[ANN] SLING | Fully Working DECENTRALIZED MARKET in Wallet | SLING MARKET LIVE

[MCDev]

Does anyone have more than 3 connections to their wallet? I only have 3 connections right now and was curious if that's what other people had as well?

I have 20 connections with previous version (without i2p version- sling-qt-slingroad-1.3.6.7.zip)
I had connections prob with new versions.

Well I don't have any connection problems my wallet is still working fine I just only have 3 connections so I was curious if anyone else was experiencing that as well but thanks for getting back to me regarding that mate

Hi all
Just downloaded the windows wallet and setup up but can't get any connections.  Using the node list from the OP.  It's been about 3 hours and just wondering if there is any magic I'm missing.  I have port 30137 open outbound on my firewalls and my log is showing connections established but then closed

Log type: Firewall service
Status: A connection was closed because no SYN/ACK reply was received from the server. 
Rule: Sling Wallet Out 30137

Also, has anyone compiled the Windows QT and the headless daemon under Ubuntu?  I've spent hours trying to get both compiled without success;

Connections are fine here for me.  

I compiled the Linux QT, went ok on Ubuntu 14.04
Remember it needs libsecp256k1

Did this:

Code:

apt-get install qt5-default qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev-tools \
    build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
    libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
    libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev

sudo apt-get install automake libtool git build-essential

git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1
cd secp256k1
libtoolize
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
sudo ldconfig

git clone https://bitbucket.org/dgslayer/sling.git
cd ~/sling
qmake "USE_UPNP=-"
make

any news ?? when rebrand ??

this coin in my opinion doesn't need to compete against other coins but if it works as good as you guys say. start going up against the big tor markets . if people start using it for actual commerce the market cap for sling would be a million easy. I think if it works its a matter of finding all the blogs where these dark net ppl chat. maybe offer an incentive for some of the best weed dealers or something to get the ball rolling.

Agreed, would be nice if we could fix the synch issues with the i2p wallet tho.

I think we need more people on i2p and it would sync fine.  
Might try to set up a couple more computers just to have more i2p connections available, would help if other people could maybe do that too or get more connections up.

I talked to some darknet people and sadly, they don't understand too well the concept of a trustless, autonomous/escrow based market YET.
It will take time I guess, to explain how its a more simple and better way to conduct their business.

If someone is good with graphics,  maybe draw up an info/workflow graphic of how the market, transaction, escrow, messaging and coin works.
Simplified, pictorial type education seems to work good.

If possible, it would be great if there could be some kind of implementation of a reputation system for sellers. Because in dark markets reputation is everything and crucial for business transactions to happen

I agree that's a really good idea because that's what I always looked for when I ever used darkmarkets for ummmm purchases

Edit: I think it would be easy to have a "star" rating system where it would show average out of 5 stars and the number of people that reviewed, or clicked a star rating.
Problem is if that could be gamed somehow.  That is why I previously suggested an i2p review site/forum.

To easy imo, just make a new address, or a new wallet and send your coins.  Depending on how distant you want to make yourself from the bad rep.

If someone has 1 bad review out of thousands of good reviews, odds are they could still be trusted.

I guess it depends how much bad rep you would want to get away from.

[philipvdlinde]

I definitely agree with the statements being made here, a reputation system would allow for trust to be established for traders utilizing the sling market. Would be the next great step for this coin, am wondering if the dev can pull this off tho. Might be better to work on this reputation system than on some rebrand imo.

big dump today... 
very sick...

Just cheaper coins for me mate I didn't think I was going to hit the super low buys I had set but BOOM hit them all Cheers

[philipvdlinde]

fuck, this really destroys my trust in this coin. Over 50k was fucking dumped, really shows me that this coin has no marketmakers behind it. Sucks as this coin really seemed promising, dev also hasn't done anything for weeks so I don't know if he's still committed to sling.

[david1365]

WTF that was fkin idiot dump. 

[david1365]

I'm really wondering, where is the DG.Slayer ?

[david1365]

That fkin idiot person who dumped 50k SLING, instead of dumping at exchange and fucked up the market, could trade on bitcointalk     
Thid dump destroyed everything, really fucked up 

[NoobKidOnTheBlock]

Really someone dumped 50k of SLING!! SHIT I just thought a bit got dumped and I lucked out and caught my low buys haha Well here's hoping that it was a scare tactic hopefully

[david1365]

That was top wallet on bittrex.
