I think we need to notify exchanges now. Is anyone in contact with them ?
Considering that this coin was listed then de-listed from exchanges, should we consider a re-brand ? We'll need a massive push at re-launcg because it would be nice to get it listed on more exchanges and have some hype.
There are only two exchanges that I'm aware of: NovaExchange and Yobit. The latter one is unreliable and there is a big chance that they will not even update to a new chain. Too busy scamming people with their p&d ieos and icos. I will contact Novaexchange but they will most likely ask for the source code. I'm not sure about the re-brand, what should be the new image for TALK? But we'll definitely need a new Bitcointalk thread, Twitter account, and probably Discord or Telegram channel for chatting.

Block explorer is not working. Has Dev completely abandoned the project?
looks like YoBit has taken down the market - probably 100% dead now as if that wasnt already the case (maybe yobit crashed across the board) Not sure what site are you looking at but pkb market is still on Yobit. Just the wallet is still in maintenance.

Hi there. Have you done this before? Those are very clear instructions.
Can others confirm this is the way to do it? If it takes 1 hour only... would it use less than the 3.3 gb someone else said is this wallet?
In my case the blockchain weights 2.7Gb, not 3.3. And there is plenty of guides out there that describe how to use blockchain snapshot if you want to verify. Unless you live on one of the countries where google is banned.

Okay anyone that has beancash in the wallet can tell me specifically how do i do this if i don't want it to take long to sync?
I want to download wallet... then have beancash sent from exchange to it... without waiting a long time for it to sync.
1.Start your wallet. The folder "BitBean" will be automatically created in your C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming directory 2. Close the wallet. 3. Go to that "BitBean" folder and delete everything except for your wallet.dat file 4. Download this archive https://mega.nz/#!UUgSlaTQ!fDtR0uqVcGS6s7BsF57P3ht9KlPAB0MMcL7v_FNzhTM and extract everything into your BitBean folder. 5. Run the wallet again. It should sync much faster now (less then an hour I suppose).

In this interesting interview, Dr. Datta shares his views on the partnership with #Radium and the future of #crypto in general. http://bit.ly/sajibinterview... Very nice read guys. No doubt Radium will benefit from this and similar partnerships.

Great. I have been looking around to see what users want from projects in the crypto space, it seems real life uses other than the p n d cycle have strong pull. I will list TALK as a supported currency in my own project and will try to contact others to do the same.
Yes real life use is the best a crypto project can achieve

Yes, if that is indeed the case. However ,
1) I've noticed that active wallets != circulating supply. The vast majority of coins are kept on exchanges . This is why even coins with large communities struggle with maintaining strong node networks. I think the removal of a zero should be considered. So let's investigate further then come to a decision. 2) No, ROI remains the same. 3) Should we make the minimum 4 or 8 hours ? 4) & )5 Is the cost reasonable ?
Also, should we actively remove the balances of coins we know are in exchanges, to prevent them silently re-introducing those coins later when they have value ?
1) We should specify that the vast majority of coins are kept on Poloniex exchange I'm sure there is 99,9% chance it won't activate its wallets again. And a couple of millions are held on Yobit which is also not clear what's gonna happen to them. 3) 4hrs sounds good to me. 4) 5) The cost is reasonable cuz as far as I can see from some other MN coins with small communities, there is usually not more than 50 MNs online, sometimes much less. If TALK grows bigger, then we can make some more adjustments to this. I think it's ok to remove Poloniex balances.

Yeah, almost all modern features available in other currencies will be available. I have been wondering if the community would be open to dropping a zero in the swap. Note that that i make a lot of assumptions in the positive in this proposal :-
1) We drop a zero so if you currently have 1 000 TALK , when the new chain starts, you have 100. This will result in the current supply being denoted as 6.9 million. 2) We then place a cap at 12 million, and allow assets to be issued on the chain later. 3) Minimum stake age at 4 hours with 25% stake to encourage current holders to stake and bring in new users. 4) Introduce servicenodes (developing services will take time but i have ideas) to encourage users to have 24/7 online nodes. 5) servicenodes cost will then be 1000 TALK.
Now for the assumptions :-
If we assume that 50% of supply is lost in exchanges/wallets etc, we have an effective supply of ~ 3.5 M. Assuming as well that users new and old create ~ 200 servicenodes , the circulating supply would go down to 3 million. With the dropped zero and the removal of a large chunk of the supply from the markets for staking as well as servicenodes, the price will pick up. The next move would be a steady flow of developments and updates as well as user pressure on exchanges to list the coin. This should make for an adequate swap path that results in renewed interest in TALK.
Note the above is just an optimistic proposal, feel free to add/remove/change whatever you like.
1) Dropping a zero might not be the best idea cuz last time I checked the circulating supply in the active wallets was around 3-5mln TALK and there is a good chance that all other wallets are gone forever. So if we drop a zero from 5mln TALK, wouldn't it make it too scarce with 300-500k supply? 2) If you place a cap does it mean the ROI will be gradually decreasing in time? 3) 25% sounds good to me 4)5) Servicenodes is a good idea to implement.

... Except since TALK was delisted almost 5 years ago, they may have deleted the wallet.dat? And most accounts with TALK might be abandoned long ago.
I'm afraid that's the case. Even if they still have wallet.dat file they won't re-enable withdrawals, maybe unless there is huge community demand. But TALK's community is now to scarce right now. P.S. Blockchain Mechanic, any news?

HmmMAA, Thanks for the update! Great to see that the project is alive and moving.

Can someone send some coins to this address please CKD3J1pEzJULXEZGGMiiayPuPnWV8q2c9C.
Done.

HI all
1) Old wallet does not compile in ubuntu 18.04.So i had to swith to 16.04 version.
2) initial sync from scratch failed , am trying a fresh one again. This is crucial as I need a prestine copy of the chain synced with -txindex.
Will keep you updated.
Hey if you need it, here's my blockchain snapshot that I uploaded yesterday: https://mega.nz/#!tJI00CoY!EAfKYAiUP0MmF9_PKa0S9-Qn1sKndH3Mfo3P6UR-PL8

My suggestion is to get the Yobit chain reconnected (the fork) via finding whatever node they are on.
Then there are 2 TALK chains. There is no "true" chain, they are both out there. The community just needs to pick one. Re: yobit
reconnecting is possible. but it would be a fork, like bcash to BTC.
By "reconnecting" I mean just finding the ip node that is yobit. And possibly providing a bootstrap to the yobit_fork. I'm still insisting on keeping just one "true" chain which is the longest chain with Nova and Chainz explorer on it. No need to create any of those TALK cash or TALK SV or whatever forks Besides there is always a possibility that yobit puts the wallet in maintenance and keeps it like that forever. Although I heard that they were planning to do some big maintenance works for lots of wallets this week so there is a chance they will finally do something about TALK wallet too. I also provided them with a blockchain snapshot and active nodes not too long ago. So lets see what happens. If nothing then IMHO we should move on with the swap as suggested by Blockchain Mechanic.

Hopefully Bittrex review the project, see its big potential and reconsider the delisting. Dope has been listed there for almost 5 ears if I'm not mistaken!

My opinion: 1. Forget about Yobit, they are incompetent. Novaexchange on the other hand is always responsive to users and Devs. So should focus on their chain. 2. Possibly chain swap with old balances intact but have to keep in mind that most of TALK is gone on Poloniex and other dead exchanges and will never be recovered (See the block explorer). The real supply is much lower than 69mln TALK. So some space for discussion here. 3. Pick up some modern base with both staking and masternodes?

That's one nicely written letter you sent them. Hopefully Bittrex will review their decision regarding EGC.

I don't think you'll find anyone crazier than me . 0.025 is only 160k of marketcap . It's a gift, right? I'm not sure that's a gift. There are around 1000 other projects with a marketcap less than 160k. Lots of them even have dev teams That's true, but you're forgetting two important things. 1. Sync is one of the few projects with few coins , It's interesting and that's why most of us came at the beginning. 2. SYNC is going to be worth $250,000 , or so the developer said. XD Gonna keep my fingers crossed then
