Now you get it. The words "fraud" and "scam" (+ "pump & dump") totally lost their meaning, because everybody is calling every coin they dont like - in every posting they make - with (fake) reasoning or not these names.

I know where and which older CC community started this, but I wont say it out loud. :-)

It should be forbidden anyway, to talk about other coins in an thread that is specific about CoinXY.
It's offtopic and bullshit anyway (no content, just kiddy talk & FUDing).

lol glad you see it that way. Now let's make like you never made that post.

I'll post more once I finish reading the white paper.

On a serious note:

I am reading through the white paper and am so far impressed with the complexity of the method to obscure identity association with a transaction. Very cool.

Let's leave the "XXXcoin is a scam" comments for the children okay? Especially when there is no evidence to back up the claim based on the pure definition of what a "scam" really is.

I could call Monero a scam, but I would sound like an idiot as I have no basis to call it that and no proof.

Monerocoin.com for sale unless the Litecoin guys wanna get it first.

thats a pretty useless ass domain name...the name of the currency is thankfully Monero which actually sounds like a real currency, not Monerocoin.

monero.com, monero.org, monero.net monero. de, monero.au, monero.us, those domain names are worth a hefty penny, but not monerocoin.com lmao.

Sounds like a cookie or doughnut if you asked my honest opinion. Roll Eyes

Remember guys the future battle isn't between some scam coin (XC, Dark) or even a real coin like Litecoin, but the battle will be between the great four (as I have came to call them).

Bitcoin.
Ethereum.
Nxt.
Monero.

I'm still on the lookout for anything else to add to this list.

I agree with you for the most part except that I'd consider LTC to be one of the biggest scam coins of them all. Just because it got big does not mean it wasn't a scam.

But since it isn't on your list (or mine), I guess it doesn't much matter any more.

Just because you say it IS a scam, doesn't make it a scam. Words are very cheap.

Litecoin = Scam because:
100.000 broken promises, 1.000.000 outright lies about other coins, 100.000.000 lies and false info about litecoin features/plans/reachable goals
0 development, most vicious and closed-minded community of all coins,
worst distribution than bitcoin (there are 2 address with more then 3.000.000 litecoins + there are additonal more then 14 addresses with over 100.000 litecoins ...)

1. What 100,000 broken promises? Links?

2. 1,000,000 outright lies? Where? Links?

3. 100,000,000 lies and false info? More lies? I thought you said 1 million lies? LOL!! Links?

4. 0 development? Links?

5. Vicious and closed-minded community? Links?

6. Distribution of coins lol...those two addresses did not have 3,000,000 LTC each only until the past what...year? LTC is 3 years old so looks like whoever got those bought them or mined them over a long long time.

You sound really butt hurt that you missed the LTC train purely based on your statements.

Distribution argument is retarded as it wasn't like that from day 1. Meaning it wasn't mined at 0 cost for the two largest addresses. Trust me I was around when it launched with CPU mining. Nowhere were there 6 million LTC insta-mined. Looks like you are uninformed.

You provided ZERO links and zero evidence that proves Litecoin is a scam.

Here you go:

scam

nouninformal
1.
a dishonest scheme; a fraud.
"an insurance scam"

Define "scam".

What do you believe makes Litecoin is/was a "scam"?

Why is this coin such a low price at the moment?

And new hypothesis is here:
Whales and manipulators force you to sell your coins to them at low rate. They keep low prices especially for you.
There is a big place to grow Monero itself: GUI wallet, appearing on new exchanges, good development roadmap. So, they know what to do and do it.

Something like 2/3 of all my withdrawals from poloniex are failing. Support doesn't seem to offer much help other than "try a smaller amount". It's an intermittent issue, in that sometimes a withdrawal of a given amount will work, and sometimes it won't. Just wondering if the Monero devs are working with Poloniex on this?

Yes, see issues on monero-project

Market supply is high. 23K new Moneros are generated every day. It needs to keep buy support at 230K USD in day to save rate at DRK level.

wrong, most of miners still hold their coins, hope so
basically: when get more buy support than mined coins price will go up, less buy support- price will go down

how can i copy/paste adress to simplewallet?
i dont want to write it by hand!

(win7)

Copy and in the cmd you can right click with the mouse, that should paste it.

First you have to open "Properties" of your command window...
And check "QuckEdit Mode"... this is unchecked by default.

Only then ... will paste what's in your clipboard.

did the trick!

Why is this coin such a low price at the moment? Seems to me it's superior to Darkcoin (nothing against Darkcoin - I own some). If DRK is worth ~10.50, XMR is worth at least $20 or more. My prediction for what it's worth is the price of this coin will skyrocket in the near future.

Also, switch to a smaller pool, so your payments are less frequent but larger in size.

Unfortunely most of miners tend to stick with pools which have less orphaned blocks, i.e. largest pools.

I think we need some tweaks at protocol level to prevent this problem with small miners.

Yes, its difficult, I've been doing a lot of work on my pool to eliminate problems and optimise it to reduce the orphan rate, but its hard to test with only a couple of KHs Sad

Hard to ask miners to move over when I cant guarantee a low orphan rate, need a run of lucky blocks or a lot of patience. Can accommodate user requests though, if someone wants a custom port with fixed difficulty perhaps?
