They Cryptoarticles article states that

‘Instant Sync Technology’ synchronizes with the Pandacoin network immediately, so users don’t have to resort to a lightweight client if they want to see and utilize their Pandacoins immediately, and still be able to earn 2.5% annual interest and help secure the Pandacoin network.

which, if I understand correctly, is wrong.

It's certainly a tad imprecise, but it's not "wrong".

The Instant Sync Tech allows the Pandabank to show your balance instantly, so you don't need to resort to a lightweight client if you want to see and use your Pandacoins right away. That said, it doesn't sync ENTIRELY, so you DO have to wait the whole 5-10 minutes or so before PoS staking begins to occur, but the article merely states that you can SEE and UTILIZE your Pandacoins immediately, which is technically correct.

Oh, I've read it 7 times and kinda get it now. It read it like it's the IST that enables you to stake with a lite wallet.

Anyway, here's my sync
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxsvR47fsyA
I delete the blockchain and it starts syncing at 0:10, and starts Veryfing at 2:35. It's just as if the computer's resources are the limit. Impressive!

I wasn't able to add music to it, but put this in the background

Have fun!

It doesn't.

It just instant-syncs the FULL wallet just enough so that you can see your balance and use the wallet, and THEN it syncs with the rest of the blockchain so you can stake. So it is still the full, core wallet, but it syncs faster than any Lite wallet I've ever seen, used, or heard of

Hi Devs,

First of all thanks for releasing the latest Pandabank, can't wait to try it out. I have a quesion. I have pandabank running on my PC. I have an ARM based NAS, I have downloaded the pandabank source and am building the headless version now. Can I stake 24/7 on my NAS using the headless version? If yes and I import my wallet to the headless version, can I still use the same wallet on the Windows Pandabank? How will staking work then when I'm using my PC playing games or watching videos while Windows Pandabank is running on my PC and the Headless pandabank running on my NAS?

Looking forward to your reply.

so not many people are interested in the 500k PND reward?

I would love to participate but I feel like that would be unfair xD Come to think of it, Ozzke would probably beat me.

Speaking of staking... Two Q's: 1~ May I assume it is safe to keep my wallet running in the background most of the time? And 2~ I notice that often there are only 35 or so active connections to the PandaBank network when I scroll over the icon at the bottom of the Bank frame. Isn't that awfully low? Thank you.

1) Of course it's safe
2) That's not the amount of connections, that's the connections you're in direct contact with. Your connection goes to person B, person B might have 25 or 45 connections in his network and they can (in theory) all be different than yours it's how Peer to Peer works.

Well not a lot of people seem to be interested in it... Sadly. Got mtrycz's fast sync and the fastest windows one is still the same... Slackers

Thanks again, ozzke. I know my naiveté shows, but how else ya gonna learn? This is a really good and supportive forum. I know I'm one lucky duck (Panda) to have found PND when I did. Lovin' it big time.

Oh, did I tell you how over the falls I am about that new hybrid wallet? If I'd a' waited just a little while, I wouldn't have had to gut it out for my original PandaBank Wallet to sync, BUT I feel I was just payin' the necessary dues. Then to have the new little hottie show up just sent me through the roof. An immense and brilliant accomplishment.

[LTListener]

OH MY GOD?! THE UPDATE IS OUT!?

Thanks for the kind words, yes we do believe it's quite revolutionary. We're already working on the next few releases

[cadexn]

OH MY GOD?! THE UPDATE IS OUT!?

you're so late

[ozzke]

thanks for all the kind words everyone (except for cadexn), I really appreciate everyone supporting PND (except for cadexn).

Think about it like this:

Easy to understand: http://pandacoinpnd.org/cryptocrashcourse/  CHECK
Easy to Mine: http://pandacoinpnd.org/about/mine-pandacoin/  CHECK
Easy to Buy: http://pandacoinpnd.org/about/buy-pandacoins/  CHECK
Easy to Use: http://pandacoinpnd.org/about/store-pandacoins/pandabank/  Very CHECK now after this last update

So what's left? Easy to spend!

We've educated people, we've shown them how easy all those previous steps were, but then comes the question: Now what can I do with those Pandacoins?
That's our next major development that bdanyo already showed you a nice little teaser from. 100,000 Merchants sounds very ambitious, but I think we've proven ourselves every time again that we kept our promise.
You will actually be able to use it, to spend it, to buy stuff with it, that's another big thing that's lacking in the current altcoin world.

How will you do it? When will you release it? I think you know us well enough to understand that we're not going to give you a releasedate now. It will come when it will be ready.
I know people in crypto currently have the attentionspan of a goldfish, but stick with us, join the community, help the community and you will not be disappointed. 

shameless bump, I don't write this just for fun

I think there could be, but then it has to be set up properly, what about KYC and AML?
