Hello everybody, i understand many of you are frustrated about missing the deadline, many of you are questioning whether the devs have given up. I had a talk with gnosis who is working very hard. He does not want to spend a lot of time explaining why he did not finish when that time could be used trying to finish sooner Wink

Right Now Gnosis is working on the ZC mint-related logic. The Zerocoin checkpointing however is more work than anticipated.


Within Check-pointing:
1) miners accumulating minted coins into checkpoints (DONE),
2) verifying checkpoints upon receiving a block (IN PROGRESS),
3) storing and loading checkpoints in leveldb
4) fix miner coin accumulation so it doesn't restart from scratch each time there's a new transaction

Gnosis say another day or so for #2

Next: (2-4 days each)
    wallet witness update
    wallet mint logic
    refactor CoinSpend
    RPC create spend + impl.
    store own spend pieces locally
    RPC get seeding spend proofs
    net: seed spends
    net: receive and verify spends
    store received spend pieces
    wallet spend logic
    GUI

I will try to answer as best i can any questions people may have.

I'm glad to here that! I realize breaking new ground is never easy. Something like Zero coin is completely revolutionary and has never been done before, so I am not surprised it is taking longer than expected. Any word about frozen transfers with Cryptsy? Like everybody else I am frustrated, but I still have faith in Gnosis. Tell him I'm with him!
