This is a coin to watch. If it really integrates with Facebook and Twitter, who knows what could happen?

So, basically, there will be a version 1.4.7 first, and then the 1.5.0. Can I just install the versions and let the coins stay in my wallet?

Will Alt.market launch in Q1 or Q2 of 2018? Or even later than that?

While Bryce hasn't commented on a specific time frame, with the funding they're about to get, it should happen sooner than it would've otherwise. My guess would be sometime Q1, possibly as a beta invite only or something at first, with it in full operation in Q2, but don't quote me on that.

Speaking of quotes, Bryce is quoted as the CEO of Alt Market in this Bloomberg article:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-07/as-bitcoin-heads-for-prime-time-a-wild-session-raises-questions

Thanks for the reply and the info. Read the article, nice that they quoted him.

Cool! That's definitely a good thing for RADS.

Voted, but what is it about exactly :S?

Does any one here having problem on synchronizing the wallet? It suddenly not working and i don't if i need to rewrite the conf of radium wallet?

When it comes to staking, i didn't receive any since it taking days to accumulate.

Try adding nodes from here:

take a look at charts and you'll see how easy price can top.  Even in 2016 Radium was doing well and if the volume spreads out, the price will rise up exponentially.

Yeah, there's not that much volume, but it's easy for the price to go up. I think in-between 40.000-45.000 satoshi's is the bottom really. The price can only go up from there.

There should be an update today or tomorrow, I think. Am really looking forward to it! Smiley

A lot of people have been asking about connections, so here is a quick explanation.

Disclaimer: The following applies to the “standard” c++ QT wallet.
TL:DR: More than 3 is good. You can not have more than 16 outgoing connections, but you may get more if other nodes connect to you.

What is a connection?

A connection is simply two wallets talking to each-other. Connections are classified as either outgoing or incoming, based on who it was initiated by. An outgoing is established when your wallet reaches out asks to connect to somebody else’s wallet (peer). An incoming connection occurs when a peer connects to you.

How does the wallet find connections?

When a wallet first starts it has zero connections, and , it needs some IP addresses to reach out to in order to new peers. There are several ways a wallet will try and get its first connection
  • Query DNS seeds for a list of peers
  • Use static IP peers coded into the wallet.
  • Load a list of known peers from peers.dat
  • Load list of peers from walletname.conf file
Once a wallet gets its first connection, it will then ask the peer for a list of other peers it can try and connect to.

How many do you need?

In order for the wallet to work correctly, it needs to have a MINIMUM of one connection. A wallet can work perfectly fine, using only one high quality connection to the network. It is desired that a wallet have more than one connection for redundancy and network health. A total of three to five connections is more than enough for the wallet to work correctly.

But aren't more connections better?

Well, it CAN be, in terms of the health of the entire network, however after 3–5 connections there really is little improvement in wallet function. Each connection requires resources to maintain, and the more connections you have the harder your computer will need to work in order to communicate with all the other peers. Once your wallet has a stable connection to the network, more connections will not increase the speed or improve staking for PoS coins.

I have 16, BUT I WANT MORRRR!

Well, then, be patient. Each connection requires additional CPU power to send, receive, and process the transmitted messages. Most wallets have a hard coded limit of 16 outgoing connections, so that your wallet does not create more work for the network than necessary. To help new wallets gain connections even if your already have 16, the incoming connection default limit is set at 125. This means your wallet can not ask for more than 16 connections, but it can accept more connections from other nodes with low connection counts. Because of these limits, only way to get more than 16 connections is to have your wallet open for a long period of time and allow other new nodes to connect to you.

A Note about AV, Firewalls, Routers, Seeds, and Bears, Oh MY!

Sometimes there are things in the way blocking your wallet from getting more connections. If a wallet is getting ZERO connections, be suspicious for some form of port forwarding or blocking issues with a router or firewall. If you are stuck at 16 connections and never get any more, perhaps your network is not configured to allow for incoming connections.

Just asking a question regarding staking, please.
I have about 100 RADS in my wallet and I have been staking them for well over a month.
I do not stake 24/7. I stake about 8 hours a day Mon to Sat.
I am yet to receive anything from staking, sadly.
Am I doing something wrong?

I am connected to 16 connections and open for staking.
It just constantly says 9-13 days for reward.....

Thanks.



100 RADS is really not a lot to stake. I found that staking works better if you stake 24 hours a day. If it takes 9-13 days for a reward and you stake 8 hours a day, then it should take a little over a month for you to get a reward. 9-13 days becomes 27-39 days basically, plus you don't stake sunday, so you should receive a reward anytime soon I think.

Thanks for the info.
OK, will just have to wait it out then.
What sort of rewards have you been getting, if you don't mind?

the 1 reward per 1000 RADS is generally true. If I calculate all my rewards then I've been getting a little less than 1 reward per 1000 RADS, but not by much. If you can afford it, then I advise you to get at least 500 RADS, then you should get a reward every other day.

When will there be another announcement? Tomorrow?

Is there a way to get an invitation to the Slack channel?

Radium aint using slack anymore, its Telegram they use.

Come join us here! https://t.me/RadiumOfficial


Ah, I figured you still used slack as well since it's in your signature and on the first page. I am already in the Telegram channel. Great community!

Wherever it goes, none of us was expecting it to increase that much  Grin
yes...and if the market corrects...people will cry...

If the market corrects, altcoins could go up in value again?
57  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Reaches 9000 USD on: November 26, 2017, 02:37:21 PM
Bitcoin should reach 10k this year.
58  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [RADS] Radium - Bringing Advanced Utility to the Blockchain on: November 25, 2017, 09:14:22 AM
I get aprox. 1 block per 1000 coins and have been for about 6 mos. 
I have never went a day without blocks, not 1 day ever. I'm not sure what your doing wrong, maybe not very many coins could cause you to miss on the lottery type reward once in a while.  or did you not ck the auto optimize box and change the preferred block size to less than 300.
Also I'm very excited about the changes coming.


How do I "Ck the auto optimize box and change the preferred block size to less than 300"?
59  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen to all coins when bitcoin reach to 10k? on: November 25, 2017, 09:11:31 AM
Well, the money that people put in BTC will have to go somewhere, so altcoins could go up again.

Anyone had any problems staking for the past week or so?

I've had problems with staking, I don't get 1 reward per a 1000 RADS. Maybe because more and more people started staking?
