The price in altmarkets is very low right now. I understand that you just got listed. But you started low here. What are the strategies from the dev's end to boost your value in the trading market? Aside from looking in mn site listings, how about real application of your coin? That might help in elevating the value of your coin.
I agree 100%. For now I see the real application being in used for online payments as that was what the code was designed for. Need to make some changes to make it more appealing for this use-case. Any changes would still have to be voted on and approved by the community, but as I see it the block time of 128 seconds is to high for transactions, and I'd also like to see the transaction fee lowered considerably. If this is the road that we are going to head down then we need to ensure that the coin is ready for use rather then trying to make it fit as it is. Happy to discuss further in Discord.

The poll was completed with the majority opting for no change to the PoW + Masternodes rewards. No plans for changing the rewards in the future. I'll update the Roadmap now, thanks for pointing this out.

Just an FYI to all that the BitCreds Explorer is offline as we are rebuilding it to include Masternode stats. Will update this thread when it's back online again, should be less than a week.

Bitcreds' new explorer is live, but still indexing the last couple of months of chain, should be up to date within a few days. https://explorer.bitcreds.org/

Here are the results of the Bitcreds MN Collateral increase poll - As such, we are working on v1.6.0 now which will have the MN collateral increased from 5000 to 50000 at block 850,000. UPDATE - Code for v1.6.0 is now released, compiled versions coming in the next 24 hours.

BitCreds version 1.6.0
BitCreds version 1.6.0 has been released! This is a compulsory update that includes a hard fork at block 850,000 that will change the masternode collateral from 5,000 BCRS to 50,000 BCRS. The code doesn't enforce MN payments so it is expected that the first few hundred block past block 850,000 will not include any MN rewards as there won't be any MN's enabled at that point. Please update all your nodes ASAP. Documentation can be found at https://bitcreds.org/#documents
https://github.com/Bitcreds/BCRS/releases/tag/v1.6.0.0

All nodes currently on v1.5.0 or older are now being banned for 1 year from all my nodes due to the upcoming fork at block 850,000. To be unbanned contact me in Discord.

Hard Fork at block 850,000 completed. The masternode collateral required is now 50,000 BCRS. Website and all documentation has been updated to reflect this.

Hello there fellow cryptocurrency enthusiasts, I would like to tell you that I have returned to the project as the main developer and I am bringing some good news with me regarding the general direction the team has decided upon for Bitcreds. The project will extend to include more than just the blockchain infrastructure and this is where IPFS, the InterPlanetary File System, comes in to play. You will receive more details about how exactly we're going to merge IPFS and blockchain together in the following announcements but be aware that for now most of them will come through our Discord server. Here is the invite link in case you missed it: https://discord.gg/M2pyPDrWe're going to change some of the main parameters of the network to better suit us for the future and for the new direction, we are going for a lower annual inflation (lower block rewards and an increased block time), a hardened Argon2d algorithm and a lower Masternode collateral as currently the number of possible MNs on our network is too small. This new direction also implies an eventual change in the overall indentity of the project. Last thing you might want to know is that the new functionalities will imply burning of coins and you will have to burn them in order to use the new services we're going to offer.

Could you provide a timeline? When can we expect all these innovations? And will there be a marketing campaign? It's no secret - few people know about the project, you need to convey information to the masses, but this requires money and a certain budget. How do you plan to solve this problem?

I stated on Discord that this was more of a pre-announcement and that for now this is the only information I'm willing to offer. The timeline depends a lot on how many people join me on this quest so to speak. For now, we will be working on the next big release of information about the project and I will continue to develop the codebase myself so that we have a solid starting point. There's a saying that goes along the lines that first you should lead/help yourself and then others will follow therefore after the following announcements I plan on taking some new people with me on this endeavour. As a final note, we're mainly looking for C++ and JavaScript developers and I think it will be not just a job for them but something to look up to with a big smile.

What particular use cases in the market are you going to explore this time? What do you think will be your main business to focus with so as to ensure that this platform will not gonna die? Most alts are dying because they can't venture a specific use case successfully. If you can get at least one strong use case in the market, I believe you can survive a lil bit long than others.

I understand your concerns/curiosity when it comes to tackling these real world (existential) problems, but do not forget that projects start out from passion. Andrew2k has been with BCRS from the start but he was never in a leadership role making executive decisions, the project has been adrift from the start. Now that Andrew2k has stepped up we can expect developments with a sense of direction, this is not to say that this project will be a success but it does say that time and effort will be spent. The onus is on him including the entrepreneurial risk that comes with the job. Let's give it some time and see where he leads it.

MANDATORY UPDATE @everyone, new update, this one brings with it changes to several network characteristics that will be applied in a two-step process (two hard forks).
