  1. Most people here (I anticipate) don't trust PayPal because it is possible for you to report the transaction as never occurring. Thus Paypal will refund you your money while you actually received your MNC.

     

    If you want to do a fiat to MNC sale, I suggest doing it locally, using an escrow, or going first for someone else in sending them a Western Union or some other non-refundable fiat transaction.

     

    Good luck!

  2. BTC in my opinion is in full bubble mode right now. If you were to buy alt coins instead of 1 BTC, the amount you would have spent on BTC would make you a prince right now in an altcoin...

     

    1 graphics card = 1 BTC? I think we are overbought here. Adding more people to a coin does not make it exponentially better. In fact, it makes it crowded, slow, and can draw unwanted attention on a coin with questionable legal status.

     

    If you have any faith in altcoins, it would be wise to hold. If you don't, just sell so that you can hold onto an increasingly centralized coin.

     

    Good luck!

  3. I have a small bit of experience here.

     

    I currently live in a city that has a world renound Gold/Silver Mint (Perth Mint, AUS), so I have the opportunity to buy physical gold/silver at good prices.

     

    I currently offer to buy gold/silver for fiat and post the goods on to users on a local precious metals forum, who pay me beforehand in BTC.

     

    I have found they have no issue with giving out their address, and I used to get great demand.  I don't offer the service so much anymore as I used it to effectively buy BTC without paying commissions, and I don't have the need to buy as many BTC these days.

     

    But yeah, the precious metal community is fairly paranoid usually and they had no issues.

     

    Cool! I guess the people who have something to hide are the ones who are more cautious about giving their address out when they don't otherwise need to.

     

    PS: Do you follow what is happening in Coober Pedy? I know they do a lot of mineral mining out there, but I'm super interested in hearing about the oil industry there, if there is one yet? Someone I trust was hyping it hard

  4. Wow, this is a bold move!  Good luck.

     

    I'd love to see it happen, I've said before that I'd sell gold/silver and some PC parts for MNC (but unfortunately can only do so domestically - Australia).

     

    I'm noticing a trend of MNC supporters also loving gold and silver :)

    I have a pretty large credit line from Newegg, so I would love to help sell PC parts for crypto. It wouldn't be a brick and mortar store, so my premium would be pretty close to paying for it from them. Let me know if you want to do it- I'll still spot you the bounty!

  5. 100 MNC, this is worth a try.

     

    Will just have to learn what VHDL/Verilog is first haha.

     

    I hope so! 100 MNC for finding someone of quality shows how hard it is to track someone down :)

     

    Verilog and VHDL are two "Hardware Description Languages (HDLs)" that are used to design FPGAs and ASICs. Most people who know how to use them are working in aerospace or computing or other "hard" engineering firms, so it is usually best done on a word-of-mouth basis or through a specialist forum.

     

    So, if you track someone down who has:

    A) Time

    B ) Skills

    C) Reasonable price

    D) Proximity to me/willingness to use Skype

     

    Then it will probably work!

     

    Thanks in advance mate :)

  6. Right, it is nothing against mainstream people probably are not familiar with/interested in generating crypto. Even many gamers I know, who probably have the required technology, are not very interested in it.

     

    So it is certainly an enthusiast project, and we enthusiasts just so happen to be hoarders rather than spenders. However the specs of the coin support spending quite easily, so it will be up to us to figure out a unique way for MNC to attract people who wish to spend quickly.

  7. I think that differs from finding a block.

    For BTC, LTC & FTC it is 120 confirmations required. It seems to be a lot less for MNC but I can't find any info on the exact number.

    MinCoin (MNC) - a minimalist version of Bitcoin optimized for CPU mining using scrypt as a proof of work scheme. MinCoin is bronze to Bitcoin gold

    • Only 10 million coins total will be generated
    • 1 minute block targets for ultra fast transactions
    • To encourage early adoption block values for first 3 days are :- 500 MNC, 100 MNC, 50 MNC
    • After first 3 days block value will be 2 MNC per block until all coins mined which will take roughly 10 years

    The rest is the same as bitcoin.

    • 720 blocks to retarget difficulty (half a day)

     

     

     

    I assume that Sandy Cohen didn't touch it. I wish I knew someone familiar with bitcoin code that could point you in the direction of where these specifications are stored. If you have skype, I would be happy to put you in contact with someone who might know

  8. I am offering a large, long-term payable bounties (many hundreds of MNC) to the person(s) who wish to skillfully design and upload some of the following content to www.josephshanahan.com.

     

    1) A dictionary (laid out in a design similar to wiktionary) for various language families (Romance, Germanic, Proto-Indo-European)...

    You might ask "why not just upload it to wiktionary?". This is because I feel that wiktionary is unreliable and doesn't adequately credit users for their work. This is why some of the content is lacking and only of "encyclopedia" quality, not specialist quality.

     

    2) An automated MNC faucet with rotating advertisements.

     

    3) A compendium of academic/technical sources related to cryptography.

    Examples would be anything from DJ Bernstein's papers on encryption (cr.yp.to/djb.html) to Sunny King's papers on XPM.

     

    These are all open-ended projects and I am interested in working together with anyone who wants to create a specialized library for topics we're both interested in.

     

    Please email me at jtshana92@gmail.com for more info and to speak with me directly and quickly.

  9. I am offering a 100 MNC bounty to the person who successfully:

     

    1) Finds a VHDL/Verilog engineer on a forum, in person, via linkedin or craigslist etc

    2) Has that person email me their resume

    3) Has that person agree to tutoring me for some defined period of time. I can pay in USD and the lessons can be via skype or in person in the eastern seaboard region.

     

    Happy hunting!

  10. Had another crazy week on this commodity.  Sheesh.

     

    I was watching the price of all the alts fall ("altpocalypse" as RealSolid so deftly documented: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqsMySN-7BE ), but was not able to capitalize on the inevitable upturn.

     

    There has been a lot more whale-ish activity on coins I love... hard to watch when I can't do anything about it.  I would love to scoop up a whole huge wall one day.   :)

     

     

    I too cannot bear the wait for the day when someone posts a fake 100 BTC wall at 0019 and I eat it for breakfast ^.^

  11. What would people recommend for a card for mining the coins?

     

     

     

     

    mcxnow - enmore

     

    I have one for sale (gigabyte flashed bios) if you are interested!

     

    I have AMD APP Installed, but it tells me. no Open Cl Devices Found

     

    sorry if I am missing something you stated, but let me try to help.

     

    You've installed GUIminer scrypt and have all of the proper drivers. Is it returning an error message when you try to connect to a pool and mine?

     

    Is cgminer recognizing your device? Can you run games on your computer via the device?
