Topic: SolidCoin 1.04 Released [Hardened Edition] - page 3. (Read 8846 times)

client says block 29286

If the last block is #28353
Then I'm in the same boat with wallet.dat; nothing has been sent from bitparking.

mine came out just fine wallet.dat

try a -rescan

if not look at the blockchain and see if you can see your transaction


doubleC is helpful as well.


now jackjack can you get scexchange to reopen?

After I saw the Bitparking message this morning, I decided to just withdraw my SolidCoins and put them in a shoebox, so to speak.  But now there's no evidence of my transaction ever taking place other than the 0'd out balance in BitParking.  I'm running v1.04 of the client too.  WTF.

Done
Soldcoin is a new Solidcoin client completely open-source, no more ask-me-before bs

For me I'm just freezing a bunch of this SLC's and put them to rest in an USB Pen.
No use for this whatsoever and it's developer just keeps stepping everybody's toes...

Btw, what's the last block# on this thing? I already get 1500+ confirmations of transactions from 27/08 and it keeps going.

This change could be contributory towards establishing even better pump and dump than has occurred so far.  Congrats to mastermind?

HOWEVER

SolidCoin is open source and NOBODY has to use that particular release.  Fork perhaps?  Additionally with fork, restore the MIT license to be included?

I didn't realise fully but it was a good ride while it lasted.

The damage is already done. I highly doubt said pools or exchanges are going to have a change of heart about RS/CH and reopen just because he backpedals on this particular issue.

This is going in your permanent file.

Thanks to these changes,lots of my exchanges and SC BTC guild have shut down.You need to ease up on the liscencing restrictions otherwise more people will refuse to use your currency and that always affects the user/consumer.Is there any basis to your requirement on that ":We are not necessarily going to restrict who can use the source code, however this change is mostly brought on by the developers and trolls of Bitcoin. If you don't like it, don't use the source code, simple really."

This is the part that concerns me,as the 2 exchanges and 2 pools I already used have shutdown because of this.

Devs (of SC),I liked your idea on SC but the new restrictions are driving some developers of exchanges out.Please reverse the problematic licencing terms or rephrase them (so as not to offend/confuse anyone) for clarification. Why did you decide to tighten restrictions at a time when SC was gaining interest from more people?

Also did you really think people will take these changes lying down? I certainly didn't

I also wish to understand why you changed the terms and how do they really affect me?
Can't we show the devs that they made a big mistake?I think if enough people complain and show that we are prepared to move away from this SC project,then the devs will take notice.I vote with my feet(and wallet).

This is not correct. Bitcoin is under the MIT/X11 license which allows people to restrict or close it up as they like. Also, even if Bitcoin was GPL'd and they tried to pull this, their infringement does not automatically mean you can infringe on their code.

Anyhow, Solidcoin was flawed from the start. It didn't fix much, if any, of the known issues in Bitcoin, and only worked-around the "pump and dump" issue other similar scams have seen. Over the past few days, I've explained to various people on IRC how a new cryptocurrency could be done to really fix these problems and significantly restructure things, so hopefully some of them will get together a team to actually try implementing something new (it falls outside the scope of my interest in Bitcoin to do so myself).

Wow, what a mess. How could you guys fuck with the license, did you really think that nobody would care?

It's not the first time a project or developer went power hungry and tried to rape an open source project. A few examples are firefox, X11, twiki, and OpenOffice.

Version 1.03 was, I believe, fully open source.

What this project needs is someone to fork 1.03, fix the transaction processing code, and release it as a new open source project. It will carry on quite happily with the SolidCoin blockchain. We can then revert any mental and unstable changes made by the mental and unstable SolidCoin developer(s) and have a free coin. We could rename it in the process.

..or we could just let it die.

I dont think he can close source SC, since he prob has lots of opensource BTC code in there.
Just shows all those 'forks' cant be fully trusted.

You do realize that copyright and licenses only protect against actual copying of the source code.  Other projects are still free to a) understand the conceptual algorithm changes you made and b) implement the same changes themselves with slightly different code.  If you want to protect against that, you'll need to get a Patent (good luck with that).

Can't close an open source thing without removing all open source code from it.  What CH/RS did was put up an illegal and illegitimate message in a readme file, which not only can safely be ignored but should be ignored.

All in all I'm impressed to the lengths he'll go to to crash his own blockchain, and I have to wonder why.
I also have to wonder why I thought the price would go back up from 0.01.  So much for that money.

Well Gee guy, looks like you don't want to tell anyone your reasonings because you have no idea what you're doing.

BTW, I don't want to get caught up in your new license, so if you see me say 'SC', I'm talkin bout those ShitCoins, or ScammyCoins, or those sLOLCoins (I made that last one up).

Deciept isn't a motive.  If they dial back that stuff SC will do ok in the long run.

I had a similar idea but then I realized, that we are asking a 16? years old dip shit (acts like 12), with a bruised ego, to say he is sorry for all the stupid things he as done and apologise. He is probably too stupid to even understand what he has done wrong.
 
Time to move on an forget he even exists.

I have a better idea Find a nice and clean way how to kick this softy RealSolid off this project and move on with a some grownup developers. 
This is probably the only way how to save this project and all the time wasted on building exchanges etc etc.
