Bitcoin was supposed to change the world. But it failed?

http://www.vox.com/new-money/2016/11/21/13669662/bitcoin-ethereum-future-explained

Very interesting article about BTC and cryptocurrencies in general. It seems that crypto is not what ordinary people need in everyday life. That's the reason why we can't break the line of mainstream adoption.

Thousands of years old cash is better than BTC?

No, just manipulating mainstream media spreading lies to keep people away from crypto, that's all.

Hey everybody!

Been reading for a while and finally made an account. I think NAV is one of the most exciting projects out there right now. Really like how they are doing the tech for the anon feature.

I apologize in advance if this has been answered. I used the search function but wasn't able to find the details I was looking for. I am hoping to start staking my Nav but am unsure of how to do that. I understand its something with the config type file and there's another step?
If someone is able to break down the process of how to stake I would greatly appreciate it

This nav sale is pretty exciting as well. I did not think it would get this low again. It's good time to buy!

Exactly, people should now stop behaving like herds guided by media and start making better choices for themselves and for others. Corporate owned media outlets are just propagandists. Blockchain technology is the cure to financial frauds.

Corporate media will fail in the age of decentralization. It is just a start.

Got this from wiki:

"As of August 2015, Vox Media, which owns Vox, had received funding valuing it at over $1 billion, thus becoming a startup unicorn. Of this amount, $200 million came from NBCUniversal, $100 million from the venture arm of Comcast (NBC Universal's parent company), and $46.8 million from General Atlantic. Other investors included Accel Partners, Allen & Company, Khosla Ventures, and former AOL executive Ted Leonsis."  ....just to show who controls Vox....

If you are using the windows/mac/Linux wallet is will stake as the coins age (2hrs) automatically. But if you have encrypted your wallet you do need to enter the password with for staking only checked.

Saw this on the bitcoin store. wonder if we can get a NAV poker chip made?

Hi there,

On the Nav Coin website is a guide on how to setup you wallet: http://www.navcoin.org/guides
Follow the full node guide to setup your wallet. Add anonymous servers in the config file for anon sending possibility. This is described in the Navtech Tab. (http://www.navcoin.org/guides/navtech-anon)

Note that those are the anon servers operated by the Nav Coin team. Decentralization is currently in Beta and more servers will come after decentralization. It is up to you to choose trusted servers to handle your anon transactions.

[yaooke]

NAV is really cheap right now. Looks very undervalued to me. Should head to 10k soon again. The roadmap is awesome.

that's because most of the investors see bitcoin only as a currency and doesn't understand the beauty of blockchain technology.

Hi Nav Coiners,

It's time for the weekly update! We are very busy at Nav Coin HQ working on the wallet and anon scripts preparing them for decentralisation. Despite decentralisation being our focus, we have managed to achieve some other pretty cool things this week.

We have seen a large amount of attention come from last week’s release of the Decentralisation Whitepaper and the Nav Coin Merchandise Store. Our retweets and mentions are going through the roof. On twitter alone we’ve had almost 2000 interactions reaching nearly half a million people since the 14th of November.

Nav Coin Coming to LiteBit




LiteBit offers Euro / Crypto trading pairs and will be Nav Coin’s first addition to a large fiat based exchange. LiteBit has over 25,000 users and also more than 600 merchants using their LitePaid service. As well as the LiteBit exchange, this means NAV will also have its second option for merchant gateway with reconciliation options in BTC and Euro.


Go to LiteBit.eu

As soon as I get the launch date for LiteBit I will let you all know but i would expect it to be a matter of days.

Navtech Metadata Obfuscation


Alongside working on the decentralisation implementation we are always looking for ways to improve our Navtech system. One improvement which has been on my agenda is to find further ways to obfuscate possible metadata inference by state level actors. One part of the solution is to add delta to the Navtech throughput to make it exponentially harder to infer cash in cash out.

I am working on a solution which would allow users to send 1 transaction into the Navtech system with a user specified number of output addresses (1 - 6 NAV Addresses). These output addresses are attached to the incoming transaction in the exact same way as when there was just 1 address specified and it is impossible to tell how many addresses were attached without decrypting the data. The Navtech system would then process the transaction and randomly split the input amount between the addresses which were attached. Because the number of attached addresses is user defined, it makes monitoring the throughput exponentially more arduous.


Watch #NAV002-multi-address-anon on Github

Beyond this delta obfuscation, I would also like to program a feature that continuously sends Navtech Anon transactions through the system to help mask inference during times of low throughput. I am hoping to have these things done by the time we decentralise but decentralisation is the priority and we will continue to release updates after the genie is out of the bottle.

Nav Coin Promotional Videos


Planning is complete and we are now moving into the production phase of our Promotional Videos. The strategy is to produce one main “Introduction to Nav Coin” promotional video followed by 3 or 4 whiteboard style videos to explain the various different technologies and features which make Nav Coin awesome. Our writers, animators and editors will be working hard to complete these as soon as possible. We are hoping to have these ready for release in the lead up to the decentralisation of the Navtech network.

Press Release - Nav Coin now with Merchant Backing




The NAV Coin team and NAV community are happy to announce a new merchant gateway integration. 77,000 and growing, online and offline retailers now have the option to use NAV Coin as a payment method. This has been made possible by CoinPayments.net and their retail partners who allowed the public to vote for NAV Coin to join the payment processing platform.

Navtech Infographic


Colvano has put together an amazing infographic which helps to visualise how the Navtech System processes transactions. The infographic has been added to our official Nav Coin media kit on github. Feel free to use this infographic or anything from the media kit however you like. If you want to help create some awesome content like this, join us on slack and share your skills!

Nav Coin Store


We have received quotes back from our printers to design and print the Nav Coin branded t-shirts. They will be launched at $21.50 USD + shipping. I will get a shipping quote tomorrow and then setup pre-orders for the t-shirts. They take 10 working days to print, so you will be able to lock in your order now and we will dispatch them as soon as they are ready. Moving forward we aim to have them in stock so they will be able to dispatch immediately. I will attempt to do the same with the hats when the quote comes through, so keep your eyes peeled and put in your pre-orders when they are available.

Nav Coin Projects


We realise that there have been some projects on our list which have been stuck at near complete for quite some time. Right now our primary focus is on the Navtech decentralisation, but we will continue to try and finish these projects and get them released as soon as possible. Soopy and Shahim should come with an update on the status of the syncing issue, raspberry pi and web wallet in the next few days. So please hold tight and watch for their updates.

As you can see, we are not letting up on the gas pedal here at Nav Coin HQ. We continue to work hard and bring as many cool things to the table every single week we work on this project. We still have some exciting things up our sleeves leading up to the decentralisation of the Navtech network so stay tuned!

Talk Soon,
Craig.

Thanks for the update, Pakage. Great to see the dedication of the NAV team is still intact.

Beyond this delta obfuscation, I would also like to program a feature that continuously sends Navtech Anon transactions through the system to help mask inference during times of low throughput. I am hoping to have these things done by the time we decentralise but decentralisation is the priority and we will continue to release updates after the genie is out of the bottle.

So I guess I got the answer to the question I asked a few weeks ago  .

Could it also be helpful to allow a user that prefers anonimity over transaction speed, to indicate this when making the transaction so its transaction can be stored in a queue inside the decentralized anon system waiting for more transactions to arrive and once this queue is full a reshuffle of order happens and then the decentralized anon system starts making all these transactions ?
