If you were the person who just sent me some Silkcoins, just a little bit ago.. Thank you!

Such are great community here. Silkcoin truly has one of the most honest, humble, and dedicated communities in crypto. Mike comes in here and we throw a couple thousand silk at him. Pull up a chair, brother, stay awhile!

CryptoJohn, welcome back friend.

Would some one take time out and explain me, what new development is coming on Silkcoins path? I see few people commenting, but nothing pinpoint what development.

Sorry Jaipagare, sometimes we forget that not everybody is in the silkcoin google hangout. Email hanzlambrecht@gmail.com and ask him to add you to the conversation. There are hundreds of more pages there where you can see the development in progress.

There is no Silkcoin "dev". Members of the community donate their time and expertise working together for the greater good. We've been there man. We've been from the bottom, to the top and back down. The truth stayed behind and did what it took to survive. Some of us rewrote the code, some built the new website, others did graphic design, organization, donations, multipool, voting systems, wrote articles, whatever we could do. We have all built a new foundation that grows stronger everyday.

In development: dedicated multipool, updated wallet, in-wallet voting system and encrypted messaging.

The new wallet being released has a voting system that will allow the community to vote on direction. A voting system will allow us to move forward with intent. Kind of like a brain, like consciousness. It gives us, the community, the economy, the ecosystem (what ever you want to call it) a meaning, a structure. We can now have vision, grow and evolve rapidly from here.

The encrypted messaging system is in final testing. This will allow the community to have conversation and discourse inside the wallet, inside the ecosystem. I'm telling you friends, this is about to get exciting!

For me the natural extension of blockchain technology is towards online identity and voting.
Spending money is after all a form of voting and impetus for evolution in a capitalistic economy.

My reasons for ongoing interest in Silkcoin summarized for myself and others:
1. community take over
2. proof of stake
3. voting

If Silkcoin has a feedback mechanism in the form of project voting and a mechanism for designation of funds to projects based on staking weight and decided by voting, then it turns into something else completely.
At that point it turns into a system that creates itself.

What I hope it creates itself into is this:
A system for immediate, frictionless and secure payments peer to peer.
A system for persistent vendor identity, feedback and communication, none of it requiring trust.
A system for collating and consolidating community ideas and so direct incentive driven projects with built-in rewards on delivery.

What I hope the result will be:
A new way to communicate and transact, less wasted time and resources, more space for community and creativity.
