Sweet, Expect an email from a very strange gmail address and we'll figure out when we can talk on the Gerbil-hangout  Maybe I'll rope in some friends who are smarter than me. I see other big benefits to the user from this. You can have the wallet constantly synchronized so you don't have to worry about it bogging down your computer when you have to update it if you haven't used it in days or weeks. In fact it won't bog your computer or network down at all, pretty much ever. Down the road, there will be people who only have a wallet on their phone, and they won't want the wallet constantly bogging that down and draining their battery. People like me have the wallet on a laptop, which gets moved every day and has to shut down a lot, which constantly interrupts staking. The list goes on. Thanks Yep, searching hard for mobile devs. And staking is def an issue on mobiles due to battery consumption. The idea to lease out your stakes is good, because then you could essentially stake on your mobile, and recieve payment for your lease even with comp off. Its a good idea. If ya got smart friends, bring em over to the silk side. (-: Also talking with some devs about the auto mobile industry, as lots of mobiles are now built into new cars. Probably a bit far off but being taken into consideration. Mobile is the future. |

Question about staking: Is my wallet staking while I don't have it open on my computer, or while my computer is turned off? My understanding is that it is not (please correct me if wrong). And if it does not stake while my computer is off or wallet is closed, is it possible to have a "cloud-staking" service, in which a server-based solution is provided that stores a user's wallet and stakes 24/7? It seems this would be a win-win situation for the users, the provider of the service and for the SilkConomy. - While we (users) may have to pay a relatively small portion of our staking interest in return for the service, we should earn more overall because we will earn interest 24/7/365 and have solid backup to their wallet.
- The provider of this service will benefit by receiving a portion of the users' staking coinage in return for providing this service to the users
- The SilkConomy will benefit from the statistical increase in the amount of stake that is being proven
If my understanding of any of this is whack, please upgrade my knowledge. I'm always happy to find out I'm wrong so I can learn things right. I'd be happy to join the hangout to talk about this. If you don't have time to investigate this, I am sure I can get the right people to happily make this happen. Peace, Yep it is true, when your computer is off your wallet is not staking. I believe I read about this suggestion in ethereum as a possibility of building a service, where you can 'lease' your portion of stake to another user, so you don't have to have the computer on via smart contracts. I know that nxt does this, so is definitely a possibility. Sure I'll add ya to the party! |

how does the back up file work as i want too make sure it works before i delete all the silkcoin data as i had 28300 coins in it?i did back it up but not too sure how it works
find the folder in Yourdrive:\Users\Youruser\AppData\Roaming\Silkcoin and copy your wallet.dat to another folder or to a usbdrive After you delete all and install the new version, replace/overwrite the wallet.dat in Yourdrive:\Users\Youruser\AppData\Roaming\Silkcoin with the file wallet.dat you saved first thanks, i have the new version of the wallet back and it is syncing, the transactions are on it but not on the ballance at all but when i look at the transactions they all say conflicted,is that normall untill it syncs? and i have no unconfirmed balance Yes everything you've done during the block chain will post as the the block chain syncs. There are sticks we are working on at 60, 60.5, 61, and 61.5 for some users. If you find it sticks too long, just restart the client. Once everything syncs everything should be normal! If not shoot another post or a pm and we'll dig deeper. |

Geeee man that was swift and ruff from them not going to happen. Anyway, I can't post there, the thread is locked But I posted few big signs for people to see them and come over here or to the new site for the real thing I don't know, but if we flood a little bit those old threads with posts like that, from time to time, maybe we'll get more people here I guess the thread owner can remove them, but will we get banned or something if we quote too many of them, Arteleis? No I don't the the thread owners care lol.. last pic of old dev i saw in facebook was on a beach.. Just try to avoid conversation and link any new posts here. Bout all we could do. Pmed mod and he said the don't close threads over this kind of thing. just the way it is. |

When does the ticker symbol change on the exchanges?
We're just talking about that, have to be careful that the exchanges don't change the apis, and only change the ticker. May have to peg wallet to website, so we're still working it out. |

Um... yeh.. old dev team dumped their premine, crashed the market, left all the exchanges frozen... welcome to the new community and development team! Just finishing cleaning up the mess left behind.  |

find the folder in Yourdrive:\Users\Youruser\AppData\Roaming\Silkcoin and copy your wallet.dat to another folder or to a usbdrive After you delete all and install the new version, replace/overwrite the wallet.dat in Yourdrive:\Users\Youruser\AppData\Roaming\Silkcoin with the file wallet.dat you saved first Remember that this is a hidden folder. So search %appdata% to locate or remove hidden folders option. |

When clicking backup in the 'actions' tab. It will ask you save a copy of your wallet. Just place it in a folder you think is safe, and after saving, open that folder and verify that it is there. You can tell the differences between .dat files by their size. Generally the longer you've been on the blockchain and more silk you have in it the larger the file. After you've verified that it has been backed up properly (for eg. i might start a new folder on my desktop entitled silk resources, backup into that folder temporary. long term, better to keep the wallet backed up onto a flash drive) follow the uninstallation process. Most users should be just able to 1. Search %appdata% 2. Double click roaming 3. Double click and enter silkcoin folder 4. Delete everything in silkcoin folder except wallet.dat 5. Run new installer. If runtime error exists repeat uninstallation process, but also use silkcoin uninstaller and restart computer. ALWAYS ENSURE YOU'RE WALLET.DAT IS BACK UP AND VERIFIED IN FOLDER YOU SAVED IT TO BEFORE UNINSTALLING! And if your wallet.dat is safely stored. So is all your silk.  |

i have got old and new version now but non will work now when i try to open either one i get ( this application has requested the runtime to terminate in unusual way)what do i do?please help me.
thanks
May cause some runtime issues with old version, so need to complete uninstall and reboot to fix anyproblems. search %appdata% click 'roaming' go in to silkcoin folder. right click and copy wallet.dat - make new folder someplace safe. paste wallet.dat in that new folder totally safe. delete silkcoin folder in appdata. Run the uninstaller, restart computer. run new version, replace new wallet.dat with your old safely stored wallet.dat in %appdata%/roaming/silkcoin - note:there will be the hidden %appdata% and regular appdata. Don't confuse. May cause some runtime issues with old version, so need to complete uninstall and reboot to fix any problems. Not all systems will require complete reboot, but this method will fix the problem for everyone. DO NOT DELETE YOUR WALLET.DAT FROM ORIGINAL UNTIL SAFELY BACKED UP!!! This is your SILK! Let us know if there are any more issues. |

Wait, that icon was on accident? I feel a little less silly now. I've been sitting here disgruntled, thinking it was on purpose.
I know it's a minor thing, but I'm anally retentive when it comes to design. Stuff like that feels like a pebble in my shoe or a piece of popcorn kernel under my gum. I am SO psyched about the revival of SilkCoin! <3 Make sure to join us in google chat - hanzlambrecht@gmail.comYou gotser self an old version there. I am pretty sure I have the most recent v. of the wallet - 1.1.0 beta. I clicked the link in this thread's OP to download the updated wallet. I'll make sure to join you in chat though Yeh ya gotser self an older version. We've updated 12 or 13 times since your version from thread. Lots happening in silk hangouts. Try this one and post what ya think. (-; |

The Silkcoin community is in the last stages of the takeover and rebuilding phase. Countless hours have been spent laying the new foundation of the coin and an official ANN SILK thread will come soon. We have to make sure that all details have been addressed before we make our first impression. "We want to be remembered by the community for our untold story of how love, courage and persistence can redeem even the lowest human betrayals. For the coin that led the people to freedom and truth. For the camel that survived 33 days without water only to rise again and continue the march. For opening ancient pathways into modern worlds." The new Silkcoin feature that I'm looking forward to the most is the community voting platform. From what I've read, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, is that owners of silk will be able to vote on the direction and priority of ecosystem happenings. The more silk you own (or vote?) the more influence you have and the more you can control your environment. This, I believe, will create community activity and a sense of ownership, worth, and passion for the ecosystem. The voting platform (the SilkTemplum ?) will force people to stake their silk in order to vote and be heard. This will move silk off the exchanges and into the wallets to further proof-of-stake. p.s. in the mean time, show some buy support and donate to further development Donations for DevelopmentSILK: BQLUqZZHD2R9jFRqQp4gVrxJgAkcjzCb3u http://54.191.71.3:2850/a/BQLUqZZHD2BTC: 1SiLkm9SWbzQnqzyG1D2iW52sp9W3DB8q https://blockchain.info/address/1SiLkm9SWbzQnqzyG1D2iW52sp9W3DB8qEscrow services by https://www.badass.sx/ Full release tomorrow.

Just downloaded the new Windows wallet. So far, so GREAT! Only two eensy little things that I noticed:
1. there is no sync progress icon / bar to let me know where I am in the syncing process
2. there is a itty bitty GUI glitch in the upper right hand corner
BEAUTIFUL job though, guys. Looking forward to seeing the camel ride again!
