Agreed, it is usually good to buy if others rather stay aside (and sell when others are FOMOing). XLQ for this price is a real invitation to the game and very profitable trade.

I agreed with you, but people tend to cash their crypto out to fiats for their expenses in real life during these days.
That's the fact, and we have to accept it.

I bought, and will wait. For someone who have to cash out, let they do what they wanted.

Would be careful with this project before investing further.  Team no longer gives direct answers to hard questions asked on discord.  At this point nothing is concrete and they recently let go of the community managers to reduce cost.

From what I have read the main developer already cashed out during the last bull run and has multiple sports cars including an r8, which is fine i suppose. In anycase do some solid research before jumping in assuming low price and therefore an opportunity.

You are talking plain nonsense. Maybe you did not receive a straight answer, because some things have to stay in the company like in every normal business. So next time ask a reasonable question.

Main developer has a sport car, because he worked for a German game developing company, which created Krytek engine if it says something to you. Obviously lead devs are paid good in a such companies. So stop spreading false accusations and fud. I expect a bit more constructive post from Legendary member.

I would not really assume about quality of a team (or their devotion for development) by cars they drive  Recent development update looks very promising.

is it this ann you refer too damberg?

Code:

We've fixed and updated the following items with the ALQO explorer: https://explorer.alqo.org/
1) Richlist is now showing correct values.
2) Masternodes section reporting correctly now.
3) Masternode statistics have been updated and fixed.
4) Hashrate graph changed to Difficulty graph.
5) Hashrate boxed value changed to UTC time.

P.S. Additionally, ALQO Discord Bot has been fixed.

this was the latest one on discord.

awesome! really excited for the implemention of the exchange
can you send me the source of where you got this?
also: is there a place i can find in more details what will be the advantages for ALQO holders when bitifineon launches?

It seems that you are already in Discord, this progress update was published in Announcement channel (the last post there). For more details see alqo.app

Your entitled to your opinion . All questions asked were reasonable not only by me but by others. For anyone, reading feel free to join the discord and ask any operational questions. His company with his friend was more than 2 years ago and it has been calculated the amount he made which could not afford him the lifestyle or the R8 bought in 2018. ALQO did that for him which is fine as I said before.  

Your obviously new in this space but the projects is starting to show red flags similar to other projects. I got rid of 50% of my ALQO bag and have the other 50% just incase they do deliver. Obviously it is in my best interest for it to succeed.  But I will say what I have observed for the benefit of others.

All, I am saying is people do not be sheeps.  Just DYOR thats all and ask questions.

Wont be following up on this. Will check back closer to the end of Q1. Enjoy the rest of your day

What happened with 4.2 wallets?

What happened with 4.2 wallets?

People reported some minor problems so they reverted it. Was not a mandatory update and not even announced officially so it did not affect many people.
Should not have been released in the first place.

From Discord:
@everyone We have removed the latest iteration of the QT wallet. If you upgraded, please revert to v4.1. Our apologies for any inconvenience.

[dtpman83]

There are some nice news/updates on the Discord channel in the announcement section for everyone who missed it.

I recommend anybody to read the whole announcements, ALQO team has made very important decisions to succeed with Bitfineon.

Would be best to share them on all relevant channels and I would say that bitcointalk is part of the relevant channels!

okay. Copied the recent three announcements from Discord see below:

1. Announcement on 30.01.2019
@everyone
Update: ALQO & Bitfineon Q1 2019

I begin this announcement by thanking the ALQO community for their patience while we build out our roadmap during this bear market, a time when anxiety can run high & sentiment can seem overly negative. Many projects will not make it out of this market intact & that is simply a sad reality in an industry such as crypto. Having said that, my trip to Germany has been very productive - I've been here almost 3 weeks. If you've been active in the #general chat channel, you may have noticed several discussions which Kevin & I took part in that gave details as to the work we were focused on during my time in Germany. I believe it is easier to work intensely while being physically present with your team & that an increased sense of focus & determination is fostered by close daily interaction. That has been the case with this trip. We have focused on Bitfineon development, ALQO 2.0 codebase (named: POLARIS), business operations maintenance, & partnerships.

Many speculated the purpose of my trip was to launch Bitfineon, & while that is a plausible assumption, you can see the scope is much larger. ALQO's ecosystem is complex, & to foster long-term viability, we need a wholistic approach predicated on a unique set of features which can only be found in building a new codebase in POLARIS. Many of the unique features & services that Bitfineon will offer will make use of POLARIS, and it's simply impossible to ignore its requirement for a successful launch provided the increased scope. Originally, we believed the Bitcoin Core code, which ALQO currently is built-on, would be sufficient; it simply is not - this realization was made several months ago, and the codebase planning began in earnest. We understand the complexity of the undertaking may bring scrutiny, but I can assure you Polaris will bring much needed innovation to ALQO & further delineate our project from the myriad of alt-coins presently available.
@everyone  
POLARIS will enable:

1) POLARIS will empower the Easy-ICO, STO platforms being built on Bitfineon. It will allow us to issue prebuilt smart contract-like templates (via GAVEL to allow projects to launch fully compliant & error-free smart contracts for the purpose of accepting payments for their capital raise purpose. These can then be launch directly on Bitfineon.

2) POLARIS will allow us to create feature rich connectivity between Bitfineon & Liberio, such as in-wallet trading directly from Liberio on Bitfineon via our AUCTIONS platform. Settlement of auction payments will be handled via a discreet pre-built escrow smart contract developed for POLARIS.

3) POLARIS will enable a unique feature called Minimal Viable Chain (MVC). This feature will allow us to run Liberio on platform-agnostic devices where resources are limited, eliminating the need for complete copies of the chain to be present to process transactions.

4) POLARIS' highlighted feature is the GALE protocol, which is a fundamental departure from Bitcoin's codebase & its original input-output Nakamoto record-keeping structure (UTXO). On-chain operations will no longer consist of a string of simple inputs & outputs, but of fungible, cohesive & fluid-like account balance credits.

All POLARIS' features will be detailed in the upcoming release of the POLARIS lite-paper, which will be released in the next several days.
@everyone  
Bitfineon Launch

Where does the new chain development leave the release of Bitfineon? It's a valid question, since it seems that many projects are launching exchanges & claiming it to be the next best thing - we are focused on building out tech that will validate this claim. Bitfineon CANNOT simply be another exchange, there are too many. It needs to have significant product identifiers & differentiators, & we have several, one of which is NEUTRINO (our proprietary GPU based matching engine, capable 60mn-plus tx/ps). And, POLARIS will enable a whole slew of features that competitors will be unable to copy. In addition, unique products such as ARENA - a social trading HUB based on competitive gamification elements found in many eSport competition formats but applied to trading - we believe will increase user adoption & bring significant value to the Bitfineon platform. Lastly, the BETA UI is completed, & backend testing is ongoing, however we need to complete the codebase before a launch is made. It is a possibility we may open registrations for Bitfineon before the codebase is completed, but currently we're not providing a timeline for this possibility. We hope you understand, & we sincerely share in your anticipation for the release of Bitfineon.

We hope you will continue with us in this journey & are able to see the value we're determined to build with ALQO. My goal since accepting the role of CEO in July of last year was to help Kevin build a strong product-line, powered by innovation, which would make for a resilient brand in ALQO for years to come.

This is a very inspiring announcement. Such a pity the coin price is tanking.
By the way, which is currently the best and more profitable way to stake ALQO? Simple staking or masternode staking?
