[XSPEC] Spectrecoin | Untraceable Tx | Ring Signatures | Tor Integration

[Gandalf86]

Hello,

This Doesn't Look Safe...The subject and website looks very ugly. Please change them.

The pictures are very bad.

Do not forget to add video.

A bit more quality work ..

I would appreciate constructive criticism and ideas but just saying something is wrong / ugly without having any input about how to improve and why it's ugly is not helpful. Why does it not look safe? What does that mean? We are not web designers and video producers so this will come but the tech will come first and if the budget allows we may hire someone to do a new website etc.

Exactly what I just wanted to reply! Do what you're good at. Cosmetics should be secondary and can come later. What matters are the inner values!

For the technically minded, here is an update re. the Windows build: There is an issue with ICU dependency required for Qt WebKit. For some reason the Qt configuration script doesn't see custom ICU libs and we are trying to figure out why. Pre-build ICU libs are shared and must be bundled with an app and this is why we need custom (static) ICU build for both x86 and x86_64 architectures to get a standalone spectrecoin.exe. If this is not achievable we will build a proper Windows install package like most other commercial Windows software. We will get this fixed. If anyone have any ideas you are welcome to comment.

For the technically minded, here is an update re. the Windows build:

Sorry if this isnt much of a great help but why dont you guys stick to linux and the android app wallet  your working on .Seems to me the people your targeting the coin at will have linux already installed due  to security .Linux is alot easier to work with form a programming point of view .Also tails would be a great team to work with.If you can get a spectre wallet on the  tails soemhow   it would make the coin 10 -100 times more valuable.  Any that why rant over for a big investor who has 150 dollar invested in the coin  .

Also feel free to send spectre coin my way if any if these idea hit it big

I agree that Linux might be the preferred option for many but we have to have working Windows wallets as the vast majority of 'normal' users will run Windows and it would limit the use of Spectre if we didn't offer a working Windows wallet. Integrating with Tails would be great but will have to be looked at a bit later. We have decided to solve the Windows issue and get the basic Android wallet out in the first instance.

This is the mistake in your assumption. Even most people who have high security demands use Windows nowadays. Sounds crazy, but it's true.

So, even the windows QT5
dev hired is having a problem?

You are absolutely correct. I have a lot of friends who think the world should run on Linux, but they are not the ones who will be involved with any sort of mass adoption. The average person is using Windows or Android. Once the market cap grows there will be funds for other projects. Keep up the good work!

Better. The dev understands the problem, so the most important step towards a solution is done.

Feel free to read the OP before posting nonsense...
I'm sure all those illiterate migrant workers sending remittances to feed their starving families are running exotic versions of Linux.

Nice double since SDC bit the dust...
Considering the crazy bull market in Alts... this coin goes BOOM when you release more of your roadmap

Considering the crazy bull market in Alts... this coin goes BOOM when you release more of your roadmap  

Considering the crazy PRICE in Altcoins! When I started here, a market cap of 10M was considered huge. Nowadays the 38 most popular coins have a market cap of 10M+ each. Tons and tons of money going into anything that looks promising. The only problem with this project is that people don't understand it, yet. We have a market cap of 370K right now. Do your own calculations.

There would be something wrong and the wallet cant run after add a node.conf on the dir of wallet.dat...Anyone help me?

[frankkkkkkk]

My XSPEC wallet is not synchronized, and I can not get interest! I am here not to get help!

Hi, @losk22 - are you on our Slack channel? It's easier to chat. Come and join us: http://slack.spectreproject.io/

try and add these nodes to spectrecoin.conf

3bhu2bafrb7th2e5.onion:37347
gmjvobuc3rtpcxgm.onion:37347

 

I'm stuck in a block 55725. 2 connection.

Any other node to sync?

ICO price was 83 Sat. It's way overpriced now. Very bad investment!

Better. The dev understands the problem, so the most important step towards a solution is done.

The way its posted it appears there is no "QT 5 dev" hired,  but current devs wrestling with the problem.
Why posting for help here in the troll pit that both devs (and yourself) have more than a little disdain for.

btw, are you a member on slack? we could carry this over there.

It seems that the project is problematic even with wallet.
It's better not to invest it now.

The Qt5 problem is quite intricate. Qt Webkit was always designed to be built using MSVC e.g. Visual Studio. This has been tried but we haven't had any success. MinGW isn't supported. Meant to be with shared libraries not static so we need to implement a custom solution.

When can i download the new wallet?There are some problem inside now...
