I'll donate .1 btc for the block explorer. Do you want me to send it to the badass.sx btc escrow?

You know me, always up for matching donations.  I will be sending .1 btc also.

It appears faucet has been robbed.  

The builder forgot to encrypt.   He will send me back btc paid to build dice game, and stolen silk.

 He is very sorry and i believe has taken the honorable route to pay back the losses and cost for the build.

  Moving forward, dice game and faucet will be pulled down.  I will refund donors.  Please post what you donated including your txid and sc address and i will send back to you.

   Believe beyond my donations which was the majority there is approx 13k silk to be refunded to donors.  

  If in the event that this was not just a random theft and an attempt to prove the poor security of the faucet, whoever has taken the silk perhaps has earned themselves a security bounty..?
   Please return the stolen silk to the escrow address post or pm if you feel the need to discuss further.

   I do apologize for trusting a random invite for a service build and if anyone has security expertise to test new service builds please pm me to test security on all new service builds before release.
   Unfortunately everyone in the dev team was focused on the completion of the client and we only did quick testing on faucet.  It would not have been thought that a build would not have been encrypted..
   i apologize for the results but will obviously refund donors personally as stated.

arteleis, You don´t need to refund my donation. Send to the devs ok

Thanks,

Do you know when a iOS version will be available?

[sparc0]

Thanks,

Hi, priority are desktop OS, maybe mobile in a second time...

[arteleis]

Thanks,

  We are looking into hive and raxe.  Key initiative is the ability to load paper wallets into skinnable mobile wallets and ultimately load into debit cards for pos integration.

  Currently in talks with both. If there other options available please post here.

  Please review.  Not 100 percent yet.  We will be removing all reference of relaunch, old silkcoin, new silkcoin, previous devs, new devs and soon will leave the The Grand Bazaar in a secure caravan moving towards the future.

  We are Silkcoin.  We are the Devs.  We are the Community.

  If the community as a whole is not ready for marketing or other purposes to leave behind the explanation of previous devs relaunching new devs etc.. then please post the disagreement and possible solution.

  As we making the site.  We suddenly realized the first reference was an explanation of old devs.. i believe this made us nauseous.  Lol  but surely a debatable decision based on marketing.

  The question is.  When do we leave the relaunch behind.  When does the takeover end.  When do we become Silkcoin?

I dont think we are a relaunch or a takeover, we are more like a community revolution, doesnt matter who the old devs were, what was created is a strong community and thats all that matters, silkcoin belongs to everyone, you are Silkcoin, I am Silkcoin, Silkcoin belongs to everyone!

Below is a concept ive made of a paper wallet using the GDN wallet as a template.
Its by no means finished and i will tweak a few things, will look good when paper wallets become available.

I dunno about the camel butt, seems to be the first thing I see and somehow I can't focus on anything else.

LOVE! the way it's coming together though!

Haha camel butt..

in other news.  just took a look at richlist..  seems very nicely distributed thus far.  We are doing very well. 
Come a long way from a completely broken coin, frozen exchanges and utter despair..

We already have a superior product from the previous bullshit marketed glory of a shit built coin...

We already have a superior community.

We already have a superior development team.

Rise.  No one has seen anything yet from us.  We just whispering.  Silk in the Wind.

Keep buying up the Silk everyone.  Hold it, be proud of what we're building together.

I have never seen what is happening here in crypto...

We are Silkcoin.  Be proud.

The Camel Marches On.

Silkcoin.io:  Love the design. That's cool. A little slow and jumpy on my end.  However, I do not like the copy (content).  I think it is too generic and doesn't adequately portray Silkcoin or reach its audience.  We know what has went on. Most visitors will not.  To start out by saying we'll be transparent, end FUD, etc. would make me skeptical.  Is that what this coin is about.  Is that all?  We are assuming our audience is just as informed as we are and are trying to calm any doubt. I get that, but they aren't necessarily informed.  I'm just saying it would raise red flags in my mind.  Then, as I'm researching Silkcoin I'm going to run into all those other forum posts and tweets that blast it as SC the Scam Coin.  Then, I --as the hypothetical visitor--would probably just sigh and go on to another coin.  

I think we need better copy.  First, aside from all the previous FUD, we need to clarify what makes Silkcoin stand apart from all others, even Bitcoin.  We have a cool wallet, sure. Why does it need bells and whistles?  To make it more user- and commerce-friendly?  We just not sharing who and what we are and the direction or goal we are trying to achieve.  Perhaps that isn't clear to most of us.  But, we NEED to know and clearly state it.  I get this:

We're Silkcoin.  We're innovative.  We innovate stuff. We have countless innovations but can't give you a bulleted list of our top 5.   We're relentless in pursuing transparency and trust with crypto tech because it will benefit us, the community.  Screw all the outsiders.  But, we will let you pay to vote for stuff in our wallet and vote for what we should do...because, uh, we don't really seem to be really working toward a goal right now, so why not? Besides, that's a new trend... to vote.  Lot's of coins are  doing it and that's what makes us different?

We invite you to question us, but we're not about to link you to our forum or offer you a link that will tell you how we got scammed by our first dev team. Or, how we joined together through all the FUD going around and decided that we liked the concept of Silkcoin and where it was supposed to have been headed and formulated a community takeover.  There's not link to our story, or the perseverance, vision or talent that we've pulled together...as a community.  

Sorry, if I sound like an asshole.  I'm really not trying to.  But, we need to put our best foot forward, and the content on the website is just to general and empty.  It sounds like the same old empty promises on other coins.  

We need to solidify who and what silkcoin is, where it is going, what it hopes to do.  Hell, we want to be the new dollar that everyone uses to buy Big Macs, Nikes, Hondas, bubble gum, concert tickets, and all things buyable don't we?  Big goal, but Bitcoin is making progress.

I think the content posted on page one of our forum should be utilized, in a pinch, to build up the website until we can have a rewrite that articulates who and what we are and how we really are working to be different and accessible to the general public. What is going to make us valuable in the world economy?  The dollar is backed by faith and trust, true.  It's also freaking easy to spend.  We need a plan to get there.  That's when everyone will want to buy silkcoin.  

Just my two silkcoin on the site.  But, it looks awesome.  The paper wallets look awesome too.  Man, I hope this doesn't sound too harsh.  Someone here wrote the copy for the site, and I'm not putting you down at all. You do well.  It's just that we, as a community during all the upheaval, might not yet be clear on some of the points, and I think that is why it seems so vague.
