had 10grand in btcd", but I think we can buy only 2100 BTCD for 10K USD at the moment.

By staking 2100 BTCD, we can earn only 0,2898 BTCD/day (2100x0,000138).

It seems for me that the real winners of the staking are the early birds, who bought big sum of coins for peanuts ...

As the coin becomes more and more expensive in time, the late buyers will earn only pennies ...

Can someone convince me opposite, please?

/sorry for my poor english/

That's staking. It's the interest you get. 5% per year.
BTCD value over bitcoin changes daily. when 1BTCD = 0.1 BTC then just staking = $70 per day

not 100% sure

No need to convince anyone. It's a cryptoCURRENCY. Does holding dollars in your wallet get you anything? Nope.
Plus, BTCD aims to work alongside other coins, no as a coin so much.

Does BTCD need any music written for it? I'm a good producer and singer and love this coin, and the devs.

James, I have a few btcd addresses in my wallet. each staking at different time.
Can I put all the coins in one address so they will stake together?
I know I can't send coins from one address to another in the same wallet. ( I have tried that with another altcoin and coins stack for ever as unconfirmed)
Should I remove wallet.dat from wallet folder, create a new wallet.dat, get the new address, then put the old wallet.dat and send the coins to the new one?
any other options?

thanks

I have found a slightly higher effective rate of staking by splitting, so not sure why you want to consolidate.
After you get a block, then it takes a while for it to get back to full strength, so you do get a big chunk when it does, but it is not full power for some time (not sure how long)

With 10 different addresses, only 10% gets weakened at a time.

I havent analyzed this deeply, just fiddling with my own wallet, what matters is the daily average perc, at least for me

thanks.
I think addresses with more coins stake faster and give higher payments. So, if I put all of the coins together it might be different.

Actually no. Because your coins accumulate coinage while not getting interest/staking a block u only need to stake once a while (days, weeks, montha etc) and still get your interest for the whole duration.
Sending or receiving coins will reset your coinage though.

Staking 24/7 will give you more then the base 5% because you get the tx fees of the block and compound interest on top
