Is anyone selling i0coins?

Thanks.

Well, once theres reasonable consensus on what the new algo should be, it's just a matter of changing the constants and finding a suck... masochi... kind soul to build binaries.
Probably not a too good idea to open a exchange back up before "everyone" switched and the network gets at least a few dozen Ghps.

So is it safe for i0exchange to start back trading again?

you should adopt solids diff algo.. maybe tweak it a bit but something like that.
if you want i0coin to actually compete.
I would actually probably do it ever 6 hours rather than 12

Well, thats what my patch does, switch to straight solidcoin algo after block 14639 (180s/block, diff increase limit, retargeting period 240 blocks), but keep i0s 48 coin/block reward.
-> diff should adjust by /4 after 14639, and at 4096 diff even single-digit Ghps should be able to sustain at least 1-2 blocks/hour or so.
I guess we could just disable the 7-day thing and keep i0s retargeting algo, but then we'd be stuck at diff 16384 for a looooong time.

So is i0coin going to adopt the Solidcoin difficulty algorithm?

eh I will bump this... surprised there arent more complains when you look at all the coins for sale on bitparking
yeah i0coin was created on a lark.. but if it can be fixed..even just fixed so it can properly die, than it should be fixed.

"It compiles, ship it!"
On a more serious note, for a merged mining currency it'd be better to start a fresh chain and not be associated with the general failure that is ix/i0 (and namecoin testnet already has a working implementation).

I think you messed up the genesis "pszTimestamp" string literal while editing.
for portability it should prolly be changed to
Code:
const char* pszTimestamp = "15/Ago/2011 - Diario El Dia - Obama cae al 39% en la aprobaci\xf3n ciudadana";
notice the \xf3 escape in the string, it's a literal 0xf3 char in the original source. iirc thats not valid C++ and tends to get broken easily by a editor using the wrong codepage.

finally broke out of the newbie jail....

yup, if kr105 doesn't respond very soon we'll just have to adjust the client on our own and hopefully everyone else will update to the same codes.


working on it...
https://github.com/fusebox/i0coin

Checked in artforz recommended changes... trying to compile now (not as trivial).

Any other changes we should rip off of other forks?

The one week part of "one week or 2016 blocks" retargeting is b0rked.
Downloading the chain with a fresh datadir makes it try to retarget at block 1.
Then it tries to go back 2016 blocks. from block 1. Boom, NULL pointer.
With a client that already has the blockchain up to some point in the past, it'll start disagreeing on what the target should be (again, mistrigger of the after-7-days stuff)... around now.
Easy Fix: pull a Thomas and blatantly rip off solidcoins retargeting algo.

Indeed, it should be an easy fix. Not that I've ever looked at the code, there might be reasons why this isn't an easy fix.

maybe i0coin should have some premine/bounty after all,
so the creator would have some benefit fixing the code.

So I guess if whoever was actually in charge of i0coins doesn't do something very soon,
we can assume that someone else can/will take over this?

Heck I run my own modified bitcoind client/server for BTC so it's not that hard to do (except I don't have windows)

... and this is a thread about i0coins NOT ix ...
