They haven't touched their social media since 2013 and their website is barren.  They do seem to be on a little bit of an upswing in the market, but I don't know if it's from people actually believing in the project or others just trying to make a quick buck.

dear Cryptovation and pondi ,

i did as directed but the client is reindexing at 232 weeks .... not syncing... i thought it would be a few minutes...  i did copied the client from the rar file  from this site url=https://github.com/quark-project/quark/releases/tag/v0.10.6.3  ...... rather than extract

can you help ?

Did speca ever come through with helping on the dev side of things or is that not going to happen here now?

Masternodes are pretty much up on every new shit coin hard to believe quark is experiencing such a delay in rolling out what is now such a standard feature.

Looks like we have a fork!! Any bright Ideas on how we fix this?

Spend NOTHING, Move NOTHING until this is sorted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think they should add more people to their team, maybe a more moderator in their forum, or more bounties and events to make things more lively and active. It would be cool if they've become more active to people. To be honest, Quark is not getting much attention so I think something needs to change.

Wallet fully synced and I encrypted my wallet then restarted it. Now it's loading block index for 3 hours. Is it normal or I'm doing it wrong?

We need a wallet that doesn't HOG resources.... I'm running the new 0.10.6.3 on Linux and it's eating 2.1 GB of memory. 2.1 GB! That's just nuts! I hope the devs address this soon. No wallet using that much memory will ever become mainstream.

Forced to resync blockchain from scratch on windows 32bit version.
After 16 Hours still 3 Years and 23 weeks behind.
Network Traffic Showing 81Gb Received, That's right Gigabytes. WTF

I've Killed it and given up on the 32 bit version.


I see I'm not the only one requesting a bootstrap.

The website is the international exchange of BTC38, which has been officially launched in recent days and is expected to have a new height and congratulations.

Will we be able to keep coins in Cryptopia through the fork?

is quark broken again??

out of sync again here

Is there a timeline for the new wallet with masternode capability?

i don't know way but my wallets are at 4841635, and explorers at 4841624 .... something happen here and i can not find the problems...

i am using wallet version 100601, do i need to roll back to 100405 ??

Do you know how many QRK is needed for a masternode? 
If we have a rough idea of how many are needed then buying them up now is the price to do it.

This is not only not confined to quark it is present in much stronger terms in many other coins.

I insist NOBODY including max got easy quark from mining. I was there at the launch and if you mined you got quark the same as everyone else.

Same for the markets nobody ever did anything much with quark (max) so i don't think he got many explaining why the coin was left to sink to near these levels for months before bill helped raise interest and price.

Max probably still does not have many hence his not giving a much time or effort to the project.

In fact the largest whales accumulated their quarks at a much higher price so I have no idea what they are thinking it's like they bought tons up and just forgot about it.

If a coin swap was done i would guess many whales and a huge amount of quark would not even get swapped.

If anyone wants to dispute anything i have said here bring evidence to support your statements.

Quark is  a strange project and up unitl now a huge wasted opportunity.

Sadly the best chance we have right now is to just wait it out for max to review each improvement a slowly integrate it with quark.

Although he will not explain or has not explained why we must go through all this instead of just jumping straight to pivx latest build.

I can only imagine (although this is speculation from a non tech view) he is not fully versed on all the pivX implementations and would not know what to do at this stage if something went wrong.  After all pivx has like 20 devs working on it.  I guess now we just have to wait for max's reviews as and when he has time. This is not a great position to be in but he is a proven developer and until we have a better option there is no point of putting a unknown developer with not ties to quark and no reputation on this board in charge of a 4 yr old coin that has kept going all this time.

I do not want max as lead dev because he is too slow and does not give enough time to quark and does not answer simple questions on this thread. Although right now there is no better option sadly. He obviously can not be that money driven else he would be buying all this up at 100-50 sats and putting some effort to get this back to 10000 sats or greater.

I think he simply has a good real life job and is probably already wealthy and not hungry enough to do all the work needed to bring quark to the level we need. So therefore he is not suitable for a lead dev position and would be better to suited to just code reviews as he has said.

The course of action should be this.


1. group buy a ton of quark at these levels and created a development pot to attract some know and good dev teams

or

agree the new code base with comes with a large and worthy dev tax for them

released only for milestones acheived

2. use our contacts on this board to make sure developers realise the opportunity here.

Icos are now dangerous. Quark is a pow coin where essentially the devs can not only accumulated a lot at 100 sats levels but also have a constant reasonable flow of quark for their efforts to rebuild a very famous and mature project.

OR

we just have to wait for max or specca to come through with something. Max is apparently going to review masternodes to go with the pos that has been already integrated so there is some hope there but it will be a long haul and this project needs much faster pace.

Speca is learning more crypto but starting a new job in a new country? that says to me very little time left for other things for quite some time.

 
My last post asking max a straight question was deleted by him . We will need to start a new thread if legitimate questions simply enquiring again why we are going step by step here rather than straight to a new pivx latest build  are deleted. This is not the sort of moderation a decentralised open source project should have.
