is this correct?

I think the price for GPUC should remain fairly stable,  once the store opens up and we have some idea about how many GPUC it will cost to get one GPU.   I think the GPUC should be in some way self-correcting because anyone who buys GPUC to get a GPU is going to check it against the value of BTC and their national currency. The volatility might be more connected to BTC volatility than manipulation of the GPUC market.

The only way I see extreme volatility is if there's a lot of dumping all at once or if the GPUC store is the only place where you can find, for example, 290x GPUs.

Honestly, if you believe anyone mines that coin to buy GPUs you are just naive.

Who mines it is planning to dump it as soon as the price is profitable enough. Some of the miners bet on people that are expected buy this coin to get GPUs, but really look at it: You get GPUs quicker and cheaper on big markets than here - especially outside of north america. As said before, the whole model is a flaw, and if the creators are aware of the flaw instead of being totally naive, a scam.

That's not true though. If I can get a GPU cheaper using GPUC than using $ then I'll use my GPUC for it. There's no reason for me to dump it on an exchange and convert it to $ just to buy a GPU that's more expensive.

Does anyone know how many BTC was invested in the IPO?  325,000,000 GPUC is going to be paid to the IPO so that should tell us about the value the CEO thinks GPUC should be.  And it should give a rough estimate as to the cost of a GPU.  Right now, one 290 at $525 (GPUC store price) is .86BTC.

Exactly.  If you can buy GPU's cheaper than newegg etc., and he actually has them in stock, it makes perfect sense to use GPUC.  That's the only question though, will he be able to stock the cards and sell them at a reasonable price.  If he comes in at the same price, there's no reason to use GPUC.

You are forgetting one important factor: Good GPUs are freaking HARD to find.  And if you find them they are extremely expensive.  You might have some inside information or some contact that you can use to get GPUs at a reasonable price, but the average joe doesn't.  This gives us one more method to obtain the GPUs we want.

how to setup a p2p address on conf file?

[shackrat]

Tax: CEO already posted the thing about taxes: GPUcoin is considered as a commodity and when you buy GPU with GPUC, you are exchanging commodity with commodity, it is tax free.

For those in the USA, that is very dangerous advice.  A graphics card is NOT a commodity, it is a realization of gain on the investment of the cryptocurrency being used to exchange.  Your costs to acquire GPUcoin is considered your basis, and any difference between your cost to acquire and the cost of the card is a gain.

I suggest further reading here.  http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1uccfz/i_am_a_tax_attorney_here_are_my_answers_to_the/

Despite the fact he's a tax attorney who arguably could be looking for clients, my own tax accountant his given me similar advice as well.

That's what I tried explaining to folks early on in this thread, as some folks were confident GPUC would stand up with a defined value. I said no.. it won't. GPUC is merely the transport vehicle; while a static or at least high value is preferred, it doesn't mean that will be the case. The markets will define the value of the coin. This will be based on their confidence and preference of using GPUC, which is based on the business frontend's ability to outperform its Commercial Competition in quantity/volume.

I like the overall idea of the business model, being based on a product which is in demand, but that is its own Achilles heel--it's a product which is in such high demand that the factories cannot keep up with production. Amazon is the highest volume reseller of GPUs in North America to the consumer market, followed up by Newegg, Tiger Direct, etc.

While GPUCoin will surely be able to garner some sort of partnership with a wholesale or reseller/distributor, they will not be able to outdo Amazon or the others in Accessibility and Volume. They will fill a niche for sure--no doubt about it--but they won't come close to being one of the "go to" places. Especially when, right now, you can use BTC directly on TigerDirect, or buy store giftcards with it--and with Amazon, you can go BTC->Giftcard at a 15-20% discount. So if you're a Prime member, you're getting below MSRP on the GPU's already, and then another 15-20% off of that--with next day delivery, and no quantity limits.

I'm not seeing how GPUCoin can compete with that.

I might be wrong, but this is my assessment.

Edit:

In fact, if I were GPU Coin, in addition to partnerships with resellers/wholesale establishments, I would probably be buying from Amazon and then reselling it. Perhaps this is part of his plan, it would certainly open up volume. He could then make a nice net profit on his side of the ledger if he did this and kept the GPU price below Newegg's pricing.

Incorrect or no genesis block found.

Ideas?

Delete the old data from the previous incarnations of GPUcoin. Found under C > users . Appdata > roaming etc

Is that poster above still giving away GPU coins?

GWeoHTzah9By5hR1xCrydDa4ei5VLHug7f 

There is nothing in my appdata folder to delete.

I am having the same problem.

I was running the old GPUCoin wallet and could not get it to sync so downloaded the new one and am getting this problem.
