Thanks! I have added a new project to translate viacoin.org in several languages.

Not sure if it is useful to translate QT Translation 0.10.x, because the languages are already available in the wallets. Whats the reason that this project is available?

I've added you as an administrator.

@Drak, I see that you are administrator of the viacoin project in transifex. We need some support setting up Transifex for the Dutch language and we also like to translate viacoin.org in several other languages. Please see PM.

Join Viacoin Planet at https://viacoinplanet.slack.com to discuss and create more awareness and adoption for Viacoin.

I think you definitely supported Truthful's high school metaphor (which was actually a simile),    with the ending of your post. And you are not so respectful either.

In general, though, I agree with Truthful's sentiment; speaking for myself, I supported VIA as a bet on btcdrak and Peter doing things on VIA that Bitcoin would never do, in particular TreeChains.

Helped me either way, because I had way more value in BTC than VIA, but if I knew that VIA would not even be much of a test chain for BTC innovation, I would not have put any BTC in it.

And doing what Bitcoin wouldn't, was certainly how btcdrak presented VIA back then, especially regarding Peter's involvement. Maybe I just misunderstood his intentions, or something happened, but I doubt it. I think it's just that most people don't present their true intentions, especially where money is involved...

So, for what it's worth, I don't think as highly of VIA and btcdrak at this point, but I did bet on them freely, and lost the investment so far.

Lesson learned: don't bet on personalities and most of what they say they plan to do. Ultimately though, every investment requires some trust in its salespeople.
If none of us trusted Satoshi's vision and intent, (not to imply that anyone involved with VIA is Satoshi-grade) none of us would be here, or made the money we made in crypto. 

So, as someone else said here, I just hope that what goes around always comes around to all of us - good and otherwise.
Happy holidays!

Yes, I have seen it. Thanks!
I have just send you a request about the Dutch language via transifex.

As you probably saw, I added you.

Hi Drak, are you maintaining https://www.transifex.com/viacoin/viacoin/ ? I already requested access for Dutch translation.

Unfortunately Slack.com does not allow public domains to be used as a sign up mode. My assumption is that most people here have a public domain. And I have to add private domains manually.

So please send your mailadress to [email protected] (mailadress was edited on 7th of december) and I will send you an invitation.

Thanks for the tip drak. I will look into it.
I would also like to mention that GooseNL was involved from the beginning. Thanks for your support!
He will also be an admin and moderate on Viacoin Planet.

Brilliant idea! Maybe you could just set the channel to self invitable? Up to you.

Right here!

ohhhh smigooll where are youuuu

We have took the initiative to start a better place to discuss and develop ideas to create awareness and adoption for Viacoin:

ViacoinPlanet.slack.com

Introduction Viacoin Planet

Viacoin is technically one of the strongest and most robust Cryptocurrencies and deserves greater awareness. At this point most energy has gone into the development of Viacoin, but to create more awareness of its potential, it needs the help of its supporters. This platform is a way to explore and promote opportunities and application possibilities for Viacoin.
The purpose of this platform is to attract business to the Viacoin Blockchain. We like to do it with you! Everybody is welcome, even for a laugh.

we have made some channels and also have set up some rules – to avoid the trolling that made Viacoin-Bitcointalk dysfunctional for promotional efforts. Our role is to facilitate this channel and keep the conversation positive and in service of promoting viacoin.

•   But most of all, let’s learn from each other and in the meantime have some fun

Here I agree that the market capitalization can not objectively evaluate the degree of the coin. It takes time, that everyone could take their place, because now cryptocurrency so much competition and everyone must lure users than to itself

What makes this critique sting so badly is that the truth pokes out sharply in places.

Btcdrak's explanation that the pathway of innovation flows from bitcoin to viacoin is disheartening.

Can there be a philosophy change with VIA? Alts should be an incubator for groundbreaking technology, not merely a test tube for incremental improvements to bitcoin itself.

yeah i got a good chunk this cheap over time, cry me a river

so why do you even care what coins others are interested in, are you a broken busybody?
this is one of like ten alts i'm interested in (ranging from low/mid/higher market caps),
i ignore the rest instead of wasting time complaining about those

lol.



good luck with that.

its working as advertised, developer is active, so no its not dead
sure market cap is low at the moment (there are at least a hundred completely useless shitcoins with much higher market cap and that includes alts with market cap in millions)
someone is going through a lot of trouble to make sure market cap stays below 100k
so instead of fudding you should use this opportunity to grab some for cheap,
i sure did sneak in some bids to grab a few here and there

Perhaps if you were more of an "autist" you would understand why some lines of code are vastly more valuable and difficult to produce than others.

We all knew PT's dev work would explicitly benefit both BTC and VIA; that was the deal all along.  It's only 'shocking' 'scandalous' news to you.

VIA got CLTV months before Bitcoin.  The market didn't care, but that's no excuse for you to whine about it.  The point is Via had (and still has) its chance to shine.

Your 20/20 hindsight is asinine and immature.  If VIA/XCH had gone to the moon thanks to their advanced features, 600 BTC would have been a small price to pay.

But unfortunately that hasn't happened yet, so now you feel entitled to retroactively pooh-pooh what has been accomplished, as if shepherding CLTV from concept to battle-tested code is some small thing?

IDC about your lame high school:cliques metaphor.  It has no value beyond providing a vent for your pouting.

You should please go sodomize yourself with retractable batons.
