Trace Mayer gave ShadowCash another shoutout in a recent video May 1st, at the 31min mark: https://youtu.be/wmY-f1SX7aU?t=30m45sTrace is a really smart guy and early Bitcoiner interested in anonymity. He promoted Bitcoin as an investment since the price was about 5 cents to 25 cents per bitcoin. He has invested in many Bitcoin businesses as well like Armory, BitPay, Kraken, SatoshiDice, and many others. He also has the websites runtogold.com and howtovanish.com He was also mentioning homomorphic encryption, cryptonote, and indistinguishability obfuscation for more anonymous currencies. I know Rynomster the lead SDC dev mentioned that homomorphic encryption was one of the things they were looking at for the future, as well as SNARKS. For anyone interested, Trace was mentioning ShadowCash in another video a bit ago as well(18:40 mark): https://youtu.be/50_NfitNTkI?t=18m39sHe was mentioning ring signatures, zero knowledge proofs, SNARKS, and the ShadowCash whitepaper. He says that ShadowCash is an example of where the libertarians may need to go as Bitcoin becomes more mainstream and regulated. I think he is spot on with his analysis. If anyone wants to check out some of his shows, he has the Bitcoin Knowledge podcast, it seems pretty good: http://www.bitcoin.kn/Trace Meyer also did the initial write-up on ShadowCash for weusecoins.com https://www.weusecoins.com/what-is-shadowcash/I cleaned it up a bit: https://github.com/sunnankar/wuc-new/pull/31

http://41.media.tumblr.com/9ebf4028c13b207077d33f9ead716074/tumblr_inline_nnj7gzDNJK1tray00_1280.jpgTuesday, 5th May 2015 Thunderclap Contest UpdateTo thank all supporters we have set up a competition within the #FightForPrivacy campaign. A donation address (wallet) was set up last week, which allowed all Shadow enthusiasts to donate prize money (ShadowCash) to be handed out to 5 people who have supported the #FightForPrivacy campaign on Thunderclap. At this moment, already more than 4000 SDC has been donated by Shadow community members! When the Thunderclap message is released we will randomly pick 5 winners from the list of supporters. These winners will each receive a 20% share of the total amount that is in the wallet at that time. This means that anyone who wants to support the campaign can contribute by sending new donations to the wallet, making things more interesting for all supporters! With less than 5 days left until our message is released we encourage everybody to ask all family and friends who care about privacy to support our Thunderclap campaign and join the contest! ***CONTEST WALLET*** http://shadowchain.info/address/STCLAPoztkiXmwE71bc2jn4EX5GCLzJoibOn the 10th of May, we will let the world know how the Shadow Project is defending our privacy with technology that has never been created before. A big thanks and good luck to all supporters! The Shadow Team

BTW i know the wallet problem is most probably 99% certain on my side, because no one else is complaining of this problem, only looking for a tip or a suggestion? have done rewindchain, re-downloaded, checked firewalls, and the last wallet a few weeks ago was working fine and then it just stopped, im lost, my computer must be retarded.

Why don't you grab the blockchain.zip and extract it into the ShadowCoin data directory ... That wil give you a clean blockchain and have you back in action in minutes.

Shadowchat question: I am having trouble sending a message from a remote wallet to my vanity address. It seems you can only send a message to the address in the upper right hand corner of your wallet. Is there any way to fix that? Thanks.
