I think it was free for at least 6 months. I did try Win10, hated it, its 100% full on Spy wear from microsoft. Not to mention how more un-user friendly it all is.  So i reverted back to win 8.1, which i have to say i am very happy with.

Also for people posting "it works great on my OS"  I CLEARLY stated, i wanted to hear from Windows 8.1 Users/stakers only.  As it seems like this is the OS that could be the issue.

But, no worries, i will wait for new HTML 5 wallet, hopefully Santa will bring me one.

I will download another coins pos wallet and see what happens.

Would love to hear from other windows 8.1 users.  I even made sure the computer was fully started. Made breakfast and still when i turnes on wallet it would hang.  I was thinking i was trying ti start the wallet to quuckly or something.

Anyhow.  Must be my win8.1 OS.

Will wait for new wallet before i try again.

i can tell you exactly the Stages of prices this coin will see.  But i wont, although my Sig is a good indication of how the Stratis charts will take shape.

But it will take years, if you want 60k+ sats, you have to have a long term mindset.

Hi Carlo, will check out the slack, many thanks for the info, very much appreciated.

EDIT: I need an invite to slack, but slack is annoying as you have to make a new password each time, im already in 5 slack chats. I will keep my eyes here and on twitter.

Buy support just dropped under 1,000 bitcoin...  who ever is painting this chart is making it crystal clear 180k range is in sight.

I downloaded the  latest wallet  (did not use a bootstrap)

It took 3 days to download blockchain  (as i did not have my computer on 24/7)

Then the next days when i went to start if for the first time, the logo would appear, with no text and thats it.  Just hanging.
this happened every day, until i moved the coins, yet again, from wallet back to the exchange.

It used to happen most of the time before also, this is the main reason i moved my coins to an exchange.

It is a bug with the wallet, my computer has very little programs on it, real bare bones stuff.

i am buying below 6k no problem at all. But i have long term views 2+years to see big returns.

Would be really great to see some actually updates here, talk about how things are progressing, instead of this place just looking like a ETC Fan Club.

I bought a ton at 210 (i was the one that started the pump up to 220 by buying up and taking out the wall at 210.)  So i very rarely make bad moves, but this is starting to feel like one.  I will hold for x10 from here, where i think ETC will go in a year or so.

Would just like a little more info/updates/news.  

a stop would force someone to unload down to X price?  odd.

Also, CC, get your signature dude, its easy to add here.

Huge Dump on poloniex down to 27,600 !!!!!! I can't believe that anyone would want to sell off like this,
i highly suspect someone accidentally clicked sell with a missing "0" and ended up dumping instead of placing a buy order before.
I know i have done this myself on poloniex, very costly mistake!

 Looking on the bright side, i am sure the coins went to smart people who understand the future this coin has,
 so who ever is dumping is going to be crying in a few months thats for sure.


Hopefully staking will rise again, i see  44% only staking .



I did download the wallet for my windows 8 computer, it took 3 days to download blockchain, but for some reason on my windows 8.1 computer the wallet does not work very well. I always have problems when i come to open it, often the logo will appear with no text and it will just hang, maybe something the Dev team can look at.  Just a little bug that i am sure can be easily fixed.

FANTASTIC Q&A

I have to say the Dev handled the questions very well and gave really good answers,  he reminds me of the $IOC Dev Joel, when he first started IOC, i hope he has the same staying power and forward thinking as the IOC dev.   I have gone quite BIG into Stratis, its my favourite Long Term Hold after I/O Coin.


Keep up the great work Dev, i have ultimate faith in you and your project.  Its great to see the British on the Altcoin Map.

Fully Agree!   Looking at Bittrex, i see the price has been bought up to 27K   as more and more people learn about the "futuristic"  (i think is an appropriate word) developments happening, the more the coin will grow, which is great for investors and developers, its always nice to see your hard work and dedication get the recognition it deserves in reflection of the price.

Looking forward to the Tau-Chain release, which i believe will be the next and biggest release?


Also. NOTE: To anyone wanting to ask questions about Comparing this project against others.

There is a really simple answer to this.  Simply, You cant.  
So please dont ask, there are a couple of videos, pod casts with Ohad talking about the whole project, i will try and find link, its amazing to listen to and will make you understand more, although it is highly technical and advanced whats happening here, i am not ashamed to hold my hands up by saying i only understood about 30% of what was said.

Correct!  Guys stop supporting this BS.

Take your bitcoin out of Waves and put it into something worthwhile, there are many great coins out there,  you guys are just supporting this farce by buying Waves.  Have a word with yourself in the mirror and say "Enough is Enough"  how many times do you want to get fooled.

Yes, it MIGHT get a pump one day, maybe to 100k before it dies a slow death, Dev dont need to work ever and wont work now he has multi millions.
So seriously, stop supporting this BS and look for something else to invest in, because you are wasting your time here.

If you think Ethereum wont grow into the next Mirosoft of the Tech world you are crazy, if you think this coin can even walk in Ethereums mighty shadow, you are certifiable.   I nearly bought this coin on polo at 31k sats, my gutt said no, price today 28,600...  Market is speaking, listen to the market.

Well quite frankly you do not want to piss off the Empire!  Darth Vitalik and his army of Storm Troopers, because looking around, i dont see and Hans Solo or Luke Skywalker here... probally a few Hairy Ewoks, thats about it.

So it makes total sense to stay on the Empires good side, until ETC has enough forces to make a challenge, but the force is strong with Darth Vitalik, his power grows daily, his blockchain is creeping into world leading businesses....  ETC has to keep the pedal to the metal, full force ahead...

Future Bright for ETC, Keep Darth Happy you must!

When the full node is out, you can double that and then double it again, Merry Christmas to all 

WoW...  Where is the Dev?

Starting to look real shaky around here. I hope all is well and the Dev is simply working hard to ninja surprise us with some amazing developments.

Its OK you can go and keep Lord  (Scammer) Ashdrake company 

But joking aside, its good to see you still have your sense of humour andthis coin is solid, i know it, you know it, plenty of room in the ocean for a good feast!

Stratis will go to 50k+ with a polo add = polo pump.  Buying under 10k sats  in around 3-6 months time for an easy x5 return.

That is, if the devs keep their nose to the grindstone.

IDEA

Just looking at the tweets, like this  https://twitter.com/IO_Coin/status/777548846322900992


Welcoming new IOC Country Managers.  The idea came to me.  It would be really great if the Country managers were made to feel special and a great way of doing this would be to give these fantastic people a nice Welcome Pack.

It could include:

Mission Statement  (printed on nice paper)
You could go the extra step and have a nice IOC logo seal made to seal letters with official wax seal
 (that would be super cool and could go a little viral online, imagine the posts that would be made about it)
Like these here > http://www.nostalgicimpressions.com/Create_Your_Own_Custom_Wax_Seal_Stamp_p/xxx.htm?gclid=CPnx7taOp88CFQw6Gwods5kNYw&gdffi=0ed5f33a5b31457eb02d827858c53bd1&gdfms=165AE6720B934A08899527E0400CD757

Or you can get ones that emboss paper > https://www.blumberg.com/invoice.cgi?rm=view_cluster;cluster_id=873782&gdffi=e1d4341c03d44e52beab75ae49926f56&gdfms=15BCFA7856234F67822E9DAFC37CA0C2&gclid=CNLhl4mPp88CFQuNGwodnYsA0Q

(Yes, i know its all about "Digital" but people still like and love physical things)

Tshirt.  I/OCoin Team Leader  (or some text like that) Cohnhead here, kindly volenteered to have some T-shrts printed, see post #3663

" if someone can help and give me a cool 1-2 color design for screen printing id be happy to throw in a t-shirt (maybe IOC logo with a interesting tag line)"

One of the physical coins (new or old versions) (i cna supply the original versions)
Maybe make a pin badge also.

The Crystal, Neon Light up, USB drives with the IOC logo that joel has.

And anything else you can think of, you could even get bags made to put it in, all at relatively little cost.  Maybe 25 euros max per Welcome Pack.


People want to feel part of a team and this would be a really fantastic way of doing it.

I know if i received a Welcome Pack like this, not only would i be made to feel special, i would be talking about it all over social media also.

BobSurplus blew most of his Bitcoin on futures, he hardly has 2 bitcoins to rub together these days, that why he has turned into a troll to fight over peanuts!

Stratis ain't dipping under 5k thats for sure, id highly recommend getting all you can in this range. Quote me on this in a month or two time.

Poloniex will ask what special features this coin has EG: what makes it special/different.  This is the most highly technical coin i have ever seen, i really would not know how to answer this.

Would be great if there was a web designer here also, could really do with a nice looking website.
