there will be a main-net package released for the launch. it will be out well before launch to ensure that everyone can get it set up without any issues. i can send you the link once its released through private message, and it will be posted here in the OP as well.

dev should also post a certain block's hash (block 100 for example) when it launches and if yours is the same - you are on.

Will you release a new version of the packages before main net lauch? or we should use the same programs for test-net mining? What configurations will we need to change to gets things working?
Hope someone can clear this up

Block high (number) if it's over 72k you are on testnet

How can I know (or ensure) that I am mining on actual testnet, not a fork or something?

price stimated?

thank you. its been added to my list. many MANY thanks for contributing to the test net!!

we have discussed Proof of Stake, but for the time being we are concentrating on Proof of Work. a stakeholder with SOIL in their wallet WILL have rights to vote on the application of evolutions to the platform, etc once we have enough coins minted and distributed to ensure a fair democracy. things that could be decided by votes are also questions regarding block reward halving, or implementation of proof of stake or a hybrid of PoW/PoS down the road. proof of stake algorithms are significantly more complex than those for proof of work, and thus far, there hasnt been anything implemented on the ethereum-platform based coins for it, although "punitive proof of stake" (slasher 2.0) ideas have been tossed around. the ethereum platform is still in its infancy, and while we are watching how PoS could be implemented, theres nothing on the immediate horizon.

we will be, in the next day or so, be closing down the testnet and preparing for the main net launch. thank you to everyone who has helped us by mining, sending transactions, and hosting nodes. your assistance has been amazing and working with this community has been incredible. we will announce the mining bounties and node hosting bounties very soon after we close the test net. you guys have done an amazing job and nearly 175 000 test net coins were minted! we will be releasing the main net package soon after and will need those who have bounties coming to provide me with their main-net wallet addresses so that as soon as we launch i will be able to transfer those funds into your respective accounts. i will endeavour to have those deposited within your accounts within an hour of the launch (it will only be 1PM where im at, so ill still be hyper-fueled by caffeine) ill announce the bounty rates tomorrow once we have finalized them. and naturally, those debits from the community reserve will be posted in the online ledger immediately after theyre deposited in the bounty holders accounts, as well, in the interest of full transparency.

like all of you, im incredibly excited about the launch, and will be counting down the nanoseconds until that moment. this is the first cryptocurrency with which ive become this involved with the development of, and we have much more to do. its a bit overwhelming at times, the number of things still sitting on my to-do list, but you have all been so incredibly patient and understanding as we go thru the growing pains of a new currency. i will be available, long long LONG after the launch to answer any questions, and once we HAVE launched, we will need stakeholders to step up and help us form an advisory committee that will help steer the future development of SOIL. ive already begun speaking with agriculture industry representatives about what we can do for them and have received many positive responses so far. a major meat poultry farmer in the netherlands using "automated behaviour monitors" and a "bio-digester" (which produces green energy and provides power to nearly 350 nearby households) with whom my family has close connections has already expressed interest in integrating his farm manager software as a DAPP on the block chain, although implementation of that will be several months down the road, we will have a stable blockchain ready for him.

so, my question now, is what sort of features would YOU like to see added in? we've taken everything you have said so far and are working at implementing everything we can, and want to make SOILsafe and gsoil the industry standards, but, is there something youve seen in another altcoin wallet that youd like to see in SOILsafe?

one of my ideas that may be a medium distance from implementation would be what id like to call SOILvault, an online backup utility, cryptographically protected, using a PIN number or something, to keep your coins safe from loss due to hardware failure, corrupted wallet.dat files, loss of the private key, etc. its something that ive noticed on message boards thats a bit of frustration to people, and would be a very useful utility. of course, thats going to take a lot of work to build something like that, but its an example of the sort of ideas id like to hear about. we want to be able to continually improve SOIL.

have a wonderful evening!

you are planning and implementation of POS?
POW-POS

I got 100 coins on the CPU test network
what is the exchange rate of the coins will be exchanged to compensate for new?

OP updated.

@soil
Can you add me to the OP, please?

Seems, you are the only one who has problems with the current version.
I would suggest you to delete/backup your Soil folder and making a resync.
(e.g. C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Soil)

If this is still not working, here are some links to older versions.
Let us know which one is working for you.

Thanks

v4
v5alpha
v5beta
v5

No fix for this? If not will older compiles be available at launch for those of us this doesn't work for?

Launch 2015-10-17 9:00 GMT, right?

Is my time or the counter time wrong?
