No worries. If entering the market around this time, profits will likely be great. Focus should be on continued growth/promotion of the network.

Discord --> cpu-hashrate / gpu-hashrate it will help you.
About 2k left for block reward halving.
What about " Time to Sapling: 32days 9h 13m 18s to block 227520 " , what is that mean?
I remembered.
P.S.

Sapling upgrade activating October 28th (block: 227520)

Hi, Are you still having trouble? I don't believe the SPV servers are down recently. They are run by a community service provider 0x03, who is quite often on our Discord. If possible, please go there for help, and he or someone can help. I'll ask if there have been any known issues. Thanks.

We've just announced the latest planned update capabilities in a tweetstorm that calls out Vitalik Buterin, and Zcash's Zooko to ask for criticism of our new solution that solves two theoretical proof of stake issues by using an enhanced crypto-condition contract, activating on October 28th, along with Sapling support. There's a lot in the Tweet Storm, and the last tweet is a link to our community's @John Westbrook 's article on how the new Stake Guard capability works. Again, this is a major breakthrough and not only a solution to fundamental proof of stake problems, but also leveraging enhancements to the Komodo crypto-conditions that will be fundamental to our PBaaS work. We plan to release the newest version a little later this week after full testing. Verus Coin's upcoming release is an advance worth sharing!
Enjoy!

I'm curious how to do Staking Veruscoin on Agama wallet?
I left my wallet to Staking since last night, but i still don't get any rewards or coins for Staking....

Does mining more rewarding or Staking your coins is more rewarding?

perhaps this user meant that how the number of tokens was changed, and not what you explained. although what you said is also the place to be.

Don't know if you checked the pinned messages in the #staking channel on Discord.
There's a great guide how to do staking and AFAIK you'll need about 5K to hit a block a day consecutively.

The new Sapling compatible Verus Coin release with an enhanced crypto-condition-based solution for nothing at stake is now available! We have posted the releases both on github here: https://github.com/VerusCoin/VerusCoin/releases/tag/v0.4.0, and on the website as well here: https://veruscoin.io/
There are a lot of improvements in this release over past releases, including much faster and more efficient blockchain synchronization. Here are the highlights from the release notes:
Sapling
Verus Coin 0.4.0 includes support for Sapling addresses and transactions, including memory usage reduction of near 98% and performance improvements over previous z-transactions typically 40-50x. As with Zcash Sapling upgrade rules, older “Sprout” addresses and “Sapling” addresses may not be mixed in the same transaction. That means if you have Verus Coin that you would like to move from an older Sprout z-address to a Sapling z-address, you must first send it to a transparent address, then to the Sapling z-address. Sapling addresses can be used for shielding coinbase transactions or other functions. Retrieving viewing keys for Sapling addresses, which is not required for normal transactions, is not yet supported, and will be included in the next Sapling technology update.
VerusCoin
Community driven open source CPU mineable cryptocurrency with 50/50 Proof-of-Work/Proof-of-Stake, zk-SNARK zero-knowledge proof privacy.

Crypto-conditions and StakeGuard
Verus-enhanced, Komodo crypto-condition technology, enabling smart transactions and new types of on-chain functionalities. Verus has enhanced the original crypto-condition technology to make integration with standard transactions easier and enable things like StakeGuard, the Verus nothing-at-stake solution. In later releases, the same technology will enable PBaaS, voting, identity capabilities, and more.
Cheat Catcher
In addition to Stake Guard, which supports the nothing at stake solution, this version of Verus includes an early, functional version of the Cheat Catcher, a system that enables every miner or staker to catch stake cheating, when someone stakes two blocks with the same coins on two or more forks. With this version, all known orphaned stake transactions are compared to successful stakes when they mature, and if the orphan was trying to stake the exact same coins but on a different fork and the real fork at the same time, the miner of the block that is 100 blocks later, when that coinbase matures, will mine or stake a spend transaction for that cheat into the block, and send it to a sapling address the miner or staker has set in their wallet. If your wallet catches and spends a cheat transaction the reward for that coinbase will be automatically shielded to your address at the same time as you win the block. The early Cheat Catcher does not broadcast cheating transactions, and it will not catch all possible cheats on the network. It will make it a statistically losing proposition to cheat. This means you should not stake the same addresses on more than one computer at a time. Doing so creates the possibility that you will stake on two forks with the same coins, which puts your earnings at risk. Future cheat catcher implementations will excel at catching cheats on the network.
Stake Delegation
In the new Verus network protocol that activates at the same time as Sapling, you can now set the parameter -pubkey in the command line wallet, which will redirect both mining AND staking rewards to the public key of an address, which can be obtained from an address with the “validatekey” command.
This is a mandatory update before October 28th. Website is updated with all releases, please refresh before downloading. The version is 0.4.0. All clients must be updated before block 227520. Enjoy!

Thanks for the info, very helpful

So is anyone actually having luck with this coin?

[aknataga]

Have updated wallet to 0.4.0
Of course had to download again zcash parameters.
As regards network synchronization, for me  it takes about 55% for a 24h.
May affected launched miner    

What about new CPU miner from monkins, hashrate changed?

P.S. Updated
After I have turned off miner, 40% of synch takes about 40 minutes.

How legit/safe is this digitalprice exchange to use? Never even heard of it and the only coin with any volume at all is verus?
