Rebranded to Duality Blockchain Solutions

[rapazev]

i like the camel... 
anyway, i agree with the rebrand, unfortunatelly the name cant be linked to silkroad so lets move on with this. i pretty sure the team will brings us something as good as the camel.

[HasherMe]

Is the focus of the coin going to change or is it just a name change?  Either way, I am for the name change.  Buying more silk right now.  Glad to see you are not afraid of change.

The entire focus and direction in terms of the business carried out by the team and company behind the the two blockchains will change, yes.

Name change, logo change, company name change and domain/website changes.

Team remains, community remains, no hard fork for the coins and markets remain.

Hi and thanks for the help. I downloaded the .conf file from the link you provided and deleted my existing one and replaced it with the one you provided but still have majority of my coins stuck in "Staking" and nothing I try can get them into spendable. I changed the reserved amount to the amount stuck and it made no difference either and I tried the reserve amount at 0000 and still stuck. I am not sure what to do or where to go from here. Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks very much for your help. I found my .conf file but I have no idea how to change it? when I click it, it comes up with windows cant read this file. I also dont know how to create a text file. Any help would be appreciated.

Updated the Silkcoin folder up to block 1758147 for easy sync

How to use instructions at the end of this post

Also added separately silkcoin.conf
download just that if you're synced and put it in your Silkcoin folder
it contains staking=0 line as well cause it's no point in staking the old coin anyway

Set your reserve amount to all 9's (999999999)  that's the amount you are telling the wallet to KEEP from staking.  Not sure if if will help release the coins in staking but it may.

Just thought of something else you can try if nothing else works.  You could try exporting the private keys from your current wallet and the importing them into a new wallet.  I’ve done that for many other coin wallets in the past which had gotten screwed up.  To do it;

With you current wallet running and unlocked, go to Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab.

For each of your addresses, enter
dumpprivkey <silkcoin address>

Copy and paste each of the keys it responds with to notepad
Save the file when you have dumped all your addresses, but leave it open.

Exit (close) the wallet
Go to your Slikcoin data directory
Rename the existing wallet.dat file to something like orig_wallet.dat (so you have a copy)

Restart the SilkCoin wallet (it will create a new wallet)
When it shows it is synced, go back to the console (Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab)

Now using the list of keys you saved in the notepad file, ether the following command for each private key you have;

importprivkey <private key from list> “you can include a label in quotes if you want”


I'm posting this during my commute to the day job so the commands are from memory, I think I got them right, but if anyone sees an error, please chime in with the correction

Well I am at a complete loss. I have been at this crap for days now and my coins are still stuck in staking and I cannot move them. Where do we go from here.

The entire focus and direction in terms of the business carried out by the team and company behind the the two blockchains will change, yes.

In what ways?

The wording of that poll is so skewed that you may as well not bother with it by the way. With you on the rebrand though.

[nzminer]

Please explain why the direction would need to change due to a rebrand?

The rebranding has to happen because of the direction change. Not the other way around.

If we want to exist and evolve in the business world and forge partnerships, then the branding and name has to change.

OK well that makes a bit more sense.

Ive voted yes to a rebrand although ill seriously miss the original silk name and the camel etc.
It would be a shame to see us loose big partnerships for the sake of a name.

Which big partnerships are at risk?

[SilkNetwork]

Everything will be announced in due time.

[Peterjohn42]

Everything will be announced in due time.

Well there is a poll so to decide would need to know the reason for the name change.  Is it Microsoft azure? I hear that I'd big for coins and Microsoft doesn't like drugs like this coin currently is promoting.

The reasons are stated above the poll as to why we are rebranding.

Microsoft Partnerships for Azure is minor and something we already have in the works, this is just a bit of code and some communication.

We never promoted drugs, so I am unsure why you have stated that.....

And how did you come up with the "promoting" thing
I assume that you think that all Mary's are Virgin Mary as well just because of their name
Sorry for being an as...hole here

[ttoroie]

Voted yes as well and I'll miss those too
But I'm backing up this team 100% because of their spirit and goodwill

What does your silk.conf file look like (without the rpcuser/rpcpassword)?  You should add these lines:
staking=0
stakegen=0
reservebalance=100000000

If that doesn't work, please send me a PM.

[ttoroie]

You should add these lines:
staking=0
stakegen=0
reservebalance=100000000

Updated the silkcoin.conf file as well
Thanks

[Bitcoinasourus]

How do i get my silk from the old chain to weaver? I sent a small test transaction before i moved it all, and the test trans got lost.

How do i get my silk from the old chain to weaver? I sent a small test transaction before i moved it all, and the test trans got lost.

It's not lost
All transactions are done manually by Mathew for safety reasons

If Silkcoins are picked up on the blockchain, then this means that they've arrived safely. The push to the Silk Network site is still a manual process, it will be visible once Matthew makes the push. A little bit of patience is necessary

I assume by

silk from the old chain

you meant silkcoin (yeah I know it's a bit confusing)
and what happened with the rest of the coins you moved?


PS: What happened Bitcoinasourus?

You were lost for a while
