First they spread fud, but now bitcoin core will copy Vcash code

[I am the guy]

Oh how bct can be entertaining sometimes.   good laugh in the morning is what I needed.

Beyond that, as some Vcashiers mentioned before Vcash has had a code audit from poloniex. Aside from BTC Polo also included XVC in accepting single confirmations. Decentralized Governance is coming. Anyone is welcomed to test Vcash tech such as ZeroTime, Chainblender (Anon) etc or go to github check out the code yourself. You'll notice John is very active and pushing code constantly.

That's more than I can say for some "so-called" devs who spend all their time on bct trash talking instead of developing.   but that's more of my opinion.

If you are at all curious about the project and have questions have look at the forums. You can find more info about Vcash technology and the growing community. We have really exciting things coming down the pipeline. If want to be part of our community then join us at  v.cash/forum

When will decentralized governance kick in?

And how exactly is it handled.

I mean will all coins in circulation count. For example now we have 14 Mio. coins. Would it mean 14,000 coins would have 1/1000 impact on the decision?

IMHO there is no better straight up crypto than VCash.

with all the crazy hype flooding around new platforms, and new tech,  Vcash keeps working on the fundementals making a platform that does what Bitcoin was supposed to do
It is by far the most useable and straight forward project in this crazy space.

John is a former coder of some well known p2p projects in the past.

... In any case, his technological innovations are unimpressive...

Uninpressive?
Have you ever tried to use zero time? The transaction is completed in amazing 0.23 seconds.
In less than a half second you can send a payment to the other side of the world, with a very low fee, and the same coins can be used for other payments instantly. Without risk of double spend or any other form of threat.
Did you already compare chainblender with other similar anon transactions?
Within minutes you can anonymize any amount of coins, unlike others who take up to 24hs to do it with 1000 units. And without security holes in vcash.
Poloniex audited the code and Vcash is the only altcoin that exchange accepted with only 1 confirmation

well put!!!  
Vcash will not be FUDDed into obscurity, it does what it does better than anthing else, and when people start using it for its purpose there will be no more turning back.

fudders are only here after they pump and dump Vcash hoping to buy back in cheaper..

Props to Vcash devs on their implementation of zeroledger.

Nice work Vcash team

Cant wait for john and xcore to release all these features in a mobile format on google play.  Once i can show friends vcash with quick dowloads and instant respends i think ill finally be able to show them what crypto is useful for.

I hadn't thought of that. It would be much easier to demonstrate the pure utility of Vcash as decentralized money in such a practical manner. Knowingly that Vcash can scale for mass adoption and is the very definition of money. It would break barriers to aid non-techies understanding digital/virtual cash and the concepts behind it. Definitely looking forward to the Vcash mobile apps.

The whole Vcash project seems to be coming along very nicely, but is being completely ignored by the market.
Ok I admit that I bought at the peak, but I am holding as it seems that the coding is top notch.

Poloniex only required one confirmation for Vcash deposits, that is a pretty good sign that it is very safe.  Now Bitcoin is copying aspects of Vcash.  Well I see that Vcash has a good future ahead of it as a payment system.

Best coin out right now IMO. Loaded up a few incentive nodes and just letting them cruise along.

Completely agree. These are precisely my thoughts as well. And considering Vcashs tech I don't blame ya I bought my share of peaks haha. w/ Vcash engineered for long-term stability I have zerodoubt   Vcash in the future will be a success.    

Best coin out right now IMO. Loaded up a few incentive nodes and just letting them cruise along.

Speaking of node incentives.. Vcash node incentives collateral cost is priced ~$770-$800 USD atm. Not bad when compared to DASH masternode costing ~$7000 respectively.

Pro-tip: It's probably not a bad idea to pick up some collateral for Vcash node incentives. Considering XVC current monetary supply atm and by year 2018 we will be at 1% inflation (Hint: take a look at Vcash POW reward v3 here: https://github.com/john-connor/papers/blob/master/rewardv3.pdf)

For what purpose can I use XVC? 

Well buying and running an incentive node makes not much sense since price is low.

Can I buy a PS4 with VCASH? If not it has no use as a currency.

Who buys me a PS4 Uncharted 4 Pack and takes XVC?

The pizza maker in 2009 also didn't accept BTC at first. And https://www.badass.sx and https://www.safe-mail.eu is accepting XVC as payment

I will. Let me know when you have $400 worth of XVC and we can do the deal.

There is a gateway being developed so that any physical store, online store or professional can accept Vcash easily, with the value adjusted in real time according to poloniex.
I live in a country with 220 million inhabitants and we are building a very strong Vcash's community here.
It includes many business owners and professionals willing to adopt XVC as payment.
Soon will be possible to buy a ps4 or anything else in my country paying with Vcash

That's great news EmilioMann. You guys are pioneering the Vcash eco-system on multiple levels, nice job. Kudos to EmilioMann and to the rest of the community.
