It took me like 30-60 mins for the wallet to find peers without a config file on my desktop. My laptop did the same in 2 minutes.

Asked Yobit and some other exchanges to take a look at DROP.

Great work mate, working well!

It should work, but why not mine from the wallet?

Selling 99 DROPS for 0.16 BTC

Proof of Work will resume early (exact block # soon), please check this post for more information:

Should work with Xilinx boards or basically anything with Spartan 6 chips that have similar specs/features.

Jump on IRC if you have a specific board in mind and ask John, he will happily help.

If you are in Europe than these would be also good: http://www.ztex.de/usb-fpga-1/usb-fpga-1.15y.e.html It has 4 Spartan 6 chips on it. Some people were searching for used ones on IRC since people used to mine Bitcoin with these, but they were never really making a ROI on it. Also these FPGAs should have a really long lifespan.

Implying Ibizia clubs wouldn't just make their own coins to use as secure tokens instead of letting some random people party for free. If you would be serious you would just make a coin and go to them straight without releasing it on the open market.

Worst try on ICO ever.

Nothing more needed for the coins to stake except you need to gain coin age, so just wait for the first stakes to arrive. John transfered also atleast a few thousand coins to his mobile wallet (or so he wrote on IRC) and it took him 2 days to start staking. It matters on the quantity and time passed, similar to how staking coins have netweight and an expected time to stake according to it. I transfered all my coins and I'm waiting since 15 hours or so now.

You have to manually update now in the beta phase since it's not in the Play Store with automatic updates, but this shouldn't matter as long as there is no mandatory update. My wallet is syncing every few minutes so it's working, you can see a sync button appearing sometimes in the status bar. Additional features may be still implemented soon.

Every platform (iOS/OSX/Android/Win) uses the same wallet.dat with the same native code, so just save a copy from your wallet.dat which you are using and nothing can go wrong.

This is one of the reasons why VNL's source code is superior to altcoins and bitcoin, it could be easily ported to any smart device. Same goes for John's MinerPP project, you could mine VNL with almost anything.

We already have everything what 21co is promising the people without ICO/IPO/External investors, we just have to wait for the world to notice

1) Install the Android apk from https://talk.vanillacoin.net/topic/150/android-beta-apk/
2) Sync the ledger/blockchain on the app
3) Close the app
4) Connect your phone to your PC and open your file manager. Navigate to your phone's storage.
5) Go to Android > data > net.vanillacoin.vanillacoin (this is the path on my Meizu, but some phones may have it under /data/data/net.vanillacoin.vanillacoin/). You will find your wallet.dat here. This is the same file that is used by your PC wallet since the mobile wallet is running the native code. Copy this file to a secure location (Pendrive/PC/whatever). I copied it to my pc and put it in a zip with a 3 word password.
6) Possibly put a passcode on your Phone's lockscreen for the case it goes missing and an app with which you can remote wipe it

If your phone goes missing or you erased it's contents you can use your saved wallet.dat in a desktop client (you should use a fresh one). Just download a new client (try to always use a fresh install for this to avoid any issues) open it so it deploys the needed files under the Roaming folder than close it. Go to C: > Users > Username > AppData > Roaming > Vanillacoin > and copy the wallet.dat here.

Went forward and sent all my Vanillas to my phone for staking. Good that I don't need to run my PC just for this.

Don't forget to do a backup of your wallet.dat to another secure location (instructions in the FAQ) and maybe put a passcode up for the lockscreen in case anything happens.

Just scan the QR code found here: https://talk.vanillacoin.net/topic/150/android-beta-apk/2 with your camera app (if it has that feature) or download a QR code reader.

Download + Install. (You may need to give permission for installing apps from unknown sources in the Android settings)

+1, missed that ty.

Since BCT passwords and usernames were compromised please don't forget to change your passwords here and on the other services reused them.

Thank you for the kind words Imho both anns will be necessarry for their own purposes.

BTW John is making great progress meanwhile with the FPGA's, if anyone is interested in testing the codes and owns a Spartan VI chip, jump on IRC and ask for help (and watch the github commits under https://github.com/john-connor/fpga).

Coinigy Webinar has went down, you can find the recorded vid on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0AgSpNjAMM

They have been talking about Vanillacoin from 17:10. Please note that this is still an immature chart since VNL doesn't have yet a long history on Poloniex. Don't take everything for granted, but it was fun to have the coin on this episode.
