Good stuff! These are the reasons I identified Shadow as a winner quite some time ago.
As the article states, there aren't a lot of coins for sale. The limit on Shapeshift is always less than 1 BTC, and frequently over the last couple months I bought all that was available.
Sometimes having to wait a few days before they had more. The other alternative is a bidding war over a small amount on Poloniex, or Bittrex.
I'm betting SDC will take advantage of upcoming timing and news. There are many reasons why we could see explosive price movement in the near future.

Well that exchange doesn't affect SDC price. It's volume couldn't move Poloniex or Bittrex price anywhere.

Hello,

I try to sync wallet qt but it stops at block 783001 (88 days ago). I tried restart it few times, then i deleted bootstrap and restart again but it didnt help.

Any ideas?

code: And do "addnode=explorer.shadow.cash" while you're at it :slightly_smiling_face:

I dont know how to do this, im noob:)

code: Version 1.4.0.1 is outdated, you need the latest one.

Always download from the project's Github release section: https://github.com/shadowproject/shadow/releases

The team provides checksums to verify authenticity and credibility.
Best practice is to verify these and make sure you're not downloading bad software that could steal your coins.

Here's a tutorial: https://slack-files.com/T041VEVPE-F0XJMRHL7-caa4bb6576

Generally it is people who are trying to FUD in the thread that want to get cheaper coins before the market build up comes.  Sound familiar?

How the fuck do I know man?  It'll happen once the right people accumulate the right number of coins.

All tech since the dot-com era has had this problem. It is mostly due to the relative youth and inexperience of the people in the biz and the market. The dot-com scam itself was caused by the availability of online trading. People who didn't even really know what stock was could now buy 1000 shares of whatever with a few clicks and not having to deal with a brokerage, and history shows the result. Ebay is one of the few survivors from that era and what set them apart was they had real tech and a unique business model that was capable of making money from day one. Most others had something intriguing, but no idea how to monetize it, just hope that somebody would figure something out.

Shadow seems to be taking the former path, producing a market that will be usable in the real world with an appropriate cryptocurrency on the first day it is available. Sort of like Ebay, but you can buy awful stuff too.
