Topic: New Ixcoin fork -> I0coin - page 91. (Read 217126 times)

So, we should be able to setup I0Coin and begin mining around 3pm GMT?

Excellent, I start work at 4pm and have to set out at half three, so i think i'll just set out later and make up some excuse if it takes me too long to set this up lol

Thanks for doing this by the way.

Hey guys, thanks for your interest

Well, the blockchain will have the following "differences" from the main Bitcoin and Ixcoin:

- P2P Port = 7333
- Testnet P2P Port = 17333
- RPC Port = 7332
- Coins per block = 96
- Changed 4 byte "hello" message
- Difficulty will be re adjusted if 2016 blocks has been generated OR two weeks has passed from the last adjustment.
- Addresses will start with "j"
- Addresses only compatible on i0coin blockchain (Ex: bitcoin addr can't be used to send money on i0coin and vice-versa)
- And maybe more to come

I will be posting the client and documentation at 15:00 GMT of 15/August/2011

Pywallet can recover your ixcoins

Also please put an announcement out stating the start date a bit in advance so those wanting to mine can do it in a fair manner. Thanks for your efforts!!

yeah I think he is trolling.
bitcoin was invented to solve issues the author perceived with fiat money. IXcoin on the other hand, was invented for pump and dump and to get the author rich as they were probably upset they missed the bitcoin start. It solves NO problems with bitcoin, it simply exists as a gambling device.


ANymoo.. when can you actually mine these iocoins? is there a target date? I'm actually am interested in iocoins as they are trying to expose the flaw in ixcoin.

Wow did you really just say that go take your dirty mouth and take it off this forum... Bitcoins are competently legal there is nothing wrong with them people like you keep giving our community a bad name just like silk road when there is just 1 site selling drugs everyone thinks bitcoins is bad but then meanwhile back in America people buy all sorts of drugs with real money there is not just 1 place its fucking everywhere so take your shit elsewhere!

Done, i modified the code to auto retarget (change difficulty) if two weeks OR 2016 blocks has passed.

Let me do some more tests, i'll release the client & commit the source soon  

Edit:

Sure, i'll look in that

Edit2:
When I release the client, the blockchain will have 0 blocks, don't worry

  They're ALL scams and it's just a matter of time before the government cracks down on all you fools who think you can print your own money.  It serves you right trying to make money out of thin air.  I hope you lost big, scammer.

IOCOIN does sound a lot less scammy than ixcoin.

IXcoin had a huge bug I wish to ask yall to avoid.

if You are tired and stupid like me and accidently try to send your ixcoin to a btc addy liek 1JDK9BUeTvJE1wDpJ77NDuWct5BYko68Ry rather than saying this is not an ixcoin addy(like the btc client would do, except it would say this isnt a btc addy) it decides to transform that addy I passed into this one xprZ2AcQSpF8skTmg15M9D5BjgjirmzLvx and send off the coin.

This as you can imagine has annoyed me to no end, but it is also a huge design flaw that seems to have been purposefully added to the ixcoin client... If you try this the opposite way, and try to send btc to xprZ2AcQSpF8skTmg15M9D5BjgjirmzLvx, the btc client says "THAT IS NOT A BTC ADDY"  like it should. It doesnt try to transform that addy into some unknown btc addy and send off my shit.

anyways please avoid that pitfall. We have enough to worry about with rogue online wallet opperators and trojans trying to steal our stuff and everyone trying to scam you out of bitcoins, we shouldnt have to worry the app my transform a typo into a valid address rather than informing you that you had a typo.

can you imagine if the bank did that? You tried to send money to a bank addy that didnt exist and they just made one up for you that did.

anyways dont copy scamcoin, copy bitcoin and make sure you dont copy that purposefully designed design flaw.
 

Wallet encryption?

Nice

 

Is Ixcoin taking hash-power away from the BTC network?
As of the typing of this only 4.76 bl/hr are being generated.
We really need to get merged mining going, otherwise when Oh-look another-coin comes along we'll be down to 3 bl/hr.
   

And make it like 1.000 coins per block so that we can finish it up during the first month. I hate long pyramid schemes.

I'm tri-mining now   

If you're going to make that seriously please adjust the difficulty if it hasn't changed for 1 month

Be prepared for a bunch of people coming in here decrying this as a scam.  But you probably won't have to worry about this until about the 7th or 8th difficulty adjustments.

Man, I was just about to make my own..  Oh well,  I am ready to start mining iocoin!

Can I request that the difficulty adjustments set the difficulty to 1/10 of the normal value?

Coming soon..
