My 0.02$. Facebook ads suck and are just a great way of wasting money and you need to listen to parthack and start focusing your marketing for the bread and butter of your project which is the investors.
The coin needs to be marketed.
Facebook is the only way to directly target players who have played conquer before which is the only market that we are going to be able to convert at any meaningful rate to players of the heroes project. Until the jewels games are ready and our jewels marketplace is released, there's not really anything for crypto users to be interested in in regards to advertisements. Don't listen to whiners hoping you'll hype the coin to other altcoiners so that JWL will get a quick pump, your strategy seems absolutely sound and targeting people who'll actually play the game makes 1000 times more sense than what they're proposing. In fact a lot of the posts over the last two or three pages seem like nothing but barefaced attempts to manipulate the price. Is there a blog for JWL or anything like that where I could get just the news without having to wade through all the trader talk and fake sell offers? Its a game, market it to everyone who is into computers, marketing it only to a small select few who have played the game before is not the correct method to making money. Care to argue that or do you just want to call people names while making wild accusations. And if you think my sell offer is fake then why dont you put it up to the test and make an offer. What makes you think you know better than the guy who's been working on it all this time when it comes to which marketing strategies will have the best conversion rates? What's your experience in the industry? What past experience do you have of marketing a game like this? And as for your sell offer, it's hardly a "wild accusation" to claim it might be fake when at the very top of the previous page you admitted to lying here in an attempt to manipulate prices. Regardless, there's plenty of buy support, why not sell on the exchange if you really have that much and want to sell? |

Well I was told by richie in bittrex slack you have to pay 3btc to get listed.
That's not the issue - we've submitted our documentation, clearly stated we have no complaints with paying the listing fee and are waiting on their response. On our side we've done what we can and are waiting on their decision. It's probably just a matter of time then, it seems to take a bit longer with them having to run everything by their lawyers nowadays. |

What's the policy for the dev fund and Paypal reserve fund? Are they both being staked?
The dev fund is being staked, the entirety of the Paypal reserve fund is not being staked (half is) as we need to ensure on the fly liquidity if a user decides to withdraw after a pp tx becoming mature. Thanks. I was trying to figure out if it was worth staking what I have, but with it being pos 3 and there being over 1 and a half million continuously staking it's probably not worth it. Could you explain a bit more what you mean by on the fly liquidity please? When someone buys using paypal, we need to be able to distribute their coins instantly. If it was staking then that would not be able to be done. Gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks |

One of the things I like about this compared to other recent ICOs is the fact that the development work's already been done. This isn't a case of "give us X bitcoins and in 6-12 months we'll give you Y", as far as I'm aware all the DarkSilk features mentioned in the brochure and white paper (except the price-stabilization mechanism) are good to go and will be available from launch when the ICO ends on the 5th of November. (Remember remember)

no bittrex yet??
 If everyone who asked about that here instead asked Bittrex directly, it would probably have been added by now. http://slack.bittrex.com/ |

Slk price is dropping crazy. So sad  OMG, it was 2500 yasterday it has dropped from 2000 to 1400 in 2 hours ... this is the END LOL? End? How so haha Whatever the price, just stake it mate! There were obviously a few people around hoping to make a quick buck from SLK after the swap who have now exited. As someone said in another thread, short-term thinking with a long-term coin. |

so on the wallet while i was leaving it to stake, i came back and it wrote WARNING: Checkpoint is too old. Wait for block chain to download, or notify developers of the issue. Restarted didnt work, waited, still the same, anyone can help me out?  Regards Hi @Rav3n85, please check your system clock to make sure it is accurate. Also, what version of Silk are you using and on what Platform (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc)? Thanks! My system clock is correct Im using, Silk Core version v1.0.0.0-4e9d5f6-dirty (64-bit) on a Win10 Do I reinstall it all? I am having the same issue, same wallet version as well. System clock is correct also. EDIT: 64bit on Win7 Same here on Ubuntu. Everything's working fine, it's just got that message at the top. |

We are aware and its a glitch with the actual explorer software we will get around to fixing that soon enough. You can do a getinfo in the wallet at any time to get an accurate moneysupply  Supercool. It was just for coinmarketcap, I figured that's why they're not showing the actual market cap yet. *gets calculator out* |

Silk(SLK) will go full PoS(Proof-of-Stake) in ~1000 blocks time(less than a day). Now is the time to split those coins into multiple inputs and have your wallet open 24/7 staking and supporting the network. How to Split Coins into Multiple Inputs on One Address
1. Create a new address and copy this to clipboard (right-click, copy address).
2. Enable "Coin Control" in options.
3. Go to the "Send" tab.
4. Open "Coin Control".
5. Select input you want to split (biggest one) and make a note of the amount after fee.
6. Close "Coin Control" and go back to send tab.
7. Tick "Split Coin".
8. In the "# of Inputs" field, type in amount of inputs you wish to create.
(If you have a million coins, make 1000 inputs, if you have 100,000's of coins make 100's inputs, if you have 10,000's make 10's of inputs, if you have 100's of coins don't bother to split your inputs and just buy more Silk)
9. In the address field of the send form enter the address you created in step 1.
10. In the amount field of the send form enter the amount of coins from step 5.
11. Hit send. Keep on marching!!!! Cheers, that's a really nice feature! |

We should get some signatures going too, if everyone here wore one for the next month it could help bring in a lot of new people. I for one would be more than happy to wear one for free for the duration of the ICO (these other sig campaigns pay bugger all anyway). I came up with the below, maybe someone with more skills could jazz it up a bit.. maybe stick a geometric marching camel in there!

any information when jwl will be traded on bittrex?
If you want them to list something you gotta tweet em to let them know. Then drop a link here so the rest of us can retweet it. https://twitter.com/richielaIf there's enough demand they'll respond. Or they could use some of the ICO funds to pay for a Bittrex listing if they think it's worthwhile. Either way, it definitely deserves a better home than YoBit. sure, here you go  retweet: https://twitter.com/dandidanillo/status/779403283207258112Nice one, retweeted. Dont worry about trex. Its getting listed soon. Focus on polo because that's where the money is. Good point. Does tweeting at Poloniex ever work? Their coin selection process seems a bit more opaque. |

I noticed there's not as much information regarding staking with the Silk wallet as with some others. For instance, getstakinginfo doesn't return your staking weight, the network staking weight nor an expected time till next stake. Am I right in thinking Silk uses PoS v3 and so coin age isn't a factor?
Yes, no coin age as per the white paper. A. Taking the Coin Age Out of the Equation. The most secure way to perform a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) system is by having as many nodes online as possible. The more nodes that are staking, the less possibility for security issues like 51% attacks, and the faster the actual network will perform transactions through these nodes. Thus, taking out the coin age will require all nodes to be online more to get their stake reward. Saving up coin age is no longer a possibility with the new system that calculates the chance of staking as follows: proofhash < coins · target Note that the system above will not change the actual stake reward. Thanks, I thought that was the case. Unfortunately staking doesn't seem to be working in my wallet. The system clock's correct, the coins have been there for well over an hour, I've got plenty of connections to the network, the wallet is unlocked, there's no .conf file so no config options that'd be interfering and getstakinginfo returns true for enabled and staking. But it's not producing blocks. According to the explorer most blocks are being found by a single address, which I guess makes sense if there aren't that many wallets staking. But I don't have that much less SLK in my own wallet and certainly the outputs I'm staking with are larger because they haven't been split yet. It's been a few hours now. Is anyone experiencing anything similar? And any idea what might be causing it? (Ubuntu 16.04 compiled from source) Patience. There are a huuuuge amount of inputs staking on the network. For extra confidence, add stakegen=1 to your wallet.conf but it will work regardless Right enough, just took a little while to get going. Thanks |
