This is not true. CBX is still a hybrid - both PoS and PoW. Not sure about active mining pools but hopefully some of the miners chime in here to assist?

PoS only will occur once the PoSP algorithm is implemented (scheduled for 4th quarter of 2015) - so the PoW miners still have some time.

Thanks for the replies. I'm still wanted to get in on CBX mining if someone could point me to a pool, Please. I'm small-time and not a farm. I know sometimes that helps to know so you miners don't think I'm coming in to over-power anyone. Responses?

Thank You

Not trying to be a wet rag here or dampen the enthusiasm but i feel i have to mention this as i see potential for bter to exploit people voting here, i stopped using bter seriously some time ago as i simply don't trust that exchange anymore (several tickets unresolved, they got hacked, they got hacked again Roll Eyes

, bitbay scam, FIAT lost/stuck there).

You mentioned the downvoting so feel i should point out the possibility for BTER manipulating voters here - eg owners see coins being voted on and downvote to milk trades/btc out of their users.

imho a better chinese altcoin exchange to target would be btc38, which has much higher volume by comparison and a better reputation.

Well the more exchanges CBX is listed on, the more help with awareness for our Cryptobullion. But you are absolutely right, we are contacting http://btc38.com/ about getting listed there too.

looks like we earn a lot of down-votes in bter guys...let's keep up voting...

raizor thanks for update

Yeah - I put in my 100-120 votes daily. We are still winning (going up) - I suggest that nobody from CBX downvote the leader... 1 extra vote for CBX = good for CBX, 1 downvote for leader = good for every other coin; so downvoting isn't worth it

Hello,

I just stumbled on this thread and thought it interesting. Will someone tell me if CBX can still be mined & where? The pools listed don't seem to have active websites.

Thx much!

Hello all,

I just wanted to post a little development update

We've had some internal discussions relating to release schedules and have decided to prepare an intermediate release, to be released before the PoSP changes. This small update will contain the IRC chat functionality, new and updated translation sets (including Chinese) and a small tweak to avoid a false positive with VirusTotal for the IRC code. We feel that these changes are worth pushing out early as they will help as in our efforts to break into the Chinese markets. The majority of this work is already done (save for a few small IRC chatwindow bugs), so the release should be ready very soon (in a week or so hopefully). This wallet will not have any network changes, so there won't be a fork until we roll out stage 1 of the PoSP changes.

I'll keep you posted as we release approaches. Thanks everyone!

cheers,

raizor

Thank you for the update raizor! Looking forward to IRC and practicing Mandarin!

Things like merged mining reduces the wastefulness of it, To prevent centralization things like ziftr's proof of knowledge could be forced so a person has to run a full node. Especially since POS coins require the miner to sign with their own key its even easier to force it than with POW only coins.
I'm mainly busy with my pool, betarigs and on occasion a number of other coins i help out with. Its nice to see CGB still doing well after all this time.

Ahmed

Glad to see your still around Ahmed and again, very much appreciate your support and feedback. You and your input are always welcome here

1) Not wasteful. It is the ONLY algorithm which facilititates a fair distribution of coins
2) Also isnt centralised when changes are made to force such
3) Is as secure as anything else

Ahmed

1) Good point, however, we have long ago completed the distribution stage.
2) What changes do you propose to avoid centralization from mining farms and pools?
3) This is dependent on applied hashrate. As far as CBX is concerned, PoSP will encourage far more security via active staking than PoW.

BTW, Ahmed - blast from the past! Haven't seen your name in years. What are you up to nowadays??

Sorry but removing POW imo will just make CBX another fad shitcoin. Sad to see a good coin become such

1 Vote here for keeping POW Running

AhmedBodi

Thank you for the vote, it is appreciated, but we will be removing PoW. Pardon my bluntness, but is wasteful, facilitates centralization and frankly will never be as secure as PoSP.
