Some history lesson. It all started with this:
Anonymous transaction is the biggest craze right now.
I really hope super developer has plans to add anonymity.
If so, mention this on the OP. It will gain BIG interest if so.
Thanks i put it in OP under future projects.
Then this which is the beginning of Phase 2 in fact:
No. We can develop original features. The dev team is looking at a complete new way of doing anonymity, for now we can not disclose the info, but we can assure you the dev team is actively working on it.
Kindly reminding you, we did the first time PoS superblocks in all alt coin history this has not seen before.
A reply to an impatient member:
- Notice how there is no hype or pumping false hopes.
Hey this is coding and it's an art. And we do something new here and we are not planned robots, we do not work full time job on this. I wish we can. You can expect one of weekends, we got ready with this feature. I do/can not give any exact time but i don't think it will last more than a month from my estimation. This is just a guess. You should not act according to this. Of course if we see something strange on tests it can take longer, we may fail we dont know. We have in worst case a plan to use master-nodes in a more securer way.
Some more honest replies: (this was before hard fork)
Good observations. My ETA is usually late (last minute problems and daily schedules blocks the progress) so let us work some silent mode we want it as much as you want. It'll be good surprise. And we can't work full times, we have daily jobs, so we use more time from weekends for the project, some may have urgency but we planned everything slow with SUPER so we can have more time for marketing. For this reason we made our algo halves every 45 days see?
Now an actual reply from the "dev":
Hello, I am the Supercoin dev, and I want to give an update to the community on our progress of the anonymous wallet work.
First thanks to all for your patience. We've been working hard for a few weeks, and we almost finished the basic features, and they work fine. We are doing final dev testing. We will soon (in a few days) release a new version of the client (no hardfork) that will support anon features. But we want more tests to be done with the community, so for now we will only limit the anon feature in testnet environment. It will be the same client, but the anon features will be only allowed in testnet for now. We will decide, depends on how tests go, when the features will be in real network.
So what is anon features?
Anon features hide the traces of the transaction. So basically when you want to send from A to B, instead of showing in the blockchain explicitly a transaction showing A-B, it may show A->X, then Y->B, where X, Y are some random addresses (at least from a large address pool). Of course the transaction can be further obfuscated, such as you can split the sending amount to several parts, and apply the above for each part. This way, it is virtually impossible to trace the real transaction. So it protects your privacy.
I will provide more details to our anon feature strategy and implementations later. And if you have questions, please post in the thread, the dev team will answer them as soon as possible (remember we all have our daily jobs, so please be patient
)
I was the one who suggested the name "SuperSend" which devs took on board:
Supercoin needs some fancy marketing terms!
For example:
SuperSend v1 = Current Phase 1 implementation of Anon transfer.
SuperSend v2 = Revolutionary Phase 2 p2p decentralized Anon transfer that's secure and fast.
SuperSend v3 = Super secret Phase 3 implementation that will change the crypto scene forever.
Dev, if you name them with something marketable like above on the OP, we can start tweeting / spreading the new terms.
I find it interesting and useful. Thank you.
More reassurances from the dev before releasing Phase 1 anon on the live network. He also talks about Phase 2.
Thanks everyone for helping and explaining the details. As we said, we welcome anyone to review the code and find issues so we can improve.
I can ensure you that SUPER dev team is a very qualified team, we know what we are doing. We just delivered anon features (enabled only for testnet now), please test it and give us feedback and help us to fix issues. I saw a few tested and happy with it, we need more people to test. If you need testnet coins please PM me or supercointeam, and give us your testnet address, we will send to you.
As we previously mentioned, we are also working on the phase-2 algorithm now, and the progress is very promising. Together, we will make SUPER a lot more SUPER!
FYI
(1) supercoindev is our dev acct
Now just few days after releasing SuperSend v1 (phase 1), here's the dev's response to Phase 2
just few days ago!
whats the eta for phase 2 and multipool ?
We are progressing everyday. This weekend or next we hope to set up the multipool. Phase 2 may take more, it's real complex task but we are progressing on it as well.
Another reply to the same question that keeps popping up:
We are all asking for ETA on phase two, why you not answering us?
We are working on it, difficult task.
So... Who thinks this coin is dead? Who thinks the devs are scammers? Was it worth it to FUD?
To me who's been around from nearly day 1 of this thread, I still see that the devs are working.
If this was their full time job, maybe they can code it quicker. But it's not. Need to respect that.
Buying the coins don't really help the dev one bit. Harassing them does more harm than good also. Let them work on it. Time is gold.
Help by other means such as promo videos, marketing mateirals, tweets (#supercoin) etc or even just a cheer up post for the devs.
I didn't pay them to work for me. So I don't expect them to work hard for my financial gains. You shouldn't either.
I thank the devs for what they have done so far. Keep up the great work!
Thanks. You explained very well. We need some time.
