Regarding ShadowCoins zerocoin progress, any thoughts from the Gnosis and the rest of the ANC dev team?

Which of the following nightly builds do I need for Xubunty 14.04LTS - https://nightly.privacysolutions.no/Anoncoin-Linux - I got the top one build 100 and get the following error

Code:

./anoncoin-qt: error while loading shared libraries: libdb_cxx-5.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've installed

Code:

libudev-dev

I used to use the Ubuntu launchpad but can't seem to find a link to it anymore?

Found the launchpad and just used that - https://launchpad.net/~anoncoin/+archive/ubuntu/anoncoin - you should advertise that on your website.  As it will make things a lot easier for the average *buntu user.

installing libudev when you need libdb wont help. i told meeh its a bad idea to link to db 5.1, verify that your anoncoin binary is linked to libdb4.8.

[matthewh3]

Official instructions for *buntu users or a highlighted link to the launchpad would help a lot of people.  Since the Snowden revelations there's been a lot more people trying Linux out for the first time and most new Linux users start with an *buntu based distro.  *buntu is a pretty popular OS now as well.  I've got a little bit of insight into using the terminal and my friend is a systems admin who I can always call on for help.  Although most new users will just give up and not bother.

Let me know if anyone is having problems finding a version that works on their preferred operating system.

ANC has not lost the zk race to SDC yet! Every coin has its problems. Lets complete our checklist and get back to the top! Innovation has taken longer than expected to implement but there is still hope!

If you look at the timestamps, Fluffy pony made those comments before shadowsend v2 was open source...

Yep, that's correct. I made the first two comments with respect to commit 94bfb03. Thereafter (the following day) commit 317b9b1 was made and pushed to the repo, and subsequently pointed out to me. I reviewed that, and thus updated that thread with the additional comment.

Honestly, I don't really care to get into a this-coin-that-coin debate. Kudos to the dev(s) for actually putting in effort to implement a very simplified ring signature system. If they add bad utxo blacklisting and also provide a suitable fix for the chain reaction privacy reveal outlined in Monero Research Lab's MRL-0001 research bulletin they are well on their way to implementing one half of the two core privacy principles espoused in Monero's cryptography (that is to say, they would then be able to provide a measure of cryptographic untraceability, but not cryptographic unlinkability).

currently http://ancblockchain.com is down. I am working on fix.

I also am not seeing any active connections to the ANC blockchain from the windows client (and am therefore unable to sync my wallet). Could these problems be related?

They might be. Perhaps we need some working nodes to put in the conf file.

Update: I am getting some connections now to allow sync (but not many)

A new conf file would still help.

On another note, why has it been so long since meeh posted here? I can see he is still busy with privacy solutions i2p stuff. This coin still has lots of potential with its name, i2p integration and Zerocoin code progress in GitHub.

Any updates on the new hashing algorithm? How are Cryptsy deposits/withdraws working lately? I have not seen any recent posts about that either

I've had 100 ANC stuck at Cryptsy for over a month.  I submitted a ticket.  They replied with effectively, "we're not going to fix any more ANC deposit/withdraw problems until the devs fix their fundamental problem".  I can get the actual quote if anybody needs it.

Yes, we are aware of this problem and are in the process of fixing it by upgrading the base code to bitcoin core 0.9.3. Our first release will not require a hard fork, but should resolve the withdrawal issues that some (but not all...) exchanges have been having. The subsequent release after this will update the difficulty algorithm, and will also implement merge mining multi-POW (auxPOW) using three different algorithms (à la Myriad). If you would like to follow our progress, please check out the Anoncoin development schedule.

We have a new developer who is helping transition the code to 0.9.3, and as soon as there is a public commit on github that we can point to, we will let you all know.

[kilo17]

The problem with that is that Bittrex is asking for withdrawl of coins by 12/31.... or I guess we lose them....

If you have connetion/sync/relay problems, its your own fault.
Please use a recent build or compile it for yourself.
Almost all clearnet nodes are outdated!
Also enabling I2P will help alot.

So, does anybody have any thoughts on SDC?

They seem to be going full speed ahead with a lot of community support.

Someone from the dev team needs to reach out to Cryptsy (wallet down) and Bittrex (removing ANC) ASAP to help understand these issues.

I dont think the community expects constant updates here on the roadmap (https://wiki.anoncoin.net/Development_schedule), but they do expect that the dev team at least help the exchanges enough so that ANC is not removed.
