Linux wallet [Coming soon]
i wait for it.
We haven't considered Linux binaries a huge priority thus far because it's relatively easy to compile, and building binaries that work on every Linux distribution is not trivial.
is this coin only a BTC side project? test if 0.5% fee can still support the mining? or u devs will offer sth new to frac?
waiting for the answer,,,,,,
And as for a quick update as to what I've been up to, as primary developer.
First, I successfully reproduced the safe mode bug that happened at the planned fork of Fractalcoin on Bitcoin 0.9. This was reported to them, and is considered a minor security issue for bitcoin. (look for my name in the next release notes
) Also we will be merging in their fix when it is completed and tested.
Second, hey, have you tried Fractalcoin v1.2 beta yet!? This update includes a "defaultsubtractfees" option, which should greatly ease the migration of services to supporting percentage based fees. Everyone keeps asking for updates, but conveniently miss this update.
Third, a much more ambitious effort is underway to attempt to make multisig easy to use from the graphical wallet. Our network was made ready for it with
this commit. This change that was put in before the last fork ensures elaborate pay-to-scripthash will be counted as standard transactions by the network. This allows transaction forms that have not been imagined yet, as well as allowing multisignature transactions using up to 15 keys. Fractalcoin is the only coin with this supported. Even though it was pulled upstream from bitcoin, it will be years before enough miners and relays on the bitcoin network upgrade to support it. So, as multisig becomes more and more pervasive, Fractalcoin will be perfectly positioned and ready for the next generation of online wallets and services utilizing multisig.
Fourth, no we will not be adding anonymous, tor, stealth, pos, X42, fancy UI, IPO, PoT, or whatever the most recent fad is. We will add features other coins add only when it suites the direction of Fractalcoin, as well as being proven to be secure.
Also, like everyone else has said, we are in IRC all the time. If you have questions or concerns, join our growing community there. We try to answer questions, and post important things here. However, because it's a single thread, maintaining a coherent discussion on a topic is very difficult. This is why we encourage people to branch out from this forum to our reddit or IRC channel.
And one last bit, remember it's almost bonus day! prepare your miners. There are around 6,000 blocks left, or 4 days, until we enter the 40 FRAC block rewards for 1 day. Don't miss it!
