Now THERE'S an idea. We COULD go both routes as long as both are optional

Putting things in perspective, I am going to disagree with Douglas: This kind of panic selling has NEVER happened before in VRC. Sorry but I have been here since the get go and no, not of these dimensions. This is A TOTAL PANIC SELLING DUMP. I'd say ALL traders (by ALL I mean the hugely vast majority) are or have already dumped VRC. Not only them, all the small investors and, of course, all nthe weak hands. It is, in fact, safe to say that most if not ALL of the VRC outside of the 10 million that are staking -as per your count, Douglas-, have been not just sold but probably sold, in panic, a few times in many cases. The proportions of the dump are epic.

That said, we must have reaching the bottom because there should be no more people willing to sell at any moment. This is the community that support VRC, on their own. No outside traders, no outside investors, no groups, no whales. Just like at the beginning or VRC, only enormously more solid. Bottom price will be what will be, but that will be the REAL value of VRC as supported by it's stakeholders.

This gives -should give- the dev a premium opportunity to really stop the presses and evaluate. With perspective. And stop listening to the single requests that have poured here through the panic dump. There's no "saving the coin". The coin is saved. By those 10 million VRC staking and the community that owns them (plus the few million more still on the exchanges but that will not be sold at these prices or below no matter what). That community has given your their full support, especially bin the rollback decision. That community wants you to keep setting higher standards. That community supports regulation -which is coming and is inevitable-. That community doesn't support, regardless of the petitions, a shadow market (decentralized) that serves only interests outside the law. And that community supports every and all efforts to make sure that thieves will not benefit from attacking VRC no matter what, no mattter in one or 100 rollbacks are necessary. The so-called integrity of the block chain is Bullshit. The integrity that you have to defend, because your stake holders demand so, is the integrity of the coin: That the investors are protected and that the vendors are protected. That's the only integrity that counts to the stakeholders and to the future vendors and customers that will adopt Vericoin.

So I invite you to pause, evaluate and take advantage -and a strong forward, proactive position- of the new circumstances and SET THE PATH to follow, whether the other people in crypto like it or not. Your obligation is not to Lee, not to anyone in particular. Your obligation is to those stakeholders thata keep 10 million VRC staking. They have spoken loud and clear to you. You need ton listen to them and act in consequence.

hey, was 1.3.4 a hard-fork inducing update or can I stay on 1.3.3 if I dont care to use veribit and etc now?

I have a "Network Alert" coming from my Vericoin wallet. Does anybody know what it means? Anything to worry about?

Anyways I just bought some VRC right now, because it's at a good price. Don't forget what you read previously about creating the best decentralized anon. Your team has the talent for such a goal, one which is more realistic.

Every time before we where at a technical make or break point, we would get news about something "soon". Any chance to make healthy corrections where lost during the pumps. Now I think the day traders realize this won't go up 100% a day everyday and they are panic'd.

F'kin idiots.

Meanwhile, Everyone runs around like a chicken with their head cut off, No leadership, sigh.

Lost 1/3 our value in a day. Anytime I tried to get things on track, nothing. Nobody is near NYC that can try to make an effort to go outside and drop a paper wallet in a few iconic locations and create a game and some buzz about vericoin? Honestly, where is the coordination, the "team" is 3 people and a loosely affiliated gang of helpers is madness. Where do people go to solve issues, and create things for VRC?

I want to help create something big here but the more I think about it. Current money flow is showing that people are giving up on vericoin in masses in the last day alone? How are we going to create anything, bring in any support and create products for vericoin if nobody knows / cares about it?


I am so frustrated its hard to put into words. We can do better, but the more I think about it. Maybe its time to move on if nobody else gets it, or cares to make it better. I am sure someone will chime in and say this or that, but the fact of the matter is the products aren't wowing people enough. The words and hype created was bigger than any feature we released, and this is sad. Simply having a vision to be mainstream doesn't look like its going to be enough.

Last payout for me was just yesterday 7/22.  Pool looks like it is down for maintenance now


EDIT:  Back online

I must have entered the twilight zone...

Seems like I am getting more from my mining, is that due to the price being low ? this is nice

No expert here but this happened to me with another wallet once.  Norton anti-virus had quarantined that file.  I restored it through Norton and was good to go.  I also told Norton to ignore it in the future.

FYI opening the new Mac 1.3.4 wallet I get a popup alert "Current Version: VeriCoin 1.3.3". Needs to be updated.
