So.

Close the thread.

Create a new ANN.

 

And who do think suggested jl777 to use CoinShuffle as a first step? Me.

But now there is something better available (or you can use both together as I also gave jl777 the idea of using CoinShuffle as a way to send messages anonymously):

As I wrote up thread about my block chain design, the transaction processing format is orthogonal to the block chain, so anybody can add any kind of transaction processing they want.

I am talking really radical concepts. You all haven't even seen the tip of the iceberg yet. My anonymity paper is just a small smidgen of what is up my sleeve. (fucking health problem!)

Boolberry and SuperNET (who has the money) should be very interested.

Here is a recent post he made on the issue:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12617626

Can you add a poll to OP for donating to SuperNET to fund integration of Boolberry and your CT work?

I never viewed those as Bitcoin killers. If their supporters thought they were, they were delusional.

You don't replace Bitcoin by doing some obscure feature better. You replace Bitcoin because something everybody desperately needs NOW can't be done by Bitcoin and only by your coin.


Except one problem. Bitcoin's block size can't scale to large data. Not without mining becoming very centralized.

That is far from clear. It has been tried and is being tried - Monero, to Dash, to xyz Coin.

Factom, for example, has raised $millions, by aligning with Bitcoin rather than trying to compete against it (I don't own any Factom or think they are legit under the hood).

However, first working ZKP might be enough to create a very comfortable retirement fund and enable decades of coding for fun.

Yep. Imo anonymity isn't really even needed until and if the coin gains a marketcap and user base (and hence the attention of the authorities) approaching those of Bitcoin's. But having an implied promise that there will be anonymity eventually is important for being able to gain that marketcap (although probably best not to literally promise anything that wouldn't be ready and sold at the crowdfund if that's the route you'll choose).

You assume that Etherium did it correctly. There might be an epiphany that simplified the entire concept and enables one man to sort it out better than they did. Never underestimate the creativity of the odd thinker. When you think someone is odd, maybe that is sign they think differently than others thus are more likely to think of things in ways others don't.

What drives success more than anything is passion and commitment. Next comes a 6th sense of picking what is important. Next comes the aptitude to achieve it. Next comes some clever insights. Last comes some luck. Very rarely is it because of affiliations. Well that has been my experience at least. In terms of doing work as a group, work only with the very best, because the others just bog you down. And minimize the number of people you work with.

I don't think it is always best to have industry experts on your side. Sometimes the craziest damn unexpected thing comes from the one who was the least expected to do so and was the least conformist.

You know what I love about your post. You are challenging me. When I am not sick and someone says I can't do something, that is going to motivate me to do it. Lately I haven't been myself because illness physically removed what I could normally do in terms of effort and hours.

Any way enough about this. Thanks for your opinion. Very motivational.

That might make me worried because I might think that no one would invest in my work if I wasn't affiliated with other experts, but then I know that the smartest venture capitalists want to buy when everyone else won't so they get the lowest price and the go for the huge gains in appreciation.

I think one thing is clear. Drop a fully implemented Bitcoin killer in testnet on this forum, and the interest will be very high.

That's a pretty realistic time frame to make a few $$million.

FWIW....VCs throw money at talented coders and they throw abuse at people that walk in with good ideas and no coding talent in their team.

So....what to code? That's the trick 

From private messages, some Monero supporters (not rangedriver) think I could earn some XMR from doing a few coding jobs for donations, and they would like to see my creativity inside of Monero's community. I really appreciate that guys. Thank you for the warm invitation. And thanks for the help on my health. I will be looking more into the health tips.

I just want to point out something. I am 50 and I have no retirement, no savings, I live in a 3rd world country, and no one in my family can help me even a dime. And I have no insurance and no social welfare system to help me (I refused the USA system). So I don't have time for ideological giving. I need to produce with the few years I have remaining before I am old geezer (in the midst of a global crisis underway!!) and I need to know I am earning a market rate for my skills. So asap I need to do something in crypto and see if I can earn enough, else I need to get out and go work in other areas where I can earn a decent income.

The XMR donations model seems to pay about $1000 to $1500 per 2 weeks of work. So less than $40,000 per year. Sorry I was earning that much (inflation-adjusted) at age 19 back in 1984. That is totally incompatible with a man of my age and situation. Monero work is fit for those coders who have made already a lot of money and want to make an ideological contribution to crypto. Or who are young and live for example in Ukraine or Russia. I applaud their ethics, but I am also not sure if their ethics have not clouded their understanding of nature, economics, and market dynamics. But I don't want to judge. I am just saying the choice seems pretty clear that either I can earn enough in crypto or I can't. I need to find out as quickly as possible.

Sorry for writing so much. But I am tired of being misunderstood. I wanted to make it very clear.

Also I don't feel Monero really needs me. Because they need guys who fit well into a cooperative open source model where each of a multitude of people do coding tasks. Even though I am aware of this open source model, I have never done it. Never. I have always coded on small teams or by myself. I am not accustomed to interacting with code virtually. I think these guys get a great feeling from for example being on freenode talking tech. It doesn't drive my feelings. I feel no interest in that sort of thing. I go off by myself and create. That has been my style my entire life.

I suppose if I had no other options I would do it. But I really think you are asking to put a square peg in a round hole. Just isn't well matched. Perhaps I am mistaken, but usually my gut instincts are correct.

because i've proved again and again, your shitcoins are scam. altcoin=wild wild west scam world with no adoption. when i say anything, it will always right.

nowhere to be found on your OP. this only prove and make you a legitimated scammer wannabe. now go and editing your OP to included this statement, but then the fire already fizzle.
the scam team from shadowcoin already claimed to have zero knowledge and working so no one need your copy/paste shit anymore.

do you know and heard something call testnet?

Benthach is a known troll. Best to ignore that trash.

Slander is attacking someone's reputation with lies that have an economically damaging effect.

Asking him to put his legal name on his attacks is way of saying to readers that "please note this guy is attacking me but won't even use his real name, but I have used my real name". So it is way of stating to readers who is more trustworthy.

Also it was the easiest way to respond since this is not a moderated thread, otherwise I would have just deleted his posts and ignored them.

As for suing for slander and the legal system, obviously he isn't worth my time to do that. I only stated that he should be willing to be culpable (responsible for his actions) if he wants to claim righteousness.

When reading my posts, please note I am often an abstract thinker, so I often have something going in my mind that is conceptual and not just what is literally written.

I think you failed to read what I wrote:


If you are referring to the offer to sell my completed work in the whitepaper then apparently you have some kind of comprehension disability.

Smooth and I have talked on occasion in private about working together. Lately we are not talking about that. That is always a possibility again in the future. Realize any code I am off doing, can at any time be brought to smooth and say, "this is working, should we integrate this in Aeon?".

I think coming with some code in hand is maybe more instructive than a lot of verbiage.

I just want to code and know I have enough support out there if I produce something of value. Appears the support is out there. The onus is on me. If it makes most sense to ally with smooth, that can be discussed. Producing some code first might be the most convincing.

important my a$$
real scammer will always get money first before work
real inventor will always get thing to worked first before asking for money

Kindly consider getting lost. This is a very important thread, and he is the OP, and I known him for 8 years, and your slander is not welcome.

Why do people who want to get rid of the existing centralized legal system constantly threaten with it?  I'm not just picking on you ... Cryptsy, Paycoin, the guys on Bitcointalk when I tried to start a small angel funding for the guy who was doing the bitcoin malleability attack.

It seems so weird to me even if it really is slander or misinformation etc.  Seems like freemarket / educated people's opinions should be adequate to deal with who does / doesn't have something valid to say.

lol
what a scammer wannabe
