This is one of the most concise and well referenced concerns about Invictus I have EVER seen posted....
 +5% well done solaaire

This one really hits home. And it appears that everyone agrees, yes?
You guys, PLEASE, take these concerns to heart.

We all believe your ideas and talents hold SO much potential, but so far your public relations have been borderline disasterous I believe IT IS a testament to the strength and forgiveness of this community that some of your blunders have not resulted in greater calamity. I am not even talking about missed deadlines (The reasons for the delays have largely been justifiable,  and most of us, even if we don't agree with every developmental decision you've made, are trusting of your ability to soundly execute your plans.) What I am referring to is a OPENLY apparent lack of Public Relations management.

I am not looking to place blame, because I am not privy to the inner workings of your crew. But you MUST find a solution! And for heavens sake, many, many companies have great PR. You guys CAN DO THIS. But first, you must RECOGNIZE that is your weakness!

Bytemaster, you mentioned in last Saturdays mumble chat that you are aware of a personal need to improve your interpersonal relationship skills. That is totally fine! Many of us have weaknesses far more embarrassing or shameful! But your company WILL SUFFER if you do not figure out a way to begin solving this problem immediately. And I think I speak for the majority when I say that IF you DO find a solution to this weakness, we may all be sitting on an Absolute GOLDMINE, both personally and collectively, that could unlock the potential for an ENTIRELY NEW ECONOMY!
Step up, and figure this out! Nobody doubts that you are capable!

General Discussion / Compassion and Integrity

Regarding the unfortunate mistake of our friend ebit:

The Outpouring of sentiment and willingness to assist this fellow is admirable and commendable. Whilst we endeavor to assemble our ideal trustless platforms, it appears many of us remember that empathy and willingness to trust are still (and will always be) central to our humanity. If I had made such a blunder, I would be grateful and humbled by this show of support. I believe that mr. bytemaster (and tonyk) have proposed a possibility that does not dishonor, dilute, or compromise the integrity of the social contract. An honorable action, if implemented.

Fear, uncertainty, and doubt will be cast and sewn, as it has been for time immemorial. I have discovered, however, that these three concepts (FU&D) actually serve a noble purpose, one that is indeed vital for our evolution and growth. What better way to uncover the hidden eddys and backcurrants of our own uncertainty? How should we sharpen the blade of our convictions but upon the the most well thought out arguments against our plans?

We all prefer different things, we all have different styles. We might discover that motives can be pure or impure, well thought or whimsical, firm or reactionary, etc., but we can never expect to truly comprehend the motivations of another human being. We often like to fool ourselves into believing we can.....

"But all this FUD is hurting our cause"

In some ways, it would be great if nothing ever pushed our buttons, right? But here in reality, can we honestly justify worrying about the effect someone's opinion might have on others? Can we not at least have faith that those others in the community - AKA ones whom we are learning to trust (ironically, by building trustless platforms together) -  possess enough integrity in their convictions and faith in the process of what we are trying to achieve together that they can transmute this elusive "FUD" in their own way?

We, with Invictus at the helm, have attracted a number of individuals who are brilliant at presenting masterful counter arguments to our strategies and plans for implementation. How is this anything but a great honor? if an idea is not truly revolutionary, would it attract such highly skilled dissent?

Guys, I know I haven't written much, but I am a long time observer and supporter. I purchased the Lions share of my personal AGS the week after the Feb. snapshot. I know potential when I see it. And it is openly apparent in all observable aspects of this operation. Keep it up. Cheers!

thanks toast!

How do I access the private keys in the PTS (version 1.0) wallet.
I am not looking for the wallet.dat, but the individual private keys.
Thanks!

It might sound a bit odd, but let's be sure to record these hangouts and post the files somewhere for easy reference. Also, a usb headset will drastically improve your sound quality. ;)

I agree with @currencydebt.

It may sound silly, but numerical superstitions are prolific in Chinese culture, and I'm sure everyone agrees it probably would not be wise to accidentally exclude large portions of the Chinese....

The four best choices:

7,000,000
8,000,000

38,000,000
49,000,000

Many people are inquiring about the snapshot of the PTS blockchain. (For the BTS genesis block).
I wonder if someone might briefly clarify:

Will it occur on February 28th at 12am GMT? (meaning the beginning of the day on the 28th GMT)
Or Will it occur on March 1st at 12am GMT? (Meaning the end of the day on the 28th GMT)
Or Will it be a snapshot of the final block of the PTS blockchain on the 28th(GMT)?

Thank you in advance!
