That doesn't make her the "oldest miner on the forums".  It just means that she now owns the address.

It is a lot more likely that she is the legit owner of the wallet, than she hacked the wallet of one of the first 2 or 3 Bitcoin miners. (In April 2009, the network hashrate was 5 Mhash/s - a single CPU is this fast!)

Poor impulse control.
Can anyone address the seeming non-sequitur in the post topic? How is Bytecoin proof that Maria 2.0 was banned?

Bytecoin isn't the proof, and that should really be read as:

"Maria 2.0 was banned (he/she can't post this him/herself). Here is the proof he/she is the oldest miner on these forums (because he/she can't post it him/herself). Also, now announcing Bytecoin!"

Ah, thank you for translating.

Can you also explain how a random tx and address proves that Maria 2.0 is the oldest forum member?

It doesn't.  At all Cheesy

Actually it does.

Code:
$ bitcoind verifymessage 1gc9ofUh56DdTY9AWDCXgBrjCRSFRYuh3 HNAaLxjcCAgyDBp8MOsCGfKfIZJSTZ9fRMh2PBkdPBaK2/B4G88SbIkzHoyNFFyEtkQNV/z90aWUfQ5d4UpxZUg= "Bytecoin, a new blockchain released today April 1, 2013.
Exactly 4 years ago, I learned about a wonderful technology that was designed to give the people, power and control over their finances, with anonymity and privacy. 4 years later, we realize that the technology is to be spread, multiplied and evolved. Today we introduce Bytecoin. This is a fresh start for a bigger, wiser community that did not have the opportunity to participate in the early stages of bitcoin.

...proves that Maria owns 1gc9ofUh56DdTY9AWDCXgBrjCRSFRYuh3 which was seen on the network on April 2009.

Ok. How does that prove anything about a how long forum member has been posting?


The argument isn't that he/she's been posting on the forums longer than anyone else, the argument is that he/she has been mining BTC for longer than anyone else on the forum (which is most likely true)...

Now the argument that remains is: IS Maria 2.0 (who uses the photo of an indian celebrity for his/her profile picture) REALLY a woman as he/she so claims to be...?

true

...proves that Maria owns the ECDSA key behind 1gc9ofUh56DdTY9AWDCXgBrjCRSFRYuh3, which was seen on the network on April 2009, proving she is a very, very early Bitcoin user.

If you follow the wallet back to it's earliest tx's I think it's pretty much the second wallet to appear on the network someone else said...

This is probably unrelated, but it is worth being extra cautious: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/april-fools-on-me-wallet-wiped-out-bytecoin-client-165497  I always build altcoins from source after auditing the diffs from bitcoin.
There wasn't much difference in the source code with ByteCoin. I don't think it's related through, I've analyzed it and it doesn't try to access Bitcoin's wallet.dat.



Also, when OP has 70 posts and says he never uses the wallet I have to wonder:

1. Is he telling the truth or attempting to scare people away from BTE?
2. If he is telling the truth and has little experience with the bitcoin client, who knows, maybe he did something wrong & doesn't realize it.


To answer that it was my inexperience with the regular Bitcoin wallet. I had been using Blockchain.info and wanted to diversify where they were held. I had just moved BTC to the wallet a couple days before and was going to transfer it over to an offline computer but got in such a rush to install the Bytecoin while mining was easy I was just careless too. I suspected mining more that the client but did wonder if other people had gotten ripped off that day since it was the only thing I had done on the computer that day.

The pool is almost ready  Smiley. Anyone volunteer to beta test it? If interested, please PM me. Thanks.

Seems I won't buy BTE while price is low, so I have to mine by myself. I'm in. Post here pool info plz.

Quite new to this mining thing (LTC for the last 4 days) and just pointed my measly 370mh/s to Bytecoin.

Any idea how long it would take to get a block at the current difficulty since I'm solo mining right now?

Cheers!

difficulty 1024.  hashpower has not dropped yet. still way overhashed [next diff will be much higher at this rate]

cost of mining 1 BTE is now [not including reject orphan ratio]: 0.00079BTC ,128 BTE per .1BTC
which makes buying much much cheaper than mining. current market price of .15BTC per 1000BTE is super cheap. should be at least .79BTC ber 1000BTE not including incoming diff increase or high orphan blocks ratio.

calculations data:
typical 1000Mh/1100KH rig
[491.12 BTE day @0% rejects] vs [11LTC a day =0.383BTC ]

You are off by 1 order of magnitude. Cost of mining 1 BTE is .000076 BTC. It is cheaper to mine.
The next diff adjustment (should be 4096) will make the cost .000306 BTC, so it will be cheaper to buy.

A virtual machine should work the same way.

Despite 65 Mhas/s I can't mine any coins, tried solo and pool mining.
Anyone selling 1000 BTE for BTC? PM me please.

At current diff of 1024, it will take you 19 hours on average to mine a block solo. You need more hashing capacity. Bytecoin's global hashrate already oscillates around 70-80 Ghash/s (avg of last hour).
