Not to be rude, but if your pool isn't merge-mining, then your pool is stupid. The pool isn't merge-mining  It just runs 'standard' XDN Team's pool software  I saw, but now that you can merge mine XDN with another parent coin it makes absolutely no sense to mine without merge mining. No sane person should mine at your pool. It's too bad minergate is only merge mining pool, and that there's no open source merge mining pool software, but that is the situation at present. You didn't understand my smiles. Thank you for explanation, but my smiles mean: "The pool isn't merge-mining " = do you know any opensourced pool with merge-mining? "It just runs 'standard' XDN Team's pool software " = even XND and FCN 'original' pools don't support merge-mining. Thank you for explanation once again, but it's obvious for everyone who knows what means merge-mining. XDN team is not dealing with the mining pool software. The one you can find in our repository is just a fork, we are not the authors. But it is good to have different pools including not merged mining pools. Eventually, there can be users, insane users (as jwinterm call them  ) mining only single xdn. The real contribution is to implement an open source merged mining pool. I believe that developer who will do it will have a huge profit from it. You can try if you have enough skills. |

How exactly can the PoW required to send a swift like message be used to secure the Ducknote network? Isn't the whole point of PoW competing to solve blocks to process transactions? How can out of network PoW contribute if they're not trying to make a block?
1. SWIFT like messages will be onchain messages. 2. Social messaging platform will be based on out-of-chain messages (like we have self-destructed messages in XDN) 3. Are you familiar with Bitmessage? They use pretty the same technique against the network flooding. To send message you need to perform PoW. In our case this will be CryptoNight that will be used for additional XDN blockchain protection. In other words, to send the message, you will need to submit PoW. To be very clear: take your smartphone, launch the XDN messaging app, write a message, press the send button, wait a few seconds (doing PoW), Profit! EDIT: They "will try to make a block". So you're saying that someone sending a SWIFT-like message might get lucky and solve a block? Do they need to be running a full node then? I am familiar with bitmessage, but they basically run a blockchain that prunes blocks older than a few days, right? Hm, seems llike you are not very attentive  1 is not 2, 2 is not 1. Someone sending a SWIFT-like message will pay a fee as usual. Someone who is using the social messaging feature will "pay" with PoW and yes he might be lucky and his submitted share can solve the block. They don't need a full node (like other miners don't need it). Social messages will be out-of-chain messages and will not affect the blockchain size. We even may perform a separate message pool not to keep everything in tx pool. I hope it is clear now. |

Does anybody grasp the magnitude of this? This is monumental! Emailed SWIFT just to verify (no offense dNote). POPCORN!
This is our development, not SWIFT, we will make XDN - SWIFT compatible. You should wait for the announcement 3 to understand everything, sorry for making you wait. Understood, so there is no current collaboration between XDN and SWIFT? Right, there is no current collaboration between XDN and SWIFT. We are implementing SWIFT messages in XDN and ... you should wait for the announcement 3. |

The good news, just a news.
Glad you like it but this is not "just news". This shows the vector of XDN evolution this year. We always deliver what we promise, you can check the whole XDN history. PoA is an extremely hard and is the only thing promised and not delivered yet, in the same time we delivered the merged mining and solved the network security issues. I think you will be satisfied with the Announcement 3 if you are thinking only about the XDN price. |

2 We will make XDN be a real financial instrument this year, implementing SWIFT messages types In fact, XDN onchain messages is the very powerful tool for secure and private information transfer. As you may know, there is a worldwide system called SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication). It provides a network to allow financial and non-financial institutions (e.g. corporates) to transfer financial transactions through a 'financial message'. The majority of international interbank messages use the SWIFT network. DigitalNote will implement the SWIFT messages types on blockchain to be compatible with the existing SWIFT software. We will make XDN be a leading social decentralized encrypted messages platform, implementing desktop, web and mobile messages apps with the instant, free out-of-chain messages protected by proof-of-work and empowering the XDN blockchain.Private, instant and decentralized information transfer is a global issue. The last US President election exposed that problem. We are going to try to change the things and to solve that issue. We will introduce an absolutely new instant, free, out-of-chain messages that will empower XDN security. You will need to perform some proof-of-work to send a message for free (with no XDN fee). This message proof-of-work will be "added" to the global XDN proof-of-work securing the network. XDN will empower its financial instruments by social communication and will try to implement the real "people's money" |

What do you mean exactly?
I mean be creative and don't waste your time on waiting. Like spread the info about XDN, tell your friend about it. Make some XDN related art, write some XDN story, etc. |

dNote,
We are waiting!!!
I am glad but instead of just waiting you can contribute ... |

When I use XDN wallet to send or receive money the confirmation has always been longer than 4 mins. Averagely 20-25 mins.
One XDN confirmation is about 4 min, you can verify with any blockchain explorer. You usually need 6 confirmations by services (you can do 1 if you want if you are a service), so 4*6 is 24min. But the 1 confirmation time is ~4 min in xdn and ~2min in xmr. @smooth glad to see you here |

Talking about size-cost, the actual number of xmr per kb is not that important. xmr fee is expensive, historically more expensive than bitcoin. Again, I am talking about the size that will eventually cause the high fee problem or network will be just flooded.
12kb for ringct, twelve!
If that's true it's really bad news for monero, XDN also have scalability issues from what i yave understood. XDN also have too long transaction time, unless you come up with a solution for this XDN will not go anywhere, Dash allows instant(15 seconds) transactions via the masternodes. Some other people are claiming the xmr transaction size will not increase much with ringct, i wasn't able to find any good information about this though. I wanted to short XMR but it's a bit risky during a btc bubble. The XDN price his surprisngly high considering the delisting and btc rally, hm.. XDN is perfectly scalable like any other Cryptonote, much better than Bitcoin. All limits are adaptive. There was a minor problem with some rare ultra big sized transactions, now we are updated and this issue is solved. 4 min is a good block target time to keep blockchain size comparatively small. Remember, XDN transactions are instant, XDN transaction notifications are instant too, 4 min is a confirmation time and if you will look at the actual blockchains - xdn and xmr block time is pretty the same ~ 3 min. Masternodes = centralisation, nothing to talk about. |

the xmr fee was lowered to 0.002XMR/Kb a long time ago, too me it appears that Dnote is a bit desperate over his failing coin. No XDN is not a threat to xmr, dash, SDC and new upcoming solutions is(not sure if zcash is good for anything except shorting though). Talking about size-cost, the actual number of xmr per kb is not that important. xmr fee is expensive, historically more expensive than bitcoin. Again, I am talking about the size that will eventually cause the high fee problem or network will be just flooded. 12kb for ringct, twelve! |

We will have 3 announcements these days. While the first one is pretty minor, the second one will be huge and the third one ... you will see. 1 2 3Now we are starting with the first one. Very very minor compared to the second and third one. 1You can find an updated XDN and FCN source code on github, this is a hardfork for XDN and major update for FCN. https://github.com/xdn-project/digitalnote/commit/6f53611c3e635e31f33ec0b7ab8dc90263edc214https://github.com/xdn-project/fantomcoin/commit/4dff0f5efe7e911b6aed494ee56410b3b3a142e5First, we are updating our Proof of work mining to be compatible with all XMR versions. You will be able to keep XDN+XMR and FCN+XMR merged mining even after the Monero ringct.
A Brief statement about ringct: In short - it will ruin xmr, without a doubt, it is a big deadly mistake and you will recognize it on a long run or maybe even faster this year. It is not only odds with the ideas of CryptoNote, but odds with the ideas of cryptocurrencies. One of the cornerstones of everything here is a cheap worldwide transaction. . XMR transactions are not cheap now and will be dirty expensive after the ringct. xmr fee is 0.01 per kb. ringct will add at least +12kb to every ringct transaction. Not talking about mixin, actual tx size, etc. At least 12kb for every ringct transaction will make xmr way tooo expensive and will make xmr blockchain looks like a scrapyard after a short period of time. If you will look at current xmr transactions you will find the average size of ~ 1kb. ring ct will make it at least 12 times higher. This is insane and shows the total misunderstanding of the basic cryptocurrencies principles. FYI Bitcoin tx is like 0.4kb, xdn tx is like 1kb and xmr ringct will be >12kb. I (personally) should warn you about the danger situation with xmr, with their ongoing pump, etc. Make your research, make your decidions. XDN and FCN will not use ringct but will be fully compatible with XMR mining after this update. Please, update your XDN and FCN before the 6-7th Jan. Repeating our position regarding Poloniex: We are glad that Poloniex will delist XDN, we are unhappy that XDN users may suffer from the Poloniex scam actions. We are warning you: NEVER USE POLONIEX FOR ANY XDN-PROJECT TRADES. MOVE YOUR COINS FROM THERE ASAP. You can use the other exchanges for XDN and FCN: https://hitbtc.com/exchange/XDN-to-BTC https://hitbtc.com/exchange/FCN-to-BTC https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-XDNAnother thing in a new update is a default block size. We are increasing it to 200kb to avoid ANY unconfirmed transactions. It was not the reason of delisting because XDN unconfirmed transactions were a pretty rare thing and it can be solved with just one command by Poloniex: reset. Polo can tell whatever they want, we have no doubt - delisting is a scam alike action caused by fear, repeat, there were NO technical or any other reasons to delist XDN. You can read more about Poloniex delisting scam here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1082745.msg17237093#msg17237093 We are glad, soon we will be out of untrusted Polo and will start a new chapter ... Wait for 2 and 3To be continued ... |
