No !

As for what's planned, wait and see. We have bitcoins, the premine, a big community, a few outside people we already hired for full time support on different social/media parts, lot's of contacts and lots of ressources .

We'll try to cover all the possible ways of marketing, and our devs -even if they are not very "social", that's why we hired people for twitter, facebook, reddit & co- are SEO experts so they know marketing and how to handle all the process, as long as we're able to invest and hire.

As for the camel, when you think about the silk road (the real one, not the shady onion site which by the way came after  ) don't you think about a camel  ? And isn't this camel beautiful hehe?

Ps : For those who only know the silkroad.onion here's the real silk road/route : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road  

Ps2 : And you would prefer it if we called it frogcoin hehe? We choose Silkcoin because it was a sharp and sexy unused coin name

If we keep up the good work and handle well marketing (starts tommorow, don't be surprised if there's been no one on social at the moment), the price will rise at the first POS phase, then as you say lower once the second POW starts (still be higher than the first) because of the dumps but yes this is a great opportunity for distribution.

Once the last POS phase kicks in you'll see the high , coins will be better distributed because of the 2 phases + 2 dumps phases  . My guess is 1st phase : lowest price, 2nd phase we get a big pump, 3rd phase the price goes back down a bit because of dumps from multipools and big miners- letting late comers come in silkcoin- and last phase, explosion  .

Yes this is still the windows compilation problem, we slept for a few hours now we're all back to work. Reinstalling the whole environment is a bit long, and reinstalling it a few times is even longer but don't worry we'll stay on it until it's fixed! At the moment just try avoiding typing 'help' or a non existant command in debug.

Another thing, are there some Mac users here who can confirm if this wallet is working or not?

Is it this you're seeking?
And coins should confirm 10 blocks later it was made at 1883 it's 1887 now

Block explorer is up and running :

http://explorer.silk-coin.com/

Fix is coming soon be patient please, in the meantime you don't even need to reboot now see OP :

All marketing, give away, twitter, facebook, reddit & co starts on monday, for now the team is focused on solving the few issues with the wallet.

And yes 5 message per hour + post every 360 sec makes it hard to answer fast. As for your question yes we'll ask coinmarketcap as soon as the block explorer goes live in a few hours.

PS : that's why I often edit mesages instead of posting new ones here

Great yes, thanks so much give me your SC address so we send you a bounty.
Windows compile fix is coming soon.

We're not from china (by the way we're seeking a chinese community manager, QQ and such). And if you were there at launch you would've seen the wallet at 2 blocks when openned because the pools kicked in after, NO ONE on the team has mined yet.

We are currently working on fixing the wallet errors and good news it should be fixed real fast .

By the way i love your message  such inspiration!

No wonder it's that high, lots of people rented big fat rigs and yes it's sure there's a few asic alrealdy on it.

And in a few days when the wallet will be perfect i don't think anyone will regret mining that coin .

By the way, we almost solved the rpc error which is a compilation problem, at the moment at least you don't have to reboot your computer anymore if you trigger it, just delete C:/ProgramData/boost_interprocess/XXXX and wallet will relaunch again .

And marketing begins on monday, until then twitter and such will be a bit quiet, we're already building a whole team.

Just to tell you all THANKS, we'll fix the bugs as soon as possible and the team will start to rise and get back in about 6 hours it was a very busy day and we still have a lot of work tomorrow good night to all.
We are all full time so expect full support every day.

THANKS TO ALL and have silky night!

The Silkcoin team.

If you have a runtime error :
We're working on it and 2 outside devs as well.

If everything goes well we'll get it fixed before tomorrow night, this only affects windows precompiled QT. Also, the whole team haven't slept for about 24 hours so expect a 6-8 hours pause in a few hours.

See the OP for the solution in the meantime and avoid using debug console, use daemon instead.

Yep even the premine isn't confirmed yet, no bounty has been sent etc..

We're really glad to already have 3 exchanges lots of people will soon be able to jump in by buying at low prices and easing the distribution.

A big thanks to all of you from the team, it's great to see a community build itself that fast.
Also for those who said we were premining the coin during the 20 min delay i hope you were happy to see 2 blocks when you openned the wallet since the team did not mine  .

We promise to do our best so this coin reaches highs never attained by any alts. We'll be on all sides with the premine, the BTC the whole team has put into this project (and yes there is quite a sum, we're already paying wages with it) and the great community we alrealdy have.

Also a little secret : the dev team has already started working on a sort of ecosystem for silkcoin mixing coins with social... We'll get some announcement in about 2 months, at the moment it's still in the early stages so little specifications comes out, full POS and Satoshi's blockchain opens doors to a whole new world of possibilities..

It was compiled on 64 bit windows. And the wallet crashing on first launch is not a big deal, what's a bit more annoying is when it crashes in the debug console and you have to restart... Our devs are also still looking at this and we have 2 outside devs on it.

Just a little update from the team :

Everything seems to go smoother now, and it's not the pool's fault if the confirm it is set to 350 (blackcoin as an example is 500) and block time is 1 min so it may appear slow if you're used to 10 sec block times & such.

Our devs are still working, as the community team is answering messages (the limit of 5 per hours makes the process a bit slow..) so if you still haven't got an answer from us don't worry it will be soon we answered to all the wallet error messages in priority.

Be ready to buy all the dumped coins on the exchange because low prices won't stay long   .

Your pool was added to wallet and OP a while ago.

Glad to see most people solved their wallet problems, if you still have a problem SEND A MESSAGE.

Most people are now running the wallet smoothly on all kind of windows machines please send us your debug.log file in private messages we'll continue to assist you.

Thanks for the comment below, its hard for us to see people that can't open wallet.. PLEASE send us private messages we'll get it working if it's still not working.

Please is ANYONE still having problems with the windows wallet and have read the OP ??

SEND A MESSAGE if it's the case we'll help you

Please tell us if anyone still got some problems we'll do our best to fix them.

As for the runtime error read OP it will be fixed before tomorrow.
