https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/5084651DNotes 2.0 Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What is new with DNotes 2.0?A: DNotes 2.0 is a major improvement on the original DNotes blockchain. The new blockchain will allow DNotes and its partner company DNotes Global to achieve its objective to connect DNotes to the modern world of finance and commerce. The new blockchain is faster, more secure, and consumes only a fraction of the electricity. It also allows custom invoices to be created and attached to transactions, and changes the economic incentives of the network to one that encourages savings with the switch to the Proof-Of-Stake algorithm, and paying 0.5% interest on balances that havent moved from a wallet address in a 30 day period (~6% per annum).

The next update (TBD) will include:

Q: How do I swap my coins? (after April 16th)A: The DNotes coin swap process will now be done through a private fork of the legacy DNotes blockchain. We have created this fork to ensure that legacy DNotes holders are still able to swap their legacy DNotes for DNotes 2.0 long after the deadline, in the event they missed the swap. This also ensures we will not be accepting newly purchased or mined DNotes, protecting our users and network.
In order to swap your coins, you will need the following DNotes v1.3 wallet, which you can download here:
http://dnotescoin.com/DNotes/dnotes-qt1-3.zipYou will need to copy your wallet.dat or wallet backup file to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\DNotes1-3 directory, open the wallet application and allow it to update.
Next, you will need an address to send your legacy DNotes in to for the coin swap, you can generate a legacy address with the following instructions:
Create a DNotesVault.com account if you dont already have one.
Login to your DNotesVault.com account, and click the HISTORIC tab at the top.
Click Create Address, and send your DNotes to the address you just created.
Coin swaps will be processed once a month until further notice.
Q: What is the cutoff date for mined DNotes that can be swapped to the new DNotes blockchain?A: We have set April 16th 2018 as the soft deadline. No DNotes mined after this date will be eligible to be swapped to DNotes running on the new blockchain. We will continue swap DNotes after that date, however the process will not be as easy and will take more time. Any DNotes 1.x purchased on exchanges after the 16th will not be eligible for the swap.
Q: Will DNotes 2.0 be listed on new exchanges?We are currently listed on:
https://mercatox.com/exchange/NOTE/BTChttps://stocks.exchange/trade/NOTE/BTChttps://www.nlexch.com/markets/notebtchttps://bitebtc.com/trade/note_btcBeta or Future Exchanges we are working with:
https://blockbid.io/Q: Are the new DNotes 2.0 coins worth the same as the old coins?A: Yes, they are worth exactly the same. However we can not predict what price movements will occur at exchanges once DNotes is relisted using the new coins.
Q: I have Mac or Specific Linux OS, will there be wallets for these? A: Yes!
We currently have Windows Mac Linux Mint Ubuntu Desktop wallets at DNotesCoin.com. If you need something else, please let us know.
Q: Where is the block explorer? A:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/note/StakingQ: What is Staking?A: Staking your coins helps to support the DNotes network, and the network currently pays out roughly 5 DNotes every minute to one address on the network based on a probability that centers on how many coins the user is staking with as a percentage of the total number of coins being staked on the network. The DNotes network pays out ~2% of the total number of coins per annum. If 100% of DNotes were being used to stake on the network, then by probability each user could expect 2% growth in the number of coins they have. If only 50% of coins are used to stake, then those users could expect approximately 4% growth that year.
Q: Can I stake my coins on the DNotesVault?A: You cannot currently stake your coins that are on the DNotesVault, you will need to withdraw your DNotes 2.0 to a local wallet and stake your coins from your local wallet. We will in a future release incorporate cold staking, which will allow you stake your coins while they are safely tucked away inside the DNotesVault. However, we do not have an ETA, it will be one of our highest priorities for next upgrades.
Q: How do I stake?Disclaimer: It is recommended that you properly secure your computer and wallet, as well as make proper backups, before attempting to run your own staking wallet. Failure to properly secure your DNotes may result in loss or theft. If you are not familiar with the process, please start off small and familiarize yourself with the process.
You will need to download the DNotes QT wallet here:
http://dnotescoin.com/#DownloadInstall the wallet (and we recommend creating a backup, after encrypting your wallet)
Go to settings, and then encrypt wallet. Enter your password twice (and do NOT forget it, or you will not be able to access the wallet and we can not help you).
Go to settings, and then unlock wallet, enter your password, and select for staking only. This will prevent any transfers from being made from your wallet without the password while you stake your coins.
Soon the arrow at the bottom will turn green. This means that your coins are now staking.

https://youtu.be/bR66LWPRzAUQ: How do I get the most out of my staking efforts? A: There is no trick to staking efficiently. The factors involved are your coin weight versus the network coin weight and coin weight is the number of coins currently staking. The age does not matter, nor does how you divide or move your coins around.
Q: How much can I earn staking? A: That depends on how many coins you are staking and how many coins are being staked on the network. The blockchain distributes Current Total Coins 525,600 * 0.02 every block, or every 60 seconds. You may calculate how often you are chosen to receive the block reward by dividing your network weight verse your weight. If network weight is 100, and your weight is 5, then you would be chosen for block reward 5 blocks out of every 100.
CRISPQ: Can I get CRISP reward AND stake at the same time? A: Yes, the system is designed to allow you to receive CRISP on a wallet you are staking
Q: What is the CRISP reward structure? A: CRISP periods are every 43,200 blocks (30 day target). Payments start 10,080 blocks (1 week target) from the end of the CRISP period.
Q: What do I need to do to earn CRISP? A: Keep your coins in the same address for the full CRISP period 30 days, set every 43,200 blocks.
Q: When will I receive CRISP payments? A: The next payouts are as follows:
May 1 - Ends first CRISP period.
May 8 - Payout starts. (Virtually no one will receive this payout)
June 2 - Ends second CRISP period
June 10 - Payout starts
Roughly.
Q: Do I get CRISP payments at the DNotesVault? A: Yes! You get CRISP inside the DNotesVault, or at any address you control, such as a Desktop wallet. Though I won't suspect you will be able to get CRISP rewards from the exchanges or other online providers.
Q: Where do the CRISP coins come from? A: The blockchain, these are newly created coins and have now become part of the new coin distribution, just like the staking reward.
Q: How do I earn the interest reward?A: Our Cryptocurrency Investment Savings Plan (CRISP) payouts occur approximately once per month. All coins that havent moved address during that month period will accrue a 0.5% interest, which compounds to roughly 6.17% per annum. If you move your coins during that time, those coins will not receive the interest for that month.
