Ok thanks.  Such a waste of tech.  No one's using Clearinghouse.  Can it do asset to asset trading or all assets have to go through viacoin?

There's a Viacoin community coin (vialove) create an account and I'll send you some, if you would like to try it.

 

Created a Clearwallet.  Here's my address Vk8YL6DshSCRLQELdW6k9Xv53wXjzxDVSu

Seriously, I honestly didn't really look into Clearinghouse...  It looks good.  Thanks for pointing me to it.

What does this mean in Clearwallet?  "Got an error when trying to sync VIA balances: timeout"

Also, Drak, any plans to make asset to asset trading possible or does everything has to be traded thru XCH?

[tokeweed]

I have said this before...  Last year, I think.  VIA needs to be listed in BTC38.  A Chinese exchange could help with liquidity/volume.

[Ted Unite]

I did some efforts half a year ago, but due to the low volume there were no intentions to add new altoins in general at the time to BTC38.
Can't hurt to try it again. There is a small chance that the volume on altcoins will rise soon when bitcoin will rise. We have to get some momentum for this.

Yep, you did, I recall offering to translate something into Chinese, but in all honestly who would it benefit?  the self confessed insider trading likes of masternode, seriously if that dude and his group have really written of their investment and ain't looking to pump and dump their coffers then how about they fess up and hand over the keys so Via can more forward onward and upward as the first real viable alternative to Bitcoin.

I have no control over that and so I will not put energy into it.
What I would like to do is focus on what I can do for Viacoin. Like trying to get Viacoin adopted as much as possible. BTC38 would be a nice win.

[tokeweed]

Focus on both.  People won't buy into VIA if the volume is so low even if good, accurate articles were written about it.  And if something is traded in an open market, volume is more important than price.  The more exchanges VIA is listed at would mean the more access the people would have to it.

And lastly, have fun and don't take yourselves seriously.  This ain't even real 'money'...

Being able to trade against CNY would be amazing, or any fiat for that matter.
Also you can trade assets against each other without involving VIA or XCH, just click the `trade` tab in clearwallet and enter the asset you want to trade (a drop down list appears when you start typing) then select the `other` button to enter the asset you want to trade against.

How did you manage to find yourselves in a situation where you were downloading the blockchain for VIA but didn't know about clearinghouse?
What made you interested in this coin enough that you began syncing your own local clients when seemingly you hadn't read the announcement on page one?

Just curious

[tokeweed]

I'm more of a trader (my passion) than a coin 'zealot'.  So I look into lots of coins.  If you follow my posts, I'm slowly transferring to LTC due to a (in my opinion) a brewing shit storm coming in BTC land.  You are aware that Gavin is pushing for his XT hard fork, right?  It could wreck BTC.

But anyway, I noticed VIA could have reached it's lows and there's no way but up.  So I've been looking into VIA and other coins like XMR besides LTC to 'park' funds.  But the volume isn't there, though one draw for me is Peter Todd.

Also one quick question for Drak.  Would it be possible to make Clearwallet store BTC as well?  I think this could draw more users towards Clearinghouse and VIA.

[derrend]

You and me both. I have the same attitude towards Primecoin. Let me take this opportunity to plug Datacoin, it runs the XPM algo and has only 1.7MM units, it's at position 272 on cmc right now
I parked some funds there recently

I do know about Gavin increasing the blocksize but im my mind he is the lead dev and I just trust that he knows the score more than I do

You can already trade between assets directly, just enter the trade pair in the search.

If you have any more sync errors, PM me.

I wrote to them several times in the past, if anyone has any direct contact for them send me a PM.

I was just clicking links. I did read the op but I guess I missed some of the important parts. It's all fixed up now and running like a thoroughbred.

[tokeweed]

Almost all, if not all of the assets listed in Clearinghouse is useless.  Sorry if I'm mistaken.  But most of them have no use and company backing.

I think another goal for Drak and everyone involved is to attract real start ups to use Clearinghouse.  One good example is Reveal.  Check out this article..  http://www.coindesk.com/reveal-1-5-million-crypto-snapchat/

Reveal Raises $1.5 Million for Crypto-Powered Social Network

Cryptocurrency-powered social network Reveal has closed $1.5m in seed funding from investors including Mike Hirshland of Resolute Ventures, Boost VC, Digital Currency Group and the Stanford StartX Fund.

Founded by Matt Ivester, former CEO of social network Kindr as well as college gossip news site JuicyCampus, and Kindr CTO Josh Beal, Reveal is perhaps best described as a visually oriented, Q&A social mobile app.

Like Instagram, SnapChat, Vine and other new social media incumbents, Reveal targets users in high school and college. Unlike these market leaders, Reveal's posts offer a unique combination of doodles, photos, video and cryptocurrency.

It's biggest asset according to its founders is reveal coin. A cryptographic token traded on the Stellar network, Ivester and Beal believe reveal coin will serve as a user engagement tool that will resonate with their target audience.

I have nothing against Stellar, but afaik, it's having problems of their own with a lawsuit against Jed Maccaleb and their network was unstable and had to switch off nodes except for one.  Clearinghouse should take advantage.

How is it that counterparty has a marketcap of over $3.2MM whilst Via which is a vastly superior has a current cap of less then $200,000?

The mind boggles.

[tokeweed]

^ Because no one's interested.

[tokeweed]

Btw, Drak.  XCH blockchain explorer doesn't work if accessed from Clearwallet.  Please look into it.  Also syncing the VIA wallet using the 32bit one seems faster than the 64bit one in windows.  Weird..

[tokeweed]

Drak, just wondering...  Would it be possible to make Clearwallet capable of generating BTC addresses and store BTC?  It could be a cool and useful feature to have, or at least make it an optional feature.

This will change. People will soon see VIA for what its worth.
I'll buy more today.

A definite increase in forum activity these past few days and some new faces too
