how do you think about Ethereum's new approach?
they will not switch to pos immediately.
they will use POW+POS for a long time.
Qtum will use POS from the beginning

Will Qtum ever be available on bittrex or Poloniex?
i think it's possible.
but trading will not open until mainnet release.
There is no different thing with other Crytocurrency. I think Qtum will be listed in western exchanges

It's completely up to them, once the source code is released anyone is free to compile it and offer services.

Koreans have a lot of interest in Qtum. And I will invest 10BTC in Qtum
Thank you
Thank you

This will be a good opportunity for chinese investors but for the westerners i think you need to hold on to your saddles before jumping in. it has a good potential to be big, the transparency issue is still at question, numbers with signature in it can only prove so little.
how much transparency you get from ETH?
and also from satoshi?
it's a bubble time now.
only things matter right now, i hope Qtum get 100k people in their community in china.
then i will buy a lot.
i think these Chinese people will pump it like Ethereum.
why you worry about this?

I didn't when know the tokens will only be released in September, though I still have my reservations about the project but for the team to survive the FUD during their ICO is a big plus to the team
the FUD always happen in crypto.

I was wrong; stay away from Blockstream, Greg and Samson are toxic trolls.

from Qtum news letter :
Qtum Development Updates
Changes made through this week to the core wallet:
Bugs fixed:
* [Misc] Fixed a bug where Qtum would fail in some cases on OSX
* [RPC] Fixed a potential upstream bug where decodescript would sometimes cause a segfault and crash
* [Consensus/EVM] Fixed a bug where some EVM fields in the block header were not fully validated
Work completed:
* [Testing/RPC] Added automated tests for contract related RPC calls
* [Wallet/PoS] Added automatic PoS staking support
* [Wallet/PoS] Added "reserve balance" support, to opt-out a set amount of coins from being staked
* [Wallet/GUI] Added staking information to the Qt GUI
* [Testing/AAL] Added automated tests to verify the logic and edge cases for condensing transactions in the AAL
* [Testing/Misc] Changed Python QA tests to support new block header changes
* [Wallet/PoW] Added automatic PoW mining support (to be used only initially before release)
Ongoing in-progress work:
* [Consensus/EVM] Fixing a bug where a transaction could enter an out of gas state due to other gas consuming transactions in the block
Design work:
* [Consensus] Primary design work complete, initial implementation has begun. More details will be released later in a long-form article or blog post
* [Consensus/PoS] Secondary design work mostly complete. More details will be released later in a long-form article or blog post
Brett Fincaryk, the Community Manager for the Qtum Foundation, spoke at Mexico's local blockchain meetup educating the community about the Qtum project and our progress so far.

Are there updates on the listing of QTUM in the exchanges? I want to know when and at what exchanges it would be listed. I hope it is not just on the Chinese exchanges because we risk having our QTUM locked. The Chinese central bank still has not lifted the ban on cryptocoin deposits and withdrawals if I am not mistaken.
That's a good question. The exchanges that hosted our Crowdsale may open trading when the main network is released in September 2017. It's an open source project, any exchange can list Qtum.
As for the ban on Bitcoin withdrawals, yes it is still in effect. People in China speculate that no exchange wants to be the first to open withdrawals, because they're afraid they will be the first ones to get targeted by the PBOC, so they are all stuck in a waiting game. Whether this is true or not is anyone's guess. It appears people are able to buy Ethereum with their BTC and withdraw that.
It is still very risky. The investors of the ICO made cryptocoin investments in the form of bitcoin and ETH. So of course they also would want to have their investments back in BTC and ETH. How are they supposed to withdraw their investment if there is no Chinese exchange allowing cryptocoin withdrawals?
Do you have plans to negotiate a listing of QTUM in exchanges outside of China?
do not worry about this.
you can withdraw BTC and ETH.
I do not think that is true. If it is then it will be still too risky to trust a Chinese exchange when the Chinese central bank can order the exchanges who breaks the rules to shut down. Maybe some smaller Chinese exchanges will exit scam after they are ordered to stop running their exchange.
i think the Chinese exchanges have no big difference from other exchanges.
but you have a point, PBOC is a problem for some Chinese exchanges.

from the website
Qtum blocksize is 2MB and blocktime is 128s.
the TPS should be 9-10 times of BTC.
so for Qtum, the TPS should be 50 transactions/per second.
i think this is enough for the first 2 years.

This will be a good opportunity for chinese investors but for the westerners i think you need to hold on to your saddles before jumping in. it has a good potential to be big, the transparency issue is still at question, numbers with signature in it can only prove so little.
how much transparency you get from ETH?
and also from satoshi?
it's a bubble time now.
only things matter right now, i hope Qtum get 100k people in their community in china.
then i will buy a lot.
