Sorry, but see PoS reward is 2% costant.. per year?
thank you

Hi guys,

Soon you will receive a development update.
Lots of stuff going on and we are getting some good results in development at the moment.
We are looking forward to give the update.

Stay tuned!

Richard

Hi Guys,

Seen the request for more info about all the talks we have. Well, we can't. Also seen DM's from people asking about my tweets.
i'm not responding to DM's about these matters. Sometimes i gives some hints in my Tweets, so read them carefully.

The reason that we are not disclosing any more info is because these businesses are either listed on a stock market or are that large, that they don't want us to link I/O Digital to their name (yet). If we do, then we have the risk of blowing a magnificent deal. All bad for I/O Digital and that company then. On the other hand we sign NDA (Non Disclosure Agreements) sometimes to guard everybody's interest.

What can I say: we are talking with a company that is one of the largest consultancy / accountancy and (newly in blockchain) technical companies out there. They are investigating blockchain technology to add to their business service. Either adopt, invest or give us the necessary resources to get to the next level. They have around 100.000+ employees around the world. We have open talks about everything we do. Been there three times at sr. executive levels the last 8 weeks.    

This company actually said -I quote- "what would you do with EUR 500k if we 'gave' that to you"... so yes, they are interested.
We do not sell our souls and will keep close to I/O Digital ethics and open source goals. Its not only about paying for developers or marketing, but we also will take care of the current (and future) IOC holders in every deal we are trying to make. Think of a 'buy in' program for large investors to support upward price movement when we get a financial injection for example. We will always try to make that part of a deal.

It is not said that this company will invest or give us this funding. NOTHING IS SURE. So do not see this as a buy signal, but as a signal that we have very good meetings and genuine interest. These things take time. Especially for those companies that can invest millions if they want. Again, this is extremely difficult to achieve. But i am sure that if this company decides not to cooperate with or invest in us, another one will come along.

I/O Digital is here to stay. With or without any multi $ funding.
Our main goal: Creating blockchain technology that is not only available for large financial institutions, but is easy to adopt, easy to use and available for everybody that wants to use blockchain technology for their service. Open source! as long as they pay the needed IOC for the stored KB in the blockchain. That payed fees are redistributed to the stakers on top of the normal 2% stake.

I hope to have clarified what we are up to. Thanks all for your never ending support.
And thanks for understanding that we can't tell everything.

Hello Folks we got a little notice from Bittrex this morning that if trade volume doesn't pick up the coin will be de-listed on Dec 4th. I think we just love our coins to much and don't want to trade them, but in all reality we should get some type of exchange going on to keep trex happy and the coin listed. Let's get creative here and see how we can get our volume up on the exchanges. As ive said before we don't get involved in this type of exchange talks but it is our duty to inform.

This market is in danger of delisting due to low trade volume and lack of user interest. It may be removed on December 4th unless the average daily trade volume for the last 7 days exceeds 0.2 BTC.





Regardless of what happens we are still working on DIONS and as I've said many times here it has taken us longer than I originally anticipated. Even at that our community has to grow and we need to make grounds in showing people the speed of transfers and benefits of our blockchain. Again this must be done by the community. We are doing our best to stay on top of our coding.

Let's get some ideas flowing and try to keep our coin listed with bittrex, polo, bluetrade, shapeshift, cryptsy and the rest of the exchanges.  It would be a travesty to see our coin de-listed when we are in the middle of so much coding and preparation for DIONS.

Let's show some support for the project, the dev team is here and we are working hard..

Thanks

Joel

hey guys,

This "exchange" is opening soon so you can buy a coin with a creditcard in the UK.
https://coinerz.com/

We applied for addition , but maybe its a good idea if you guys can send them a mail as well explaining how great we are and that they are missing out if they don't add us.

It is great that these kind of services are around helping to get crypto easier to the general public.

Thanks
Richard

On it Thanks London, Team is working today. I Was telling sam today in our team call that if what we are doing is easy every coin would of had DIONS. Not easy to break ground with what we are doing in a unique and from scratch wallet. We are at it my people, we would of had DIONS out if it wasn't for us trying to make things more user friendly for everyone, so we are committed to doing just that. You can reach on slack if you need me. Thanks To richard for the hard hard work as always..

Best of luck Richard do you know when will they release the shortlisted projects? IOcoin's hard work for the last year and a half deserves nothing but top spot hopefully. I will be patiently looking forward to the announcement. Well done guys

Hey Guys,

The website of www.fintech.nl has been updated. We are now officially nominated.
See nominee list on homepage.

Cheers

Not sure what you mean.

Great News! lets keep it going

We have now hired a new dev to work on the api. He starts on Monday and we have a 2 week time period for completion of this api, if successful it will go to Pat for final integration of DIONs code into the wallet and then we go on Final testnet of DIONS. Let's all stay positive and I will be following up with the community by next friday. Thanks everyone.

Hello Everyone hope you're all well. Just wanted to give you all an update for this week. Our wallet team is now eagerly awaiting changes to the main DIONS api doc and code for integration to our wallet. Unfortunately it has taken longer than originally estimated. For that reason we had to bring in a developer to help the wallet core team accomplish these changes. Here is a more detailed explanation.

Derek our lead dev had finished the DIONS code back in july and had completed a full testnet of the code to his satisfaction. During that period the wallet team was working on the basic transition from our old HTML5 wallet to the New HTML5 wallet. Designs and implementation started to take shape. Derek then started to work on an api documentation for the wallet team to implement DIONS into the wallet. At that point the team looked it over and made a calculation that it was pretty straight forward and they would not have major issues during implementation. Once Derek finished the api doc, The wallet team was a bit behind with basic coding and it took them around 1 week or 2 to finally assess the final api doc for implementation. During review of the last api doc, our team had discussions with Derek on changes they thought would help them implement the code in a much more fluent way, there were also recommendations for a few small changes to the code for a more user friendly messaging system. For example, how the wallet would handle friend requests. At this point there was a difference in opinion on how this implementation would be done without having to make major changes to the original code. After a dev team meeting, we decided to bring in an additional C++ dev to speed up and aid us with the tasks of implementation of these changes, while not taking Derek away from his current daily tasks. Our Api dev came in last week, studied the code and is now working on implementation of the proposed changes. As a precaution on my part, I also personally interviewed an additional C++ & Java dev and he is currently looking over our entire project and awaiting in the wings to come in and review our final code. New devs coming in are signing NDA's to maintain our code information secure. We also have our code in a non public accounts until we are set to release to keep anyone from copying our code before release.

On regards to videos or images, we have released images of the wallet and will not be making any videos until DIONS is fully functional in the wallet and ready to release.

Although it has been disappointing to me that we are behind our DIONS scheduled release date, Im overall pleased with the fact that the entire team is looking to perfect our overall code and wallet performance. The journey so far has been full of ups and downs, but as Ive said before, i'm fully committed to the project. From day one I've self funded the project along with other team members and community who have chipped in and this was done to ensure that nobody would tarnish the Fair Launch of the project. People had to mine the coins and or buy them off miners just like I had to do. So in the end, we are all equal as holders. Furthermore I've bought coins when I could and I've been staking my personal coins since day 1. We haven't had the benefits of 18M dollars as Ethereum had and or a premine or ICO funding. Even though ethereum has been the one to grab all the air, and startup funding, they are having setbacks and challenges in coding as everyone else.  Their code is far very far from getting to where it needs to get and it may never get there, if funding is not secure from what Vitalik has said. With this said, we are not Ethereum and we never got Millions in funding. I've had to manage our entire project with much less and even though it has cost me, I consider us to be well managed and on budget for our project.

You need more than just coding brains or great tech to make a run for this. You also need management skills in order to steer devs, keep them motivated and in budget to get us to having a successful project. Since many are looking to make a quick bitcoin profit from trading, desperations starts to set in. Price fluctuation is inevitable from speculators and market manipulators, but overall IOC works, it can be traded for not only bitcoin, but also for services or products. Our I/O Digital blockchain is fully functional, fast and secure and is currently being upgraded. Current staking is at around 50% today which is very impressive. Looking at the value of IOC paired to bitcoin is understandable that we have lost ground in market cap. That also has to do with the selling pressure being put by a few holders, but as a community, we should focus on making IOC more accessible to people and companies in the near future.  DIONS will be extremely useful to facilitate transfers via user's aliases, identity and or document storing and private messaging. So once we release DIONS, it will be our focus to educate the masses on our blockchain, via marketing campaign and continue the further development of our  Chameleon Project. I hope that I can count on  the support of our holders, to at least be understanding of some of the challenges to coding, and to let us focus more on our hard work and dedication to make our new projects a reality.

Once the api implementation has been completed, which is not much, it will go to our wallet dev team for the final stage of the DIONS wallet integration, test and release.

As always i'm available through slack.

If you read this update please leave some feedback, or support words to our dev team, will be appreciated.

Thanks

Joel

thanks. added it.
