So browsing through your github I see that this isn't your first coin... globalcurrency... enviromint?? I couldn't help but go on over to the old enviromint discord and see what all went down. It appears that that coin started off with a hidden virus thats steals wallet info. Followed by a mining pool that wouldn't issue any work to miners but mysteriously there was 1 ghost account that was able to mine no problem and no one knew who it was... Idk about you but that seems kinda familiar. For those that don't want to go dig up the old discord ill save you the time. It ended up with the "dev" dumping and abandoning the project without a single heads up to anyone
Thanks for the info. Very useful, especially for beginners!
This is true, we did dump that project as it was flawed from the beginning. We launched without much experience using a coin that was built by WalletBuilders.com, and got in over our heads pretty quickly. We learned from our mistakes and have brought in people to help launch right this time. As we wear our black mark of shame for our first try, we can certainly move forward. Yes, we made a poor choice in launching on a pool that had some errors in setup and had rejected every block that was mined the first few hours, but some went on and mined solo from their own wallets. We wish we knew who the few wallets are that are receiving the majority of the coins, it’s certainly not us. Mining for us has little value beyond keeping the blockchain alive. And for fairness, we’ve shut staking down in our wallet as the premine would certainly have substantial weight on the network and not be a fair. We aren’t even mining at this time, though we do plan to show the end users how they can mine and stake.
Should you be weary of projects like these? Absolutely! But this project has been developed after an epic failure that taught us a lot. Almost all good projects are the result of failure. This time it’s less about the mining, staking or tech community bias. This project is about community, local support and opportunity. We are not resting this project on the backs of miners, instead we are approaching this through the eyes of the end-user.
While we appreciate your due diligence and tenacity to dig up past failures and we acknowledge them, that is not who or what defines this project.
Mine solo for now using setgenerate true -1, you will find blocks. Until we can find a reliable pool that has understanding on how to set up a POW/POS coin, which presents it own set of problems. Also, make sure staking is enabled by using getstakingstatus, everything should be true, if anything is false you will need to determine why to get staking running.
