I had a question concerning the wallet. I have over 29k transactions in my wallet (according to
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/trust/) and it has become sluggish. I have only had this addy since 4/1/2015. Firstly, does that effect staking? Secondly, should i create a new wallet and send my coins there or just send them back to myself at the same address? My wallet.dat file is ~20MB and I have a 6 core processor (4.2Ghz) and a SSD (850pro) if that helps you appreciate my situation. I actually upgraded to a SSD mainly for TRUSTplus staking (sluggish wallet), plus I really wanted one. In the past I just create a new address in a new wallet and that solves it (sluggishness).
Also, does Stafur still work on the project? Haven't heard anything from him in a while.
I stake on a RPi and host some stakers world wide on Virtual Servers. Some coins require more power than others. TRUST does use all of a 850mhz RPi, half of a RPi2. On windows it seems to use a 1/3 no matter what the system. This will become harder to stake as transactions and more people start PoSing. I have no problem hosting your wallet.dat file for staking. I am trusted members of crypto community for fixing and hosting wallet.dat files. Find me on twitter if you are interested and I can tell you your risk/options.
Stafur is not active with TRUST but still has all of his credentials to work with the code. We thank him for his contribution of the Android wallet. He is a really intelligent person and hope he will rejoin once we have our legal status.
For those that are wondering, while I wait to see how the coin, mitchellmint, and others progress, I am still working on open source python, Android, and qt wallets on my own time. On my own test network, I've already been able to test new protocols that would transition well to the live network.
In particular, I am waiting to see the implementation of sidechains that use bitcoin core. Depending if their solution is more elegant than the proposal I have presented, I may or may not consider incorporating that code into my test network.
So far the coin is working as designed and I would prefer to keep the number of updates that modify things to a minimum.
As you may know, those kinds of updates and upgrades should be handled carefully and announced with plenty of time so as many folks as possible are on the same page.
In the meantime, those who support this coin may be happy that it seems to be showing growth as it matures.
