because it's not a secret anymore who is all involved in this Project this 30 minute presentation of Michel Bauwens could be very interesting for all. He doesn't mention Faircoin and Faircoop directly but you can easily get what he means now;)

That one is really good. It's sounds like Utopia. Would like to work in such an environement!!

So I read that right you plan to build a completly new and independent socialistic Economy-System with FairCoin as money!?

I am ... surprised.. and confused. Not really sure what to think about all this but I wish you much success.

---

I just downloaded the wallet (windows , binary, 64bit).

It looks good.

Some small things that you might check/improve:

1. In the OP the wallets to download (the binaries) are somewhat hard to find. I am used to click the first link which speaks about wallet and ended up in the github despiratly looking for binaries.

2. Installers are not everyones taste. Especially not in crypto and when they need admin rights. I don't trust installers.
So it might be helpfull to also put up a zip pack for manual install. You can unpack the installer with 7Zip and pick out the files like I did it but not everyone knows that and knows which files to pick.

3. The config file:
Does it has to be Faircoin.conf or Faircoin.info .. I still have both (windows) from my old wallet and have not found the info which one is right on the page where I downloaded the wallet and nighter in the readme.

(edit: just saw it's mentioned ont he webpage)

4. Why is there a readme.txt included that talks about novacoin instead FairCoin?


Hi gadado,

Thanks for your feedback. I'm commenting on your wallet issues:

  • The correct download link for the wallet is mentioned 3 times before any github link, so this should be OK. But one is for sure, the OP need a major rework. We'll take care of that.
  • We decided remove the binaries to decrease the download size. Although, we will add those files back in the next wallet release.
  • ok...
  • Thanks for the hint. This will be corrected in the next release.

Welcome to Faircoin  Smiley
