I'm going to release the public alpha version of PoSV daemon and QT wallet in coming days, probably as early as this weekend. In order to start minting straight away when you get hold of the wallet, you need to mine and age some coins on testnet now.
I guess that must be the reason for price going up!
One of many. I can;t believe all the stuff this coin has going on and very little hype. Which is fine with me as I am trying to get more before it really explodes!
