Just got an email notification that Shift is shutting down their card as of April 11th: Just as an FYI to everyone in case for some reason you did not get the email. -Dave Dear Shift Cardholder,
We hope you enjoyed using the Shift Card and truly thank you for your loyalty.
We, unfortunately, will be retiring the program in April of this year. All Shift Cards will be officially deactivated on April 11, 2019. Don't worry, your Shift Card will continue to work until that date. Feel free to email support@shiftpayments.com. if you have any questions and we'd be happy to answer.
We hope to re-launch the program and issue new cards in the near future. Thank you for your patience!
Sincerely, The Shift Team

Thanks guys for keeping this coin alive and kicking.
Do you still have access to the domain? It's now just a redirect to some ICO site. -Dave

Mine just came in. Look great. Thanks for making these. -Dave

So sometime overnight mine locked up. I could get to the GUI but nothing "worked" I could SSH in but after entering the password nothing. Did a full power cycle when I came in and I could ping it but not much more. Burned a new SD card and now it's happy again.

A few options on the table. PM May makes a deal (P2P will depend on said deal), No deal happens meaning WTO trade rules, leaving process delayed meaning status quo and finally don't leave at all. P2P won't change for any of those options.
Thanks. -Dave

Or there are no stupid questions just stupid people... I'm US based. Anyway, I do a fair amount of trading (old PC / techstuff on another forum) with some people in GB. I know B2B stuff will have to deal with some things if Brexit happens (hard or soft) Is P2P going to have any changes? Seems like a VERY simple answer but nobody can tell me. The other forum was useless as I think I am one of the few (only?)active P2P people on there.
Thanks, Dave

Previous wallets will no longer function at that point. Even if an older wallet is coded with the new pchmessage, all blocks generated by it will be rejected and a small percentage of its sent transactions will actually be accepted (due to DER encoding).

I am still not sure what truely happens here. To everyone here: The old members do get more and more quiet, as there is heavy (and plausible) uncertainty, what will happen to existing funds (despite that ones of one person) in the future. Shortly: Just why should ANYONE ELSE look at this inception as it would be an improvement? I only am citing from the above: "Previous wallets will no longer function at that point. Even if an older wallet is coded with the new pchmessage, all blocks generated by it will be rejected and a small percentage of its sent transactions will actually be accepted (due to DER encoding)." Now: What is the implication that should be a benefit to NDL-Holders, is this a win-win case or another robbery? So far there has not been a single positive argument for the less negative cases, so I still don't know what to think about it, - and because of that: Please everyone do your own dd. Greez. n. PPS: By the way, my announcement of sending 30 Million NDL to someone who creates an up to date wallet for this coin is still alive. It only should be a benefit for everyone involved benefitely ... so, perhaps we will have two chains in near future. The only difference is that if you are mining you have to mine with the new wallet. If you have funds in an old wallet they are safe. If you want to CPU mine now instead of just dropping to the console and typing setgenerate true, you have to put in a conf file and run a CPU miner. If you were mining with a video card nothing has changed. -Dave

As for the "dust" issue, pay now or pay later it costs the same. You still have to move the change in a transaction when you spend it later.
If you keep your eyes open it might actually be less as if you are saving it outside your normal hot wallet you can consolidate when fees are low.
Will probably go with the pay to many theory and see if that works for me.
Thanks everyone.

This is kind of an odd question. Is there a way / do any wallets support sending change to an address that is not part of that wallet?
I am assuming the answer is no, but I figured it could not hurt to ask.
I was thinking it would be a kind of simple way to save. Kind of like some credit cards round up your purchase to the next dollar and put the change in a savings account. Same basic concept, every time I buy something a bit gets dropped in an offline paper wallet.

Side note, why do you need a copy? well staking pays pretty good around here; need a wallet to do that tho, always a good idea to run a node ... Oh, I get that. But unless you can actually sell / trade them staking does not pay pretty good as you put it. Staking just generates more coins pretty well. Now, don't get me wrong I have a bunch staking too, but looking at it objectively it's just a waste of CPU cycles, drive space and some power. Since the machine that the wallet is on, is just one of many virtual machines that I have wallets running on it's no big deal. But still it's the "why am I doing this" question. -Dave
