We have to agree even though as a team it does hurt, we have already upgraded the wallet once and planned to do another one soon. The current state of this project however, after such a short time appears we need to completely rework our thoughts and direction. We do appreciate those that supported us through the first week though, and we have paid every bounty we promised, even to a fault it would seem. We are currently holding large bags but this is the nature of crypto, we need to go back to the drawing board. As one member of the team I must say i'm still shocked, low coin count, hard to mine...dual algo with anon I really thought we had a great coin for everyone. Our apologies to everyone, even if we cannot control this market. We will keep everyone updated after discussing internally how best to move forward.

-The Singularity

edit: I have heard the community on irc wishes to do a community takeover after merely a week? If that is true then it is your decision to make and we will take an advisory role. We will not fight with the community over who controls a decentralized currency. We can add out input and just try to help instead.

We just released a wallet upgrade less than 24 hours ago and launched Singularity less than 4 days ago. If people in crypto need more activity from the devs than this then expect to be let down many times in life. We are here, no we cannot control the market, maybe we gave too many bounties out?? All that can be done for at least a week lies on the community.

Please make sure you do not use 'incognito'/private mode and do not have any script blocking addons in your browser.
Download from Mega service includes extra encryption layer on the client side and performs the best in Google Chrome browser.

We have just squashed a bug causing high CPU usage by the wallet.
The code is now in GitHub - exchanges, pools, etc are advised to update.

Windows binary will follow shortly.

We attempted to put in a fix to close the wallet out completely stopping the Tor process in windows. In our tests it works. What version of windows was this on so we can look into it please.

If anyone has any questions feel free to post them here, yes this update was largely focused on miners and giving them greater incentive. Singularity will still be hard to mine and rare, there will just be a bit more to go around and every 2k blocks a bonus mega block.

Awesome, great work, this will be very easy with quality Pool OPS on board!!

OCminer thank you for updating at ludicrous speed!!

Hello everyone, it's hard to believe Singularity just launched a few days ago and already so much has been added and changed.
We are establishing an intelligent and active community with multiple media channels and ways to communicate.
I have already seen members of the community helping each other, and helping their own investment in Singularity by spreading
the word of our coin and all the advantages it has to offer.
We wanted everyone to have the advantages of anonymous so we went with the best (ToR anon). As well as dual algo's for both sides of the mining community.


This post is the official announcement of a major wallet upgrade, this is a HARD FORK, and we have set it up to easily be done over the course of a couple days.
This is a mandatory wallet upgrade and will be a huge improvement over our launch wallet in both bug fixes and features.
Please, please, please I cannot stress enough how important this is for pools, exchanges and everyone using the wallet to upgrade.
I will need our community's help spreading the wallet update on all media channels especially twitter to get the word out about this upgrade.
After block 1500 we will be officially on the new fork, then everything we have upgraded and implemented will begin to be in full effect.

We took everyone's input from miners, to investors, to our service providers. Now the part you all really care about, just what the heck did we change?

Here is our new mandatory wallet upgrade changelog:

Changelog:
- DigiShield implementation from block 1500 to better handle diff retarget (hard fork)
- Reduced block time from 3.5 min to 3 min for DigiShield (after block 1500)
- Fixed compilation problem under Linux
- Introduced 'Megablocks' occuring every 2000 blocks, each Megablock is worth 1000 SING
- New icons / logo


Code is in github now, Windows wallet is here: https://mega.co.nz/#!XEV3TAba!V7-429_PdL01SDfJH8xucw-s1CZr_ADIgRzWkp5nRZg

Please switch to the new wallet. The easiest way to make this transition smooth is by deleting everything in your singularity folder EXCEPT your Wallet.dat file do not delete this in fact make a copy or 2 just in case. Then install and run the new Singularity wallet and let it sync up and that is it. It is this simple, in the future there will be other upgrades these should not require a hardfork and wont technically be mandatory, most will want to upgrade though as it adds more features.

Thank you Yogg!

We have looked into several different sites for our community to use, Yogg's site has been around since 2013, this is a place you can actually trust to use. I hope everyone enjoys this new service for Singularity as it took quite a few hours to select one fitting for our coin. Just remember to have fun responsibly though 

We just wanted to make sure everyone knows CryptoStufz is going to be legitimately handling community management. We will still be posting daily but we are trying to focus on testing of the next 2 wallet upgrades right now. The first one is looking better by the hour, the second one is acting like a spoiled child, so it needs serious debugging. Thank you to everyone who is stepping up and taking control over their mining/investment and doing their own push for SING, we see your work on twitter, irc, and social media.

We just checked the thread after a long day of business, thank you everyone for all your kind words, together we will make Singularity the very best in both currency and great people surrounding and supporting it. Your words have made us very proud to see our community blossoming into a great place for outsiders to join. 

This is most likely because they both use the same tor protocols. We wanted the best, without anon none of these issues existed, but windows doesn't like closing out tor .

Love this site! Thank you for adding us, will add you to the OP soon

We are working on integrating an irc type chatting service for the wallet, and some quality of life improvements. The wallet hanging bug that plagues the anonymous tor based windows wallets is on our list of fixes as well. We also want to work in some visual improvements to the standard wallet QT. We have contacted more exchanges as well and so far we have some possibilities.

There is a few surprises coming but they will require a hardfork on the wallet, we promise to give everyone time to do the mandatory upgrade first though, including all pools and exchanges as well. I know miners need to recoup electrical costs but right now at 80k satoshi most of us are mining at a loss. Help us get the word out about Singularity and the benefits that it already has and we can easily get the price up to a level everyone is happy with. Advertise and bring more people in, this benefits everyone to build our community!

-The Singularity


One other thing, if anyone has any features they would like to see we will try anything as long as it doesn't break our current features. I personally want to tweak our difficulty adjustment rate as well so this could come in the next upgrade. Share your thoughts we have some very intelligent and creative people in this thread and in our irc.

We are still looking for a casino for Singularity, bounty is on the OP please post here what you can offer our community for review.

The premine is being used for development and bounties as per our op and as we have stated since launch in the thread. We have paid over 24 people and they will easily vouch for us. Thousands in bounties have been paid with more to come. Have no fear, the way it's looking right now each of our four man team will not be getting any hookers and blow any time soon without some serious mining


Great article Cynthia, top notch! Added to OP.

This is neat, we are looking for web site graphics, message Zackpac in IRC if you have any ideas.

We are still looking!
