This is a dead shitcoin. You don't want to buy it, earn it, or even to get it for free any more than you would want gonorrhea.

Can you earn ION or is buying it the only way?

Yep to be safe go with Q1 2021

Is that the same fork that was supposed to happen in Q1 or is it a different fork and the other one was forgotten?

Maybe they meant Q1 of 2021, or 2025... yeah, let's go with that.

Devs just posted an update  

ionosphere: ION 5 Preview
https://news.ionomy.com/ionosphere-ion-5/

So, we’re in May now. Q1 passed a long time ago, and it’s nearly halfway through Q2. What’s happened in ionoland?

Well, not much. Some coins were added to their exchange. They tried to pick up shitcoin refugees from the Steem/Hive split. They made a slightly fancier looking website for gamegrid, but didn’t actually launch it. They hosed their hosted masternode service and replaced them with Sharenodes, which Korvas will no doubt tell you is innovative magic, but actually seemed to annoy some of the few people left in their community a bit - mainly because they didn’t really communicate the change. They did some airdrops. No one really appeared to notice.

The team seemingly gave up on trying to give official updates, and now appear to be relying on a community volunteer to do extremely dull 15 minute YouTube videos every 3-4 weeks so he can talk in an English monotone and bore the 10 or so people left who actually care to death.

Exciting, this ain’t. But it is hilarious. 

There’s no sign of the fork. It was apparently ‘ready’ a few weeks ago, but who knows if that’s ready ready, or ionomy ready, which is to say not really ready at all. Presumably the ‘team’ have been caught in stasis and believe it’s still Q1, or have been rendered entirely unable to reach for their keyboards to keep their almost non existent community up to date. Someone asked outright back at the end of February if the roadmap was still correct, and they were told an unequivocal yes, everything is still correct (though via the proxy of their community liaison). Whereupon Korvas eagerly rubbed his hands together and exclaimed that it was going to be a busy 5 weeks but, gee wizz, he just couldn’t wait for all those years of work to come to fruition. Or something. Probably.

Ignoring the fact that the roadmap was already behind by that point anyway, if this malarkey doesn’t demonstrate that this team can’t project manage or even communicate for toffee, I don’t know what does.

So will they ever fork? Who knows. But I’m damn sure almost no one cares at this point.

ionomy Exchange is offering another airdrop to HIVE holders

https://news.ionomy.com/another-hive-airdrop/

Ionomy 100% behind the HIVE community 

Only, what, 3 months late? And still listing the seemingly dead/mute/entirely silent LuckyTap games as a partner? This is basically just a reskin of the website they still have up at gamegrid.network anyway.

Thank you, Yep irrelevant of opinions stay safe too. These next few months are going to be tough on everybody.

GameGrid has been updated. My guess is this will launch shortly after the hard fork.

https://gamegrid.pro/


Years of work finally coming to fruition 

GameGrid was promised for ‘[the] first part of Jan’ and the fork for February. Then the first part of January passed with no GameGrid, and the narrative was changed to ‘everything needs to be on the Dash rebase before the GameGrid launches’. The fork was ‘a couple of weeks delayed’ in February. This, along with a couple of other items, makes up the majority of their Q1 goals.

At this point they’ll probably eventually either just squeeze the fork out before the end of the quarter, or they’ll miss it by a couple of weeks, but honestly that’s beside the point. This is just one example of a great many where the team massively over egg how much they can get done in a short space of time. This is not an outlier - it’s the norm in Ionomy land.

The world clearly has bigger issues to deal with right now than solving a problem that arguably never really needed solving at all in blockchain<>gaming. Matlack and co now have the unfortunate task of launching an extremely niche product at a time where there will likely be even less interest than there may have been anyway, and it’s unlikely to have been popular at the best of times.

Regardless of opinions on this project, I genuinely hope you and your families stay safe. Take care of yourselves.

Wasn't it promised in February?

What happened to the Gamegrid thing, is that also launching in April? I'm assuming quarters are 4 months old on the ionomy calendar and April belongs to first quarter. Am I right? Start working on your excuse for May.


Use the onion link if you need it but please avoid laundering money - it's against the law in most jurisdictions. Avoid illegal activities and pay your taxes even if you mix coins to protect your privacy.

The fork has been on testnet for almost a week, looking solid. I'm thinking implementation will be early April.

BTW. You should probably look at your money laundering link as it appears dead  - 502 Bad Gateway

Not out of the sky, out of the only exchange that still has some ION trades: https://global.bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-ION

The price is down to 330 now and the 24-hour volume is $600. #1184 on CMC.

How's that fork coming?

A 4-year legacy troll plucking numbers out of the sky to fit their crusty old narrative   

After all these years still singing the same song 

As Master Shifu once said "Just because you can look, doesn't mean you can see"

Cue whining..... Price doesn't matter, the volume is irrelevant and the team are doing a great job !!!

350sat and $500 daily volume... every time I look at it this shit seems to be more dead than the previous time.

Cue korvas whining that price doesn't matter, volume doesn't matter, the "team" is doing great.

Don't know. You're talking about coins that were created in April 2016, that's like 4 years ago !!!!

Unlike you, someone that's just sat on the sidelines these past 4 years, I've been an investor. In all this time I can count the number of times Inomy have screwed me over on No hands. As an investor, I have zero concern over what they did with their premine.

Thanks for looking out for me though I appreciate the concern.

and they wont ever stake their premine to make more coins which would be stake competing against thei investors? that right too?

Exactly

so ionomy will never use their coins, nodes etc to ever vote in proposals relating to ion proposals.  is that what you are saying as well? cause that would make them like justin?

You visit during a massive transition of pretty much everything

The Ion team and community can be found on discord https://discordapp.com/invite/X4cugt6 so go there if you have questions

The Ionomy Platform https://ionomy.com/en/aff/46cbe5fa1d262e23665191a7c7864072

GameGrid will be launching at the end of Q1. http://gamegrid.network/

The first Game via GameGrid that will support ION is Quick Shift Racing. Older games can be played but no longer reward ION until they transition across to GameGrid.

GameGrid = any developer who is familiar with Unity can integrate ION into their product

My personal favourite is Rumble Arena which will at some point introduce ION tournaments

ION 5.0.1 now available on testnet
https://news.ionomy.com/ionosphere-3-13/

Assuming no major problems I would expect the hard fork to happen in the next couple of weeks.

The upcoming fork will bring big changes to the ION blockchain, paving the way for tokens and the electron wallet

Now had a chance to play with the new wallet



What you see is here is a wallet simultaneously CPU mining tokens as well as staking ION



So far I've mined 2683 electrons, Impressive stuff when you consider it's all on a single blockchain

ionomy has converted all ION Hosted Masternodes to ION Sharenodes (IONSX)

If you held one ION Hosted Masternode, you now have 20,000 IONSX in your account.

Sharenodes are the most flexible way to earn masternode rewards. You can buy or sell in any quantity at any time. You're not locked into a 20,000 ION position and you're not locked into a 1-month hosting contract.

For the next 30 days, ionomy is selling and buying IONSX at nearly a 1:1 ratio.  That means this is the cheapest and most flexible form of masternode hosting around. It also means that if you prefer to sell all your Sharenodes for the base currency, you can sell them back to ionomy at no loss.

Daily rewards and flexible masternode management with Sharenodes is an ionomy exclusive.
