Has BRIT got an official slogan?

Nice logo by the way. Feel strong.
Thanks a lot mate. We do love our logo, our designer did a great job on it.
Which user designed the current logo?
Was the coin both Proof of Work and Proof of Stake from the beginning?
That's would be Christian aka Denneman
BritCoin was launched on the 27th of June and PoW (plus PoS) ended on the 6th of July if I remember correctly. Now Brit is PoS with 5% annual interest.
OK thank you

Should have a beta version of the new BritCoin desktop wallet which will include some UI changes and chat (IRC) implementation ready for testing very soon. I will post a link here soon so that you can try it before the final release.
Would be good if the IRC bit does not publish your IP address to the other chatters.
Right now it does show your connecting IP address, but there are two ways to get around this that we're looking in to. We can setup a proxy to route the connections through or use another IRC network (not Freenode). We'll definitely implement one of these options before the new wallet is fully launched.
For now you can test out our new Windows V1.2-beta wallet by downloading it here;

Let us know if you have any feedback or run in to any problems, this is a beta release so it's still being tested.

Hope everyone's excited about the new BritCoin mobile and web wallet (BritBank) that will be available soon! They're both near completion and once they've been fully tested, we will make an announcement here, plus Twitter etc. My guess is they will be launched within 48 hours.

I'm from Llantrisant, but lived most of my adult life in Cardiff.
Wow...I didn't know you were Welsh. The new home of the new Doctor Who!
Myself, I'm fifth-generation Canadian. My great-great grampaw disembarked at Boston, decided he didn't like the ambience, so he hoofed it to Toronto.
Hah, that's right. I got shouted at by who I think was the director for walking on "the set" when they were filming in Cardiff once.. Their fault when they close off a street in the middle of town when I have places to be. Haha.
Your great-great grampaw was right about Boston, terrible ambience.
Always wanted to visit Toronto.. I'm sure I will one day.

Hi there, I just tried to install the britcoin wallet from source on my linux mint box, but I get the following error when I compile: /home/leigh/britcoin-master/src/qt/ircmessageformatter.h:13: error: IrcMessage: No such file or directory
Is there a dependency I need?
Is there a dependency I need?
Hey hit me up on #BritcoinUK at freenode. The source from my GIT is being pushed with new updates all the time so consider it alpha at best. There are some dependencies i have not included in the install instructions, come in chat i will help you build it if you want.
Thanks for all your help installing the wallet.
No problemo!

As requested by so many of you, we are beginning to work on anonymous features by next week.
Great news!
Looking forward to testing it out What type of anon is going to be implemented? XC have open sourced their old anon mixing feature, which shouldn't take a lot of work to add into the code.
The current plan is through TOR, but we are looking into the XC mixer. I think the research and testing is as important as the implementation with something like this, we don't want to release a feature that doesn't work perfectly.
I agree, no need to rush, get it right, but I will add that no one could find any link between the blockchain transactions when it was used on the XC platform, and several tried, I think there was even a bounty, which no one was able to claim, it's a pretty solid piece of code. Dan metcalf is an awesome coder.
Key coin was the first to use it after it was open sourced, I think it hit 1 million market cap after it was implemented.
I have one more question, are the development team British?
Edit: never mind I just re read the OP, I also see your a fellow Welsh man too.
Yea I've heard good things about it, but never really tested it to the extent I would want to before implementing it on BritCoin.
We're planning on calling it "private send", what you think?
We think since the word anonymous has quite a 'dirty' reputation, and we want BritCoin to be the digital currency for British consumers and business, the word "private" sums up what we're trying to do with it. It will be totally optional, so it gives users and businesses the option to keep their payments private or public.
Also, Welsh and proud.
The whole team is British apart from one, our wonderful designer/dev Christian who's from Norway. We're always looking for people to help out, so let me know if you know anyone. Private send is a good name, anon does have some bad connotations that come with the name. Anon sounds sketchy and dark lol. This day and age with all the GHCQ and NSA spying who doesn't want "privacy"?
I wish my coding skills were better, I would like to help out, but not sure what I could do? I have some computer skills, or maybe I could just help by spreading the word?
What part of Wales are you from? I'm from Bridgend.
Yea, the word 'Anon' has become synonymous with hackers and darkweb activities, something we want to steer clear of.
Privacy is something more and more people expect nowadays with the Snowden revelations, so "private send" seems like the right route to take.We've already got a couple of coin developers, so we're doing alright in that department. What we could really do with is someone who's decent at copywriting, who could do some writing for BritCoin.
Other than that, spreading the word on Social Media and helping us find new merchants would be great. I'm from Llantrisant, but lived most of my adult life in Cardiff.
I don't have any copyright knowledge sorry. I'd gladly help spreading the word on social media and help finding merchants though.
Llantrisant is only a stones throw away from me, if this coin does we'll, I'll come and buy you a few pints
