Guys just checking in.

There will be a mobile (staking wallet) coming in the next couple of weeks alongside a new roadmap, after that I'll be handing over the main part of the project entirely to x11joe. i.e I will be stepping down as lead developer of this project and x11joe will take that role.

His vision for where xCash can go is greater than the one I started with and he want's to do something that is outside my realm of experience (making an entirely new codebase). Considering everything that I have done for this coin so far and because of the market conditions it does not feel correct to continue down the same path for little to no results.

The tech needed to make xCash into something special is more than I thought and it's also more than I can contribute at this time.

Therefore, it's probably best to allow somebody else to move forward in an entirely new direction so xCash does not get stuck in a rut to the point it simply dies.

I will still be on the team am making way for somebody else to take the coin in a new / fresh direction.

I hope everybody is ok with the decision to try something radical in an effort to breath some much needed life into xCash.

Made some fixes to xChange / xBot and the market listings are displaying as they should be.

The markets can be created in wallet via the xChange OTC tab and you can see them working by in #xcash

For commands simply type !xbot in the IRC.


I am currently working towards a mobile PoS wallet and will update again soon with a revised roadmap.

Is there any more info to show where people have been locked out of their accounts?

x11joe is busy making the market atm.

He checked in about 1 hour ago to say he's currently working right on "reading" from database and "identifying" transactions.

When he has reached a milestone he'll post the update here with a full explanation of what has been achieved as well as how much is left to do.

For now, instead of posting on the forum and getting sidetracked he has insisted he just wants to keep his head down programming.

I will ask for some more screen shots and dev vids when possible.

Try typing your password in notepad to see if you are not making any caps lock errors or adding spaces etc. Make sure the language settings on your pc haven't changed as they can alter your text outputs / keyboard layout sometimes minimally.

x11joe has provided myself and the rest of the dev team some technical diagrams along with his working schedule / timetable and assured us he's doing his best to meet those times.

He is currently working on the UI for xMarket and said that he'll post an update directly related to it as soon as he has something to show off.

Offer taken up and pm sent also.

The team is expanding.

The xCash community manager is JonesD

He's now in close communication with the development team and will help relay updates in a more frequent manner.

Any questions related to the coin can be directed to him.

Today I will appoint a community manager.

Just working out the details atm.

Hey Edraket31,

I've been busy working on a project for this coin and we also have a second dev that will introduce himself later today.

He would like to be more active with the community than I have been which as you say could only ameliorate the situation.

I will try to get on more and get some community engagement going as it does indeed seem to be a big factor in a coins success.

I'm working away as usual and will post when I have something to deliver.

A peek at the marketing material that is being prepared for xAffiliates

I can confirm that after some discussions with Dan Metcalf we are being added to The Blocknet.

For full info about Blocknet check the thread here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=829576.0

A collaboration with the participating coins could lead to some mutually exciting new developments not limited to xChange.

If you click enable your xHub should activate.

Here is the updated XCash windows wallet with the UI bugfixes, the clearing process working, counterparty messages etc.:

You need to delete the xchangeOtcDB and xhubDB folders in your XCash data directory, and rename and enable your xhubs.  Disabled xhubs won't show in the UI anymore.

I've also included a compiled linux daemon however you might need libs that match...its libdb5.1, boost 1.53 for reference.

Now I'm moving onto project 2.

As agreed I'll drop some info on the next two projects I'm working on whilst keeping something closely guarded for now.

The reason for not divulging everything at once (other than creating false hype and unnecessary pressure on myself) is that one of the projects is enormously complicated and to be honest I don't know how long it is going to take without diving in.

Anyway, the next two things I feel free to say as I'm pretty confident that both myself and second dev can pull them off in a reasonable time frame, they are as follows.

As soon as I've finished my bug fixing for xChange I'm switching onto project 2 which is to be called xAffiliates.

This week I'll layout plans for xAffilates so you can see in greater detail what it's all about but in short it's intended to be a system to rival some of the best affiliate management and tracking services on the market today.

Why put it in xCash?

Well...

I feel that there is a niche that has not been addressed yet in the cryptocurrency sector, one that Crypto it is perfectly adapted for and that is affiliate marketing!

What do affiliate marketers want?

No recharges - check
Low to no fees - check
Total freedom to sell whatever they like products - check

With xAffilates I want to provide them with a Clickbank alternative for selling internet based products and who knows perhaps the guys on Warrior Forum will take an interest in it, no need for 3rd party payment processors... sound interesting?

Then the second developer is taking on Project 3, it's designed to be built alongside Project 2 to make it more appealing to the guys that could be using it as well as for many other reasons to help progress accessibility of the coin. It's called xATM.

xATM is going to be a fully fledged ATM machine.  We're going to custom build the whole thing using android and QT for the interface, it will serve as a demonstration model and the software will be open source so that anybody can buy some parts and put together their own xCash xATM.

Right now we are still specifying the final features but I can confirm it'll take cash deposits.

To begin with whilst making this coin I really didn't want to release info before I'd finished building but... what the hell. Those are the next two projects that you can expect to see in xCash.
 

Announcement it is then.

I'll get it prepared.

Bug fixing xChange atm and introducing a new component.

Next week I may even let you guys know about the next major project.

I got 2 major developments in mind, but the preference is to build them first and release instead of pre-announcing.

However, I'm prepared to listen to everyone else's opinion so here are two options.

1: Announcement about the next project I'm working on before it actually comes.

2: Keep quiet until built and then release.

Let me know and I'll consider it.
