Re: [ANN] Viacoin (VIA) – Safe | Segwit | Lightning Network | Auxpow | Fast

I read it a while ago. Like I said, why rush it? There’s no need for it yet & implementing it before pools are ready only pushes miners away. I commented about this in the previous thread & dev thanked me for the heads-up, then BAM – it’s happened anyway. It doesn’t make any sense to do it before miners/pools are ready for it.

thats why its being tested extensively, dev could have released it untested a long time ago just like some other coins did and then faceplanted on bugs that led to hardforks and problems.

i cannot comment on pool readiness but afaik dev has been in contact with major pools, and also runs a segwit ready pool

I talked about it in the Viacoin telegram.
Yes rushing is useless. Right now I’m concentrating on fixing more on the vialectrum client side wallet.

So here’s what I said in the Viacoin telegram room.
“Romano RNR:
I need to do some final fixes on electrum. Got a small issue to fix.

When that’s fixed, I will execute the next steps. Electrum client will be Segwit ready & it’s possible to support Ledger nano & Trezor

The client needs to be renewed, because the 2014 one is unacceptable for a professional coin.

And yes a lot of people use it, I don’t want to hear any transaction problems when they start using it (like people will make a lot of transactions when Segwit singaling starts)”

Romano RNR:
“For are Avarage Joe’s
Electrum wallets are wallets that don’t require to sync.
You download the wallet, open it & ready to go.
No hours waiting. For the busy business man.

Also doesn’t require a lot of space like the core wallet

Now whales use electrum wallets offcourse. What will they think if the electrum wallet is not working smooth at all?

Yeah indeed that would look embarrassing. That’s why I need to stabilize this first.

And for the late investors who bought above 10k sat & are nervous.
I know it looks ‘bad’ but don’t forget my vision & work brought Viacoin above 10k sat.”

(Why?)
