The Gulden 2.0 roll out will be as follows:

Phase 1 – Gulden 2.0 will be released, it will function exactly like an upgraded 1.6 at this point with no PoW² functionality present yet. Upgraded miners will signal for an upgrade, when 75% of miners are signalling the software will activate phase 2.
(Expected to last at most a week or two – depending on miners)

Phase 2 – A new special backwards compatible transaction script type will become available to upgraded (2.0) users which will allow them to create witnessing addresses. Old (1.6) users will verify these scripts but won’t be able to create or use them.
Once a minimum threshold is reached (200 or more witnessing accounts with a combined weight of 20 million or more) we will enter Phase 3.
(Expected to last at most a week or two – depending on coin holders)

Phase 3 – PoW² witnessing commences, with a few limitations that allow old (1.6) users to remain on the network (no transactions allowed yet in the witness portion of the block for instance). Witnesses and miners will automatically start signalling a percentage of how many upgraded users they are seeing, when this percentage goes over an average of 95% for a fixed time period we will enter Phase 4.
(We anticipate that this may take several months)

Phase 4 – At this point our backwards incompatible changes trigger, new transaction format/rules activate, PoW² witnesses start to include transactions in their portion of the block, witness accounts start to switch over to a new improved backwards incompatible transaction format, new accounts using the old temporary format are no longer allowed, SegSig activates etc. The remaining 5% of 1.6.x users will no longer be able to participate in the network.

Phase 5 – After some time 2.1 will be released, code to support old witness accounts can/will be safely removed with affecting block validation - leaving us with a codebase free of technical debt. Checkpointing can also be safely removed at this point.

Is SegSig coming in the same release as PoW2? The roadmap has them as separate?

Well said, im sure this will happen sooner or later this year

Litesire is a old poster and one of the only ones I don't consider a troll. He was right about Gulden many times where other posters want you to dump your coins.

Hope you are right

Gulden will see +10000 before the year end. Accumulation has been taking place between 2800 and 4000 for a good while.

Considering the two major releases and the return of the new iOS wallet it's going to get hairy real quickly.

It could dip into the 2000s one more time before the next major move for the currency. Stay on the sidelines or buy, sellers will be losers.

closed beta testing atm

Really strange pricing compared to other coins, does anyone know if beta testing has started on PoW2 / SegSig? People could be worried the release is further away then expected, if it is truly this month or next then this is a bargain of a lifetime.

Good time to buy more coins for witnessing.

are u aware that u can exchange Gulden directly into Euro? You can use it to pay in Bitcoin and you can do bank transfer in Euro with it as well.

btc will keep falling, sell Gulden into btc and btc into fiat while Gulden above 2500.

Wall gone and it wasn't added to Poloniex. Would be cool if the coin could go under 3k satoshi as I would like to buy a lot more in the 2000s.

This coin is on a downward trend until October, maybe I am wrong but this is the way it looks to me.

Large sell wall on bittrex will keep the coin below 3700 unless it gets added to Poloniex tonight.

i see. they said they want to mainly focus on EUR - NLG markets rather than BTC - NLG markets. This because EUR is more stable and that should also keep NLG more stable. it's probably more stable that way, but as you said, the poloniex approach would a be better/faster approach to the moon. In usability i suppose the stable approach is better. they are going for usability of the coin.

personally i would rather go to the moon soon but let's see where this takes us

Poloniex whales send bitcoin to bittrex to keep bittrex prices the same as Poloniex. You will see the volumes on bittrex are always lower because Poloniex is where the money is. Gulden is shooting itself in the foot by missing out on all the bitcoin going into alts.

based on what? it was 2x the current price a little while ago

This coin has reached it's max price potential for a coin not on Poloniex, if it gets added in the future then it's the investment of a lifetime but until then the price will remain as is or lower.

I am watching this currency with interest, would be grateful to pick up more coins at a lower value.

What about the premine? The premine was originally supposed to be for distributing directly to the Dutch people but the devs changed their minds and the coin is now running on pure trust of the devs and at anytime can line their pockets with all this funding. Gulden is already the highest double star coin on CMC, how much higher can it go?
