I setup a testnet faucet so you can get your hands on some testnet coins. You will need them soon. You need to run your wallet in testnet mode however.

On windows get a run window and type

Code:

"c:\program files\Viacoin\Viacoin-Qt.exe" -testnet 

The testnet faucet can be found here: http://viacoin.coinlabs.org/testnetfaucet/

Apologies for my ignorance but what are testnet coins and why will i need them soon ?

im running the Viacoin-QT wallet on my mac but I can set up the testnet wallet on a pc, but i dont understand what they are.

Help please, community !

Testnet coins are just that, disposable, worthless coins - for testing purposes. The testnet functions just as the mainnet, but can be experimented on and with, without risks or loss.

Ok thanks, I have done the above and have 200 VIA in my testnet wallet on a windows machine. do i hold them, send them straight back, accumulate daily and wait or do something else ?!

Sorry to be so dumb, but VIA is the first coin I've had any involvement with so this is all new to me. I assume the testnet is to help test whatever is coming next so am happy to contribute in any way i can, as long as i know what it is i am supposed to be doing to help !

This is my favorite coin/platform right now. The IPO ends, people are paid, and instead of the project folding up like most, top talent is hired and it just gets better!?

Setting new standards here. Very impressed.

I am assuming that a new feature is going to be ready for testing soon, and it will only be running on the testnet initially. So, having a wallet running on testnet with some testnet coin will be needed to run/test this whatever it is.

But, normally, you don't use or need test net or test coin.

Can someone please give information about the current and future development. I do not want to read the whole tread.
The information on Treechain I have read, but what are the current and other future goals.

Via interested me for some time, but I had no free btc. Thus I missed the best start at 20k.
Now I would like to enter but need more information.

Hi Viacoiners,

I'm not sure about how I compiled the wallet on Ubuntu 12.04 (wallet is 1.0.3.) so can somebody confirm my MO ? 

So I installed all the prerequisites listed in build-unix.md (berkeley 4.8, qt5 stuff etc.). Then, I ran the 3 mandatory commands : autogen, configure and make. But once it was done, there's no viacoin-qt in my main directory...

I read the terminal and I see that everything happened in /src so me being a noob in linux, what I did was just copy/paste the viacoin-qt from /src/qt to the main directory.

Finally, I ran ./viacoin-qt and the wallet popped up and synced fine. I then successfully set a passphrase to it and was able to lock/unlock the wallet. So finally, I tried to send 1 VIA from an exchange to my wallet and it worked fine and went pretty fast.

Question : is everything OK (considering how I compiled the wallet) ?

You should then run

Code:

sudo make install

You'll then have commands like

viacoin-qt
viacoind
viacoin-cli

I hate Twitter.
I can read the blog but a quick summary would be nice.

So? You can still go to his specific page and read his updates. Twitter is by definition summary information.

I'm impressed on how strong the via price is. since the very beginning to now and still going, the price just keeps bouncing back, higher and higher.
There has been numerous times with huge dumps on bittrex and the price doesn't nudge few % below. It just keeping coming back up.

$1 per via is inevitable with drak's xch plan and peter on the team, all we need is the time required to develop the codes.
Just look at bittrex btc-via timeline, select all, very nice slow steady rise.

THIS is what an altcoin SHOULD be like.   I like everything about this, and just bought in.  Making a paper wallet to put in cold storage.

I cannot wait to see this project come to life over the next few months

via at 44k... wow

[younier]

Via and BTCD are both good,but i still think via is the best!!!
