Morning all
After staying awake for 23 hours I've now got a few hours' sleep and would like to do my best to field questions about Rev 2.
First off, I am sincerely sorry for having let you all down. I appreciate how a late, testnet-only release has injured your faith in XC, in the team, and in ATCsecure. We're very sorry for both what happened and for how we handled it. Down to the last 30 minutes we all believed, as most of you did, that the release would come out in time. If we had not thought this, then we would have informed you as early as possible about a delay and taken the hit. But we did believe it would be released. Unfortunately there was a single issue with the mainnet compile, that Dan identified and understood, yet that would take too long to resolve.
The broader reason for not having released on time are circumstances over the weekend that have nothing to do with development, severe in nature, and private to the affected person, which unavoidably took up the majority of this person's time. It's frustrating, but in a small team these sorts of events have a large effect. Nonetheless we were confident that the release would be out in time, but some minor details (and our complete unwillingness to risk your funds) prevented it.
But what we have achieved is nonetheless a world first. Until today, there has never been a decentralised trustless mixer. And now there is, in the app you downloaded today.
I've been saying for a while that XC is not semi-centralised, therefore no "security bottleneck" in the form of supernodes.
Well, with Rev 2 every singe wallet is automatically an Xnode. It's completely decentralised.
This should address people's questions about how to set up an Xnode in Rev 2. It's set up already. Just start testing it, and track what it does in the blockchain.
Updates will be very frequent and the app will go onto the mainnet in due course.
We're also unveiling the promised announcements today and tomorrow, and they're no less positive.
Enjoy what's good about the situation: a world-first that in fact surpasses the Xnode/normal node distinction, which is better than what we stated we'd release. This, plus the fact that XC's fundamentals are the same, plus the news we have to share with you later today, paints a very optimistic picture.
Ask me as many questions as you like. I can't promise to be able to answer all of them, since I'm not the dev, but I'll try.
Humbly,
Arlyn
Every wallet is an Xnode, but do you need to have a certain amount of coins in the wallet to receive the benefits of being an Xnode? |

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Can't understand why we are tanking with all this incredible news. I'm still holding but wow!
Not really tanking, I suspect we will rebase now around 200k - 250k.... |

Dan can you explain how to test Rev.2 on the test net, and when to wait Rev.2 on the main net? May be short FAQ? Working on the tutorial now. Any chance of releasing a node or two before faq? Need to stat mining on test net before I can test. 71.174.70.215 |

I think because the dumpers put a lot of capital out of the market and it takes some time till other investors hear about the news and invest some fresh BTCs...just a matter of time |

Hi all
As promised, we will be making another announcement today.
This announcement is tech-related, and will happen at 2pm EST.
It's not related to Rev 2, it's new. However it has no impact on the pace of Rev 2's coming onto the mainnet.
You have reason to be excited.

Debating on dropping your release early to the people..... Thats what happens when you fuck up on announcements and dont keep and Air-tight team.... I'm glad to hear the head of PR is back so i can personally say you are awful at your Job (real world your ass would have been canned on the spot)... Like I said the last TIME you botched the announcement learn from it... but u obviously didn't.. And before you retards call me a Troll check back and see how long i have been dedicated follower of XC since before the last rise and FUD crash and i stayed on board through the last FUD crash.... All props to DAN... PR get your FUCKING head out of the SAND... Not only do i major in marketing but I work in the corporate marketing world so I am very analytical on our PR... O and if you don't believe i Know the announcements.... BatBottt leaked them to Mr. Boh..... so yeaa were deciding on what to do with the screen shot.. Next time make sure your inner circle doesnt have leaks
wtf are you talking about you tard? |

You call yourself a professional in marketing yet you are talking about pre-releasing the announcement. I am sure you do things like that all the time in the real world..... ...... ...... ...... ....... |

Who the hell do you think you are and where do you earn the right to talk to people in that way? Arrogant is hardly the word for it. |
