Could someone with a Mac download and try the new Electrum wallet for Mac?  Gekko, you game for that?
https://cryptap.us/uno/electrum/

If it works like the Windows version it should make the Mac users very happy. It disintermediates users from conf files and all of that other stuff they don't want to see.  



i downloaded it, but there's no app to launch included in the download...just a bunch of odd files and folders

upon quick glance, it seems that everything required for the app is there, but i'm not sure how to make it happen.  and i can guarantee that any possible workaround is going to be much more intimidating to a basic user than dropping a .conf file in the unobtanium folder to get QT to sync.

Mac binaries are not available (yet). I need to find a mac to play with.... If you're handy with python and brew I think it's possible to run it but if not sit tight for a bit longer..

OK, stole a mac for a couple of hours and have an OSX dmg file for download now.

nice!

it launches and receives/sends  Cool

two quirks i noticed:
-you need to go to Tools -> Network and check the box for "Auto-Connect" before it will work.
-the app crashes any time I try to open "preferences"

Yes, unlike IxCoin $IXC, Uno will not be completely mined out for 300 years.  IXC pays NO rewards today, and because it's barely traded there are virtually no fees distributed to miners. Their main advantage is longevity, which is fast becoming an asset of Uno.   Unlike IXC, $UNO will continue to reward miners for a very, very long time thanks to Blazr2's foresight.

NOTE TO THE FUTURE (year 2315):  If you are wondering what to do about paying Uno miners now that it is mined out, perhaps it would be ok to fork and "re-issue" some of the lost Uno that has not moved on the blockchain in the past 250 years or so. Reclaim the abandoned wallets for the community and re-issue, but keep the rarity cap at 250k Un. My god, if the coins haven't moved in 250 years they probably wont' move in the next 500 years either. Give a public notice to everyone with a 250 year old wallet to move the coins or lose them.

Tweet it ... yes will do.

up from 16th/s yesterday


check the difference made in 1 year Wink

btc #1 network
nmc #2 network
uno #3 network

(source best guess)

**reason .... BTC will always be #1, just cuz ... Name Coin, nmc, will likely hold #2 because the mining operation is only around halfway, and just about to start era2, this means HIGH inflation but that brings eager miners .... UNO #3 (maybe) .... ixc is older but fully mined out and just rewards fees only, so it is grandfathered into the MM system but has less capital and less momentum than UNO so if it has more MM hash today it will likely concede #3 spot to UNO because un still offers a small but considerable mining reward each day ... #4 dev coin as far as I can tell a scam, huge daily rewards that go to a 'foundation', miners are likely dumping asap ...  #5 ixc ... #6  I owe zero ... i0 ... offers basically zero reward for blocks and is nearly identical to ixc

The OP has links to these sites for hashrate

UNO Hashrate
http://www.coinwarz.com/network-hashrate-charts/unobtanium-network-hashrate-chart

Bitinfocharts stops around Feb 2015

Btw, chainz is looking good right now

"IMZ, to be fair I don't think Un is the 2nd strongest blockchain (yet). We're strong, but I'm pretty sure NMC, IXC, DVC are ahead of us in total hash."

Tee hee, I got that figure from somewhere on the thread here. Please do adjust it.



Sorry that was probably me  Lips sealed I was basing it off of coinwarz (sorting down by hashrate it was right under bitcoin), but apparently there's a lot more to mining power than a simple hashrate number. It seems that Coinwarz doesn't list many coins, and even for Namecoin the hashrate is just a question mark. Anyone know of a better hashrate comparison site? I was also recently informed that Scrypt is about 1,000x more difficult than SHA-256, so Doge's 1.x TH/s is about equivalent to UNO's 1.x PH/s in network strength. Regardless, we are strong.

I just discovered Multipool.Us is merge mining Uno.

https://www.multipool.us/stats.php?curr=uno

I even have a little balance there from bitcoin mining. They also mine IXC and NMC.

UNO has gone thru 2015 at light speed ... just wait until the price catches up

Today's hash rate.


Could be better, but it's been worse.

The Cryptsy wallet is draining over time.
In January, 2015 there was 46,000 Un there.

Today there is 35,000 Un there, a 24% decline already in 2015.

2000+ were mine.  Might be Wolong.  Ya never know...

"Gekko, good to see you still have an interest in Uno."

Yeah, ya know, in a tiny, tiny way because..."nodes".  I never heard of nodes for 18 months in BTC, Doge, and Uno going back to Jan 2014.

A couple of small brushes with other silly coins:  never heard about nodes.

I dumped because of nodes.

I use a Mac because I want to do what I am doing and leave what the computer is doing to the wonky ones, who love that shit.

When my wallet just stopped working, I said to myself, "I can't just keep all this shit on Cryptsy, nobody knows what nodes are besides the wonky ones, this has NO GENERAL CONSUMER MARKET.  The Bro's on Bitcointalk are all mocking me because Mac Users Don't Open the Terminal.  Because that's wonk territory that us MASS MARKET CONSUMERS do not care to learn.  If I don't feel like learning it, nobody does.  UNO remains a small esoteric club until they fix the wallets and remove the word "nodes" from their vocabulary."

Hence, your current price point.  That is UNO without me propping it up.

It has been swinging well, so, within it's tiny illiquid market, happy to buy at .0056 and sell at .006whatevers all night and day with pennies.

Who has actually spent money with an "android wallet"?  Who had done anything other than mentally masturbate with "Protainium"?

There is coding to be done.  I can't do it. Nobody else is actually proposing more than spit and duct tape solutions for the Mac QT wallet, thus, I sold and am micro-trading uno.  Keeping the price in this low range I established personally.

Want more people to buy UNO?  Mac owners are wealthier and dumber at computerizing than Linux and Windows wonks.  Get the infrastructure out of the ghetto.  Then you get the Mac Market money.

I know, it's awesome. The Mega is now under 18%!

Withdraw! Withdraw! Onward to kill the Cryptsy Mega Wallet!

Gekko, good to see you still have an interest in Uno.

Nat, my only issue with CF is their demand that I trust them without any hard evidence. Thats rumor mongering, not journalism. They may be right, but how I can judge that?

IMZ, to be fair I don't think Un is the 2nd strongest blockchain (yet). We're strong, but I'm pretty sure NMC, IXC, DVC are ahead of us in total hash.

Unobtanium Electrum wallet:  anyone struggling to download the Uno blockchain or having problems connecting to peers, you gotta try this. Its fabulous. I'll be updating the op and website soon to include it as a wallet option.  I have now sent and received coins through Uno Electrum and it works exactly as Bitcion Electrum.  Your keys are private - you can control them and restore them.  It works just a regular Uno wallet, except you don't need to download the blockchain. If your computer crashes, you can restore your wallet from the electrum server. Really a sweet service to have for the community.

Good things happening, guys. Make your own decisions, but I am acummulating here.

re: yes it is very goxXy like

Quark, World, Hyper, Franko in 'maintenance'.

I've seen Black and Digibyte also be listed  in 'maintenance' but are clear right now.

The bitcoin and litecoin withdraws are open as far as I can tell.

All of that boils down to this: Government regulation, laws & exchange security is all very complex and mostly obscured to exchange users, but people can be certain that with a pen+paper, some USB drives and a few minutes to a few hours, they can make their funds safer away from exchanges.

well put worth a repeat

Whew, so much going on!

1. I agree FK, complete failure of Cryptsy would not mean the end of UNO by a longshot, I am more concerned with educating the people behind the $60,000 of UNO there. I am trying to stay reasonable and not a 'fearmonger', but it is also a bit of an experiment because I want to see if that money is even capable of moving, and concern of loss is our best chance of seeing them finally move somewhere safer. The bulk of it is just not budging, but if it does I will get more distribution info  Grin

2. After years and multiple urgings to move the funds, honestly I would be extremely pleased if those coins vanished for good (makes my holdings more valuable), but I don't think that is one of the possible outcomes (Unless their offices burn to the ground or something). The funds would either be: [1] sold by the government (in the unlikely case of extreme criminal involvement by Cryptsy), [2] liquidated to cover company losses (in the event that their BTC & USD holdings are significantly short), [3] frozen then repaid to rightful owners at a later time (In the case of prolonged investigation/court cases), or [4] sold on the markets in the case of a hack, which would delay a rise in value for many months. We know it is not a case of GOX/BTC with Cryptsy/UNO because we see those funds moving every time someone withdraws, so they exist and Cryptsy has the keys, which is a good thing. 90%+ chance the UNO there is safe but even a 1% chance of loss is too great for me to accept with my funds. In the case of point [2], even when BTER had bitcoin stolen, they did not distribute the losses to all users, people could still withdraw their altcoins (although it took a few weeks) and people with bitcoin there have to wait to be reimbursed over time from BTER profits. So I'm not sure that an exchange would ever cross-implicate different currencies. All of that boils down to this: Government regulation, laws & exchange security is all very complex and mostly obscured to exchange users, but people can be certain that with a pen+paper, some USB drives and a few minutes to a few hours, they can make their funds safer away from exchanges.

3. Brand new interview with Cryptsy CEO: http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/10/07/cryptsys-ceo-a-hard-man-in-the-face-of-coinfires-aggro/

4. Someone asked about Unobtanium faucets in a teeny-tiny subreddit so I sent them over to cryptap.us https://www.reddit.com/r/cryptospread/comments/3nshod/does_anyone_know_of_a_good_unobtainium_faucet/

5. Wow, Bitcoin Rush! I remember he did a small piece about UNO years ago, maybe when it first launched? I am very happy to see that he is still interested, he must be mentioning our 2nd birthday. I wish I had animation and editing skills to make a nice promo-video for him. Be sure that he is aware of all the progress of the last year in case he wants to mention any of it: Merged Mining, Prototanium, Android wallet, Electrum client etc.
