Interesting, I was never too familiar with SILK. Nice infographic, easy to read. Butttt there are some central organizations who "got yo numba" so to speak. How does the currency plan to handle any legal issues that may arise?

What legal issues are you referring to?

Crypto is like the Wild West, no regulations has been set on many topics. But whatever it is that will be regulated is something we should already consider to be regulated, otherwise we will have a hot number. If Silk Network wants to be a lasting project it needs to walk the straight and narrow. On one side there is the public that wants privacy in their spending or position. On the other there is the government that wants transparency in criminal activities.

Some rights are considered unalienable and some public responsibilities rest solely on the public(and not with us), ultimately there is a big grey area to work with. An area with a degree of freedom, within the legal framework, in which the people can decide for themselves what they ought and ought not do.

Is there going to be a voting platform in Silk Wallet? And what about secure messaging: I remember there was something similar before. I'm just asking for the sake of knowledge.

A voting platform as developed for DarkSilk opens the possibility for the community to guide its future. For DarkSilk this is appropiate in order to react to the market, to keep the project agile. With Silk however there is a more fixed purpose in relation to the project as a whole, in short no.

About secure messaging, i don't see it in the whitepaper, it is for DarkSilk and the Weaver though.

There have been several Silk pull requests this week from Spencer and I: https://github.com/SCDeveloper/Silk-Release-Candidate/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed

Silk with peer table in UI (a new pull request removes "Synced Headers"):

Silk has a development network (we are using mainnet for now). If you want to connect, use addnode=162.243.7.232

Keep up with the good work!

How are things coming along? Do you think we'll see the Silk swap within the next two months?

Answer is whenever the devs are satisfied with the code. My best guess is when you see the market on Poloniex halted, then you know the swap will happen soon. Until then, no one is talking about a release date and this is a pretty tight sealed group.

Same answer as 11 months ago then. Good stuff.

There ya go. And yeh memes are awesome to make the pain go away

We are close and only have 3 key jobs to do to the wallet:

chainactive

marketplace

headers first

The other tasks we wish to carry out will be roadmapped to enable a faster launch.

We will be partying like it's 2022 very soon Cheesy

I'll drink a beer to that! Awesome!

Thank you but don't worry, I was just asking. I know how to get good prices for that, I was trying to get some info about a good video card that can be used for mining this and other altcoins.

I have a very old video card which is almost going to die and if I am to mine the new coin here you would probably need an upgrade: any suggestions?
my budget can be something like 300$

With that budget, AMD ATi is probably a better bet.

But we can get some quotes with shipping included if you wish. Just PM me.

Tomorrow I will pick up the messages.
