The delay and silence we're due to personal and project related issues, which we will later explain. They are all resolved now, so we can work on the future of SAT² again.

Thanks for sticking around!

Good day all!,

We are very aware of the current problem of the de-listing and lack of volume on exchanges. Most coins suffer from this in periods when there is less (or no) news.
We are still very active (in the background) and committed to SAT² and can't wait to announce what we're up to  Wink

Still waiting for a confirmation on something important, after that, we're free to announce what the future of SAT² looks like.

@bonser24x: Did you try to implement your old SAT wallet.dat in the new SAT² wallet?

We are happy to inform you that Bittrex isn't going to delist SAT². However, we need to maintain this (or more) volume to keep SAT² on the exchange. (Volume is growing a bit on Mintpal and Bittrex as we speak). We will give you an update ASAP.

Thanks for your support guys!

Hi there,

As we posted on Twitter, we are almost ready to announce our future plans! We just need to handle a couple of important things, which shouldn't take too long anymore.
We don't want to make promises we can't deliver.

Feel free to promote SAT² on Twitter and other social media!

Thanks for your support! We will fill you in with more details very shortly.

We will handle all requests made before that date. Don't worry.

We've just processed payments and will process new requests tomorrow in the morning. (And yes, we did receive your PM, which we will process tomorrow).

OLD SAT CONVERSION TO SAT² CUTOFF THIS SUNDAY

As previously announced, we will need to cut off the conversion of SAT->SAT² eventually. Originally the deadline of the conversions (which were handled by Mintpal and Cryptsy) was set to the 30th of June. After that, we decided to keep on processing these conversions manually for those who missed out on the original conversion, which we have been doing for the past 2 weeks. This has taken up a lot of our time, as there have been many requests.

Now the time has come where we'll need to cut off the manual conversions. Firstly, this needs to be done so we can focus all of our time on the new developments that we're working on. Secondly, and even more importantly, the old SAT blockchain is simply running at its end.

We will still be processing requests for manual conversions until this Sunday (July 13th 11.59PM). Any request that comes in before this time, will be processed. Any request that comes in after this time, will not be eligible to take place in the transition.

Note that if you already have a pending (open) request, it will be processed and there is no need to send additional requests. You will receive a response to your request shortly, please be patient.

Lastly, just a reminder about how the manual transition requests work: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=556105.msg7623804#msg7623804

We have some issues with the old SAT blockexplorer, once that one is up and running again, we'll process the payments. Meanwhile we will process the new requests (generate addresses, etc), so when the explorer is up and running again, we can pay everybody at once.

Sorry for the inconvenience, we'll do our best to handle this ASAP. Don't worry  Wink

We are going to process the PM's now! We try to do so once a day.

We're very busy working in the background on SAT². We cannot say much yet, but it's our top priority to make this project a success  Wink

You can still let us convert your coins by following the steps described here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=556105.msg7623804#msg7623804 .
We try to do this at least once a day for you guys, while we're still working on SAT² !


^

We will process the next batch in a couple of hours, so make sure you follow the instructions  Wink

Excellent, thank you for your feedback. The 2 testers I'm referring to, were reporting application load times of more than a minute (which is obviously much longer than it should be), whereas all other testers reported load times of mere seconds. We just want to make sure that this is not application related, so any feedback on this matter is appreciated.

I have a fully specced 2013 Imac with 32 GB of RAM and have as many as 20 apps running simultaneously, am also mining on it and it takes about 10 seconds to load despite all that.

Good to hear! Thank you for the feedback Smiley

Sorry but you missed the boat, although quite how, I don't understand.

ehh right? I guess coinwarz missed the boat along with that 896.49 MH/s of people still hashing SAT out, as of today. They haven't even flagged it yet. It was ok addition to the multipools, but who follows just one altcoin?  I would have tried to convert over if provided more options. However, as a result of circumstances, I think I'm done with SAT. Goodluck with the second release. FYI, to those that haven't exchanged your coins yet. I found you can still convert your coins over on https://comkort.com/ to BTC/LTC/DOGE. Of course, they aren't worth anything now Sad

Really.  I would be embarrassed to own up to that if I were you.  So people are mining something that no longer exists? Well good luck to them.  Serves them right for sticking their heads in the sand.

While that is true to an extent, we also understand that not everyone can watch everything all the time, so we try to work with everyone to make everything as smooth as possible. It's a lot of work on our end though because we need to handle each swap manually at this point. We have even had some requests from people who are looking to swap literally 400 SAT (which would be 0.4 SAT²) - and that's literally less than the transaction fee. As such, I just want to emphasize that we can handle only one swap per person, and that we can only keep doing this for a limited time.

There is 1 problem, pools are still mining sat and not sat2, I did not know this and had auto-pay send my coins to mintpal. Please fix the problem with the pools still mining sat and not sat2. Coinmine.pw is where i mine them. Mintpal emailed me this message today:

We switched over to SAT2 yesterday and we are no longer accepting any more SAT deposits. Please do not send us any further deposits. We may be able to switch over what you sent us thusfar, but it's up to the discretion of the SAT2 developers.

The devs have no control over the pools!  It's up to you to mine at a pool that is on the correct wallet/fork.   

Come mine at LaunchPool.us the only auto-exchanging multipool with SAT2 payout!

Our SAT2 pool is now live and mining SAT2 directly.  When the PoW phase is over, our servers will automatically switch to mining other profitable scrypt altcoins and exchanging them for SAT2, so you can continue mining even during PoS.  

url:stratum+tcp://sat2.launchpool.us:3312
user: [your SAT2 wallet address]
pass: [anything]

Payouts processed every hour at 1 SAT2 threshold.  
1% pool fee plus normal wallet transaction fee.



Cool stuff! As mentioned in a private message: we recommend setting a higher payout than 1 SAT. It's not needed per se, but please note that the minimum SAT² transaction fee on the network is 0.05 SAT², so for payouts of 1 SAT that would be 5%. So it would make sense to use somewhat bigger transactions to make the transaction fee relatively smaller.

Just quoting this in an effort to make sure nobody misses out:

There was only 1 day to convert over to SAT2? Is there no other way to convert my old SAT?




SAT->SAT² conversion, phase 2

For those who missed the conversion we are providing an option to get your old SAT coins converted to SAT² coins individually. This works as follows:

1. Send us a private message (here, on BitCoinTalk), with the following information:
  A. The number of SAT coins you are looking to convert
  B. Your SAT² address where you'd like to receive the new SAT² coins
IMPORTANT NOTE: keep in mind that you have to create your SAT² address in the new SAT² wallet, so NOT in the old SAT wallet. We will be sending your SAT² coins to the exact address that you provide us, so if you send us an address that you can't access on the SAT² blockchain, then your coins will be lost.

2. We will provide you a unique SAT address (on the old blockchain) where you can send your existing SAT coins.

3. Once your coins are received at the SAT address that we have provided you (which you can confirm at http://213.179.192.62/chain/Saturncoin), then send us a response to the private message to let us know. We will then manually confirm that the funds were received OK, and then pay out the SAT² coins (which is the number of SAT coins you sent us, divided by 1000) to the SAT² wallet address that you specified.

NOTE: please be patient while waiting for a response. We strive to handle all requests quickly but we can not always respond instantly.
NOTE2: we will only be able to handle conversion requests for a limited time, so do not wait too long. At a certain point we will simply need to stop supporting the old blockchain.

For the dev: The Windows wallet download link on http://saturn2.co.in/ doesn't work in Firefox (but works fine in Chrome)

Ah yes, I see what you mean. I'm passing this on to our web devs and will make sure they get this fixed. Thanks for the feedback!

This has been fixed Smiley

There was only 1 day to convert over to SAT2? Is there no other way to convert my old SAT?

Sorry but you missed the boat, although quite how, I don't understand.  There was like one date that you had to remember or you could have just left your SAT on one of the exchanges and you wouldn't have to do anything.  Ask the devs if they can help but I think it's too late now.
It can't be too late given that some are still mining the old SAT

We are accounting for that, but do note that we will still need to cut off the conversion eventually. Just as an example: consider the last block. At that point, the blockchain essentially stops, meaning there is no way to send transactions anymore at that point. So it would be impossible to get those coins converted.

Additionally, we also have to account for the security of the old blockchain. The hashrate on the old blockchain will get lower and lower, which also makes it less reliable (the lower the hashrate, the easier it gets to pull off a 51% attack). So at some point (we have not yet specified an exact time, but it won't be long) we simply cannot guarantee the security of the old blockchain anymore. Just to be clear: this is ONLY about the old blockchain of course, the new SAT² blockchain is fully supported Smiley
