I've been busy developing so I haven't replied much but I just wanted to quickly say 1) thanks everyone who donated so far (currently full time through October 27)! and 2) I'm still on track for a (binary-only, sorry) testnet version for October 15. It will be binary only to prevent copy-cat coins. If you want to try out the Zerocoin testnet but are the type of person who only trusts compiling from source, I recommend running on a dedicated machine or in a VM.
Good plan. I like that you are making it harder for clones to copy us!
Can you or Meeh address the stuck transaction/Cryptsy issue? I think it is a very big deal (especially as new people start to trade ANC as Zerocoin approaches) but I have not seen any estimates on a fix.
Cryptsy claims it is an issue with our code and that nothing is wrong on their end. Can you confirm or deny this?
Thanks again for your hard work. Looking forward to testnet!
