love the new wallet happy b-day  will dump some more btc into DMD

Awesome  Downloading now

Whoa, what a ride, wasn’t it?

One full year or to be more precise 6 code developers later we are here to celebrate the event a lot of people would doubt would ever happen - Diamond’s birthday.
It’s crazy story and not everyone here remembers. The original developer was on a coin making spree and one of his creations was Diamond. It was a powerful sounding name for a coin with extremely fair issuance cycle of one Diamond reward per solved block (with occasional ‘random’ ones). After the devs departure the coin was simply left for dead. Thankfully, that little gem was resurrected in December which attracted widespread attention and a community that formed around it decided to take over its development. Beginnings weren’t easy as we went through many setbacks and periods of lost faith of investors. However, for us at the core, over the months that followed, Diamond stopped being an investment or entertainment or anything else for that matter. It has become our journey, our vector in life, our dream that we have tirelessly pursued sacrificing more than some would be willing to sacrifice.

Where has it led us? To exactly where we are now.

• Diamond is the world’s first coin that undergone successful algorithm change not only saving existing legacy blockchain but also averting death by merciless Skrypt ASICs.
• Diamond is the world’s first coin that implemented a unique dynamic total coin amount based trigger for more natural cycle of changes to happen.
• Diamond has been recalibrated to be in active service for at least three decades with coin mechanics that are following low inflation issuance model encouraging the rise of value of the single Diamond with time.
• Diamond has a working and well thought through Proof of Stake mechanism which works in tandem with Proof of Work protocol providing endless hybrid security.
• Diamond has cleaned up core code that has literally diffused ticking bug bomb that could have exploded at any moment leaving the network paralysed.

With today’s anniversary update we prove yet again that we represent quality Diamond deserves.

Diamond 2.0.3 change log:
 • Fast Index - Provides very fast loading of the block chain from disk.
 • Implement getnetworkhashps RPC
 • Implement stakepower element in the getmininginfo RPC.
 • Implemented Qt wallet minting icon and mini-stats about minting in a tooltip.
 • Implement ‘unlock for minting only’.
 • Implement dnsseed nodes.
 • Implement coin control.
 • Fix numerous Qt styling and compatibility issues.
 • Fix numerous core hashing routines, text and general code clean-up.

Apart from the software client, we’re also presenting a convenient permanent storage enabling tool; in other words a paper wallet facility:
http://diamond.danbo.bg/bitaddress.org/bitaddress.org.html?culture=en

and ABE based block explorer (version 1 – needs some makeup)
http://diamond.danbo.bg:2750/chain/Diamond - Diamond uses two separate hashing algorithms so this was not off the shelf solution.

The above are the effects of just a few months of our hard work; now imagine what we can achieve in another few.

If we are fit enough to survive for so long we are well fit to overcome anything that future brings; and the thing with the future is that we do not try to predict it, we simply create it.
The future that we are creating for Diamond is clearer and brighter than at any given point before. In the years to come we as the community can make Diamond dream come true, as together we can build something that is fair, lasting and significant.

Yours faithfully,

Diamond Team

@cryptonit
Testing underway on 14.7RC ... will need to run for a half-day at least to get a stable hashrate for comparison

Is it normal that out of 20 minting attempts only 3 were successful?

today is the big day!

im looking forward to read the wise words from diamond CEO popshot

not that i wana create pressure for u or heat up the expectations  



today we will be able connect a few dots that mark the history of diamond until yet

and we look forward and trust into us and so should u too

A bit OT, but anyway.

I have life outside Diamond. It just happened that Diamond was the only coin I really cared about (hard to explain why). So when the team needed help, I offered some. Not to say it was an easy task
Now, Diamond has moved forward quite nicely and there is a lot more in the works.

I could help Judgecoin (never heard of it) somehow, but can't contract for money -- they simply can't afford to pay me, if I am to work for them full time. So any help might be out of sympathy... whatever.

No idea what their problem is, what they want to achieve and if I can help them. But we could try.

/off topic

By their composition the X algos use groestl I am awake now and will soon begin testing ... In the middle of a movie right now
It just dawned on me that the "optimized" X11 and X13 kernels that I have posted on my testing thread may be gaining their better hashrates from groestl, I will also experiment with an extracted portion of the groestl algo in the X11mod.cl as a standalone Whoopee! another project to pursue

Of course, what kind of growth rates is now possible to say when the only major market for Diamond is cryptsy, but they are or does not understand or does not want to update the information ..
The main task is now to develop the infrastructure and make the most accessible for any user and technical information about Diamonds.
Until the autumn much more time, but still worth it to get a move on this issue ..

blockexplorer is full functional:
http://diamond.danbo.bg:2750/chain/Diamond


and a second one
http://dmdpool.digsys.bg/bc/

edit:

and tell them to update their dmd info page maybe their technicans look their own wrong info about blockexplorer.....

https://www.cryptsy.com/currencies/view/56
everything there is wrong and we told them multiple times but u can try again

website http://bit.diamonds/overview.html contain all required info

 

Download completed however I have to take a nap before I start testing ...

any groestl tests?

So here is a response I got from Cryptsy on my DMD that has not shown up in my wallet....

"Hello Ron,

I do apologize for the delay, our agents are not closing your tickets. Since you have put multiple tickets in about the same issue they get merged together and one ticket stays open while the rest our closed. Currently there is no working DMD explorer to see what is going on with the network and bringing up the transaction of our withdrawal to you appears to be invalid. We are working to resolve this issue and get a working DMD block explorer to make sure transactions go out properly. Thank you for your patience while we look to find an explorer and resend the transaction.


Sincerely

Mark

Does a block explorer exist that they can check against or is that coming out soon?  I have tried the one supplied on the main site but it does not work for me.  I am a noob when it comes to explorers and am not really sure how all of it is made.  Any way I am now over 2 weeks out on my missing DMD's.  Very sad.  :-(

PoW nearly complete on JC I'll probably dump soon after Pure PoS and buy DMD with proceeds LOL but I give new coins a chance ...

AMD catalyst 14.7 RC1 July 09 2014 now available ... see my testing thread in my sig or go directly to AMD beta site

May already be enough produce useless and empty coin?
I understand that greed and boundless desire to get rich quickly driven many developers, to quickly create a blank coins, but how many more people need to cheat, that they would have realized this and stopped buying pacifiers.

we all from foundation work for free because we bought/mined us a little share of DMD and the success of diamond will be our success

if ya find good and skillful people i suggest following
motivate them to buy into DMD and then start to work together with us on this success-story

we offer the chance to work for ur own success
dont be a victim of bad devs and marketing and coin concepts
be part of a team and work together for success

even u utahjohn might have skills that qualify u to join the team
at least u very active

I am fully with DMD and still mining solo I am also involved in other coins that might have a future.  I'm not asking Danbi to leave DMD as he is essential to continued development of DMD.
As a matter of fact I have suggested that founder of coin have a look at DMD as a guideline for good coin mechanics.  Not any competition for DMD but founder is very active in community which is great.

its not like we done with diamond DMD once  the birthday release is done

we have big plans for the future

@Danbi
A new coin Judgecoin is looking for help with continued development.  Perhaps you could give a bit of help, not detracting from primary purpose of DMD of course
