Is there anything on the short term horizon aside from stealth-oriented features? I would love to see more focus on business use cases, features that improve ease of adoption by consumers, etc.

Open Bazaar anonymous market place.

Question: Where is the Google Play release?

Perhaps an update from the dev team on this would be helpful as this was promised a while ago.

Probably strategy. I think with so much good news this week, as the confirmation in mintpal V2, open bazaar and others, they decided to postpone the release in few days on google play to not get a very big space with nothing new until the launch of the new wallets and features in October.

It might have to do with stealthsend coming out too...   maybe that will be used for mobile instead of stealthcoins?

wish i had more btc to buy!

This coin got on mintpal and 24 hours later everyone is nitpicking the little things.

Why don't you guys ask these questions in private and offer help if you can? You are basically feeding the trolls with stuff like this.

It's perfectly fine to publish your own android app and not go through google play. You can find this information on the google site. The app works fine, so why rally around this one point?

good coin,yeah

StealthCoin Mention on DeepDotWeb - the media hub for underground commerce!

A Dark Horse

Many question why ring signatures are not simply added to Bitcoin’s codebase. According to Bitcoin core developer gmaxwell, ring signatures are possible, but present challenges. A new arrival in the arena of anonymous crypto-currences, StealthCoin (XST), promises to add ring signatures to the Bitcoin codebase with StealthSend, which is still in development. According to the StealthSend whitepaper (https://www.dropbox.com/s/do4urdefwoungjz/Stealthsend-Whitepaper-Brief-201409.pdf?dl=0), StealthSend transactions using ring signatures of 100 keys will only require about one third the space of similar CryptoNote transactions, but give the same level of privacy protection. This savings is achieved through the use of the use of so-called “Chandran Signatures”, and innovations related to the selection of the keys used for the ring signatures. In StealthSend, key selection is based on four numbers: two random numbers (called “nonces”), one number that reduces the difficulty of selecting the keys by specifying a subset of all possible keys, and one number to specify the size of the ring. Thus, the nonce key selection specifies any set of randomly selected keys using only 32 bytes of storage.Applied to CryptoNotes, the nonce key selection proposed for StealthSend would lead to a space savings of about 30% for future transactions.

If successful, Stealthsend will have an obfuscated blockchain similar to CryptoNotes while utilizing the well established bitcoin protocol. Additionally, it will also offer a significant reduction in storage.
To avoid the memory-expensive proofs required by an anonymous proof-of-stake coin, StealthSend will be a proof-of-work coin. StealthSend coins will be created by rewarding holders of StealthCoin at a 1:1 ratio in a proof-of-burn conversion. In other words, to get one StealthSend coin, a StealthCoin holder would have to burn one StealthCoin. After the proof-of-burn conversion, the remaining 15% of the total money supply will be emitted via proof-of-work, using a smooth emission algorithm.

Decentralized Dark Markets

In addition to Stealthsend, the Stealthcoin team recently announced that they plan to support Open Bazaar, which is an anonymous, decentralized marketplace. With the closings of Silk Road and many other Bitcoin commerce sites, a decentralized solution to an anonymous marketplace would fill an important niche.

Open Bazaar promises to be such a solution. It is an open-source project touting many innovations that improve on traditional markets, including a reputation system based on proof-of-burn pledges, which allow users to burn Bitcoin in exchange for reputation. Released under the permissive open source MIT License, the Open Bazaar project plans to launch before the end of 2014.

nice update,great team behind

[RadDragon]

Open Bazaar ... including a reputation system based on proof-of-burn pledges, which allow users to burn Bitcoin in exchange for reputation.

That doesn't sound like a good filter.  It will just tell you who has money and who doesn't.  A great scam artist could burn a fraction of his earnings and be considered legit.

Very interesting article from the authority on Deep Web content. I'm so psyched to be on the ground floor for something this huge!

[rocoro]

How is conversion from stealthcoins to stealthsend going to work?

Will there be a limited period to convert them ? 

[bangomatic]

Yawn... number one in volume on bittrex... again. oh look a new 10k floor is being established... Yawn...

It's lonely at the top lol

sit and hold people sit and hold  

LMAO... no more being lonely...

Sorry. No troll feeding intended. I have an IOS phone so I was just interested to see this somewhere. It's not a big deal if the app works fine, but I just wanted to see for myself.

This is door to success. It will make huge impact on XST.

[btc14]

How long did it take you guys for your wallets to stake? I had my wallet synced for 11 days and only had around 150 coins stake. I have a bunch of transactions that say generated but not accepted, mined.

Does it matter if I took some coins out my wallet? Will I still get the original amount that were in my wallet or will my wallet not stake as many?

I think this is good and huge new for XST, Stealthcoin have been noticed and acknowledge by the big boys in coding in this crypto industry. We should see #10 marketcap when Stealthsend and OpenBaazar succeed in implemented with Stealthcoin.

In the meantime enjoy;
