The only thing I want to know is how you did not know a month ago (at the beginning of ICO) that something which takes 6 months to code was not going to be ready in a month.

Focus was shifted from having a fully implemented Argon2d GPU miner to a workable GPU solution that is fair to all parties. It was a simple error in judgement, when you are very close to your goals you want to go for it. During coding it became apparent that certain elemenst regarding fast verify were missing. As MCDev pointed out, to prevent a too narrowed vision some triggers should've been implemented to initiate alternative scenario's. What has happened will be discussed once we are in a more calmer stage of development.

Right now we are testing as mentioned earlier. So far so good. I guess there will be an update after a good night's rest.

Argon2d CPU mining has begun on the test network.

dDNS has an issue to rectify and Stormnode payments need a change and test.

The development team are working around the clock and are ensuring the software works and that peoples investments are protected.

The same as Silk(SLK) and its launch, DarkSilk will have 10000 blocks at the beginning of the chain that give no block reward (0DSLK).

This gives Silk Network the time to setup dnsseeders, full nodes, add checkpoints, forward the code to bittrex and have a secured network.

At the point the above is done, the codebase will be released publicly.

nice!
Any exchange to list it after launch? Roll Eyes i will make my node, but i need to pay my bills too  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I also can confirm that tests are currently running

6 months to code?

The team has been working on this project for 2 years.

Development of software causes new issues as functions are added/changed, not to mention test time.

Like ALL development, hurdles are hit and they must be overcome.

You are incorrect. DarkSilk will launch as DarkSilk.

The rebranding will happen across the board simultaneously.

Paperwork and the announcement of everything will happen well before any rebranding of wallets happen.

Like ALL development, hurdles are hit and they must be overcome.
Argon2d has no fast-verify code and it will take between 3-6 months to get it implemented as we need to write it from scratch.

Here is where he didnt say 2-3 months, said 3-6 months..

  In either case where a project was supposed to be released a month after the ico, one might think that this issue of writing this from scratch, and the non-existance of fast-verify would have been known long before we opened our wallets up.  

  This project promised transparency, accountibility, a sense of community, and a team of dedicated developers to release a asset backed security by todays date.   ANY question relating to the interests of the ico holders should be answered in a timely fashion, especially in times of failure, or witholding key information that would negatively affect the securities you sell at the weaver.  

    You cannot have one foot into corporate and one foot out into crypto..  either both feet in or stay decentralized kids so accountibility is important here.. if it wasn't me and many others would not have invested into athe silk network ltd. Public offering via the weaver.

  As funds were held in escrow until release (as i read) this should not be an issue in refunding investments. I couod see a week or two or a month even, but well into next year with no certain date,  with a team falling apart, and an unknown name or title for the project, in the midst of a corporate dissolution and new incorporation... is completely and absolutely unacceptable.   You guys stepped up to the big boys plate, so please act like adults and the crypto geniuses you claim to be, both in coding and business.  Would be appreciated.  
   Good luck on the home stretch and take these words into serious consideration.
  

Dontigua we were having an ICO on the development of a crypto token based system that behaves like: 1 a currency, 2 an asset. Yet they remain crypto-tokens.

The team is not falling apart, we are only dealing with blowback due to a sudden delay in release. Please refrain from being the cause of a problem that doesnt really exist.

As i said. Tokens.

You knew at the start of the ICO it wouldn't be ready. That's all I'm saying.

I still have faith, but communication and transparency is KEY.

Patient identification solutions is a massive problem in the United States. If duality can solve this issue. This could be huge. Looking forward to seeing the development move forward.

Yea I don't think anyone has processed this yet...  HUGE!!!

R.I.P. Silk Network

Long Live to the Duality Blockchain Solutions Ltd.

There's not much else to say.


   i  like how that sounds heehee, and i admit i voted against the rebranding.  

I liked the SLK name for its association, even tho it wasn't really associated at all with the Silkroad in China or the one run by Mr "wholly shit they gave him LIFE"
i liked it for its example of free market in the hands of the people by the people, and one of the first mass uses of BTC for a real market, albeit a pretty dark one, but hey guns don't kill people, people do. BTC is a tool, how we use it is up to us.

But SLK is/was different on BCT, it's a project that has come a long way (the whole story is in this thread if one reads it all), and there's no doubt that this false Silkroad Association can greatly limit the business and marketing potential of this project as a it moves forward and evolves. With it, to support the project, we ALL must evolve with it.
Speaking with someone involved with SLK a long time made me see the DRIVE and PASSION the people who support this have for it's future.
And so i must get on the bus, i must evolve my approach to the project as it is evolving as well. And i will.

I don't think i will be disappointed.   Smiley

you guys take the time you need, those 6 line updates go a long way, i know this will launch in time and we will all forget our impatience ;p

I would like to ask if someone has more than two connections in the SLK wallet. If so can someone please post more nodes?
I'm currently using ttoroie's list from one month ago but since then lots of nodes disappeared.
