After years of lurking on this forum and other corners of the Bitcoiniverse, I finally come out of the shadows to speak up because I want to spend some BTC and no one wants it?

Shoot me your offer & I'll see/Make a Counter Offer.

Stay classy, Nthuser... you have like 3 offers above. You have a PM from me and who knows who else.

You know you can buy LTC with Bitcoin, right? Pick a number, you're holding up the Altcoin economy here. Extort already.

ThickAsThieves, regretting that decision not to premine yet?

Nice, yet another pump and dump coin that offers nothing really new to this crypto scene.

Au contraire mon frère... this here is a novelty play, like that one with the canine theme. A wise man told me long ago that:

Quote

Doge is a reminder to Bitcoiners that cryptocurrencies are just branded commodities.

Okay, so it was only about a week ago and he was a young art student -- but wise beyond his years. Doge was the first coin to capture the imagination of people not in the core Bitcoin demographic, as is being discussed RFN under the title "Dogecoin WTF?" http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1wxmsn/dogecoin_wtf/ It has 750+ comments in four hours... jeebus! What are we still doing here on this thrice-hacked forum?

Altcoin caught my attention right away precisely for its lack of some new twist. It could be the next useful branded (yet unbranded, WTF?) cryptocoin experience. Getting to see it this early feels like the early days of Bitcoin right here, at least in the little fantasyland in my head. For the price of a few satoshis I can relive what I missed in the first year of Bitcoin: I could give my nieces and nephews a block of 512 ATC and get them into this scene in a few years.

Now would someone please take my money?

what a creative name for the coin...

The name is the best part and really the point.

So let the games begin: I PM'd some folks but haven't heard anything back, and I read above that it's more above-board to bid publicly.

I'll buy ATC for 0.2 BTC per 100,000 ATC (200 satoshis per ATC) until end-of-day Feb 5th (GMT). PM or reply here...

Rival, how much you got? Ankle pins can't be cheap, man.

Nice. I'm still game for up to ~500k ATC at 125 satoshi each.

Hi everyone i'm new to mining but specifically solo mining, but I really want to mine Altcoin. I have a block erupter cube that has to be configured along with everything else. So far I have my Altcoin wallet setup properly with the .conf file. I even have bfgminer going and connecting to the altcoin "mine", but I think my problem is getting my miner to connect to bfgminer as bfgminer says "No Devices Found" and shows 0 h/s. I also have a mining proxy set up that i use for bitcoin and betacoin. Does anyone have any ideas??? Thanks so much!

Hey Corey, I'm no expert but check out the README files in the bfgminer source distribution, specifically:

https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README
https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README.ASIC

Some people above mentioned using...

Code:

-S all

...in the commandline before...

Code:

--coinbase-addr

Maybe that'll get it to notice your devices.

One other thing I read somewhere was that if you're not running bfgminer as root, you need to change the rights on your USB device so the user account can see it. The example I saw (can't find a link now) was:

Code:

sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0

If that works for you, I'll buy some of what you mine!

Pretty cool if you ask me. Wish I could go upstairs to my office to see what the hash rate and diff looks like, and how fast the blocks are coming, but I will be downstairs on a laptop for the next few days. Can anyone update me?

Sorry to hear about your ankle, youch! Hope you're back up and at 'em soon.

Looks like the diff is still at 16.4k and blocks were discovered so far today as fast as 14 per hour and as slow as 5 per hour.

Not sure I'm reading all this correctly, mind you.

How often will the diff change? I mean, I know it will vary based on mining hash-power but is it every 2016 blocks like Bitcoin? Or was it somehow set to 512 on this one?

Also, where do I look to see what block number we're at?

I told myself I should find out more about altcoins and then I saw TAT give birth to this perfectly named one on #bitcoin-assets and figured it was the right place to start.

Since it's a SHA-256 coin, this is an interesting one to follow because the same equipment can mine it. It must have felt great to be CPU mining the other day, on Day 0!

So, I was going to just point my little usb farm at altcoin for a day or two, but Saturday night I slipped on some ice and long story short, I just got back from the hospital with a few new plates, screws, and pins in my ankle. The good news is, I have a boatload of ALT! (I asked my wife to check my wallet upstairs where I cannot climb.)

I would buy 1000 ALT for 0.1 LTC. But there is problem how to independently verify transaction in Altcoin network without ALT-blockchain explorer.

I am. I can offer bitcoin, litecoin, or USD. Please check PM

Wouldn't it be a lot nicer if you just made a bid here, like a transparent, honest businessman?

Good point. This would be better in the open.

I will offer 0.47 BTC for 470k ALT.

I would prefer to use bitcoin for the trade. However, I am open to using USD. The method of transfer may be a little tricky.

Escrow with JohnK or another forum escrow member should also be used. I'm not sure if JohnK around at the moment. The last I read in his escrow thread was that he was away for a few weeks.

I misread the number of ALT that you have. I also saw that there was another offer of 0.5 BTC so I'll update my offer to 0.60 BTC for 407k ALT

This offer is good until 06:30 UTC on 2-Feb-14

You honestly think the network is worth $220k, and for mining for less than a day? At this rate, we'll hit the BTC market cap. within 54 days.

Probably not but gotta try a gamble once in awhile
