Thanks!! Most people are in this for the masternodes. Its a breathe of fresh air for someone to appreciate the purpose of the project.

UPDATE

It has been a busy week for us. We have been working hard nearly around the clock to try and get the new features added to the coin. Starting with a basic base allows us to do a lot more with the currency but we have found the drawback has become how time consuming this has become. We understand that all of you are getting very excited and want the new features but progress takes time and we want to be absolutely sure that everything is perfect for you!

 

Difficulty Targeting
We have found a few bugs in the way difficulty targeting currently works and have employed a solution to allow for quicker adjustments. You may have noticed this and not realized- pool hashrate is higher then network hashrate. No, this is not the pools fault it is the network. It does not affect payouts and you are still generating blocks its just a matter of cleaning some of the code up and changing a few things. You should be able to expect this to be in a near-future update to the wallet.

Importing Keys
We hope all of you have had success with recovering your funds from the cryptomoneros paper wallet generator. We are very grateful to have had a community member step forward and offer something to windows users and others who did not know how to compile a linux wallet. Currently we are working on getting the fixed code ported over to the wallet GUI for all of you. As the code is right now, its very rudimentary and clunky to use. Again we would like to thank all of you for being as patient as you have with this, we understand its not easy knowing if your coins are secure or not.

Exchanges
We have received replies from a few exchanges and will hold a funding round this Sunday to procure funds for listing. Masternode coins will be auctioned on Sunday and used for the listing fee. We hope that each of you are able to contribute to the funding rounds and look forward to working with all of you. We will begin with 10 masternodes for sale and depending on demand from the community we may hold a second round of auctions.
Info:
Masternode auction begins SUNDAY at 3:00PM PST

Masternodes
Ah yes, Masternodes. What all of you are here for. The good news is that developers are making great headway and basic functionality should begin testing next week. This does not mean they will be functional and released, there is still quite a bit of work to do. This is currently our main focus and we look forward to being the first cryptonight currency to fully realize masternodes. Developer talks and current circulating supply suggest a higher MN cost than originally anticipated, we hope all of you understand and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. The good news is the network is still small so there is plenty of time to mine the coins yourself before masternodes are here!
