there are a few rogue nodes that somehow got a hold of a test version that had debug packet sending and this is probably causing higher load so if anybody downloaded from the dev repository, that is bad version, please get new one or just run the official release thanks Is there any way to remove said rogue nodes, still using to much data. I'm on satellite and only get 30 gig a month and once I've used it that's it, I struggle to even get email Jon |

Lots of hold hold hold. yes, that is what Ive been doing.
But how does that help me as an investor in this coin.
How does that help spread usage of this coin
Selling doesnt help spread usage either. I think BTCD will be in pretty high demand just so people can stake with it and get free teleporting for the commodity coins, like bitcoin Think of owning BTCD like owning a membership that allows access to valuable services. Sort of like a passport, the more BTCD you have the more things you can do. BerkshireHathaway stock is primarily a HODL stock, possibly the original HODL. It seems have done quite nicely over the years James I agree selling doesnt help spread usage. But actively trying to promote teh coin outside of the tech lab does. Anyway, I see now this is not a coin intended for such usage. But isnt that what Crypto currency was supposed to be about? I think BTCD will be in pretty high demand just so people can stake with it and get free teleporting for the commodity coins, like bitcoin
This I don't understand at all. How can owning BTCD give me commodity coins? I need a reason I can understand to continue buying these coins and holding on to them. I just thought they were a truly anonymous coin and for me that signalled an edge over some. Thats why I started buying them. How much does it matter if you have USD, EUR or YEN? If you have $1000 worth, then other than hassle of converting, it is all the same isnt it? So, if you have 1 BTC or 1 BTC worth of BTCD, what is the difference? As far as the buying power (ignoring conversion overheads) no difference. So, crypto is crypto is crypto, with automatic low overhead conversions, you should be able to view crypto not as any specific currency, but more a vector of possible currencies. OK, that came out too complicated. Do you know of the pens that have different colors? You click the red thing to make it write red, the blue for blue, etc.? I see crypto like that. If you want BTC, click BTC, if you want BTCD click BTCD. So, fiat -> crypto (of any color) Now, if you want quick conversion less access to do purchasing, BTC seems to make sense. maybe for highly traded coins with enough liquidity for your uses and low spreads, you can keep it in other coins that have better properties than BTC. Once such property is 5% per year staking. BTC mining has a built in ~8% deflation. Since not everybody is staking, with BTCD if you are staking you are actually getting net positive interest, I estimate 1% to 2%. BTCD will also be getting some revenue sharing, but it will also let you teleport itself and other coins for free. It gives you access to InstantDEX, privacyServer is built right in, etc. BTCD is more than just a coin, it is hard to explain in few words. As it is gaining a lot of power relatively quickly, I am expecting it to grow in value faster than BTC for a while. So, in addition to other benefits I think medium term price appreciation is another. I leave to you if you believe these are enough reasons to hodl, if not I am sure there are others ready to buy from you James I appreciate you taking the time to explain things. Not entirely getting it just yet, but in time Im sure I will. I will hold on to what I have for a while, but will be taking a step back from buying more. The reason for that is I'm all about empowering people, the regular folks on the street, protecting privacy/liberty etc etc. Free them from the fiat banksters and their puppets politicians. Get them using alt coins. Whether yo believe this or not - I am not really in this to make money. Havent made anything from Alt coins so far anyway. But thats not to say Im happy to lose investments. Ok carry on folks  |

Is the Mac wallet fully functioning properly yet?
other than a slightly higher reject rate for staking, it works fine for me. |

Please revert to official release. |

Is there anything special I need to do to get a Mac wallet to run?
Do I need to make a configuration file or something?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I dont mean to offend any of the USA peoples, they are best peoples, it is just the govt has run amok and gone totally power grabbing crazy. What is this eminent domain things? They just take your private land and give to real estate developer since the neighborhood really, really, needs more shopping stores
As an American I would have to agree with this. The USA is a great country while the government has spun out of control. As for eminent domain, I could have lived on my familys' piece of land since 1600 and as soon as they think they have a 'use' for it, I'm gone  |

Ok carry on folks James, do I understand things right? BTCD is a true 'investment' because it yields a return; as opposed to something like BTC which yields nothing for the majority of owners, therefore holders are speculating if they are in it for capital gain only. Buying BTCD is similar to buying shares in a privacy company. Owners/Stakers will always get their return and hopefully capital value will increase. A share in this privacy business is currently $2. BTCD is an 'infrastructure' crypto as opposed to something like Ripple/Stellar which are day to day spending coins and holders are not owning them primarily for capital gain. Like cash. Coinmarketcap is confusing because it's not like we are dealing with traditional businesses. Some of those 'coins' are really share prices of the underlying concept and some are currencies, so to compare them side by side is confusing. To say that BTCD (privacy/service provider) will overtake Litecoin (currency) isn't really relevant is it. Two different entities. |

just made a test release of MGW that supports mgwBTCD
still needs some GUI and installers to make it easy, but cross off another item from my todo list
once this gets tested and approved, it will allow for rapid inclusion in InstantDEX trading
Maybe I will encrypt the telepods next

Been reading up in this thread about this coin and i think this is solid stuff. Pointed 2TH towards the xpool and are considering adding another 4TH. Only downside seems to be i missed the release  Thanks a bunch! Payouts are daily M-F after 7 PM EST. Cheers http://btcd.xpool.caJust added some new coins to SHA which just jumped up the profitability. Would be good to get on this now. Aye the SHA multipool seems to be doing quite good so far to be honest  Good thing you masked mined coins with .xXx. |
