A few projects working on this, plus some reference code for Bitcoin.

It's a matter of when, not if.

Some updates on vTorrent development progress,

I have been working on vTorrent almost full time recently, adding many new unique features to the client, I just need to work on a few things more and new beta should be ready for public.

Here are some current screenshot,

....

To all community members, please do not hesitate to throw out some great idea for our upcoming betas.
 
Sorry for the delays and thank you for your support as always.

A good idea would be if you could provide us with some proof of code. I am getting a little bit tired of only seeing screenshots. I am good with GIMP too, does not mean I can code. Not seeing any sign of implementing Torrent stuff either.

Any community member using any version of Mac OSX and willing to help us test the pre-public beta version of the client, feel free to contact me.

@Frigga77 I am sorry to let you down but I am seriously quite bad at GIMP  

Regards

Just wondering, why didn't you compile a beta client for windows? Much more testers if you do.
I sure hope you did not GIMP the pictures, but to me they do not say much until I see working code. You have a way of avoiding talking about technical details. And to me, that is worrying. I see that a lot of others like the concept of this coin, I do too, but I am just not that convinced that you are able to do what you promised. Did not see anything recently about the bug-solving either.

Let's wait for him to release the new wallet and see where we stand.

Can you fix the coin supply data so coinmarketcap picks up the VTR value.

It would be nice to see what place we are in.

[bitwarrior]

This seems like a good concept, hopefully it will be successful. Will be monitoring.

This shit just got real interesting:

Darkleaks is the best tool to trade any kind of media, information, video, data and documents that have value.

Hollywood movies
Trade secrets
Government secrets
Proprietary source code
Industrial designs like medicine or defence
Zero day exploits
Stolen databases
Proof of tax evasion
Military intelligence
Celebrity sex pictures
Corruption

Just as I was reviewing the PayPub code, contributions and discussions, it got released as darkleaks 

[coins101]

source_filename = "ROJAVA"
chunks_directory = "./test/"
number_chunks = 20

def setup_testdir(path):
    if os.path.isdir(path):
        shutil.rmtree(path)
    os.makedirs(path)

def checksum(filename):
    f = open(filename)
    return hashlib.sha1(f.read()).hexdigest()

setup_testdir(chunks_directory)
print "Digest of source file:", checksum(source_filename)

actual_chunks = darkleaks.start(source_filename, chunks_directory, 20)
print "Created", actual_chunks, "chunks."



# Now the chunks are passed around on BitTorrent...

# The block comes and is mined. Now we have the block_hash.
block_hash = "000000000000000014d8d1db40f33e87e8c9c5f37accb2718d40a7a1860b98c4".decode("hex")
# The leaker promised beforehand to release 10 chunks, so based
# off the block hash he now releases the pubkeys for those.
# Users can:
#   A) see that the donate addresses are generated from these
#   pubkeys as specified per chunk.
#   B) see that the pubkeys are actually used to decrypt the chunks.
# The leaker cannot preselect which chunks will get selected for
# revealing, only the number (which he announced publically).

proofs = darkleaks.prove(
    source_filename, number_chunks, block_hash, number_chunks)

I like the concept of darkleaks. I am pretty sure I heard about this on a LTB podcast a few weeks ago.

Darkleaks seems to have a huge flaw though, what is keeping a leaker honest, there isnt even a reputation system right? Since it is all anonmymous?

Let's say a leaker has a Kardashian nude pic. Leaker sells this pic to kim or one of her fans. Whyat is keeping the leaker from making a copy and selling the nude pic again a month later?
blockchain is great fro a ton of things, I dont think darkleaks is one of them.

OK chaps, just had a thought about why this will take off.

GCHQ, NSA etc., capture data that flows through international routing hubs. Transatlantic data that goes through sea cables goes through just a few hubs before it distributes around a country or continent.

That's how these organisations can capture most of the data that travels around the internet. Through the routing hubs. It makes their job so much easier.

The same happens with ISPs. They track data traffic and profit from that information.

If local seeders obtain files and then seed to their immediate local area, say within a 5-10 mile radius, then ISPs and anyone else looking to profit off data traffic analysis, well they are out of luck.

Internet traffic tracking for media files now needs to include crypto <> torrent seeders.

Also, the load on the internet gets removed because traffic is more local, thus allowing the internet to continue growing without major infrastructure changes or extra charges based on bandwidth use by users.  ISPs would pay seeders for this help.

There are so many ways for seeders to get paid. Who will give away files, when someone else is distributing it free, but making a profit from doing so. We just killed torrents.  

Hello all I am new to this community. Can someone explain the fundementals of this coin to me? What will the currency be used for....what will make it valuable?    Will people get "paid" for uploading content and if it has many seeders / leechers you get paid? Do seeders also get paid? How does this work....brilliant idea however I am glad someone is doing this. Also can someone tell coinmarketcap to update their shit?

Always tread with caution. It's still early days on all these projects. I've dipped my toe in the waters, but keeping options open - including taking on projects in this space if needed.

Hi Dev, a kind reminder that 6 days have passed since your last reply in this thread and everybody is waiting impatiently for the new beta with those many unique features you promised, but would not reveal yet. Please keep us updated on the progress 

[oktogen]

And by the way i can´t download any wallet from dev ann post, (maybe the files are deleted, the link follow only to filedropper.com ). Can someone  try?

Thank you for your report,

All links has been updated and link for new beta (OSX version) is also posted in the first post as feedback from private beta has been good so far.

Thank you for your support.

Dev can you fix the data on coinmarketcap? Thanks.

[dida]

Has anybody tested new MAC OSX wallet?...can you provide us with some details

Thx

[ik_do]

Can dev please update as at least to say you're still working on this? Also I still haven't received a response about my wallet issue.
