Re: Official Facebook Page

If this was just about spam or low-quality marketing, I wouldn't be bothering with all this. The problem is that by promoting Namecoin as anonymous before we've committed ourselves to a Tor-safe lite client and implemented ZeroCash anonymity for domain purchases, it's not safe. Sudo has threatened ...

Re: Web Of Trust and Sybil Attack

Agreed, it would be difficult/dangerous to make this so rock steady to base a protocol on it. I am thinking about determining a wot-core by using magic seed nodes or node age. Starting from this core the sybil nodes should only be able to gather few trust connections. I just found this: http://www....

Re: Proposal: Domains should be regularly auctioned

I have, in fact, myself contacted a few domain squatters who refused to give me a reasonable price (sub $1000). So this isn't just some theoretical problem. Its very real. "most of the current squatters in Namecoin are mostly interested in Namecoin's long-term success" That's an interesting point. ...

Re: Namecoin and Anonymity

On the other hand side I believe Namecoin/.bit is an improvement in terms of privacy compared to the legacy domain registration and browsing system. Exactly. So in this sense for those who are knowing only the legacy domain system and they are waiting an answer of YES/NO if it is anonymous to answe...

Re: Official Facebook Page

We've had outside developers report of shady content being posted to "namecoin's" social media accounts. The most disturbing claim is that Namecoin is anonymous, something core developers disagree with as we have not specifically tested to ensure that Namecoin does not leak information when used in...

Re: PRIORITY: MAC and ANDROID WALLETS [thread moderated]

The Schildbach wallet is good. Note that for Namecoin it will be somewhat slower, though, as we don't have bloom filters atm. Note that IMHO for the near future home based NMC transaction will be much more important than mobile ones. Being able to pay at a bar is not a Namecoin focus... we already ...

Re: PRIORITY: MAC and ANDROID WALLETS [thread moderated]

guys, what is the status of the Android wallet? Is it open source? where is the repo and can we contribute? I agree with you, that there is Android wallet missing, so i've searched a development team to solve this problem. Due to Namecoin's old codebase this is not an easy job and the development t...
