IGOTSPOTS knows what he is doing. Anybody that fails to stake will fall behind. Dumpers will also fall behind. IGOTSPOTS always wins in the end.

you don't need to spend to push the price up that's the hole point.
 all you need to do is get people to pull the sales orders and not sell below a decent price.
and hold onto it for a while.

Yes exactly if people werent so short sighted they would see that trying to sell as quick as possible isnt the right way with CUBE. Everyday you stake 5.47% and next day you get another 5.47% so no lose situation unless you dump for pennies. Me Im personally staking I want a good few million just like to see large stakes hitting my wallet  Grin

Well looks like we got less than hacking a Bitcoin address chance to get back on Bittrex so let's forget it was even there unless someone has 3 BTC spare. Considering it will cost 3 BTC to relist it on Bittrex why not put 0.5 BTC in CUBE and the price will be at a reasonable 100 SATs. I would but I'm broke we have to get this coin moving again.

Unless someone..hmm...I can think of one  Roll Eyes

well i would think if it was in his own home, someone would probably just turn it off.
 or if it was on a server when they did not get paid they would do the same.


maybe so...but we don't know, which is why i'm still waiting on the unanswered question, of why it stopped doing checkpoints in the first place, and wat exactly the steps were taken during rebooting phase

What happens if you lapse into a coma, die, loose your mind?

wouldn't you just switch of the checkpoint like he as done?

or is this on a machine with no access to it?



Lmao, think about what  you just asked. it would not be possible because you don't know when you go into a coma, die, etc etc

it's on a machine with access by a single operator unless that person designated a second user to access it in the even he/she couldn't.

http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/2709/advanced-checkpointing-released

What is checkpointing?
Checkpointing was originally built in to Bitcoin in order to prevent dishonest people reversing transactions and taking back the money they had sent. Imagine someone sends you money and you dispatch goods only to find that they have taken the money back out of your account.

The basic checkpointing feature in Bitcoin makes sure that the software only connects to the blockchain defined by the developers. This is a safety feature to stop malicious users from trying to force clients on to a different blockchain. The blockchain has all the Bitcoin transactions of Bitcoin written into it. Every block in the blockchain has a unique string of characters called a hash. In the client the checkpoints are defined by providing the block number and its hash, this is then compiled and distributed. Clients will only accept the blockchain that has the corresponding block number and hash defined in the code. Checkpointing offers some protection against attackers but only up to the last checkpoint. So malicious users could try to orphan blocks after the last checkpoint and reverse transactions with 51% attacks.

What is Advanced Checkpointing?
Advanced Checkpointing allows us to send out checkpoints without having to redistribute the Feathercoin software. This works by having a ‘master node’ which checkpoints each block it sees on the network protecting it from the attacker. This checkpoint is then picked up by all the other clients on the network which will then ignore any blocks generated by a 51% attack. This protects merchants from transaction reversal and miners from losing their newly minted coins. With Advanced Checkpointing, Feathercoin becomes the most secure of all the Scrypt cryptographic currencies.

Is this a centralised solution?
ACP is a form of centralisation that we have put in place because we believe security comes first. Attacks on this new breed of crypto currencies are on the rise with the attackers becoming more and more resourceful. We are the first Scrypt based coin to respond to this threat by recruiting the best minds in this domain to ensure everyone is protected even those who engage in speculative mining and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude for their patience and understanding.
-------------------

one commenter pointed out:

Radacoin 3 years ago
[quote name=“Bushstar” post=“26405” timestamp=“1377621353”]
… the checkpoint master node is deployed and maintained by the lead developer Peter Bushnell. Currently no other person has access to this system …
[/quote]

Ugh … did a decentralized p2p digital currency just became centralized? Not sure how the (Bitcoin/Litecoin) community will react on this.

Bushstar, what happens if some crooks kidnap you and threaten to cut of your fingers if you don’t checkpoint their blocks.

What happens if you lapse into a coma, die, loose your mind?

What happens if your system gets compromised?

Single point of failure -> not good.

So... how is trex at fault?

IGOTSPOTS, I hope that your temper is cooling down?

Please try to put yourself in the shoes of a NOOB investor. What would you do if you were a NOOB, or a hard-pressed college student?

Whitepaper (also explaining checkpoints) will save DIGICUBE, it is what you will use to prove that BITTREX was wrong

Bittrex have offended me in the past - they allowed a culprit to escape with stolen funds, then they delisted the coin and washed their hands of the situation.

Ok so

just for my own piece of mind do i need t check my own wallet to make sure that is still on the right fork and if so how often should i do it.


And most of all how do i do it?

cheers

getcheckpoint

However, since I'm being blamed for human-error, I have taken down the server, so it won't work because it's not making any new checkpoints anymore. Just gotta make sure you're synced with explorer, I guess

You can check this in the wallet on the 'On the Web' tab, too
You are not being blamed, the situation is misleading, because not everybody here is technically based.

You could also include a whitepaper, explaining how checkpoints work. This will save this coin, as well as being useful for future reference.

Please try to calm your temper down.

Any chance of putting the server back online since the entire situation is Bittrexs own doing and doesn't concern CUBE or your programming ?

Good question.

IGOTSPOTS should include all explanations in a DIGICUBE "whitepaper"  Wink

other people sent coins out on that day too from Bittrex i sent 26290.50958900 to a friend and they just never confirmed but no one got in-touch or offed a replacement i had to replace them my self.




Because they were on their own fork and everyone else was on mainnet.. that's what I've been trying to say but nobody is listening
Do you think that BITTREX should be investigated?

Do you think that BITTREX are in a hurry to delist CUBE, just to cover their tracks? I remember a coin that I had with them in the not so distant past - a theft occurred, but Bittrex just delisted that coin without bothering to stop/catch the culprit, because BITTREX tries to protect their own interests.



I believe what they are saying is true with rollback blocks. The misunderstanding is they think the entire network rolled back, which it did not

You guys are not understanding what I am saying. The wallet validates checkpoints, yes, but if there are no new ones on the fork Bittrex was on, the wallet has nothing to verify.. They should have checks in order to stop the wallet if no checkpoints are coming in and no invalid transactions would have occured

This is a simple case of wallets being mismanaged. If you don't validate that checkpoints are recent, then what good are they..?
Most of us are NEWBIES, with limited technical Knowledge.

People misunderstood you, because your argument is based on technical knowledge.

You misunderstood us, because our argument is based on SURVIVAL.

We will talk more later. I am happy that your temper is cooling down  Wink
