That's your thread finshaggy, and I agree it's better if it's done on a different thread.  What a nightmare to have to send to so many address.  You don't seem to mind. lol...seriously, can I send you the 100,000 devcoins since this is your original idea as far as I can tell and you can give them out to the first 100 guys.

but guys, go to the board finshaggy just liked to and post your wallet and the first 100 will get 1,000 devcoins each.  that way it's better cause you're likely to recognize names that have come back for thirds and fourths.  lol

give me your wallet and I'll go vircurex and take out 100,000.  man that makes me feel rich and generous but i'm neither.  ha.

yes separate threads would be better I think. On the coin, unless you designed all that artistry yourself you may as well stop now. You can't take likely copied work/images and then utilise as open-source. Also, this is of course just my opinion, but I'd rather be blunt and save you some time and effort to expend on other things - but I don't like the design and I doubt many others will. It's too busy. At this point devcoin just needs to get the ball rolling on a simple recognisable logo/coin design.

Re-posting this as lost in the 5000 msgs since. Please add your ideas/feedback as a good homepage for devcoin is quite important.

Somehow ppl dont read, thats why i write it in big letters:

DEVDA.CH does not interact with YAHOO, HOTMAIL or AOL
out of security reasons.

Thanks for understanding!

I received the last devcoin address, so I asked Mark to make the receiver files. I also sent 23 devcoins to everyone that has not received generation devcoins before and has given me a devcoin address, from the newbie file:
https://raw.github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/master/newbie.csv

so they can check that their address is correct. Please check that your devcoin address is getting 23 devcoins; if someone is not getting them, tell me immediately and if we get that information within a day we'll check the address and generate a new receiver file. Since everyone confirmed that their address is correct, it is unlikely that any of the addresses are wrong, this is just a final check.

I wasn't attacking you in any sort of way, you didn't accuse me of such but I am just clarifying. I get on here after school/work so reading through long posts like that before writing or trading or firing up the miner takes precious time away from those things. Giving away DVC is relevant in my opinions because it is helping to boost the economy. I too plan on starting a faucet when I get paid next month, after I invest in a decent mining rig. It's good to see someone new who is so enthused about the whole thing, just try to keep your posts short, concise, and to the point if you don't mind.

1. Awesome idea.
2. You should make your own thread, or post about it here:

I think 100 wallets would be a good new amount

Mods, let me know if it's best to open a new thread and link this portion to that thread so we don't get however many posts with people's account on this thread.  I'm still learning all this stuff and didn't realize some people get upset at non-relevant posts which I think giving away devcoins is.

I have to step out but I'll check back later. 

Some feedback please, would it be best to do just the first 25 new accounts as 100 is to many or is 100 better to reach more people.  There's 100,000 devcoins total.

It's worth the effort, it's work after a few days but definitely worth it if devcoin becomes something the way I feel it will.

I'll make a list of the first 25 or whatever wallets we determine to get the reward and I'll do them all at once so I don't have to keep logging into my vircurex account.

That and I don't want to use my laptop to log in since I use it for too much online work and seeing how one guy on here already got a keylog virus I no longer log into my account using this laptop.  So instead I'll write them all down and do it all at once, probably tomorrow. 

Thanks for opening a devcoin wallet, you'll be glad you did. 

And now you'll have something in it. 

Good to know, I see your point and I'll make a strong effort to minimize all my posts.  Thanks for the feedback.

Cool concept I may try out the freelance writing.  I just downloaded the wallet my DVC address is:

1HGto3UGVqgTMho9jTaQ3Yxi3DicDuQWNm

I just read a post by finshaggy where he outlined a bunch of ways to get the word out on devcoin. Most people are only focusing on bitcoin cause the value is so high not realize that the true potential is in coins like devcoin.  So I guess the first step in getting people actively in buying and mining devcoins is to get them to open up a devwallet.  


One of the suggestions on the list was to give away devcoins to people who open new devcoin wallets.  I know finshaggy already gave away a bunch of coins already, 60,000 I think I saw on a thread he started or maybe it grew, but I'll like to pitch in.  

Devcoin and Devtome gave me a great opportunity to earn coins and I was really amazed at that generosity cause there's simply no business out there that will let you show up and do the work you can and pay you in shares.  Can you imagine showing up at Nike and helping out and walking out with Nike shares?  I can't and that's what's amazing about devcoin.

It's this kind of thoughtful generosity, if practiced by everyone involved, can really help devcoin reach new heights and gain a big competitive advantage over every other digital coin out there, for nowhere can you and get free coins just for opening a new dev wallet.

I earned  some devcoins via writing last round but haven't been paid yet but I did buy some devcoins several times over the past 2 weeks so I have quite a few coins.  Well, not a lot value wise, but a lot number wise.

So I want to propagate the same generosity which was shown to me by giving away 100,000 devcoins from my vircurex account, which will hopefully work.

I'm not sure how to do this for optimal effect.  While I think 1,000 coins per new wallet would be the best way that would mean I have to send out coins 100 different times and I don't know how long it will  take.  If it's an easy thing to do then that's probably the best way, if not  then I'll do the first 25 NEW accounts.

I'm not gonna verify so let's have a gentleman's agreement that if you already opened an account and at some point got some reward that you won't submit it here for a second one.  And it doesn't necessarily have to be new as opened in the last 5 minutes although I would prefer if it were for people who will open a new account because of this offer since that's the whole point, to get more people actively buying, mining or earning devcoins.  

Let's get some feedback from people who have done this to setup the best and easiest parameters.  And maybe also start a new thread so I don't get put on ignore by everyone.


All feedback is appreciated.

Yes. I agree. At times it takes me almost an hour to catch up because of those long ass posts. It gets quite irritating.

I just quit reading the long ones from Vlad. I just skip over them, or read a couple of sentences and conclude that it has no relevance to the devcoin project or devtome. Or if it does and its tl&dr I can usually find someone who quoted the small piece worth reading so I don't have to find it.

No, it's a coin I put together.

devcoin has a secret design a new coin contest.  I say secret because it seems full members and higher have no idea about it.

Here's what I know.


The contest lasts until they get 15 entry coins.

You get I think 2/5 of a share for the entry

First place gets I think 4 shares

Second I think 2 shares

Third place 1 share

The winning coin will be the new face and coin of devcoin but of course you lose all rights to it and they can do to it anything they want.  I tried to fight for 1% ownership but there's just no way.  I'm not an artist in any way which is why it took me entire days to just put together the coin you're seeing and i'm still working on the final image since I have to finish the whole thing and replace the center image to something made from scratch which will include dvc.

Thanks for asking, most don't know there's a contest which is part of the reason I put my coin up.  All these giant coin images might have annoyed some but it sure got the message out that there's a contest so now maybe there will be many more entrants and maybe some with real artistic talent.  I can imagine things like images but I have no artistic talent to get them out of my head.  lol

i got tons of ppl on my ignore list, all those with tomany useless posts, its a good ruleset for using the ignore function after doing this for some days/weeks you will only see posts worth reading (those who arent worth count how many of which person, if tomuch ignore too) and so on

I even totally ignored this function...

thanks, the world suddenly became clean and clear

I didn't know you could ignore just pages.  sorry, I would have ignore the ones with the huge coins myself.  that was done by accident.  I thought 720K was small since I cropped it down from an original 13 megs.

Maybe you're not aware of this but devcoin has a design a new contest and there is no special thread for it and they haven't even gotten 15 coins submitted yet because I think most don't know about it.

So I think talking about any new coins people are putting up or answering questions are not newbie junk but important.  afterall, the new coin which wins the contest will be the face of devcoin.  devcoin is a coin, a digital coin, it is what it is, what it sells and what it stands for.  

Quite relevant.

there is a ignore button, i already had some pages here with all posts ignored lol

Are you talking about uploading to bitcointalk or to devtome?

Thanks, I just learned how to cut down the image.  Please remove the really big ones, they annoy me let alone everyone else.  Sorry and thanks.

And I'll stop posting images of my coin.  I just wanted some feedback and perhaps inspire others to make something totally different than what the other coins have but got a bit carried away joking around.
