WHY SHOULD I INVEST IN THIS COIN?

CAN I GET THE DEVS PHONE NUMBER PLEASE?

ZeitCoin is a POS (Proof Of Stake) coin and is not minable... minable coins are POW (Proof of Work)... Zeit was POW for a while at first but then switched to POS.  To earn coins now, keep them in your local wallet and you will receive interest... it takes a lot less electricity than mining!  The Zeit wallet has a little leaf in the lower right corner that will turn green when coins are ready to be minted (this assumes you have encrypted your wallet, which you should)... then use the menu to unlock your wallet for minting.

hi..i register today in bitcointalk.org...
i registered into zeitcoin and i buy more than 1/300/000 milion zeitcoin..
i have one question...

Plenty'o'minting been going on around here

Everything Checking Out Good √ .

To Fred

 

Grats Fred.

Maybe I should have a look at that ..

I see Cryptsy and Cee'pia have wallets in maintenance .. just pulled some coins out of YoBit tho. - Transfer from cold storage - 12h after .. still the same

Well done Fred

(Yes, it WAS me who did it first )

Hey, hey
Congrats Fred.

Cheers

I completed the University of Nicosia course DFIN-511 INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL CURRENCIES with a 93% on the final exam!
http://digitalcurrency.unic.ac.cy/, I learned about it from someone here, don't remember who, but a regular, maybe Lion? It's a great course for anyone wanting to learn more about digital currencies.  Sign up on their site to be notified when they start up the course again.

With Ver 2.0.1.7 Zeit Wallet

It is very important to make sure your PC clock has the correct time.
To Check the Correct time.
http://www.worldtimeserver.com/worldclock.aspx

Click on the City closest to your location to see the correct time.
From there you can manually update your PC time.

Or

If your PC does not keep accurate time look into an app.
Like those listed here:

There's nothing to be worried about. That's how the whole thing works.
They make use of the getpeerinfo command. Chainz uses getpeerinfo in combination with a geolocation database.
There isn't much you can do. (And there's no need to do something)

Nodes Validate and Relay Zeitcoin Transactions.
This Node stay online 24x7 always staying synced and relaying transactions.

Say you went out of town, and left your zeit wallet offline, when you return home and turn your PC on and open your zeit wallet and it begins syncing to catch up with the network, these nodes help supply the information that resyncs your wallet with the network, and if you send out some zeitcoins , it relays that info across the network to the other nodes. When your Zeit wallet is synced , it acts as a node.

The more nodes we have up & running 24x7 , the faster & more stable our network becomes.
(Also more protected from ddos attacks)
Plus it helps get offline wallets back in sync faster when they restart.

 

Even thru , I am probably one of the most paranoid in all of the forums, you are over reacting.  
All coins have to broadcast an IP so they can form a network, no way around it by any coin.
Best security is always to have a router or a PC acting as a router connected directly to the modem and the Zeit PC behind their firewall. If you have coins Keep your Wallet Encrypted.

Alot of people like to think Tor is safe,
Tor is not hidden from the people you really want it to be hidden from.
Tor was originally developed in the mid-1990s by United States Naval Research Laboratory.
In 2004, the Naval Research Laboratory released the code for Tor under a free licence, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) began funding Dingledine and Mathewson to continue its development.

If you think they released it and don't have a way to intercept & decode every single packet, then I have a virtual bridge I would like to sell you.    (Zeit only accepted form of Payment.)

If you want to hide your IP , options are an out of country VPN, or get yourself a VPS that you remote into, or only using a laptop at internet cafes. But just to really make you paranoid, goto command prompt and run ipconfig /all , you see that line that says Physical Address . There is a database that links that address with your specific model PC and even serial #. So if you paid for that laptop with a credit card and did something illegal at a internet cafe, they can track that ip back to the cafe, check the router logs, and see your network card physical address, they then check the database and be waiting for you at home. And you can thank J edgar , because all the trackings started with his administration's prompting and got worse from there.

 

FYI:
Here is some IP info for you.
http://whatismyipaddress.com/private-ip
That is why a router with firewall in-between your Zeit PC offers more protection.
You want a private IP of 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x .

This is actually quite scary when you realize the significance of the information being displayed here.

Basically, with a bit of cyber stalking, you'll be able to gather information about each person with an active Zeitcoin wallet. You can go through each address, survey each home network, and if you can find an IP with a machine with poor security and an un-encrypted wallet (or several), the person is basically primed to being pick-pocketed.

Basically, just by virtue of having a wallet, you are broadcasting the fact that you HAVE a wallet, and making yourself a potential target. Now if you have decent security and keep up to date on your patches, you'll *probably* be passed up in favor of an easier target (and there are FAR too many of those). But do you REALLY want a cyber pick-pocket (or worse) to even survey your IP and machine in the first place? What if someone decided they wanted to continually DDoS the Zeitcoin network just by targeting nodes as they pop up, esp if they have hundreds of thousands of even millions of machines at their beck and call?

The point is, I think it's a huge security flaw to even have raw IP information floating around in the first place. Yes, it's just IP information associated with a Wallet version, but that's just the starting point.

What i'm wondering is, is there any way you could route the node information through the Tor network so that you can't ID any particular person with a wallet? Or even have the wallet spoof a fake IP and mac address to the rest of the network? Can this be hard-coded into the wallet as an optional upgrade until the next mandatory upgrade?

Maybe I'm over reacting, but I don't like the idea that my IP address is basically being "outed" and broadcast to the rest of the internet for anyone to see (if they know where to look), just because I have my wallet on and securing the network. I think as a stakeholder securing the Zeitcoin network, I am owed a bit more protection!

Well folks, I just got done upgrading to Windows 10. Just as Ray said earlier, no compatibility issues at all with Zeit wallet. As far as the OS itself... so far it's just m'eh. Nothing spectacular that I can see. I guess I'll have to open up TOR and get on the DarkWeb and see what the real talk is about it and if any security issues have been identified so far. It's Windows, so there are bound to be many, and I'm sure it won't take long for them to be identified.

what is it and why we need it?
