Pretty solid wallet. Great job on it!

Anyone know why the wallet is trying to kill me on fees?
Please log a ticket it https://github.com/viacoin/viacoin/issues specifying the version you are using and steps to replicate.

I'm posting this here because in my opinion the VIA community could use some more "fun". I know that memes usually have a trollish touch, but when they're good they get shared a lot on social platforms like Twitter, Facebook, whatever. They receive attention. They engage people. Dogecoin probably is the best example for this viral power and while it was surely a lucky strike, the lesson to be learned here is that any PR is good PR.
I think it's another good way to further create some awareness and engagement that I haven't seen leveraged so far with VIA at all. Just my 2 cents
I just clicked, Antigravity lol

I feel a community consensus for merged mining....
Congrats for the winner position on Bitspark with over 1000 votes!
I will start trading some vias there once they open the wallet. Vericoin is the "runner up" https://bitspark.io/coinvoting and VIA is the WINNER.

My vote goes for +1 merged mining.
As far as I understand the advantages easily outweight possible risks right now. And even the risk of another hard fork: Drak and his team have just proven that they're more than capable of doing a smooth fork without any problems. I'm not a miner, but as a trader I love a secure/robust network, especially if the further adaption of Viacoin should flourish. Long story short: just do it. My 2 cents.

Christmas treechain! I love that haha

thougt more on merged mining. Came to the conclusion that addtional hash is super important.

I've just used the Android Viacoin wallet for the first time.
Very impressed :-)

Glad to hear it! I'm going to be pushing out an update to the play store over the next week to add exchange rates and a few other small things.
Cool, would be great if it could read clearwallet address balances also. why are you adding exchange rates ?
When sending/recieving you will be able to enter a fiat value and have the wallet convert that into VIA.

I tried out some combinations with auto-btc and via. When I put it on via it was fluctuating between 5 and 15 via a day! I was in fact refering to the auto-btc rate which has gone substantially down the last week http://www.cryptocurrencyminingreport.com/genesis-mining-payouts-november-26th-27th-0-40-0-21%EF%BC%81total-roi-54-05-72-days%EF%BC%81 . Ltc difficulty is shooting through the roof in november.

You might be interested in how the AntiGravityWave difficulty retargetting formula is behaving in practice since we changed at block 451001.
As you can see, it's significantly smoother.

thats nice! Its allways nice to see how things work out smoothely. I am wondering how this will affect my mining reward. Genesis-mining rewards really went down the last weeks.

There's probably also a concern that as Scrypt Asic mining tech advances so they become more powerful and lead to an increase in difficulty, sooner reward halving.
False, that is why you have difficulty retargetting. Whatever the hash power thrown at the network, there will be roughly 3600 blocks per day because the difficulty will adjust to speed up and slow down the rate of mining to reach the median.

Advantage of merged mining: more miners will know and mine viacoin
Disadvantage: higher sell pressure.
Disadvantage: higher sell pressure.
But how so because regardless of the number of miners, the same number of viacoin will be mined every 24 hours.

Higher sell pressure = cheaper coins = wider distribution = more stakeholders = Metcalfe = Advantage
But there must be some trade-off involved. Why doesn't XCP merge mine like NMC? Why didn't VIA launch with MM?
sha256 is more problematic in that respect (dunno cause of much higher hashrate of the parent coin or else) and it is important that mining is not as centralized during the transation. Now we have enough pools with merge mining support contrary to launch. Please correct me if I got something wrong.
