nice concept of the coin, will see how community can push the coin

Not sure I understand Ahmed, what did I accept? The DMD is a public source project, I welcome anyone to take it over, to enhance it, as long as the community agree on it.

I don't see where come up this takeover idea. I made the coin - the first pow/pos with random blocks, and I maintained it until it hits cryptsy, it's a great success.. I will continue maintain it if there are any issues - so far the only minor issue is the pos payout, which given small dmd payout, is a normal thing.

I did all the work without premine, and the results seem that people are just never satisfied. I am really a developer, not a promotor, so if you think the coin is not promo'd enough, please do it, it is a work of the community, not the developer.

Guys, this is a public source project, if you guys are not happy, make any changes yourself, as long as the community accept them. Don't do the stupid things like start another blockchain etc. Because if you know how to do it, then you better start another coin. And don't just talk, talk is too easy and cheap, only talking is not worth anything. Again the code is there, you are welcome to make any changes (and take over) there.

DMD doing great! Let the initial dump be done. DMD is way undervalue now. Remember no premine or instamine on this coin, and there are only 1500 coins generated per day. It will definitely value more than it is now!

wow it's wonderful that it is on cryptsy now.

DMD is going on great, the network hash rate has been relatively high, a lot of people are mining it. Please report any issues you see. We are working on an updated version.

BTW, I saw a small problem with the mining pool. The two pools report different network hash rate:

http://diamondcoin.miningpool.co/
reports Network Hashrate: 79.59 MH/s     Pool Hashrate: 49.44 MH/s     Pool Efficiency: 100.00%     Workers: 31  

http://str.minar.cc/
reports Network Hashrate: 30.327 MH/s    Pool Hashrate: 21.120 MH/s    Pool Sharerate: 4.86 Shares/s    Pool Workers: 24

my check from diamondd.exe shows the network hash around 80 Mh/s. Please check.

The dev team is fully committed to the success of this coin. We will soon release a new version adding more checkpoints and fix small issues. Stay tuned. If you observe any issues please report. So far we've been seeing this coin going great! It is the best coin combining all the best features of the alt coins. The mining is going on very smoothly.

Some people asked when it will be listed on cryptsy. The cryptsy said the DMD is on their list. We hope it will be there soon. Now let's accumulate our coins as much as possible. Remember, this is a coin with no premine and no instamine, it's a great coin and we are sure it will perform great in the exchange!

Also can someone make a blockchain explorer?

Nice... updated the OP.

Google drive allows you download individual files. For example, you can click on diamond-qt.exe, on the right most side, it will have an arrow, click on it, it gives you the "download" option for just the file you selected.

For connections, you may need to use addnode in the config file. Unfortunately I am currently at work, once I return home, I should be able to post my peer's addresses, and then you can use them for addnode in config file.

Thanks RobRoy, updated OP

I saw many are found:

That's great, thanks ethought!

I uploaded a minor update version of the window qt client and daemon, where the network hashrate is displayed correctly in daemon and current diff is displayed in the qt tool tip. This is of course not a mandatory update.

Download links and sources are updated.

Nice network hashrate:

$ ./diamondd.exe getmininginfo
{
    "blocks" : 1510,
    "currentblocksize" : 1000,
    "currentblocktx" : 0,
    "difficulty" : 1.27549630,
    "errors" : "",
    "generate" : false,
    "genproclimit" : -1,
    "hashespersec" : 0,
    "networkhashps" : 93738170,
    "pooledtx" : 0,
    "testnet" : false
}

sorry that was an omission, fixed it now.

Version 1.1 is released. This version added more checkpoints so making the coin more secure. Please upgrade although it is not a mandatory upgrade, you are highly encouraged to upgrade, to make this coin safer.

Both download links and source code in github are updated.
