The amount and diversity of information is staggering - but it becomes too difficult for me to follow. I understand that temple coin and shaligram are sistercoins. I understand they are meant to have a value.

To be a more blunt - and less esoteric person - i have a few questions: Currently there are two mining pools of shaligram, but there is no exchange (right?). There is no clear website regarding shaligram nor is their an active community (which differ from an active developer). But the developer has several other cryptocurrencies in development?

PS. @benedictonathan i had no trouble sync shaligram.
