I'm looking to buy Coinye. Does anyone have any and want to sell?
The network died long ago.
I still have my wallet.dat saved from back when I mined COYE. Not sure if there's a way to check the balance without a working wallet that can make connection to any active peers. Even if you were to find someone with a balance, chances are transaction would stay stuck forever.
Just had a look at the first page of this thread, and it seems like I was able to sneak in a post on the first page lol. Crazy times those were.
forgive my ignorance, perhaps, but how does the network die, though? Theoretically, as long as there is one miner, the network is up, no? Community seems to be dead, but the gay-ish faucet on Twitter seems to still be working. I encounter a problem with the wallet app, though. I downloaded the software, and it's telling me it's not syncing.
That seems to be the issue, there are no miners hence no blocks are being processed. Without any blocks there can't be any transactions. Last I checked (a couple years ago), I couldn't find any active peers.
Can you link me to the gayfish faucet on Twitter? I am interested in checking that out.
Here you go:
https://twitter.com/GayFishBot. I managed to receive Coinye — I think at least. My wallet software can't sync, but the bot responded. Maybe only the Twitter bot still works and the underlying Coinye software it's connected to doesn't.
It'd be fun to revive this, though. How he destroyed Coinye is literally the plot of the South Park episode that inspired Coinye, but I don't think Kanye really want to sue the project to death. That move seemed to be like how he ran his presidential campaign. People around him not saying no to him because there's money, prodding him along, taking advantage of his mental illness. For the law firm involved in the Coinye suit, it was an opportunity for them to flex. They are boasting about how they protected kanye against coinye. Like that Britney documentary, we need to #FreeKanye, and to do that, we need to #FreeCoinye
