No need to hide it PMs we all know nothing is actually working there...  Cheesy

Your turning into VTR'S residential troll.

You clearly see potential,  I bet you got a few hundred thousand coins also.

Anyone have a bootstrap for VTR?  We were trying to update to the latest version but it looks like it requires an entire blockchain resync ;(

Thanks
richie@bittrex

Hi Richie,
I posted one recently which was at about block 1,000,000--you can find it by searching through my posts under my username.

Should only take a bit after that; if it doesn't work for some reason let me know and I'll pop out a fresh one when I have a moment.

Thanks but i think we got it sorted out.

Is there still an active dev on the project?  The bug for validateaddress still exists which is why the faucet and bittrex are having problems.

Basically it comes down to this, before coins are sent anywhere, people usually do a "validateaddress" on an address.  You check for "isvalid: true" and make sure that the "address" that comes back out is the same one you passed in.  For VTR, this returns, thus anytime you try and validate an address before sending coins, it fails.  If the dev would fix this, we could address the problem with withdrawals to stealth addresses.

{
    "isvalid" : true,
    "ismine" : true,
    "address" : "XZww38dEzKrxkWoyNVsYn4UG8epA8x1vsa"
}

You can always withdraw to a non stealth address as a temporary workaround.

Thanks,
Richie

PS. do not try to send to the non stealth address of your bittrex stealth address.  It wont work.

Dear Richie,

Please discuss this issue with me through PM.

Regards,

vTorrent

Is it possible to have VTR work through I2P ?

Everything is possible, but it will probably take 10-20 years to finish it..  Roll Eyes

20 years ... by then I expect we'll download movies and porn direct to virtual reality upgrades in our brains  , paying for viagra shots with iota directly from wifi cock wallet implants. This project doesn't have that long to deliver the goods

So vtorrent has kindly let me try out the new wallet (minus torrent features); I've been asked to keep the file private but can share screenshots here.




So yes, it does exist. It is functional, it is pretty slick and barring the blockchain completely syncing (it is taking some time) it looks quite nice. There is a BitTorrent section, but it has been deactivated on this particular copy of the program (vtorrent stated that it would be without torrent functionality as this is still in private testing)

New features:
-multiple windows for trading on bittrex
-2FA via Google Authenticator
-Key management
-HD addresses
-Block explorer


Regarding the lack of any update on torrent functionality this is what vtorrent said on December 31st, 2014:

Since Magnetz scam, I prefer to keep all the details about torrent implement from public until we release our first beta client with torrent implemented.

As to when to expect torrent release, I have no information.

That BitTorrent link in the client is in the video, but not on the latest release. Obviously, something is there.



@Dev

Any chance of a video of that opening up?

Yes button was there but it didn't work (it'd crash the client). I did investigate as much as I could of the code and found multiple references to the torrent feature--enough that I'm convinced that it does exist in some form, but dev stated that the client I was being sent would have all torrent functionality removed.

So either the dev is pulling the biggest possible effort to pull the wool over people's eyes for the past 2 years or he is working on something slowly but surely.

I think it goes without saying that beside all these other coins out there that no one has "cracked" a paid storage solution--and even the ones that are close don't consider bittorrent but instead P2P storage (a la dropbox).

Joystream doesn't appear too fantastic, is tied to bitcoin itself (meaning transactional costs and bloat of the blockchain will make it not really work unless the blocksize of bitcoin magically increases tenfold overnight).

What the internet needs but doesn't yet know it is a Kazaa-like bitorrent/cryptocurrency client (which is what the promise of VTR has always been); stuff like some community chat rooms as well as some way to rate content would turn it from an amazing idea into a game changer.

Being able to put up bounties for shit (i.e. I want this specific file that only someone with access to an invite-only private tracker would have) would take things a step further.

Nice post. One other thought on dev(s) capabilities:



I do think you are right. This is going to be epic.

MegaUpload 2.0 is looking to start-up, this time to compete with vTorrent  Tongue

https://youtu.be/XQRQdNvja00?t=11m14s

Seriously, they are competing with VTR.

I think VTR should start kicking soon with the activation of the torrent feature so VTR can have the huge part of the market in a shorter time possible.

Anyone noticed the new 0.8.1 wallet is huge (60MB vs 30MB of regular coin wallet)? Old wallet was 24MB. I wonder what is the reason for such dramatic size increase?

Also it seems it doesn't work on Windows XP... I know XP is old (not-supported-has-security-leaks-bla-bla-how-can-I-even-talk-about-this-old-os), but anyway, I have it on one of my machines, and it would be great if the wallet can work there. When run on my XP machine, the wallet just starts, shows the splash-screen, then after 5-10 sec exits without any error.
Is there any specific reason this cannot work on XP? I doub't it is using something XP doesn't have...

@vTorrent, did you test this wallet on XP, and do you think it should work there?

New wallet is heavy on JavaScript.

Blockchain syncs in less than a day, compared to two-three for the old client.

Nice work devs
