I've been reading up on XC and it looks solid - I bought my first 200 XC yesterday and today (woohoo!). One thing I haven't been able to figure out: if I accumulate 1000 XC and create an Xmixer, will I lose my ability to stake and only collect Xmixer fees? Or can I both stake and act as an Xmixer?
If I have to choose between running an Xmixer or stake, which do y'all think is more profitable? Thanks XCers (goats
?)!
at the moment staking is more profitable until the mixers fees are fined tuned...anyway yep you will have to choose one or the other for the moment
That answers my question - thanks!
The goat thing started as a joke and actually still is a joke, but I think because I have been with XC(and my name is Mountaingoat) for a while now and goats are just funny in general people started using them as the official unnoficial mascot of XC.
Here is the post I made about it:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8864030I am not a part of the XC team btw.
Goats are indeed funny - I fully support the goat logo
i think a goat has no connections to XC at all and wouldn't be a good decision branding wise.
one better animal than a goat would be a cameleon, as it is hard to spot like the private transactions.
That is true, but the only funny thing they have going for them is their wacky eyes.
But we want to create a system that attracts investors and not childs so it doesn't have to be funny imo
Hey XC community, I'm a big fan of Xcurrency since few months! I would like to come back about the logo story, i agree xc deserves a strong community of solid investors but also some new small investors in need of fun to join XC community. As I believe "small streams make big rivers", it will come a time when there will be some need to expand our community to many more people with small invests.
I'm thinking about all those geeks all over the crypto world. A lot of them aren't able to understand ins and outs about the specifics of the technology developped by Dan the Great. Those people deserves some fun in order to counterfeit the fact they understand nothing, but most of all, we need to get them understand the pros and cons of XC in a pedagogic way, plays and funs are part of it..
My last point, and you see me coming, I really enjoy cameleons! Although they are funny >o_o< or scary OO, they also convey some values similar to XC project : they are highly adaptable just as XC, in process of being adapted, they are looking good just as XC, in state of being adopted, they cling to branches to secure their position just as XC purposes, their eyes can watch in all directions as XC nodes, and last but not least, they are super green just as the XC logo!
The bottom line, some of anon cryptocurrencies want to look like XC without an ounce of Techs delivered by Dan the Great, so quickly implemented because of his consistency work, they are just fake trying to be like xc the cameleon !;)
I would like to acknowledge the xc team for their work and dedication, I'm here for the long haul in order to touch fingers of God!!
they are all very nice but i really like the last one
+1 from me
