The ideas are inspiring, yes. But how will they transform themselves into technical innovation to help Silk rise above the competition in more than words?

I've been emailing with Arteleis towards hopefully fixing my corrupted wallet.dat file. I've tried everything that's been suggested, and believe the fault has been isolated to my wallet.dat. Some process that writes to it has probably corrupted it. The devs will examine my wallet and debug window and hopefully will be able to address whatever the cause of the issue was in the next qt update. With any luck at all, this problem will be fixed sometime soon. On an unrelated note, make sure you check out this great article on coindesk regarding altcoins like Silkcoin: http://www.coindesk.com/need-altcoins-can-get/?utm_source=CoinDesk+subscribers&utm_campaign=7d9d8daacf-EMAIL_RSS_CAMPAIGN&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_74abb9e6ab-7d9d8daacf-78909885We are doing a lot of things right. As the software becomes more stable, etc., our focus will have to shift into PR for us to be successful. More to discuss on that later, when the time comes. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The camel marches on!!!

This is the newest windows beta. https://github.com/mbishop75/silkcoin/releases/tag/v1.1.0.17-betaas well here is the newest linux bin for any of yall nix users https://github.com/mbishop75/silkcoin/releases/download/v1.1.0.16-beta/silkcoin-qt-1.1.0.16-debian.tar.gzPlanning on the new final release this week sometime. So far the issues with previous 1.1.0.12 installer version have all been ironed out except for penguins corrupt wallet.dat. Which are taking care of today. In regards to competition, we are the GUI leaders in the industry. I don't think any coin has the interface we have unless parts of it were forked from Silk. The voting system was ready to be implemented, going on a login/2fa auth system.. But in the spirit of cryptocurrency, I believe we have found a much better way to run the voting and polls. Looking to have it integrated along with a couple other cool features not yet seen in other wallets. The dev who designed the voting system has been away this week, so upon his return, I believe we are ready to integrate with the new features proposed by the team. For now check out 1.1.0.17 and please report any problems if they arise. So far we haven't heard any issues with 1.1.0.16, and have done a lot more upgrades regarding 17. Yes. The Camel Marches On. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Can't wait to see those number ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I have put some thought into this, and figure that a good goal to set is to support the SilkConomy reaching a $6B market capitalization within 10 years. This would mean a price of somewhere around $100 per coin, conservatively. This goal is achievable. After the software is in a more stable form (meaning doesn't require users to update it more than once every several months or so, and updates are quicker/easier to do), perhaps we should have a discussion breaking down what steps must be taken to achieve this goal. Then individual users can decide, based on their interests and backgrounds, which step(s) they can support to help achieve this goal, and how. But we'll talk more about it in the near future. I've already done a lot of thinking about this to get the conversation started. But I don't want to detract from more important developments right now.

I've already done a lot of thinking about this to get the conversation started. But I don't want to detract from more important developments right now. We will have notifications for updates built into the system soon, seeing as though as much as we all think bct is the voice to the world.. it is not necessarily the case. There are a few routes to complete notifications for updates, and we are on top of all of them. In regards to cryptocurrency as a whole at a current 10b dollar market cap, it is tough to say what the future will bring. Already the systems of crypto are far superior to fiat, but it will be the crypto community as an entirety working together that could make it a world standard of payment. With the coming and current integrations of decentralized marketplaces, and crypto philosophy being put into action we do as a crypto society have the possibility of reaching individual marketcaps like you describe. If not, we will see the market eat itself over and over again, as the same fiat gods laugh at our tiny revolution, buy it, turn us against each other and own it. In this case, the entire philosophy of crypto will die. And the federal reserve will issue us our bitcoins, from their miners in space. lol So far the general mannerisms of silk post collapse, are very well.. with a lack of words to describe it, SILKY. We are all very intelligent, very honest, very inquisitive, very forward thinking, well mannered, .. well the list can go on. I haven't personally seen this kind of community in other threads. We are truly Silk. And have stabilized the price at 5 times the value of the crash, through what was previously called a group of rag-tag grass roots doomed to fail ragamuffins... lol We do not have a CEO. Refuse to have a CEO to kybosh the philosophy of crypto. Although in the absence of a fully automated democratic system, we are functioning well as a community run coin. I believe the common agreement is to form a foundation or in this case a Council. Perhaps entitled The Silk Council. It will be comprised of all the current active contributors and programmers, and be responsible for all the payments to developers with comm funds and be publicly displayed for every investor or inquiry to ensure comm funds are spent correctly. With the integration of the voting system soon to be incorporated, we will surely be able to devise a system that is fully automated, and exist as an autonomous system, with no centralized figure or head, but still be able to operate as an extremely intelligent and cohesive society in near exact reference to Jacqul's post, about the enigma or cellular pre-man intelligence of the slime mold. The collective unconsciousness exists in all of us, and with the current consciousness of the Silk community, we are leagues and bounds above the majority of what is available in this strange and obscure crypto market. seriously watch this http://www.ted.com/talks/heather_barnett_what_humans_can_learn_from_semi_intelligent_slime_1 relate the idea to the qualities of physical silk, and then look around at the community, the philosophy of crypto and decentralization, and the history of mankind.
