***  ALERT * WATCHONLY-GUI BUG * ALERT ***
____________________________________________

Greetings, friends at OctoCoin! As Komodo Platform has been working around the clock to fine-tune the multiple GUI's that are the face of our Agama multiwallet and BarterDEX atomic swap protocols, there have obviously been many bugs found and many debugged. However, one bug in particular was found not only in our Agama GUI wallet, but also in the zcash4mac GUI swing wallet. It is a simple bug, but it warrants your attention. This is a potential money cost bug.

OctoCoin (888) - As a Bitcoin-protocol cryptocurrency, your GUI wallet(s) may be susceptible to this bug.

ISSUE: 'watchonly' addresses appearing as your own in GUI wallet; users could potentially send funds to the address, unaware it is not theirs or available for withdrawal.  You can import and it becomes a 'watchonly' address. The GUI will display the address as yours, add its funds to your balance, and accept deposits, but cannot be withdrawn. This could be a normal address, my address, a p2sh address, satoshi's address, etc. This can be confusing to an end-user and will lead to many headaches for the developer, as is always the case with misplaced funds.

FOUND: in Komodo Platform's Agama multiwallet (fixed) and zcash4mac GUI swing wallet (@jl777b: "newest QT wallet seems ok about watch only, but not sure of older and when it was fixed")

ex. @grewalsatinder found the bug in his zcash swing wallet: https://i.imgur.com/sVd0QTL.png

Quote from: jl777B
"satinder used zcash4mac, ie. the zcash osx GUI, not ours... the assumption is no GUI out there properly handles watch only addresses, until proven that they do... agama also had this bug, which we found and fixed, so it seems a very common bug to have"

SOLUTION: For the 'watchonly' address or any address not yours, the value 'ismine' returns false. Any such address gets filtered out.

QUESTIONS:
  • How does your recommended GUI deal with watchonly addresses?
  • Does your GUI display watchonly addresses as different than actual addresses in the wallet?

We need to experiment a bit to see which approach gets a better response triggering the bug. People WILL lose money if they send funds to a watchonly address.

Quote from: jl777B
"the t3 addresses in the 'Own Addresses' column! and they absolutely cant be as they are p2sh addresses. it is clear proof that the bug is very real and anybody that understands a p2sh address will understand it cant be something in your wallet. it is usually a multisig address, so only if it is a 1of1 multisig (possible but very silly) can you have a p2sh address that is spendable, but the wallet wont even know it... normal addresses can also be watchonly, which makes this even worse. in that case it would appear in the list of addresses just like all the others. even if you are able to spot p2sh addresses visually, it wont be enough"

I've been tasked with spreading awareness and facilitating discussion of this bug, so please let me know if you have any questions. I'll get you some answers and we can minimize the impact. We wanted to reach out directly to the developers of the 60+ coins featured on Agama and BarterDEX as the bug may have a direct impact on you (via your own GUI wallet).

Why is it self-moderated? lol

Never noticed until you said it.  I'm not the dev i just mine octocoin.

Whats the problem with a self-moderated thread ? 

People's comments can be deleted by whoever made the thread... If people have issues with something, their post can be deleted and no one will know. I am not saying that's what they will do, just saying why I don't like self-moderated threads. Some people claim they make it self-moderated , so they can delete all the people talking dumb stuff, but I don't believe in that reason either.

OCTO is planning an alpha run for it's first Fantasy MMA/Trading Card game. Any Octocoin holders who burned for OCTO, you are invited to try this out! We will host this on www.theoctoparty.com. We are currently working with our artist to create the first trading cards that will be represented by tokens to be played/bet in game. Entry fees will require OCTO & 1 OCTO Fantasy MMA Trading Card. We are still working on the details, but when you purchase an OCTO Fantasy MMA Trading Card while in Alpha, the point bonus for that card will be higher than the point bonus for similar cards that release in the future. The Alpha cards also will be locked to keep them rare and limited edition. The Alpha stage will last a few UFC events to work out the kinks points/rules wise.

For those who burned Octocoin for OCTO, this will finally be the first real use! You know where to find us Smiley

Is OCTOcoin still mineable? Also what would be the latest windows wallet to download and is there a list of pools that OCTOcoin could be mined at?

looking forward to the new wallet! great job building it! once it's up, i'll donate some 888

and OCTOPARTY, you left this community, don't post here promoting your coin. it's bad form.

I still own Octocoin... and I missed you so much dj that i just had to come back. I said I was glad to see someone build an Octocoin wallet. That's not promoting OCTO.

Coins have an interesting name. coin is difficult to extract. soon there will be a reduction award twice. besides many coins were destroyed.
there are all indicators of a rare coin. someone has to do support. I understand the creators refused further support? virtakoin with the same situation, however coin found its admirers.
