It has been ages since I last posted on BitcoinTalk after serving out my second ban lol Smiley

Anywayz, covered the public testing here.

Good article, I liked it  Smiley

Once zk gets out of beta, I look forward to many such articles. We need to build the number of SDC users. Right now I only see 164 addresses with over 1000 coins:
http://sdc.blockexplorer.cc/richlist/index.php?min=1000

And only 280 users with over 100 coins. But those appear to be staking users. According to my calculations 12,352,120 coins were issued in the PoW and about half of those are appearing on the block explorer, so I guess half the coins aren't staking.

But being about half of that half is held by a dozen or so people, there is no way for these coins to be distributed without a major dump. So I'll wait!


You can wait but it wont help with distribution. Don't know where you are getting your numbers from tho. fyi that is not how staking and blockchains work currently. Coins are not stored in a file on one computer they do not show up when someone turns their wallet on and stakes. They are on everyones computers (blockchain), in case you didn't realise.

Code:
"moneysupply" : 6446477.48432312,

Its a shame in some ways that, but beneficial in the more important ones. I believe that its a slow start on a good project, brought out without the hype but thats the way it is i guess. To many people thinking these projects just have it all on day one. Thats what you get in a highly diluted alt coin space. Hard and fast then all tapped, confused because with jumping form coin to coin they failed to notice what it takes to actually get them going.. I'm ok with it this project the way it is. After all, Shadow is not trying to solve distribution. I don't think any of us would even be here doing this, if we didn't need to test things out. I believe it has the tech to justify and sustain whatever level its market finds. Cant force people to sell something they think they can get more for. See you when and if the world is using it, or at least a larger % of it. Until then tho, make sure you keep an eye out for this project.

Total number of coins in circulation (6.4M) are shown here http://sdc.blockexplorer.cc/stats/

Top addresses seem to be the exchanges. So the number of addresses on the richlist aren't correct. We need more people staking than leaving their coins on exchanges. Didn't anyone learn anything from mt gox and mintpal?

Will ZK effectively end all competing privacy-centric altcoins (purely from an anon-tech standpoint)?  

I guess what I am trying to ask is this:  Is ZK the holy-grail of anonymity?  And will it leave all other currently available anon-tech (such as DRK, XMR, XC, etc) obsolete, inferior, & nonsensical to use?

The short answer - yes.

(...)

Cool story indeed! Will definitely watch this.

Btw excellent redesign! (Yeah I know I came late..)

You are very early actually (i know what you mean btw). The core isn't even finished yet and mainstream isn't using it. I argue that you are still early on bitcoin too. So, welcome, pull up a pew or find something to do Tongue Like maybe you could make a cool/er website for shadow.cash?

Early you say? I thought SDC is here for some time (well yeah, if you compare it to BTC being used by general public, I am early).. or am I confusing it with something else (like ShadowCoin, or it just evolved)?

Cooler Shadow.cash website you say? I don't think I'm capable of making it better. In fact, I'm in love with it ATM (as I said, the redesign is amazing).
But I'd love to help out somehow, if the time comes :]

Can anyone help me explain:

If blockchain is unreadable, in combination with snarks and rings and what not. How can we be sure of the total amount of coins in existence? Is it still possibile to see that? What if someone would try to cheat the amount?
Sorry for my Noobiness.

Loading the Android wallet- looks like it's syncing up to about 60K blocks left and freezing up. Good wifi connection. Normal, or do I need to do something with my phone?

Sorry if this has already been asked & answered, long topic! Can't wait to start staking!

Truth be told, Android wallet sucks in my opinion.

If you have it running in the background, it will probably have syncing issues.

I do believe the devs are going to redesign the wallet with a friendlier UI and using their SPV code for faster syncing and smaller blockchain. Can't wait for that.

i am sure after ZK-snarks full release dev team will solve it

in my computer i am using lite wallet, and it works perfectly and sync very fast....so why not android wallet in the future

It might be nice to have the whole thing living on a SD card. That way there would be less of a problem with blockchain size, and you could swap cards and move your wallet to a new phone. Maybe even trade the cards as a form of physical SDC.

Hey Automatic Monkey,

Thanks for the input. I would suggest creating a feature request on Shadowtalk. It's easier for the team to consider improvements when they are easier to find. Feedback via bitcointalk posts tend to get lost because it's one giant thread.
