I am back, so back

Viacoin 2.0: Build on VIA

Twitter: https://x.com/buildonvia
Website: https://buildonvia.org
New Discord: https://discord.gg/ReS5cz8M6H

The new Via is an L2 EVM-compatible Bitcoin zk-rollup

Right now, we are close to testnet.
We do have a pitch deck, but it needs to be updated.

Old holders will most likely receive an airdrop for their old Via or can swap for new tokens. (Nobody will be left behind)

oh, it's been over a year since I heard about Viacoin and I thought no one was mining it anymore... so it's not game over for this powcoin yet? happy to hear it...I wish Romano the best...

Hey, development is still ongoing for the new Via with multiple developers this time

I know it takes "long" but it's a lot of work for the new chain. Then there's also a testnet launch and security audit

Any discord link?


Is there any where to buy Viacoin right now? I know project looks dead but on the off chance you do decide to give it another go i may as well add to my bag.

Yes, here https://atomicdex.io/en/downloads/
Wallet and DEX in one app (Desktop, Mobile, Web) that has VIA listed.

I don't think Viacoin is listed

It IS listed, though there are problems with the only known electrum server. Luckily somebody (not involved with VIA) decided to set up another one. Problem is that VIA is using lots of resources, mainly RAM... because the chain is long and has a short block time, so it also grows fast.
If there would be a community, eg on discord it would be much easier to coordinate such things and find people who are willing to run a server, eg the ones that hold a ton of VIA.

Yes, it really eats memory
Howeber, in the the new VIA reboot, it won't be a UTXO bitcoin fork anymore

And sure, telegram room: https://t.me/+Aq6PqFalORk4MzMy

(Invite link will only be valid for 1 week, just to avoid bots)

There's no Discord group yet for VIA

I think they have a discord community. I was there yesterday trying to find out about the quality of the project after seeing hype around the listing of the project on Bitget. Maybe this might help.

https://discord.com/invite/octavia

That's a different VIA. A project took our ticker.

Viacoin is not dead...

When a wallet doesn't work(Node list anyone??) and no known pools are claiming to be mining it(Except mining-dutch who has a block height way out of whack!), I'd say it is DEAD.



Here are some listening nodes to get you started:

Code:
addnode=136.144.207.246
addnode=112.74.45.139
addnode=47.90.245.73
addnode=47.91.77.232
addnode=47.89.189.197
addnode=67.43.1.184
addnode=91.206.16.214
addnode=[2a01:7c8:d001:1c1:5054:ff:feee:3e1a]

HTH
seeder is already fixed, I was busy trying to upgrade somewhere in November & December

    Uniswap useless tokens designed to ponzi pump.
    Lock in tokens + eth to suppl liquidity.

    Musically chairs, all fun, liquidity swaps removed & the music stops.

    Developer still active ? latest github was on april 2020.

    Forced to admit that Romano abandoned the project. All holders were deceived. At the moment, we have nothing to grow altcoins, VIA is in place, and will soon fall to 0.

    Are you sure of this? you are in contact with Romano? where did you find this information?

    Compliment for tried the FUD little troll flashtr0n....
    I've been building up my reputation since 2013 and people think I would just give up like that?
    Even if I have waste hours thinking, coding, and put my own money into development with uncertainty for getting the project hyped again. I will simply do it.

    Just lots of things I wish I did myself. Like the Viacoin website, some people once hired disappear in a bear market.

    2 weeks ago.
    Rough year, rough black swan moment, COVID but I'm on to something.
    Decided to help/work for an exchange. Asset listing etc etc

    All comes down to, extra knowledge, contact, and info.
    Extra liquidity due to receiving payments which I can use for development.

    Been still paying bills for servers etc etc

    reminds me, block explorer needs to be renewed

    Lots of news announcements planned and stuff coming up.

    That also includes new Viacoin Core versions. Maybe even 2 new Viacoin Core versions this year.
    Possibly 2 versions before the summer ends and more.

    How can you help speeding up the process?
    If you can't code to help us, consider donating to https://viacoin.org

    We raised $950 in March which helped a lot.
    This month, for now we only raised $150.

    And yes every donation helps. Past months we paid a lot out of our own pocket.

    Is there any 2019 road map? After seeing the last drop in price I decided to look a bit more in depth I to this project to see if anything. Now I know Romano justified the lack of updated on the github lately but I'd like to know why isn't the website and the roadmap isn't updated to 2019 and also ask if there is any major news or partner ship coming on ? Thank you
    Oh I almost never update the website. Lack of github commits ON MY OWN GITHUB ACCOUNT this month is just because of me being sick.

    That roadmap we published originally was way way smaller. We added more things to the map. Things that we came up this year with and for example that I finished within a few weeks or days.
    Or improving an app/wallet etc self is not on the roadmap.

    I actually think that roadmaps are old fashioned. The industry moves so fast, coming up with new ideas & finishing quickly is doable for me & adding it to the roadmap is confusing because people tend to not see the new roadmap item add.

    Things that are difficult from the roadmap is Schnorr, MAST and smartcontracts.

    For the rest, everything is doable. (I should update the website more often)

    Revisiting the Website https://viacoin.org I found it's stuck "Loading" in Chrome and IE11 but not Edge. Now that's a first!
    Needs to be fixed. Your addblocker is blocking coinmarket.
    We use their api on the website.

    Hi Romano, I'm Interested in checking-out v3.3.4.1 but the signed checksum message isn't verifying (like when I verified v3.3.2.1 by copying the entire message with signature to via.asc then using Kleopatra to Decrypt/Verify).

    Instead this time It's coming back with the following error:
    via.asc-->via: Invalid signature
    With Certificate: FB5B BA3A 16BC 6AF0 D2A2 1D61 3F92 368F 0D21 A206
    The signature is invalid: Bad signature.

    However the checksum for the portable version I'm interested in trying is checking-out so I'm sure it's fine, I'm just a bit cautious.

    I may have messed up with my keys or something. Will check if there's something wrong with my PGP.
    These are the correct hashes
