Balance is showing. Thank you and sorry for freaking out. Perhaps my posts should have been deleted as they were. This is crypto after all so please excuse my mistrust for the moment. Orestes sent me a personal message and the issue was rectified quickly.
In regards to previous posts who is Arteleis? I am sorry I am new here. I see in the intro he is credited for approaching this team? Cannot see any more info on the site or here.
Thanks for any info.
Arteleis was effectively the driving force of the community between 2014 and the beginning of this year, then he simply vanished.
He approached Spencer Lievens initially and then Spencer Lievens hand picked the people that form the current team.
He was loved and is missed by all. We are sure the community can ellaborate some more.
I understand that you were uneasy moving your hard earned money whether it be fiat or crypto. I was the same. All my Silkcoin was on Poloniex, I didn't have a local wallet running. I hadn't logged into Poloniex for several weeks and when I did on 9/9 my wallet was showing that my Silkcoin was at 0 value and trading was closed. I rushed to get a local wallet setup in hopes that I could withdraw the Silkcoin out of Poloniex
I originally did a small deposit of 10 for a few reasons;
1. I needed to make sure my local wallet was functional
2. I needed to make sure that my withdraws from Poloniex confirmed
3. I needed to validate the Weaver deposit address
Needless to say that all worked out (previous post shows my initial test worked) and I have transferred my Silkcoin over. Now the hard part comes (waiting for trading to start and DSLK to be open).
I have 100% trust in this team. I came in contact with Spencer about 2 years ago in IRC when I had just started switching over to x11 and x13 mining and he was one of the most knowledgeable people I have run across since getting involved in altcoins. I have personally met Amir. He came to DC and we had a very good meeting on another project. He knows his stuff when it comes to coding. I wish I had one tenth of his or Spencer's knowledge of the blockchain. I have enough faith in the team that I will be buying more SLK and dropping some BTC on DSLK as soon as it opens. I want both
My advice to anyone still on the fence.... get your coins moved over! I don't think you have anything to loose mainly because I don't know what you will be able to do with the legacy Silkcoin after the swap is completed.
To the entire SilkNetwork team -- CONGRATULATIONS on where you are today and how far you have come. I think we are all in for the dawning of the next era sometime tomorrow.
I don't think I will be going to bed tonight
