already in talks to migrate some large DNMs over from tor to Bitnet
China is really showing some Coin innovation damn...never seen a wallet like this guys!!!! it has IRC built IN! decentralized.
Decentralized voice and video chat in wallet.
"Bitnet network is an encrypted virtual network independent of the Internet, in which you can set up your own website,This technology allows you even to set up a web site in an internet LAN set up. Bitnet network have their own independent domain name system, P2P network, more secure and transparent."
I think this one has been creeping low on alot of radars and it was partially due to people not understanding what the coin was about. Their new website just went up and looks fresh..

Namecoin is one of the most innovative digital currencies. It's price has been rising steady. I'm pretty sure that it is still very undervalued!

Namecoin is affected by the Consensus Bug. Be careful and wait for confirmations.

I have a question. May i register a .bit domain and renew it for like 10 or 20 years in advance at once?
Or do I have to renew it every 200 days or so? If it so, then it would be easy to loose your domain.
Unfortunately something like that is not (yet) possible. The closest to implementation is a grace period during which a domain seizes to work but still can be renewed. Also it would be relatively easy to create a program/service to warn about expiry.Or do I have to renew it every 200 days or so? If it so, then it would be easy to loose your domain.

Is Namecoin still in development ? Is there a future for .bit or is Namecoin Dead?

someone could start another coin and issue .bit addys or do something similar correct?
Yes but it would not be the same. July 15, 2015, 09:11:46 AM

Will "Backup Wallet" in the Namecoin wallet back up the balance of all associated addresses?
Yes, balances and names. Note that the usual disclaimer from Bitcoin applies - after doing 100 (or how large your keypool is) operations (including coin transactions and name registrations/updates), you need to back up again at the latest.Is there anything else that might invalidate a backup? I suppose creating a new receiving address and receiving coins there is one.
I do not think so - except for encrypting a previously unencrypted wallet. In this case, you even invalidate all new addresses immediately. (Since they keypool is flushed.) But maybe I forgot something here, so please do not depend on that without further checking.
I'm not sure I understand. Don't all wallets start out unencrypted?
Yes. The question is whether you actually use (and backup) it in the unencrypted form first, or whether you encrypt it immediately and only then make a backup and start to use it. You should definitely do the latter.
Is there an easy way to test my backup? Or just delete the install, reinstall, and import the backup?
You can at any given moment rename your wallet.dat (be sure to keep it somewhere!), replace it by your backup, start the daemon and check whether or not all coins and names are there. That's about as much "testing" as you can get easily.
If you take all that trouble, though, I would suggest to simply create a fresh backup instead.
