What does the poll even mean?  Is this coin real?

What does the poll even mean?  Is this coin real?

I would ignore the poll.

What do you mean by 'real'?

EDIT: Just turned midnight here and just today 33 commits have been pushed to the DarkSilk GitHub......and I am still up and at it

And you got Rynomster working on this project? Unbelievable!  I see you to cryptovote .. this coin is stacked with talent! Can't wait!

Rynomster has been really helpful getting the Gitian files sorted out and will be assisting me further with some other elements.

Mammix assisted with a couple of small bits to ensure Tor compatibility/build.

Bishop came along and tidied up my work (can't be fast and clean all the time).

Cryptovote has been porting over my changes/fixes to his fork of Cravecoin and assisting with certain elements such as InstantX.

All of these developers have been and I am sure will be very helpful, many thanks to your continued work

When is the expected release date?

Looking to have all the coding completed within 4-6 weeks.

We will then enter pre-launch to get the word spread and ensure a fair release.

All that is left (lol, all that is left) to do is a load of updates to Shadowchat, added functionality to the DarkSilkMarket, PoW mining fixes and then just a bug sweep.

Oh, did I mention the fact we are launching with an HTML5 wallet?

[nzminer]

Really starting to shape up well, keep up the good work!

Cant wait to launch!

[SLievensDRKSLK]

Still a few hurdles to get over.

This is not a poke at Crave but a poke at its code as I am starting to wonder how they made it through their PoW phase smoothly (that's if they did, I am unsure).

So as you can assume by what I have just said I am looking at the PoW code with Rynomster to nail all the issues.

We have also realised there are minor memory leaks within the wallet as well which need sealing up.

Then once these are done the HTML5 frontend/GUI can be looked at for launch.

For anyone interested in following development via Telegrams new Channels update.  We have started a DarkSilk channel.

telegram.me/darksilk

once we get closer to launch will start tweeting this publicly on twitter.

also note that all posts on this channel will remain intact for all new users of the channel.  So anyone at anytime will be able to view the full development history channel from the begininng.  (-;
