I get errors like the one below:

Wallet Restart will normally clear that up ,

Is your Wallet Encrypted , so it is not trying to stake while synced?

The Date of the Block is 2016-05-10 14:41:36

We have a Blockchain Snapshot later than that

Thank you for your reply!

Did several restarts, left wallet running for several hours, no change. Will try the bootstrap now.

EDIT: Bootstrap works like a dream. Quick too! Wallet is syncing now.

Far too many Knights have neither donated yet; nor said why not.

...Perhaps it's time to start thinking about a healthy dose of 'name & shame'?

What say the community?

ABOUT THE TITHE

I see it, at its' heart, as both the practical expression of the Knightly virtue of charity, and a statement of faith in the future of our beloved coin.

As I understand it, the Tithe is a voluntary act. It's not a condition of Knighthood that an exact figure is calculated & required to be paid. Yes, there is a guideline of 10% of the interest gained on the 100,000,000 Zeit needed for Knighthood - which for the year up to March 2016 would be 1,500,000 Zeit - but as

a) The fund has not had the chance to gain interest on those donations due to  - let's be honest here - apathy 'at the top'; &

b) Most of the Knights are actually holding substantially more than that 100 million,

my own feeling is that a somewhat greater show of generosity is in order, so that's what I've done. I hope other Knights feel the same.

Please remember that the PURPOSE of the fund is to both contribute towards the costs of maintaining the services essential to our continued growth; and to build the ability to create &/or support projects which are 'in-tune' with the long-term ethos of our shared vision of a better future for all mankind through the intelligent use of technology.

Also, there is no bar to any other holder of Zeitcoin from making a voluntary contribution to the fund - just because.

All that said, the address for this round of donations to the Knights' Fund is:-

MrLionJW5cAok3Es6CWiXD6W8kHm5YCygk

(Thanks to Ray for creating the custom addy for me. It will, of course, be locked with a secure passcode at all times.)

Remember that everyone can see the balance, and how many payments have been made, by using one of our block explorers ... or even from your own wallet.

OK, now that you've read all that, here's the easy-to-cut-paste version of the donation addy:-

Please PM your TX IDs to Kiklo so he can keep a track of the who's & what's

Cool to see some action in ZEITcoin. I haven't been here for years. Good luck!

What say the community? ...

Speaking as an outsider (my Zeitcoin holding is negligible), if someone has signed up to be a Knight and the intention is to act as an effective unit to further the Zeit cause, then they are honour bound to comply with the conditions of being a Knight.

Naming and shaming could be counter-productive and could make others think twice about becoming a Knight, but maybe that could be a good thing in that only dedicated people will in future apply to be Knights. Personally, I wouldn't make a big thing out of naming and shaming as a punishment. A simple, unvarnished statement of accounts showing who has paid and who hasn't should be enough.

EDIT:

A better way might be to issue several reminders and if there is no response, the defaulters should be considered for suspension until such times that they feel that they can contribute again.

Do you Knights swear an oath of allegiance? Maybe Knights should have a clear Knight-exit capability if they find that after joining they unable to meet their obligations. That way those in admin would know better where they stand and are not messed around so much.

[solarion]

Let us not get into publicly humiliating those knights that have not yet contributed. Those knights that have not yet contributed may have valid reasons for their delay. Perhaps they're simply detained in other realms and haven't yet heard the call or perhaps they've suffered personal misfortune and could benefit from our support rather than our scorn.

[solarion]

Seems that war was declared on Zeitcoin at 1 satoshi. All for sale at that pittance seem to have abruptly disappeared.

[stevegreer]

I agree that public shaming is a bit hasty. Personally, this is the first time in a while I have been in the forum and it's been even longer since the last time I opened my wallet to sync. Life happens, and mine has been quite busy these past 6 months or so. Perhaps a more reasonable approach would be to post a reminder every so often to include the address the bounty should be sent to.

Personally agree with Solarion, as many Knights have most likely not even seen the post.
I would suggest just quoting the original post and sending it to them in a PM, which will show up in their email attached to their BTCtalk account.
They may see that sooner.

Looks like no one wants zeitcoin. Need keep the comunity active

I think there are as many good arguments for and against. I agree that we shouldn't be too pushy with that one and name people publicly. This may end up being counter-productive, as we want to have as many active knights as possible. Speaking of which, we need the pot to grow to be able to bring more community action.

Cryptopia LTC Market
Total Buy Orders => ~39 Million

Cryptopia Doge Market
Total Buy Orders =>  ~855 Million

SouthXchange LTC Market
Total Buy Orders =>  ~7½ Million

Exactly how many million does it take before you see that People do want ZEIT.

Or did you mean to say no one will buy ZEIT from you at your current price point.
If so you have 2 options.
1. Sell at a lower Price Point
2. Have Patience and wait for it to sell at your Price Point.

Block Explorers are running, the ZEIT Network is running, Forum Support is Active, All Exchanges are Online.
Exactly what do you want to see the Community doing?


 


FYI:
Just to put the Current Price in Perspective,
The Majority of Coins all took a Massive Hit with the BTC Pump, HBN, Tek and others (They are in the ~$20,000 Marketcap range now.)
ZEIT trading range was between $200,000 & $400,000 before the BTC Pump and has stay consistent through it all in the same trading range.
If the current 15 Knights felt a need , we could all focus $100 at the same time (Total $1500 or ~375 Litcoins) and purchase every ZEIT on Cryptopia LTC Sell orders all of the Way up to 1 ZEIT = $2 , but we are not going to do that.
One this is not a Pump & Dump coin, This is the Future Coin for the World and we will take our time and do it right.
Two that would not help any New Members become Knights if we make it harder for them to afford the 100 Million requirement.
Which many have already expressed it as a size-able investment.

[LionOfNarnia]

For sure, we've suffered less, and rebounded quicker, than most of our 'rivals'.

- Maybe because we are, and will remain, focused on being a coin for the future?

2016 is a year of global financial turmoil. The ponzi scheme of fiat currency, the insane power-play of the Rothschild-Zionists is approaching its' final death-rattle.

...and the worst is still to come.

Between 'the halvening', the end of the Shemitah/Jubilee year (Oct 2nd), the #Brexit fallout, the impending collapses of the ECB & the Japanese economy, the never-ending 'tensions' in the middle east & the farcical US presidential race, it will be a terrible time for those who remain outside the world of crypto.

But we see clearly what is coming, we are prepared for it. We have a rock-solid coin which is ready to save the world, and a community of compassionate, enlightened souls who have the interests of the whole of humanity at heart.

We will resist any and all efforts to force KYC on our wallets, become enslaved to 'regulation' or become a pawn of those who would sell their mothers for a few dollars.

We will stand up & fight for freedom.

We are ZEITCOIN!

I think the point about volume is valid. 800 millions looks like a big number, but let me put it into perspective. What is the total coinage atm? Just writing it from my head now, correct me if it is wrong, it is more than 30 billion coins. Meaning, less than 3% of total coinage in buy orders. That doesn't look like the most loved coin in the block.

Compared to the other coins , except the ones that are being Pumped like crazy , we are doing pretty good.
The fact that you don't see 30 Billion sitting at 1 litoshi, implies the majority of ZEIT holders get it.
They are holding their principle amount until we are at a more realistic price compared to what we have now.
Problem with being Visionaries is it takes the rest of the world time to catch up.
As with most things just a matter of time.

kiklo, once again, it looks like you haven't read my post. I was writing about buy orders, not sell orders.
That is exactly the point. We have some ZEIT zealots (myself included) who won't drop their coins ever, plus not too many more people interested in joining ZEIT -> people willing to buy 3% of all coins. That is something we need to change, sooner or later, if we want to keep existing in a broader perspective.

As for being visionary, I prefer to be critical about myself in the first place, before saying that world has yet to learn in order to understand me. It is much safer that way. Not offending anyone, in the history we have plenty of examples showing that the difference between being a visionaire and being a lunatic is, indeed, very thin. So, I agree with your point about being patient for the things to resolve our way, but I also believe ZEIT needs some actions to be understood better and become more successful in the crypto community.

In my case Razor Thin . 

Actions are needed, but until we drop out of the 15% rate, not the optimal timing for it.

1. The ZEIT ad network , where people trade ZEIT for banner & other ads, will need to be started within a few months of going to 5% rate.
   Any ideas about this, and how we should accomplish it , is welcome.

2. What actions would you like to see done?
