If it shows up confirmed in your wallet, you dont have to worry

Oh Snap!!! You are super duper! Thanks for pointing out the obvious cause i'm obviously blind. I checked the txid in another block explorer and it couldn't find it; not home so assumed the worst figured it was the same ol' same ol' w/cryptsy. Thanks for the help and to calm my nerves till i get home! The best bestest!

The number of Ivy League degrees working on zerocash really doesn't matter if users are asked to *trust* that the key has been destroyed in order assure anonymity.

Is this another stuck transaction from Cryptsy?

Hopefully after Zerocoin there will be more exchange options!

How are we supposed to trade when transactions to/from the biggest exchange ANC is listed often get stuck?

and whats this? http://abe.darkgamex.ch:2751/tx/855c148b7fcdcec1832c973948f105692303e26b7b85e0c77f846f6d21fd1d4d

Can you double check that this transaction gets included in a block? It says it was confirmed but I don't see it anywhere in a block explorer,
855c148b7fcdcec1832c973948f105692303e26b7b85e0c77f846f6d21fd1d4d

also i donated 25anc earlier! match that sweet stuff!

So what happens to those coins in terms of visibility in the blockchain? They are shown as being transfered from the person's wallet to where?

Also, zerocash has 7 ivy league level experts creating an anonymous coin while anoncoin has one person who is working on a salary. If a major flaw is found in zerocoin after its release, and it seems highly likely that will be the case, does anc have a fallback plan? Would it keep patching zerocoin? Switch to something better?

im capable to connect to you over tor. can you setup another node and try to connect with -connect to your own node over TOR? dont use the same machine/TOR instance pls.

EDIT:
seems your setup is wrong. the destination you specified for TOR HS dosnt respond to requests.


EDIT2:
i already had you in my peer database due to the following entry:

well yes - it's been running a long time, and will keep the key files and carry it across upgrades etc, but  not even sure if it's working atm ...

and I used to connect to others as well a few months back, but now, prolly since the last time i built it, i connect to nobody, other than regular ipv4 nodes via exit nodes i spose

Also, from what I can see, the network cannot find any tor nodes, not that it bothers me, If i cannot get the address of at least one then the tor listener is not going to get used

i got list of tor addresses from here but none work anymore

can be, but dont worry about those.
are you going to run this TOR node (45y2lyszn5qnpt3l.onion) "forever"?

PS: if you want to push TOR, please set this in your anoncoin.conf
this way other nodes will propagate your onion address and be able to connect to you.

i get in my debug.log a lot:

partner ... using obsolete version 70005; disconnecting

When i do get a connection it says:
receive version message: /Anonymous:0.8.5.6/: version 70007,

So, is it just me or are there a lot of out of date noes out there ? trying to join in but getting rejected by the likes of me ?

Also, lets swap some tor addresses; mine is 45y2lyszn5qnpt3l.onion

Does anybody else have one that's an up to date client ? if so  please post

TWO THUMBS UP !!!!!!

It sure does. I think this is a good coin to get some of.

Yes, shortly before.

When will you release the source?  Before the mainnet launch?

I've been busy developing so I haven't replied much but I just wanted to quickly say 1) thanks everyone who donated so far (currently full time through October 27)! and 2) I'm still on track for a (binary-only, sorry) testnet version for October 15. It will be binary only to prevent copy-cat coins. If you want to try out the Zerocoin testnet but are the type of person who only trusts compiling from source, I recommend running on a dedicated machine or in a VM.

Matched 23.88919338 ANC (donation is removing decimals, thx )

Left: 699 ANC

Offer expires at: September 30, 2014, 11:59:59 PM (Forum time)

Can the community come up with the remaining 699 ANC within ~25 hours?

Let's see

Hi,
zerocoin is still planning to be on mainnet in november I think (testnet around mid-october). I was too lazy to include that in the infographic


Also about the proof reading, yoyo told me to correct this:
"By using Zerocoin you would exchange 2 anoncoins for 2 zerocoins, which would be added to all the other zerocoins in the Anoncoin blockchain cryptographic accumulator, waiting there to be redeemed."

lots of people are asking the same questions. your best bet is to try to do your own research first lunohkod and lots of others have covered a lot of your questions in the anoncoin wiki. wiki.anoncoin.net

also check out https://wiki.anoncoin.net/Anonymity_of_cryptocurrencies for comparison to other approaches like cryptonite.

check out the wiki if you have any questions after that feel free to ask, also lots of people in the irc freenode channel #anonocoin  and on irc2p #anoncoin

I have some questions after reading the infographic. Its a bit difficult to read everything on this thread right now.

First of all about the RSA UFOs. I am sure many people have already asked about this already. So to my understanding the problem with those is that people will have to trust that the keys have been destroyed after launch because if they havent one can mint as many coins as he likes without anyone even knowing. So the proposal is that there isnt only one key but many given to a few persons and we have to trust than at least one of them will delete his key. In any case the anonymity is not compromised.

Is what i am talking about correct or i miss something? Also who are the people that will be given the keys? How many? And when this will happen, is there a date for that? Will it be public or something?

Now about mining, i understand that the algo will change to AuxPoW and the coin will be merged mined with other coins with 5 different algos. SHA256,  Scrypt, Skein, CryptoNight and Primecoin's algo.

I am not familiar with what AuxPoW is so i want to ask how does this work? Any link so i can read about it? And when will this algo change take place?

When does Zerocoin goes live? Is there a set date for that?

I am a holding Monero. You say that Cryptonote is actually mixing and eventually someone will be able to link transactions. Is this proven or is it under certain situations or something? I know that coinjoin is easy to track but i havent heard the same about cryptonote. Where can i read more about this. I am not the best guy when it comes to cryptography though


Thanks a lot.


P.S. I just saw in the infographic that you say ETA needs update.
