Hey guys, sorry for the wait, I was talking it over with the team and formulating our answer. When we first developed the coin, we came into it with the notion that we would be able to stake the premine--that we'd be able to get some form of passive income while working on the coin in order to pay for daily expenses--i.e. servers, exchanges, etc. However, we didn't completely take into account the effect that we'd have on the community as a whole in regards to them staking as well. I'll propose to the other members of the team that we stop staking until the network has developed more, would that be suitable?

Interesting. Okay, next crash could you send me your debug.log file? I'll try to get to the bottom of this.


Sorry I just disabled the official pool while I get it back up and running. I'm sure it's not the blockchain though, as I've been sending bounties to and from many people's wallets and many people have been cashing out from pools as mentioned on the Slack. In terms of Cryptopia withdrawals, though, they do take a while and people have been reporting not getting their Electroneum--it's Cryptopia's fault.

Which pool did you mine on? It's not a blockchain problem, but a pool problem.


Yep, it's a TZC fork. I did notice the issue when I was looking on some older threads but thought I had fixed the issue, being that it was thought to be through staking throughput and its use of resources. Weird though that I can't get the issue to be reproduced on any of my compiled wallets, either on Windows, Mac, or Linux.

If your wallet keeps crashing, try and disable staking by clicking "Tools"/"Disable PoS Mining". I'll look at it further and try to reproduce the error.

I'll send you coins to replace them, post your wallet address. Can you tell me further about the error though? Do you know what you were doing at the time? Did your computer crash as well? Did you touch wallet.dat or any of the files in the data folder when you were starting up the wallet? Did you accidentally delete the data folder while the wallet was open because you didn't know what it was?

Yes, Linux version should be much more stable. All the problems I've noticed have been happening on Windows.

Which OS are you guys on? Windows?

That's really weird, that should never happen. Try exporting your keys to a txt file--click on "Wallet", "Export Keys" in the upper left hand corner. Open that txt file and look for your previous address. Then copy the private key (The string of numbers/letters that starts with a V), go back to your wallet, hit "Tools", "Console", and type importprivkey <private key> (replace <private key> with the private key you copied)

Added both! Okay you two are the last translations we're gonna accept for now.

As of right now we're holding the premine in seperate addresses in 10k increments, as you can see

Thanks! Added both. I'll payout bounties in a bit

Yep, currently we are focusing our development on a crowdfunding DApp that uses Sigil as its main currency. As you can see, we plan to use 40% of the premine for marketing, and will put the money to good use as we move closer to the release date. The bounty campaign is also intended to help us market the coin and gain more exposure; the rapid growth of the community in even these early stages shows how this is working.

Nope! As long as it's exposure it's fair game.

Not explicitly. But what it does do, it does very well. The current main use case is for it to act as a currency for our Crowdfunding DApp (Sigil Go), which it will more than excel at

PoS has been working throughout. It just takes 24 hours for coins to mature in your wallet in order to stake

In terms of pool mining, I think suprnova is the way to go right now. They have most of the hashrate, and the official pool hasn't found a block in a long while.

About translations, I actually think we're pretty much done for now, just gotta finish up the ones we have reserved currently. Thanks though!

Great! I'll add it.

You're entitled to your opinion. If only we were instead like the awful ICOs, who launch with everything half-completed, spend ten minutes creating an ERC20 token, and do whatever they can to get you to send them their BTC.

On the other hand, we launch with a clean, working network, everything completed and polished, a feasible roadmap and the site already under construction. I understand that most people will never use the crowdfunding site and are only in it for the quick profit of speculation, but we will need some form of income if we aren't going to take any fees.

About the anonymity, that's our choice. I understand that it may look sketchy, but we'd prefer to stay private.

Currently we'd prefer to stay anonymous. We understand that it may be a turnoff for some, but we feel that privacy is just more important, especially in crypto. Since we're not running an ICO and aren't asking anything from the community in terms of money, we don't feel it as necessary. What I can tell you, though, is that we have a team of three developers and a marketing director currently, and are interested in hiring more as time passes.

Right now we're only looking at smaller/medium ones, Mercatox and the like. Figured we'd start small and build the community and then jump to larger exchanges. We'll ensure they're reputable though.

Definitely, that'd be great! Would appreciate it.
