Yes but it was a promise to release it before April.
We figured keeping our promise is more important.

Viacoin Core 0.15.1 Released !

https://github.com/viacoin/viacoin/releases


focused on improving performance for initial block download if you are starting a new full blockchain download as well as faster new block validation and relay.

Viacoin Core 0.15.1 aims to cuts initial sync time in half compared to Viacoin Core 0.13.1

Chainstate Database restructure
change from per-transaction model to a per-output model
avoids CPU overhead
better predictable memory usage
   -> Faster reindex, 10-20% less memory

Assume valid blocks
allows script validation to be skipped for ancestors of known-good blocks.

p2p network refactoring
refactor code with focus on concurrency. Speed up block fetching several times.

UTXO cache claiming unused mempool
speeds up initial block download as UTXO lookups are a major bottleneck there, and there is no use for the mempool at that stage.

Block Relay Improvements
Increasing block propagation speed

No keypool refill flush
~20x speedup in creating a new wallet

Upgrade LevelDB
contains hardware acceleration for CRC on architectures supporting SSE 4.2. As a result, synchronization and block validation will be faster

New vialectrum version is released.
Vialectrum 3.1 !

Memory-pool based fee estimation. Dynamic fees can target a desired
depth in the memory pool.

A new version of the Electrum protocol is required by the client
(version 1.2).

Capital gains: For each outgoing transaction, the difference
between the acquisition and liquidation prices of outgoing coins is
displayed in the wallet history. By default, historical exchange
rates are used to compute acquisition and liquidation prices. These
values can also be entered manually, in order to match the actual
price realized by the user. The order of liquidation of coins is
the natural order defined by the blockchain; this results in
capital gain values that are invariant to changes in the set of
addresses that are in the wallet. Any other ordering strategy (such
as FIFO, LIFO) would result in capital gain values that depend on
the presence of other addresses in the wallet.

Faster sync time, syncs within seconds now --> Checkpoints: The initial download of a headers file was replaced
with hardcoded checkpoints. The wallet uses one checkpoint per
retargeting period. The headers for a retargeting period are
downloaded only if transactions need to be verified in this period.

The other Viacoin dev "Reorder" just finished my Viacoin in golang (viad) alternative implementation.

It's insane but the other dev seems to be 10x better than me. He's really 1337, elite dev.
He wrote Auxpow in golang (I think he's the first one who did it).

I'm impressed.

Backstory: Viacoin in Golang is based on Btcd. Btcd was created by the Decred developers and Decred was made by using Btcd.

Github commit: https://github.com/viacoin/viad/commit/a70d8b313569e40c6a17a3d1c7d5266f3ea96514

Exactly. Longterm it's the best to stay ethical.

Could be. Right now funds are being used for development.
Since people wanted to see Viacoin getting listed on Binance, we paid the fee. It was not fee. We are talking about Lambo prices.
Paying all these types of things + development is not an easy task without going bankrupt.

Marketing will improve over time, yet I don't wanna make Viacoin too corporate (since it's not a company) or unethical like Verge by spreading lies. 

Some vialectrum issues. Another engineer is looking at it. If you are in a rush, click the second link on reddit reddit.com/r/viacon
But don't worry much about it, your funds are safe as long as you sent it to the right address.

Yes. Wallet syncs, transactions work

Core 0.15 will be released very soon. We are trying to fix the last couple bugs.

New Viacoin explorer (Insight): https://explorer.viacoin.org/

This is required for Trezor 

From the previous owner.
It was not my ico. Just to add.

For anyone who had problems connecting to Vialectrum.

I released 3.0.5 (Not tested fully yet, so backup your seed ofc)
I added 2 Vialectrum nodes extra and 2 TOR hidden service nodes for more "privacy"

https://github.com/vialectrum/vialectrum/releases/tag/3.0.5

It will say "unverified" when sending/receiving but there's a sync issue I am trying to solve.
However you can ignore that issue, vialectrum works.

I'm going to ignore that brainlet.

I can not pm newbie accounts. Reach out to me on Twitter.

If anyone wants to sell $VIA OTC in sizes of 10 BTC+ minimal 
PM me or send me a telegram message.

A new potential investor is looking for a ± 120 BTC worth of VIA as OTC deal.

More OTC buys/sells can be arranged. Trying to get an OTC market running for investors to get in more easily. Market buying is not the ideal option for them.

For the Avarage users I recommend Ledger Nano. Currently working on a Viacoin Trezor 2 implementation.
