what's with the increased hash rate and price all of a sudden? sign of news to come?

Volume has been REALLY low the last couple weeks.  Most likely, someone with 0.5 BTC to burn just bought up the price to 0.00016.  With increased price, comes increased hashrate.

Someone taking advantage of the 1:1 offer, to the fullest, no doubt. (Like I have done, with the purchases I made.)

Why settle for less, when you can have more! Tongue It's a stale-mate. Few left who can even settle for less, so it has no place to go, except up. Now we know the solid floor. Unless someone wants to sell at a major loss. I am sure those few individuals are gone, or have already cashed-out.

My strategy is, buy more on the floor, to take the average value of all my holdings to a lower loss. Now I can sell for much lower than before, and still make a gain, in the future.

10,000 at 0.00210000 BTC/AIR and 10,000 at 0.00007000 BTC/AIR = 20,000 at 0.00108500 BTC/AIR

Just a mini-update...

AIRteam is working on a fix for the issue. This "glitch" should be resolved soon.


As for my coin, I have some things in the works, since AIR has decided to keep this coin maintained, along with the new coin. My coin would have been a compliment to AIR and other ALTs, not a competitor to them. However, that is too off-topic for this thread. (At the moment, I am distracted by assistance with AMT miners, which is going to hold me back from developing anything at the moment. Feel free to contact me, for future reference, if you desire.)

I still mine and buy AIR, and have faith that this will become more than most think, at this point in time. It is one of the few coins with its own background processing services, which will not depend on third-party services. Though there is still a lot I do not agree with, about the coin. (That only limits my participation, which is still participation.)

RE: Aircoin and the 1:1 offer, I'll post my address here now rather than think I have to keep checking back on this thread to see whether I have missed the 72 hour verification period, here: AFnSf83T12Dug8CvxtnCeN94x6oD2cXNWb

One problem with their business model is that we may be on the cusp of an enormous backlash against HFT in traditional markets which will probably spread to crypto's

Though as there is a strong lack of visibility into crypto exchanges that might not worry them

ISAWHIM you seem to have so many ideas and know a lot about crypto. I think you should create a coin with your ideal specifications for us to mine. Smiley

Why not?
Actually it could be a good idea...with so many shit coins appearing every day, with some collaboration between us we might come out with some nice specs and ideas for a coin.

Might want to mine another coin until this is fixed... Would be sad to think that all these mined coins would disappear. (That was a joke.)

Safe nodes...
1: Shut-down AIRcoin wallet.
2: delete "peer.dat"
3: add these nodes

addnode=107.170.20.200
addnode=188.226.182.21
addnode=54.186.33.252
addnode=75.151.232.141
addnode=188.165.194.96
addnode=5.250.177.28

This will not stop them from connecting, but ensures that you have some safe nodes, so those rogue-nodes are not the only ones you find.

Nice program... PeerBlocker... (Back from the days of winMX. lol. Still works great for many reasons. Nice blacklists too.)

Sadly, does not support ipv6

just noticed my wallet suffering the same issue. Followed you steps and wallet reports no synching issue. Thanks!

I operate air.carbonshark.com and the IP for my server is in ISAWHIM's safe list. (75.151.232.141). This pool is synced with air.pitythepool.com, so at least the two remaining major pools are on the same chain. As a matter of fact, I have moved my miners from my own pool over to air.pitythepool.com to balance some of the hash rate. I saw carbonshark hit over 100% of the blocks, and I did not want to risk a fork. If anyone could move some miners over to air.pitythepool.com , it would be helpful. The hash rate is up about 40% as I write this, and the diff is climbing.

Hmm well I wouldn't expect any updates over easter, hopefully there will be an update on progress next week. I've bought all the Aircoin I'm going to for now, time to take a break from mining and trading and start moving my coins over to linux now the Xubuntu LTS is out

Thanks. I've used peerblock for many years. If I remember correctly some aircoin pools are blacklisted by peerblock.
At least Okaypool was/is and maybe airpool.org was too. Can't remember anymore.

edit: With your suggested nodes, I seem to still have the same problem with synching. "0 hours remaining" and "Processed 43471 of 551316 remaining". Maybe I should try to synch the wallet again from the beginning.

edit2: Did not work! I'm not going to touch my wallet again until teamaircoin sort this "fork" out of the way.

Though it says you are not synched, you are... those nodes are not sending the block-data, they can't, they are invalid blocks.

You have to look at the first number... "43474", if that matches the block-chain, then you are synched, and can mine without issues.

Seems that another coin is using the same rooms as AIRcoin, for broadcasting. AIR should be rejecting them, for version mismatch, as I told them they needed to do before. However, until whatever coin, or hacked-program, stops broadcasting in the AIRcoin rooms, this will continue. (This can happen if you clone a coin, and don't designate a "private IRC channel for broadcasting, with a seed-confirmed password, or encrypted output"... if this is not a purposeful attack.)

The subversions are waaaay off... and old, so I assume this is not the AIR teams "new coin". Easy to block with a new update that just rejects subversion "/Satoshi:*/", since the only valid subversion is "/Satoshi2:*/"

Should not be difficult to find the culprit coin, as we know the block-height for the bad coin is "551325"
(Pssst, It is LTC)


Could be a check-point issue... did they turn-on auto checkpoints, but forget to tell it to generate checkpoints for AIR, so it made one for LTC instead?

So now the block height is back to normal and wallet seems fine so what happened? Is this developer caused?

No, it is still abnormal... you might just not have a sour node connected. Whoever is playing with the modified chain (since it is still growing), has to connect to the real chain, through at-least one node. (Seems that connection is still in my list, as I still have the "0 hours remaining", and "Processed 43441 of 551304 remaining", on my running wallet.)
