I don't know how did it happen but I got a penalty again and it's 21 DNA, I'm checking my peers and it always online although it is syncing from time to time but it never reaches 30 minutes that it's syncing, yesterday we have a new node update I hope this new update will prevent our nodes to go offline, I am still looking for a week that I don't have penalty, it's been two weeks like this.

Bitcoin Core 0.19.0.1 - newest bitcoin core - https://semver.org/ (you can read about those numbers here)

According to this resource https://semver.org/
I see that the beta version is marked - beta
1.0.0-beta
Despite the fact that it starts with 1, it is beta.
A similar situation with the alpha version.
1.0.0-alpha
It doesn’t matter if numbering starts from 0 or from 1. For alpha and beta, corresponding marks are made at the end of numbering.

"Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable."
Initial development doesn't mean BETA. Wallets are constantly updated and refined, that's all. But it's not beta and not alpha, these are official releases.

In addition, don't confuse wallet status with network status.
Bitcoin network status is the Main network. It's launched. It is not beta or alpha.

And Bitcoin wallet has official release status, not beta.

Bitcoin wallet left the BETA stage a long time ago and from that moment have the following statuses:
Release candidate 1 (2,3 ...) - Official release.

BTW bitcoin is in beta (after 10 years)

Don't forget to add that this is exclusively your opinion.
In the official world, Bitcoin is neither beta nor alpha. It's on Main network blockchain.

About penalty.
Why a penalty after an 1 hour of lack of mining?
Too fast.
We are people, we work, relax, sleep.
We cannot be near the computer every hour.
Healthy human sleep - 8 hours.
It is necessary that devs change the inclusion of a penalty after 8 hours without mining.

And when will the main network be launched then? Is there a new deadline?

Bitcoin Core 0.19.0.1 - newest bitcoin core - https://semver.org/ (you can read about those numbers here)

About penalties - you can always turn-off mining while you are sleeping or not able to look after your node. I'm here for 15 epochs. Mining penalties was never a problem for me. 44% of all new coins comes from validations and invitations, so you will not loose much turning your node off for few hours daily.

For me this coin has the potential to become adopted worldwide as a real cryptocurrency (not as a speculation object),
because the only thing you need to mine is a standard computer/laptop (later mobile as described in the white-papers) and a working internet-connection.
And the investment done by every identity is the same for every identity (node). You have to spend about 30 - 60 minutes to make the flips and do the validation each epoch (act. 6 days) plus the power you need to run the system is what makes the value.

Every coin has the potential for that, but to this very day 99.9% of coins become nothing more than a speculation object.

Think about this properly. If you have no way or desire to use something so different in your daily life, why would you use it? There are hundred of identity apps already on blockchain and they did not become popular. Why this?

This coin can be mined by everybody with standard-hardware. Getting it up and running is as easy as installing an app.
So something that is potentially available everywhere can become a standard of payment. It is the decision of the people.

2. They promised to launch the main network in two months from August 30, 2019, but five months have already passed. For some reason, the development team doesn't say a word about postpone. They are too busy for you.

Ok ... if it is not written anywhere that it is a testnet and we are mining test tokens than how is it possible that "They promised to launch the main network in two months".

Quote

mainnet launch was most probably postponed because node or client are not yet as stable as it would be needed for mainnet and maybe there are breaking changes to come (for the chain) and then it's better to still make that in testnet

- also passed from telegram.

BTW.

Quote

3. There is no official guarantee from the developers that the coins from the test network will move to the main network.
They said: "Before the mainnet launch, the testnet will remain functional, the account balances will be kept if nothing extraordinary happens."
"if nothing extraordinary happens" these words from an unknown person, are guarantee of truth? The wording is very convenient for them, they can always hide behind something and invent anything - the main developer has died and they cannot continue the project; their server burned out and everything was lost; a hurricane crashed and destroyed all the servers and backups, etc.

Quote

As a dev i would not try to rob my first adopters from testnet coins only to decrease supply by 30%. well we can alwais fork this coin if dev will decide to zero all balances while going to mainnet
and fork it without premine

- also passed from telegram.

There was no ICO. Team is working on code for half year without even a single $ earned. I think that they deserve a little trust especially if robbing first adopters will not bring them anything except counter-advertising and lack of trust for devs in future project development.

Newcomers, don't forget about that:

1. This is TEST network. All your coins are TEST coins. Idena team don't advertise that, but they have time to post invitations to mining on their twitter in each post.
2. They promised to launch the main network in two months from August 30, 2019, but five months have already passed. For some reason, the development team doesn't say a word about postpone. They are too busy for you.

But I'm also interested, why such a delay of 3 months in the launch of the main network and why the dev team is not responding.

And what is another topic for?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/idenaio-anonymous-blockchain-identity-solutions-for-data-protection-5174633

In every cryptocurrency project this is the risk that everyone have to take. I am supporting the idea behind this project and about the devs not being responsive, last week before validation 3 node updates has been posted and fix is being provided every week for all those bugs encountered by the community.

But one thing is for sure, This is 100% better project compare to other money grab ICO token project that being launch by the hundreds everyday.

Think twice before investing in it!

I only invest 5-10 minutes once every 6 days solving flips and those time investment is nothing compare to the potential of the project.

Every time you enter a password in "Settings" to export privkey you get a new private key.
This means that your password doesn't mean anything, because anyone can set a different password and gain access to the wallet.

This feature is made to encrypt your priv key with your passowrd and random data (salt) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography). Its made to help you protect your priv key not to lock your wallet.

Yea ok so this is a very simple ways of joining the crypto mining community, for a noob. At least the requirements are quite minimal but then, I hope the returns are worth it?

Its around 2000 coins per epoch (6 days of mining, validation, 3 flips, 1 succesfull invitation) worth ~30$ at current OTC price (~0,015$). In my opinion it's worth to mine IDENA even if all you want to do is to dump it right after you mine it, but i think that it's too good project to sell it now. My target is around 0.3-1$ per DNA.

As of this time its being sold via discord OTC for 165sats upto 250 sats. Is it worth it? Mining it will cost almost NOTHING since you can easily run the wallet in background while you are watching youtube or browsing your facebook account and then turn it off when done.

The community is growing, and part of the community are the buyers and sellers we need to create a thread about buying and selling in the marketplace section, this is to protect the buyer and seller, they know who they are dealing with I hope if I open one thread in the marketplace the team will support, we have one in Discord but we need one here in Bitcointalk.

Yes, actually trading in trading is very much needed for now, considering that the attraction of IDENA has become more extraordinary. Someone wants to buy but sometimes there is no escrow who takes care of it, if not in the presence of escrow fear of fraud. Maybe with a single thread here and if there is an escrow who has quality experience can help idena buying and selling transactions here.

It's currently empty, as I'm not planing to sell just yet, but maybe someone finds it useful.
In general, a lot better or safer to trade OTC here than anywhere else, wonder who's gonna be first with his offer

Stay safe regardless people.

Its a good start to create a market for the coin and to spread awareness about the project. Since there are still many scammers lurking in this forum its always best to pay a little extra % for escrow for the safety of both parties.
