Apologies for the lapse in updates - its been a quiet week, and I've been busy working at my daygig. Here's dev news!
- Andy (that's CHANCOIN) is working on getting us onto Cryptopia. He has been in contact with other exchanges as well, not 100% sure on which ones so I'll leave it there. Also, vote for us on C-Cex -
https://c-cex.com/?id=vote. - Andy offers a 5 chan bounty on each vote
- Meta is still on vacation - he's been quiet so I trust he's been enjoying himself, as he should be. Good.
- Leeves is working on BLACKJACK! And some other things. But BLACKJACK!
- Leeves and Edgar are also working on finishing the roadmap, which we will put on bitcointalk and our site, and everywhere else we can think of.
- The site is changing - I'm going to do the work tonight, but nameserver switch means the new site might not propagate until tomorrow.
- I'm also working more on the user portal, wallet, developer API etc proof of concept.
- Edgar is inspiring some amazing memes.
- I plan on fleshing out our trello board with a ton of stuff tonight, if I can get to it. The link to that should be on the website. If you can't find it, just ping me.

---------------------
- We discussed tentative plans for completing the coin burn necessary to bring us to 20% premine, as well as tentative plans for setting up a sort of 'escrow fund' which is overseen by dev team members plus community stakeholders, in order to fund future projects - this is still very vague talk, but the upshot is everyone on the team agrees we want to be able to keep the goodwill of the community while engaging new investors, rewarding community contributors and making sure that this project benefits the anons it was built by and for (thats you slags, btw).
- Theres a lot more work that needs to be done - I'm working on the first draft of a development roadmap right now. That's going to take some time, I'm afraid, but I hope to present a draft to the dev team by the end of the weekend. At the end of the day we want to improve the ecosystem, make it easier for anons to get started developing for chancoin, and make the currency more attractive.
- I'll be distributing coins for the competition shortly.
Please ping me if you have any additional questions - I'll be up for a little bit working.

http://plaza.oneWe'll, we've already announced the winner of the logo contest - @Kaleidoscope! Her green >implying coin was definitely the favorite of the dev teaml, although there were a lot of entries we really dug. Thanks to everyone who took the time to put something together - to those who stole stock photos or cribbed something from some random site - don't expect any coins.
I'll be distributing rewards tonight, they'll probably take a bit to come through because of the SLOW BLOCKCHAIN
On to the results of our dev meeting today:
- We've decided to implement a Digishield-type gravity-well equation to readjust difficulty on the blockchain. See here for a starting point if you're interested in researching WTF that means:
http://cryptocurrency.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Gravity_Wave Basically, this should mitigate the effects of difficulty fluctuations. Since Metagame is the one implementing this and he's on vacation for the next week and change, the dev team will be relentlessly renting hash power in the meantime to keep the blockchain moving smoothly. I encourage anyone who is mining to do so via coinminers.net pool.
- We also discussed the roadmap, the various interests and strengths of the dev team members' skill sets and how we'll be incentivizing work among the dev team by redistributing our premine as work proceeds.
- We discussed tentative plans for completing the coin burn necessary to bring us under 20% premine, as well as tentative plans for setting up a sort of 'escrow fund' which is overseen by dev team members plus community stakeholders, in order to fund future projects - this is still very vague talk, but the upshot is everyone on the team agrees we want to be able to keep the goodwill of the community while engaging new investors, rewarding community contributors and making sure that this project benefits the anons it was built by and for (thats you guys, btw).
- Theres a lot more work that needs to be done - I'm working on the first draft of a development roadmap right now.

Good morning - the posting is off to a roaring start today (or tonight for most of you in Yurop or Dingoland). I've got some meatspace (real world) things happening today but here's the skinny on whats happening:
- CHANCOIN returns home from vacation! Not that it will help to dispell the myth that we are the same person.
- The dev team has a conference sometime this evening (July 8, evening US time, July 9 AM AUS) - we're going to discuss a lot of things, too many to list here, but the upshot should be efficiency gains for the team and clarification on a few questions we need answered to move forward with some of our projects.
- I spent last night getting a bunch of cloud infrastructure set up for the project. We've managed to get a lot of cool projects online (dice, discord bot, website) but we have yet to consolidate our infrastructure, so hopefully this will allow us to do so - to the extent that the other team members wish to do so at present.
- Meeting topics _will include_ the issues with blockchain speed, so don't worry.
