@SysFailure and @BitcoinFX, you talk with so much confidence and you sound convincing. But I won't blindly take what you have said until I hear from @TheTorCoin.

That being said, it looks you work for the TOR network or you have been tasked by them to come on here (this thread) and demean TOR Coin.
My suggestion is this; Both parties settle your differences, then collaborate and let's make this work.
What do you say??

I do not work for Tor. I'm not asking you to blindly take what I say. I provided actual evidence, you can even download the wireshark packet captures that I linked. Even better, you can do your own packet captures. TorCoin does NOT connect to the tor network. It's plain as day.

Don't bother mate. These poor bag holders are in denial. Whatever you say, regardless of proof, they won't believe you...

Do NOT download or run torcoin-qt.exe - the executable is confirmed to contain a wallet.dat stealing trojan.

I'll also confirm that I do not work for the Tor Project Inc.,

I do have extensive long-term experience of hosting Tor Relays and Tor Exit Nodes ... also run by many other volunteers all around the world.

You can easily test for yourself that the Torcoin v1.0.0.0 wallet does not automatically run over Tor, as otherwise claimed in the OP.

If you are running the Torcoin wallet go to: Help > Debug window > console and type: getpeerinfo

This will show a list of your connected peers IP addresses. If the coin was connected over Tor then the majority of IPs would either be generated .onion addresses or IP's of actual Tor Exit nodes. You will not be able to match the IP addresses that your node is connected to with actual running Tor nodes : https://atlas.torproject.org/ (unless someone has configured a node to run via Tor for themselves).

No one should willingly associate themselves with a project that is making misleading and 'false' claims from the get-go. Especially with regards to anonymity and internet privacy!

I love how you totally avoided the posts by @SysFailure and @BitcoinFX Another thing I love about you is that everytime torcoin has a tiny spike you mention it. But you fail to mention the new all times lows that occur every 2-3 days, like for example today. Wonder how long it will take until this coin reaches 1 satoshi?

There seems to be some confusion about Tor integration.

Yes, TorCoin DOES create a full TOR node.  You simply need to download from the TOR branch on our github, not the main branch >>
https://github.com/TorCoinProject/torcoin/tree/tor

The main branch does not create a full TOR node.  I could of course change that, and maybe I should, but running Tor nodes is illegal in some countries, so I wanted to allow users the option.

In future releases, there will simply be a check-box in the Windows and MACOS wallets giving you the option to run a TOR node or not, in order to comply with local laws.

All of the people spreading FUD about Tor simply didn't read our docs at all, and were too lazy to look through the github - because TorCoin most definitely DOES CREATE TOR NODES.  Simply download from >>

TorCoin will be listed on several more exchanges this week also :-)

It's not FUD. You clearly stated on the front page that it does one thing. I download the windows client and find my information is leaking everywhere. It does not work as you described.

So which version gets downloaded when you click "Download for Windows" or "Download for Mac" on the website?

@thetorcoin

Want to send a few TOR my way into my windows paper wallet so I can test the privatization of the nodes? I want to make sure that your claims are accurate, and defend you if the other person is lying.

The Windows and MACOS wallets don't integrate with TOR yet - but they will soon.  For now, it's just the linux version.  We have active devs working to create a switch that will enable users to turn Tor on/off when using the Windows and MacOS wallets, which enables them to comply with laws in their country or bypass Tor blockages (ie, in China)

Windows and MacOS are a nightmare for compatibility and development, as anyone in the industry knows. Getting them to integrate with TOR has not been easy, but it's under active development, along with an Android wallet.

The linux version does indeed create a Tor node, despite the FUD >> https://github.com/TorCoinProject/torcoin/tree/tor

A windows paper wallet definitely cannot create a Tor node. It's a paper wallet :-)

Happy to send a few TOR your way if you want to test the linux version under the TOR branch though.

Thanks! Hopefully I can clear up these accusations. I'll use the linux version and run a few tests

thetorcoin, I am ready to run the tests when you are! I have installed the linux OS on my PC (looks pretty good tbh, might keep it), and am awaiting the TOR

I'm running the TOR signature, but I'm far from one of these bagholders that you're talking about. I did see in previous messages that the linux wallet allows for a "stealth" mode. I looked for it on my Mac wallet, but didn't see the option.

Can you provide a projected timeline for when the PC/Mac versions will be available? Are we weeks away? Months?

Additionally, you may want to update the website and top post to inform anyone viewing the coin that "stealth" modes for PC/Mac are in the pipeline. It's better to stay transparent than anything.

I agree, transparency is the key

'Stealth sending' works fine in the PC/MAC versions.  Just not TOR integration - yet.

First on the list is Android wallet, then TOR integration for the Windows  / MacOS wallets.  I would estimate under 1 month, probably closer to 2 weeks.

Great! I sent you some TOR for testing. Make sure you download the linux version from the TOR branch on our github, not the main branch

Sure, will get to testing. Maybe I'll earn another bounty if I do a good job 

[thetorcoin]

I updated the website under 'Latest Releases' . Maybe it wasn't clear enough before

So just to be clear. I'll download the torcoin tor node that you linked into linux. Then take some screenshots to show it is working. Let's see how it goes!
