took a year but we are finally seeing improvements
BitBean was born on February 13, 2015. We're only 8 months in and we have nearly 4 months to go before we celebrate BitBean's 1st. birthday! Meanwhile, I expect that we will see much of the existing roadmap completed before then. Cheers! Looking forward to the new (or revised) road map, is an Android wallet still in the plans? Lots of people have old Android devices lying around and if they are capable of staking it'd be a nice low power alternative to running a computer or laptop 24/7. Using less power would make staking bitbeans even more green to boot! In the absence of a staking android wallet, the StakeBox at StakeBox.comis a low energy consuming, 24/7 staking alternative.

I would also like to chime in here. I think that inyereye raised some very valid points that should be addressed, not just ignored. Your response, telling him to "get your shit and get out" is wholly inappropriate. We are all human, we all screw up. What sets us apart is some of us have the ability to own up to our mistakes, apologize, make things right, and move on. Hopefully you, Shawn Kent, can be one of those people, that is the type of dev and community leader this coin needs. If you want to bring more investors into the fold you will need to change your current M.O.
I see a lot of potential with this coin, we have a network with a 20MB block size that functions perfectly. Now instead of hyping your investment in actual beans with all kinds of silly pictures, go and figure out how we can put that 20MB block size to good use and I think you will see people begin to sing your praise, rather than call you out for your misdeeds. Once you have a track record of setting and achieving goals feel free to post all the pictures of your breakfast, or pantry, or whatever.
Maybe get us that updated roadmap we were told would come, but don't set goals you can't keep. If the next thing you complete won't be for several months be honest about it. If you get something done ahead of schedule, that's much better than months behind, with constant promises of soon, or next week.
I hold over 4 million BITB, not that that should make a difference, but I'm just throwing that out there since you foolishly seem to care more about those with a sizable holding.

So, a RPi2 wallet is needed? The StakeBox supports LiteDoge thanks to a request from s3v3nh4cks, check it out at StakeBox.com. You can download the wallet from our GitHub at https://github.com/StakeBox/litedoge, it has been available there for 11 days now. Depending on your setup you may also need a couple additional libraries, you can get them here, https://github.com/StakeBox/extra-libs. The bounty can be sent to dNKPBdo6UzBNZTevQCiHeqrvdCKfuJdyWp, thanks. Give full clear step by step instructions and promote LiteDoge POS mining on http://StakeBox.com. From a fresh install of Raspbian, execute "git clone https://github.com/stakebox/LiteDoge" and "git clone https://github.com/stakebox/extra-libs", that will get you the wallet binary and the additional libraries. This is compiled against libdb5.3, to get that you need to use the debian jessie repos. Execute "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list", in the first line change "wheezy" to "jessie", then press control+x to close, then "y" to save, and then press enter to accept the location. Execute "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get install libdb++-dev". There are some services that will be needed to be restarted, you will be met with a prompt asking if you would like them to be restarted automatically, just select yes and press enter. After this, you should change your source back to wheezy, just "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" again and change "jessie" back to "wheezy", and then "sudo apt-get update" again. Now simply copy the files in the extra-libs folder you downloaded into /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf with "sudo cp -a extra-libs /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf". Go ahead and fire up the LiteDoge wallet. As far as promoting LiteDoge PoS mining on my website, I don't promote any coins in particular. I am looking to provide people who don't want to muck around with all of the jumping through hoops with a plug and play staking device for any PoS coin they want, not to support any individual coin. I make my work available freely to anyone who doesn't mind getting down and dirty and doing the work themselves via GitHub. I feel like promoting LiteDoge is outside the scope of the bounty, which remember is only worth slightly more than $2. If you disagree, than that is fine, enjoy the freebie.

It is, there is no need to compile anything. If any one of the folks who was requesting it would like to give it a go and report back, that would be cool.

I haven't updated this thread in a long time, but that doesn't mean nothing has been going on. For anyone interested, some of the recent advancements are:
Support for several new coins has been added since my last post here, the current list of supported coins includes Archcoin, BitBean, BlackCoin, Bottlecaps, Cash, Clam, Crave, DarkTron, Diamond, FlutterCoin, GoldPieces, HoboNickels, HYPER, HyperStake, LiteDoge, Mintcoin, Navajo Coin, Netcoin, NovaCoin, OKCash, Pandacoin, Paycoin, PayCon, Peercoin, Philosopherstone, Ratecoin, ShadowCash, Sprouts, TEKcoin, and Vericoin.
Updating the UI and wallets has been made into a simple, one click process.
The value of the coins in your wallet is automatically calculated and shown in BTC and your choice of fiat currency.
A lot of small features have been added at the requests of current users of StakeBoxes.
There are other features and functions in the works, and as always requests and comments are welcomed and encouraged.

Hi. Yes, the Mac Hyper wallet is not supported currently. 1. Yes. I've personally used my wallet.dat files from a PC and moved them to Ubuntu. You should always keep a copy of your wallet.dat file before transferring it. I would suggest keeping it on a flashdrive from your Mac. Then after you install the wallet on the new Windows machine, close the wallet, and copy (so you have a copy on your flash-drive too) your wallet.dat to your Windows computer into the folder C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Hyper. Then when you run the wallet again, after it syncs, your funds should be the same as before. 2. Personally I think it will work fine, because Hyper doesn't seem to need much to run, but I can't be completely sure on this. I don't believe there are minimum requirements listed for running the Hyper wallet. Maybe someone who knows more about computers can handle that question. Thank you for the response. Hopefully someone else will chime in about the hardware requirements. Just a thought - would it be a better solution to install Ubuntu through Bootcamp and then run the Linux version of the wallet or to get a Windows micro pc? Any thoughts are appreciated. That would depend on you personally. As long as you know how to use Bootcamp and set up Ubuntu, then it shouldn't be too difficult to set up the wallet. I believe HYPERFuture said the Linux wallet is easier than ever to get running. You can also do this before going ahead and buying another computer, so that's good. If you need any help installing Ubuntu or the Hyper wallet, feel free to ask. Just remember to always save a copy of your wallet.dat file elsewhere. It's especially important when installing operating systems. HYPER wallet on Git is now very easy to install on Linux. Otherwise, a small dedicated HYPER staking machine is a great idea. Eventually, I want someone to release one of these. You could try a Raspberry Pi, if it goes well maybe you can sell dedicated, preconfigured HYPER staking machines for HYPER Great, thanks. I think I'm going to give the Linux install on the Mac a shot this weekend and see how it goes. I'll be sure to back up the wallet.dat before attempting. I'll also be sure to post how it goes - good or bad. Love the idea of a dedicated staking machine! Hope to set something like that up down the road, but probably not until we hit 100,000 Sats I was just caught this conversation and thought I might chime in real quick. HYPER is now supported on the StakeBox, check it out, StakeBox.com.

A new dedicated staking device is now available, the StakeBox. Are you tired of worrying if the web browsing, or other activities you do on your home computer may be putting your coins at risk? Cryptocurrencies are a prime target for hackers, and all varieties of malware. All of your online activities on your computer that is also hosting your wallet are a potential vector of attack on your precious coins. Leaving your computer running 24/7 to help secure your favorite blockchain, and receive some staking income in exchange is using excessive electricity. There is generally no need to consume an entire desktop's, or even laptop's, worth of electricity in the process. Our product is the result of that thought process. The StakeBox uses less than 5 watts of electricity, requires no additional hardware or software, is completely silent, is capable of running multiple wallets simultaneously, and has a footprint not much bigger than a credit card. Access to your wallet is available from any internet enabled device on your home network via a simple, intuitive web UI. from there you can do more or less anything your wallet is capable of doing including, but not limited to, checking your balance, send and receive coins, view transaction history, encrypt your wallet, etc. Most devices can simply go to the URL stakebox.local/, for access from Android devices you must find the devices local IP address on your routers admin page and point your browser there. If you desire, you can also attach a keyboard and mouse, and hook it up to your TV or monitor via HDMI, there you will be greeted by a full blown OS with GUI where you can use the full Qt wallet. For more information check it out at StakeBox.com. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have, we are here to help.

Just wanted to let everyone in here know about our dedicated staking hardware. Save electricity, and increase your coin's security, get them off of your home computer, and onto the StakeBox. Check it out at stakebox.com. Go ahead, get your long term support cred, buy the device meant to stake your coins for the long haul. Seems expensive for a staker. Half price and even better: http://blockchaintechs.com/And they even have a contest going. (only 3 days left!!) You can win a free staker for as little as 1 entry. Super cheap, as you can grab some for only 900 satoshi right now!!!! What a deal!! http://contest.blockchaintechs.com/Interesting, I never saw their product. At first glance it would seem that you are half right, it does initially appear to be half the price, not sure what you think makes it's better though. The half price appearance falls apart when you attempt to order one. First, it seems that there is no way to actually get one for $50. Clicking on the custom configured staker option the price quickly changes to $60, that will get you the staker with an 8 GB micro SD and one wallet of the 4 coins that you can select, it doesn't even include a case. It is hard to make an apples to apples comparison between this product and ours, as 2 wallets seems to be the most they allow for and they seem to charge $5 per wallet. The prices they list also don't include shipping, a power supply, or the ethernet cable we include with the StakeBox. The closest comparison would have to be their 16 GB staker with 2 custom wallets, a case, and US shipping comes to $93. Then you have to go get a power supply and ethernet cable, lets say you get those things for $7, which seems reasonably inexpensive, you are at $100, the same cost of our product. I would argue that the availability of more wallets, and the lack of a need to source the power supply and ethernet cable would make our product the better deal. That said, I don't mean to bash their product. It's just that if you want to make a more objective comparison, there it is.

Check it out at stakebox.com. Go ahead, get your long term support cred, buy the device meant to stake your coins for the long haul. obviously there could be some "trust" issues here. but can i ask what have you got it running on? where can we find specs. like if someone wants to wipe and load again? overall though great idea ! I completely understand that there will be some initial trust issues, that was expected. Hopefully over time we will be able to earn the trust of the community by offering a safe, reliable product. It is based on the Raspberry Pi 2, beyond the specs of the Pi, what would you like to know? Only by interacting with the community can we work on developing a solid reputation and learn what other questions belong on the FAQ page, so thanks for asking. thanks - no just that - OS is Ras? are you Pre-loading and compiling clients? you do this custom for the buyer? or your OS is preset with all the clients you support? Yes, OS is Raspbian. Correct again on the pre-loading and compiling, and each one is set up custom for each customer. After imaging the micro SD the web interface is set up for the desired coins, then just the wallets requested are thrown on, and set up in an auto-start script.
