Excellent coin with an amazing developer but with one single major flaw.

Too many coins.

I will get a lot of hate and post might get deleted but sometimes tough love is what's needed.

most of our coins have already been produced.. we're only making something like 9 million coins a day now.

it's not made to get everyone rich right away, it's a privacy tool/currency, designed to be open to anyone.


I respect your opinion since with a lower quantity it may appear to be more scarce, therefore more valuable, but I do not believe that Verge has "too many" coins.

A bigger issue could be if there were "too few" coins, which would necessitate the need to go into the decimals to use them, which would work of course, but be less convenient.

If something costs 15 XVG, 150 XVG, 1500 XVG, or 15000 XVG, it doesn't seem that big a deal, where .00015 XVG may be.

Long term, having more coins may be a benefit when Verge's distribution increases.

It may even be psychologically advantageous since it feels kind of good to have a bunch of something, even though a lower quantity could have the same value.
I'd be in favor of removing some decimal amounts. What you say about psychological advantage is really true. 8 decimal places makes Bitcoin so unfriendly and "techy". Ending at .01 would be much easier IMHO. I'd love an update doing this.


All --

I have linked and responded to this conversation in the price speculation thread as the topic is more relevant to be discussed over there.

XVG is one of my favourite coins, been steadily buying more since the crash from 30 sats.
I think it will make a break soon.

So i have had a XVG transaction 'stuck' for about 3 days now, and i am uncertian what to do. The blockchain says the coins are there safe, so im not worried about losing them.

However i would like to see the balence updated in my wallet instead of nothing.

I am using Coinomi wallet, anyone have any ideas why it wont show up?

yep, im working on our server the android wallets connect to right now =]

edit: im actually syncing the electrum server back up right now, so hopefully android wallets will be connecting again within a few hours. ill be working until they are.


hope everyone is liking 2.1 so far =]
Downloaded new Mac wallet last night..Love the radio.. Had no coins yet but still listen to great classic rock!! Do you plan on doing a iphone wallet? If so you should look at a clone of the BTC Airbitz iphone wallet.. It is by far the best iphone wallet I have ever used..Thanks for all the hard work

ok here's a win qt wallet for 2.1 that i stripped the radio out of in the mean time.

so all links in OP and website have 2.1 now.

i spent most of today compiling qt, and then compiling one of its modules, and it's still running right now, so i decided

to get one done that just doesnt have the radio since thats what has been holding back the windows release.

ill update you guys tomorrow on my progress with 2.1 for windows with radio. also, ill start working on the i2p and tor only versions of 2.1

remember, get this wallet before tomorrow night. fork to x17 and blake2s additions starts at block 380k

This may sound like a noob question, but can someone point me toward instructions on how to use the windows non-gui wallet?

its actually identical to using a linux daemon.

basically, as long as you have a VERGE.conf in your blockchain/wallet directory - on windows it's in C:\users\(your user)\AppData (appdata is hidden, go to organize\folder+search options\view\show hiddenfiles)\Roaming\VERGE\

then you can run it like VERGEd -daemon  (wait a bit for it to start up) then once you get a command prompt again, you can do VERGEd help for a full list of commands. either way though, a windows wallet will be out today, but it may or may not have the radio player built in. that's what is keeping it up. last night i compiled Qt 5.6 from their git repo, and it took several hours. when i woke up i realized it had used the remaineder of the virtual hard drive i was working on (it used something like 20gb) 

please dont think i'm slacking on the win/android wallets, i assure you i'm working on them around the clock, quite literally.. there's just been a lot of little hurdles with windows, qt, and streaming mp3s..

windows wallet will be out today, even if i have to take the radio out temporarily, and compile it with 5.2 or 5.4, and then continue working on it after.

Thanks,

I figured out the adding of the conf file by taking a quick screenshot before it disappeared, and was then able to read the message to do so.

Will let it run a while longer and see how that works (Since I didn't wait much).

I don't see any slacking at all, and actually am enjoying the figuring out of this stuff.
