Heya! Thanks for the continued support! Word of mouth is still the best advertising, so we certainly thank you for that!

We have a very limited number of the stickers on-hand, but those are reserved for solar stakers and other promotions. I have considered the height of my town's water tower but, I would need larger than 5"x7" for that.

Because we would be paying for shipping twice, we have not made the stickers available in the marketplace. We could not sell them for under 10$ even taking a loss. At the present, the best way would be obtaining them from Tee Spring's themselves: https://teespring.com/stores/no-tease-tees   Even that is not very attractive at 6$ + shipping. 3"x5" are sold also, but at the same price.

If we can find a 'bulk' production of stickers at a reasonable price and maintain them in inventory, we certainly can and will. We will discuss this at Saturday's meeting. I think some community members might have a good option and we can add them to the marketplace at a fair price. Perhaps with shipping included!

Thanks for expressing your interest!  Of course, if anyone in the community does have a needed use of a sticker that could benefit EGC somehow (publicity stunts excluded), we certainly can get them to you. Any promotion at, for example, some trade or industry show or the like where the EGC logo could be displayed (and not be as vandalism) could be fruitful introductions. We would be more than willing to help and thankful. Perhaps we can get them displayed at different renewable companies' offices that myself and other community members have been in discussions with previously. Again, we will discuss that also during the next meeting.

Because of the mentioned costs, maybe a raffle of a sticker or two makes more sense for the time being. I will get that sorted and in the marketplace today.

Many thanks to today's participants! I will get a summary recorded, uploaded, and posted ASAP.

Have a great weekend! Keep warm!

EDIT (Sunday, mid-day): Waiting on some things before recording this past week's update, so hopefully I have more news.
EDIT (Monday): There will be no video update for last week. We will catch up on Dec 9th. Of course, any announcement-worthy news would be made in the meantime. Have a good week.

Here is the link to today's hangout...

...which is now open. See you there!

When we get it working on all devices. Version 1.7 requires some new network functionalities. Those are not working on all Android devices consistently.

If you can wait no longer, version 1.6 for Android is still available, https://evergreencoin.org/download/

Here is your quick video update for the week ending Nov 25th., https://youtu.be/9iUnqB6W14U

To summarize:

Price - Whoa bitcoin! But 30 cents USD is a fine spot to be.
v1.7 adoption - > 25%, yea!
v1.7 android - we have isolated the problem, thanks testers.
TM (R) - official as of Nov. 6th.
2018 roadmap -  eta: mid December.
Giving Tuesday - not taking part.


Sorry for the delay in recording the video, now 2 days later.

Thanks and have a great week!

No worries. Yes, things are getting colder and colder. Fortunately, we are experiencing a bit of a warm-spell this weekend here.

A summary video from Saturday's meeting will be uploaded on Sunday. Sorry for the delay. The meeting itself was only James (IEO) and I, which was fine as we did have much to discuss. Of course, the summary video will include that and other 'current EGC events' updates for the community. Because of 'personal events' (aka omg, that's a lot of corn) I did not record it immediately following, but did hold the hangout open for 2 hours for attendees to join. I am sure the holidays are already spilling into peoples' schedules and more could not attend. Again, sorry for the wait.

EDIT: Keep warm!

EDIT 2: Will upload Monday. Sorry for the continued delay.

Here is today's link, https://hangouts.google.com/hangouts/_/ww622jddkfcsjch3vf6hvh44cme

All are welcome. You do not need a mic nor camera. There is text group chat on most devices, if you need to or chose to only use that. You're welcome to join and only listen or only join to ask a quick question or something. After the meeting, the next hour or so, we will record a summary. That summary is later posted to YouTube.

Feel free to stop by and spend some time with some like-minded friends. See you there!

Thanks.

A 2018 roadmap will be made in the near future. We have been discussing at the meetings briefly, but have yet to draft one. Of course, goals not meet in this current roadmap will be reevaluated and repositioned in the new. This should come as no alarm.

We do not select the marketcap. Targeting might be naive of the ability to do that. The only target remains a better environment, for which we live in, leveraging cryptocurrency. Though higher marketcap will be pleasant side effect, as it has been, of focusing on that goal. We have effected marketcap very positively in 2017 and that will undoubtedly continue to in 2018.

Thank you for your interest. You are more than welcome to attend the community meetings to discuss in-person and in more detail. Our next meeting is tomorrow, November 25th, at 17:00 GMT. A link will be posted prior to the start. Your opinion would be appreciated.

Agreed. Thanks Giz!

I did finally received the finalized paperwork from my government! The trademark (logo and name) is fully registered.

It took over a year! The original paperwork was filed Sept 9th, 2016. It took 19 steps (filing and approval of paperwork at each step*) to complete.

Do not confuse this with the incorporation or the 501(c)(3). Those legal matters are different but, proceeding as planned.

This Thanksgiving, I am happy to have one less chore on my plate and thankful to see EverGreenCoin continue to grow! Happy Thanksgiving!

EDIT: * = better elaboration of the paperwork steps involved.

No problem at all.

V1.7 does have new checkpoints but there is absolutely no reason v1.6, or v1.5 for that matter, will have a problem.

It is just nice to have the network, certainly the exchanges, on the latest and greatest.

Thanks for the kind words!

Cryptopia has placed their EverGreenCoin wallet in maintenance mode whilst they upgrade to v1.7. It should not be in maintenance mode very long for the upgrade.


EDIT: They have removed maintenance mode. A test was performed and was successful. Happy trading!
fyi, still waiting on Bittrex, though their wallet remains open. Which is fine and I am sure they will be updating as soon as possible.

Many thanks, GizFreak!

Friendly reminder, please upgrade to EverGreenCoin v1.7 at your earliest convenience. Upgrading is painless. You only need to execute the new binary and not the old. Though as with any upgrade, it's best to be safe and backup the wallet.dat file from within the data directory before upgrading. The wallet.dat file can be found on Windows: %appdata%/EverGreenCoin ( C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\EverGreenCoin\ ), MAC: ~/Library/Application Support/EverGreenCoin/ , and Linux: ~/.evergreencoin/ ( /home/<username>/.evergreencoin/ ). If you have any issue, please see support.

I am glad to see v1.7 is already more prevalent than v1.5.

Service providers have been updating as well. Non-mandatory upgrades are always a little slower, of course.

The Android v1.7 wallet is still being readied.

Another layer of paperwork to complete for the 501(c)(3) awaits this week, that will be submitted ASAP. On that note, still waiting for a response from "Giving Tuesday", though we do meet all requirements.

It's actually a nice day and the little snow we had is melting! I hope to get much accomplished.

Have a great week, everyone!

Thanks for your continued support, starrman!

Many people have contributed, and in many ways, to EverGreenCoin's success. All of which are greatly appreciated.

Have a great weekend everyone!

I also forgot to mention, James of IEO is seeking to have the investment the EverGreenCoin community already made ($1500) matched by his local Crawford county Pennsylvania government! We did complete and submit that paperwork and expect a response in December. IEO stands to gain $3000 from EGC's $1500 investment and purchase of founding shares of IEO!

Every drop counts, but if we can make every drop count twice, we certainly will!

I forgot to mention during the recording, EverGreenCoin is aiming to take part in "Giving Tuesday" https://www.givingtuesday.org/

On November 28th donations to nonprofits via Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/GivingTuesday) will be matched dollar for dollar by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation! EverGreenCoin was submitted to be added during the hangout and a response was already received that the EverGreenCoin Foundation will be added within 24 hours.

Details to follow.

We have investment tools that may be helpful: https://evergreencoin.org/markets/market-analysis/

Hi TheSignGuy! Hope all's well.

When you do get a chance to inspect the new version, I do hope you like what you find. I believe you are the one that mentioned to me the unlock button not reacting the way it should in certain scenarios. Much work went into covering all those many scenarios and having the software visually react appropriately and not just with the unlock button. You will find the Stake for Charity dialog react much more intuitively also. Walking the end-user through all the steps in plain and easy to understand terminology and visual cues like icons and coloring. Not to mention, the new system tray icon!

The link you mention is for our current EverGreenCoin Solar Staker (patent pending) units using CHIP. No, they are not 'out' per se, but ramping up as fast as hurdles can be overcome. There has been some interesting twists unfolding. We are readying to install more of the current units, but not production manner as of yet. We are still a bit away from that, but of course will be the centerpiece of the next roadmap, which is being readied. Currently we do not have enough of a supply of components or a streamlined instillation to distribute units widely, but we are fighting those shortcomings on many fronts, in many ways, and to the best of our ability. Don't be alarmed when / if you see those icons appearing with different Single Board Computers (ie Raspberry Pi). While more EverGreenCoin Solar Stakers are being installed soon, these will be installed and maintained under a more watchful eye. Community members wishing to contribute to the solar staker, or any EverGreenCoin initiative, are kindly asked to open that communication with any preferred method.

This will be discussed in-depth during Saturday's meeting as will many topics. I hope you will be able to join us. James from IEO has already confirmed he will be attending and we do plain to have a demonstration lined up for the recording. So many questions, indeed! It will be a busy meeting, I look forward to the productivity. Of course and as always, I will do my best to briefly yet clearly summarize that for the recorded part of the meeting.

Hope to see you then!
