I met PURK in early April and finally get a chance to get some before September! I don't know for sure, but something tells me that good things can happen until then, at least the mining reward will be reduced and we will have less than 15 million PURK in circulating, this in itself will guarantee a valuation and motivation to hold this coin.

I just uploaded Purk v.1.0.4 binaries to Github

We've added some new features to the GUI Wallet and made some general improvements throughout the Purk core.

- Resync Blockchain: A button from the "Connections" page to resync the blockchain if wallet was not closed down correctly and has saved a corrupt blockchain.bin
- Reconnect to peers: A reconnect button to reconnect to peers in case of an internet disconnection whilst the wallet is open.
- Restore from seed: Now you can restore your wallet from seed phrase in the GUI
- Console error improvements: Minor improvements to console errors using correct English terminology, spelling and grammar from previous forked code.
- Renamed qt-purk to Purk

Please backup your wallets and update the software to v1.0.4

Move wallet.purk to another folder, then open with .purk.keys and close wallet to save new.

Now the market is going through a bad time. Most new coins have fallen in price several times. We need to wait for things to stabilize.

UPGRADE REQUIRED

We just published Purk v1.0.5 on Github. Please upgrade to the latest version.

https://github.com/purkproject/purk/releases/tag/v1.0.5

[Buzhou]

If the development of PURK is going according to plan, why are prices reflecting something else?
Is this downtime or maybe a preparation for something big?

I think you should adjust the ann thread to be a bit more transparently.
You should emphasize that this one is optional or mandatory upgrade for community.
I guess this one is a mandatory one, but you should mention it officially.

Hi Buzhou look around at many other coins - you're in a bear market. Development is continuing as usual - there is nothing we can do about the price of PURK but continue to do what we are doing...

I just uploaded Purk v.1.0.6 binaries to Github

We've added some new features to the GUI Wallet ready for the Purk API and have made strides in completing in another roadmap item.

- Added 3 new consolidation methods to the Wallet RPC API - sum_inputs, get_consolidation_details and consolidate_inputs. More info on these at https://github.com/purkproject/purk/wiki/Simplewallet-JSON-RPC-API
- Removed website field from Purk Button form - now the Purk Button can be embedded anywhere, website URLs are still tracked by the API itself.
- Added "Minimum donation amount" to the Purk Button form in GUI, now you can specify the lowest donation amount you are willing to accept.
- Added "Enable statistics tracking" to the Purk Button form in GUI, this lets us know whether you want your button statistics to be public or not.
- Improved console error logs in core_rpc_server

Please update your wallets to Purk v1.0.6

https://github.com/purkproject/purk/releases/tag/v1.0.6

Look out for another update very soon about the Purk API launch!!

Pork is forbidden for consumption at g20 summit. PURK? Do we need that? I would expect deviations in the mood of a person patronizing PURK foundation because of dissimilarities between their current state of mind and the trail of thought they used to have when they were sane. What could go wrong now given that PURK gives u no guarantees, only disappointment and is the product of effete mentality of whoever spawned it. Pork.

We've just launched the Purk Button API.



Developers can now create websites and applications that are fully integrated with the Purk donations system.

Here's what we've done:

- Added minimum fee, mixin, payment ID and unlock time to the donations modal.
- Implemented Get Stats - Get all the stats (payments, activities and locations) about a button, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Payments - Get all the payments of a button, by using its API key including date filtering, tx hash, amount, payment ID donations count and totals.
- Implemented Get Activities - Get all the activities (views/clicks) regarding a button, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Locations - Get all the locations (webpages) a button was seen in, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Location Payments - Get all the payments (donations) made to a button on a given location, by using the button's API key and the location's ID
- Implemented Get Location Activities - Get all the activities (views/clicks) of a button on a given location, by using the button's API key and the location's ID
- Allowed for unlimited button creation per wallet address distinguished by API Key.
- Enabled statistics tracking the GUI wallet
- Enabled minimum donation amount in the GUI wallet
- Launched the API website at <https://api.purkproject.com>
- Updated our donations page to showcase the Purk Button API in action

All previously generated Purk Buttons will stay in-tact, however, these buttons won't be available for statistics tracking.

You can find more information/documentation on how to use the Purk API at https://api.purkproject.com

You can also see an example of the Purk Button API in action on our new donations page https://donate.purkproject.com - now your donations and totals update immediately. Feel free to test it out!

Look out for a development update on Medium over the upcoming days which will go in to everything in a lot more detail.

Enjoy : D

good to see devs delivering, this may show up when the market turns.

PURK is coming close to block 176640, in fact it may take another 1 or 2 months to happen! This situation will be interesting because we will have a small natural appreciation in its price and soon several websites will have their PURK button... It's a matter of weeks for a quick adoption and understanding that PURK is the monetization of hardworkers and a backup source of value.

[Tansmorph]

The potential is very huge of Purk. The only thing is, the devs have to deliver there promissed stuff and also it is not easy to bring the button on all the websites in the www.
