addnodes anyone?

I have 2 connections and I'm barely picking up blocks.

seems it was worth the wait.
welcome back Arg

1) There is and always was a team.

2) There's no specific role for any coin for Blocknet. The initial idea and setup 3 years ago was quite different, lot of things have changed.
Every coin is treated equally, it's simply a trading pair on the upcoming DX (which is already working).
In case you refer to the website blocknet.co, it needs an overhaul and update which is being worked on.

the bootstrap takes hours to validate the chain/blocks, even if it looks freezed, it isn't. Please, just be patient and let it run.
No wallet syncs instantly. This is a typical process. And still a 3.5 y/o chain so quite some blocks.

There are no problems. Just be patient.
or use this guide to sync even faster

Stay tuned!

XST / Stealthcoin is PoS since 2014.

Cryptopia has opened the Stealthcoin markets. Happy trading everyone.

Your coins will mature anyway, wallet open or closed, so you'll stake.
You'll just get less stakes if you don't run it 24/7.

•   Coin (input) is eligible to stake 3 days after the transaction that put it in your wallet.
•   Every second it gets a better and better chance to mint as it gets older.
•   But at 9 days after sitting in your wallet, the chances get no better.
•   Every second your coin will earn more and more interest once it mints.
•   But at 15 days, the potential earnings are capped. That means you can't open your wallet after 365 days and earn 20% interest. The most interest you will earn on an input is 0.822% (20% * 15 / 365).

•   So if you open your wallet every six months to stake, you'll earn just over 1.65% interest (1.00822 * 1.00822).
•   If you open it every 3 months you'll earn about 3.3% interest.
•   If you open it every 45 days, you'll earn about 6.7% interest.
•   If you open it every 22.5 days, you'll earn about 14% interest.
•   More frequently than that, you'll approach compounding to nearly 22% (based on a nominal APR of 20%).

The last calculation goes like this:
(1 + (0.20 * 3 / 365.0))**(365.0/3) - 1

I'm a team member, since July 2014.
There was a massive update not long ago: https://github.com/StealthSend/Stealth/commits/dev-fork005
The release will follow during the next weeks, XST is ready for the upcoming Blocknet Decentralized Exchange.
Other than that: stay tuned!

Don't worry.
There'll be no reason for another notice.

Hey all,

quick update for everyone not on Slack.

Here is an overhaul of XST: https://github.com/StealthSend/Stealth/commits/dev-fork005

Hondo did the following:
1. CLTV for blocknet (hard fork)
2. Stricter time-stamp constraints for transactions and blocks, this means that people who don't automatically update their clocks on daylight savings time won't issue a block with a timestamp that half the nodes accept and half reject (hard fork)
3. Plugging some time-stamp attack vectors like the flying delorean attack, which exploits clock drift issue that manifests in 1 (hard fork)
4. Complete overhaul of tor, and update to the latest release, which I think will help with fairglu's problem. I have reproduced his problem and preliminary testing sows massive improvements to stability.
5. Incorporate Crypto++ into sources for fewer cross-platform dependency issues.
6. Redundant block explorer based on insight (http://chain.stealthcoin.com/), which is currently filling the explorer database tables, although it is functional as a "crawler".
7. Tor-clearnet bridge.
8. Hard coded clearnet seed node(s). The code for hardcoded nodes is added, but the actually seednode addresses won't be added until the deployment of the release.
9. Upgraded to the latest leveldb.

New explorer is at http://chain.stealthcoin.com:3001/

Thanx to 86b!

We're all waiting for a statement, it's still pending.
XST will be listed on Cryptopia soon, independent of what's goin to happen on Bittrex. Something like mid/end next week.
The Blocknet DX is not far out of reach as well.

Thank you, awesome!

I like your positive attitude.
Hope you're right and we stay.

You don't have to hope for Blocknets DX, it's confirmed.
Stealthcoin will be one of the first coins to be traded on the upcoming
DX.
