CONFIRMED:

Sent coins to personal computer wallet last night.  Transfer has been confirmed today.  The node is now working and syncing the network.

More nodes would be appreciated, if you do not know how to setup a node, but do have a VPS.  I can setup the node for you / shieldcoin.

We do desperately need a few more nodes.

thank you in advance.
