thanks for making these vids. could you/someone upload to youtube/vimeo?

thanks

p.s. if nobody else does it I'll upload them on Boxing Day \o/

I've been able to convert (in wallet) Shadow to SDC by sending Shadow to one of my stealth addresses using the same technique from the following vid (minus the secondary wallet).

Demo 3:

Only the fees appear visible in the transaction history if you send to self however you can verify the success of the conversion by noting balances in Shadow and SDC beforehand.

I have nothing to do with the SDC team I just try to help out where I can.

While we are on the subject; Cloakcoin was never a scam.

Anon via exchanges worked as did trading in wallet to an exchange. Both a first.

It had unfinished code yes because the coders didn't have time or funds to finish properly given the constraints imposed by the market following the dumping.

DRK has been broken over and over and yet they've somehow been able to keep their head above water... unfortunately that luxury is very rare.

As for broken promises... I wasn't the coder... I just did my job of representing the coin and promoted the concepts that the devs presented to me.

Tbh the whole sdc to shadow thing and shadow to shadow is way to confusing.
Just call the button: "anonymize coins" or something.

Good job tho, true recolution

Quick shadow question: How do you convert your Shadow to SDC in your wallet? I can't find a button for that.

Before you speak of Alty being a threat to SDC you should take note that Alty has donated to our lead designer CRZ, that's more than can be said of you contributing to the project. Another contribution is the bounty he put up for the demo videos.. I for one am happy that more people (not just including Alty) are stepping up and contributing. It's simple. If you aren't contributing and you don't have anything nice to say - then don't say anything.

Big shoutouts:

Jimmies for pimping the hell out the slideshow presentation (should be uploaded tomorrow)
Dasource for setting up another faucet + building more features into it  
Alty for contributing the demo video bounty and donations to Crz.
DFG for donating to Crz and organizing the SDC explainer video
SebSeb for busting ass all across the board
Longandshort for handling the Shadow wiki/faucets and being longandshort

and as to the videos: Produced for bounty. I was in IRC when the bounty was offered and accepted by Alty. Eg could have been anyone putting their hand up first

no one ever said he was part of the sdc team.. and just because some1 comes poking his head around here as an investor Doesnt mean that he is on the SDC team

Is Alty being part of the SDC team?
He is such a big threat for the crypto community.
He fucked several crypto investors with his big scam Cloakcoin.
Hype, empty promises, broken incomplete code, insider trading and then disapperead.

I missed this part
It's a fucking scam!
Btw nobody know who and where is Cryptonote creator? why he's not help to improve the cryptonote tech, it should be easy for him

Raw demo footage captured in real time and edited down to avoid unnecessary waiting during confirmations.

Two separate wallets (sender and receiver) were used, one situated on a VM.

You can't really have it both ways. If the anon stuff has been implemented from scratch, and if major improvements have been made to the Bitcoin code, then it isn't mature code. Yes part of the code is more mature than other anon coins, but likewise part of the code is less mature. 

Although it seems from the conversation a few posts back that the anon part of DRK also isn't that mature, and likewise for cryptonote coins. They are certainly more mature than they were when first released in March, but the most recent major issue was discovered in early September, which wasn't really that long ago. There have been growing pains.

Smooth: PM me with your SDC addy and I'll send you some.

Please everyone: the anon vertical isn't a hockey match, we're all fighting towards the same goal of financial privacy; that doesn't mean we should be fighting amongst each other. Please keep the discussion technical there's no room here for bashing developer efforts.. Smooth has came in here and praised our work; there's no reason to be confrontational towards him i.e. telling him "to leave the thread" and so forth.

One of the strengths SDC has moving forward as a new contender for a top spot in the anon vertical is that the SDC codebase is much more mature than cryptonote-based coins, since there has been much more contribution made towards the Bitcoin codebase. There's also been years of commerce to test it's security. That's not to say in the future Cryptonote-coins won't catch up, but things like mobile applications and friendly UIs is something that helps put Shadow in the forefront.

Although Bytecoin was out way before Darkcoin, the latter has the first mover advantage over every coin project in the anon vertical; However, superior technology can alter landscape.

Shadow's main weakness at the moment is recognition from the media and from the general crypto community.. but I have a strong feeling that will be changing very soon. Traction comes with time and we have plenty of that.

In the future, our team will be focused on further improving upon an already amazing innovation, so we can all look forward to that. Right now we have the best anon solution on the market coupled with a proven platform and a wide array of features some of which have a viable market value to multiple billion dollar industries. I would implore any new investors to really dig into our project and see what it is about. We've made many "firsts" for crypto and we'll continue to do so. Our team is dedicated to the project, so get involved and join in on the journey - it's going to be an amazing ride

I should hopefully have the new website up later today. I'm looking forward to getting everyone's feedback there.

That said, I wish everyone happy holidays. Enjoy your time with your families (remember to tell them about SDC) and wish you all the best in 2015.

Yes as now it has been mandatory , this is the time to update.

Glad it all worked out

Have them all. I'll try QT Creator now.

EDIT: Tried QT Creator still same error. The source seems to be missing a file.

/home/propulsion/Downloads/shadowcoin/src/qt/qrcodedialog.cpp:12: error: qrencode.h: No such file or directory
 #include
                      ^

Edit (again): I was missing a dependency libqrencode-dev

I'm now able to compile the latest master branch with version 1.3.0.7.

So in summary:

It seems like the new wallet can no longer be compiled with qt4. Also in doc/makefile.unix it list's an optional dependency as libqrencode. That is now mandatory and also named libqrencode-dev.

First, make sure that the required packages for Qt5 development of your distribution are installed, for Debian and Ubuntu these are:

then execute the following:

Alternatively, install Qt Creator and open the shadow.pro file.

An executable named shadow will be built.

The QT wallet compiled fine before the latest mandatory update.

Are you reading any of the docs?

Which branch did you compile or did you do it by tag?

Edit: Removed qt4 and installed qt5. I no longer have qmake errors but instead error out while compiling.


The above was done using the master branch.

When using the anon branch I receive this:

Hmm, I compiled QT from source on linux this morning without any issues.
IIRC you need QT5 and not QT4
