Actually Kristov tends to spend time on coins he is intrigued with. If you are looking for an auditor he might be available, he said he is wrapping up his DRK audit this week.

Maybe someone can answer what step we are at now regarding BTCD? Are we still waiting for someone to review JL's code or waiting for something else? I checked the ANN thread and through all of the conversation on here and questions, it's hard to figure out where we are right now and what the next steps are.

Thanks!
I am busy with some new project until Thursday, after that I will be able to 100% be on Teleport debug and I am getting initial releases so I should be able to start tomorrow.

please understand there is a lot of work behind the scenes to put together a 10,000+ BTC offering
I think this is worth whatever delay to Teleport it causes, but since I am still waiting on release, the time lost will be less than a couple days

still no volunteers or even anybody that is willing to be hired to look at my some few lines of C code.

Dan Metcalf?
does he have any time for this?
is he willing?
does anybody know him personally?

Well he did audit Keycoin code and he is pro-crypto in general so I don't see why he wouldn't do a favour for BTCD.

That is assuming he does have time outside developing his own coin.

mostly right, seems a bit confused that node specific script written for that node is not adding any security issues that are not already there.

now when we have linked-tradebots that are downloaded to multiple machines, this does become some factor. but that is for later anyway

also the anon-card of $500/day is a bit above what he says is possible

I have been working at my pace of 7+ years

I like kitchen sinks Smiley

James

P.S. oh yes, wait for the pullback, BTCD is already pretty high. How many peoples are listening to him? seems he is not heard of SuperNET yet, but since it is recorded cant fault him for that. The majority of the show was about BTCD, is that normal?

Absolutely not, pretty sure Kristov has made mention of btcd only twice before this.  Both were very short mentions, but he does do some homework before commenting, so i assume he just recently heard of BTCD and needed to catch up.

Put me down for an Anon Card.


Ooh, ooh, me too, me too!! 

James, at least 100 pages ago, when we were still collecting funds for the anon card, you mentioned the possibility of picking the anon cards up at trade shows.  Individuals who did not want to supply a shipping address would then have the opportunity to get their hands on a card.  What are the odds that this will be a viable option, how serious were you about this idea?  It seems, with all that's going on, this wouldn't be possible for quite some time.  Just asking for those who might have reservations.....
it is SuperNET card, so the next time any coin in the SuperNET core (BTCD + NXT currently) is having a presence (or anybody) at a tradeshow, we can get the people to say how many cards, then ship that many, plus some few extra to the person going to the trade show.

Then some sort of secret handshake to show you are already paying for the card and you grab a random one from the box of SuperNET cards

I dont see why this cant be done. All we need is some sort of list of txid for paying of the card issuing fee and the person at the trade show crosses off the list your txid when you grab the random card

Why not just run a preorder now for the first batch of cards, with a 3 or four day deadline.
volume discounts, cost per card, delivery time > 3 days, etc
50 cards, 100 cards, 250 cards, 1000 cards?

just a rough ballpark

if we could go to any ATM in the world with the anon card, deposit fiat and get BTCD instantly, it would be awesome! !  ! Cool
reverse
send BTCD to SuperNET card and get fiat from any ATM that supports mastercard

Anonymous is a strong term, we have yet to see one cryptocurrency achieve that instead of boasting about "anonymity".

Simply integrating mixing or wiring the transactions via Tor/L2P isn't enough, integrating mixing and claiming anonymity makes about as much sense as lowering the block speed and claiming to be the "fastest altcoin" or "the altcoin with the fastest transactions". It implies that there is some original innovation when there is none.

I might not be on here 24/7 looking into every single altcoin but as far as I know we are the only candidate that got it so far, however we are pretty early into development ourselves.

The next update will likely be the last mandatory hardfork, we will introduce a reduced blockchain and apply some amorphous computing concepts that we have been working on very hard, topology-aware clients are the future of decentralized monetary systems and will lead to much faster propagation of information and generally significantly reduced dis-synchronization of the network.
