Happy new year guys. I'm back from Holiday and ready to continue working on the coin.

The new features that I've been working on have required lots of risky changes to the KHC protocol so, more developer testing is required before I can release a version with all these changes.
But, for the mean time, I'm preparing a Wallet version 0.70 that will only contain important bug fixes. I'm planning to release this version after block 150,000 gets mined in the next few weeks.

Also, since most of the problems with KHC have been related to the PID algorithm to calculate the difficulty re-target time every 100 blocks, I'm seriously considering getting rid of the PID algo altogether and switch to a more standard approach to calculate the diff. Don't get me wrong, the PID algorithm was a pretty neat addition to the crypto-world but, in my opinion (and after a lot of pain debugging every possible corner case), the PID algo has only added unnecessary complexity with no apparent benefits to the KHC protocol.

Finally, about the cgminer getting stuck issue. I began experienced the same problem after I reinstalled Windows on one of my miners so, I'm going to debug what's going on.

Good to see you have returned, I might have a few ideas in terms of what might be a great path for the coin. The banksters have really screwed the pooch this time and that might prove to be a great opportunity for a 'PennyWeight' defined currency that has taken security to the next level by a capable programmer. Wouldn't it be nice to have a currency that is versatile, not fiat and isn't managed by people that have watched too many Pinky and the Brain cartoons? World commerce is at a standstill right now, it is about the time for torches and pitchforks, the world needs a solution and not another Ponzi scheme built by banksters that to date have gotten a free lunch playing God whilst relieving the people of their gold putting them in debt so they can come after everything.

Edit: The major dependency of the blockchain is that it is run over the internet which presently has a kill switch, here's a thought: Run enhanced BTC protocol using 4G/5G wireless protocols over distance friendly ULF HAM. The only thing better is not having it under control of a bunch of crook banksters corrupting governments, religion and commerce.
