Expected Delays

Hash: SHA1

This will come as somewhat a disappointment to many of you, but I believe it is necessary if we are to be secure from the start. We are currently considering adding hours to the launch time to allow us to continue fixing bugs and patching security holes that have been uncovered. In addition, it is likely we will disable the bitcoin process on launch until we can gauge the traffic more accurately - this is to protect your bitcoins as high traffic sites and bitcoin processes do not work well over Tor.

I will try to keep you updated, but launch time will probably not be 4:20PM UTC I am afraid.

We've waited nearly a month, a few extra hours to patch up security holes is fine by me. TBF, I'm (happily) surprised we've bounced back so quickly, no need to rush though...

Thanks for letting us know. Take all the time you need - security is key and releasing an imperfect site would be foolish. You're doing great.

Ha ha, this is exactly like the old DPR.  He'd set a deadline for completion of the scheduled maintenance.... and then extend it....  and then extend it some more!

All those over-excited SR fanboys (and girls) need to take a deep breath and relax.   I'm sure it's going to be ready soon....

Some might see this as a downturn of events, but it gives me even more confidence in the new marketplace.  The fact that the good captain is willing to delay the launch rather than let it launch incomplete or insecure shows that this is not a site that is being built in order to turn a quick quid and then disappear.

If there are security concerns they should be fixed before the site launches, even if it takes another week or two weeks.  I am sure you are all working very hard to get everything ready for us as soon as possible, and I cannot wait to see the fruits of your labors.  :)

I wouldn't worry at all about the delay. Just keep on fixing it till it's safe. If we could wait this long few hours or days won't kill us.

As everyone else said, totally understandable. I'd rather the launch be delayed another month than have a site with loads of security holes and whatnot.

Keep up the good work!

Good point DPR.  Also, I'm thinking that the new SR may take a while before the variety of listings are anything close to what they were on the original SR.   I know the SR crew have been pro-actively bringing old vendors back into the fold, and I'm sure there'll be plenty listings to get us started, but it's hard to imagine the new marketplace having the immense variety of listings and competition we had on the original SR.  I expect it will take several months for us to reach that point....    I am very eager to check out the new platform though....   ;o)

p.s.  4.20 am perhaps?!

98% of the people that would be looking to access the site at launch time aren't buyers anyway, just window shopping and admiring all the ins and outs of your new site DPR. Take as much time as you need, security always takes precedence.

Delay time is still not certain, but none of the team have slept in 70+ hours so we might need a little few hours before we go unconscious.

I think most people where expecting delays, they are almost inevitable. It is of up most importance that the site is 100% secure and is not launched unless it's a finished product. Keep up the good work DPR! Oh and Happy Guy Fawkes to all! :)

I would like to take a moment to send out a heartfelt thank you to the team over at the Road.

Your hard word, dedication to our security and desire to create a truly stable marketplace is heartening. Something I feel was needed in these troubled times. It is my most sincere hope to see the new Road launch and rise like the Phoenix from the ashes, glorious and unbroken.

Such trivialities as this delay are insignificant all things considered.

I will be waiting and watching with eager anticipation on bated breath. I expect to land on the new market today and will be grabbing booth my buyer and future vendor names (will bond up once I feel completely comfortable with the market).

Should the market prove stable I expect to be around a good bit.

Again thank you, and Namaste to each and every one of you, the team and you wonderful forumers as well. It is easy to salute the higher nature of those seeking such freedoms in a world of oppression. Love you all!

Cheers,

Hit the nail on the head, Alfred. I'm glad that security is taking priority. Personally, I'd rather wait hours, days or even weeks, for the new SR. The other markets seem to have some major security flaws.

Good things come to those who wait :)

It is important to realize that throwing off the timing of the market also throws off the timing of the LE's- they run on a strict payroll schedule. Perhaps this will cause them to waste more of their resources on a war they can't win!  :D

Take the time you think you'll need and then add a week to it.

Security and operational matters are paramount, ignore the deadline and be 110% all is right would be my advise.

Agree with all sentiments here....

Security and stability are way more important than adhering to a launch time, or date even.

It's ready when it's ready. Take all the time you need - and sleep before you launch definitely.

I'm probably not the only one with butterflies in the stomach. Feeling a bit like a kid at christmas eve.  :)

Only now at my age I can control myself, and don't mind to have the butterflies flying around a bit more. Especially because I feel pretty assured that the people working behind all this, are the right people.

Keep up the good work  :)

Hey, @DPR, I've been around here a while, and been on the old market since early 2011.  Mostly psychedelics, weed, MDMA.  I've made some wonderful buyer-vendor relationships, and I'm really happy to see that you are continuing this proud tradition we have.  If you have all been up 70hr+, maybe half of your team should start working in shifts, while the rest sleep? anyway, make sure to eat your vegetables! 
 I was really high on LSD the other night, and I was thinking about how important of a moment in history this is- it has only been about 5 weeks since SR went down, and you're back up so soon!
         I wish you only the best, your tactfulness and dedication is appreciated!
        If there is any, any way I(or the community) can help, let us know, I am here for you.
                  We will happily follow any course of action that you initiate...
                                  -GGG

dpr you think running yourself into the ground to patch holes is the best way to approach security? you need to take another week and look closely and recheck and then check again. i mean if the site goes down we'll just go to another but this is your life you are playing with.

I'm stating the obvious here but perhaps the team should consider a nap. I like the sleeping in shifts idea.

A problem always has a new perspective when one is rested and then a solution to that problem might come easier.

I'm stating the obvious here but perhaps the team should consider a nap. I like the sleeping in shifts idea.

A problem always has a new perspective when one is rested and then a solution to that problem might come easier.

Absolutely! No hurry, guys. We can make any day the 5th of November.

Hey,no problem DPR.
I have no problem with waiting until you are happy that it is in a fit state to be launched.
This cannot be rushed to just satisfy a few impatient souls.
Let´s make this one work even better.
Whenever you say it´s good is also ok with me.

...DPR work your magic!  As it should be, safety first!  Delays should have been expected and that's a great sign that your not trying to rush things!  No need for any type of apologies or anything, you do what you need to do and take as long as you need!

Words cant express the thanks this community owes DPR and the whole team on making this happen.  But none the less, thanks DPR.

Hey - DPR, even NASA delays rocket launches if one or another thing isn't quite right.
Looking through the comments all over the forums, you and your team certainly have the full support of everyone here. You certainly have mine, and if I could help in some way, I would. Grab some shut eye mate.

Agree with all sentiments here....

Security and stability are way more important than adhering to a launch time, or date even.

It's ready when it's ready. Take all the time you need - and sleep before you launch definitely.

does the new launch time mean full functionality (BTC transacations etc)? or will it still be limited in terms of btc deposits/widtdrawls?

Some might see this as a downturn of events, but it gives me even more confidence in the new marketplace.  The fact that the good captain is willing to delay the launch rather than let it launch incomplete or insecure shows that this is not a site that is being built in order to turn a quick quid and then disappear.

I am in total agreement with Alfred on this one. The news of a delay, for me, is a reassurance of the responsibility and levelheadedness of the administrative staff. Anyone who has worked on a domain release of any magnitude or complexity can vouch that bugs will crawl out until the very last day. It is a constant struggle to patch and monitor your work. Count your blessings people... the blockchain is still an unstoppable force, BTC has remained bullish, and we even get a release timer from the admins. What more could we possibly ask for?  We don't want to pull a Healthcare.gov here guys!!

i really hope registration goes through with all the ppl that r going to be flocking to the site. And wouldnt that raise a red flag on the TOR network with all that traffic to one place?

Finalized launch time - no more delays :)
4 hours 42 minutes remaining.

I know it would be lovely to keep the 4:20 launch time but please delay further if necessary for security or for the mental health of you and the crew.
