Exactly, we are only beginning! Tomorrow I will take on the OP a little.. I don't like these texts/links etc.. They need a button... Also a few new icons will be added in the menus for a better visual experience ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Now that's what I call a thorough answer, awesome!
The mini-exchange idea sounds interesting, but don't underestimate the knowledge and security that are required to make it somewhat hack-proof. An audit might be in place, but that costs a LOT of money. Also a lot of time and effort are required if this is to be done properly. Is it safe to assume this mini-exchange idea is planned for a later stage when the coin has established a more solid base? Great idea nonetheless! I am well aware of the safety issues these kind of services have. Of course I will not make anything public before an audit has been done ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Glad to hear that! Curious to see the outcome of the mini-exchange, although it will take a tremendous amount of time, effort, and patience before anything can be made public. I agree, transitioning the coin from PoW to either PoS or a PoS/PoW hybrid might be a good move. How about combining PoS with a special staking reward program? Might make the coin even more interesting for (new) investors. If the community votes for a transition to PoS or PoS/PoW hybrid, will you start with a clean chain?
You're right about the fact that a lot of features have already been (newly) introduced by other cryptocurrencies. And it's not always necessary to reinvent the wheel, so I personally believe this gives Chipcoin a great opportunity to choose from a plethora of already developed features. How about creating - besides the PoS reward incentive - some sort of second layer incentive? Not sure if that will fit the concept of Chipcoin, but it was merely a quick thought. I have a few ideas in mind for PoS. I personally favor hardcoded pos blocks. As in 1 CHIP per PoS block instead of rewards based on a yearly %. It has to be worth it to stake your coins! The bad news is, this will probably involve a swap, so a new chain indeed... Coding PoS into the current source is one hell of a job to do.. And requires a lot of testing. It is way easier to clone a solid working source, and built the coin's future features from that ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) +1! I like your way of approaching this, making it actually worth something to stake your coins. If a swap really appears to be necessary then so be it, even more so if it might affect the coin's future in a positive way. Hmm.. I honestly don't see any added value in nor the need of creating a merchandise store let alone merchandise in itself. Why would anyone want to buy a Chipcoin shirt? Unless I have misinterpreted the idea, could you elaborate on this? Perhaps focussing on social media actions (like the Twitter campaign you mentioned) to create more awareness is a better move. A whitepaper would be great, looking forward to the first draft. My compliments about your interaction with the community. I like how you discuss everything with the community first and keep up the positive vibe. KUDOS to you! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Really curious to see where Chipcoin will be heading. A webshop with merchandise is pure service. Some people really do buy shirts and other stuff of the coin they support. Besides that a few other things will be added as well overtime ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Honestly I haven't thought of it like that. You might be right, guess I just didn't see myself buying merchandise.. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Lovely feature update, great to have more insight into the network. Ever thought of adding a second Block Explorer besides Blockpioneers in case one goes down?

Anyone should do what they think they should do ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I am not concerned about the price/buy or sell orders etc. Dumpers give new people a chance to buy in. Also.. I am slowly buying myself each day.. Every chip is a chip.. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Was going to ask if anyone was having a problem with wallet synching, but went to explore and saw no block ofund in 2 hours . My wallet says synching 2 hour behind.
Hopefully it is going to resolve itself??

I noticed this as well.. I am monitoring.. AND mining.. We need to act fast.. Its been a week since I asked for opinions about PoS.. Only one or two replied to it.. We need to go PoS asap after tonight.. This means a swap will occur soon. Meanwhile.. please keep mining to keep the chain moving.. It seems the miners just stopped... I only have about 4 mhs myself.. which I will throw in... If this does not resolve by mining a few hours.. we need a more drastic measure ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I will contact exchanges tomorrow about PoS plans. Now I need some sleep.. its 6 in the morning here..

Either a swap to PoS or a code update with higher PoW blocks for miners Its a shame it doesnt work out like I hoped... But this was in the back of my head ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) EDIT: I will keep hashing for a while.. now some sleep

I like your way of approaching this, making it actually worth something to stake your coins. If a swap really appears to be necessary then so be it, even more so if it might affect the coin's future in a positive way. With regards to moving from PoW to PoS - I fully agree, however, it shouldn't be just another PoS coin. Instead, it would be great to have a custom reward schedule that really differentiates Chipcoin from other coins. Just a quick thought, haven't really thought this through (yet) so I don't know if this will work... But how about basing the stake reward on both a collateral for a minimum amount of coins held in the wallet, and the amount of time you're staking? So for example there are 5 reward levels:Level 1 Stake rewardCollateral: minimum of 50.000 CHIP held in wallet Reward: Level_1_reward (x1.0) Level 2 Stake rewardCollateral: minimum of 100.000 CHIP held in wallet Reward: Level_1_reward (x1.1) Level 3 Stake rewardCollateral: minimum of 200.000 CHIP held in wallet Reward: Level_1_reward (x1.2) Level 4 Stake rewardCollateral: minimum of 400.000 CHIP held in wallet Reward: Level_1_reward (x1.3) Level 5 Stake rewardCollateral: minimum of 800.000 CHIP held in wallet Reward: Level_1_reward (x1.4) You get the idea.. Thoughts on this guys? Like I said: No idea if this can or will work, so any feedback, criticism, opinions, etc. are more than welcome! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I am now hashing for 36 hrs, and the blocks keep popping in... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
