Btw, just wanted to show, that mint could be more rare than gold someday.. I was talking about it on another thread, and apparently a lot of people don't know that Gold and other precious metals xan be made from glass with microwaves, and its actually cheaper than mining it. The electrons added changed the molecular structure into gold. https://youtu.be/ISeusr6H2Rc

The block explorer is out of date on checkpoints and hosting is expiring any minute. How do we get them to update their wallet? Ive donated to this in the past, but I'd like to see them be current with checkpoints before donating more. Maybe if it expires it will get their attention? Any ideas? https://chainz.cryptoid.info/mint/#!cryptoStep 1 : Add some BTC to keep the explorer running Hosting for this blockchain will expire on 2016-04-14 (in -0.3 days) Hosting can be extended by a donation to BTC 1QJpbqzkyFNcLGsC46DjXJmY1hLgHoya5CHosting rate for this blockchain is currently $9.9 per month Step 2 : PM fairglu that you would like him to update to the latest version (If the Github has changed be sure to tell him what the new one is first) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=221182Also you need to let him know he might need that custom bootstrap.dat , if the update crashes his explorer. If so the explorer will be offline ~40 hours until the custom bootstrap can be loaded or much longer if he has to sync from scratch. FYI : FairGlu is one of the Great Guys in Crypto, if Mint version was never updated , it was only because no one ever informed him there was a new release.

Heads up mint community! You may know about the recent issues at cryptsy but it looks as though Paul is actively liquidating and dumping MINTcoin on poloniex. If you care about this coin, you may want to contact them and ask them to look into it.
Evidence that shows this? It's part of a bigger embezzlement scam by Vern. It's not just Mint it's ETH too. Forensics show he moved mint and eth onto poloniex on April 10 and then started dumping them. This is one reason the price has been plummeting so fast these past few days.

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/mint/wallet.dws?585760.htmI believe this is the main cryptsy wallet for MINT - or at least one of them; if anyone who has made deposits or withdraws from/to cryptsy and you can report addresses know of cryptsy it can help with investigation. Vern is one of biggest holders.

Interesting data Fontas Returns. Thank you for posting.
I'm glad we're stable at this point and coins are going back to open distribution channels.
[EDIT] Fontas Returns, if it helps, I'm hoping to help provide some Cryptsy addresses sometime this weekend

ax66, can you explain your findings. What was dumped on cryptopia and how you know it was cryptsy coins? I suspected cryptopia and bter may be involved, it doesn't look like bleutrade is. The exchanges it appears Vern is using to launder cryptsy coins are:
BITTREX: We know on 4/10 he deposited a huge ammount of UNO and apparently tried to liquidate them
POLONIEX: He appears to be active lately unloading eth and mint, posssibly others, also showing heavy activity since 4/10
Other exchanges he has used or may be using:
BTER: He may be active in dumping on bter, the recent dumps look suspicious, he has definitely used it in the past for his embezzlement scheme
CRYPTOPIA: ax66 thinks he's dumping on Cryptopia, this also seems possible
BTCE: Probably not doing much there now, but after Vern did the "critical event" hack inside job, the stolen ltc was partly laundered through btce
KRAKEN: He has also used kraken to launder coins, unknown if he is actively doing so now

I think exchanges need to make their security such that even someone within the company cannot access your funds. Time and time again it proves third parties cannot.be trusted if anyone has access to coins other than the owner, eventually coins get swiped.

[1] just an FYI ... UNO community has always kept an eye on exchange held coins ... and we knew which wallet was the Cryptsy wallet ... long story short ... someone sent all those coins to bittrex to be sold ... and because bittrex was informed by team UNO that this happened (and there is a legal court order to not move the funds) ... it looks like the UNO is now in safe hands ... cool story no? Sad to say it looks like BigVern is dumping all coins in his control and unless you can track and trace him.

Hey devs, how is the progress on the wallet? Its almost 6 months i think since you started the codebase update. It would be cool if you can give us a report every few weeks. We know you are working hard but if we can see what is being done even if its a bit technical then it would give us some indication how things are going & how far are we from the big release. Thanks for all your work EDIT: Something like this will inspire some confidence. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=727023.msg14460950#msg14460950Keep in mind that there have been actual working wallet releases since work was started on the 2.1 codebase. These releases added new features which are fully documented by the devs and push towards the 2.1 release. You can see an example of this for wallet version 2.0.2 released on 3/2, about a month ago. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=450381.msg14070605#msg14070605After the 2.0.2 release, an official bootstrap was released on 3/12 and updated on 4/5. See the history thread... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1355523.msg13798259#msg13798259Additionally, you can see the devs work on Git with their individual accounts that merge into the main account. Fuzzbawls release notes for 2.0.2 gives you specific documentation of code changes with direct individual links on Git for each change. Would additional updates be cool? Totally. Should those additional updates come at the expense of writing actual code? I'm not suggesting your point is invalid. I'm just asking you to consider the other side of the coin. Distracting the devs with requests for updates could be counter productive. I would personally love to offer more updates in relation to coding the 2.1 wallet but general bug fixes and code modernization isn't always that exciting or easily consumable. If it was then wouldn't you have your eyes glued to Git like your favorite T.V. show? [EDIT] Actually, a 24/7 reality show about development of a coin WOULD be pretty amazing. 24 hour market with a 24 hour show to match. Thanks for replying. You don't need to defend & use sarcasm I understand that devs are busy & i believe them completely but it would be much better if progress is visible to wider community and hodlers of the coin. I am sure a bi-weekly report is possible if that gives everyone a sense of direction and movement. Updates are not a time waste IMO but are rather important for how a coin is perceived. Development has to be balanced with communication. Makes sense? PS: 1 update in 6 months is a bit unbalanced i think. Maybe i got too used to amazing updates by CryptoMommy

Maybe i got too used to amazing updates by CryptoMommy I'm not sure I was using any sarcasm. I am saying that updates have been coming directly from the devs in the form of actual software with release notes, official bootstrap, etc. The devs have been quite clear that they are moving towards a 2.1 release and activity shows that on Git. Everyone working on mintcoin is a volunteer with other jobs and projects. I would prefer the devs focus on coding and doing the work that only their expertise can provide rather then PR, CS, and general admin work. Perhaps I can help you? Is there specific info your looking for? It's quite clear that there has been plenty of communication and software releases within the last 6 months. But yes...we all miss cryptomommy. SIGH. Maybe you can help provide some of the updates that she can no longer do? What type of info is needed in your opinion? Are you interested in helping with mint? Have you seen the history thread?

Just trying to help kind sir. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1355523.msg13798259#msg13798259ah, thanks for the link, its quite awesome! I was looking for something along the link i posted ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=727023.msg14460950#msg14460950) which updates on progress even if there is no release. Not everyone is familiar with github and how to understand the activity going on there. It is a whole new jargon/language to learn. Probably the problem is that this is a very generic/large refresh of the code and there is no specific thing to let people know about. It will come out and everyone will feel the difference in performance but not so much in UI. To provide updates one needs to at least read the dev disscussions, i do that with DCR & BTC core(i mean read dev chats, not the updates ) but i have only so much time. All big coins have some kind of updates that let people know what devs are thinking & discussing. If someone can do that it would be amazing.

Too much power for one individual to have. That's my point: I'd rather see the coins be lost forever than swiped by some top person in an exchange. 2. We have been funding the BE (block explorer), for probably close to a year or so since it was available. I'm sure we'll get it funded up again too. But to say things like you aren't legitimate is rather prejudice. Who has the authority to say that $1M needs this or that? The problem with that, especially for Mintcoin, I think, is that a large % of Mintcoins were lost over the years due to multiple exchange failures, (similar to Cryptsy). I think with MINT, the calculated marketcap may look higher than the real market capitalization because of that. Idk for sure but just something to think about. I know a lot of mintcoins are out of circulation. Actual coins in circulation is probably like 70% of total. Something to consider I guess.

oooph, folks, mint wallet sync speed is among the lowest i've ever seen, worse than hbn. so large thread, so much work, and yet so slow sync, i don't get this. well to be honest i know a little slower sync, it's lftc, but ... ridiculous to compare. maybe i don't know some trick to speed it up huh ? thx for any advice
P.S. i mean speed, blocks per min (not total time to sync, bootstraps and such)
If your worried about slow sync speed you should use the bootstrap to speed things up a bit. Overall sync times should be improved somewhat with the 2.1 release but we have not set any specific dates for that release. Your mint wallet should come online about once a month to download the blockchain and ease overall download maintenance times but is not required. Mint has 30 second block times so I'm not sure I understand your additional comments about speeding it up in comparison to other wallets.
