His point is that he needs cheap coins to make huge profit again. So he is making some fud. That's all.
Think you are misintepreting him. I read it as XC is a good coin and he made a lot of money during the super rise phase. He's just saying there are scam coins everywhere else. He's not saying XC is a scam coin. I also believe thats what he was trying to say. As a person whose second language is English, I know that it can be difficult to get your point accross. With rev 2, can you maybe enable copying the text send with XChat? It is annoying if somebody sends you for example a website to go to and you can't copy it. You can copy text. Just press ctrl + C. There's no context menu at this stage but the keyboard shortcut above works fine. For some reason I can't select text, so copying it isn't possible. At the moment you can copy an entire message with Ctrl + C. Click on the message (it will not indicate that it's been selected, but it will be), and type ctrl + C. It should work.

***The XC Daily Update***
- Dan is testing an update to Rev 2 which includes some features that will be included in the final Rev 2 release. The update may or may not be released publicly.
- Teka's UI work has been passed on to a specialist company to build XC's brand new UI. It'll be cross-platform.
- I'm preparing a press release - the first of a few - that'll introduce Rev 2's features to the world. So stay tuned for information on Rev 2, and quite possibly an update too.

Greetings, AS an investor of XC for the long term many others May agree that being an early Adopter and a visionary.. It Can handsomely pay off. As I find it necessary and equally important to have Competition.. XC and KOREcoin are the two who are building VOIP calling and VIDEO calling. It's seems KORECOIN (1.2M) is about to release VOIP alpha (Sept 15) then VOIP Video calling (beta) set to release by Oct 1st https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=668886.msg8636328#msg8636328We know the importance of being first to the market with NEW innovation Regards Peer2Peer360 KoreCoin 50k markedcap, 300$ volume, fully mined. Community take-over and rebranded at www.korecoin.org. I wish your community the best of luck and I hope this will get you guys to the moon but it's not for me. MikeMike is in there Also...Enough to Gamble 0.20 BTC for me MikeMike is different from MikeMikeMike I presume? If it was MikeMikeMike I'd probably grab a few. (thats a lot of Mikes!) ahahahhaah it might be a different one so still ok to gamble on it a small amount for me So, umm, you're keen to buy another currency when XC is on the verge of the final Rev 2 release? That doesn't make too much sense to me. You're quite likely to get left behind. Also, I don't know much about KoreCoin, but it's trivial to make a VoIP client. Anyone can do that pronto using existing code if they want. What's not so easy is to make it properly private and bulletproof.

Hey , I know we have much news today and the xc -team is very busy ,but is it complicated to build a 2 Fa Authentificator in the XC Wallet for more Security. or you think is not at all necessary and secure enough ?
Interesting question. What's at stake is whether we want a decentralised authenticator or not. Do you want to rely on Google (or even us) for authentication? Alternatively a multisig solution could work (say, 2-of-3, where one is your phone, the other your PC, and a third a paper wallet in case you lose/break a device). Although I do use Google authenticator in a lot of places, a multisig solution would be much better imo. Indeed. The thought of having to regain access to innumerable services once my phone eventually breaks is a real concern. Multisig would sort this out. (In addition to the increased decentralisation, of course.)

Nice! Ok folks, better get in quick. ;-)

No you will not even be able to use the mobile app in two weeks. Final Revision 2 is coming out in two weeks. We are testing the app internally and thats it.
Will that final rev 2 include rev 2.5 too with new UI preview? Believe it or not, Rev 2.5 comes after Rev 2.

***Rev 2***
The final Rev 2 release, which you've all been waiting for, will be released in two weeks' time from today.
It will include a fair bit of new technology, which of course we'll make known to you.
It puts XC's tech way into the stratosphere.
You can also expect incremental releases leading up to the final release.
Stay tuned.
Arlyn will you be updating the Op / roadmap with this and the date (sept 15) as it may be confusing for noobs when they look at it? Yup.

What happened to Qibucks? That's definitely still on the cards. We're only too happy to enable Xnodes to serve content to QiBuck. In some ways XC's content-delivery system is the most major thing to have been announced in XC's history. Development on it will start after Rev 2.

Hope you had a good break yeah Dan, How was your well deserved vacation? Dan's vacation ended over a week ago. Since then he's been testing early versions of the XC app and has added new tech to Rev 2, which you'll be hearing more about pretty soon.

From twitter :
KEY team has hired developer Dan Metcalf of XC for the ongoing Dev of our KEY OS. We're looking forward to more innovation! Thanks Dan!
wtf :/
Designing, Building and Securing operating systems is something I do for a living, and have been since the 90's. This was just a small project in the giant bucket of projects of which XC consumes the majority of. Being in business requires projects both big and small to be successful. I live, breath and eat, XC, all the time - and that will never change. Some background to the work that Dan has just completed for Key: He applied the idea behind the TOR Stick OS (which is all open-source) to Key's OS project. - Dan has not shared any technology proprietary to XC. - Dan was paid for the job, just as corporations continually pay him for other jobs (c.f. glance at his CV on LinkedIn for an idea of how Dan works). - This serves to further bolster XC's reputation as a technology leader in the cryptocurrency marketplace.

I'm struggling to understand the Transaction process described in the OP with the reintroduction to the 550 XC minimum limit for mixers. More specifically step 7) "Nodes mix and forward fragments from different addresses to the ones they receive fragments on.", but I thought that Mixers and Nodes were two different things? All wallets are nodes but only wallets/addresses with 550+ XC can be mixers and you have to enable a setting for this? Somewhat like a Darkcoin Masternode?
I would love some clarification on the difference between a Darkcoin Masternode and a XC mixer, also why dedicated mixers and their limits are even needed as opposed to all wallets with XC in it could function as mixers?
Does XChat run through Mixers?
Just to clarify I'm not trying to cause FUD, I still hold and stake my over-exposed position in XC. I just wan't to understand the more technical aspect of how XC is anon compared to our friendly alternatives.
,Thanks
Bump, Anyone? We'll explain how XC mixers work pretty shortly, but here's a brief synopsis for now. - They're not like masternodes. - They're pretty much a way to ensure XC apps are present to forward/mix transactions even when there aren't enough nodes actually making payments at a given point in time. - So it's still the case that all XC nodes forward/mix transactions. - That is, any node will participate in forwarding/mixing when its user makes a payment. - But in addition, nodes with an appropriate balance lend a hand to transactions to bolster privacy (say, whenever lots of fragments are required, or for some other situations). - Nodes that do this earn a transaction fee. Oh, XChat uses XC's equivalent of Bitcoin's broadcasting system (i.e. is true P2P and is encrypted). It does not use the blockchain. Therefore mixing/forwarding is not necessary, since no addresses are stored publicly and since only the receiving node can decrypt the message. Thank you Synechist, I think I get the difference based on that description! So the network is still very much decentralized it is just a safeguard function until the network get's more traffic. Is there any plans to incentive traffic in this early age, would you recon it is needed? My guess is that the only incentive XC will ever need to provide is XC mobile apps. On the other hand, it's a little hard to predict how people will use XC when decentralised exchanges and smart contracts are implemented. I mean, bots can do a lot of trades! And there's no saying what a contract may stipulate. Since the idea is for the sky to be the limit, it's a pretty good idea to have Xnodes available to forward transactions trustlessly even if their users aren't personally making payments.
