One big round of applause to the dev! WOW!!! This coin has been around for a very long time. Is there really only 4.2 million coins in circulation? And what is the total coin count?
Yes, Sterlingcoin really is a survivor, and this is entirely due to the talent and efforts of Steven Saxton.
So I wholeheartedly second your round of applause.
@Steven: any chance of a start-of-year update on where SLG is currently at?
Sterling SentinelThanks for the recognition!
Start-of-year update: As being observed, Sterlingcoin has weathered a great deal. This has come with much diligence, persistance, and much patience from all. I am happy to report the network is sound and all services operating as needed and well within budget.
Start-of-year forward: I am looking at forking PIVX and studying other projects that have successfully and unsuccessfully done so. Of course, a gigantic effort will be needed. The PIVX codebase is very mature and will offer Sterlingcoin users all the features of a state-of-the-art cryptocurrency they may expect in 2018. PoS reward and supply will not change, so long as the community agrees. No ETA or more specifuc details can be given at this time. Many details have to be sorted and much work before more than that can even be said. Of course, this will make for a very exciting 2018 for Sterlingcoin holders. Some work and experimenting has started, but only at a research level. Familiarizing with the code and even some of the functions. I hope to be devoting full-time hours on the task in the very near future. I will report on that.
It seems Discord will be popular in 2018. Following suit,

Have a great weekend and new year, Sterlingcoiners!
