But still I wonder, why is the TORproject team so opposed to this project? One would think they would be interested or at least neutral...

[dvyanc]

therewill be any signature campaign for Member, or Fullmember in Future?

Waiting TORcoin in Poloniex!!

U mean slomoniex? The exchange is gone to rubbish I think.
The site is now having alot of trouble with payouts and trading with lagg.
We better get on bittrex, that site is more trustable.

Yeah, Bittrex should be our primary objective.

Torcoin is already $1.If it goes to bittrex, it would be 10x of today's price.
Can it be listed through payment of 3 btc?I think there's no other way to get listed as bittrex do not reply on Twitter to listing requests.

yes it will really rise up if ever we finally went to bittrex as we all knew this exchange really have a lots of traders and investors
who can move the value of certain project let see if dev will push it forward,.

better to go with bittrex, poloniex was good, now seems full of fake order or other bad thing, like price manipulation, sure polo has good volume but so bittrex, which is also more transparent

I just downloaded the TorCoin wallet and I must say that there seem to be no problems with it at all. No virus alerts anymore or any stuff at my end. I really hope this helps others to confirm the software is completely legit to my vision. Let's buy some Tor

currently I am prompted with a

Warning: Trouble ahead
Whoa!
Are you sure you want to go there?
https://torcoin.org/ may be risky to visit.
 
Why are you seeing this?
When we visited this site, we found it exhibited one or more risky behaviors.

 in my mcAfee siteadvisor. Is this normal? I have not tried downloading again  but I'll try later tonight once my internet signal becomes stable.

I'm in contact with McAfee and yesterday they submitted Torcoin to their labs
So as soon as they review the code, the website will be whitelisted

You can see my convo here:
https://community.mcafee.com/thread/103511

Also notice we're now at 16 false positives, we were at 20 previously.

Most important one is currently Avast
Avast has taken down their alert on Torcoin

Thanks. I am sure this will also be resolved like what happened to other antivirus reports against Torcoin. My browser prevents me to download the .exe file as well jfyi at the moment also because mcafee web alert is not allowing me unless I whitelisted it. I will be waiting for the results until then.
 PS. Also sent the email to get TOR listed in bittrex. Goodluck to us

Yeah, McAfee will be in good company soon as we have ESET, Bitdefender and Avast whitelisting Torcoin.

I have sent a false positive to most antiviruses but the big ones we're waiting except for McAfee are AVG and Avira.

From the big ones it's nice to note that Malwarebytes never scanned Torcoin as malicious at all.

A reply from Kaspersky!

TORcoin uses many nodes to protect its user's privacy. When the virus blockers cannot figure out what this nodes are, they take it as a virus. Glad to see that TORcoin's reputation is being cleared up, great job iluvbitcoins!

I am spending quite some time lately with Torcoin.

I believe with future development of the Windows wallet, the community is going to respond to massively.

Torcoin is lucky to have you as their marketing manager. Most manager wont do as much work as you do to keep the project clean. They will just leave the blame to the devs and say that they are only in the marketing area. I am now sure that this coin does have a nice community that will support them.

Well that is really good investment for the investors Torcoin really have a great potential 1$ is noto bad at all but really a good sign we also want to this to be listed in many exchanger and trading site for good long term investment.

Getting on Bittrex would probably double the price, so Torcoin is a good investment right now 

[emezh10]

I guess torcoin can be a really good investment for many investor right now we know that 1torcoin is 1$ so we know that the coin have a great potential in growing a price right now so 1$ is not bad at all so we can buy a lot of volume of torcoin a can be great in a long term invetment i guess.

I'm a certified Network Engineer with a little over 10 years experience. Most recently I worked for a very large ISP in their core engineering department. I'm also kind of a nerd, so in my free time I like to investigate how things work, especially if they are network related.
 
I have experience with Tor and anonymous distributions like Tails. My primary interest at this point is to find out how secure TorCoin really is. If you are familiar with anonymity, then you should be aware that leaking network data on the clear net (the regular internet) is a big concern. Leaking any data related to you or the app you're trying to conceal will give you away.
 
To test, I configured a Windows 10 Virtual Machine and setup Wireshark. After installing and launching TorCoin, I performed a series of packet captures. For the sake of being brief, I discovered that most of the claims made by TorCoin are false. TorCoin does NOT integrate with The Tor Network. It does NOT keep your usage private.  
 
Here are just a couple things that I found!

* Clear public NON-Tor DNS traffic asking for http://seed.torcoincoin.com
* Clear public IRC traffic to irc.lfnet.org and irc.smutfairy.com
* Does NOT connect to The Tor Network!
* Does NOT keep your use of the coin anonymous!
* Nodes do NOT help The Tor Network.
 
Here is a screenshot of the IRC traffic:

 
You can download the Wireshark packet captures here so that you can see for yourself:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/48nhs90ia6rosop/AACTChe_153XeFptUUGtSRsGa?dl=0
 
BitCoinTalk member TheTorCoin makes these FALSE claims on his thread:
 

"Torcoin is a cryptocurrency similar to Bitcoin featuring numerous improvements and innovations, such as full integration with the TOR network, stealth sending technology, and complete anonymity."
 
"There is never any need to 'mix' or 'anonymize' your TorCoins - they are anonymous by default. TOR is fully integrated with TorCoin, which means that a snoop or attacker watching your internet connection will not know if you are using TorCoin - and other TorCoin users cannot determine the physical location of your Torcoin node."
 
"Completely Untraceable. No one will ever know you are running a TorCoin node - your real IP is never broadcast to the network because TorCoin runs over Tor."
 

TorCoin communicates with other nodes over the regular internet. Your IP address can be seen by everyone! I was able to do a reverse lookup on a node and found a user on Comcast. His claims are misleading at best. I personally feel the creator of this coin has done this intentionally. It is my educated opinion that you avoid this cryptocurrency.

I was informed that none of the TorCoin clients currently in use by people have any Tor integration. They do not contribute to the Tor network and they do not connect to Tor. The developers have informed me that I need to download and compile the source code from the "Tor" branch on github.

I am currently unable to compile the source code with the instructions found in the ReadMe file. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This is the output that I receive. So far what I have witnessed is NO Tor functionality on any client, and the Linux client does not work.

You are right because I am here on this forum for some time and done work with few others but no one giving any details and time for project @iluvbitcoins is doing really great work for them

Most important one is currently Avast
Avast has taken down their alert on Torcoin  

First, this is how you people should respond to people who make valid arguments if you want them to shut up. You take action and prove them wrong. You don't cry FUD or tell them to "install linux or an emulator if you are a pussy".  

Second, still the windows & mac wallets don't use the TOR network (let alone run a TOR node). So, this is still a bullshit coin that doesn't do what it claims to do.

I just cannot but add words to the level of commitment you have showed to this project over the days it has been in existence couple with you real time response to curiosities raised and your level of diplomacy which is a plus for this project and hope that your effort is adequately rewarded by the time this will be reaching its proposed height in the crypto space.
