U got AuxPOW, so be happy with it. I havent seen any improvements to the code for a long time. Do u have any new features to supplement the older ones, originally planned for the new revision of Via?

I am now the proud owner of 2% of all VIA in existence. I'll keep buying at these prices and hold till 10k and beyond. VIA is going to have a very bright year.

Romano, did you try contacting reorder? He is the one who did the auxpow implementation for Viacoin back in 2014 and I believe he's experienced enough to do it again.
His price was higher.So kind of stuck with not much option.
Everyone who send a direct message has a similar price.
I ran a background check on some who are significantly cheaper but very "suspicious" & having my doubts when checking background.
If someone donates that would be great.
But Viacoin 0.13.2 will come with or without donations & that's a promise. So don't worry if there's a donation or not.
But losing a significant amount of the development funds is counter productive at these prices and market.
Btw Viacoin 0.10.11 Is planned to be released. This version will have a lot of security vulnerability & bug fixes.
Also an optimized wallet & more stable wallet. Yes Windows binaries will be available. I noticed Viacoin current version 0.10.9 doesn't even has Windows binaries.
After that Viacoin 0.13.2
There is always going to be a market for the Trump/Putin/Pot/Kanye/Doge style coins where people invest solely because of P&D nature of them. So be it.
Looking forward to the new update(s)
January 16, 2017, 02:56:39 PM
Expect Viacoin Core 0.10.11 to be released this week.
If you run a wallet, make sure to backup everything and export your private keys. Follow the regular process when you normally update the wallet for a coin you hold.

I found a developer who is able to do it for a decent payment.
$5.1k aka $5100 worth of Bitcoins || BTC6.5
I know of an experienced dev who is familiar with AUXPOW who I'm sure can do it at a much more realistic price.
I'd be more than happy to contribute at least .25 BTC to the fund assuming there is a game plan here and good people working on it.

That's insanely expensive - who is this dev?

Today all the updates for Viacoin 0.13.2 got pushed to the Viafresh repository.
However as most of you know, merged mining is a task that requires another developer who is specialized in merged mining & familiar with 0.13.2&Segwit.
I found a developer who is able to do it for a decent payment.
$5.1k aka $5100 worth of Bitcoins || BTC6.5
Now this will be huge when Viacoin adopts SegWit & will be released.
I would appreciate it if some of you could donate to reach $5.1k as target.
Developer fund donation address: 19Vh7WnR6KuiHhdi3d9oxuz7YbCqKAnzy5
Current balance (0.13946 BTC)
Remember that this is good news. A strong other developer will be great for Viacoin !

Fixes have been made to the Viacoin-Seeder
What is the Viacoin-seeder ?
============================
Viacoin-seeder is a crawler for the Viacoin network, which exposes a list
of reliable nodes via a built-in DNS server.
Features:
* regularly revisits known nodes to check their availability
* bans nodes after enough failures, or bad behaviour
* keeps statistics over (exponential) windows of 2 hours, 8 hours,
1 day and 1 week, to base decisions on.
* very low memory (a few tens of megabytes) and cpu requirements.
* crawlers run in parallel (by default 24 threads simultaneously).
Fixes & Optimization
============================
1. The DNS parser of the Viacoin seeder was vulnerable to a dos attack.
A crafted DNS req could trigger infinite recursive function calls.
This exploit could lead to a stack overflow.
The vulnerability is fixed.
However I noticed a lot of Altcoins if not the majority that have seeders are vulnerabile.
Most altcoins use a seeder. Bad altcoins don't have seeders & you usually have to add nodes.
2. The protocol timeouts have adjusted to improve the seeder.
A commit has been made to avoid connecting to non valid ipv4 ranges.
3. a bug fix to fix negative responses.
Previously if the resolver was asked for a record it didn't have, it would return a response with a NS-record in the authority section.
4. Increase the TTL
5. Wait for more than 1 single address to respond
6. DNS will listen on ipv6 instead of ipv4
Seeder dos exploit that could have been used.

I also hope to gain a bit more trust by the people who are just watching from the side line
Just generally, or was there someone specific, in mind? January 14, 2017, 05:25:43 AM
That's great Romano. I can't wait for the release!
January 14, 2017, 04:13:17 AM
Good job Romano. It's not an easy task you've taken on. Good to see via making some headway. Rooting for you man.
January 13, 2017, 10:14:10 PM
Viacoin is good, long term it will be trading on poloniex if you keep the decent volume, therefore we will have profits in long term
