Ok. Others, start pledging. I've contacted another dev who could possibly try to take over. It will take some time as they are busy.

In the meantime, my node is up, but stuck at the same block like all of you.

It isn't an investment decision, it is a participation one. You could choose not to participate and your existing holdings of BITS will still benefit from the resultant reduction in total number of coins following the burn process.

I have explained that the app is being developed by my company and, as an experimental project which may or may not be released as a final product, it is and will be subject to the usual levels of commercial sensitivity and confidentiality.

This isn't a crowd-sale, it isn't a funding exercise, it is merely a way for the new coin to be fairly distributed and create a sufficient level of vested interest that those who participate will be motivated to run staking wallets and be willing to co-operate with any updates, amendments or modifications which we may ask the coin's development team to make in order to better suit the needs of the app as it undergoes development and testing.

There is 38 minutes left....

Here is the countdown
http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?p0=136&iso=20141012T06&year=2014&month=10&day=12&hour=6&min=0&sec=0&msg=Staking%20Fix&csz=1

So then why is there a countdown? I thought that it was time sensitive.

If you are running 1.0.5 wallet, you are on correct chain, then yes. I already staked 269% first time there.

24 hours

So what you are saying unclepeter is that in the 2 hours or so since the switch to 269%, any blocks that stake will get say 22 hours at 1% annual, and only 2 hours at 269% daily?

No they should stake at 269%. I had over 4000 confirms and staked 16 coins in block 10101 off of 3 coins.

we are talking about blocks after 10100. I can list a few also. I already sent some to myself. I dont want to wait 8 hours to be told thats what I have to do anyway....  I had about half my seed in one chunk so made SOME, this issue is only gonna make more people upset...
edit: whats the smallest amount someone can confirm they got 259% for?

vegasguy, with respect that's wrong. If you have staked 0.05599925 as I did in one block, and it was accepted - the reward should be 0.1506 not 0.00001. It has nothing to do with the size of the block.

Edit: Looks to me like they are staking at the wrong percent

Thats the current block we are on, so hopefully we will see your stake come in soon.  It might take a bit longer than TRK to stake because the block has a bazillion transactions in it.

we going to get Paper-online wallet & Android wallet soon and going to start Video promotion to this coin and much more are coming soon

Price will keep on increasing it will not depend the number of coins out,lot of miners will hold the coins until the price goes up...
