Awesome to stake on Androids now 
Links updated
New Update released :- Talkcoin
We have found a new exchange for TALK and are also pursuing other exchanges to list the coin. Please send BTC to
1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7 to donate to this drive and also if you can spare some to help maintain nodes and explorer.
We need 0.15 BTC for the exchange listing.

Nova is shuting down, we are trying to get listed on alternative exchanges. Anyone who can spare some BTC to cover costs, your donations would be most appreciated :-

so you can stake from your android device
Hopefully iOS in a bit too.
so you can stake from your android device
We now have a confirmed android build, still ironing out the issues.
The wallet is a FULL node, so you can stake from your android device. One of the reasons i am still keeping it in house is to try nd figure out if SPV staking can be achieved. Such a breakthrough would be game changing for a stake coin.

Great to see TALK getting some upgrades, one of the old school first generation shitcoins, unflushable!
If nyone has an account on Yobit, please do notify them that there has been a swap.

In order for the planned crosschain messaging to work , I have approached several teams so that we build a network. We will see who wants in.
What are the mining "threads" controls for and how would we use them? I rarely have mined with a wallet.
Those are obsolete now and will be removed, theey were meant to help with mining the first 10000 blocks which were PoW to help bootstrap staking... but working with another user we managed to whittle down the PoW blocks to less that 250 in total. So @ 5 TALK per block, we only added less that 1250 coins in order to get PoS reliably working. I consider this a massive success
I do too. I tried staking 2 years about with TALK but was staking about ten other coins and couldn't devote the time to it. The old wallet was one of the most problematic of all traded coins. Then staking for the last year with it anyway, so I know how great this upgrade is.

Not finding the binaries for the new wallet. Can you post a link here?

it's in the first post.
Thanks, sorry about that. Updating two different coins/wallets so wasn't thinking in sync.
The new wallet looks great!

The Nova Exchange wallet is under maintenance, are they doing the swap now or updating the wallet with a new release already on the new blockchain?
Both i think, it's always better if everyone pushes them to move faster, so open a ticket.

Hi all !
For as long as the network is this small (fell to 6 nodes), we will always have latency issues. One user solves a block, but by the time the announcement reaches the other end of the network, another block may have been generated there. I've managed to get the chain moving however we need to expand the node list.
I'll try get more vps nodes running if possible.

Chainz is well behind block 16283, hmmm...
Thank you for quick feed back
Yes I'm aware of that. I contacted them so hopefully they will resync too.
Should be at the block 16283 rn.

Add these nodes to your bitcointalkcoin.conf file:

Delete everything else in your Appdata directory and resync the client.

If you are having trouble syncing , please download the latest release. Also when reporting issues, perhaps fleshing out the report with details such as OS, system specs etc.
The network is still small, only 9 regular nodes.

How can I participate in this exchange? I'm quite new here, someone please tell me the benefits of this swap?
And do we need to contribute to a certain number of BTC so that the team can operate this swap best?
And do we need to contribute to a certain number of BTC so that the team can operate this swap best?
Hello and Welcome.
In order to participate, you should have been holding coins from the older chain, they were swapped 1:1 onto a new chain. The benefits of the swap are that the new chain is smaller allowing faster sync, backed by more advanced and robust code, can be maintained easily and allows us to move into a rebranding and introduction of new technologies.
The swap has already occured so in order to get coins, you have to go on to nova exchange and buy or look for a user willing to part with their coins.
Contributions to development and maintanance of the code, chain and network are always welcomed. The receiving address is 1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7
feel free to ask any other questions you may have

With the chain moving steadily towards stability (We need more stakers!). My focus has now gine more towards the development of the technologies i have been reseaching. While i can't make any formal announcements , i am currently in talks with three other projects in a bid to begin building the cross-chain messaging platform.
More news soon.

51/52, not too bad
Thanks! great to have an independent user verify this.
Yobit 0.5 BTC for swap. We can be listed on up to two different non-scam exchanges for that kind of money.
Yobit 0.5 BTC for swap.
Links updated, and some users have confirmed their wallet balances. The chain is moving along, but slowly due to low number of active stakers. Please start your wallets, confirm balance and help strengthen the network and blockchain.
Nova is on board. Meanwhile feel free to download the release candidate here :- Swap Wallet .
Once users have checked out their balances and confirmed their accuracy, i will release the final wallet with a checkpoint and we can get going, i have setup a block explorer :- EXPLORER so users can check their balances and i've also contacted fairglu so that the other explorer is updated.
To retrieve your coins:-
Make a back up of your old wallet.dat, they pop a copy of it in the new data directory. Start the new wallet and your balance should match. Pm me if you have any trouble or find me on discord

Address now reflects 0.051 BTC. So we are ready on that front. I am going to fill in their form now and submit, hopefully we can have the details down by end of day. Should this happen, the swap will happen at 00:00 GMT with the new chain kicking in almost immediately. Users will be able to check out their balances from block one so, anyone and everyone who can please setup nodes, run your wallets, mine/ stake and help us create a stable network.
With the change i will try to see if it can pay for at least one VPS and i'll setup a seed node, pool and block explorer (if it can handle it).

I agree that we need to get TALK listed on as many exchanges as possible but even just Novaexchange is not bad for now.
BTW how do we get a Copper member status for Talkcoin Team account?
Try Unnamed Exchange. A lot of good coins trust them and they are listing for free.

Reserved
Status
Swap complete
Currently working on wallets for all platforms.
Infrastructure
We will need to get two good reliable VPSes. I use Crown Cloud and that would be ideal. The cost will be 2* $70 for a year.
Software
At launch binaries are available for Windows/Linux and Mac, although there has been having trouble getting the latest version of Bitcoin (on which our source is based) to build a mac dmg. I will be working with the bitcoin core team here :- Mac build progress to resolve it. An Android version is also in the works , but may take longer.
Technologies
I intend to begin releasing updates that will integrate techniologies and functionality that i have been working on , such as cross-chain messaging which uses teh TOTEM protocol. (All of which is in my soon to be written white-paper)
when i have completed at least the android build
Anyone who wishes to assist in paying for exchanges and infrastructure please send what ever you can to 1TALKKm3NsChVzuPbdmvuDPMTW2Ld8Ss7 . The faster we get everything set up and paid for , the better.
