None directly. I just saw a nice simple coin with some people supporting it that wasn't even being updated for critical security flaws, and felt I could help out with that.

None directly yet he hosts the 'most up to date' source code on his personal github account...

I'm working on the Namecoin DNS seeder: https://github.com/fluffypony/namecoin-seeder

I've also forked Neocities and even submitted a PR: https://github.com/fluffypony/neocities

Our main focus is on Monero, but that often gives rise to peripheral and even unrelated projects, and that's ok.

Enough said. That explains why monero projects never get done.

Oh it's WAY worse than that - we also all have other "work" we do to get "money" in order to cover our "expenses" so that we aren't "homeless" living on the "street". Some of us also have "family" that also take up some of our "time", and we have "hobbies" so that we don't go "mad" because we're working 16 hours a day.

Monero doesn't pay our salaries, self-enriching "investors" don't pay our salaries, and YOU definitely don't pay our salaries, so you're not exactly giving us a choice.

Don't you know how open source works fluffypony? There's a core team of developers that sit around coding all day waiting for people to tell them what to do. Jeesh

I'd love to hear what rpietila, ArticMine and other donators have to say about your shitcoin extracurricular activities...

I´ve asked you before, and i will ask again... have you donated a very big amount of monero or are you willing to pay the devs a whole-year salary so they can work on monero? Otherwise i guess what they are doing in their free time is none of your business...

I'm not pitching, I'm looking after (in the sense of some minimal coordination and patching the code with critical bug fixes) a community that was shit on by a scumbag developer who wanted a payoff when he abandoned the coin. Much like the scumbag developer who took a payoff from darkcoin/dash to abandon dash. Not something that I like to see.

Shouldnt we just let it die? Undecided

Its better there community sells their coins and buy Moneroj

No, that wont work, smooth holds a bag and needs to dump.

Let me tell you more, smooth actually holds very little monero, he sold most if not all when the coins got on mintpal.
Source : irc channel

"12:52 AM Alit: i'll only say that 1. I sold a lot during the mintpal pump, and 2. I bought some at around 0.002 during the bcx scare"

"Some" vs "A lot" ...

1. Did not sell all.

2. "Some" = significant amount imo. Probably one of the biggest holders, though certainly not the biggest.

Nevertheless I have a lot more BTC than XMR and I'm not ashamed to say so. Holdings of other alts insignificant to both.

Keep on trollin' -- the thread wouldn't get bumped nearly as much without you primer-!

I think it is better to give a positive impression and attract people that way (same with dashcoin by the way).

But as I said I'm coordinating, not doing a lot of work on it. If people from the community don't come forward and contribute, nothing will happen and it will die out.

Don't you have your hands full developing the GUI/testing the DB / doing other monero stuff ?

Well, maybe I would have more time for that if I weren't be harassed by obnoxious trolls.

Oh well, on to something truly interesting....

There's a new iteration of

!

Nothing fancy really, as you have come to expect. Tongue

The changes are mainly internal in preparation for the cooler stuff.

I was relying on Astrides' public node, if you remember. Not anymore. I have got my own node running and the block explorer is running from a database. You know what this means, right? Number crunching! Soon^tm.

Meanwhile there are a few things you might notice:
  - API examples have the right URL now (I guess nobody was using that because I got no complaints)
  - results are faster
  - mixin count was changed from chainradar to simplewallet like (meaning 0 mixing = 1 signer)
  - block and transaction sizes display correctly
  - and you can search by payment id:

I would be happy to get your feedback and suggestions!
