I assume, devs are informed some time before delisting and that a small group around him/them are informed. When xch is hyped two months before delisting, then my conclusion is not out of the sky, that a pump is initiated to exit for those who know about delisting.

Your assumption is wrong. I only learned about it this morning when someone pasted Polo's tweet on Telegram.
Okay Drak, that is good and important to know.

I said months ago that it could be desisted seemed plainly obvious from the lack of community / development in the space.

When LTBCoin was scheduled for delisting the LTBC community rallied behind it and eventual the token was removed from the delisting schedule and given another chance.

For the moment, the practical thing is: we can keep our xch only on the clearwallet, not? Is it all safe there, seen the bit troubled recent posts about it? We have to keep our xch somewhere safe.

Maybe convert them into an XCP token !

Edit ironic that Gemz and XDP are also being delisted :

Thanks for the link, but I do not hear it specifically for Viacoin. There are more than 500 altcoins, so to me your comments are very speculative. I like to stay on topic and stick to the facts. I hope it will be answered.


Yep, and of those 500 altcoins it's a fact that Viacoin has been singled out lately by the big blocker/classic people, coincidence maybe but there are also people that have had issue since the Viacoin / Clearinghouse launch.  It was pointed out to me over a year ago. I'm not saying I agree or that Viacoin is a testnet scam but when you consider the lack of development and even maintenance in regard to Clearinghouse... it all looks very much like an experiment that although fun at times... didn't end too well. Smiley

I hope Drak is honest enough to shed some light on the future direction for you and if that is a continued hands off approach, what would you decide to do in regards to Viacoin Planet  ?

Hi,
As some of you may know I have started Viacoin Planet to discuss and create opportunities for Viacoin from business perspective.
Some connections have good plans and will be worked out on Viacoin Planet soon, but before I want to continue with that, I like to know where we stand with Viacoin from technical perspective.

What is the plan with Viacoin the upcoming year?
o   Is there a detailed plan to move forward on technical perspective?
           - If not, why?
           - If yes, what is that plan?
                  - Are there (extra) developers needed? And with what kind of skills?

Will Clearinghouse be further developed?
o   If not, why?
o   If yes, what are the plans?
          - Are there (extra) developers needed? With what kind of skills?

Will the Viacoin.org website being updated?
o   If not, why?   
o   If yes, what are the plans for this?
o   Is there help needed?
         - If yes, What kind of help is needed?
o      Could be an idea to make a website like bitcoincore.org?

From promotion/marketing/business perspective it is also important to know the answers on the above questions.

Hopefully Drak can answer these questions. From there we can move further with eachother, make Viacoin stronger and build up the community.


It's good that you've tried with Via and Clearinghouse... but it doesn't look to be going anywhere. It was kind of summed up in a recent interview, I'll try find you the link and you can hear for yourself what a joke it has become.

Edit: Here you go Ted, an interview with Adam Back at Miami Bitcoin Hackathon at 6:55 Interviewer asks the question about Altcoins

Interviewer "are they testnet scams or out of consensus bitcoin forks"
Back "err well I mean they are experiments"
Interviewer "haha testnet scams it is"

https://soundcloud.com/bitcoinuncensored/adam-back-interview-bitcoin-uncensored-at-miami-bitcoin-hackathon-012316#t=6:55

So,  there we have it and what's funny... is although they are not specifically talking about Viacoin, with all that happened with Todd the burned /forged coins etc ... do you see how the "testnet scam" label could be seen as fitting, specifically in the case of Viacoin?

How does that improve the Clearinghouse website, still with broken links, and what about updates to viacoin.org maintenance schedules blah blah?

thats a question only dev can answer

if you cant contribute anything meaningful,
if you are dissatisfied you can always "hearn" it Grin



I'm giving a constructive criticism and yes i already did "hearn it" lol

That might be the case!

Drak seems to have lost interest in this project and instead is focusing on his Core Dev work.

improvements to bitcoin are also improvements to viacoin
and vice versa

How does that improve the Clearinghouse website, still with broken links, and what about updates to viacoin.org maintenance schedules blah blah?

I remember why the supply was reduced , last ditch effort to pump the price. such a sham.

You know what will follow, delisting of XCH there's already no block explorer.

@drak,

Two questions:
 - When will be the next maintainance release?
 - There is a guy named "Soliury" who is reaching out to you on twitter, github, etc. He likes to help. Can you give him a reply?
Hardfork coming. Check drak post on December 26

i thought hardfork already smoothly passed by without a glitch few days ago Grin
(already over 10 000 new blocks since then)



That might be the case!

Drak seems to have lost interest in this project and instead is focusing on his Core Dev work.

The Clearinghouse website is a mess and Viacoin.org looks like it's not been updated in ages.

Maybe he will do better with his bitcoincore website.  

Somebody remind me, what was the reason for reducing the total supply?
