Hello all, We are in early discussion, but it appears we may have found our guy to assist us with entry to China, translation services, etc. More to come on this soon. In the interim, we would like to get the community to start pushing to get CBX added to Bter. CBX is listed on their voting page (currently as our old name CGB - Cryptogenic Bullion) so we have a head start already. I have requested Bter to update their info in accordance with rebranding. https://bter.com/votingThank you in advance. |

Hello all, Raizor has been hard at work with the IRC integration into the Vault and is making some nice progress. Still work to be done, but we do have a functioning implementation to test and fine tune for future public release. The more I think about this feature, the more excited I am about it. It truly is a convenient way to bring the community together. While your in your Vault staking, sending or receiving funds - you will have the luxury to visit with others in the community as well as to receive live tech support. Good stuff coming, great work Raizor! Here is a little screen shot teaser: |

May 29th, 2015 Announcement – Community Support Needed
The CBX Core Team is proud to announce some ambitious development plans to unfold in the coming months. We are confident that when executed, these developments will catapult CBX back into the top tier of crypto coins and redefine it as the premier crypto-currency/commodity that fully fills the niche of a distributed, low mint, low inflation storage of wealth – truly ‘The Digital Precious Metal’.
These plans consist of 3 distinct stages outlined in our to be released white paper draft, each requiring a hard fork. The estimated time for development is 2-4 months per stage. Our lead developer, raizor has the skill-set to implement these evolutionary stages as he has evidenced in his top-notch work already contributed to the project, but it will take a significant amount of his time.
We are reaching out to the current Crypto Bullion community, and any who care to come along for the ride to help in making this project come to fruition. We have set a target fund raising goal of 10 BTC per stage or 30 BTC for the entire project. This is a great opportunity for each individual to take ownership of the project and help to control the resurgence of CBX. CBX hit an all-time high in December of 2013 of over $5 per coin so it has shown the ability to grow 100x its current price.
Our thought is to conduct the fundraising in stages to make it better manageable.
* STAGE 1: 2-4 months development / Cost 10 BTC
Fork 1: Fortify PoS Security by removing coinage and rewarding active nodes. Max annual PoS (1.5% per year * total coin supply) will be distributed every 10 minutes amongst coins actively staked during that window.
* STAGE 2: 2-4 months development / Cost 10 BTC
Fork 2: Fortify PoW Security and slow blockchain growth
a) Convert to sha256
b) Merge mine with Bitcoin
c) Change target block time to 10 min (currently 1 minute target) & multiply reward be 10x
* STAGE 3: 2-4 months development / Cost 10 BTC
Fork 3: Purge historic bloat by dumping transaction data and only keeping hash headers.
Additional Updates/Features that raizor has committed to:
a) IRC incorporation into CBX client
b) CBX Marketplace incorporated into CBX client
Elambert will be kick starting each stage with a 1 BTC investment into the development fund and has already made the donation for Stage 1 so we are already 10% to the goal. Please consider supporting this project by donating to BTC Address: 1D1oyugjRQFAyJ9sRYBvWS2aUbJ9KnUsVG
We are looking forward to moving forward with this project. Join us and lets take Crypto Bullion back to the top tier of crypto-currencies.

I sent a request for consideration to shapeshift.io and received the below response today. I encourage others from the community to do the same. Emily (ShapeShift) May 29, 17:05 Hi, Chris. Thanks for reaching out. I have added CBX to our discovery list and our development team will look into them when they begin to decide on the next coins to add. We receive several dozen requests a day for new coins to be added so can not assure you we will add your coin, but we will for sure look into it and see if it makes sense for us to add at this time. Any new coins we add will be announced on our social media channels as well as via our email list. Please feel free to connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shapeshiftexchangeTwitter: https://twitter.com/ShapeShift_ioGoogle +: google.com/+ShapeshiftIo Newsletter Sign-up: http://eepurl.com/bdbzO1I have also made note of your contact information so that the development team can reach out to you in the case they have questions. Thanks so much for your interest and request! Elambert2014 May 29, 12:32 Shape Shift, I am the founder of the crypto-currency/commodity known as Crypto Bullion (CBX) - "The Digital Precious Metal". Crypto Bullion was launched in June of 2013 so it is one of the oldest coins in existence. CBX is a PoW/PoS Hybrid that has completed its primary distribution and inflationary stage. With less than 1 million coins in circulation, CBX can only grow by a maximum of 2% per year between PoW mining (.5%) and PoS interest (1.5%). We have a solid and dedicated team and target a market niche - low mint, low inflation coin investors. Our team is constantly working on improving Crypto Bullion and have some game changing updates coming. This coin will be an excellent addition to your platform for clients trading and investment portfolios and has lots of room to grow. CBX hit an all-time high price point in December of 2013 at over $5 per coin but is currently trading at an enormous discount of 5 cents per coin - so there is a great opportunity to gain a potential 100x on investment. Our primary trading platform is Cryptsy (US based). We would love the additional exposure to your users. How can we team up and have Crypto Bullion listed on shapeshift.io? Here is our website for additional information: http://cryptobullion.io/Looking forward to hearing back from you... Chris 'elambert' |

Keep the ideas coming guys please! This is a perfect project for the community to collaborate on!
One thing I would like to add is with regard to using the word 'virtual'. I think we should refrain from using this term even though per some of its definitions 'carried out, accessed, or stored by means of a computer, especially over a network' it is accurate, however, others can be misleading. Some of the synonyms that can be misleading (and I worry how this term translates for these reasons) are 'simulated, artificial, make-believe'.

Also, request for the community...
For those looking how they can assist in a non-technical manner:
1) Research project for someone who has a little bit of time. Would like to identify the uniquenesses exhibited by CBX in relation to the slew of other coins in the market place. Ex: I know there were at a time a few different coins employing the Hybrid algorithm (PoW/PoS) but many move to solely PoS as that was the flavor of the month. Are PPC and CBX the only ones still standing?
2) CHINA. This was a major target for us back in the tail end of 2013 but we never quite made it. We want someone from the community to step up and band with us to organize translations and assist us in injecting CBX into the Chinese markets.
Lots of discussion points and opportunities here from raizor and my recent posts. Please chime in after you read through and lets get this train up to speed again. Starting it takes the most effort but once up to speed, a train is hard to slow down or stop.

Good news regarding Cryptsy...
Seems the wallet issue has been identified and resolved.
A few keys from frozen malicious accounts were causing the errors on their end so they have been removed.
Should be good going forward. Thank you all for your patience.

Awesome promo! Some of the leading altcoins are rising quickly. The conservative CBX may start to confirm a new uptrend to form Smiley
There are some tasty CBX snacks on Cryptsy... Indeed and seems the older alts are making up a large share of the uptick. CBX time coming! AMAZING! Seriously, the work that BTCat produces in the advertising arena with literally no budget purely defies all of the known laws of the Universe! I don't know how you do what you do, but we are extremely fortunate to have you on our side! Thank you again for your contributions to the community! |

Am doing fine! Loving Bullion so far, look's to be a safe bet and I would be interested in working with the team  We are always looking for community involvement! What is your skillset and how do you feel you could best contribute? For one, I am very active, I am usually online 8-12 hours a day. Secondly, I have experience in preventing DDoS attacks (could be useful for a website, pool, node, etc), basic HTML, and I plan on creating a 0% fee pool. Fantastic Kyle1836! Activity - on boards, chat rooms, development is all critical to a thriving community - please keep it coming! Let us know if we can assist in any way with the pool project and we promise to do our best to help promote and make it successful. |

How is everyone doing this week? I have been in touch with Cryptsy and no definitive timeline for their wallet maintenance. I have offered team assistance and will keep the community updated as I hear anything.
