One of the reasons I encouraged the dev to let me speak about what is coming is because I wanted to give those who have been long-term supporters of this coin a chance to decide if they wanted to get in to this coin more before the new wallet goes live.
It is a way of rewarding your patience by giving you enough information to decide, but not too much that the short-term speculators jump all over it and push the price all over the place.
So there are two factors in play right now. How much you want to be in financially and how much you are willing to do your bit, organisation-wise, in letting him dev while we promote and build the coin's stature so that the new features get the attention they will, quite definitely, deserve.

1 million buy order at 600 bittrex
Nice to see trade volumes up on Bittrex & Poloniex but I still believe we could use (at this stage) one more exchange of size
to promote Bitstar and offer support for multipool buy orders, which brings me to the following point....
Get Bitstar added to the hitbtc.com coin voting list. You can register an account to get 10X vote/otherwise each vote = 1
1. https://hitbtc.com/vote (Scroll to the bottom & suggest)
2. Add link { http://bitstarcoin.com/ }
hitbtc.com compared to other exchanges >> http://www.exchangewar.info/

new exchanges are always nice too have... but being on poloniex and bittrex is already good! not many coins are listed on both these days...
Read my response to fabula and get a clue. Maintaining the "status quo" for the sake of familiarity and comfort is the epitome of ignorance and self delusion.

No rush.....this is not a pump and dump coin(except this buy wall at 6btc that seems someones who want pump and then dump).
We have time to get listed on mintpal.

No offense to your comment, but I don't think you have any understanding how close Bitstar was to being de-listed on Bittrex back in late May / early June. I have the 70 sat buy orders to show it. "Mintpal" is a nice fantasy that requires 20000 more votes to get to #1 (and yes I vote several times daily).
So......Instead of day dreaming about Mintpal >> We can get this coin onto one or more exchanges that could help everyone out sooner rather than later. If you have been paying attention in the last week or so even Dev has had problems dealing with Poloniex and Bittrex for multipool purchases.
Show a little wisdom in understanding that options are a good thing instead of simply stating "No rush.....this is not a pump and dump coin"

It's also worth reminding you all about this little fact:
Most of the coins not currently in circulation will be 'mined' by those who are staking over the next couple of years. That's like owning a mining rig, simply by buying and holding BITS.

It may not be a "game changer"
...
So, now you know that things are definitely going to step up a gear, it's time for you to do a little more than HOLD, you are going to have contribute ideas and make a little effort to allow the dev to do his dev thing while the promotion and marketing and whole 'social network' stuff, can be down to the rest of the BITS community.
Absolutely agree with this. A solid developer(s) is the cornerstone of any good crypto-currency, but no one person can do it all alone. We all know this coin needs more promotion, and with new features nearing release, it's a good time to tell everyone about it. Use your twitter accounts, chat up your friends on FaceBook, generate some excitement, and if you have something to contribute, do what you can. Merchants, web developers, coders, traders, miners, artists - whatever your talent(s) we can use the help.
And don't forget the multipool people. That's one of the simplest ways you can support the coin if you have the hash to spare.

It may not be a "game changer"
Ok, I want to clarify a few things here about what is happening with BITS, as I'm sure many of you are perking up at the idea of the coin finally being recognised for the commitment and effort the dev has been consistently giving these last few months.
Firstly, I'm not part of the dev team, I'm just someone who threw a few ideas at him a while back to see how he would run with them as this coin has always struck me as solid, but oh-so-quiet.
I have to say, right out, I absolutely disagree with his comment that the new features will not be a "game changer". In my honest opinion, I believe they are going to do exactly that, for BITS and, when they can figure out how to do it, other coins that will no doubt want to snatch some ideas from the new BITS wallet.
Whilst I do not feel it is my place to discuss the specifics of what is coming, I am able to confidently state that some of the new features will blow your tiny minds.
To give you a better idea of the direction I believe this coin project is going to go in, I would say look towards those other, more well-known coins, that are bringing value-added services to their stable in order to provide better functionality and greater utility. Whilst some of the new features will be centralised and managed by the dev, for now, the long term goals are to incorporate them into p2p decentralised structures.
I am sure you will recognise that it is far more valuable to have the features made available now that can bring so much more value across the board, to this coin, than to hold back and wait until the p2p advancements allow them to be implemented.
Whilst some coins are obsessing about Anonymous transactions, the rest of us just want something we can use, that we can play with and create a market for. That isn't to say that Anon isn't going to happen, it's just not what is going to elevate this coin above the rest.
Speaking of Anon, I had already mentioned to the dev that his continued anonymity might cause some reservation in those who would otherwise back the project and, like most of us, whilst he did think about it, he has said he *really* would rather not have to 'out' himself on the internet. I think this aspect is still a little controversial but I do absolutely understand, given the nature of some of the psychologies on display around this forum.
What I would say, instead, is that maybe we need to help him out ourselves in this regard and find some people who would be willing to become the public face of this project. That way he could privately communicate with them and keep his personal details offline, while the coin would gain a better image.
No, I'm not doing it, you lot are 'mostly harmless', but some are batshit crazy.
So, now you know that things are definitely going to step up a gear, it's time for you to do a little more than HODL, you are going to have contribute ideas and make a little effort to allow the dev to do his dev thing while the promotion and marketing and whole 'social network' stuff, can be down to the rest of the BITS community.
Well said. I think we need to wait for Dev to finish with the new wallet and to see his road map for the future.

great post man
Looking at the mentelity foundation website, Im starting too think the dev is Dutch... Is this true dev? Maybe some other dutch guy could help us out with being the face of bitstar? (not me btw

We're now working on a new unseen feature, should have more news in the next week or so. But won't announce it until it is ready.
Unseen feature is slightly delayed due to a dev pc dyeing and this chain sync issue, still expect 1-2 weeks before I'm ready to announce, not going to let on what it is early and risk somebody else doing it too though.
I have thought about anon, but i have put that on hold for now as it seems like another "me too" feature, I'll reconsider it after the feature I'm working on now is complete if the community still really wants it.

It may not be a "game changer" (is anything so far really?), it does make the wallet a whole lot more professional and useful in the real world applications which is the whole point, we can then start pushing it to be taken as a real world payment and it also hooks in to a lot of new plans we have coming not too far in the future.

Thank you. That cleared up a lot of my questions.
I also think that making the wallet much more advanced & "useful" is hugely important.
If it also makes Bitstar more of a standout from the crowd, I'm all for it.

Sounds great. This coin is fundamentally solid and has been since day one. More solid features and consistent steps to drive adoption are exactly what is needed!

I think this should be on top of every page. Gotta get the words out.

I think they will be great because I believe in the developer, but I would also exercise caution. While it could be the greatest thing since sliced bread, I wouldn't want everyone to get their hopes set so unrealistically high that they are disappointed.
I agree with you there. I'm sure the dev wants to tread lightly also.
But really, it's not like BITS is under any form of spotlight anyways.
What he is doing will hopefully put some life back into this coin.
