[ANN] [PURK] Purk - A Cryptocurrency for Donations, Tips & Private Payments

[IonicTong]

Recently a lot of exchanges took CryptoNote wallets offline due to a double counting bug found in CryptoNote code. We were aware that PURK would not be affected by this bug, but for transparency reasons we created this post so our users know that they‘re PURK is safe and business can continue as usual.

We have contacted TradeOgre and Altex and are waiting for confirmation that we can be reactivated shortly.

Both of these exchanges should disable deposits and withdrawals before all bugs fixed to avoid customer losses, network congestions, and abundant support tickets.

This is exactly what both exchanges did. PURK was mistakenly deactivated, it's only coins that are forked from Monero that have this bug - please read the report on Medium.

Altex have already reactivated PURK just waiting on TradeOgre.

I have a website that offers some services. I want to accept payments in the cryptocurrency. How can I do this with a Purk? Where can I read the manual?

You will need to install the GUI wallet - https://github.com/purkproject/purk/releases

Once you generate a wallet address, you can visit the Purk API page and generate a donations button for your website

historical minimum on exchange, mining do not earn even the socket. hope team will finally pay some attention to it and promote the coin better. I bought it at 0,1$ price when it was jumping 0,08-1,15. The better way to loose all investors is making nothing to keep exchange rates comfortable. as for the moment it goes exact the same way as 300+ other shitcoins with excellent ideas

Hi Sharpeich please tell me what we can do other than what we are doing now? We are developers, we continue to develop each month, every month. We also market the coin each month with an available PR fund. YOU are the traders, not the devs, we can only do what we are doing, Traders do what they are doing and in effect, set the prices... There is absolutely no way of making exchange rates "comfortable" - if it were that easy - everyone and his dog would be doing it.

Also, before investing, did you take note the fact that Purk didnt have an ICO, pre-mine or funding stage? We pay for marketing and development as we go from the emission model and community donations. For people to think we would have HUGE budgets to throw at advertising campaigns at such an early stage - I would suggest need to do their due diligence a little more. It's also very unrealistic to think that the minute you invest in a currency that it will immediately make you money overnight or even in the space of a couple of weeks. Things will take time, IF it goes that way - we make no promises, all we can do is stick to our roadmap items, market with any available funds and progress the development of the coin - Rome wasn't built in a day...

If this model is not for you, I kindly suggest you move on. Negativity breeds negativity and quite honestly, we don't need that here.

I have not yet installed the button. As soon as I do, I'll show the site. In the future, you can make a page listing all the sites that use the PURK. Sorry for my English

You need to add token details to let participants to get in the idea!  Good luck team.

Hi. I want to buy some purk on an exchange and put it to my wallet. Do I have to sync the wallet to transfer the coins there, do you have other options, like remote sync.

Kinsey this is certainly in our plans - but a little more than that. Once the public API is released anything is possible.

Coinminer trojan detected in wallet instalation

¿?...

[IonicTong]

Please see previous posts. This is a false positive. Unquarantine with windows defender - this is common in many coins. Everything is safe.

Hey guys, Im a beginner miner with linux. Can someone please direct me to some tutorial that is easier to understand than what is on the site. On the site is super confusing and not user-friendly, but more programmer-friendly
