as the things on the 2018 roadmap are done, will we have an updated roadmap?
We have been planning to organize current status summaries of all goals not limited to those that were originally mapped out at the beginning of this year. We were discussing at the last meeting. While this will not be an updated roadmap per se, it will have direct correlation and will give community members a concise gauge of the goals projected in the 2018 roadmap. It is noted to make those correlations more obvious where they apply to goals of the 2018 roadmap. Time permitting with visual aid, but at least with highlighting of some sort. Thank you for mentioning the need for more direct correlation now, as it will help us achieve just that during drafting.

Hmmm, error loading wallet 32 and 64 bit. Delete all appdata and resync ? update: Wallet ok The upgrade itself does not require a resync. One only needs to run their new executable and not their old. Glad you got it sorted.

Mac users: Your v1.8 binary is still being worked on at this hour. It will be delivered ASAP, an announcement made, the above link updated and this post removed at that time. Thanks for your patience!

EverGreenCoin v1.8 source code has been committed, https://github.com/EverGreenCoinDev/EverGreenCoin/releases/tag/v1.8.0.0Seednodes are being upgrade whilst I compose this. Exchanges will be contacted after all seednodes are upgraded and known to be stable. Windows and Mac binaries will be prepared ASAP. Barring any changes needed for those builds, cosmetics if any, the mentioned code will be used. The public release of Windows and Mac binaries will be slightly delayed for marketing reasons after their compiling and final testing, but only for a day or two. Please join us in Discord if you can't stand to wait, as community members there will have early access despite the marketing wait. Please know this marketing wait is as requested and to build hype. Please retweet or tweet! Team members are exploring options for a twitter campaign. If any bounties are offered, we will surely inform here. EverGreenCoin v1.8 is not a required upgrade. However; to benefit the many functional and aesthetic improvements, it is and will be strongly advised. It is nice! You'll be happy you did. To the treetop! p.s. I will get a video update for the month of September recorded ASAP. You can guess the star of that agenda! Due to time limitations, I may do that during the marketing wait window and when public release date will be known.

So the community is aware, we are delaying the release of v1.8 until next week. Several conflicts arose when merging all the changes together and while these conflicts have been addressed, addressing them has unexpectedly stretched the timeline slightly. This will give a few days to make sure nothing is missed, perhaps further polish, and better raise some anticipation / hype of the release.
Please know this is only done to better the release and ensure v1.8 meets and exceeds expectations. Thank you for your patience.

I am doing some research and it seems like there is no maximum supply. Am i right? With the coins created with PoS, inflation will just go on indefinitely?
As the emission protocol stands, yes. But here is a few points to consider: - Maximum inflation could be 7% annual. It is very reasonable to think growth will, perhaps easily, offset this.
- It will only be 7% annual if ALL coins are staked ALL the time. Neither are true. We estimate it to be closer to 3% from observations and statistical data is being recorded every hour to provide an accurate number.
- Coins get lost. Given the yobit fiasco and support tickets, I would venture to guess more than 7% annual already may have been. While these coins do still technically exist, they will most likely never see the light of circulation again.
Not specifically in regards to supply but, to look at any software and think it will not evolve over many years is irrational. We know in fact it must and will. With both the consensus needed by the network and the openness of the foundation board and community, you can rest assured knowing that when it does it will always do so in the best interest of the community. Policies are being drafted to ensure this will be the way EverGreenCoin continues past any of our lives.

Any updates with what this coin has done for the environment?
We have planted almost 25k trees through our various efforts.

Wait, so if I deposit more coins but do not withdraw, my current ~10k weight is gone ? Edit: NM, it rests anyway on oayout it seems. I've been thinking about this for a while but, how does Staking work exactly ? By that I just mean,how is it determined on what on earns?
Like right now my weight is north of 10k and I'm currently sitting on ~5.2k EGC.
All I truly understand is that you don't want to mess with / move coins around for staking to work.
You can move your coins, of course! But when you do so, the coin age is reset to zero days. Minimum coin age for EverGreenCoin is 1 day. What this means is that you will not be able to stake at the new address for 1 day and you will lose all the old coin age from the first address. Coin age is the biggest variable in determining weight. Weight determines frequency of rewards. All still equals 7% annual. Actually it has less to do with the address itself. But rather transactional blocks or, more commonly called, coin groups. We, for the purpose of this discussion and as you asked, have been assuming one group. But coins "at an address" are not what is staked, rather, coins "of a group" are. An address can have any number of groups. For example, if you are sent 1 EGC in a transaction from anywhere, it is a group. If you are sent 100 EGC, it is a different group. As far as stakig is concerned, it does not care of what address received the group, but that they are a group. Though the groups are organized by address. When you send coins, you can optionally select what groups the coins will come from to make up the inputs of that transaction. This is called "coin control" and can be enabled by selecting "Options" from the "Settings" menu option, then clicking on the "Display" tab of the options dialog, then you will see the checkbox to enable coin control. After applying that change, you will notice you have some new options on the "Send" dialog of your wallet. Click the "Inputs" button now displayed on the sending tab of your wallet. You will see these groups and gain a better understanding how it determines on what one earns. All that said, the short of it is that one earns on all mature coins held in an unlocked and fully synced wallet.

I took a quick look on your website and whitepaper, sounds very promising, if you can deliver it will be a revolutionary platform
Thank you for your interest and for researching! It is very promising, and if I may say so, we have been delivering for almost 3 years. Despite the setbacks. We are smaller still, but have accomplished some amazing things already. The future will only bring more and bigger, thanks to diligence and our commitment to our environment. Welcome to EverGreenCoin, Chris! Viva la revolution platform!

Diligent work is ongoing for EverGreenCoin v1.8 and on several fronts! It does appear we will have the code compatible with Open SSL v1.1, as well as maintaining reverse compatibility with previous versions of Open SSL! Binaries will be built with Open SSL v1.1 and raspberry and newer-ubuntu users will not have to downgrade Open SSL to build themselves. The initial testing has been successful, but more rigorous testing continues this week. For those that not have followed closely, v1.8 will also include recoloring / redesigning of the UI to better match the logo, more functionally sound locking & unlocking when sending, a more consistently accurate staking for charity indicator, better support for translations of non-English languages, better support for 4k monitors, and displaying of the authorized efforts logo / image in the staking for charity dialog, perhaps even on the overview page / tab of the wallet when enabled. I am very confident that v1.8 will give us a strong step into 2019 and another exciting EverGreenCoin-year. Though that is not to say v1.8 will be the last release of 2018. Do expect EverGreenCoin v1.8 in this month of September. A more precise ETA will be made public as soon as possible. Thanks for the continued support! To the treetop!
