Add NOBL & Diamond please

The price for the first 3 coins is .5 BTC each. After that it will be 1 BTC forever to have a coin added to list to be loaded up at checkout. We will only accept M as payment, regardless of which coin the buyer chooses to use their Snowball to stake with. We will be more than happy to add any coins that would like to pay the fee, as well as providing proof that it is working, prior to payment

With regards to overall progress with the Snowball. We are actually a day ahead of schedule right now and will have some pictures coming later today of the final test version of retail Snowballs, as well as proof that they run, stake, and are actual, real products that exist

With that said, we have sold out of Week 0 pre-orders. Week 1 will be opened fairly soon. Thanks for everyone who participated so far or is just watching to see what happens

There is a one time fee for the dev team or community to be added as an option forever

For anyone following this thread for information on Maieuticoin

Maieuticoin 1.0.3

Many changes in this client; too many, in fact, to list in separate lines. We basically took another coin, adapted everything into Maieuticoin, then did some GUI upgrades of our own. You will require reindexing the first time you open this client. This will automatically begin when it is run for the first time. Do not be alarmed. Your balance will change during reindexing, and may start at 0. It will return to where it is supposed to be by the time the reindexing has completed. Reindexing could be slow, but it is worth it to ensure that all blocks are valid

  • Coin control has been added
  • Graph added to QT Interface
  • Many performance enhancements
  • Smoother transition through old blocks
  • Network data handled more efficiently

Very interesting concept but hoping the dev can shed some light on how the hardware is able to handle the storage needs of a full blockchain. As it is raspberry pi based, it's unlikely it would have anywhere near enough storage space, without an expensive HDD added. RAM is a concern too. Can you address this please dev?

On further thought, I suppose this is quite possible. Had my wires crossed about the size of SD cards Tongue thanks for your answer!

No problem. Snowballs come with 8 GB cards. We tested on 4 GB and had no issues, but I like to leave a little more room in case people want to modify their unit or add something new. We welcome modifications!

Bottlecaps might be a good fit (200% annual stake), although I'm not sure about the 0.5 btc. Latest wallet even has a cool feature that auto-sends up to 50% of earned stake to a specified address. IMO that's an extremely nice feature in a high-POS coin. Just a passing thought.

Any word on Blackcoin being added? Could you tell us how many Snowball have been pre ordered and is it correct that batch 0 is shipped with batch 1?

I would had have interest in it with HYP, but didn't know about it
Not sure what it means do, as a device to stake HYP i would love it, but need to have the HYP wallet in it with advanced coin control

Hey! :-( No community interest or it was needed to "pay" to be in it?

This space is for lease, apparently.

I am currently staking both M and BALLS on the same device

We did not charge to add HYP, but nobody showed any interest
