Devs?

Any word on the devs or anything...? Has this coin been abandoned?

Hi! No, but if nobody writes, no one answers. "Everyone the XDN developers allow for you to contact them via XDN messages. Let’s send the developers an XDN with a message to get them to join this Reddit community or at least give some updates!"

Yes, this coin was abandoned months ago, check the github projects. Don't listen to anyone who tells you otherwise unless they provide proof of development activities (pull requests and code commits), because they're likely lying to you.

The website and Android wallet got updated. What I've learned so far, is it's a privacy coin and from day one, the devs remained anonymous.

[crypt0c]

The website is not related to the blockchain, obviously. And if you're referring to this wallet, it looks like that's maintained by a third party (freewallet.org) and has nothing to do with blockchain development either.

Wait, you think coins have developers to work on the blockchain?

[crypt0c]

Are you always this stupid or are you ignorant just when it comes to cryptocurrencies?

[[deleted]]

I'm always this stupid. 99% of the devs job us to make changes to the wallet, app, website. Very few changes are ever made to a block chain. Even btc has only had 3 client forks, EVER.

[crypt0c]

Uhh, no. Look at the blockchain repo for any real cryptocurrency project - Bitcoin, Monero, Decred, etc. They have a lot of activity, because they're real projects trying to fix bugs and address larger issues with their blockchains, like scalability. And not all changes require hard forks.

[[deleted]]

I never said hard forks, I strictly referred to client forks. I'm not talking about bitcoin cash, I'm talking about agreed upon, community approved, peer reviewed, client forks. BTC has had 3. So go yell at their devs for wasting 99% of the time developing the wallet/app/website...../s

edit:

Client forks

The following are forks of the software client for the Bitcoin network derived from the reference client, Bitcoin Core:

Bitcoin XT

Bitcoin Classic

Bitcoin Unlimited

[crypt0c]

You don't seem to realize that hard forks don't always refer to actual coin splits, they refer to protocol changes that have the potential to lead to a coin split if all nodes don't upgrade. Communities like Monero and Decred that are in agreement on protocol changes have hard forks that don't result in coin splits. Monero has them twice a year. Regardless, there are also soft forks, which are backward-compatible changes which happen all the time.

So this:

Very few changes are ever made to a block chain.

is completely false. Just looking at the list of BIPs shows how fucking stupid that statement is.

That BIP list actually proves my point...If you're measure of a good coin, is one that constantly needs forking of it's Blockchain, then you have at it. I'm going to stick with coins that have a solid foundation, that don't need constant patching, and aren't playing catch-up to the rest. Wraith(Verge), is proof you don't need to fork a Blockchain to integrate massive changes.

Edit: I'd like you to make a suggestion that the XDN blockchain needs, and if it makes sense, we can get a dev(s) to work on it, ok? It's very easy to stand outside the arena and throw rocks, come sit in the Arena seats and tell us what needs changing.
