Great work,

confirmations is 25 blocks for PoW/PoS minted block, 6 for a regular transaction

All time high was 55977 satoshis (if you don't take into consideration the small pump to 78800 satoshis) and the supply was about 4224050 HBN at that period

OK thank you Cheesy

Also another thing you could fix is that HBN was actually cloned from bottlecaps - which is a clone of novacoin. Since bottlecaps had no original innovation beyond nova, it is probably fair to say it was cloned from nova.

Here is the first draft of the Hobonickel section of my book called Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative"  Please say if there are any mistakes or missing pieces of information or history.

I plan to get this book published this summer.  Please donate towards the project - Exe8wnqtA6y9kd1nrRg6Jx65NRZZ3btPWu

Hobonickels will have its own section in my book called Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative".  Here is the template of the first page:



The bitcointalk thread for my future publication is:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cryptocurrency-the-alt-ernative-beginners-reference-book-483187


Any donations towards this project are welcome - Epiz3qXN9ACa443nng1bBaDhLBntZvaZqj

Awesome, look forward to seeing your finished work. Let us know if you have any technical questions that need to be clarified.

I cannot find any information on block halvings.  Does the block reward halve for HBN?

No it doesn't Smiley

OK do you know when Proof of Work ends?  I need help on how the coins are mined, minted throughout time lol

never. it will always be a hybrid PoW/PoS coin.

It started 5 HBN per block, still is, and will be.  What should happen is that PoS will take over simply because more coins will be available to stake, but nothing has been implemented to remove PoW.  hope this helps

OK thanks Cheesy  I am about to post the whole HBN first draft section of my book on this thread.

Ouch that price is getting too low.

This gives the opportunity to new investors to join in. I still think HBN is undervalued so at this price, it's a steal.

I believe 3 things happened almost simultaneously that affected the price in the downtrend.

1. HBN hits all time High of 50k (not taking into consideration the ~80k sat pump) made some people cash out at these levels
2. Tranz involvement in CAP made a lot of people jump on that train (because CAP is even more undervalued).
3. BTC rally up made some longterm investors cash out to enjoy BTC's new high price.


Nothing that affects the quality or reputation of the coin/community or long term potential. Purely markets natural movements (given, this one felt like a downhill rollercoaster)

At least this is how I see it!

Pretty much spot on, could still see a lower down-trend in the immediate short term but as soon as we hit bottom support(in around 1 week+) I predict a sharp up-trend/spike, as long as it corresponds with other factors in the coming weeks. This is also somewhat dependant on the stage of Cap development as well.

May the force bit with you.
Difficulty has risen from 8 to 17 within the last 12 hours or so, while the price has been slightly declining. Litecoin hashing power has not changed during the same time, so no influx of ASICs.
This is not normal.
Any thoughts about this?
Is it more likely some kind of attack or is it an individual with lots of hashing power, who wants to earn Hobonickels via Mining instead of buying?


Hmm good observation. PoW attacks are probably hard to accomplish on HBN. First of all PoS/PoW hybrid adds an extra layer of security. Also the PoW diff adjusts every block, so it isn't going to be as easy for someone to come hash out a lot of blocks quick.  Hard to know why such a quick and large rise in hash rate.

No attack(that I can see), just someone or pool with large hash rate coming on board.  Difficulty is adjusting prefectly to keep the 30sec PoW/PoS in line. They got a few quick ones at the beginning but not more then a few hundred hbn, before the diff adjusted correctly.

Tranz, a feature request:

"Stacked this month":

My goal is to sell 25% of my staking every month. But calculating this is not easy since you get several stakings very fast.
the "Stacked this month" entry would isolate stacking from 1st of month to end of month (technically, not exactly 30 days, but easier to handle). From there, I could easily calculate 25% of it.

Improvement: replace "Stacked this month" with "Stacked this period" and let the user choose the start and stop date.

This would continue to make the HBN wallet one of the best!
Thank you

(presstab, if you can do this for TEK, I'd be happy too)

On the list of things to do, but have other higher priority things at the moment.

Hey David, you already have the option of choosing the time frame of the period.

You should have predefined ranges of "All", "Today", "This Week", "This Month", "Last Month", "This Year" and finally "Range..." witch enables a selecting calendar



And from there it's easy to export that list to a spreadsheet and do your calcs,  you can remove the orphans before exporting or use a formula on the spreadsheet for not including the orphans in your calculations.

EDIT: yes stakeforcharity could be a way of doing it. Just know that

  • you can only send MAX 50% of each stake to a specified address.
  • You can setup only one receiving address per wallet (.dat file)
  • you have to setup stakeforcharity on every wallet startup (maybe this could be improve to be "shutdown resistent" but it might be tricky to do for security reasons.)
  • stakeforcharity will send the percentage defined right after a successful stake has been confirmed and matured. So you need to have it configured before your coins stake or it will not send the defined percentage (it makes senses but still good to clarify out).  So you need to remember to always check if it is active (especially if you open/close your client often)

This got me thinking.
In the MultiBit BTC client you can export you transaction list to .csv - But you can't filter your transaction list
in the HBN client you can select "This Week" "This Month" or Date Range etc. and filter transaction type... But you can't C&P or export the entire transaction list.
Even if you select all the transactions it will only copy the first date cell.

Would be a handy feature and having a sub total box for coin flow in the selected period might be the icing?

David
I believe you can use stakeforcharity to siphon off a percentage of your stakes to another address but that might not do exactly what you are looking for.



**EDIT hahaha wow well I never did see that button hiding up there ...
talk about selective blindness.

I have some 'generated but not accepted' messages of failed staking.
Is there a way to remove those, or set to invisible or something?
They are so annoying by taking up all the space in recent transactions.

thnx


never mind, I tried repair wallet, which fixed it  Roll Eyes

Yep, repairwallet is the correct thing to do.
