To do the same, MAR would really need to get on a bigger exchange IMO.

I was just looking over the Bittrex requirements located here:  https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/202583854-Submitting-a-Coin-to-Bittrex

"Note that we cannot list currencies where its primary purpose is to support illegal gambling, illegal drug sales, or any other activity that is illegal in our jurisdiction."

Might be a good thing to remove any mention of buying weed with MAR (from the developers perspective).  Obviously, what people do with the coin is there business, just like any other coin.

Cryptopia is a really nice exchange, but it lacks the volume needed to really make MAR a top coin.

Of course, posting in this thread and community matters. 

Good idea for sure about illegal activities.

And yes about Cryptopia. I like it a lot, but its very low volume.

Lots of movement on MJ coins lately. 4 coins over 3 million market cap now. If MAR were to do the same, today's investors see +3000%

I want to be able to lock up funds inside the wallet, and if you lock them for 12-13 weeks, your eventual stake reward will be higher. A kind of HODL, but more like growing marijuana inside your own wallet.  Cool
This is just a thought, and I'm not sure if this is do-able in this source. So this will take some time to research, and test. Nothing to be excited about. (yet)

edit:
This can be succesful, if we keep PoW. It could be that everyone, or almost everyone locks up their funds for the bigger reward. Through PoW the chain always keeps moving.

Would there be coins that would be locked and regular staking coins in the same wallet?  Or would all the coins in the wallet have to be locked?  Would the coins locked be staking at the same time and if so, wouldn't they be staking and securing the network?

It would be interesting if you could have different types of staking coins in the same wallet.  A sort of multi-stake, if that's what you were thinking.

Make it that the PoW coins go right into the vault for staking.  That would be hilarious.  No dumping of PoW coins!  Not sure the pools would like that though.   Cheesy






Sorry, I can't really tell you much more until I finish implementing this and testing. That would ruin the surprise factor if I do get this of the ground.



It looks like the explorer is holding out better after the resync. It was constantly crashing at one point. I will monitor this, and probably look for a third party explorer as backup.
It would be nice if a community member has good contact with cryptoid. He's not taking any new additions until after summer I read. Undecided

At this point I am also looking into an alternative code change, more info on that when I work that out.


Interesting.  It would be great if you gave us some idea about what you're thinking... keep the conversation going.   Smiley



lol

I dont think its anyone mining and dumping the coins.

I think its Z POOL.

Coz any MAR blocks they mine (and they mine alot!) gets automatically dumped for BTC....for the miners there.

Could that be what the dumping is?


This could very well be possible. Unfortunately PoW mining with the current block reward has a negative effect on Marijuanacoin.



Maybe reducing the PoW reward to .25 and increasing the PoS reward to 1.5 would be a happy medium.  Rewarding holders.  .25 MAR for such a low supply coin I would think is acceptable.

From the specs it looks like newly mined blocks are available after 10 confirms.  Maybe increasing that to 90 or 120 would delay people from instantly dumping?  Might frustrate people who are only mining the coin to dump as they'd have to wait on the confirms.  It wouldn't stop the dumping, but would make it not as simple and easy as waiting 10 minutes to dump.

I defended PoW earlier in this thread as it allows people to get into the coin without having to spend BTC buying the coin.  Though, I do like PoS.  poswallet.com has created an entire business focusing pos coins.  There is a market there for pos coins.  PoS is easy to mine and only requires you have coins in your wallet.  Doesn't get any more simple than that.

I'm up for anything.  This is a lot farther than I expected since the org developer left.



Lowering bock rewards did cross my mind.

Ah wait, I take it back. Dev you will definitely see some of my coins via donation. Especially if you've got the chops to do some unique things with the code. That's exciting for sure.

Oh for sure, things look promising. I'm a realist. Either I'm selling some of my stash one day for incredible profit, buying pounds of weed with it, or going down with the ship. But nobody is seeing any of my coins anytime soon.

The explorer is undergoing a full resync.


Did you decide if you were going to go all PoS or not?

Thread has been too quiet.

Yes, we will go full PoS. I will let PoW roll on for another 2-3 weeks before I release a new client.  Smiley


Sounds good.  That'll be great for people who love PoS.

My 2 cents, don't do it. Keep pow. Miners pulling profit is a natural part of the ecosystem. Yes they're sellers, but it creates volume and trading action, something exchanges like to see. Also constant flow of miner dumps makes placing a buy order a plausible move...and if they dump it back to a 5k market cap, awesome. I'll buy. Also easier to put together bounties and such with a good supply of new cheap coins....There are a lot of POS only coins on the low volume list that maintain a decent market cap, but it's meaningless as there is no one doing any trading.

I get your point. But having about 2000 new MAR mined through PoW alone each day is too much.

2000! Oh yea that is a lot...still maybe not a good idea to go all pos, it can be limiting.

Perfect thanks! I will give that a try. The wallet would do this regardless if I had any other wallets open or not so figured something was updating in the back ground


Add this to your Marijuanacoin.conf :
Code:
chart=0

Not sure if dev can do anything about this but wanted to report it. The windows wallet seems very unstable compared to others. It constantly goes "Not Responding" and if you leave it be it does recover but it tends to hang a lot compared to any other program.

I am running my Wallet on a dedicated machine for Wallets, Windows 10 Intel i3 with 8gb of ram

I am using the latest version the title card is still showing 1.0.0.1

Thanks Smiley




This is because of the charts reloading from time to time. This is a memory consuming task for the wallet. Turning them off will speed up your wallet.

Getting integrated with services like coinpayments and coinomi are also great for promoting of the coin.

https://www.coinpayments.net/
I can only recommend using it for my online shop and would of course also offer MAR as a payment method;)

Coinpayments only accepts coins in the top 150 on coinmarketcap and coins with minimum 3 exchanges. We're not there yet.


I'm already working on the staking pool.  Wink


I can't help but notice the small amounts dumped on the market every time. It looks to me like PoW miners are instantly dumping their coins. When you think about it, about 90% of all miners, mine to dump for BTC. So I'm really thinking of cutting PoW asap here. It's not helping us, that's for sure.

This does involve a hard fork though. But I really think it's worth it. At first I did not want to do this, but after a second thought, why not? I can only think of positive changes when PoW stops.

MAR wouldn't be the first coin to go all PoS.  If you do it, I would make it happen at a certain block.  That way anyone who purchased mining power can use it up before the switch over.

Since you're going to hard fork, think of anything else you want to do... this would be the time to do it.  Like if you wanted to raise the stake to 2 coins per block, etc. 

Forking at a certain block is a no go in my book, if we fork, we fork on a certain epochtime. That makes the transition to the new reward schedule a little bit smoother in my experience. Wink
IF we do continue with this, the community will be well informed up front. I will keep you updated on this!  Smiley
