1. Is there a linkdin page or somewhere I can get a bio and other RL info from the dev? The dev is anon, but has a history of living up to his promises in the past year of leading Vanillacoin. He accomplished more code in less time (alone) than what DASH/XMR or most well known competitors did. 2. Do superpeers need to be hosted? I assume they need to be hosted due to the need for constant uptime/ if so, is their a service that can help me do this? I am not very technical but I will have my first 10k coins by the end of the day. I host them from my home connection, but I usually don't have disconnects (1-2x/week max) and my Super Peer is working well enough. If you prefer a hosting service, you can try a VPS provider, there are cheap ones out there. A guide on the official Vanillacoin forums: https://talk.vanillacoin.net/topic/218/how-to-run-a-vnl-incentive-node-on-a-vpsYou only need hosting if you plan to take part in the Node Incentive system though. http://vanillacoin.net/wiki/Technologies/Node%20Incentives.md3. I have heard about Proof of Stake and have a general understanding of the concept, not sure how is works in practice though; I mean, do I just open my wallet and let my cash "stake" by itself? Does it even need to be open? Would it be better if I hosted it on a server? Etc. Proof of Stake should be turned off on the machine hosting a super peer because it takes the 10k and stakes it, thus disrupting it's work. Else the Proof of Stake value is 0.7% yearly to secure the network and to give a bonus to holders for doing so. Proof of Stake happens on wallets that are open for a given time and hold any amount of coins, the first stake can take a longer time to achieve. (Paid) Hosting just for POS is probably not worth it with the current price levels if you are looking at it for an income. Vanillacoin's POS is very energy efficient so if you have a PC at home running for most of the time anyway, feel free to stake. Else we have a Beta Android and iOS wallet, I used to stake on my Android phone (before using the node incentives) and it took almost no battery power away from my daily use (around 1-5% maybe?). Please feel free to ask if you don't find/see anything.

Does anyone have an XML script to import VNL price to google docs that they could share? I've been trying to make one but I suck at it . Thanks, Pablo.

John did say when the time is right and the coin is mature he will dox himself, and that he is a P2P and Crypto veteran of over 20 years. So I hope that helps Pablo.

Answering point 2: Im running 5 super peers, and getting around 60-120VNL each day (of course holding ) If you are running the wallet 24/7 you will have more possibilites to take a "reward" now the rewards are 7.407vnl. You need to get 10.000 vnls, and when you have into your wallet, sent a transaction to your own address of unique 10.000 (without zerotime) after sending the 10k you must restart your wallet after that you must go to your wallet data (where stores wallet.dat etc) and edit config.dat and disable proof of stake editing to "0" if not, when you stake, you'll lose the balance of 10.000 and stop node super peer. You must check in config.dat the port, and open TCP & UDP you can check you are super peer in the console doing "getincentiveinfo" I hope don't forget anything. Best Regards, and enjoy community, I'd like to thank everyone for their helpful responses; I am actually buying my first coins on Polo right now and am eager to give the coin a try.
I still have some outstanding questions though:
1. Is there a linkdin page or somewhere I can get a bio and other RL info from the dev?
2. Do superpeers need to be hosted? I assume they need to be hosted due to the need for constant uptime/ if so, is their a service that can help me do this? I am not very technical but I will have my first 10k coins by the end of the day.

Most appreciated, very detailed. I did get more than 10K so I will take a look at doing this, however, due to low price per reward I think Ill just keep the coins in my wallet for now . Pablo.

Hmmm, I wasn't able to get the wallet running on Ubuntu, I don't have the technical chops; simplifying this process should aid adoption. I'll get it to run on Windows tom and go from there. First impressions are by and large positive . Pablo.

First impressions are by and large positive . Pablo. Easiest way to get it installed on Linux is to use Xcore's script. You can find it @ https://github.com/xCoreDev/vanillacoin-scripts . You will find instructions on how to utilize the script there on the page.

The USD price has hardly changed as it's still between 3 and 4 cents @ $0.031666 like it's been for the past month. The BTC price is irrelevant, at least to me since I do not invest in Bitcoin. Thank you for your support.

This is a rumor. Besides it's too risky without regulation in place for crypto-currency developers, pools, etc. I have to support my family and I am working in a gray area. I am the biggest risk taker amongst all VNL investors @ 200K USD invested so far in it's development so there is no room for additional risk. Additionally I see this as no more than a publicity stunt. Not a single coin that DOX'd itself has made a positive difference. For Dash I feel it's making things worse for Evan and the coin as a whole. Thank you for your support.

The windows build works fine. If you change your mind and need help though come into the irc room. The script is pretty easy and I'm sure with some assistance you could get it working.

Do you have a plan as to how you will add more devs and stuff to your team and in what time line? I understand you are doing the whole thing solo? That can't be easy to sustain. 2. Do you have a plan for financing further development? I'm not sure how it's currently done, is it donations? I think finding a way for developement to finance itself is really what will make or break a coin project long term. Thanks for your time and for creating this awesome community. Pablo.
