are you sure?
2^32 = 4294967296 and not 65535. this would mean the hashrate is extremely high...

but:
my pool says it has a hashrate of nearly 0.4GH/s and it gets nearly all blocks, so i'd guess the net-hashrate is somewhere at 0.4 GH/s

Definitely believe we have solo miners under the woodwork that dont talk or participate in the community.

I operate solo due to smelter only allowing solo mining. Though with my setups if I could mine pools, I would. it wouldnt be to hard to distribute my hash rates out across everyone's pool to help stabilize the distribution.

Seeing 1/8 of my profits go to the creator suchs, but understandable for him to take a portion of profit and not release pool based miner. I give smelter props regardless

Hello MoonMoon,
Please forgive my using so poor English communicating with you. Long been one of the most loyal fans for you, this is my first time to post a message to you in the forum. And I hope sincerely that you can understand the meaning of my every word.
1. My team has been in charge of the promotion of Particle in China. For a long time, the promotion and marketing activities have been carried out very smoothly. Currently, we are keeping a close contact with the most valuable altcoin trading platform in China(that’s btc38.com), and Particle will be added to the database of this platform before long.
2. We also attach great importance to the peripheral activities for Particle, and quite a few campaigns are being launched tensely and actively. For example, we designed and produced commemorative T-shirt for Particle, we issued commemorative silver coins for Particle, we are developing a large-scale online shopping mall where people can shop by paying Particles, and we as well are developing some entertainment platforms for Particle, etc.
3. Particle is very popular in China now, and you got quite a lot of fans, and all of them are very enthusiastic. What’s more, we have made an exclusive commemorative silver Particle coin for your own, which could have very high collection value. We hope that you can authorize this coin in the post, and send me your receive address. The coin will be soon delivered to you.
      However, now it comes some quite serious problems with Particle. The market broader malaise caused by MT.GOX Event is now still continuing. And also, a lot of people quit because they didn’t see the new version of the Particle wallet for a long time. What’s more, now in China, large numbers of new altcoins are flooding into the market, and funds in Particle have been diverted heavily to other altcoins. This could be a very severe and unimaginable danger. In order to help our Particle promotion team and all your sincere fans to walk out of the woods, we hope that you can release the V2 version of Particle wallet as soon as possible. Even though it is not yet so perfect, but people can still see the tangible thing. That will greatly facilitate our publicity and promotion, and more people will be attracted to support the growth of Particle. With regarding to the issue of mining, although the hash rate of Particle now is very low, we are still very confident to attract more miners to mine PRT in the support of new version of wallet. We believe the price of PRT will fly again as long as you can support us. Thank you.
Particle China Promotion Team: JiuGe

this is what I want to say

you are very loyal too loyal

i love this coin

Moon I think you should take your time and get the wallet right the 1st time so you wont have to do quick fixes after its released

second thing is just in case the wallet is not disruptive enough of a app to draw people in the way we all think it will it might be a good idea for you to start thinking of what can come right after the wallet iono maybe put up a poll to see what the community thinks should be worked on next. I know i want to see Particlebay our version of Ebay.

me too

Yes, everybody wants it now :-)  But its pretty cool that these folks are backing particle and producing t-shirts etc. so I have to respect that too.  I was doing the more rapid releases to try and keep the interest up, but then we start falling into the feedback loop of wanting to change the wheels on the bus while we're still accelerating

As for follow on projects - there are a few threads I created on forum.bitparticle.com to try to solicit input and ideas.  We've had a few good ones to add to the list.  I was trying to build a list of 20 projects to start.

At some point once things really start to pick up I'm hoping someone sets up some sort of foundation/project site, like a kickstarter or just a basic tracking site kind of like what the quark people are doing.

The PRT price seems to have been sitting pretty stable for now.  Once the wallet and reference app store is out then the real focus is going to have to shift to marketing and social media and amplification of our message, expanding our reach on more exchanges, etc.

Ok back to work
