My main question and concern is the RAM usage. Why is it so high and steadily keeps rising? I'd like to know what causes it. Any ideas what could be done to calm that down?

Hello Derek,

RAM usage is high due to all the data being read constantly, while we could offload some of the data being accessed to disk, that would just cause disk I/O to go up and the trade off isn't really worth it in our eyes, although that isn't to rule anything out, we will continue to evaluate the situation and make improvements where we can.

Seems like it's going up at a pace of 500MB per year. I suppose that's not too bad; this could be worse.  But at this rate, in 30 years that would put us at about 15GB of RAM though lol. Not sure if this is a real problem considering most good new computers already have that much RAM. I guess if we have the ability to offload it if needed, then that's good. Could we make multiple wallet versions, like a low RAM version for people that may not much to spare? Just curious.

Does Mintcoin have any future plans in the works? I have a few thousand mints that I just found in an old wallet haven't sold wanna keep them and start minting them if there's any future for Mint

We're working on a number of projects at the moment:
Proposed revisions/changes to the existing line of desktop wallets (https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/MintCoin-Docs/blob/master/Wallets/2.0-Proposed_Revisions.md).
Physical trading card game in which some cards act as paper wallets (http://mintymintcoin.com/MintCards.html)
Also the long project of overhauling desktop wallets completely (details forthcoming)
Thank you very much for replying.. also good to hear mint is still being worked on, very interesting physical trading card game acting as paper wallet sounds interesting. Will wait for the details for desktop wallets

Is it all official now? MINT is complete now at 5% per year and everything is going to be constant at this rate; smooth sailing from here on out; no more rate changes?
This is important to know for the future for planning and for economic reasons.

Right, but that would require hard forking. Correct?

Do you enjoy brutality and destruction directed at actual Mint Cards?  Join me today on Periscope at 12 pm EST.   Cheesy

The purpose of this video is to document the BURN or absolute destruction of Mint Lotus Alpha cards so existing cards become more rare.

A day or so ago I noticed my wallet stopped updating and so I figured I would see if the wallet needed repair. It did, so I did many clicks (20 mins or so worth) and it finally passed test.  I checked an hour or so ago and the last update was 1 day ago <last=  3,194,146, with 6 peers connected atm. After another 15 minutes of constant clicking the wallet still does not pass.  There is no delectable reading of the hard drive (console monitor), but 3 processes are each writing ~1mbps. 

MY peer count has always been single digit... wonde rif I am off in a bad group or something.. for sure hundreds of repair wallet claick shoud not be needed...
 Any help?

Tx in advance

sounds like you're off on a fork. Block #3,194,146 was certainly not just one day ago (happened on the 15th) http://www.fuzzbawls.pw/explore/MintCoin/block.php?height=3194146

compare some of your block hashes with the explorer, if they don't match you'll need to resync. Also make sure you're running v2.0.2.

54 29 Mint Lotus Alpha Cards currently exist.  15 are still available as of Dec. 29th.  NONE will be available after Dec. 31st.

Want to pickup a Mint Lotus with mint, btc, or another currency?  Shoot me a PM.

At the current rate of burn I loosely expect about 15-25 Mint Lotus cards to exist in total.  Burn rate will increase leading up to Jan. 1st.

Development on an all new card #2 continues.  I hope to have more info on the second release in Jan.

STAY MINTY!

Out of curiosity, I just don't get, why are you burning the cards?
It seems to me burning the cards makes as much sense as sending a bunch of MINT to a wallet and then burning it so the coins are lost forever.
I mean you can do whatever you want with your own property, but if it is rational to destroy some of the cards you worked/labored to create, wouldn't it also be rational to destroy some of the MINT you worked/labored to create?
If it is not rational, why are you doing it?
If it is rational, then why don't you destroy some MINT too and send some coins to the card you are burning up, and by destroying the MINT, make MINT rarer too???
