Thank you for those good news, we have some more!


We got a generation 2 wallet out for you guys, we've been working on more anon features but those take a more time, an infographic on those should be out soon as well.



PS: We've been getting a lot of messages asking us when will we be listed on an exchange. As this is a long term coin we won't rush that, we are getting more coins out by distributing the premine and the blocks seem to be getting out fine as well.

You can always tweet, email or even IRC the exchanges, community support is one of the main factors that can get a coin listed.

Tor was not compromised. there was a attack  on tor, but that was closed long before our release and only affected older code and certain relay types.

The attackers could not even see application level traffic!

Anyways, we are working on getting something out soon while we work on the bigger anonymity picture! A new batch of giveaway coins are being sent atm.

The twitter giveaway will pause since the dev team is going to sleep. We will keep distributing BT tomorrow!

Yup, this transfers are the give-aways.

You need to retweet, follow and post your address

We heard you guys and thought about this being a good solution for the premine problem. We want to distribute the coins and spark some interesse!

Ok guys, we heard you on this premine question and we are gonna give the community part of it, starting now. We are giving 2 coins for first 500 people that follow us on twitter, retweet this and send us their BT address via twitter !
We will check for cheating so please don't use two twitter accounts to participate.
We will start sending the coins in 2-4 hours.

PS: don't share your address here in bitcointalk since giveaways are not allowed

The premine % at this very moment is a consequence of how choose to make the coin distribution. Contrary to the latest 7/3 day pow/pos scams that have become the norm we decided to make a slow distrubution, like bitcoin and litecoin. The % of the premine in relation to the total number of coins is getting smaller everyday and we have already cut the initial premine from 0,5 to 0,3%, the focus right now should be innovation and not the premine discussion although I understand your concerns given the last coins that were launched.

ToR is already built-in in the wallet btw. I think we are gonna put some screens up in the OP since some people seem to think that's something we are working on



Let them FUD all they want, it's a free world and I wouldn't feel good censoring people.

The premine was reduced like you guys asked, we went from 0.5% to 0.3%. You have to understand that it is very hard to put together a project of this magnitude without any kind of funding whatsoever.

NOTE: being online only means I have my BTT tab open, calm down with the accusations. I was actually on my VM working on the coin.

Some pages ago exchanges was what some of you wanted. Now you're blaming us for listening to you guys?


 

As you may have noticed by now this will be a privacy/anonymity centered project. There are some more complementary anonymity features being cooked behind-the-scenes by the actual dev team, next we would like to use our coin to promote ToR related trades since they've been using bitcoin until now and need a coin that features privacy features, some part of the premine will be invested on this. We will also begin the hiring process of 3/4 more developers so we can have 6/7 active developers constantly working and delivering updates to the coin, we believe this is important because the altcoin industry is very, very competitive and to keep value going up you need constant updates.
Someone to work as a PR will also be hired with premine money. Bring new investors and update the community on what the team is working behind the scenes will be his job.

Right now we are working on delivering the first anonymous feature and also getting on the first exchange, expect news on this soon.

Bounty sent, we needed to test if the wallet worked properly.

Thank you very much 



0.3%

Thanks! The dev team is working hard to deliver some great stuff. We are working on two things now, reformulate the wallet look and add some more privacy on top on the tor protocol.

We are going to sleep though. Launches are stressful.

That's why the first 150 blocks had 1 reduced reward (1/10 of the normal blocks)


BTW. I don't know if you saw this ocminer.

"First 150 blocks with 0.1 block reward to avoid instamine" and prevent all those instamine accusations some people threw at us yesterday,

And we launch!

Relaunch will happen in 15 minutes!

Fourth time i'm writing it, seems like some people can't read. You can't touch genesis blocks coins. I'm guessing member ocminer is not well informed about it, don't take my word for it though:


Another source on this genesis subject: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Genesis_block

For the lazy: "The first 50BTC block reward went to address 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa, though this reward can't be spent due to a quirk in the way that the genesis block is expressed in the code (this may have been intentional)."

This works the same way with every altcoin that ever existed. Some people just keep FUD'ing posts without proof and don't even apologize afterwards.

Anyways tomorrow we will relaunch, we will reduce the premine and delete the "hidden premine" from the code.
