Sry to ask but I dont really get it.
I bought Silkcoin 1 month ago on poloniex. As far as I understood I have to convert them into SLK to get the possibility to buy DARKSILK. This is only possible on Weaver which is not released yet?
In other words, my stacked Silkcoin on Polo are basically useless yet? If yes what can I do with them except trading?
Thanks for clarification.

Greetings Phil

You will need to convert Silkcoin to SLK yes. DarkSilk however is a seperate coin, which can be bought/sold on any market that will carry it. SLK will be of vital importance to the Silk Network, you've invested into the backbone of Silk Network's success.

Of course SLK, like any other coin, could be used as a medium of exchange.

Polo has huge volume but are very opaque in practice. The way they handled the etc drop showed absolute disregard for users over fee intake.

Said this a while back. Polo is busy with ETC/ETH money makers. Nothing else matters to them at this point. Maybe a couple months down the road from now. But if it is imperative to get on an exchange with the release, honestly I wouldn't hold my breath for Polo. Unfortunately Polo is now in a world where money talks. Didn't use to be that way, but hey whatever, to each his own.

I don't know what makes you think this wasn't always the case though. They're running a business and whether you agree with it or not listing ETC didn't suddenly change that in some way. They've always been primarily money-oriented. Still, there's a prestige associated with being listed on Poloniex that the team here fully deserves plus it means SLK reaching a wider audience (and higher volume). We've all been waiting for more than a year now, I don't think waiting another week or two to arrange being listed on the biggest exchange in the world is too great a sacrifice. Then if there's still been no reply they can look at alternatives.

The Silk code is ready.

The team is waiting for a response from Poloniex and we have already messaged Bittrex.

We are a professional team and the last thing we are going to do is pre-ejaculate and ruin everything because we got overexcited or pressured into releasing early.

We have a lot of documentation to release to the community, two very in-depth sites which are packed with information, press-releases to be released and a lot of other stuff going on behind the scenes in preparation for launch.

I don't work for near 2 years to ruin everything in 2 days.

Everyone will wait until Silk Network is ready to release. Which will be made clear and very public.

You can transfer them to a local wallet and stake them until the swap, or you can buy something from someone thatll accept it. If youre in the market for nootropics, i'll accept it.

Quote from: Orestes on August 09, 2016, 10:49:44 AM

Yes, I'm curious as to why they are hesitant to reply. Their support service is rather slow imo.

They just launched im sure theyre busy with real issues, if their coinlist stays short longterm id def like to see silk on it

Maybe he meant polo's support. They're leagues ahead of most other exchanges, I think it's worth waiting a little longer to hear back from them.

I would like to mine... when mining starts!?

Once DarkSilk is released, read the OP it covers all.

Rawx recently launched, it seems pretty nice so far (if polo's etherlust is an actual issue)

Yes, I'm curious as to why they are hesitant to reply. Their support service is rather slow imo.

So where are we at?
We are in the final stages of communication with Bittrex to make sure we have an exchange at Silk launch.
TraK4Ubitl if you still want to have that conversation, this week would be the right time. We are also here for you, remember.

Not happening. Silk takeover is dead.

Far from it, the devs are still working hard to make it happen.

Well either way, since Polo hasn't shown interest by responding, going to Bittrex wouldn't be the end of the world. Don't think Polo is in any hurry with their ETC/ETH money makers, like I said earlier. Now, if the volume would end up being significant, it could turn some heads...

I am ready for the swap so I can start staking!

When is the "snapshot" of addresses being done? Would hate to lose staked coins if I stake past the snapshot? I mean there has to be a cutoff point at some time right in order to do the swap?

Or they maybe have vacations ?
