Lots of good news coming up. People are working hard in the background.

When will be new versoin of wallet?

Hopefully in the next few months.

So....  I'm beginning to lose faith.  We have been promised a new wallet for over a year (it honestly might be two).  While I have my cpu farm running strong and we all keep waiting and praying for the developers to give us an update; there are several people who are just pumpin and dumpin our coin.  I haven't remained loyal all of this time just because I'm stubborn and don't want to accept a loss.  It happens.  I get it.  But people - do you understand the protocol of this?  It is exceptional.  It is something worth holding on to and continuing to mine.

However.... YAC came out in 2013.  And unfortunately we have seen little development of success.  One of the biggest problems are people are trying to work independently.  Tbh, there are probably even more miners than I realize, but...  when we don't have promised updates, and the websites are down, and the forums can't be accessed, and the blockchains aren't viable, and we can't even get on an exchange....  To someone new?  They aren't even going to learn the fundamentals of the coin.  btw?  Hows that white paper going for the public in 2014 and it will be posted soon.  Guys, are you listening.  Yac, has a very strong, fundamental idea and way of countering ASICs and providing an even distribution.  The things most people hate about bitcoin.  I don't understand why this is still under the radar.

PS - I syned my wallet today.  From my mining, I have a total of about 3700 yac.  I'm not some big time investor who is trying to get paid like a lot of people on these forums.  this is one of the few protocols I've seen that is truely unique - and yet, we just accept that it didn't catch on.  guys, I'll say it again.  This is our coin.  Our project.  What are we doing about it?

Edit:  lets not forget less than 100 posts this year.... and I forum I still can't access even after I've emailed the webkeeper.  And the faucet?  Number 1, 2 or 3?  ha, haha, hahaha - I don't want to even think about it.  We look so stupid right now.

Your frustration is certainly warranted. The people that ran the forum and faucet seem to no longer be around. As far as the website, this is still there... just waiting for a pull request! https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin.org This is a volunteer only, open source project. if you don't like that the faucet no longer works... fix it! Or find or pay someone that can. As you somewhat mentioned, the general crypto-coin game is almost 100% based on pump and dump for Bitcoin. No-one, for the most part, cares about anything else. But, as you mentioned WE DO. 

As for the wallet, I am now spending at least 40 hours a week getting things to where they need to be along with help from ol-c-coder and senj. Lots of progress has been made so far, but things still need to be finished and tested before we release the 0.4.5 upgrade.
