[ANN] [888] [SCRYPT] OctoCoin ◦ The Power of Eight ◦ Don't Blink

[frameLAlife]

so i've been following and reading up on SWARM, available on Counterparty. it will be interesting to see how Octo plans to offer crowdfunding and what the differences are. i'm super excited for SWARM but i am also hopeful that the Octo devs will produce a quality app as well. i do wonder though if it is strictly crowdfunding for Octo or if it will include equity.

Yes, indeed. What happens next will determine fate.

OFF TOPIC

Apologies for the off-topic post, but...

Does anybody here have any old FPGA's they want to off-load?  Interested in ZTEX 1.15x/y or Enterpoint Cairnsmore CM1, possibly Lancelot too.

Cheers

Squid.

Hey dev! Where r u? Community seem to be strong, but there are no activity around coin.
Does this ship abandoned?

[frameLAlife]

no, this coin isn't abandoned at all. the devs will have more news soon!

Hey Octo-Bros! The activity has died way down cuz there is not much to talk about but just seeing what errr' body is up to?

Yeh, the quiet is eerie.  Hopefully temporary.

Still holding a huge bag here, stopped buying and mining for a while and started diversifying.  I still have faith in Octo but all-in is too risky a strategy.

trying my hand at learning Javascript. Its horrible!

other than that, not a whole lot going on, tell Frame to get on setting up that Octo address for clay so we can all send him some monies already.

oh, and see him get choked out too. that is fun

OH DUDE!!! Before I was a network administrator, I was a programmer. You are right, Javascript is the absolute worst thing ever, EVER!!!!

Yeah, I will talk to him about that. We have both been super busy with our jobs and life in general. It's good though, keeps me grounded when I get antsy that there aren't any updates, the Dev's have other jobs too.

I think that when Clay chokes him out we should make a rule that he has to try and fight it instead of insta-tapping. You don't know Frame like I do, he's about the sneakiest S.O.B. I've ever met! haha luv ya Frame!

I'll get that address up soon. I forgot about it the last few days. The issue I was having was that I was trying to create a fresh 888 address.

In the new wallet, it wasn't like the old wallet where you see your wallet addresses unless you go and select to view them. I've thought that was weird and different but not a deal breaker by any means.

So now, when I select to view my incoming wallet addresses and select to make a new address,it will make a new address but it's not new. When I view the balance it shows a balance higher than zero and you can see incoming transactions from May and June. I made 3 addresses that were supposed to be new and all are previous addresses.

I suppose I can keep making new addresses until it's actually new but I didn't want to fill my wallet up with a bunch of random addresses.

The previous addresses were seperate for mining, bittrex, Joshycoin, and some other exchanges. Maybe I'll get a fresh one today.

Anyways that threw me off. I'm glad you guys reminded me.

Just shutdown the wallet, rename wallet.dat to wallet.dat.x, start the wallet again and you'll get an empty wallet with a new address. Shutdown and do the reverse to switch back to your own.  Alternatively you can use vanitygen (https://github.com/samr7/vanitygen) to generate a new address.  Either way I would keep your donation address in a new wallet.dat away from your own funds.

Every investment is risky.Good luck to us.

yeah i'll def try that tonight. that's what i wanted was a clean addy with no transactions so when people checked the blockchain they would see zero prior transactions and basically no connection to my actual wallet or other addresses.

Also, we have decided to switch vendor's for tees. The guy we wanted to use is super talented and does great work for good prices. However, he has not been very active at getting us our quotes or even responding to emails about doing our shirts for us.

I gave him one last chance this week and he did not respond so we will begin finding another vendor.

It sucks because we really wanted to get quality tees at good prices and with him we would have. Oh well his loss.

We will be posting soon and i plan on taking a week vaca from work soon so that i can try to get everything finalized and moving for the tees.

Update coming soon.

Brianbbad put this up on the murraycoin thread, thought it would be great marketing for octocoin as well http://bitcoinprbuzz.com/services/

good find. it does look pretty good and affordable. my only opinion on it would be to wait until at least the first 2-3 apps are released so that you have something good to include in the press release. i don't think there's any point in paying for those types of PR releases when we don't even know what the Devs will be saying in their own PR once they start advertising. but yeh, overall that looks interesting
