When will the new wallet be ready?
You know, I probably should have announced that right away.
The update will take place in 3 stages. Here are details taken directly from yesterday's IRC conversation:
Orangecoindev
"1. ticker for client update (currently being developed by our very own StudentWiskunde
2. 1 btc to roll over to ybcoin fork and eliminate and POS issues in the future
3 1 btc to implement and hard forks to things such as rewards, block times etc. This is really the best and wisest way to address your issues.
1 btc before, 1 after. Ticker when its done. First client update with checkpoints 48hrs. First client update 1 week later to ybcoin fork. 2nd client update 1 week later to fork any remaining variables. usually will be no delays but sometimes problems may occur. At anytime it does you would be informed asap."
In summary, it will take about 2 weeks total, if all goes well. I'm paying the 2 BTC out of pocket, but if anyone's feeling grateful,
donate to the cause.
