Re: Name Squatting once again...
they are basically throwing away free money and not willing to do some one-time setup for it. If I were miner, I would not mine NMC not to give my power. The less NMC network power is, the less squatter's domains cost. Before starting to mine NMC, I wouldl fork it and change game rules. Moreover, a...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
Can someone explain how NMC squatters prevent him (or anybody else) from using Namecoin, and why the same didn't happen with DNS squatters (after all, we're all using the WWW, even though the Namecoin Web site is using a less desirable .info domain)? .bit zone is not supported by software and there...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
Perfect! At least it's clear that it's even not important what the truth is - as long as miners all agree to always vote 1 (or 0, it doesn't matter), they always get to distribute the spoils among them. He will get the revenue in any case. But it's true that they can vote automatically without even...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
Well, yes, we could hardfork with economic incentives that might include miner or PoS voting on name price. But this would have to be carefully constructed so that censorship attacks are not feasible. Letting the votes apply to individual names would be usable for censorship, and therefore not work...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
Have you encountered problems with squatters, which made you think twice about using Namecoin again? Yes, squatter registered domain I would like to take, put BitMessage address, but do not reply for a long time! So, nobody could help me with that. That is a funny statement. He doesn't have to repl...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
The only (related) problem is that it's currently hard to buy and sell names in a trustless way, and the other one is that it's hard to use them. MS/Firefox/Google/etc will not do anything if they could not take any brand domain back. So, you will never see .bit support in browsers. The only way to...

Re: Name Squatting once again...
Do you think name squatting is a severe problem in Namecoin? Sure, you are right! Squatting is the most important problem for NMC. I will go so far as to say that squatting is existential threat. Have you encountered problems with squatters, which made you think twice about using Namecoin again? Ye...

Namecoin hashrate distribution
Hello!
I have very silly question, but I can't find any stats about nmc mining distribution.
I know that nmc could be merged-mining with btc, and that large pools like ghash (bitfury/cex) and some others do mine, but I can't find any charts or plain data.
