Thanks for the continuous development. We are very grateful. Wish Credits every success. It is a good and unique coin.

Due to that development is extremely time consuming and I'm the sole developer, development has slowed down the last month and a half.
I will correct this in the coming days and weeks to revitalise development and the coin effort.
A release that will be preparing for simplified deposit usage will be done in the coming days. Watch this space for more info.

Hey so I tried downloading the latest windows wallet and everything but for some reason couldn't get no connections at all? Any ideas why that might be?
If it is the latest wallet, you need to download the blockchain first http://credits-currency.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=17441
This release of the Credits client WILL NOT RUN with an existing 0.9.1.60 blockchain. If you get errors on block download, you will have to sync from scratch or initialise from a torrent containing a pre-synced working directory that is provided from this site.

It seems that no body is providing deposit during mining. Any reason for that? They do not mind the 20% penalty?
As Greydon says, the punishment isn't that large yet so miners probably hasn't bothered with it that much.
Simplifications (checkbox enablement from the wallet) to the deposit process is coming. That will probably make more people provide extra deposits.

It's not that sharp of a punishment yet, and clearly miners don't mind the diff increase in return for less funds tied up. Makes sense, as it's still very early in the system's active phase.

Anyone mind sharing the nodes they have?
There are a few nodes listed in the source. Have you tried with them?
I did but I also added the others mentioned in a prior post and it synced right up with no problems.
I have a question, I mined a block and it gave the reward of 45 but it was thrown to deposit, now the amount for deposit if 56. Does that mean anything mined after amount will go to my wallet?
No, nothing after that will be thrown into deposit. However, by not providing a "full" deposit, you had a difficulty punishment on that particular block by approximately 20%. (Your difficulty will rise by diff * required deposit / added deposit).

The reward is 45, you get that, but 45 is smaller than the required 56 deposit. So the 45 will go to deposit. You cannot access that for about 3-4 months. That 45 will be available in about 3-4 months. For the next mined block by you, the 45 reward will still go to deposit. You cannot use that for 3-4 months.

Is there a way to datadir= the bitcoin blockchain location? There is really no need for me to have two separate bitcoin blockchains present on my computer is there?
I ran the credits wallet as a portable software from the start. The link to start looks like this:
L:\***\CryptoCoins\Credits\credits-qt.exe -datadir="L:\***\CryptoCoins\Credits\AppData"
So there should be no problem to use the bitcoin wallet of your mainwallet. Though you need to check the commands in console first. Might be that the correct flags are -credits_datadir and -bitcoin_datadir now.

My deepest apologies for being absent as of recently.
I'm now back and will answer all questions that have piled up here in this thread, I'll get through them one by one as soon as I can.
I'll also try to broaden the promotion for the coin, to try to widen the awareness. Our main problem has of course been that it is difficult to reach out. I will really try to change that in the coming time.

No need to apologise mate.
What can I do to help increase awareness?

No, you don't need both... the credits wallet has both! You can send/receive bitcoins as well as CRE. Even if you only wanted to use Bitcoin, the Credits wallet is more efficient, seeing as you get full functionality for Bitcoin while having a greatly reduced size for your BTC blocks.
TL;DR : 4GB dir for BTC+CRE wallet, or 45GB for a bitcoin only wallet.
Very nice. I did manage to get the torrent downloaded and syncing the remaining 4 weeks needed.

Is there a way to upgrade from v0.9.1.74 to the most recent version without losing all the blocks? Last time i did it claimed the blockchains are corrupted. Or is that update without problems on that level?
You should be able to upgrade to 0.9.1.75 from 0.9.1.74 without any problems. If you want to be really sure, make a security backup of the whole working directory beforehand (just copy the whole Credits dir and name the copy Credits_backup).
That means with this version i can simply overwrite the old files with the new ones after i made the backups you mentioned? It will not find a corrupted blockchain afterwards? I think i already had to recover the blockchain from the torrent file around 3 or 4 times.
Would like to avoid that in the future. Jump to:
