The coin is alive and is going to be a big success, they are just releasing the updated windows wallet in a few days. 

[teamswipp]

Hello again, Swippsters and Swippians!

We are pleased to announce that there has been a lot of work going on since our last post. Here is a quick coverage;

Coinsmarkets
Recently, coinsmarkets finally enabled withdrawals of Swipp. However, the wallet on the exchange is down. We have contacted them about this without any results so far. If we work together and contact their support about the issue, we might be able to get it cleared up. So if you have some time over, we ask you to send them an email (support@coinsmarkets.com) and inform them about the wallet issue.

New wallet
Twiddler has completed all the work on the adaptive masternode network. Before releasing it, we have decided to release a maintenance release of the wallet that includes numerous speedups and improvements. This wallet release is not compulsory and does not create a new blockchain. When compiling and testing the Windows version, Chaozer has identified some issues with the wallet under Windows - so the binary for Windows has been slightly delayed while we work out the quirks. For everybody that has the ability, we encourage you to compile it and test it out on your own. The new release can be downloaded form the website (http://www.swippcoin.com) or via GitHub (https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/releases/tag/2.1.3).

Muntster
We are very happy to announce that SwippSwap has evolved and is scheduled to become something much broader than originally intended. The focus of the exchange has shifted slightly and it has been renamed to Muntster (http://www.muntster.com). With the current situation on the cryptocurrency scene with exchanges asking for absurd amounts for a listing, Muntster will instead help coin communities with financing by actually sharing parts of the collected trade fees with said community. Additionally, XMCC and Swipp masternodes will get rewarded with some of the collected trade fees. Please read more on the promotional site for Muntster (http://www.muntster.com).

Website
We have updated the website (http://www.swippcoin.com) and made some slight changes to the roadmap.  We have also added AikaPool and ClutzyKid to the list of official mining pools.

Masternodes
We now have almost 50 masternodes on the Swipp network - which means that roughly 23% of the supply is locked up in masternodes on the network. One of our community members has also written a masternode setup guide which you can download at https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/issues/3.

Development
As always, you can follow what is happening with the code on GitHub (https://github.com/teamswipp/). We will start merging the changes for the adaptive masternode network and a lot of other interesting stuff soon. We encourage you to follow development and create some issues if you have some suggestions going forward.

That's all this time around. More news will follow once we have fixed all the issues in the Windows wallet.

Yours, team swipp

What problem is your coin yet to solve? there are so many coins out there, what is so unique about your coin?

Oh, My transaction with coinsmarket also worked, everything is fine now , keep up the good work

[teamswipp]

What problem is your coin yet to solve? there are so many coins out there, what is so unique about your coin?
 

Hello there .

Swipp is quite unique. For starters check the roadmap, http://www.swippcoin.com/#roadmap. There is also a lot of information in the history of the thread.

One of the big features we are focusing on is an adaptive masternode network which calculates scoring based on proximity. You can read more about it here, http://www.swippcoin.com/specifications#adaptive-masternode-network. Swipp will also take full advantage of it's masternode network and host services on said nodes. As of now, we have a web wallet and bounty portal planned. This will decentralize these services and make them more fault-tolerant. These services are also the reason why we are working on the adaptive network.

Swipp is not about solving any strange made-up problem (way to common with cryptocurrencies these days). What we want to do is to just create a good cryptocurrency with a good infrastructure, while improving the blockchain and the masternode system to a point where it is more than just a gimmick.

Yours, team swipp

you guys cannot even compile a mac wallet or linux one, do not have a whitepaper yet. Why would anyone take you seriously? Shitcoin

[teamswipp]

So Windows , we have to wait for the new 2.1.3? as I saw window version still 2.1.1

Yes. We have a 2.1.4 version in the pipeline with (mainly) fixes for Windows.

Yours, team swipp

[teamswipp]

you guys cannot even compile a mac wallet or linux one, do not have a whitepaper yet. Why would anyone take you seriously? Shitcoin

So a whitepaper somehow makes a project more serious? Don't be ridiculous.

We actually had this discussion on the team and you will never see a whitepaper from us. We are not a business or a research project. We also consider the "white papers" that the majority of coins today release a complete joke and a farse.

Swipp is focused on blockchain development, to have fun and to create something great. Things change and we come up with new ideas all the time. Hence, we want a dynamic road map and the ability to change our minds. We will expand our wiki on the github repo, but a whitepaper that needs constant changes is not practical.

Almost the whole team of Swipp are Linux users. However, we run variations of LMDE, Debian and Arch on our machines. We could easily provide packages for a Linux distro or two, but the problem is that there are a lot of distributions, variations and flavors out there. Again - not really practical, and we can't please everybody. As a Linux user, it's really more practical to just follow the build instructions and compile the wallet yourself.

None of us run OS X, but as we have stated before, we are looking for a maintainer of the OS X wallet. Anybody willing to contribute can join the team as a maintainer. So if there are any OS X users out there with some development knowledge that would be willing to contribute, please let us know by sending a mail to info@swippcoin.com.

Vixor, team swipp

Keep up the good work

[rewse]

So, withdrawals Swipp from Coinsmarket is available now? Which wallet version I need to use for receive coins?

[teamswipp]

Greetings Swippians!

We have some minor updates to mediate to the community.

Coinsmarkets
Concerning the exchange coinsmarkets, it seems they finally pulled out and ran away. The site has been completely down for over a week with zero communication from the owners. While we do not know the exact amount, we do know that the site is holding a substantial amount of Swipp. If you had holdings on the exchange, we urge you to report them in any way you can. If enough people do, we might get investigations started into the matter. We are deeply disappointed with their lack of any proper code of conduct and very sorry for all the people that got duped by these charlatans. This is exactly the kind of behavior and people we do not want in our cryptocurrency-community.

Wallet development
The wallet has recently seen some major updates in the GitHub repository which you can follow here, https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/commits/master. Some of the changes are specific to Windows. With the changes, Swipp is now slowly moving away from the original code base, becoming a completely unique development branch and cryptocurrency. Chaozer is currently preparing the next release of the wallet with a lot of these changes. If you want to help him test the changes before release, you can either join our discord (https://discord.gg/ZHVVjdZ) or send him a message directly via chaozer@swippcoin.com. We want to get the next version of the wallet released as soon as possible, so we can focus on the next major iteration of Swipp.

With the next wallet version, we plan to switch to a new build suite which will let us easily maintain binaries for Windows, OS X and a number of Linux distributions.

Muntster
Muntster is reportedly coming along nicely and is going to need beta testers, please contact Chaozer via discord (https://discord.gg/ZHVVjdZ) or directly (chaozer@swippcoin.com) if you are interested contributing. The exchange needs people that test the functionality, play around with the features and try to break (hack) the site. They need to iron out as many rough edges as possible before release and before a public test run.

Blockchain and masternodes
We are also happy to report that the Swipp blockchain has now surpassed 400 000 blocks. This means that there has been a small adjustment in the block rewards as specified on http://www.swippcoin.com/specifications. While the number of masternodes fluctuates slightly on the network, we have also seen that we reached a masternode count of 53 recently - a new record for the network.

Market situation
The current situation on the market resembles what happened in 2014 in more ways than one. So far, we have almost seen a similar correction of the Bitcoin price and a similar situation with the cash return from miners. While it might look frightening, we want to remind everybody that this is not the first time Bitcoin (or the cryptocurrency market) does this kind of correction. We are very confident that the market will recover.

Thank you everybody. More news will follow as soon as the next wallet is out.

Yours, team swipp

Greetings Swippians!

Great news, thanks TEAM!!!

From the outside, it seems the project is developing well and receives sufficient support. But the addition of coins to the new exchange would add volumes and new users. It is still in the future would be reflected positively on the project as a whole.

Coinsmarkets
Concerning the exchange coinsmarkets, it seems they finally pulled out and ran away. The site has been completely down for over a week with zero communication from the owners. While we do not know the exact amount, we do know that the site is holding a substantial amount of Swipp. If you had holdings on the exchange, we urge you to report them in any way you can.

We are deeply disappointed with their lack of any proper code of conduct and very sorry for all the people that got duped by these charlatans. This is exactly the kind of behavior and people we do not want in our cryptocurrency-community.

Yes, looks like CoinsMarkets went bust finally. I lost a decent amount. Too bad, but I think that I will not buy the Swipp coins again.

[teamswipp]

For immediate release!

Hello everybody. A lot has been going on since the last announcement. Below are some of the highlights happening in the project.

New wallet release
We are happy to announce a new release of the Swipp wallet.

The last version of the wallet had some major problems under Windows. Instead of just releasing a version with some quick patches, Chaozer went all in and did a complete re-haul to big parts of the wallet, optimizing and improving much of the code. In total, there were 77 commits made to 132 different files. A full comparison since the last version can be viewed here; https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/compare/2.1.3...2.1.5. You can also see a brief list of new features listed with the release notes; https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/releases/tag/2.1.5.

With this release (2.1.5) of the wallet, we provide binaries for both Windows and Linux (x86-64). The Linux binary comes in the form of a distro-independent AppImage exectuble. We are also planning to cross-compile a OS X binary with future releases. However, this has not been accomplished yet, as the cross compilation environment is very tricky to deal with.

This release also provides a bootstrap database that you can use to quickly import the blockchain into the wallet. Instructions on how to go about when importing the blockchain can be found inside the archive. The bootstrap can be downloaded via the link below.

Muntster
While behind schedule, Muntster is coming along nicely. However, new beta testers for the site are still needed, so if you are interested, please contact chaozer@swippcoin.com and offer your services. Knowledge ín JavaEE and Java Server Faces is a big bonus, but definitely not a requirement.

Market situation and price
As with many other cryptocurrencies, we have seen a recent price drop of Swipp on Crex24 (https://crex24.com/exchange/SWIPP-BTC). At the moment, the supply of Swipp on the exchange is just above 100 000 Swipp, which is quite low. We need more volume and a bigger supply on the exchange, so if you hold some Swipp that you would be willing to part with, please post some of it for sale on the exchange. We think it would benefit the community and bring more people into the project.

Website
We have updated the website (http://www.swippcoin.com) and made some more changes to the roadmap. In the coming days, we are also planning to post the website code on the GitHub project page, which will allow the community to contribute with changes and pull requests to the website.

Promotional program
We are planning a promotional program for Swipp. We intend to have some coding bounties and advertising bounties that the community or newcomers to the community can claim in order to earn some Swipp. While we have some ideas on what to do here, suggestions are welcome and can be sent to info@swippcoin.com. You ca also discuss it on our discord and post suggestions there, https://discord.gg/ZHVVjdZ

Developers and development
Now that this version has been released, we will begin work on the next iteration of Swipp and slowly merge our adaptive masternode code with the main master branch. We would also like to reach out to all developers interested in blockchain technology and blockchain development. We are always looking for good developers to join the project. If you love coding and you think you can contribute, please let us know on info@swippcoin.com.

Yours, team swipp

[Vituscc]

much work has been done!

[teamswipp]

A small update!

Hello Swippians! This time around, we have a few small updates to relay.

Updates to the explorer
Our fork of the Iquidus Explorer (http://explorer.swippcoin.com) has seen some nice additions and some needed changes.

We fixed a number of layout bugs, making the explorer site more responsive and mobile-friendly. Recently, the FreeGeoIP service (which the explorer uses for GeoIP positioning), tuned into a paid service. We quickly responded by switching to GeoIP nekudo. As a bonus, this gives us additional positioning data, including the city of the location (if available).

We also introduced a new network page (http://explorer.swippcoin.com/network) to the explorer where you can view the distribution of versions connecting to the Swipp network.

New wallet adoption
At the time of writing, the new wallet version (2.1.5) is already the most common wallet version on the network and is responsible for 36% of all connections.

Keep updating those wallets! As always, you can get the latest version of the wallet from https://github.com/teamswipp/swippcore/releases, or directly via the website on, http://www.swippcoin.com.

Bounty portal, promotional program
The bounty portal that will be hosted directly on the masternodes of the Swipp network has seen some recent work. We have decided to publish a preview of the portal directly on the website in order to promote the currency and engage the community in some bounties. You will be able to post bounty suggestions and claim published bounties directly on the website. We hope to have everything from promotional bounties to coding bounties available on the site. Everybody in the community will be able to fund the bounties by sending Swipp directly to an assigned address.

Before the portal gets uploaded, we encourage you to join the discord server (https://discord.gg/ZHVVjdZ) and give us some suggestions of bounties you would like to see. If you have some interesting exotic ideas about functionality the portal should feature, we also encourage you to post suggestions.

Website
Website has now been posted to GitHub and can be cloned directly from the repository, https://github.com/teamswipp/website.  We encourage any and all pull requests .

Yours, team swipp
