Could be lack of sleep coercing me into feeding a troll, but I hope this was an honest question.

First, I haven't had time to review all of the other alts functionality to see what is being brought to the table. (Boolberry included.)
Second, the point of SuperNET seems to be to strengthen the crypto community as a whole as opposed to promoting and/or trashing other alts.  When one benefits, all benefit.
Finally, how can superiority be claimed over something never published... or even announced?  No one has even seen my local repo but me.

I don't expect anyone to invest into LTCD on the hope that we can make it better.  I expect the market to say what it will based on merits that already exist, and as features are added, the market will adjust accordingly.  

To put it bluntly, and to address the proverbial elephant in the room, Market Cap means very little to me.  I came into this as a volunteer who saw potential to help make something great.  I started mining on best-pool with everyone else.  Premine or no premine, I have talked extensively with the original dev, and am glad to be a part of the team as well as a part of the community.  I don't care if it goes "to the moon" or comes crashing down.  I just want to help build something that can benefit cryptocurrency as a whole, and as a byproduct, the crypto community and economy.

In other words, I want to improve the coin.  Not my bank account.

Major changes like this are still up for debate.  We haven't published an official roadmap just yet, but I do have several topic branches in my local repo where I've been testing various changes and additions.  None of which are going to be published without consensus amongst the team.

No connection to BTCD -- yet.  Plan to apply for SuperNET once some anon functionality is incorporated.

Quick note, the linux wallet link on the official website links to the windows one.  Quick fix, no doubt.

I already have been.  He has already been merging my pull requests.  I still have to sort out master before I send another pull request.  If it makes matters easier, I can do a PoD as well and request access to the official repo, but I'm incredibly overworked right now.  I'll discuss it with him this afternoon.

Because I want all of the code revisions to be reviewed by Robbert before inclusion into the official repository.  This way he is the only person with access to the official repository.  My "fork" started off as unofficial, and I have since been invited to join the team.  All of this can be verified with Robbert.

Also, I needed to make these changes go live quickly so that I could finally get some sleep (that didn't work out so well) and it was published while he was still asleep for the night.  He is from Netherlands, I am located in NC, USA (GMT-5) so timezones tend to get in our way slightly.

Updated releases on github to include linux binaries as well.  Please use the source archive from this link to compile your own.

https://github.com/TrollByFire/LitecoinDark-Unofficial/releases/tag/litecoindark-1.0.1

You can download from here or from the official website once it is live. 

Again, you're on the wrong branch.  from the tag litecoindark-1.0.1 https://github.com/TrollByFire/LitecoinDark-Unofficial/blob/litecoindark-1.0.1/src/main.cpp note that this was already in this release.

Apologies if I sound sound anything other than helpful.  After 2.5 very long days, I'm still unable to sleep.

I should be sleeping, but I will respond: Did you happen to see the post in this very thread where the guy who posted that accusation apologized? Edit: Withdrawn. Lack of sleep caused me to mix up two different users.  The point still stands. If you're legitimately concerned, continue reading.  If you're trolling, continue trolling, but at least try to be amusing/comical about it. -- The best thing I can say is if you're skeptical, stick around and wait.

With that, I have to rest.  Day job, etc.

Odd, I have a working linux compile running on 24.199.222.230.  Try adding this node to see if it helps.  I'll look into it further.  Can you provide a pastebin of the last 200 lines or so of your debug.log?

Until Robbert wakes, we can't merge into the official github -- only he has access to that repo.  You can clone from https://github.com/TrollByFire/LitecoinDark-Unofficial.git -- this release is tagged litecoindark-1.0.1

Apologies for the mixup.  We'll get it resolved ASAP.

Looks like we've been noticed. 

Looks as if the OSX wallet was built against upstream's master branch at HEAD.  This won't sync due to some of the preparations we had made for the hard fork.  I'll get an official OSX wallet up ASAP.

New Windows LitecoinDark wallet (version 1.0.1)

I've been working on several new additions and features for LitecoinDark, and we thought we were in need of a hard fork for this release; thankfully, this is not the case.  This updated wallet does not require a hard fork and will continue to sync with the current network.

The changes in 1.0.1 are minimal, as we have deferred any features requiring a hard fork until a later version.  The Windows installer is also not quite ready yet, and so the zip file contains only the binaries and changelog, as well as the sha512sums of each of the files and the PGP signature for verification of the files' integrity.

You'll note the changes are very minimal, and the primary purpose of this update is to get some solid checkpoints in place both prior to and post halving.  There are many more updates to come in the near future, and I am happy to accept the role of developer on this project along with Robbert.

Download: https://github.com/TrollByFire/LitecoinDark-Unofficial/releases/tag/litecoindark-1.0.1

The original post should be updated to reflect this release, and should be available from http://litecoindark.com/ soon.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The original client used the working directory as the coin's data directory and stored the blockchain, wallet, and config files there.  Also the config file was named coin.conf -- THIS HAS BEEN CHANGED in this update to a more proper location under %AppData%.  You will need to copy at least your wallet.dat and coin.conf into the new data directory and rename your coin.conf to litecoindark.conf.  If it looks like you're missing coins, this is probably why.  Make sure you make these changes before you get worried.

The sources were built from the ltcd-1.0.1 branch on https://github.com/TrollByFire/LitecoinDark-Unofficial/ and changes will be integrated upstream ASAP.



Thank you for all your support; we're glad to have such a great community behind us!

Thank you, though we've just had an official update and I am building a new official OSX wallet as well.  LTCD will likely still accept your bounty as it may be a few days before I get the chance to build the new OSX wallet.

In any case, you are likely to receive a donation from myself very soon.

If you're using sources from git and trying to sync, that would be the cause of the sync issue.  Some of the hardfork code was committed to the official git. We've deferred changes requiring the hard fork until a later release, and I'm working hard to get updated sources and new binaries compiled.


This is fixed in the update.  Rolling it out in the next few hours.

I'm looking into this.  I haven't seen anything fishy in the sources.  Currently going through the blockchain to see where these missing coins went.

This has nothing to do with anyone not being clear on their purpose.  Links in the OP are fine.  I'm giving general advice not to download wallets compiled by third parties.  Anything the LTCD team releases will be signed and verified by us.  If it doesn't come from us, we can't control what's in it.

New wallet is NOT finished yet.  Don't download anything that isn't signed and/or verified by us.  I'm sorting out some minor issues.  We will keep you posted.

OP was updated.  New wallets coming as soon as my build host can compile them.
