Update: Unfortunately the old version doesn't work any more because the new version re-indexed the blockchain before it failed. I advise everybody who wants to try the new version to make a copy of their blockchain.

So were you able to launch the new wallet? How it failed? Any error messages?

Nope, the wallet didn't open, it failed just before it opened. This message appeared in the terminal:

Code:
./blackcoin-qt: symbol lookup error: ./blackcoin-qt: undefined symbol: _ZN6QDebugD1Ev

Transaction fee is not enforced as a consensus rule
Accept blocks with unknown version
Replaced stake min age with min confirmations
Limited drop of difficulty per block
Made special marker nonspendable (the empty tx out)
Added nonspendable encoding for block signing key

I downloaded the binary for Linux and when I try to start it it fails with this message:

Code:

Help!

Wallet Obsidian Dev & Erik Voorhees at Digital Economy 15

Quote
Wallet Obsidian developer JP Richardson will be a panelist with Erik Voorhees at Digital Economy 15 on Friday, October 2, 2015 in Omaha, Nebraska, USA.

http://digitaleconomy.io/

Coincidentally, Erik recently mentioned Blackcoin for its privacy features. https://youtu.be/Ilnb7Mx0nBQ?t=5m8s JP developed those privacy features including stealth addresses and custom stealth pseudonyms for Wallet Obsidian. That panel will certainly be include some fascinating discussion! You can be sure privacy issues will be discussed and hopefully BLK can be part of the discussion.

Please join us to support JP, Blackcoin and digital currencies generally at Digital Economy 15.

Please consider showing JP some support:

I would actually assume even higher for the lost coins (probably close to 1% are sent to bad addresses alone over the course of a year, and crashes without backups, forgotten passwords, etc. another 1% probably).  The cumulative growth is certainly much less than 1% of the total mintage when you factor in the huge number of coins sitting on exchanges not being staked and the similarly significant number in paper wallets or other cold storage that are forgotten for more than a year at a time.

My guess would be that moving forward, 'inflation' of 1% will probably look more like 'deflation' of 2-3%.  At least until a time when there are a ton of places to actually use BLK (or any coin for that matter) regularly as opposed to simply holding/trading.  Basically, until you can buy gas, groceries, clothing, music, etc. crypto is fundamentally only a vehicle of speculation and an academic/social experiment.  Hopefully that will change, but at the moment it is what it is and nothing more.

blk have %1 per year
so it means in many years ... infinity amount of blk ?
theoretically. I would assume that the 1% more or less equals the amount of coins that get "lost" over a year, though.

I'm wondering if there is any way to force the staking mechanism to stake certain coin blocks ahead of others, especially when the coins are much older in terms of coin age?

I don't understand why I have many coin blocks (~42,000 coins in total) that last staked between 2 months (June 2015) to 1 year (May 2014), according to what's showing in coin control.  Sad

reservebalance could be used to block larger inputs from staking set it to a value lower then your total balance and only the inputs that fall under the difference between the reserved amount and your total wallet balance will be allowed to stake.  
another thing i've noticed is BLK wallet needs to left open longer now to stake, no more "instastaking", have to let it run and node for a bit.  i think this was another improvement that was added to last release so as to reward those that provide better support and protect the network.



the problem is that these 42,000 coins are in multiple different blocks which range from ~1 BLK to 100+BLK so unfortunately reservebalance won't help. Also, when I set the reservebalance, this increases the time to stake since the reserve amount is not counted towards my coin weight. thanks for trying though! You're right that there's no more instastaking though. This was changed in PoS v2 where the coin-age was eliminated from the stake weight calculation. The stake weight is now based on the total amount of mature coins in the wallet. Coin-age still factors in the PoS reward calculation however. I'll pose this question at the subreddit and see if anyone else has any ideas...

you should try command line -zapwallettxes

EDIT : wallet code too old.
could dumpwallet / rename wallet.dat / importwallet


thanks, will give that a try

Anyone know how to remove unconfirmed transactions from the wallet? I have a bunch on staking transaction that were generated but not accepted over the past couple of days and would like to remove them.

Also, I have coin blocks that range in last staked dates from last week all the way to May 2014. I figured some of these would have staked by now, especially the blocks from last year. Is this anyway to increase the stake priority of the block? They all seem to be set to "highest" already.

Do you really expect anyone to recommend you some Ponzi-Sites? I certainly won't.

Easiest way to get BLK would be by retailer, exchange or shapeshift.io, check our subreddit, all relevant information is linked in the sidebar.

Let me just jump in here. If your going to bad mouth other coins at least make what you say correct or you sound like a child. bitbay wasn't created as an ICO scam.
It was, in fact it was back then one of the biggest scams in the altcoin-crypto history, then easily surpassed by Garza and his minions. If I really wanted to talk bad about BitBay there would/could be a lot more detail, but it does not belong here and I don't care anyways. If there had not been a question why BitBay is not "at the same level" as BLK i would not have mentioned it.

None of our community members talks about other coins (in this thread) unless someone takes it to here from "outside" and we reply something.
