[ANN][VOT]: VoteCoin - a new era of anonymous crypto democracy

[pinball_wizard]

Is there a dev again??

[tpd09]

Yes project is active. They works hard. They have discord.

It has been little over 2 weeks from the end of the ICO. We spent some time trying to get VOT to exchanges, some time recruiting more work force and now we have finally jumped on development. We collected only fraction of the necessary funds during ICO and we did NOT reach our milestone for GUI Wallet. But we want to continue on this project, since we are convinced that the idea of using VoteCoin for public voting, crowd funding and opinion surveys has big potential. Unfortunately due to lack in financing, things may go little bit slower.

We agree with your suggestions that our top priority should be VoteCoin GUI Wallet now.

There are several possible ways to go:

1) The Quick way - we can fork or extend some existing software, such as https://github.com/zencashio/eleos and release it as VOT Wallet. We're not willing to go this way, since such wallet brings no new features to VoteCoin. We prefer to focus on developing our own software. But if there is a community member who wants to try this, we will surely support that effort by providing links from our website to such fork.

2) The Satisfactory way - we can develop a solution to provide some sort of GUI on top of the text-mode wallet. Technically, you would still need to run the text-mode wallet as you do it now, and at the same time you would be able to access the most common features through your web browser, which would communicate with the textmode wallet. This way we could create appealing GUI wallet in a reasonable time, but this would be a bit uncomfortable and unprofessional. On the other hand, the code implemented for this solution could be mostly reused for our final GUI wallet too, so we may be able to do this within the next few weeks.

3) The Best way - we prefer to continue developing VoteCoin GUI wallet with all the features we want (especially the voting) in Electron, or similar multi-platform framework. Our dev team estimates that this will take few months to be completed and properly tested. We hope to provide such wallet in first quarter of 2018.

Made just swing wallet, like ZEN have, without any special features.
Go at least to few exchanges, it's totally crazy what you still have only 1 exchange and it added VOT by himself.

And after that develop GUI wallet with all the features.

Otherwise by the time you'll release the wallet it will not help VOT to became alive.

We tend to disagree. Listings on exchanges do not ensure whether the coin is alive or dead. Don't get us wrong, we would like VOT to be listed on as many exchanges as possible. We did our best to get VOT listed at several exchanges (small and big ones). But please understand that it is not our decision not to be listed, it relies solely on exchange decision which coin they list! Show us other coins that started from scratch, are 1 month old and already have listings on major exchanges.

For example look what happened to Bitcoinz. After listing on C-cex price went down from 150 sat to 11 sat. This shows, that listing on multiple exchanges will not help coin to grow. What will help to grow value of the coin is finished product which users will use. Once we have finished product, people will start using it, creating demand for VOT and this is the time when exchanges will start listing VOT. To be honest, without working product we seriously doubt any major exchange would list VOT.

And we are working hard to have our product (wallet with voting feature) finished as soon as possible.

Totally agree what first of all success will be provided by working product. Especially having such a good idea and a pro dev, we will see something truly worthwhile.
I'm ready to admit that the tactic of expectation is one of the most effective, it works great when there is a certain mass of people waiting for the product, and my idea was only to draw more attention to the project through a simple working wallet, some small exchanges, provide some news here and on twitter how development is going.

It's too early to talk about serious exchanges, and worthless to try get there for money, when it can be done for free, having a decent product and a large community.

Wish you all the best.

well said! Thanks man  

BTW - we are still awaiting any sort of action from yobit. Still no answer to our support ticket and Yobicode still active in our account.

is this project still active? do they have a discord?

https://discord.gg/Xbz2egM

you can find all importat information in the first post of this thread.

I totally don't get why many worry about exchange listing. VOT is less than 2 month old coin (And already listed by Tradesatoshi by they own wish). Good code can't been made in few hours-days. It's needed some weeks-month to do various tests and make really quality product. Just little  bit more patience

And we are working hard to have our product (wallet with voting feature) finished as soon as possible.

You cannot go to the moon after product will done if you dont do any advertising and strong dialog with the community while development.
As advertising I meen an announcement your development here on bittalk step by step. And only invoke to be patient dont build it!

There are many perspective coins where no final product at this moment but they have strong community support because devs show their gradual steps how coin will be evolve. Look at iEx.ec (RLC). Devs annonce working product only at 2018 but coin is on head exchanges traded by 8000sats.
 
I read news about coins that have(will have) vote features really often. Some of them on Ether by the way. VoteCoin idea is actual now and VOT can get lost among them without strong and huge community. And how to build it I described early.

I see devs are professionals and belive VOT will be polular coin and service.

[Gaffary]

Good day, dear developers! Take me in your team, I will promote and advertising VOT. That would be constantly stir the interest of the community that people would be constantly talking about us. Woo I have the access to famous Russian bloggers who can tell you about the coin. If interested write to dolgodorogo@gmail.com

No problem i think. You can mine at http://vot.nibirupool.com and have perfect mining experience. All we waiting when devels fix problems with pool.
PS: You can use ssl connection with claymore for better privacy. (and fee )

Hi, I edit my (vot.bat) file, if someone want do the same only check this 3 parameters, just right click over "vot.bat" and edit file...

Code:

if "%1" == "status" (
   votecoin-cli z_getoperationresult
   votecoin-cli getinfo
   goto exit
)


if "%1" == "totals" (
   votecoin-cli z_gettotalbalance
   votecoin-cli listaddressgroupings
   goto exit
)

if "%1" == "key" (
   votecoin-cli dumpprivkey %2  
   goto exit
)


:help

   echo ""
   echo "Helper script to make VoteCoin operations easier"
   echo "Supported syntax:"
   echo ""
   echo "   $0 addr"
   echo "   $0 zaddr"
   echo "   $0 send FROM TO AMOUNT"
   echo "   $0 status"
   echo "   $0 totals"
   echo "   $0 key WALLET"
   goto exit

:exit

Nou you can "remember" your wallet address with "vot.bat totals" and get more info with "vot.bat status"

Also you can print Privkey with "vot.bat key WALLETADDRESS", you need too use your WalletAddress here...

enjoy it.

The official pool had a problem with VoteCoin process, there was an unexpected segmentation fault.
We've restarted it, and it's loading for some time now. We estimate it will be online in 30 minutes.
Please be patiend, and use some different pool in the mean time, list of pools is at the website
and also in the first post of this thread.
