Kenel and I are meeting with Ahmed today/tomorrow in Las Vegas and we'll update folks within the next few days. We also plan on meeting with some other folks to discuss mining and hardware. Hashers United should be a great venue for crypto enthusiasts. We met tonight and had a few beers, and we hope to have a very productive next couple days.

Thanks for the update. Take lotsa pictures for us, it'd be great to see what's going on I don't think I will take pictures. I'm sitting in a seminar at the moment, but I talked to Marshall earlier and he said all presentations would be available after the show. Also, there are professional photographers here, so should be lots to see very shortly. Really cool to be here, and one of the most interesting things so far is that Genesis Mining just announced that they will be offering a cloud hash solution where you can switch your hash between SHA256, Scrypt, and X11. Also, you can apply percentages of hashrate across all three. Eventually this will be automated so that hashrate can be switched across the three algorithms based on certain triggers. More later. TT

i'm sorry but life is this mundane. devs are still working on getting a testnet setup. this is volunteer work, not compensated, it'll be ready when they've had enough time to provide a full release. maybe you can bug them in IRC.

Yeah it can be mundane I'll give you that. Do you know if the foundation has any updates or promotion planned for SRC as well, or just DGC?

The Foundation is concentrating on Digitalcoin at the moment, but Argentum and Securecoin are both on the radar. In fact, the Digitalcoin Foundation official mining pool, poolerrangers.com, is being migrated to a new domain, and will support mining only for DGC, SRC, and ARG.
Most aspects of the V3.0 release have been decided, and much of the work has been done.
An updated QT wallet has been released by xawksow into private beta.
We are constructing a poll to get opinions on block rewards for Digitalcoin. Once the language is decided, we will post publicly to get feedback on multiple forums.
Finally, we are considering a new type of merge mining, and Ahmed is looking at the feasibility. The concept is simple, and a variation of the multi-vPoW standard, but would allow merge mining only by certain coins, not any coin. This is a very interesting concept, and acceptable to the Foundation because it does not put Digitalcoin at the mercy of other coins when it comes to future upgrades.
To the best of my knowledge, selective merge mining has not been done, and Digitalcoin would be the first to implement such a strategy. In preparation for this, we are considering what coins will be authorized to merge mine Digitalcoin, and would love to hear opinions.

Cosmoo, do you have any opinions on the merge mining proposition I described in my previous post?

My only concern is having a stable hashrate that can withstand your average mining farm. Most PoW coins could easily be compromised, which guarantees they'll never be taken seriously. Merging with BTC/LTC is the most failsafe solution, though we would essentially be forfeiting domain over DGC to people who have no particular interest in it. We should have at least 20gh/s imo, if that can be achieved through merging with coins like Myriad then I'm happy.
Frankly I think implementing an overall turn to proof-of-stake is a good idea, looking at all these pure pos instamined coins it seems to work well enough.

Tsquared, I thought it was agreed we'd reduce supply by %66? Or did I miss a meeting?
