Hi ThinkingOutLoud,
Thanks for the great coin. Just wanted to let you know, since switching to the updated wallet my incoming transactions no longer show under unconfirmed on the overview tab. I'm running the wallet on Windows 7 Pro x64 with SP1.

Nice job on the wallet update Dev.  Looks like this is definitely a coin to hold for the long term.  Keep up the good work!   

As we have seen many times users are tired of the Dev disappears. You are doing very well @ThinkingOutLoud. You are here helping users and working on GEN every day, to give new features, more value. You know i keep this post open it many times a day to watch the news. I congratulate you again. Keep up the good work .

Keep working hard DEV, and people will start to notice. It can be tough for one guy to start a coin by himself, maybe set some more aggressive bounties or get someone else to helpÉ

The guaranteed stake event has ended.  We've had zero claims;)

People who purchased coins during the event and moved them to their wallets for staking for at least 48 hours afterwards and have not been able to stake may still claim their guaranteed stakes, but the event is over for new coin purchases. Thank everyone that participated;)

Thank you. It's things like this that keep me going.

I don't comment that often on my feelings about any particular coin, but I have to say I like this one.  I haven't seen a Dev in a long time that works trough issues, listens to the community, and continues to better a coin.  In a world of instant gratification I like the progress here, seems well thought out, Dev takes input from everyone and is active.  Slow and steady wins the race my friends!

keep it up Dev, I am watching this one

For masternodes, if you mean like Darkcoin's masternodes where nodes hold 1k coins which earns them money and helps tie up the available supply ... I don't really think we have an issue there. Every one is a node in that sense. There's a reason < 10% of coins are on Bittrex. Holders CAN'T move them without significantly reducing the amount of GEN they earn each day. A big holder moving a lot of coins costs them hundreds, if not thousands of coins - coins that go to other holders and ultimately compete against them. Every coin you miss out on staking for yourself gets staked by someone else. Every coin that goes to someone other than you competes against you for the next block. Every coin you miss out on staking for yourself gets staked by someone else. Every stack of coins you move loses it's weight, crippling it's ability to stake for hours or days depending on how many coins were in the stack.

GEN is a coin that only rewards strong, consistent holders - and the vast majority of coins held by consistent holders can safely be considered 'off the market'. Because to those people, they aren't coins, they're mining rigs that they're using to produce coins.


I agree we need more participation. I even went so far as to offer bounties for tweets some days back. Lots of people are watching GEN, holding GEN, and Staking GEN... but nobody seems to be talking openly about GEN. It's the silence that puts the drag on the market. That's why we saw a market cap today of below $1000. Everyone's talking about other coins, while everyone's quietly holding GEN and the price sits dirt cheap.

I'm not a marketing expert. I'm a programmer and a developer. I can do the gruntwork under the hood of the coin and I can come up with great concepts for the coin. But when it comes to getting people interested and excited about us, I can only do so much, and besides, as everyone knows, nothing beats word-of-mouth. If nobody's talking, and everyone's just sitting back and waiting... ... Idk.

Gen's been going strong for two weeks now. I've been working hard every day to develop and improve GEN and get us out there, and I'll keep working, but there's only so much I can do alone. A dev screaming 'hey, I'm great! check me out!' looks just like every other shitcoin dev out there trying to run a pump and dump. That's not me. That's not what I'm trying to do here. And if GEN is ever going to get off the ground it's going to be because people are talking about it, not because I'm shouting 'look at me!'.  Nobody trusts a trumpeting dev anymore. But when we have an active community... that's when people start paying attention.

Good questions @ThinkingOutLoud... What do you think about the masternodes?. A signature campaign would do more users participate. To encourage people to use GEN and give more value add the coin to list of https://cryptocloudhosting.org, it is an interesting place to buy hosting and much more.

I got a question about what we're doing for the future. I'll have to put together a road list at some point in the near future - just been working so much on the coin itself that it feels like a distraction. Still, I decided my response was something everyone would likely be interested in, so I'm pasting it here as well.

"Personally I'm working on updating the ui and improving the functionality of existing features. After that I'm planning on implementing an alias sidechain so that people can register addresses to aliases and be able to send each other coins directly to their alias instead of their address. Trying to improve ease of use. After that I was going to work on taking QR Code inputs from the wallet itself and standardizing the parameters in those so that when we seek vendor acceptance the actual payment process can be simple and streamlined across all platforms - desktop and mobile wallets will use the same system.  While this is going on I'm hoping to find someone that can get mobile wallets up and running on the team.

After that I'll pursue markets while developing 'subscription services'. I plan to implement the ability to subscribe to different purpose driven sidechains. Then I can put out the framework that others can build on, and others can develop services for the coin as well, and all users have to do to access those services is to 'subscribe' to that sidechain. This can be a paid or unpaid subscription. I could see paying for a subscription to a games sidechain, but not so much for subscribing to a general social network chain.

From there, developmentally, we'll want to start making the blockchain more manageable for end users, so I'll start exploring options for making that less resource heavy as by this time it will have started growing reasonably large.

While working on that, marketing and getting the coin out there. Trying to get vendor acceptance of the coin and developer interest in developing for the sidechain platform interface.

After that continue to make improvement to the coin, eliminating cruft and optimizing code and enhancing security wherever possible. Maintenence, marketing, and improving the user experience. That's basically where it's at for GEN."

Now it works perfectly mates

Sent a pm. He's pretty good about getting back to me. Hopefully it will be back up soon.

explorer down?

Great work again Dev. Spanish OP updated with new translations and latest wallets.

Thank you very much for give me reward.

PM sent.

Thanks

Np.


I think we have enough translations for the moment, so I'm ending the bounties for new translations. If I want more, I'll ask for specific ones. Thanks.

Thanks man.

i got my bounty.

I have done the : Indian (Hindi) Thread -  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-genstake-gen-stake-stake-mine-scrypt-powpos-1091396

But not getting my bounty.

nevermind, its not much
