I cannot find any source code. It seems that it's closed source.

Ray, while you are on fire, what do you think about VoIP calls as another feature?
Two coins I know of have it already, may be a good addition for ZEIT, too.
XBoT does not provide source as dev got it from Vior coin in exchange for Twitter bot.  
Vior coin (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-viorcoin-voice-video-call-viornumber-cheap-international-calls-834910) is the first coin to bring it and maybe their code should be checked first.

That is totally in line with Zeitgeist: taking the technology and innovations of today to build a better future. The real value of these alt coins is to test out new innovations before being used in real coins anyways.

I've never held a wallet with an explorer before! (and I've had a fair few over the year)
Even VRC - which has more gadgets than the space shuttle - doesn't have that.

Well thieved, anyway

  I think 50% of the coins out there have an explorer.
I am a thief 

Happy with new new wallet

Does any other coin have built-in explorer or are we unique?

You can use any wallet with a version number 2.X and above.

Cheers,
Ray

Good stuff Lion! Thanks for the blog sharing! Can you post of PM me a link to more info on Bytecent? Sounds right up my alley!

It's taken me until now to update all 3 wallets because I was in a heavy staking phase & wanted it settled before playing. 154 million now.

The new wallet looks really kewl & works as advertised Well done Ray. LOVE the idea of having the explorer in the wallet too!

Even though I haven't posted in a while, I've been keeping up with the banter. Some great ideas being kicked around. Zeitcoin is in good hands, I think.

I've been spending most of my time over on CoinBlab, doing my bit (sic) for a kinda-revolutionary project some may have heard of, IconicExperts' "ByteCent". Could be a real game-changer, it's pure CPU solo-mining (even my ratty old Core2Duo is mining acceptably!) with no botnets or farms allowed due to 'Proof of Miner' (The more coins you have in your wallet, the longer you can mine without entering a captcha.) It's early days but it's already looking like being a real winner, if for no other reason than it's designed to be as easy as possible for a crypto-noob to get started. Ooh, nearly forgot - you can mine BYC on your CPU while still mining with your GPU, (I'm still mining Blake-256) so it's more efficient use of your rigs as a bonus

If I cashed out now, I'd be maybe just under a bitcoin up (in six days!), but I'm HODL as I think it'll be worth 10x that in a month or so, when the external promotion campaign bears fruit. Probably worth those of you who have 'spare' PCs & lappies having a shufti at it, but as always DYOR

I'm working on some stuff for the Knights as well, The Lion hasn't forgotten where his first loyalty lies, but I'm in no rush to push it out yet.

So yeah - my 1000th post here, and I became a 'senior' sometime in the last fortnight or so too. Doesn't time fly!

@stevegreer - Great blog, I shared it on FB & twatter.
@kiklo - No sweat, we all 'lose the plot' from time to time. No hard feelings

For Anyone downloading ZeitCoin Ver 2.0.1.3 and you don't want to wait for the Blockchain to download from the beginning.

or

Make sure Zeitcoin is closed

Then Unpack and copy & replace the files from Zeitcoin-Blockchain into C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Zeitcoin

Then open Zeitcoin and it will start syncing the BlockChain from the 11-17-2014 instead of the start.

New Wallet is really Fast, Thanks Ray.

Yes, you need to download/sync the chain, sorry.
Index structure has been changed.

More information you'll find here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9551752

There is no need to update to 2.0.1.3.
In January 2015 there will be a Mandatory.

Seems there is an issue after block 1051201 (threshold 25%->20%):

I did not checked it, yet, but it's the next point on my to-do list.

Cheers,
Ray

so its required to redownload the blockchain for this update? also love the idea of aligning with other coins. supernet and blocknet are doing something similiar. obviously i want zeit to have its own niche in the cryptoverse as well.

Great job - I downloaded the latest wallet and the coins are staking again. It's pretty fast with the download of the block chain.

The coins mint every 20 days, so if you are saying that you purchased a few thousand on 11/3 then you likely won't see anything mint until 11/23 at the earliest.

I've been test-staking a few thousand of these puppies since 11/3 of this year and have yet to receive anything.  Is this typical for Zeitcoin?

Exactly, the problem is that Zeit needs to be exclusively accepted, or there needs to be some sort of promotion that encourages people to exchange their bitcoins and litcoins for zeit to make the purchase. It really comes down the marketing. =/

And you are right that a coin is only a means to an end, it's the ecosystem that matters. Blood gives life to an organism, but without the body of the organism the blood is useless.

The purpose of the chat feature, however, is to bring all users of zeitcoin into a central location. Not everyone communicates via bitcointalk, and even fewer people use the forums (having a direct link to the forums on the wallet is a GREAT idea by the way, as long as the forum is kept up). However, everyone uses the wallet, and we all have the wallet in common. The Zeitcoin forums and bitcoin forums can go down, but as long as the wallet exists, we would ALWAYS have a means to talk to each other.

Hello folks, I am liking the effort being made to bring Zeit into mainstream and I hope I can help with that.

Since you mentioned a potential alliance with EMC2, I'll share a bit of info with you's all. When my store is up n running, EMC2 will be accepted as payment ... and so will Zeit, I hope. Was thinking to take BTC and others but it doesn't quite push the message I want and not expecting to make a lot of money at 1st so would rather score some brownie points for being stubborn  

EMC2 has some serious potential with the science niche and fits into my love of science, while Zeit was always meant to be widely distributed and being an accountant, I am rather deep into Zeitgeist philosophy since I can actually see stuff going on.

There was a time I was a tad sceptical about future of Zeit .. did lose a ton of money on it, some in the mining pool that never paid out and some stolen by Mintpal and Craptsy and CoinEx .. but kept buying. And now PoS coins are all the rage ... with this spanking new wallet being so much faster than old one, it will be easier to attract new folks while price is still low.

Also .. we need a pool .. multi algo, I only have X11 cards left. 

Hi,

I believe a coin is only a means to an end.
It's the ecosystem around which makes a coin usable.
Maybe it's cool to have all the features, but that's only a technical component.

People shouldn't say: "I have zeit, what can I do with it?"
It should sounds like this: "Wow, what a cool Store, Charity etc... I NEED Zeit for that."

Another idea: Why not coming together with other coins?

As an example:
Einsteinium, ZEIT & Mint will form the Good Coin Alliance.
Every Project of the GCA accepts EMC, ZEIT and MINT. We need no Supernet, we need more friendships between trusted Altcoins.
There are too many coins around -> The winner are Exchanges.

GCA Community could create a Multiwallet. Without any FIAT/BTC Gateway. People should be able to pay something directly with a GCA Coin.

Another example:
I would offer an Logo/Webdesign/Music/CGI service. The one and only way to get my work: Pay with ZEIT. Not with BTC, no LTC.
That's the whole trick: ZEIT must becomes a meaning.

Last example:
Charity organization spend button. With one click you could help - I will change it to FIAT and send it to the relevant location.
It's so easy, you need no bank transfer anymore -> you have a service for that: You can help with the triviality of a click.
Well, perhaps you're thinking: OK, good idea (for Ray) to get rich - but there are several ways to confirm.

Zeitcoin wallet can be the job of 2 people.
Zeitcoin ecosystem has to be the job of us all. Everyone can be a part of it - without any special knowledge.

My 100 cents,

Cheers,
Ray
