Thanks for the update but sadly the wallet isn't working on MacOS Catalina (10.15.2) (Error says not compatible with this version)
Please check and update.

Thanks for reporting the issue. We may miss some dependencies when packaging the MacOS app. We will fix the issue and get back to you soon!

We haven't forgotten this issue - still working on a fix. Please give us a couple more days

Happy Chinese New Year!

This is a special presentation to celebrate Chinese New Year and unveil Kevacoin's Chinese name:

100% on Kevacoin blockchain!

Enjoy!

}

We are experiencing a sudden increase of network hash rate. Kevacoin's difficulty retargeting algorithm seems to work as expected, as the average block time is still about 2 minutes (last time I checked).
In case of a sudden decrease of network hash rate, the retargeting algorithm shall adjust downward even faster, allowing other miners to catch up.

v0.16.3.1 Release

This is the first release after the Mainnet launch. It is an important release for developers and mining pool operators and is strongly recommended for these users.

For Mining Pool Operators
Added new RPC getblockheaderbyhash.

For Developers
Added ZeroMQ notification for Keva events (keva_namespace, keva_update, keva_delete). See Kevacoin ZeroMQ(https://github.com/kevacoin-project/kevacoin/blob/master/doc/zmq.md). This should make it much easier to develop on Kevacoin's blockchain data store.
Added new RPC getzmqnotifications.

Minor Changes
Applied Kevacoin's Chinese name.
Updated documentation.

need list exchang

We are still very very new. Our current focus is to build a strong community and encourage more people to use the platform. we have plans to showcase some interesting decentralized applications built on Kevacoin blockchain to demonstrate its power, flexibility, and ease of use.

To build a strong community you will need to engage more people into the project. For this you need to run a bounty campaign on twitter, facebook, linkedin, instagram to make some noise out there and create awareness so more people will come in here and use the platform. At least this is how I would proceed if it was my project.

Thanks for the suggestion!

We are a fair-launch PoW coin, so as Dev we earn coins through mining, just like anyone else. However, we do have several big dudes who have more coins that most of us. We will try to encourage them to contribute to the bounty campaign

what particular decentralized apps are you looking for Keva to venture with? it is really better to have practical use case in crypto market to have a steady growth rather than focusing in listing this to exchanges. 1 or 2 exchanges later is more than enough, but creating value should be the main focus. because without active application, the platform will die down easily and will be dead just like thousands of alts.

Yes, encouraging more developers to develop on our platform is our main focus. We feel that we should promote our platform on ProductHunt, Hacker News, etc, where there are more developers.

But everyone can start using the platform now! Here is an easy way to develop on our platform, publishing a website:
https://explorer.kevacoin.org/ns/html/NceXtbgQD92zrVM7QUnfNhrRcj2DQ1PewD

The tutorial above is published on our platform, by the way  Our explorer can render the web page (with less than 30 lines of code), and anyone can write a simple program to render it too!

A while ago we published a Chinese new year celebration page:
https://explorer.kevacoin.org/ns/html/NVWKk9edEw9K8MRGySwkHx7AWoCUTKDKRF

It is completely possible to develop a Twitter-like app on our platform, also forum apps (maybe a decentralized forum for the crypto community  ). We will showcase some apps later, but it is not hard to start using our platform if you know a little bit about programming!

Anytime!

I know Keva had a fair launch with no premine, and this is a pullback because you lack funding.

You can set a donation fund for this kind of actions, like bounties, exchange listings, other expenses. People will put some money in because is their interest to grow the project and see the price going up.

Thanks for your advice. We will start a discussion on our discord community on how to set up and manage the donation fund. We believe it is better for the community to manage the fund. We can make recommendations on how to spend it, but the community should have the final saying.

Good move @calmstorm and I believe you are right about who should manage the community donation funds, since they are the ones who donates and of course for more transparency.

Our Product Hunt campaign is live!

This is a great opportunity to reach out to the developer community!

[calmstorm]

We have a community fund to support the development and promotion of Kevacoin. The fund can be used for:

1. Bounty campaign.
2. Give-away to developers to try out the platform.
3. Future exchange listing.
4. etc.

The fund belongs to the community, and its management is transparent. We currently only take Kevacoin and please send your donation to this address:
VE6Q8bpn8gRKRoWXFPXMPFZt6juXYyNbe1

Once you give a donation to the above address, please send a note to this channel to let us know (you can stay anonymous if you wish so :grinning: ). Every time we take KVA from the fund, we will also notice the community through this channel.

You can see the transaction of the fund here:
https://explorer.kevacoin.org/address/VE6Q8bpn8gRKRoWXFPXMPFZt6juXYyNbe1

Suggestions and comments about the management of the fund are welcomed!

We just donated 100 KVA to kickstart the community fund!
