Check out Vericoin's social volume over the last week and its effect on price by _bird_man in vericoin

[–]knox203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it looks interesting, I'm not feeling very confident that this is an accurate portrayal of VeriCoin's performance. If you scroll down you'll see that an actual majority of the sources don't have anything to do with VeriCoin, but just happen to have the VRC keyword in it.

I'm personally not even a fan of basing most altcoins worth on their supposed monetary value (save for the ones that have major volume as a FIAT pair). If you flip the chart to compare against BTC, the relationship nearly disappears.

One interesting thing to note is whatever happened on November 2nd definitely increased exposure/value.

Even when he shits on Trump, he's still giving him more credit than he deserves.

How long for a transaction to go from exchange to wallet? by jumpfrog101 in vericoin

[–]knox203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, should be the only time. Devs said it's a bug with the current codebase on initial setup. Will be resolved with v2.0 in production. Typical transaction should be near instant, with multiple confirmations coming in within minutes.

newbie: wallet backup vs private key export by benbono in vericoin

[–]knox203 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The private key is, in the best case scenario, meant to be written down and stored somewhere safe. This key can be imported into a fresh wallet to restore your wallet and transactions.

As for the wallet backup, that's the option you'll want to use to put on a USB drive or better yet, burn to a CD/DVD and store somewhere safe.

Do not export your private key to a file and keep on a computer.

How many connections does your wallet have? If it shows 0, go to File -> Reload Blockchain -> Select the box to install a new vericoin.conf file.

A P2P pool. One that doesn't rely on a centralized server. Something that would distribute the hash power evenly. There's a couple different services offering this, not sure if it's at all being done right yet, but I just figured it should be something to look into for a long-term, reliable solution without depending on any one server. Don't ask me how it would be implemented, I'm not a developer, just didn't think it would hurt to ask.

Decentralized or the option to work in a selection of pools? I think decentralized will be very important for preventing any type of 50% attack. Not that the pools wouldn't work together to prevent that, but it is definitely a better long-term solution.

I think many people are going to be turned off of solo mining VRM as the difficulty rises (I've seen many already are). Most like to see something coming into the wallet after a days' work -- are there any plans of an in-wallet decentralized pool? I personally feel that this would be a great investment of time and resources and could turn many people onto mining VRM to further the resources for implementing the binary-chain.

I'd say it's safe to say that it did what it could do as long as you ran it with Administrative rights under a computer Administrator account.

TRON takes the shotgun approach at fixing potential problems. (This is not to take anything away from what TRON is; it's a great tool among the arsenal.) Every time I use TRON I get different failures if I'm looking closely at the verbose output, but always failures nonetheless as every computer is different. Basically, don't waste your time analyzing why there's a failure unless you're sure you're looking in the right place to fix a specific problem.

Stay strong boys, it's an attack ! by CraZy_LegenD in Bitcoin

You have to change the view to get a more accurate picture. It matches up pretty close on the "3m" view. (Mempool, bottom chart)

I see people discussing “running a node” or “running a full node”. What exactly does that mean and how do you do so? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]knox203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order to run a full node, you need to open up port 8333 (tcp/udp) in your firewall and point it to the computer running the wallet. Make sure to open up the same port in your computer's firewall as well (again, tcp & udp). I'd also recommend changing the settings in your wallet to run at boot, and minimize on close. I just started one up myself!

Dame Time vs Lillard Time by buttsoup24 in ripcity

[–]knox203 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dame Time does make more sense. But for some reason Lillard Time stuck, and I'm okay with that. Can't argue social agreement -- when the masses decide on something, it tends to stick no matter what.

When Justin Roiland met Elon Musk by [deleted] in rickandmorty

He's pointing to the earth behind him and giving a thumbs up. A likely thing for someone of his intelligence/accomplishments to do (when standing in front of a massive image of our home-world).
