Super quick review: Have purchased BitStickers, quick shipment, quality is perfect for the price, give these out as gifts all the time. Who hates stickers? No one! Buy in bulk and give some out, feels good man.

It is with heavy hearts that we inform the community that we have lost one of our own: @adept.  An unceasing entrepreneur, @adept first came to the attention of Steemit when he began selling apparel through Amazon. @craig-grant told @ned; @ned contacted @adept; and the rest is history.  And that’s how thesteemitshop.com was born. Just recently he became a full-time employee and the people he worked with were excited about their future together. @adept was always cheerful and a pleasure to work or chat with. He was open-minded and eager to be of service to the blockchain world, to which he devoted himself very early on, having discovered Bitcoin in 2011. He followed all of the projects in the space, and is even credited with having created the Litecoin “Ł,” but was most generous with his support of Steem. One need only read his post My List of Steem Related Domains and Project Ideas to get an idea of his passion. Read the rest of the above post in it's original form here https://steemit.com/adept/@steemitblog/rest-in-peace-adeptRIP dude, thank you for your contributions to Litecoin and just the Crypto world |

Some good news, a VRC investor with an academic programming background similar to Doug and I has indicated interest in joining us. I'll be providing milestone payments as funding, as promised. More details to come after we figure out what we want to tackle first.
Awesome news, can't wait to hear what comes of this |

Worked perfect, thanks for that help and thanks again for cranking out an app I still have not seen anyone come close to.

Would like to request Verium from Bittrex be added, made by the Vericoin team.
I would also like to say I love your app and have put many people on to it.

I am not solving blocks and getting no Verium on a regular basis on three different machines, mining from day one. Two out of three have got something, like 17 on one, 6 or something on the other. If anyone can get a VPS going, I want to try and get a Verium wallet running but it does not seem to be set it and forget it easy enough . |

Don't forget that Bitcoin was originally developed to be mined with a simple PC using a CPU until someone was able to figure out how to us a GPU and ASICs where born.
This is so true. I had been with Litecoin since birth, one of the reasons being it took it back to giving the ability for any computer to mine. I won't say there was no way in hell that Satoshi didn't know ASICS and crazy crazy rigs would be at the level of the business it is today with mining and pools, but I do not believe it was the intention, and again, why something like Litecoin I believe was even able to get footing and literally create a whole new genre of currencies with "Altcoins", and I really loved how Litecoin had faster transactions and anyone could mine. Now we have Verium and something really new and beautiful with having this coin pair existing. What a time to be alive  The future is now, if you profit, make sure to spend too. I have been a user of Veribit within the Vericoin wallet for many a Gyft cards in my day and will no doubt be grabbing a few Amazon gift cards soon, but really hope to see VRC merchant use. |

If you are like me and had questions regarding this portion of the rewards given out, please head to this thread https://www.vericoinforums.com/threads/rewarding-the-top-250.1329/I am definitely leaning toward the side of shenanigans at the moment for inability to fairly distrubute that top 250 list, as I know that isn't one person who owns all 250, but there is definitely not a current system worked out that is showing that 250 people would be getting rewarded instead of 250 addresses' |

Yes, but if they've been staked recently the time will be about 0 anyway.
So individual addresses' get reset every time a payout is made? Found this post from a while back, does this same math apply to Vericoin staking |
|
|

Yes, wallet =/= VRC address. Make sure they're all in the same address. You can send to yourself (a particular address) if necessary.
250 was chosen because this will be a manual process and if we were to do every VRC address it would be time prohibitive.
Follow up question here, and it may not even make sense, but is stake time reset if coins go to a new address? |

The idea is that it rewards those that have been securing the network. It logistically doesn't make sense to award all the addresses because we will be manually checking balances and stakes to ensure that the owners fit the criteria for the giveaway. We don't want to award exchanges with VRC because they just hold and don't stake.
Not only that, but the amount of VRM we would like to give away is small compared to the ICO. It's simply a token of our appreciation for those that supported us. It's about as open as it could be with a public list, fair warning before the ICO, and direct distribution via identical public keys.
I guess things check out good so far, I mean, long ass users like myself who have been holding for years have in fact been securing this network up until this point. Wish rather than the 250 get the same amount, maybe the rewards just go down the line into smaller amounts, or a reward is based on percentage, but now it gets back to what someone else was saying regarding the rich getting richer. I guess more or less I might find issues on either side overthinking this. I trust whatever decision is made in the sense that you guys are open about it and this discussions have been taking place. I really do need to double check my balances in the main wallet. A wallet does not = a vrc address, right? Like if I had 200000 vrc, but they were put in 20 vrc increments into separate addresses, the combined total is what counts as the total wallet amount, right? |

Second, I would say I'm not as big of a fan of rewarding long time Vericoin holders or top 250 wallets with Verium. To me it just seems like it's a 'rich get richer' plot. I understand the idea is to rewards those who have stuck things out good & bad but in my opinion this only hurts those on the outside (who we want to get interested again).
I am not sure if I'm in the top 250, I know I have been at one point for sure, but even if I was number 1, there is something that isn't sitting well with that reward system in my mind and I'm not even sure why. I am a long term VRC user, and if there is a good way to quantify and make rewards with that fair, I am all good. It is just a weird situation where what is fair is being determined as we go, which I understand. I mean I guess things are fair in the sense we can all see what the top 250 are and if we wanted to buy enough to get high in that list to ensure a bonus. |
