Still no exchanges - hopefully that changes soon.

So couple things from the Discord - there's a fork coming up

also there's a Mac release now sorta? - https://github.com/xmranon/Nerva/releases/tag/0.2

http://nerva.exchange/ is live now (though it is in Beta and limited to $12.50 purchases until it is out of Beta)

works kinda like Evercoin or Shapeshift where it takes in BTC and send XNV without having to deal with any formal exchange.

(site was was created by community member: Nithronium)

Something the Dev posted to the Discord

"@everyone. Just as a matter of transparency, the 32k xnv in the exchange listing fund has been liquidated via an OTC trade for 1.1k sats each, for a total of 0.35 BTC. The BTC address holding these funds can be viewed here

This will provide a good launchpad to get us our second listing and we will have discussions about potential exchanges over the coming days.

I would also like to take the opportunity to express my personal gratitude to all those involved that have made this trade happen. The ongoing support of the community is great to see and I hope we can build on the momentum generated over the last month or so to reach new heights."

2nd Exchange listing is coming soon

quote from one of their tweets - guess they're working on it

"CMC requires listing on 2 exchanges that they integrate with. That said, there is a community donation wallet for an exchange listing on the Discord and an ongoing discussion as to which exchange we want to aim for."

CNAv1 is known to be vulnerable to pool-creation with some simple mods. That being the case, does Blur intend to fight against pools or to embrace them and keep the GPU resistance?

Looks like the Dev has been hard at work making the Algorithm more GPU / ASIC and Pool resistant. (Cryptonight Adaptive v3 in the works according to the repo)

Ok - so here's what I've discovered from their subreddit (in a post re: their GUI).


https://www.reddit.com/r/remixcoin/comments/9ifhjs/initium_novum_remix_gui_wallet_release_and_update/



"Graviex is ready to list RMX, that TradeOgre is soon to follow, and that we will use the developer fund to reimburse the listing fee."



So it looks like Exchanges will be coming soon

also doesn't look like the Devs care to update Bitcointalk....

Well - here is a link to the GUI wallet downloads for Mac / Windows / Linux

https://github.com/a3rk/remix-gui-wallet/releases

There's no exchange yet that I know of.

Well it looks like my guesses have been a bit off. That said - I'm going to give the same predictions for 2019. 30k sats by EOY 2019. That's 10x from now in 15 months time. Let's do this.

Have a question for the dev? There's an AMA collecting questions here

https://www.reddit.com/r/Nerva/comments/9j1xju/post_your_questions_for_an_angrywasp_nerva_dev_ama/

The NERVA Discord channel has an Exchange donation wallet, and is in the process of vetting options. - hopefully soon though - only 1 more exchange and we'll be on CMC finally

fyi: Nerva still Open on TradeOgre


From the dev AngryWasp:

“I just got asked in telegram why there were a heap of coins in maintenance but not nerva. This is what i said to them for people who don't care to go there

I have talked to them about it. There was a bug identified in an old version of monero. The patch had been applied to the monero codebase some time ago, but forked coins may or may not have applied it. So a bunch got put into maintenance until such time as they provide proof of being patched. Nerva is not affected as I recently rebased the wallet code to monero which patched the bug. TradeOgre has also informed me however that the monero devs have indicated there may be more than one problem, but have not disclosed specifics. So there may be more problems ahead, but for right now Nerva is already patched for the bug that got all the other coins put into maintenance.”

Saw this posted on the Nerva subreddit and figured I'd share - https://i.imgur.com/Ph4w8KD.png

Also - I found this if anyone wants to know more about the algorithm that Nerva is using that allows it to be GPU / ASIC resistant and focused on CPU solo mining: https://bitbucket.org/snippets/nerva-project/keG5G8/the-cn-adaptive-v2-algorithm

For one thing - we can expect faster blocks https://github.com/masari-project/masari/commit/b0375a3b934fd004ebc8f79eb9e29a6794bf4ace - 60s block times are coming this way.

Yup - that's correct. Nerva is CPU only - no GPU / no ASICS and no Pools.

The most recent changes were a hardfork that implemented bulletproofs, a new multi-platform GUI wallet that is developed in-house (not a forked Monero wallet or something), WooCommerce integration is on the testnet, and once complete (since it has more of a direct impact on solo mining) - Uncle Mining from Masari will be merged.

Lots of cool stuff to look forward to.

Looks like the Dev has setup a test store to test out Nervas Wordpress - WooCommerce integration for taking XNV payments

It's all testnet right now, but looks exciting for the future!
