Update: Thursday, October 22 2015

It’s time for another update. This release is mainly fixes, and some minor enhancements, everything we thought was critical, that we needed to get out asap. There will be more to follow, but check out https://github.com/ShadowProject/shadow/compare/v1.3.3.3...ShadowProject:v1.3.3.5?w=1 for the full list of changes, but here's the gist of it:

v1.3.3 Bug fixes and Enhancements

- CORE-17: Key Management > Restore (does not default to BIP44)
- CORE-18: Transactions not updating on Main/Transaction Page after Import
- CORE-23: Key Management > New Key (does not default to BIP44)
- CORE-32: New Key (generate External + Stealth Address default
- CORE-21: Log File debug messages
- Reloadanondata starts scanning from block 257000, when ShadowSend v2 was released, saves some time.
- Importprivkey now allows additional parameter, which is a timestamp for when the key was created, improves rescanning.
- Update to miniupnp 1.9.20150810  
- This fixes a buffer overflow in the XML parser during initial network discovery.
- Details can be found here: http://talosintel.com/reports/TALOS-2015-0035/
- QtWebKit static, we now support static binaries again!
- Added new seed nodes
- Rename Key Management -> Add Account, Misleading
- OSX Gitian files - we now support OSX cross compilation

v1.3.3.5

- Sendtoaddress crashing when wallet is encrypted

Shadow Market Update

A lot of you are wondering what's happening with our Market Place, and I'm happy to say we are moving in the right direction. We've been working on our 2 party escrow, which makes fraud unprofitable, without any middle man. Bitmarkets happen to have a very good explanation of 2 party escrow at https://voluntary.net/bitmarkets/slides/Bitmarkets.pdf, check it out.

Our fee structures for messages and MP posts will be as follows for now:
0.2 SDC per 4KB per 2days, so posting a 4KB listing for 4 days will be 0.4 SDC, just as an 8KB ad for 2 days will be 0.2 SDC. Updates to MP listings, will cost 0.05 SDC, and will not add any duration to the listing.

The fees will go towards those supporting the network, and included in the next block found by people staking. We will still support free messages on the network, but we will be limiting them to 10 messages / client / minute, and limiting the size of the free messages to 512 bytes. This will be done in order to reduce abuse and attacks on the ShadowChat side of things.

We will be filtering out a list of keywords in listings, as to keep the main market place tree clean. Our category tree will be built on a HD Wallet key, which everyone will be able to enable / disable certain categories / trees in the category structure, thereby only subscribing to categories that you would be interested in.

The owner of the listing will broadcast the ad to the relevant category in the market place, which will all be automated in the backend, so users will not have to worry too much about this. Because it is more like a classified ad system, users will be able to decide on their categories, but in order to keep the market place clean, we are looking at ways to give people incentive for administering the system. Ways in which we could do this, is to allocate a certain portion of the market place listing fees to those voting on the listings.

Bear in mind we are writing from the ground up, leaving room for improvement, as I'm sure the development of Shadow Market will be continuous, just as with Shadow itself. We will most likely be eliminating issues with our voting mechanism, and improving upon it throughout the alpha testing phase, where our public voting mechanism will be decided on.

In order to get the best decentralized market place, we are going to require loads of participation, so we are really hoping that we will at some stage attract more developers, but for now our focus is to get to a point where we can start testing.

Last but not least!

You can find download links for v1.3.3.5 in the opening post

Finally, I would just like to personally thank everyone in the community and team for getting us to where we are today, and for always helping us move forward Smiley

Hi, I am having SDC on cryptsy and want to withdraw, but it isn't possible because of maintenance. Does anyone know how long this is going on on cryptsy? SDC prices are also low there, so exchanging for BTC is not really what I am looking for. Any suggestions?

I would love to help you with some advice, but all I have is "don't use cryptsy", too many bad news stories coming from there.   Sad


Thanks for answering, but your advice "don't use cryptsy", doesn't help me much when I have SDC on cryptsy. I can tell you that it is pretty difficult to get my coins from cryptsy without using cryptsy.

And indeed they stole some coins from me too and I am waiting for some proper answer for 5 days now.

The bug they were encountering was fixed the other day. They haven't compiled the fix yet.

I would still stay away from that exchange. There has been far too many issues with too many coins over the past few weeks.
Ridiculous what they are doing.

Cryptsy is undergoing several issues with several different wallets.
DO NOT USE THEM ANY LONGER. Cryptsy is the new MT GOX.
POLONIEX.com is much more professional and mature exchange.

BTS,DGB,SDC

They have stolen funds from multiple people over the past few weeks.

The owner is going to be shot and killed or go to jail. Just watch.

And stable coins BLOW PEOPLE'S MINDS  Tongue

They have no idea what to do with consistency.

If a coin doesn't start it's life in a 5 person vacuum, start trading with Mt Kilimanjaro and then die off like the Bonneville salt flats everybody in crypto world are like

What makes SDC a better option to wash $ than DASH?
I am looking for some good points.


Keep up the hard work devs

Since CN anon is compromised by big bag holders I would say that DASH is as anonymous as SDC , maybe more. Theoretically a CN coin is capable of more given good distro. Look to Monero...

Then again... You know exactly what you're doing... looking for another pump

I hope you don't get it.. there is no innovation here.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I have always wondered why there was so much hate directed towards SDC.

Seems like people see this coin as a threat.

Easy, you tell me what you need, then we meet in a parking lot with our phones, you give me the dollars, I send you the SDT (already converted), the transaction is registered in less than a minute, and you drive away. Don't worry, everyone will think it's just a drug deal.

With the DASH mixers, bring something to piss in because we might be waiting there a long time.

That would be considered money laundering, which I doubt the devs will condone as it is highly illegal.

Hey guys,
Got a bunch of SDC stuck on Cryptsy. Yeah, I know.
Anyway, this is the response they gave to my growing frustration:

Shadowcoin is offline until the developers fix the issue.
Our wallet will not stay online longer than 60 seconds and keeps throwing the following error:
Relaying wtx e0f6edc008
shadowcoind: key.cpp:470: void CExtKeyPair::EncodeP(unsigned char*) const: Assertion `pubkey.size() == 33' failed.
Until the developers resolve this issue there is nothing we can do


I don't know what this means, but I have no problem running the wallet, and neither does it appear other exchanges. Any thoughts other than 'don't use Cryptsy'?

A solution has been given to Cryptsy by Ryno. Now let's hope they answer and that they will update regularly in the future ....

Also ... we've forked ! Welcome to the new thinner ring signatures Smiley

nb: please update to the latest version of the wallet, which you will find there: http://shadow.cash/downloads/latest/. Some older version of 1.3.3.3 might not work well.
I am pretty sure that thinner ring sigs equals more better. And I am also pretty sure that Cryptsy hasn't been good at updating wallets for at least a year now, maybe longer. Might be how their holdings are setup. I moved out of there a loooong time ago except for my BillMurrayCoin... which I need to GET OUT RIGHT NOW!

More importantly, GOOD JOB DEVS! Epic update.

I had about 3,000 SDC stuck on Cryptsy for over 2 1/2 months. They kept saying the wallet was under maintenance. During the same time I bought SDC on Poloniex, and from Shapeshift, and never had any problems whatsoever. Cryptsy has had problems in the past, but it seems things have gotten a lot worse since they decided to get involved in trading $. I have stopped doing business there. If a bank or exchange is keeping you from withdrawing funds, they better have a damn good reason. Not just sorry, the wallet is under maintenance for months!

My thanks to the SDC devs! Really excited about where this coin is going. The future looks bright...  Cool
