Are there any coins are free distributed to the public?

Hi Stellar squad. Tried registering my email to join the slack group but I never received any invites. Checked spam but it's not there either. Never faced this issue with other slack channels. Could you check this please?

Just owning BTC will allow you to participate. We will announce exact details in the next few weeks.

Does it count if I own them on an exchange or I will have to withdraw?

I had over 500k stellar on poloniex that I bought on the high end for about 1300 a looong time back and decided to sell them myself after looking in on them and noticing that chart showing where it dumped to on polo.Didnt want to take the risk they would go down to where they were dumped and stay there like most people would think after seeing that so I sold them all off at about 430 making a big loss(well for a peasant like me it seemed like a big loss) so I appreciate where the guy above is irrate even though he is using abusive language.I have set a sneaky order down low of course but only where it would recoup what I have lost and get me back into stellar but apart from that I am out myself but good luck with your project.

There is this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.xcoins.centaurus&hl=en
But yeah it would be nice if people improved this wallet.

This usually means you already signed up for it with that email. Can you email jed@stellar.org and I'll get it sorted.

More details coming soon but it will depend on your exchange.

Sorry, but lack of a pc/mac/linux wallet is unacceptable

I may be able to contribute, how can I contact the developer Tobias?

@toThemJoy awesome, all of the code is on GitHub. Tobias also hangs out a lot on Stellar Slack, so you can easily get in touch there (username powderfan)

I did some practice on your steller.org site and got a message.

" Your test account is all set! Save your keys to make other API calls on the network. "

what's it meant?

@kame.japan2 it sounds like you created an account on the Stellar test network. Congrats! You can now try out other API commands in the Stellar Laboratory. For instance, you can send lumens, issue your own asset, and build a multi-signature transaction.

Thanks Eva. I will see lab and slack tomorrow morning.

Data Management, Federation, and Coinstar for Coffee Beans

Follow the link for a roundup of technical updates and news from the past couple of weeks.

Technically, some highlights are:

• the ability to attach any key/value pair to a Stellar network account. Using the manage data operation, the account can have an associated encryption key, publicly attest to some fact, or provide other metadata about itself.
• Stellar.org dev Bartek also built a prototype of a Go cold wallet designed for Raspberry Pi. (If you give it a try, please be sure to attempt transactions on the testnet first).
  

For broader ecosystem news, check out Stellar integrator bext360's proposal for Ideo.org's Open Challenge: Stellar-powered smart coffee kiosks that automatically pay out farmers in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Each kiosk, which functions like a Coinstar for coffee beans, will serve around 4,000 farmers.

Interesting application of the Stellar network: Social media network Philafy will use Stellar to transform social media “likes” into micro-donations.

Considering the amount of STR that is yet to be distributed, this shit is not going anywhere but down for the foreseeable future.

We’re Giving Away 3 Billion Lumens to Bitcoin Holders

(an announcement from Stellar.org cofounder and CTO Jed McCaleb)

When we were designing Stellar, Bitcoin acted as a profound inspiration. The Bitcoin network was the first to show that it's possible for a group of untrusted parties to agree on a common database, and the Bitcoin community still influences our understanding of this technology's impact.  

With all that in mind, Stellar.org has reserved 19% of the initial lumens—a total of 19 billion lumens—for people who hold bitcoin. On July 5th we’ll make available these lumens to any bitcoin holder who wants them.

How will it work?
We'll give away the 19 billion lumens in several rounds. The first round will consist of 3 billion lumens.

Read about the full details here.


Hope to see you on July 5th!

tldr the rich get richer and 3 billion lumens get dumped in July. also exchanges that do not participate might get in trouble if a lot of people suddenly withdraw their BTC.

[bitbite111]

bought 20,000 lumens (stellar) from poloniex

Ouch. Prolly shouldnt take trade advice from a forum.

[bitbite111]

Step aside Stellar, You had your chance and dropped the ball. Time for WAVES to do the job right.
