Can we see any improvement since this coin was launched? I mean even just a little development? I dont really understand the difference of  this coin from other or ist still just like the normal coin so far?

I hadn't appreciated the role that the new BTCD wallet will play in SuperNET. As I now understand it, SuperNET will be available through this wallet (reskinned NXT to offer all the added features), not via a separate client. This is great if it's true Smiley

Can anyone also say whether it will be capable of holding BBR and BTC as well as NXT and BTCD via associated addresses - and if so whether this will require downloading multiple blockchains or whether a lightweight client will be used for any (like blockchain.info)?

Would love to see a list of planned features if it's available somewhere.
For coins with mgw asset, then it would be automatically a multiwallet.

I can enable some remote SuperNET API calls for getting info on other blockchains, so imagine N coins that are clients of the SuperNET, the blockchain state of any of these N coins will be available without needing to actually have the blockchain locally! And it can be verified with R random nodes.

The SuperNET API is implemented inside the BTCD core and due to the complexities of this integration process I am doubting many coins will want to do this inside their coin. It is just a matter of dev time. It would be a lot easier to just invoke the SuperNET API via RPC call (this is already working) so to use the SuperNET, a BTCD install is needed and then if the user wants to access the SuperNET, the NXT will have to be enabled also.

This will add some load to the BTCD network (and NXT network), so I think we will need to have a lightweight mode for BTCD users who are not having good connections.

Basically the SuperNET design benefits greatly from having a core network for acting as gateways to all the other coins. This allows for a single hop between any two coins. It does mean the BTCD network will need to become much bigger, but the added bandwidth used will be well worth it. It also means that it will be no simple matter for any clone to duplicate the BTCD's power as the code is just one part of it, the installed base of nodes is the other thing that cannot be cloned.

BTCD owned intelligent investors. trolls , FUDers and powerful enemies have employed all their energies to destroy it.  but reactions of  smart investors and flawless leadership by James until now  neutralize all messy plans.

in any community, there are many people insipient and fool but in BTCD's community very few people have these characteristics . 

enemies buying BTCD and Unity , then selling at lower prices to destroy its, and of course insipient people are scared and  unwanted contribute with them.

I am very glad to buy cheap coins .  Cheesy

Answer is simple and depends on what type of personality you are.

If you are a coin supporter and enthusiast, then invest in everything or in those you love most.
If you are low-risk-investor, you could devide equally +/- among all choices and spread risk.
If you are hardcore-all-in-investor, invest everything in the coin you believe hast most potential.

Wink

I personally dont have much to invest, but I would go for the most part in BTCD.

I bought my 52 BTCDs @0.01479063 BTC and I added some more @0.01270100 BTC.  It'll really be losses if the price is still dropping down and wont rise back to the price I was bought.  Now, I have to focus more in trading my ltc and Darkcoin to replenish my losses if the price wont rise.  Huh

Well, if you are going to day trade, that's how it goes. I am more of a value investor.

It's inevitable to have price fluctuations... that is perfectly normal...

But remember the time when people were cashing out with bitcoin on $4 and then bragging around that they are awsome traders...

This is a bumpy road  Grin

while staking, I received a "mined" transaction which never confirmed for days and says "generated but not accepted"
What is this?

This is an orphaned block. Same block been accepted from another node before your submisson. This happens sometimes. I got one yesterday.

I have the older version of the windows wallet on my laptop. it shows 16 connections to the network.
I have installed the latest version on another PC, I have placed all nodes in bitcoindark.conf but can't make it connect.
it shows 0 connections
I have restarted the wallet several times and windows firewall is off.

What can I do?

Sometimes, it takes time to connect. If everything else seems fine, keep the wallet open for min 30 minutes and wait until it gets connected.

If it doesn't work at all, you can keep using the old wallet file as well.

Hopefully soon we will get the upgraded NXT inside wallet.

yes, I think it needs time.
I just want to transfer all my btcd into another wallet and then back to the old into one address
Why don't you just send it all to yourself from the first one? 

I have tried to do that on another coin's wallet and all coins stuck there unconfirmed for ever (0 confirmations)
