all coins are down-- its a Bear market

I'm lost dazed and confused as to why iXcoin isn't trading higher given the latest developments.  People want proof which I get but so many coins go up a lot just based on news of coming wallet updates.  And we have soooo much more coming.

iXcoin appears to be trending slightly up again over the last ten days.  Hopefully it's the start of a larger move.

I don't see how pump and dumps would be cleared due to no fees. 

Also, how is inflation and dilution better than reasonable fees?  Isn't that what paper fiat is right now?

And I wouldn't have to keep my client open for anything.  I could simply run it for a few hours per month to collect my interest and then shut it down and go hide back in cold storage again.

I see no good solution to avoiding small fees. 

They will work for free to protect their coins or run their business.  vircurex has a ixc exchange because that is how they make money.  IXC, is merged mined thus needs no incentive to mine.  We will see in the next few years.  If you have a large stake in ixc you have an incentive to keep a client open to protect your investment.  It is also a good way to clear out the pump and dumps asap.

If bitcoin had no mining reward and it deleted transactions with pos the long term security would actually be higher than today.

How is that even a possibility?  How will miners securing the chain be paid?  Would you work for free?
I don't have a single miner so I have nothing to gain from fees but I understand no crypto can ever work without some form of a reward system which for IXC will be fees.

We can fight to keep the fees low while Bitcoin's fees sky rocket higher than the most expensive credit cards.  That's the best we can hope for and I think it's a fair, win-win, solution.

The transaction fee is necessary to prevent spamming the chain which has already been done. If there was a 0.1 transaction fee, the block would be small like peercoin.

Thinking back the whole idea of mining coins is a horrible idea.  Mining rewards do not protect a coin, the community must protect the coin as a choice.  Thus to end mining should win Nasakioto an award.  The 2nd award he should get is the idea of using bounties to attract people to do certain things for the site.  Some of the artwork you can find for IXcoin came from bounties.   Although most have disappeared, that is the way to do it.

now if we can only delete the transaction fee we will be #1.

Delete what block rewards?  Block rewards are now ZERO so there is nothing to delete.

Bitcoin has a minimum transaction fee of .001 so I don't see why IXC can't have one but maybe at first we should not make it mandatory in order to accelerate adoption.

As for deflation; it too, just like inflation, greatly enriches the rich elite at the painful cost of the middle and lower class.

Austerity works but once again, at the pain and suffering of those who have the least to spare.  But given we will soon see massively destructive inflation all accross the world, a deflationary policy [which Bitcoin does not currently have but IXC truly does] could be a very popular feature and a benefit many investors will search out.

The best update Ixcoin can do is delete all block rewards, yet require a mandatory transaction fee.  deflations and austerity lead to growth, while inflation, and growth of money supply leads to tyranny.

Very good point.  I never thought of that.  So if some regulation or tax laws came down which put the squeeze on miners to the point that many dropped out (in those countries), then iXcoin may be exempt because there is no more block reward.  Few other coins could say that.  Of course that assumes transaction fees collected by miners would be regulated differently than block rewards.   If not, then iXcoin would still be hit by the same regulation.

One scenario would be if block rewards were deemed un-lawful because they are money creation events, usually reserved for governments.  There was much speculation about this when Bitcoin first came on the scene.  Transaction fees would be exempt since they are taken from the existing money supply.   This scenario may be a bit of stretch since governments would probably be more likely to just forbid cryptos all together, but perhaps they will just want to restrict thousands of new ones from coming into existence, while keeping the existing ones.   Or they may just want to restrict the total crypto money supply.   Lot's of possible scenarios.

strongly recommend using only the 9.3 version by ground rod, if you can't compikle his source or trust his build which was verified by myself or others , look back about 10 pages and there is a nice stable build i am using and released that is compatable with 9.1 bitcoin.

my wallet generally gets 20 -25 connections after 15 minutes or so , i use the addnodes on ixcoin.org that Vlad listed there in the 9.x section

mostly everyone on the network is running the version from years ago !! lol

i spent a lot of time getting the 8.x version to work right and fixing some things with it, but the 9.x is your best bet.

always keep a backup of your wallet /keys ect...... 


funny thing about iX is it has lovers, haters, and everything in between, 

one thing I like about it is it has paid it's dues , for a long time, 

there was a time when I was a bit critical of it for one reason or another but as Vlad mentioned it has held up in many ways that tell me it has some strong support from a lot of people with resources to make things happen. 

i think whoever coded this up knew exactly what they were doing, and planned it very carefully

i have learned a lot from studying the merged mining parts of the code and if regulation comes into play in the world of crypto iX
has one thing very few other coins have or maybe no other coins have.......

there is no mining, that can be taken out of the picture.......

besides between myself and a few others who hang here if it did get dropped from the merged mining we certainly have the skills to fork it and take it over, the difficulty would not be 19 billion but again it could be done,   hopefully that won't be necessary since I think someone has this on auto pilot,


if not we have enough skilled people involved to take it over from here.......

also if anyone has coins to dump please sell them , if the price were to go down i might pick a few up  /cc

Thanks that worked

Thanks for your reply. But I tried all that things and nothing helped...

Either version should work if you're not mining.  If mining then 0.8.6 is the most tested.

Version 0.8.6
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ixcoin-ng/files/iXcoin/ixcoin-0.8.6/beta/

Version 0.9.2.1
https://github.com/GroundRod/IXCoin/releases

addnodes are here if you can't find peers
http://www.ixcoin.co/?page_id=21

no

Did you find some connection in the meantime?

yup, those are the exchanges i speak of. you are deluded by your greed. carry on.
and i already said i don't 'dump' i just send 'em to oblivion, never to be found again 

Toy exchanges?

You mean like Cryptsy, the largest alt trading exchange on earth?

Or CEX.io, the richest, most powerful pool on earth?

Or iXcoin's very own dedicated exchange, iXco.in, something no other alt-coin has?

When Bitcoin was at 3 cents it could only dream of doing what iXcoin has thus far accomplished.

Hurry and dump your iXcoin, I dare ya!
