I think I may have broken my daemon to the point that I may need to reboot the vm after I shutdown the daemon, so it may appear to be offline for a bit, hopefully not more than 15 minutes. What happened is this;

I went back to the original ann for Silkcoin to get the specs;

Specifications
Block time: 1 minute
Maximum POW supply: ~45 million
Difficulty retarget: every block
Stake interest: 2% annually
Min transaction fee: 0.0001 SC
Fees are paid to miners
Confirmations: 10, maturity: 350
Minimum stake age: 12 hours - No max age
P2P port: 16666, RPC port: 16667

I should have looked at the original thread when we first started this.
Because a transaction takes 10 confirmations and then 350 confirmations before mature for staking

Based on that, I created 25 addresses in the daemon wallet and started sending 2 Silkcoins to each address
The first round of 25 worked pretty well, but I got carried away and ran it 2, 3, or 4 more times so I have 75 to 125 transactions processing through the daemon.
Needless to say after finally going to bed and now waking up, the vm is and has been at 100% CPU, more than likely all night long since around 3am

I just stopped the daemon and am waiting for the process to end, then I'll reboot.
I'll post when it's back online

Yeah mate
the old Silkcoin wallet is a resource eater
if I run another one on my PC it just overloads everything and the CPU get's too hot because my thermal paste is gone and the cooling sucks right now
I envy you running 25
so what do we need basically?
more coins, more wallets, more time.... Huh

We need coins to mature so that we can stake them. The problem is the 360 confirms to mature. We aren't making allot of blocks right now. So getting 360 confirms is taking for ever.

We need an old bag holder to stake their wallet to move some blocks.

If i send coins to another wallet they will take an additional 360 confirms. So i'm torn. I know more wallets staking will move blocks but we need to move blocks now. So i don't want to move a bunch of silkcoin around.

Sucks man, all the dev team needs to do it stake some coins before they get burnt. Or if they changed the confirms to some thing lower for us, we could at least get the chain moving faster. even 100 or 50 confirms would get us going faster.
They are busy though so i dunno. We're stuck between a rock and a hard place.

The chain might literally be dead. If we don't have old coins to move the chain, ours' stuck staking won't change until they get the 360 confirms.

We will be waiting for some one with a huge wallet to come on and stake..

You guys see what i'm saying? It might need more than just community support to make an "indefinite" swap possible. You can't even really relaunch under legacy silk because there is no one to do things that need to be done.

How else to breath life into the blockchain?
