This coin deserves a so much higher marketcap , instead people are still buying crazy overvalued xmr coin.

dadon: There is no minimum coins for staking you just earn 2% of what you hold but its about 6% atm because only 40% or something wallets are staking

I predict your wish will come true.

Hello. I want to participate in the PoS, how to do it ? Is there a manual?

Hi,

all you need to do is get some coins (on exchange/shapeshift etc.), then send them to you wallet. If you have encrypted and locked your wallet (which you definitely should!), then just unlock the wallet for staking (there's a red lock in the bottom right corner > click it and enter your password) - then, after your coins mature (after 8 hours), you'll start getting the rewards automatically.

Mind that you should have your wallet unlocked and open (ideally 24/7) to get the most rewards possible. It's like mining, but you just need open & unlocked wallet.

If you have some problems, let us know!
And welcome here btw :]

Thank you very much for your help. On the Russian forum of SDC virtually no information. It is difficult to understand most . All the more so with the PoS earlier cases had not.

What is the minimum number of coins required for participation?
As a fee is charged : in proportion to the number of coins in the purses of all participants or have the luck factor in solo Mining ?

I think there's no minimum. What you have stakes, even if it's 1 SDC. But obviously more you have, the more rewards (and more ofter) you'll get.

As for "solo mining" (or rather "minting" as it's called with PoS) - there are no "stakepools" for SDC. You can stake alone without any problems and you'll still get PoS rewards. As dadon mentioned above, right now only about 1/3 of the coins are staking, so you'll get about 3× more than if everyone would be staking 24/7 => it's a good time to stake.

In short: get some coins, transfer them to your wallet, unlock wallet and after 8+ hours you should see some PoS rewards (~= interest). No need to do anything else, it's all automatic.

To clarify- the stake reward is always the same, about 0.268 SDC now. The larger your staking balance, the more often you will get that reward. If you have 1 SDC it will take on average about 3 years to get a reward. If you have 20K SDC it will take a couple of hours.

New SDC holders, please keep your coins safe, coin thefts hurt the reputation of the coin and of crypto in general-

Use only the wallet provided by the official site in the the first post of this topic, don't trust anything else.

Be aware of what is running on the machine where your wallet is running- don't use your porn machine or anything crazy like that. Dedicated machine is good, tor is good, locked down encrypted disk, back up your wallet to stick and/or CD and lock it away, you know the drill.

Don't leave coins on exchanges, they get robbed, same story every time.

[LiteBit]

Nearly 50% of wallets are staking, up from 30% last week. That's an impressive number for PoS.

It's nice getting those coins off the centralized exchanges and working for the people.

Definitely good info. I might add that any time the price of a coin starts going up rapidly, so does the number of lowlifes trying to steal them.
Be careful what you download to any machine that has a wallet, and always make sure your wallet is encrypted.

I have been following the posts in the NAV thread with regards to their use of parts of the SDC code base.

I've implemented optional addnode=.onion daemon connectivity for Navcoin and would likely easily be able to add some nodes on the same and/or new servers for SDC.

Does SDC have any existing / dedicated Tor nodes already ? Would the community / devs. consider any bounties to assist with server set-up / help with running costs etc.,

There are already numerous Shadow .onion nodes ....
Can you explain more about what "implemented optional addnode=.onion daemon connectivity" refers to because Onion support is already available in the Shadow codebase.
If you wish you can PM me. Thanks.

Sure. Are their any 'public' addnode=.onion or hidden_service seed nodes for SDC. I realize that the Shadow code base supports Tor ofc.

Here is the post regarding the public NAV nodes that I'm running ;

Here is the post with regards to 4 of those nodes also being full Tor Relays ;

- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=679791.msg15857415#msg15857415

I'm effectively offering to set-up a similar set of nodes for Shadow, as well as trying to ascertain if any other public addnode=.onion's exist ?

I checked your documentation at https://doc.shadowproject.io/#tor and did not find any listed nodes. Checking if you have .onion seed nodes in the code base next, whilst trawling through this thread.

Moving forward, Tor connectivity is remaining 'optional' in SDC, right ?

...

SDC / Tor users might also appreciate my ramblings here ; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=331077.msg16104604#msg16104604

Hi BitcoinFX,

We sure appreciate Tor nodes bridging the clearnet to the hidden net!
We have a few of our own actually, we should probably update the docs to include them, thanks for the notice.

Code:

addnode=shadow2b3ozvqmhm.onion
addnode=shadow3kdzs7v6is.onion
addnode=shadow5ea566kf2j.onion

You're always free to host your own, if you need funds to do so then the only option is to openly request it here with a BTC/SDC donation address attached to it.
I can't however guarantee any monetary reward for running the nodes, I'm sorry

No worries. That's perfect. I'll look to add connectivity for the ones that I'll likely set-up. Its always best to set-up a bunch of nodes at the same time as it obviously make it more difficult for any observers to try and figure out which service is which. 

Another weekend project for me then !

I suggest that for the moment you run the wallet with the following parameter added to your shadowcoin.conf (only for servers and daemons)

Code:

nosmsg=1

We're working the stability of our secure messaging code 
Send me a private message when they are up!

Shall do. Should be within the week or so for public posting, after some dev. testing etc.,

[Scofield]

BitcoinFX, when you've got those nodes up make sure to post your SDC/BTC address. I'll donate some funds for the couse!

Does SDC have a testnet setup?

[Wasda]

Blockexplorer show last block found over 4hrs ago, I sent SDC coins from bittrex to polo 1hr ago and it never arrived. what's wrong?

Hi all! I recently bought little over 1 btc worth of SDC coins, where should I store them?
How much would I earn by staking it? Thank you in advance
