Sorry everyone, I've been busy moving and I can't figure out why these transactions are stuck, also I've asked two other devs and theyre confused also.

Can everyone please try adding this node

addnode=158.69.200.218
or
addnode=positroncrypto.xyz

so there is proper checkpointing again, it helped before.

Thank you and PM me here if you want to help do something with this project or have any questions about it.

Bittrex is having transactions problems again but I can't duplicate them and there is nothing in their logs. Is anyone else having problems with stuck transactions?

Also the market is up for delisting because of volume again. Nobody trades much but it will still be on Cryptsy if it ends up delisted from Bittrex.

I've got 3 people helping to figure out this large stuck transaction problem but we're having trouble duplicating it and i can't just ask to borrow Cryptsy or Bittrex's wallets.

I'll be spamming the networks with transactions starting Monday afternoon EST. If it breaks the coin I'll roll back the blockchain and fix it, but it's unlikely.


The problem will get resolved even if I have to do a full coin swap.


Most of the updates are happening in the slack Positron chat, which is public (all history also) - If you want an invite, please send me your email in a PM. You can google for "windows slack client" or your preferred OS, or use the web interface.

I do have a certificate from an SSL authority but for now that's just a temporary  SSL certificate generated on the server during testing time. I'm not sure if I'll stay with this system as a base because its quite slow. There's about a few dozen active users so any changes will be announced first.

I'm still working on this project in my free time and will be supporting it more aggressively in the future, but right now the demands of real life are taking the focus.

I've been working on getting this email service up for days, its running but the performance is far too slow. If you'd like to help with beta testing please send a PM here or on Slack with the username you'd like.

Thanks

who gives a fuck, just use gmail like a human


It is well known that Larry Page reads the contents of your Gmail to advertise to you. I would much rather have Mr. West reading my emails thank you very much. #TeamTron

Cheesy

Yea, thats exactly the point of this open source project ive been digging around in. Storing all the data encrypted so even if someone wants access to all your emails, they cant unscramble the data without your specific account password. There is also an option to send encrypted emails to others.

It's still a bit slow to respond but you can create an account and try it out here. More theming and modifcations will come and also some faster servers once users start coming.

Up for testing, may be wiped don't use permanently yet: https://tronmail.org

IMHO keep what already exists running and up-to-date before moving on to new things. The ANN needs some cleaning up and the website needs some renovating. Undecided

Working on it. It's been a long process to get this client side encrypted email service up and make sure its properly secured. It's forked off a crowdfunded and open source project I've been following, but the official installation instructions involve downloading too many precompiled binaries. Instead I am compiling everything from source separately and doing a lot of tests. I'm keeping a log of the efforts and additional security measures so maybe I'll post it later.

With that, I can start building a user base both inside and outside crypto. Then the ANN and website start getting fixed up.

Just stop man. We all know this project is dead, why try to prove otherwise? We had a nice run, now move on.



I'm dedicating the next few weeks to working fulltime (or more) on TRON, and I'm aiming for daily updates.




took you two days to fail. Dude, your problem is that you permanently fail. This coin will never ever jump back to 20k sats plus. You have good intentions, I believe that for sure. But you are like 90% of so called "entrepreneurs". They lose steam after they hyped themselves into something they can't cope with because of their poor skills. You belong exactly into that category. The funny thing is that you totally freaked out this time and made your name public. Jesus what did you expect from yourself...
Stop telling people shit about being dedicated to TRON. You launch coin after coin and go for quick bucks with scamming people. I bet that you have been involved with at least 6-7 coins in the last 3 months.
Please don't respond to this as I am tired of reading your shitty posts. Thanks

TRON was funded by a large chinese investor and a team of about 8 to 10, who eventually all moved onto other things (as is usual in crypto but I was hoping for different this year) ... I was left with all the work and I would still like to turn it into something positive. Perhaps I should just give up instead, but I really wanted something big for TRON, at that time there was a lot of money and people also hyping me up. Positron is the only coin I've developed this year, I've been contacted for contracting jobs doing coin development but so far haven't taken any of them, this year. I sometimes freelance things like fixing broken coins or assisting with forks and tech problems, and keep those confidential. I haven't even bothered to mine many coins this year, its usually not worth the time anymore.

TRON was hyped way more than I ever expected, and with the lack of sleep and frenetic working pace, I got wrapped into the hype just as much. At the time I was given a lot of resources and a large amount of BTC to use to pay contractors and other people to work on the project. Eventually the largest holders seemed to decide the market wouldn't keep afloat, or planned it all along. I doxed myself because at the time I believed in the investors and the people I was working with, that we were gonna build something great. I worked on collecting peoples real names and pictures to put as members on a website and everyone was also excited to be doing something that felt like a tech startup, and great ideas flowed around. Then the whales started dumping,  through my own supports multiple times until I lost any profit I had made from TRON, then investor pulled the funding and support. Most of the people that had been so excited started dumping also and left to go work on other things. Now it's just me and the Slack idlers, and I'm still going to try to make something of the project. There isnt much interest in it for now, and thats OK but I dont want to just let it die. There wasn't much interest at all in the last plans and I'm still considering entirely changing the project. It started as my own independent project, and then investors became involved later, even though it bubbled and now is in serious despair like most alt cycles, I will keep working on it because I feel like it's mine.

Surprised, i will say nice work/could be promising.  But honestly for now it just looks like another pnd for now at least until it resettles.
I agree, nice movement yesterday but it does look like a pnd. I like the fact that it is a more transparent system though without those Directors forum which I never believed in.
My main worry is what can be achieved by only 1 dev.

I agree also... the price spiked too far, I think because of a thin sell side.

I've been talking to a dev who wants to remain anonymous right now, but is interested in helping out.

I've also had offers of collaboration from the HYPER team and two marijuana coins.

Yes, with just myself as the main dev, it's a lot of work. And there was no ICO or crowdfunding for anything in TRON (which is why im working off another open source project for the encrypted email right now, they raised $550,000 to develop it, which I don't have) so i have to work some real-life freelance gigs too. That means sometimes development will sometimes be slow, but always ongoing.

I'm working on getting some new things together for this week and will try to have daily updates. I want to keep this project alive and make something good and appreciate the vocal support.

I've added a bunch of people to the now-public Director's Slack room and all it's history, if you'd like an invite please PM me an email address.

Thanks!

Two things will be coming in the next weeks:

A fork and/or addition to the great Coinomi multi-coin android wallet, adding support for TRON and shapeshift integration.

An encrypted and secure email service by Positron Technologies, free to all cryptocurrency enthusiasts. This is to build a userbase for future projects and ideas. This may take longer time but plans will be explained.

Time will tell I guess. Side question: 'How much do masternode get?' I've setup one and get about 1.5 coins a day, is that normal? If so that isn't much at all and can't really see the incentive to setup a masternode.

It isn't really worth running a masternode right now, but hopefully in the future it will be. There's a lot of growing to be done.

Re: [ANN] [TRON] Positron Technologies - Project Changes - Open Directors Room
by
cryptowest
on 22/08/2015, 05:47:34 UTC
A lot of the original support and team backing I had on this project is gone, and the original vision is being reworked. I made some assumptions about the market that were incorrect and I'm working on modifying the entire operating plan of Positron. I have good ideas and some solid plans coming together.

The first major change will be that the separate "Directors" room and it's chat history will be public to anybody who supports or is interested in TRON. No more exclusive directors room, I would like to invite anyone who supports TRON in any way. I hope this doesn't upset the existing "Directors" too much but I believe the added activity and support will benefit everyone. Nothing there is really private anyway and I never wanted an exclusive room, it was pushed on me by holders who wanted to emulate Arch at the time. (April)

If you'd like an invite, please send me an email address in a private message here.

another cryptowest/prometheus scam coin in the books.

"this time it will be different"



Well, I don't like the original vision anymore. A crowdfunded shitcoin incubator (even for good ideas) isn't the right move in these markets, especially with the growing legal complications around digital currencies.

One of my personal passions is computing privacy (outside my public persona) and enabling privacy for inexperienced users. I'm making strides to transform Positron Technologies into a security and privacy company and keep it integrated with TRON in a legal manner. I'm required to remind everyone that TRON coin is not a stock or token representing Positron Technologies, this is important to make clear and will be clarified more in the future. There was no presale, ICO, or IPO for TRON coins, as they were mined publicly by anyone interested. TRON is a cryptocurrency based software system to manage access and datas in future Positron Technologies projects.
