[XC][XCurrency] Decentralised Trustless Privacy Platform / Encrypted XChat / Pos

[Driv3n]

Am I actually invested in some kind of future "official" small company that will be focused on engineering privacy back into our everyday lives on the world wide web? That's kind of the sense I'm getting seeing the work done here. It's really amazing. Well done!

Absolutely, everyday that goes by this looks less like an alt and more like a decentralized, potentially mainstream, life changing platform and currency.

Thus far we've got:

- XChat

- The TOR Stick

Well we now have...

XChat that connects to TOR nodes!

This is the new version of XChat (2.47g), downloadable now:

- Windows

- Ubuntu

How to connect to TOR:

When you install it, you'll find "xcurrency.conf" in the installation folder that you selected during the installation.

Copy "xcurrency.conf" to %appdata%/roaming/xcurrency and you're good to go!

About how it connects to TOR:

XChat over TOR works just fine with other nodes, whether these are on TOR or not.

XChat over TOR is not as secure as XChat in the TOR Stick, which has its own node built-in. Instead it connects to external TOR nodes. But it's pretty intensely private anyway.

See you all tomorrow for the TOR Stick release...

I like the surprise announcement, gets the adrenaline rushing

I can't wait for tomorrows update, everyday this gets better, and I know we're just warming up.

The alt scene is absolutely scary now.   Did you guys hear about zipcoin being a total scam where it's not only a pump and dump, but it actually go and actively steal other coins wallets?  

So... PSA:  Encrypt your wallet, people!

XC is unlike 99% of the altcoins.  It has a professional dev team and a real plan to make some impact in delivering privacy back to the people.

Ha I had no idea that had happened... everyday theres some bs scam or hack going on.... good thing my wallets encrypted and backed up on 27 different usb drives, 6 hard drives, private keys drilled into brass and in a fire proof, water proof, state of the art biometric vault that requires fingerprint, retina scan, and voice recognition to open.

Why not buy from Mintpal.com? They have a cheaper exchange fee.

[Artoodeetoo]

Because they were cheaper at crypt

Yes, that is what I have been saying from the beginning (I've been here since May) This isn't an ordinary "coin" it's an investment in a company that is building a decentralized privacy platform. Hold your coins for the long term.

In July Thor detected and patched a "relay early" traffic confirmation attack that was ongoing since February. It might have been the researchers that canceled their Black Hat 2014 speech about deanonymizing Thor with a 3k$ budget (not sure if monthly or over 5 months). I don't use Thor but a great read nevertheless:

Yeah, that was a bummer.

Nice to know that the TOR Stick doesn't use exit nodes and so is invulnerable to that attack. ;-)
