It would be ideal if Augur REP TOKEN would be tradable before the bitcoin halving, would love to sell the bitcoin from REP when BTC gets pumped in June, should see $600-$800 time to cash out for sure.
Also, anyone notice the price REP tokens got bought up to today on Gatecoin, only 0.13 satoshi! $50+ per REP token, if it is that price on launch,there will be a lot of happy people, no doubt most of these people are already knee deep in eth and already multi millionaires. Can see Eth going to 0.25 in next 2 weeks.

PS: Roadmap needs updated.Has been nearly 2 months now. (20th December) This is how things looked, nearly 2 months ago. Dions at 94% API for dions 94% New HTML wallet 96% Chameloen 80% Looking forward to seeing the percentage creep up . PS: just checked progress status and 404 error :)so looks like the page is being updated? Or is it down? Still get 404 error? Anyone? OKI was using a bookmark to get to the roadmap page, when i went direct to the site and clicked on the "roadmap" link. You guys have changed it to the "Infographic" so you have scrapped the Roadmap with the % status (not a good sign) and now just have the Roadmap Infographic. So with this in mind, change the text on the drop down menu to "Roadmap Infographic". On a Positive note  The wallet totals on Bittrex have been chopped in half, top wallet just over 200k coins now and most are under 50k, really great to see. And staking back in the 50% range, so all looking good on that side of things. Just need some luck with the ongoing developments that are running late.

Hello Community......
We started to work on the implementation of the api codes into the wallet and build of the environment. We ran into some build errors with
regards to the Dions wallet prototype on OSX. After some debugging we decided to build a server to set up gitlab & gitian, as we are sure it was a compiler problem but with gitlab & gitian it will add continuous integration and help us make our builds automatically from now on. In the meantime we switched to linux as my main dev platform just until the prototype progresses reasonably. After that will take care of windows and OSX testing of the Dions V.1 wallet prototype, with the integrated api calls. Once we get the first few calls in the wallet, then things should progress faster.
I/O Digital Dev Team
Hey Folks, hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to share with you guys something that happened to me with my Galaxy S6 phone. So long story short my phone would not recognize my fingerprint, the backup password failed to be recognized and even the google password was not working. The phone was inaccessible, So I tried locking the phone to then unlock it remotely and that also failed. With no more options available I was forced to do a factory reset but before I did that I tried changing my google password. After changing my google password the phone was still locked out as it also failed to recognize the new password. I had no choice and proceeded to reset my phone. Once the phone was reset, I was surprised to find that Google and Samsung have a feature called FRP which would leave me phone less for 72hrs. At this point I was so appalled by the entire thing that I sprung into a full on research. I found so many people facing the same issue, but the sad part was a few people were offering boot loader to remove the FRP. I looked into one of these loaders and as I had suspected they were infected with malicious code. So here are Samsung and Google trying to protect customers, but Hackers found an opening with desperate users and pushed them these bootloaders. The users in some forums were ecstatic, but they had no clue that they were also injecting malicious code into their phones. I proceeded to do what I do best and I was back in my phone by the morning so no issues with me. I bring this up because this is a perfect scenario as to why BlockChain technology is so important in our lives. In the near future, it would be a possibility that the imei of a user's phone, identity and or fingerprint will be registered against your private key [in our case your Aliases] for purposes of securing your gadgets. The phone or gadget would ask for a passphrase, do a query to the I/O Blockchain and unlock that said phone, gadget, home, car etc upon confirmation. This scenario is one of many of the things that will be possible, if implemented, by a company using our blockchain as part of the internet of things. As we proceed to complete these api calls to the wallet, It is also imperative that our Blockchain It's also capable and at the ready to handle millions of transactions for the near future. Once Dions is out, Im sure private and public entities will come in and do aggressive stress testing to ensure that we meet the requirements for them to adopt our Blockchain. With this in mind, I don't want people to think that DIONS is a walk in the park, it has been challenging and aside from the core capabilities we are also looking ahead and discussing these scaling scenarios. Everyday you hear folks coming up with all sorts of new ideas of what the blockchain can do and the requirements that will be needed for the long term success of them. I'm excited for the times ahead, but at the same time I'm cautiously optimistic, and want to be very clear with the community once again. We are not here to make features just to have the price pump. Our dev team is a very serious team and we are committing ourselves to do the best work that we could possibly do. Now is the time to make these changes before we grow to big, in the future, forking would be almost impossible if we were to scale to fast. Therefor we are not in any kind of hurry to release crap code just to satisfy short term holders. To the team and I, security is always at the forefront. When we release DIONS we will have an open source chain, but some features will have to be protected for a period of time to ensure we are not copied on release. We have plans to further our development as explained in our roadmap to chameleon and we hope for continued support from the community and blockchain enthusiast. As the project manager I've given 200% to our project and I personally continue to invest heavily in our project because as I've said before, I believe that in time we will have our spot in this space, but this will only come with a long term commitment, hard work and dedication. Rest assure that I always have everyone's best interest in mind and will continue to do so as we move along. I want to take the time to thank the entire team for their continued hard work and dedication. To the community thanks for the support, continue to stake and keep on rocking. Big Hug to Everyone Joel Really enjoyable read, happy to hear you were able to get back into your mobile Joel. Would love to see some big mobile phone company take a look at the IOC blockchain and implement a blockchain for the purposes you outlined. You need a meetin with Carlos slim, he own a huge mobile phone company that would be ideal. |

great buying price under 2 cents a coin. Looks like a large holder unloaded cheap. very nice
Just checked Bittrex and i can see the top waller #0 has dropped around 20k coins, this is really great, combine this with now only 662k IOC for sale, from a previous 1million, really great to see coins are going to long term holders. |

Good volume today  How is the contact with the VC firms going team? Can you give an update ? Cheers Hi, yes good volume. I catched 50k yesterday so thats off the market ;-) About VC: when things come to that we have to be very careful what to say. Every letter we type can be seen as a "yes there is a VC" or "no VC ever". I can say that we are in contact with a few VC's and one actually received our investment proposal. They are screening it as we speak and watching us closely. A director of KPMG is helping us to create the best document there is. The chances are small that we get the investment short term though. This is mainly because the VC's want to have a working prototype to show for. Thats why we are pushing for the delivery on DIONS. When we deliver DIONS (yes we will), then we have a few services / companies waiting to jump in on connecting. One of them is www.spinnit.nl (not yet a fully working website - and in Dutch) They will launch an app soon where people can sell and buy stuff in their social network. It can also be integrated into webshops (thats the easy explanation). They want to have their own Digital Currency and want to use our chain for that. Also possibly store extra data in it. So, after we connect the first service, then its an easy sell for us as you can imagine. The talks will continue and we are very sure they will jump in when they see the time is right. We are also looking to registering I/O Digital as a company soon. Next to this we are having a lot of attention in the FinTech media. Like the European Fintech awards and the Benzinga Fintech awards. Also getting interviews for magazines these days. So a lot going on behind the scenes! I am very proud on what we have achieved so far and are confident I/O Digital will get the investment needed and the place in the top 5 Blockchain companies in the world. This is what we aim for! Joel will update you on the development soon. Cheers Richard Thanks a lot for the update! Sounds very good, exciting times ahead. You guys are doing an awesome job, holding strong! Fantastic update, thank you. DIONS is a big developments and important step along the I/OCoin digital road, as you say, once DIONS is realised, people can see and use the product, then this will lead to a influx of investment from VC's, it is going to be a smart and profitable choice for the VC that takes on IOC first. I really lie the idea of the app also, sounds great, i can see this being a big plus point in the future for companies accepting payments. If i could buy items 10% cheaper and all i had to do (this is how i imagine it will work) was buy £xxx of their own digital currencyto use on the website, deal done! And as stated once one company joins many will follow. I hope we can see DIONS in the next few months, but understand these important developments take a lot of time to finish. Keep up the great work IOC Team! |

Simon,
A PI always tries to login with the default login pi/raspberry. Thats why it immediately logs you in.
You can change the credentials in the configuration (click the 'start' menu) and then look for pi configuration. If you have done that it will prompt you a password when you startup the next time.
Don't do that immediately, but first install the wallet / config (its just a matter of opening the command prompt on the pi and execute the installer url that has been provided).
a PI with a wallet is nice, but it is not best suitable for PI newbies. You have to know a bit PI and Linux maybe to config it.
It is a whole new world. I have it up and running. The basics i did myself but the iptables (firewall) and remote desktop i had help from a sysadmin.
Good luck
Richard
Ho Richard, ah ha! Your explanation is much easier to understand, thank you. But what is the exact "code" please "execute the installer url that has been provided"  i cant see anything here. Also, i need the pi online first, quite a task when i am trying to do it with the wifi dongle. Been at it all day since the morning... and i am cursed by the fact i wont stop until it works.... going to be no sleep for me. So for now. What is the command "text" i need to write to instal the QT wallet please, thank you. |

Let me clarify a few things around your post:
There are a few ways to install and use the wallets:
1. Prepare an 8GB+ Raspbian Jessie card in your Pi2 and execute the installation script in my post. This will install the dependencies and install a dynamically linked Qt and headless wallet on your Pi automatically. The Qt wallet is installed in ~/opt and there is an icon on the desktop that you can execute. Remember that to get to the desktop you have to execute startx at the command prompt. You will need to download and install the blockchain separately. This is the option that I described in my instructions.
2. Get a blank 8GB card with nothing on it. Download the 8GB IOC prepared .img file to your PC and burn the image to your card with a tool like Apple Pi Baker or Win32Diskimager. You can then insert the card into your Pi, boot, change any potential settings with raspi-config and run the wallet. This option will have the Qt and headless wallets, the dependencies and blockchain already installed and loaded on the card. This option does not exist yet but is what you have requested me to do - to create the .img file.
3. Prepare a card like in option 1, but instead of executing the script download a statically linked wallet and run that. You then still need to download the blockchain manually and install. I dont like static wallets in Linux and therefore I wont choose this option. Sorry i should of mentioned the following. I am using a Raspberry pi2 with the latest Jessie OS update. Notes: The new OS does not use a command prompt to get to the desktop, it does this automatically. The new OS does not ask for a password or username. Please write in non coder speak, its hard to understand for a newbie like me
"execute the installation script in my post"
Problems. I am not connected to the internet. Do i have to be connected to the internet? What Script? What do you mean by execute? How can the QT be installed automatically if i am not online? "The Qt wallet is installed in ~/opt "Where do i find ~/opt ? Where do i find the bootstrap file? 2 and 3. i will go with option 1, it seems the best. There are steps here, that presume other things are set up on the Pi. i have a new pi. not set up for internet or nothing. Hope that makes sense. many thanks Simon. Note for other people. You really need a big screen, if you do not have a monitor, buy one, it will save a ton of hassle. I am trying to figure out how to connect my pi to my laptop screen, thats a day or two job on its own, easy to find ip addreesses and such, but then you have to figure out how to connect the pi, even with putty installed and such it will not work. |

Is it possinle Richard that you can copy your files from the memory card, upload them somewhere to share them and other people cna easy copy them to a new card.
this would makes things really east and i think its a great idea.
I dont think that is possible. then you will have my IOC address (wallet.dat) on the PI. Maybe if I delete wallet.dat and the first time you fire up the wallet, then it (probably) will create a new wallet.dat I dont know for sure.. It is possible to do this. One can make a generically prepared card with everything installed except the wallet.dat. An image is then made of the card which is uploaded or shared via bittorrent. The file will be 8GB though as its only drawback. 8gb is fine, i can download that in about 2hrs here. JC would it be something you would consider doing? As you seem the most technical for the job i am sure we could get a few extra tips for you. Thank you Also, it can inslucde a new wallet.dat file, the new user can then simply paste in their wallet.dat Sure. Ill make the image. Thank you that will be great, just trying to install it this way first. QUESTION: Do i just downloaded the QT installation then copy it to the memory card, just copy and paste it there? In your instructions, there is no instructions mentioning the QT file. Can someone here post normal instructions please. So far. 1- Download the latest version of raspbian with Jessie (easy) 2 - download Win32diskimager (easy) 3- open disk imager then find the raspbian file you just downloaded and select the file to write to memory card (no problems there) 4 - remove memory card and put it into the raspberry pi. 5 - start the pi. NOTE: on my pi after booting it went straight to the "home screen". Where all i had was a image of the waste basket. also the date and time was wrong, maybe i have to connect to the internet first and not think it will automatically detect network? (using wifi dongle) ok, so i thought it was very strange this "new" pi did not even go to a log in "screen" nothing, just straight to desktop. So downloading SD Formatter to clean this 8gb memory card, then i will install raspbian What i do not understand, is how i get the iocoin qt on the pi? But before this i also have to configure the edit dongle, which is half a day job it seems. i can only connect the pi to the TV as i do not have a monitor |

Raspberry Pi Stakers !
Cna you please post pictures on Facebook and Twitter to help bring more attention to I/OCOin (thats what i will be doing).
Also, maybe you know someone who does 3D printing?
How awesome would it look to have a Pi2 case in IOC's colours with a IOC logo on the front! (very awesome!)
Thank you.

You have the memory card, remove your wallet.dat so it creates a new one when a user starts it up for the first time or even better, do tis before you move "your" wallet.dat into the new file. Then all should be good. JC what are your thoughts on this? |

Great to hear the Pi's are working. But i think for other people, non too techy, surely once you have all the info on the memory card, you can simply make a copy of it onto other card, so people just need to insert the card and they will be ready to go. This would mean they would only need to load the blockchain from the date the card was made, then simply cut and paste in their wallet file, so veyr easy to do. Is it possinle Richard that you can copy your files from the memory card, upload them somewhere to share them and other people cna easy copy them to a new card. this would makes things really east and i think its a great idea. Many thanks Simon. PS: @mrwhitebites: The logo Butterfly thingy it is not a clue or anything. I'm just producing a lot of stuff to support the brand long term. More to come.This make me sad, i thought you guys had joined up with this Venture Capital company  |

Beautiful Short Video. I do presume that this is an obvious hint to announce I/O Digital has secured Seeding from Butterfly Ventures? If so a BIG congratulations in is order, i'm sure you will make a great partnership and one Butterfly Ventres can boast about. Read more about Butterfly Ventures here > http://butterfly.vc/I hope i'm right, I/OCoin has finally evolved from the Caterpillar and IOC can continue to grow and become world famous thanks to the help of Butterfly Ventures. PS: Love the other video also, i am going to get many people like and share it! I hope other community members here can subscribe to the I/OCoin You Tube Channel and like and share the vidoes, thank you. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKPPtpIi8B2EpNY00Tu-HFQPPS: I/O Digital Team, edit your channel so you have a Channel Name EG: https: //www. youtube.com/channel/IODigital |

is there any way to have the HTML5 wallet running on PI?
Should be possible right?
Hi Richard, Will the new wallet run with the same "foundation code" as the previous HTML? Or will it use different code, just wondering if JC looked at the other wallet, if he would not have to change things when the new one it out. |

HI JC,
If possible maybe make another post, with more clear steps for us Pi noobies please, running the jessie OS.
That would be great, thank you.

Hi,
Installing my PI today. What i have seen is that if you download and install the Jessie image from the raspberry website, it works like a charm. Boots instantly when i added the boot to the memory card using ApplePi-Baker. BUT!
The image that you restore sets a very small storage availability. In my case i have a 16 GB SD card, but after loading the image to the SD card, it said to have 150MB storage. The installer failed a few times saying there was not enough storage so i started debugging. This is the result.
So before you start the installer script on the raspberry, be sure to expand your storage to the max on the raspberry. I used raspi-config in de command window to expand the storage. After using that commando i have 16GB available again.
Now installing....
Cheers
Richard
Thank you for the advice Richard, great to see a good explanation, the more the better as i will need as much useful info as i can get / read when i write the guide. All the best. |

finally after fixing configuration on size of sd card everything seems perfect.
wow awesome. thank you jc
only problem Im having now is downloading bootstrap file....so im just letting it sync for now.
Great. What problem do you have with downloading the bootstrap file? I was not sure how to download in Linux...so I downloaded on windows machine and copied it to usb and transferred to pi. I put the file, bootstrap.dat in the iocoin folder.... /home/pi/opt/iocoin... but when I open the wallet it starts downloading blockchain from the beginning. did I put in wrong place Yes. You must put the bootstrap.dat file in the ~/.iocoin folder (/home/pi/.iocoin), there where your iocoin.conf and wallet.dat files are. PS: Also remember to enable your firewall (sudo ufw enable) How do you enable firewall with Jessie OS please? Also what Pi Screens would you recommend? There are many to chosoe from, do they all need PSU? Or some just run of the usb? Thank you. |

can I ask what size sd card you are using. I just ran the script for Jessie on an 8gb card, and at end ..error message came up that there was not enough space to make directories ....hmmm. am now trying with 16gb
also the model pi I am using has 512 ram....will that be an issue?
I have tested the script on an 8GB card and it works perfectly. The installation takes about 500MB of space excluding the blockchain. You might have made a mistake with preparation of the SD card. You have to do the following things: 1. Download the Raspbian Jessie image https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_latest2. Unzip and burn the image to your card, 8GB or higher. You get different tools for this and if you use a Mac you can use Apple Pi Baker v1.81 3. Boot up from the card and do the setup. 4. At the command prompt run sudo raspi-config 5. In raspi-config click on expand file system so that your whole card becomes one big partition. This will leave about 3.5GB free of the 8GB card and you will have ample space for the script. 6. You can also setup other things in raspi-config like your localized settings, hostname, password etc. 7. This is most probably a superfluous comment, but at the command prompt type startx to bring up the graphical interface where you can then launch the Qt wallet. Regarding your question on the 512MB memory - I do not have an older ARM6 processor Pi with 512MB memory so I cannot tell you if it will work. Chances are good though that it will work on your version. 2- Read here > https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/ on how to write a image to a memory card (all good fun to learn) for windows, mac and linux. It is quite technical, but i hope to be able to write a full step by step guide by this time next week, along with a you tube vio and screen shots step by step JC #6 you can password protect the Pi i presume, so you dont need anti-virus on it? #7 "at the command prompt" do you first have to open the command prompt? Also IOC Pi Stakers, make sure to bookmark this page > http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/15-useful-commands-every-raspberry-pi-user-should-know/Also join groups for Pi's and on Facebook there are several. (in many languages) It is like anything, tricky at first, but soon will become second nature. Also JC, is it possible to have everything on a memory card for a user to simply put the card inside the Pi "boot" it and the wallet will be there like desktop to click and run? I am thinking if it is too difficult for people, i, or yourself could install everything on one card to sell (at more or less cost) to people here, to make it as easy as possible for them to use the QT wallet (hopefully in future, the HTML wallet also)on the Pi . |

Thanks for the incentives! I spent some more time and looked into the Qt5 issue. I managed to solve it so that Qt5 wallets can be widely distributed but only when using Raspbian Jessie. I have updated the Pi instructions post to have 2 installation scripts, one for Wheezy (only headless wallet) and one for Jessie (headless and Qt5 wallets)    JC this is GREAT! this is exactly what i had in mind when running the wallet for the Pi. It is much nicer and gives people more confidence when they can see te "usual" look and layout of the wallet, this is an important addition. Really pleased you were able to do this, thank you. For more info on Raspbian Jessie please see/read > https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspbian-jessie-is-here/ |
