"Hey all,
we would like to schedule a community online meetup for Q and A. This will be broadcasted live on YouTube. We think there is interest and this is a good timing for that because we have a lot of new people on board.
Please send your questions to me in here so we can prepare.
Will see how many questions we get and when we will schedule the meetup.
Thanks.
Team I/O Digital"

Think of some interesting questions to send the team.

QUESTION "Do you have any businesses lined up to use I/O Coin in the near future?"  (i know tough question...)

That's an easy question. The answer is: "Yes!"

Think of some interesting questions to send the team.

Startups are releasing current web services; DNS, storage, as blockchain technologies. Blockstack, STORJ, Lisk for example have made their APIs accessible to third party developers by releasing packages on NPM accompanied with a well documented API and developer tutorials.  STORJ has the potential to replace an Amazon S3 bucket, there's a well documented API and video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPny2_ehLPU&list=PLEr5Xx0gHvFG55T-_kLKlWosSBw32vP9N by Barbara Liau deploying the STORJ API through widely used Nodejs applications like Express.

I understand I/O Coin has DNS on the blockchain, where A, CNAME and MX records can be created for domain names. Is this technology available for third parties and is there deployment documentation available?

Will I/O Coin offer storage that can be accessed through a JavaScript API?

Are there plans to improve access to I/O Coin technologies for third party developers through well documented JavaScript APIs?

In the future, is  I/O Coin going to offer a blockchain database solution?

Look forward to your response, Maurice

--> yes this is available when we release DIONS. First through HTML5 wallet, after that through documented API.

Will I/O Coin offer storage that can be accessed through a JavaScript API?
--> yes this is available when we release DIONS. First through HTML5 wallet. Documents can be stored connected to your private key, after that through documented API. Fees needed to store data will be redistributed to the stakers.

Are there plans to improve access to I/O Coin technologies for third party developers through well documented JavaScript APIs?
--> yes. the biggest usage / entry point in the future will be third party apps that want to use Blockchain for their service. We will make it possible that apps can easily connect to our Blockchain

In the future, is  I/O Coin going to offer a blockchain database solution?
--> basically when we release DIONS it is a Blockchain database solution. Data, messaging, alias etc. All AES256 encrypted!

Look forward to your response, Maurice

The line of thought above, along with the practical ins and outs of using the blockchain, are the questions I have.  Want to see it demonstrated, then I can ask more pointed questions. 

[evok3d]

Nice work

What is the PoS terms? How long does it have to be in the wallet? The age etc

[dollarmoney]

Great going....

IOC was one of rare coins not to lose value in terms of BTC during the last pump of Bitcoin. As I understand from the updates more interesting features to be introduced in the future. I have acquired some to hold

Solid project with a bright future.  Never know with coins, but pretty close to a sure bet on this one.

Clear to see $IOC is Solid long term, DIONS will be a BIG success and the stepping stone to even greater developments.

I've downloaded the html5 wallet from IOC website.

But i cannot get it to sync?

Hi,

Please make sure your firewall or anti virus program does not block any connections.
You can also try to replace the peers.dat with the following one: http://www.iodigital.io/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/peers.zip

You need to manually download it using the provided link, unzip it and place the peers.dat in the ~/Library/Application Support/iocoin (for OSX) folder and then run the wallet. The peers.dat also works for Windows wallets.
Windows users have to copy the peers.dat file into the c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\IOCoin folder and run the Win client again.

99% of the time it is your firewall / router or anti virus software preventing the sync.

Second option to kickstart your wallet is to use our bootstrap.
An (official) bootstrap.dat is available to fast track the blockchain sync – up to block 1m (jan 2017). You need to manually download it, unzip it and place the bootstrap.dat in the ~/Library/Application Support/iocoin (for OSX) folder and then run the wallet. The bootstrap.dat also works for Windows wallets.
Windows users have to copy the bootstrap.dat file into the c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\IOCoin folder and run the Win client again.

Loading the bootstrap could take up to 24-48 hours but is a much faster way in syncing the wallet for the first time.

The wallet seems to be “stuck”at the opening screen, but basically it is loading the bootstrap.
This is normal. This can take 24-48 hours. So don’t close the wallet!!

The bootstrap can be downloaded here: https://github.com/IOCoin/iocoin/releases/tag/BootStrap.1M.Block


Cheers,
Richard

Development / Test update:

Hey all,

We have been bugged down with a nagging UI bug that was making the wallet lag when executing transactions. After conducting many hours of trial and error, today we had much success and our latest test have been more promising.

We are now going over the bug list that was submitted by the testers.
Our user interface at the time of it’s inception was written in electron/mithril (JS). Our java dev coded the wallet in a way were he thought that the daemon would be less demanding at making constant calls to the user interface.

DIONS has allot going on in terms of transaction handling in staking rewards, fees, registration etc this making the user interface almost unresponsive at times causing all kinds of strange bugs that are not related to DIONS source, but user interface behavior.

We have found a workaround and have limited calls to the user interface and this has improved the lag issue. Today we were able to create aliases and decrypt them with virtually no lag so is very promising. Once we get this under control it will solve many issues we had the last weeks moving forward in terms of the user interface stabilization.

We have been quite but again working long hours minimizing distractions at this crucial time.

Thanks.

You might need peers.dat file to find nodes, please join our slack or take it from here along with a bootstrap file to block 1M. Follow instructions in github. Any questions please join our slack

Thanks for the updates and all the hard work.  On Slack it sounds like DIONS will be ready by summer 2017, it will be a great year.

Thanks for the updates and all the hard work.  On Slack it sounds like DIONS will be ready by summer 2017, it will be a great year.

Fuly agree, i think everyone here is really looking forward to the long awaited DioNS wallet.  Like anything in Crypto, when it comes to innovation, they are always going to be "spaners in the works" and things that throw up annoying Bugs, so looking on the positive side, for every Bug/problem that is worked out, is valuable information and skills for the future when developing.

So Bugs can also be a blessing in disguise as the developers here are learning new ways to tackle problems, that money simply can not buy.

Keep up the great work IOC Team.

How people handle issues is far more important than the fact that there are issues.  That is why investment should be in people, not coins.

[xcurry]

Hello Community we have been quite busy these past days, therefore we have not had a chance to post an update.  We are currently still debugging the backend for the aliases in DIONS, dealing with paper work for foundation, working on tasking new web redesigns for IOC, DIONS etc and also have been fully submerged in getting it all to work smooth with the wallet to make the front end changes for beta. We are all hard at work even though we might be quite,  nothing to be worried about, just annoyances from all the new changes to the code. Again feel free to reach out to us in slack if you have any questions. We should have a formal update by next week.

Thanks Everyone

Where we are now in development of new wallet with DIONS? 10%...50%...90%?
Thanks!

We have been at around 90% this is just final api integration, clean up and soon testing. Wallet already loads, syncs blockchain, can register encrypted decentralized aliases, update, transfer with a few bugs and soon messaging integration of api. DIONS is in the final stages, we did however update the code to include a few important changes to the aliases system. Unfortunately sometimes bugs pop up under different scenarios and can drag us a bit. Overall we are happy with how is functioning but it needs to be free of bugs. As you are all well aware any company or project working on code always even after release is slightly bugged down by unforeseen bugs so we are eliminating all possibilities that turn up as we are in the final stages of api integration.

Will keep you all informed as we progress.

Cheers!   

yea, last 10% is always most difficult
