Yep. With Gulden Wallets you can do everything without the need of a third party. No need for a staking service or mining pool or whatever. It’s all done in your own wallet, with your own keys. Awesome!

Now with Dex it will go even further, trading in your own wallet! And maybe, who knows, we will get lending funds in a later stage....

That’s why Gulden is developing an exchange.

Gulden will develop an in wallet dex exchange.

Yep, building rockets it too complicated. Let’s not head to the moon. Can someone please inform Musk!?
Actually the new Gulden chain is 58% more efficient, so that will help exchanges with lesser load on their systems.
Note: Bittrex’s wallet is up and running again. They supported Gulden from the beginning and still do. Very much appreciated. Thanks.

Bittex has a very large amount of transactions on their account, takes a tad longer for them to synch than for a regular user. They are on it. If not already finished. Trading is not affected. Just deposit and withdrawels.

Today the long awaited Phase4 of Gulden’s PoW2 roll out activated. Along with a greatly improved chain efficiency and new features the update also increased the rewards for those running witness accounts.

Gulden is mids an enormous transition to the new Mainnet. Please upgrade the desktop wallet to at least version 2.2.0.4. It will take a little longer to synch compared to previous updates, since it will download the complete blockchain again.

There is no marketcap for EFL. Last 4 days it had 1€ volume. So it’s dead. Officially. No trade, no development, dead. The marketcap it has is just were it passed away... R.I.P. EFL.

Who is ‘we’? Thought you where the only one left with some EFL! 😆
Glad Gulden is doing development. Don’t want to be as arrogant and stupid as Kodak once was. We know how that ended.

Gulden is Rank 70 on CMC now from last weeks rank 74.  Just filter out the non-mineable coins. As you would filter on cars and not schoolbussen and trucks when looking for a new ride on eBay. 😘
Historically Gulden was rank 13. Let’s see if we can climb back slowly.

Yep.,
And as expected, mining rewards are hodled for a large percentage. Looks promising.

Ok, the following is a quote from the blog Malcolm just released.

“We have always maintained that a blockchain that is secure, has stable block intervals, is robust and scalable, are the bare minimum requirements and that only with this in place does it make sense to build more user visible products and really push for adoption.”

Together with the recent news that Gulden is in the top 11 on node count, If people are still hesitant to buy into Gulden, I really don’t know what else could convince you.

Nice! Glad it also works for you.
Maybe you want to try mining as well. It’s super easy to set up. In the same Gulden desktop wallet. Just choose to add a mining account , dedicate 4GB and go.

You have to keep the wallet open, the computer running and an active internet connection. Please make sure you did put a password on the wallet!
If you can not meet these criteria, you can always export the witnesskey and place it in an Cloud service as offered by https://cloud.g-dash.nl/
The beauty about witness is that the funds will always stay on your account (recoveryphrase) and sending the witnesskey only gives others the possibility to receive the rewards, not your initial funding the witness deposito. GDash will sent rewards back to you every 4 hours (if any received of course). You pay 1 nlg per block you/they witness.

You can adjust the 25k account when phase4 comes.

WITNESS IN PHASE 4: THE CHANGES (ENGLISH)
When phase 4 is released, it will bring new functionality to everybody who is operating as a witness. In this post we would like explain what this new functionality is. (Thanks to Malcolm for the summary and Aat for the stAatistics)

COMPOUNDING OF EARNINGS
Option to automatically add the rewards you receive for being a witness to the existing locked balance of your witness account, this added amount increases your witness account weighting as if it were there from the accounts creation.

OPTIMISE YOUR ACCOUNT
The UI will provide a convenient single and simple to use interface (a single button you can press) to perform split/merge for you as appropriate without having to worry about the details yourself.

EXTEND YOUR ACCOUNT
Add more time and/or amount to an already locked account (restrictions apply)

ROTATE
You can change your witnessing key, for example in case you given it to a service like g-dash and don’t want that anymore, or have reason to believe your witnessing device was hacked, etc.

HIGHER REWARDS
Due to the decision to change the blockreward, witnesses will receive 30nlg reward in phase 4, in stead of the 20nlg one would receive in phase 3. Community member Aat created a nice overview of what expected rewards will be when phase 4 starts (based on the current witness accounts statistics, which are subject to change)

SegWit is not just Blocksize. Gulden implemented only the parts they seemed beneficial. It therefor is an own developed version with it’s own name: (I keep confusingly mixing both names).

Phase4 includes the following: (SegSig is already implemented, Gulden calls it SegWit.)

Gulden can be programmed like Bitcoin, but not yet to the extent as ETH is. But that is on the wishlist. You need the basics first (being a solid and fast and secure chain, which we have completed with phase4), than you can proceed with the more fancy stuff like tokens on top of Gulden.
