5000Bitcoins: About which Ethercoin suggestion are you talking?
About the price. Yes I think after we finally have the custom blockchains we will see a HUGE price surge. So everyone who is holding Crypti now, should hold them for a few months. It will be insane IMHO.
Have you guys started work yet on custom blockchains, has any progess been made on it?
As mentioned by Max, Custom Blockchains is under development and has been for some time. The problem was that we started developing the solution because we thought we had completed the base PoT code. When it started causing problems, we had to put custom chains back on hold in order to fix the mainnet issues and so progress was halted. It will be picked back up as soon as the node versions are out to the public. We do have an answer planned out and we simply need time to finish it.
As far as getting those version out to you guys, I thought we were going to get it released while I was at work yesterday, which was the plan, but Eric discovered a bug that Boris had to fix and as always, bug fixes reset the testnet monitoring counter. So we had to restart testing with the bug fix to ensure it was working. Word from Eric and Sebastian this morning is that they found no more bugs last night so hopefully Boris and SyRenity can finalize the builds today and get them out. I can tell you that we have been very close for 2 days now but keep finding small bugs.
I apologize for not being as active with updates but I have been trying to write up the notes from our meetings for the team, working on the proposal and outline with the new designer (which I will talk about soon), and also write up my proposal / solution for a new system that could take the place of the PoT we were attempting before. I think I might have a possible answer but I have to write it up with diagrams and outline and that takes time. I also wanted to spend a little time with my kids after being gone for 3 days as well as having to go back to work yesterday and today.
We are working on a better system to keep all of our team members up to date on each others progress so that it will be easier for Max and William to help me keep you guys up to date when i'm unavailable. We definitely have room for improvement in overall communication and we have taken note.
