when UNO is lets say 1000+ dollars whats stopping everyone from selling off their UNO and "cashing out" driving the price down? Whats stopping them from doing this? Wont this in the end drive the price down hard?

people will sell some but others will want to buy. Demand will at some point always be higher than supply (already is) - that's what makes prices go up. Even if it hits 100$ or 1000$ and people sell their coins (of course they will), others will already be lined up and happy to take them from our hands.
It's all about scarcity as suppply and demand make the price. A coin that isn't reasonably scarce will never be worth a lot, that's the law of supply and demand.

Welcome to the idea of Unobtanium.  Wink

Of course when many people or a whale decide to 'cash out' that will drive down prices as supply increases but that will always only be a temporary thing and prices will go back up as soon the 'cashing out' is done.

Remember there are only 193 000 coins, not 800 000 000.  1000+ is far ahead and when bitcoin was at 1000, I never cashed out, it even got to 1500 in canada, I didnt sell, only to pay bills.  Manipulation drives the price down.

Hello IMZ,

looks like you are a busy guy.












I am wondering if I am in the same weird-psychedelic-awkward-wonderful-nolimits kinda reality with crypto as the "first people" who started used electronic letters for the first time...

...may I be the 100th monkey...

@bitcoincharlie

soooo, I need to make a vanity wallet first? it doesn't work with the desktop client?

if yes to the above questions... do i then transfer from the vanity to my desktop client?

Thank you for your help


No, sorry for the confusion. First, let me state that I am in no way a technical person.

The private key that I needed to import was created by the vanity wallet generator, that is where I got my key.

If I remember correctly, the crux of my problem was the "server=1" language in the .conf file.

The person you will want to contact for help is Cryptapus. He is an expert at this sort of thing.

I'm sorry that I am of no assistance!

Gustav brother! You scared away Bryce with so many questions man. Cheesy

Just kidding   Grin that was good questions!

Everyone be prepared with your question list- if you have different questions....

+1

They are the questions that need to be asked.

 Smiley

don't know about you but i don't feel entirely well with the SC-proposal. I just hope Bryce doesn't push too hard for it.
My position would be:

merged mining: yes please but a little later maybe (if others vote for sooner i'll agree with it too) - i'm all for it as raising network security fully makes sense.
 
sidechains: not so much, honestly. I'd really want to see this work in other coins first and see if it is even useful and safe. I think we won't loose out on anything if we don't follow the flock so fast with it.
Look LTC wants implement it and btc too. Now wait for the drama once the exploit/crack is found and people start to mess with it and LTC and BTC need to hardfork again to undo their changes or repair their broken shit. For my taste it's too complex and not proven/tested enough. I don't trust it right now. I'm ok with waiting for LTC or any other coin to make the first move on that and try it out on their network, wait for the first critiques from the pros, wait for the hackers and crackers to have a go on it and then reevaluate again before actually wanting to see it anywhere near my uno.
I don't care what funding and celebrities dev they have on it. They can't be sure it hasn't bugs before it's not time tested in the wild. All these people like to think greatly of themselves and how genius their new ideas are (just like Butterin who hasn't produced anything working to date. And where is mastercoin today?). Sure they may be good coders and all, but in reality the last word has the hacker who cracks it. This is moneyapplications and need to be military grade secure not some computergame style that breaks down or is cracked 8 weeks after release.

So i'd really want to observe this from a distance for a bit longer. What makes me suspicious is also how they want to push for implementation on the high cap coins and not even announcing a new alt with it to test it. This whole story is strange to me. I would absolutely not agree on SC in Uno before i haven't seen it work from first hand experience and some time to go by for the hackers to try their things.
Then if it proves to be viable i would want to see people actually use it for something else than scams (actually see the usecase).

Let's see what Bryce answers to the questions though. I think the discussion is likely interesting.
I'll probably ask a few follow up questions too.

Hi vector.iso, here is a post of mine from a few pages back, this applies to what you are trying to do. Please note that if you don't already have an unobtanium.conf file, you will need to create one and make sure it contains:

Code:
server=1

Then restart the client. Another note, if your passphrase includes a space or special character, you may need to surround it in quotes, like "my passphrase".

Good luck!

Regards,

On a more serious note, I was able to download and use the app to create a vanity wallet. Great app! Big thanks to the developer!!

Question is this, after backing up my wallet, is there anyway to unencrypt the wallet in order to import the private key and then reencrypt?

If so, what is the procedure / console command line prompts?

Thanks!

1) Unlock your wallet for 10 minutes (600 seconds):

Code:
walletpassphrase 600

2) Import your private key:

Code:
importprivkey

3) Lock your wallet:

Code:
walletlock

Glad you like the vanity gen, feel free to donate: ucrYPTxQPKkb2WTU57PjurHbCHf3rACMJh

I wouldn't worry too much about the swings, the best part is every time one of these "pumps" happens, someone just playing the markets this time, more uno makes its way into stronger hands. This is all natural and should not be looked upon in a negative light. What makes Uno awesome is the ability to come back. Other coins, decimated by what took place. Uno is just back to where it was before someone had fun with it, well a little dip now but that shouldn't be an issue.

Lol, Uno, the coin that plays you!

it's entirely normal pump and dumps happen in a free and unregulated market. These can be hard to play for noobs but once you have the experience you actually profit from it.
Correct, a coin without community would have died from this. In Unos' case: what doesn't kill you just makes you stronger.
Seems we found a floor for now. We're still 50% up in last 30 days. Longtermers can't complain.  Wink

Hello everyone,

not sure why my last post didn't come through.. anyway

Does anyone know of issues with importing a paper wallet into the desktop client?
I tried it a few times but nothing is happening.

I used the command importprivkey
I am on a Mac

The block explorer of course shows me the same amount in the paper wallet as before, nothing else happened to the address since i loaded it.

What do I do?


Thank you
