OLD ANNBitcointalkcoin (TALK) is implementing a blockchain swap. The swap enables the coin to start on a fresh chain (instant sync times) , introduces all advancements in blockchain technology since the start of the old chain and allows streamlining development and maintenance of the project by keeping at par with our new maintainer's customized source code. Taking over maintenance is BlockchainMechanic and the new blockchain will have the following parameters:- Ticker: TALK Based on Bitcoin 0.18.0 Supports segwit , CLTV and CSV from block 0 PoW 10000 blocks to bootstrap PoS minting (only ~250 PoW blocks were actually mined to get PoS chain moving) PoW Algorithm: Momentum (CPU & GPU mining only) PoS interest: 25% annually Block Time: 1 Minute Block Maturity: 101 Blocks Per block difficulty adjustment P2P Port: 8372 RPC Port: 8445

StatusSwap complete Currently working on wallets for all platforms. InfrastructureWe will need to get two good reliable VPSes. I use Crown Cloud and that would be ideal. The cost will be 2* $70 for a year. SoftwareAt launch binaries are available for Windows/Linux and Mac, although there has been having trouble getting the latest version of Bitcoin (on which our source is based) to build a mac dmg. I will be working with the bitcoin core team here :- Mac build progress to resolve it. An Android version is also in the works , but may take longer. TechnologiesI intend to begin releasing updates that will integrate techniologies and functionality that i have been working on , such as cross-chain messaging which uses teh TOTEM protocol. (All of which is in my soon to be written white-paper) when i have completed at least the android build Anyone who wishes to assist in paying for exchanges and infrastructure please send what ever you can to 1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7 . The faster we get everything set up and paid for , the better. If anyone needs to contact me directly, find me on discord :- BlockMechanic#8560

Address now reflects 0.051 BTC. So we are ready on that front. I am going to fill in their form now and submit, hopefully we can have the details down by end of day. Should this happen, the swap will happen at 00:00 GMT with the new chain kicking in almost immediately. Users will be able to check out their balances from block one so, anyone and everyone who can please setup nodes, run your wallets, mine/ stake and help us create a stable network.
With the change i will try to see if it can pay for at least one VPS and i'll setup a seed node, pool and block explorer (if it can handle it).
Thanks to everyone who contributed. Let's get this thing rolling! I agree that we need to get TALK listed on as many exchanges as possible but even just Novaexchange is not bad for now. BTW how do we get a Copper member status for Talkcoin Team account?

Nova is on board. Meanwhile feel free to download the release candidate here :- Swap Wallet . Once users have checked out their balances and confirmed their accuracy, i will release the final wallet with a checkpoint and we can get going, i have setup a block explorer :- EXPLORER so users can check their balances and i've also contacted fairglu so that the other explorer is updated. To retrieve your coins:- Make a back up of your old wallet.dat, they pop a copy of it in the new data directory. Start the new wallet and your balance should match. Pm me if you have any trouble or find me on discord

Links updated, and some users have confirmed their wallet balances. The chain is moving along, but slowly due to low number of active stakers. Please start your wallets, confirm balance and help strengthen the network and blockchain.

With the chain moving steadily towards stability (We need more stakers!). My focus has now gine more towards the development of the technologies i have been reseaching. While i can't make any formal announcements , i am currently in talks with three other projects in a bid to begin building the cross-chain messaging platform.
More news soon.

Hello and Welcome. In order to participate, you should have been holding coins from the older chain, they were swapped 1:1 onto a new chain. The benefits of the swap are that the new chain is smaller allowing faster sync, backed by more advanced and robust code, can be maintained easily and allows us to move into a rebranding and introduction of new technologies. The swap has already occured so in order to get coins, you have to go on to nova exchange and buy or look for a user willing to part with their coins. Contributions to development and maintanance of the code, chain and network are always welcomed. The receiving address is 1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7feel free to ask any other questions you may have

If you are having trouble syncing , please download the latest release. Also when reporting issues, perhaps fleshing out the report with details such as OS, system specs etc.
The network is still small, only 9 regular nodes.

First of all download the latest release from the github. Add these nodes to your bitcointalkcoin.conf file: addnode=23.233.12.184 addnode=66.23.235.240 Delete everything else in your Appdata directory and resync the client. Should be at the block 16283 rn.

Hi all !
For as long as the network is this small (fell to 6 nodes), we will always have latency issues. One user solves a block, but by the time the announcement reaches the other end of the network, another block may have been generated there. I've managed to get the chain moving however we need to expand the node list.
I'll try get more vps nodes running if possible.

Those are obsolete now and will be removed, theey were meant to help with mining the first 10000 blocks which were PoW to help bootstrap staking... but working with another user we managed to whittle down the PoW blocks to less that 250 in total. So @ 5 TALK per block, we only added less that 1250 coins in order to get PoS reliably working. I consider this a massive success

I tried staking 2 years about with TALK but was staking about ten other coins and couldn't devote the time to it. The old wallet was one of the most problematic of all traded coins. Then staking for the last year with it anyway, so I know how great this upgrade is.

We now have a confirmed android build, still ironing out the issues.
The wallet is a FULL node, so you can stake from your android device. One of the reasons i am still keeping it in house is to try nd figure out if SPV staking can be achieved. Such a breakthrough would be game changing for a stake coin.

We have found a new exchange for TALK and are also pursuing other exchanges to list the coin. Please send BTC to 1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7 to donate to this drive and also if you can spare some to help maintain nodes and explorer. We need 0.15 BTC for the exchange listing.
