Hi!

After intense research about privacy coins the last days I have to say this project really stands out! Great tech and as I have seen nice community ready to help.
Only in marketing terms, especially missing whitepaper, look of website (my opinion) and "marketing itself" there is room for improvement. I have already read that you first focus on the product and I am totally fine with that. Way better than promoting something that is not existent. But don't wait too long 

My question is if there is an approximate date when the linux wallet will be released? Really looking forward to it.

Keep going guys, you can do it!

Thanks! You can use the wallet on Linux by compiling it from Github, there is good documentation on that and jbg has written a bash script to make it as easy as possible. Just follow the instructions: https://github.com/spectrecoin/spectre You can come to Slack to the #client-support channel if you have any problems.

Hey is there a way to bootstrap so I don't have to download the chain?

[nemwanderer]

Thinking about getting involved in this coin-love the tech and the mission.

I worry about the lack of focus on marketing though-is that something that will change?

While tech comes first, marketing is critical too-I've been frustrated in other projects with a great product but no desire to spread the word and I'm hoping this one isn't similar.

Yes, it will change, I assure you.
Now, we are completing essential features of the product, then we can focus on Marketing in a professional way.
If you like this technology, take advantage of entering, just before Marketing, with a lower price.

What are the relative advantages and disadvantages versus other privacy coins?

Congratulations for the decision to be part of this community !!
Here you can compare SpectreCoin with other coins of privacity:

Thanks much, slowly building a stake.

How many devs are involved with the coin?

I've just felt the need to register in Bitcointalk to say this: The new wallet is amazing! Congratz to the dev team.

Hey is there a way to bootstrap so I don't have to download the chain?

No. It's just ~200MB so you can just let it sync, it shouldn't take too long. Note that if you use a bootstrap, that's just a different way of downloading the chain.

How many devs are involved with the coin?

Two core devs and 1 web developer, see https://altcoinwiki.org/en/SpectreCoin#Official_team

I've just felt the need to register in Bitcointalk to say this: The new wallet is amazing! Congratz to the dev team.

Thanks! What you are looking at is the old wallet though.  The new wallet, version 1.4 that comes out in February will be even cooler!   Much cooler actually.

Do any one use the Mac wallet?
I can't open the v.1.3.5 wallet on Mac.
The wallet crashed when opening.
Does anyone have the similar case?

It kept failing on my Mac El Capitan on 1.3.4 and 1.3.5, but after re-downloading for the 3rd time, I tried to open, it failed (Spectre quit unexpectedlt). But then I checked the sha256, tried to open Spectre again and it worked! Not sure why or how, but it finally did!  



Looks pretty neat too! Great job devs!  

UPDATE: After about 24 hours of trying to stake, the 1.3.5 wallet "Spectre quit unexpectedly" every 4 to 7 hours. Again many Mac users are having this issue on 1.3.5.

After chatting on Slack, @jbg advised to go back to 1.3.3 and use that as it is stable on Mac... Saving private keys and going back to 1.3.3 now...

Does anyone know how to find my Spectre wallet Private Key? Thanks.

Hello! I hear a lot about this project, all the friends say that it is promising! I want to connect with him, what do you say about it?

My friends talk too much about it and I join Xspec. It sound promissor and good profits

Go to options/debug/console. Type in "dumpprivkey Address or public key".

This will show you your private key.

It turns out it was pointless to go down to 1.3.3. The dev thought I was on working 1.3.3 before, but it turns out if a Mac user was already crashing on 1.3.4 then then he will also crash on 1.3.3. So i came back to 1.3.5 and now waiting for 1.3.6 or 1.4.

So what's wrong with Mac wallet?

The suggestion is to go back to the old version v1.3.3?

The problem is the connection problem with v1.3.3.

Is anybody here? Is the bounty company still going on?

Go back to 1.3.3 if it used to work on your Mac and 1.3.5 doesn't. Otherwise use 1.3.5 but wait for 1.3.6 or 1.4 for staking

What connection problem?

Talking myself into a large position here. Do you think we'll see verge-like returns?

Your question can be answered, if you enter to Slack and then from there to an appropriate conversation channel: (off-topic).

For Mac users:
The current version is 1.3.5 if a correction is made before the major version 1.4.0, this should be called 1.3.6 as it will only affect Mac users.

Can this coin get a little shill?! i mean, sure its the real private coin, but damn its so underrated and underrepresented.  like seriously? only 88mm cap?!
