[ANN] SilkCoin | New Wallet | NOW on MintPal / Cryptsy | FULL POS

[Wulfcastle]

So are these 2 big announcements coming in today or tomorrow?

Me and my bro's been voting pretty much every waking hour for Silk to reach Mintpal. Should get exciting once it does, volume is too low at the moment. A few BTC's drive it completely south or north.

Hopefully the announcements will be posted today, if not though then tomorrow morning. We just want to make sure everything is ready for this announcement, it's going to be a big one!

[Wulfcastle]

Everyone when you have a chance, take a look at our new introductory video into SilkCoin

Introducing Operation Shock & Awe



What is Operation Shock & Awe?

Operation Shock & Awe is the internal name for a social initiative spearheaded through a series of giveaways from various outlets. The aim of operation shock and awe is to do a blitz of SilkCoin and get as many people as possible to hear about SilkCoin, download our wallet, learn about our features and in the process get listed on further exchanges.


How will Operation Shock & Awe work?

Operation Shock & Awe is a 2-part initiative.

Part 1, which is currently underway and will continue all the way through to the 2nd PoW phase, will be used to spread the word around about SilkCoin and in turn get listed on MintPal. This will provide us some stability and foundation going through to the 2nd PoW phase.

Part 2, which will collerate with the start of the 2nd Pow phase, will be a full on social media blitz to get as many people as possible to hear about SilkCoin. We already have some big crypto names in social media lined up ready for part 2. The names of these social media accounts will be anounced at the start of part 2.

Who are the current participants on Part 1?

All Crypto All Day
CryptoSandwich

Between the 2 above Twitter accounts, they have a following of over 36 000 people. SilkCoin will be tweeted about daily to each of these 36 000 followers.

People have received their multiple Gridseed blades and some of the little farms avail are insane

21m was the biggest rig i ever rented.. right now on betarigs there are tons of 60mhz and lots of 300-500mhz rigs avail

I will be mining no matter what hell i will hook up 2 paper cups and a bit of string if i have to !

Dont have any money to rent so I guess I am going to dig out some paper cups and strings also. Maybe we can network our cups and strings

I have never done any Scrypt mining just X11. What miners will I need for CPU, AMD and NVidia?

Plus I don't think the NSA has papercups or string tapped yet, this might be the ANON we are looking for

[Quantum12]

I don't trust renting rigs from people, they could mine for you and keep some of the coins for themselves. GPU mining with scrypt is dead, its not practical anymore so you would need to buy a script miner from one of the shady scrypt hardware manufacturers(possible delays and they could be mining with their stock, not to mention there are better algorithms these days).

i 100% agree they are mining with their stock .. to many occurrences online of people ordering and getting delays then when the receive difficulty is too high .. need to stop feeding these fake companies. they make a killing Twice .. one off orders.. the 2nd off mining.

 ⚠  ⚠   Wallet Update - HARD FORK - UPDATE MANDATORY FOR EVERYONE  ⚠  ⚠

Mac, Windows & Linux available NOW fully compatible & BEAUTIFUL

As you may all know we finally decided to reduce the block reward in the next POW phase to please the community. There was a lot of arguments for and against the last phase so to please everyone since both sides had very valid points we decided to keep the last phase BUT reduce the block reward to 2500. So there will be 2x less coins generated in the last phase.

Total expected coins at the end of last phase : ~45 million

EVERYONE MUST UPDATE BEFORE POW, else you may send transactions on the wrong chain and lose your coins.
We deleted all pools from the OP, when you updated your client post in the thread we will add you back to the original post and website.

So now let's see this new version, better than words :

We worked very hard to release this update so fast fully compatible on all OS, we will now have more free time to get you updates from the eco-system front !

A white paper is in the writing but the system we're building is so complex the white paper will be quite long.
Just a few word this time, no this is not a darknet more a social network with unique usernames stored in the blockchain and all kind of infos shared via p2p everything working with pub/priv keys.

We'll give more and more infos quite soon so even before the whitepaper you all start to understand the way this system functions, for the moment enjoy the new update and..

Spread the word : MANDATORY UPDATE BEFORE POW BLOCK 50 000 OR RISK LOSING COINS

Go to the "Actions" tab and click on the "Unlock Wallet" action. Unlock your wallet and there he is, in yellow.

[BitcoinKiosk]

no... stop too much innovation!!

The wallet is amazing. no borders, very clean front(i liked borders in the last wallet though). I will miss the old wallet, they are both pieces of work.

[Quantum12]

OMG the camels on staking!!!!!!!! ub3r camel alert!

[FredDag]

Before anyone asks.... the 'Send Coins' link is now a new tab under  'Receive Coins'.

Maybe 'Receive Coins' should be updated to 'Send / Receive' to be more intuitive???
