Hey,

As announced the update is ready to be released and I'll sum up the current situation of silkcoin a bit like I did last time.

Just to put a timeline so new comers know where we are, we're now block 30 000 and it's been 20 days since launch in about 12 days we'll pass in the last POW phase. We're now at the 3rd update each time bringing a lot of new features.

About the eco-system
We've been quite busy recruiting new devs to work on the eco-system. We got many applications but not a lot of serious ones, 2 more very active devs are now on the team working exclusively toward the development of this decentralized world.
As for progress we're pretty sure we'll be able to release the social network and exchange about a month or two after last phase has ended.
We're currently doing stress tests because we were a bit concerned about scaling, but the results are more than positive. With more than 10 million account name registered the size of the database will still be quite light (way liter than the bitcoin one). Also our system shares data via p2p over nodes , lot's of data are stored equaly so you will never have to stock too much data.
Before the first beta, we'll get out a white paper on the system, it's just not the priority at the moment. We'll talk more about this next week, releasing new screenshots to the public.

About anon features, we've explained ourself many times before : we're waiting for this race to end and we'll integrate the best option. In the meantime we prefer spending our time improving your experience, building the eco-system and new features. We don't want to put Silkcoin at risk integrating a non tested feature just for the pump, when it's ready have no doubt it will be integrated in no time. On the other side, expect a Tor integration quite soon in the upcoming updates.


Marketing is slowly starting and we already saw a great spike in Silkcoin price and adopters, imagine where we'll be standing in a few weeks. Giveaways are going on pretty much everywhere if you're looking for some head on twitter or facebook.

First of all the upcoming marketing news, we're releasing our dedicated forum at www.Mysilkcoin.com this will become a big Silkcoin center. And news about a BIG contest will be coming soon this week and a lot of other updates. So stayed tuned a lot of news are coming in the next few days.


Now about the update.
The main new feature is the ability to always know how much you have, spend, use, stake. When you spend crypto-currencies you never know how much you spend because you have to check the price of bitcoin to USD and then check the price of Bitcoin to Silkcoin and then maybe if all those price stayed stable you may have a chance to send expected sum.
Never again with Silkcoin :We integrated a new button, when pressed it will convert your wallet to $ or bitcoins, also when you send coins the price is updated live in a label in bitcoins and USD. This is a major feature to ease the use of Silkcoin as a currency.




And YES the notifications are also converted if the button activated.


Now let's see the other new feature : the next step in the market tab was of course to put graphics in there. Also put the last orders history, so here's a screenshot of the new tab in market data. Poloniex is coming soon but we had problems with their ssl certificate so they're in hold, Mintpal is ready for when we get integrated. We'll add a "Total" tab when we'll have a few more exchanges.

You'll notice a few other changes as an example statistic page has changed a bit, they are minor so I won't expose all of them as we don't brag about small unoticable changes like a lot of other coins. And fixed a few core issues, ie the way the market data is pulled.


The wallet will have a WHOLE redesign for the next update. We're starting to get so much features it's getting messy.

Go download the new version now, mac will be available soon and optimized for the next release :


Last words : once again thanks to all of you for this great community we're building together and as always expect weekly updates of the wallet.

Oh and go register right now on www.Mysilkcoin.com !

I have a dumb question:

To maximize staking: should I send all my coins to myself in one address?


Also:
some spelling mistakes in new tutorial page:
In settings->options you can set Reservebalance (it's the amount you don't want to stack)
In settings->options->display you can tick coin control, so you can control what coin you send (don't send old coins)
In settings you can unlock wallet for stacking only if you encrypted it.

Should be stake rather than stack?


P.S: dev I think you are onto it and applaud the way you are doing things. I am so sick of crappy devs that it makes me want to throw a party to celebrate a dev that is actually developing a great! coin. Thanks.

Thanks for the mistakes we'll correct that asap no real work has been done on this menu yet. Yea I forgot to talk about the tutorial menu because this is sort of a mockup, it will be way more complete and sexy in the next update.

As for staking yea I believe if you send a whole amount to yourself it will make a cleaner stake. But be careful not sending from this whole sum with coin control. Also it will reset your coin-age when you do this transaction to yourself.

edit : since POS block generation include luck it's maybe better to have multiple stake with different coin age, i'm not quite sure about all that I'll ask the devs tomorrow
