There will be much to promote shortly.
Been watching the progress on V3 and what's really impressive is the way ahmed, xawksow, and samson work together. These guys have amazing talent individually, but what's really beautiful is the way their talents compliment each other's. I really think the V3 release is going to be something special, but more importantly, that's just the beginning!

what can ya do! fwiw worldcoin has been acting sketchy lately, it has 4x the number of coins minted as DGC yet the price is about the same. has more volume too.
DGC lacks marketing, maybe we should do a PR stunt or something silly.

Maybe its time to rekindle the DGC vs WDC rivalry. That might liven things up around here.WDC is for sissies!
It's a shame, but you're right, it seems like drama, insults, and arguements, is what gets attention around here. There were so many critics and haters, and a lot of activity. Now that there's nothing to criticize or complain about, they've all gone to troll elsewhere it seems.

well if it were something to implement we could do it whenever, going full PoS would have to happen after many years. But it seems to be the trend even among altcoins that aren't pump n dumps.

PoS is sound, and might be worth considering, but the only conversion to PoS that I've personally followed was rubycoin and that didn't go so well. Perhaps something we could try with Argentum? In fact, with Argentum's higher capacity for data storage in blocks, it would be an ideal coin for samson's work in that area.
With Digitalcoin, I don't think we can reconsider our decisions all the way back to that level. We need to move forward as planned and release Digitalcoin 3.0 in early December and move forward with other projects beyond the technical specifications of the coin.

I know everyone else in the DGC community is sick of hearing me say this but I think implementing PoS would be a good move, if we kept PoW rewards for the next decade or so there'd be nothing scammy about it. It seems to be structurally sound, and would definitely give incentive for people to keep interest in holding the coin.

if i hadn't made the thread you wouldn't have anything to criticize
vote on our reward scheme in Tsquared's thread, or give your opinion on multi-algo or anything else. October 28, 2014, 06:59:26 PM

Digitalcoin is as alive and vibrant as Tennebrix its looking like.

You missed something
October 27, 2014, 03:16:42 PM
Tsquared, I thought it was agreed we'd reduce supply by %66? Or did I miss a meeting?

Looking forward to some opinions on the Digitalcoin block rewards.

My only concern is having a stable hashrate that can withstand your average mining farm. Most PoW coins could easily be compromised, which guarantees they'll never be taken seriously. Merging with BTC/LTC is the most failsafe solution, though we would essentially be forfeiting domain over DGC to people who have no particular interest in it. We should have at least 20gh/s imo, if that can be achieved through merging with coins like Myriad then I'm happy.
Frankly I think implementing an overall turn to proof-of-stake is a good idea, looking at all these pure pos instamined coins it seems to work well enough.

Cosmoo, do you have any opinions on the merge mining proposition I described in my previous post?

The Foundation is concentrating on Digitalcoin at the moment, but Argentum and Securecoin are both on the radar. In fact, the Digitalcoin Foundation official mining pool, poolerrangers.com, is being migrated to a new domain, and will support mining only for DGC, SRC, and ARG.
Most aspects of the V3.0 release have been decided, and much of the work has been done.
An updated QT wallet has been released by xawksow into private beta.
We are constructing a poll to get opinions on block rewards for Digitalcoin. Once the language is decided, we will post publicly to get feedback on multiple forums.
Finally, we are considering a new type of merge mining, and Ahmed is looking at the feasibility. The concept is simple, and a variation of the multi-vPoW standard, but would allow merge mining only by certain coins, not any coin. This is a very interesting concept, and acceptable to the Foundation because it does not put Digitalcoin at the mercy of other coins when it comes to future upgrades.
To the best of my knowledge, selective merge mining has not been done, and Digitalcoin would be the first to implement such a strategy. In preparation for this, we are considering what coins will be authorized to merge mine Digitalcoin, and would love to hear opinions.

the bump delete bump delete bump by cosmoo is a lame way of trying to stay on page1. How about releasing some of that 'coming soon' info instead.
i'm sorry but life is this mundane.
devs are still working on getting a testnet setup. this is volunteer work, not compensated, it'll be ready when they've had enough time to provide a full release. maybe you can bug them in IRC.
Yeah it can be mundane I'll give you that.
Do you know if the foundation has any updates or promotion planned for SRC as well, or just DGC?
