Last 24 hours we saw a big rise in altcoins listed at btc38. as we all know, SDC is not listed there. China being the biggest crypto-country worldwide, it looks important to me have the upcoming shadowmarket also available in chinese. Is there any news wheater it will be abvailable in chinese?
http://www.btc38.com/trade/vote_for_trade_en.htmlNice. Someone voted with .5 BTC this week Feel free to show some support for SDC on BTC38's thread => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=522458.0Also done, it's very easy to sell a project when it has so much going for it.

Taking me days to sync the Mac qt...is this normal? Keep closing and reopening...often becomes unresponsive then comes back but it just syncs little bits at a time.

Are you using the bootstrap? I could see the blockchain taking a long time if you don't. It could also be a hardware problem, not enough RAM maybe? Or do you have a lot of other stuff running simultaneously? Syncing uses a lot of resources.

Closing and reopening will only cause issues. Some nodes may ban your IP for suspicious behavior. I'd use the bootstrap if I were you.

A while ago they posted that they are delaying release a little but should have a video of the whole setup in beta style by end of q2. full release should be shortly after.

Thanks for the link Americunt. I have a feeling the financial impact of Shadowmarket is going to be larger than most anticipated. I wasn't aware that the lead developer of OpenBazaar also works for one of the largest CIA contractors. That's going to be a tough sell any way you look at it.. lel. Based on the contents of the article, I foresee a massive infusion of DN capital into SDC as the ShadowMarket release draws nearer. 2015 is shaping up to be the year of the Shadow. I couldn't agree more GameOfCoins, the DNM's are crying out for a solution and all the other options are looking less and less likely to have any real impact. According to the Q&A Shadow will support I2P and Tor (not TOR...), Tails ships both. Someone should figure out how to install Shadow on Tails before the market gets released, so that all DNM buyers and vendors have enough time to start using it. And since everyone would run the same OS, it would be much easier to help them if they had any questions. If Shadow gets on Tails, the market gets released and some people start using it, the DNMs will slowly become obsolete.

Only problem is this is a staking coin, TAILS is intended for intermittent use and people might not want to give up the >2% payments. But many people living in sensitive areas where even having the blockchain on your hard drive is a liability might. A neat application might be to just have everything associated with SDC written to a USB drive that you can lose if necessary. Same for a Shadow phone, put it all on the SD card so if you remove it not even a shadow remains.

Hi, I have downloaded the wallet from the OP and my wallet current version is v1.3.2.4-1-g4d0a0bc and is asking me for checkpoints and to upgrade. So can anyone point me to updated version?

Or do you have a lot of other stuff running simultaneously? Syncing uses a lot of resources. Thanks, the bootstrap was a must. I don't know if it's just me but syncing is very slow...every time there's a new block it takes a few minutes to catch up. Not a huge deal but would like to see the devs fix that eventually, I like to see check marks on my wallets.

By any chance do you know what dependencies Shadow needs to run on Tails? If so we should try it out and get it to work, maybe post some instructions on The Hub forums, DeepDotWeb etc., allowing others to follow a step-by-step guide. How big is the current Shadow blockchain?

That is the latest version .. please use it with the bootstrap for a quick sync ... detail found here : http://shadowcash.info/x/MAAV

Staking will work on Tails but the point being made was that you need "mature" coins and also people may not keep there Tails installation online 24x7 .. hence you miss out on staking. I see no reason why you could not run Shadow on Tails today. Current Block chain is roughly 300M.

If it's possible to run Shadow on Tails could you please be so kind and release some short of short instructions on how to install it? So some of us could test it on Tails. Am I correct to assume that I have to build it? But first installing all the necessary packages from https://github.com/SDCDev/shadowcoin/blob/master/doc/readme-qt.rst ? Or is there an easier way of getting it done?

Or is there an easier way of getting it done? These are good points. An SDT address is untraceable online so it can be openly revealed online, but I think what you're getting at with TAILS is what happens if your machine is physically under control of authorities and they can look at your wallet, see your addresses and transaction history, and link that to the things they observed online. Under your system all they would see is a SDC installation, with occasional transactions going to an SDT address, and that SDT address is in a wallet in your TAILS drive that is stored somewhere else. Something like this would be important for sellers in a reputation-based market, because that reputation will be linked to an address and they can't change that all the time if they want to build up a reputation. Another thing that would be helpful is tight security in the wallet installation itself. It would be nice if the wallet could be open and staking, but you have to enter a strong password to be able to see any information from it at all. Also we should be able to delete old addresses, and when the wallet deletes information it wipes and overwrites it as well.

The wallet needs some sort of alias feature so vendors and customers can be identified by there alias instead of Address.
