Which big partnerships are at risk?
Polo cut them loose with no warning despite having a whole bunch of active devs working on the coin.
Off the top of my head could name a dozen inactive scam coins still listed on polo, raised support tickets asking why those coins weren't removed too. Was fruitless, but made me feel better.
In retrospect, it's not hard to understand really, they are terrified of the name.
Polo just looking after themselves, and rightly so. I'm not blaming them, they a huge US registered company, you think they want any association with Silkroad and Dread Pirate Roberts? That guy is a convicted criminal and will be in jail for life. Even when it's a ridiculous false association, still matters.
It's a proper move to rebranding, I strongly support. Reckon the tech is unique in crypto and you guys would have done well regardless, superficial as it is, simply changing name means a lot to outsiders.
I loved the camel personally, but shit changes, and you gotta deal with that, does anyone name their kid Adolf anymore? Fuck no.
All we have to do is add a "silk" easter egg that adds the camel back

I only hope that all the rebranding/refurbishing thing will not slow down the planned march. Are we still launching the DarkSilk (or whatever it will be) on November 5th?
How do i get my silk from the old chain to weaver? I sent a small test transaction before i moved it all, and the test trans got lost.
It's not lost
All transactions are done manually by Mathew for safety reasons
If Silkcoins are picked up on the blockchain, then this means that they've arrived safely. The push to the Silk Network site is still a manual process, it will be visible once Matthew makes the push. A little bit of patience is necessary 
I assume by Quote
silk from the old chain
you meant silkcoin (yeah I know it's a bit confusing)and what happened with the rest of the coins you moved?
PS: What happened Bitcoinasourus?
You were lost for a while
You should add these lines:
staking=0
stakegen=0
reservebalance=100000000
Updated the silkcoin.conf file as well
Thanks

Hi and thanks for the help. I downloaded the .conf file from the link you provided and deleted my existing one and replaced it with the one you provided but still have majority of my coins stuck in "Staking" and nothing I try can get them into spendable. I changed the reserved amount to the amount stuck and it made no difference either and I tried the reserve amount at 0000 and still stuck. I am not sure what to do or where to go from here. Any help would be really appreciated.
Updated the Silkcoin folder up to block 1758147 for easy sync
Silkcoin Folder Update
This is the old Silkcoin blockchain
not the new SLK blockchain
DON'T MIX THEM UP
How to use instructions at the end of this post
Also added separately silkcoin.conf
download just that if you're synced and put it in your Silkcoin folder
it contains staking=0 line as well cause it's no point in staking the old coin anyway
Thanks very much for your help. I found my .conf file but I have no idea how to change it? when I click it, it comes up with windows cant read this file. I also dont know how to create a text file. Any help would be appreciated.

Set your reserve amount to all 9's (999999999) that's the amount you are telling the wallet to KEEP from staking. Not sure if if will help release the coins in staking but it may.
Just thought of something else you can try if nothing else works. You could try exporting the private keys from your current wallet and the importing them into a new wallet. I’ve done that for many other coin wallets in the past which had gotten screwed up. To do it;
With you current wallet running and unlocked, go to Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab.
For each of your addresses, enter
dumpprivkey
Copy and paste each of the keys it responds with to notepad
Save the file when you have dumped all your addresses, but leave it open.
Exit (close) the wallet
Go to your Slikcoin data directory
Rename the existing wallet.dat file to something like orig_wallet.dat (so you have a copy)
Restart the SilkCoin wallet (it will create a new wallet)
When it shows it is synced, go back to the console (Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab)
Now using the list of keys you saved in the notepad file, ether the following command for each private key you have;
importprivkey
I'm posting this during my commute to the day job so the commands are from memory, I think I got them right, but if anyone sees an error, please chime in with the correction
Well I am at a complete loss. I have been at this crap for days now and my coins are still stuck in staking and I cannot move them. Where do we go from here.
What does your silk.conf file look like (without the rpcuser/rpcpassword)? You should add these lines:
staking=0
stakegen=0
reservebalance=100000000
If that doesn't work, please send me a PM.
I've voted yes to a rebrand although I'll seriously miss the original silk name and the camel etc.
It would be a shame to see us loose big partnerships for the sake of a name.
Voted yes as well and I'll miss those too
But I'm backing up this team 100% because of their spirit and goodwill
Well there is a poll so to decide would need to know the reason for the name change. Is it Microsoft azure? I hear that I'd big for coins and Microsoft doesn't like drugs like this coin currently is promoting.
And how did you come up with the "promoting" thingI assume that you think that all Mary's are Virgin Mary as well just because of their name
Sorry for being an as...hole here
Everything will be announced in due time.

The reasons are stated above the poll as to why we are rebranding.
Microsoft Partnerships for Azure is minor and something we already have in the works, this is just a bit of code and some communication.
We never promoted drugs, so I am unsure why you have stated that.....

The entire focus and direction in terms of the business carried out by the team and company behind the the two blockchains will change, yes.
Please explain why the direction would need to change due to a rebrand?
The rebranding has to happen because of the direction change. Not the other way around.
If we want to exist and evolve in the business world and forge partnerships, then the branding and name has to change.
OK well that makes a bit more sense.

In what ways?
The wording of that poll is so skewed that you may as well not bother with it by the way. With you on the rebrand though.
