Hi, no you have to download the official wallet from deeponion.org and you will be able to stake your coins there

yep, I think they'll update tasks there from tomorrow

Did you update your C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\DeepOnion\DeepOnion.conf with the latest nodes (click here)?
Maybe your router or your firewall is blocking the ports that are used by the DeepOnion wallet.
Maybe your connection to Tor is blocked and you need to use OBFS4 or MEEK, but this is NOT common.

Start with the DeepOnion.conf and update the nodes from the link I provided.
Work your way up from there. Some members can help you to forward the port used by DeepOnion Wallet because I don't remember the number.

There is only one post at the community mentioning "onion hostname" and it seems to be related to port forwarding.
You can join us at the community, I'm sure more members will be willing to help you there.
If nothing worked, you can create a Support Ticket at the community forum.

I really want to see the new whitepaper, it will be so much better than the old one!

Seconded, can't wait to see it. The current one already looks fairly dated - just goes to show how many developments we've had since then.

Thanks for the recap, I'm waiting big news you've mentioned with envy

It blows my mind how many features and ideas the Development team have in store for deeponion, with whats been achieved in barely a year, not even, most coins haven't even achieved in 3, 4 or 5 years

Not many linux experts here. I suggest you visit our community forum. Many experts there with linux like @dragononcrypto, or you can also hope that he may spot your post here and answer you.

You can also try to search the deeponion.org/community using the error you got, maybe someone else had it before you and received an answer.

I understand that you don't want to sign up to many forums, I'm the same actually. However, it's way easier to get help in the DeepOnion forum than here, you might have noticed that a lot of users post in this thread and posts tend to get lost among other posts. The DeepOnion forum has a special section where users can make a thread to get the support they need.

You got to be more precise in what you ask for help? Where do you see this error?
