Very interesting coin.  As a saver I find the PoS concept to be very appealing.  I'm glad I found this one during the initial rollout where I can accumulate a bunch of these fairly quickly before the PoW drops to 1/block.  I'll be waiting to see how the PoS works in a week or so after I hit 20 days.  I suppose it also help that I love mint.

Great job on fixing the wallet. It's been working for me but we've had so many post in this thread of it not working for others.
Has the new wallet been posted on Reddit?

There are bounties for those who compile latest Linux or Mac versions.

Need to fork some advanced coin control features from other stake wallets like Hobonickels, or have development/bounties for that stuff too.

Seems like there's probably enough work in this area done already that you don't need to reinvent the wheel and can just use already existing code from other wallets.

Nice work on the new wallet.
 1.3 starts to sync for me in under  20 seconds , previous version used to take from 10 to 20 minutes.

What should we do for Mintcoin to be added to coinmarketcap.com? i just posted a message in their bitcointalk thread.

For a Coin to be added to coinmarketcap, it must have at least 1 month of age, which is not the case for Mintcoin.
Where did you learn this? Because you're wrong.  Tongue Karmacoin made it on there in a week, and it's a crap clone with nothing going for it except kimoto gravity well (which it didn't even have at the date that it was added).

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/coinmarketcapcom-market-cap-rankings-of-all-cryptocurrencies-199685

we are pending. They need mintpal API access.

How can we get the mintpall api to them because if the coin is on, coinmarketcap alot of people will proberly see it, for the first time.
And maybe they will get interested, But great news about the new wallet.
Soon another block reward halving, any price speculations?

Btw, I see that Mintcoin can go pass Topcoin, which is smth like rapid Mintcoin first stage (PoW) part.

I'm ready to write some article about Mintcoin to promote it, but I don't know, where to publish it or where it could be accepted.

My English is not perfect, but I'm trying my best. My native language is latvian; I am from Latvia. Hope someone knows, where it is Cheesy

Can you give me a rundown on why checkpoints were added?

For people who don't know how Bitcoin works, it's the dark secret of crypto.  Everything was supposed to be decentralized where you just launch the coin then never have to touch it again, but they added checkpoints even in the real Bitcoin client to avoid certain attack vectors.  The attack vector is more spam related than 51% attack related, but checkpoints obviously addresses that too.  The bare minimum of checkpointing currently used is to just upload a snapshot of most recent block chain consensus whenever the client is updated.  I think this is actually a rational move, and not a big deal, but all other more intense check pointing should be abolished.  

I haven't looked into it much, but I think Quark even has some kind of real time checkpointing constantly updated since their method of distribution is a complete failure and they can't secure a block chain with a PoW coin with no rewards for mining it.

By the way, the mint wallet really needs coin control added ASAP.  It's required for a proof of stake coin.

So much opportunities with day trading to rise Mintcoin stake, but it's so stressful process. At night I am dreaming about coins, trades and so on. This is it! Let the Radeons just keep mining some more coins for me. And let's take some rest.

I must say that I am utterly impressed by the logos. So many alt-coins have horrendous logos, but the Mint logos are something else.
