I hate to be that guy but I think that I may have gotten confused.  The Tor Stick was released but I thought that a download would be available for free...

Did I misunderstand or can I just not find it?  I placed an order but wanted to check it out...

in the 5 1/4 inch floppy  drive (sarcasm)

this.

it looks like it has a flip plug also for a USB port if I am not mistaken

Well there is a usb stick and a CARD.. where does the card plug in?

usb stick

Where does TOR card plug into computer? Sorry for noob question

Thanks for the weekly review driv3n. Good idea!

Now is a good time to buy, if these prices stay where they're at my next paycheck will probably find its way over to MP so I can pick up some more. 

I love XC.. Bought some more earlier, not alot, 12 XC, but that's a lot for me

Everyone is finally realizing the only significant thing cloak had going for it was hype. And hype dies fast.

Feels good to be in XC, where it's much more than just hype.

this is a great idea!


btw anything happened to cloak? I seen really fast downtrend

The XC Daily Update is a great addition to this thread so I thought I'd put together a weekly review for anyone who has missed some of the developments this week.... if theres anything else that needs to be added please let me know.

***The Unofficial XC Weekly Review***


Soon XC will add a new layer of privacy based on your XChat address.

XChat addresses are soon to be implemented as "stealth addresses" to which people can send payments.

This means that you'll receive payment on a different address that not even the sender knows.

As such, you can publicly display your XChat address as a kind of cryptographic "business card" for both payments and messages, without anything being linked to it on the blockchain!

Finally, combining this with Privacy Mode will conceal the amounts sent to this address.

XC is very proud to launch its very own store!


Go ahead, buy yourselves TOR Sticks @ www.xcmerch.com


- All orders are currently pre-orders with an estimate arrival date of late August for the first batch.

Product Description:

Portable privacy: The XC TOR Stick runs a secure XC wallet, connects to XC’s network via TOR, and makes your coins as portable as a credit card.

XCurrency is very proud to announce the XC TOR Stick, a milestone in digital privacy. It’s a fully featured Xnode “wallet” embodied in a flash drive that connects to the XC network over TOR for maximum privacy. With no installation required, it leaves no trace on the computer you use it on, and its ultra-portable form factor allows you to carry your XCurrency around as easily as a credit card.

XC is the current market leader in decentralised private cryptographic transactions, being the first project to deliver a working, scalable anonymous platform for digital transactions, communication and other “Blockchain 2.0” services. The XC TOR Stick enlarges this platform by adding several unique use-cases:
USE CASES

The XC TOR Stick is a fully featured app; it can stake coins or earn Xnode transaction fees when running. In keeping with XC’s flexible approach to design, it can run on any computer, and can be embodied in other flash drives, CDs, or a virtualised environment. And of course it is private, very private: not only do transactions leave no link between sender and receiver, but your IP address is not revealed, thanks to TOR.

    • Insert it into any computer to make payments without installing anything.
    • Unplug it, and none of your personal files or information remain on the computer.
    • When unplugged it functions as cold storage for your coins.
    • Keys can be imported into it, allowing it to function as a backup of your addresses.
    • By existing outside of a computer it is protected against viruses.
    • Make a safe copy of the private keys on it, and you won’t even lose funds if you lose your TOR stick.

TOR-STICK ISO Updated to XChat RC3

http://downloads.xc-official.com/release/xc-torstick/XCurrency_livecd_X86_v2.47h.iso

For those of you who don't want to wait, you can make your own XC Tor Stick using the above link and a flash drive.

RC4 is not going to amaze the world - they arer too slow and too #$%^@@^.

Looks like people unloading to chase the DRK pump pre Rev 4 release.  Time to buy some cheap XC.

Welcome! Fortunately nothing's wrong. :-) Just wait - your coins will age until they're mature enough to stake.

After than you can expect them to stake at time intervals between 8 hours and 30 days.

You don't need to run your wallet continually. Just start it up once every few days. (The best strategy is to start using it to message people privately because then you'll be running it anyway.)

For regular and consistent payments, send chunks of 50 - 500 coins to different addresses. Make sure you send each chunk in a single payment.

For more info check out the how-to.

Another thing I've noticed is that the XC network has been steadily growing... two months ago there were rarely more than 10+ active connections to the network and this weekend we've been at 30+ every time I've checked which is great to see.

Just takes a little time for your coins to mature, check back in a few hours and that message will probably be updated and you're coins will be minting
