Looks like XSPEC is the only logical choice now for chinese people crypto ban hammer (Integrated TOR + OBFS4)

So XSPEC is like Monero + POS + TOR? Is this correct or I did not understand it very well? If that is the case then this is a really unique coin.

After reading through this thread again, I am excited about the prospects here. I think I'll do a top up of my stash of XSPEC  Are there plans to market this coin at some point? I see that the Twitter is utilized, but maybe the right people are still unaware of the development here. Anyways, keep going team! |

Not quite. At the moment, Monero is "more" than Spectre technology-wise. Its anonymity features are more mature. You can find a comparison with Monero here: http://coinwiki.info/en/SpectreCoin#Monero |

I posted my public address for everyone to see and also said how much I bought at which price. I have nothing to hide and am completely transparent about who I am. It's really important to me that both yourself and the rest of the community do not believe this is a scam and just an ICO that no one really gave a chance. So if you need any further information you can see this 'fools' face anytime you wish. Until then, Spectrecoin is moving on with or without you.
Edit: this is a relpy to @cryptohunters deleted post.

Worried about my trust rating? I am too. Bitcointalk users ‘Lauda’ and ‘gmaxwell’ have abused their superior powers in trust system to align their views with the ‘correct views.’ In no legal system in any jurisdiction do we have a definition for what Bitcoin is, they do not have the power to tell us what it is based on the rule of law.

IMO you have a completely false understanding of privacy. The "nothing to hide" argument has been the top argument for surveillance for ages, because it implies that everyone who is left not giving up their privacy does have something to hide, thus making the use of a human right look suspicious. For this reason, it is super important to not give away your privacy in order to not make it look suspicious if someone else does. That's one of the main reasons we need anonymous currencies to begin with, so I have no idea what you are doing here?  |

OK so a few questions about staking...
My wallet says I can earn a reward in 47 days. Does that mean i have to wait that long? Like with my wallet open and running?
My weight at this time is only 100 of 6.3M. Am I wasting my time at these amounts?
Is my wallet still staking when my screen saver kicks on or screen goes to sleep from being idle?
You have to little coin to even bother staking. Unless you have 10000 coins are over your wasting your time and electricity Agreed, for that small a position the cost in electricity usage is likely higher than the income generated. Bigger size may be warranted if your conviction level merits doing so. Just to add color, my position is 1500+ coins and I am earning a few stakes a week. Now to be fair, this is a small income but it makes sense economically if you are staking multiple coins on the same PC. The staking rate for XSPEC is higher than the 5% that was claimed on the ANN discussion since some people don't stake 24/7 and some coins live on exchanges, etc. I am pleased with the coin and feel it is a total return opportunity and will hold the shares along with Monero, Deep Onion and Zencash. Privacy coins should have a bright future as governments escalate the war on cash. |

Join the slack and ask there. Its a bug with the current 1.3 wallet, they have seen it and know the workaround to it. Should be fixed in 1.4 wallet.

Hey guys
I am new to the world of crypto, however I see the potential of XSPEC and have started buying, I am hoping the price continues to drop for a while so I can get more.
I have a few questions for anyone who knows, forgive me if they have been answered already.
1. When XSPEC is more widely adopted and the stealth option in more mature with the ring signatures (as I understand the concept, I may be wrong) will XSPEC be able to rival MONERO for anonymity?
2. How does XST-STEALTH COIN compare to XSPEC, as XST also claims to use the TOR network?
3. How does the anonymity of XSPEC compare to NAV and CLOAK COIN, is it only the TOR integration that sets them apart?
I have done my best to research these things myself, but my understanding is limited.
Thanks

Really? How can they expect the mobile staking to work then? People are not going to store 1000s of dollars on a mobile device that could easily be lost or stolen. At least if they have any sense.
Even the desktop staking doesn't feel to secure. I have to manually encrypt my wallet, I wasn't prompted to or anything. Then leave it open and running? Obviously the user is incharge of their security but still, it not very newb friendly.
I'm not concerned about my electric cost, I get all I can pull for a flat rate. But thanks good to know for future reference.
I also wonder where the rest of the coins are. 7M in staking, maybe 1M on all exchanges. Still leaves half the supply just sitting out there.
Really! you can stake quietly. Of course if you have thousands, you will make use of the password. And also of course, you will have a copy of the wallet.dat file and with this recovering your thousands in case of lost device is very simple. If it were the case that you had a very large amount, well in that case you can have more than one devices with a wallet each. Leaving a device connected 24/7 is risky, if we consider that we must take risks to live every day, well what follows is obvious: you must reasonably worry about the safety of your device.The rest of the coins are in private wallets, remember the total coins were distributed, the price of each one is so low that they think it is not worth the staking. |

This is not a fault of Spectrecoin, it is inherited from Bitcoin. The current version 1.3.0 works fine, but to solve this interface problem, will soon release version 1.3.1. Your balance is secure, it just does not show. If you close and open several times it is almost certain to be fixed by itself. Your question does not bother. We want you to have a good experience here. |

1. Buy a lot of coins 2. Open the wallet 3. Deposit the coins to your wallet 4. Wait.  |

You also have to unlock the wallet for staking. Or at least I did. I still can't find my private key. Just my address.
Can you stake with with stealth? How does this affect the public viewed network weight?
Why is the staking reward higher than the 5% for some and others don't received any reward at all? Only the big dogs, with lots of xspec already, can receive staking rewards? Small guys gets nothing without taking the biggest risk(open wallet) This is seeming more and more iffy.
Seriously, where is the security layers?. Yes there is TOR and OBFS4, and eventually mature ring sig. But you don't even have a a password on the wallet without much digging. Anyone could see the info you must display when staking.
Maybe I'm just being a total newb. But this coin has to be new user friendly if it's going to compete with the big dogs. It's a secure, stealth coin, with good tech. But Tech is almost useless if most users can't figure it out. Those who have the knowhow are already using other, older coins.
We need a tutorial! Make it so easy you can't not use it!
