Hello Community,
I want to update everyone on the progress of things and I'm honest as always just like each team member of Diamond Coin.
I don't want it to be another apologetic message but a frank assessment.
As everyone knows the Block Chain went down last Wednesday (for us it was). As we were working on a new client client for quite some time we thought it would make more sense to release it then and there rather to use hardfork fix on the old wallet and do another hardfork soon after to switch it to Groestl algorithm.
The whole sudden situation caught us with our pants down, but we were convinced everything would work, because it worked in the lab, unfortunately as it turned out soon after it failed in the field.
Some people here accused us of not doing enough testing and, yes we didn't do enough because of the crazy short time frame we had to stick to to deliver a working client for Cryptsy. It was ready by Friday, unfortunately the problem with the database forced us to concentrate on making a patch. After that it turned out that mining pools on stratum do not accept blocks. We had a bit of lax day on Sunday just to have a bit of breathing space as most of us have slept for 4-2h per night over the previous several days. On Monday after talking directly with the pool owners we switched our focus to the code and started analysing its behaviour. We have identified possible sources of problems and now we are rebuilding the code to make it work as it was intended to work form the start. We have our own stratum server and can test any changes confirming it plays nicely so we could be 100% sure we wouldn't see any unpleasant surprises next time.
We have made some changes in the dev team setup which is more optimal and allows for better quality testing. We all agreed that this release in no way meets our quality expectations and to overcome this we decided that we won't limit ourselves with fixed deadlines - we will deliver product that is 100% working with stratum and everything else.
The network is stable now, solo mining is working correctly, coins are transferable, I suspect there would be no problem with setting up working non-stratum 'getwork' mining pool (for the time being), Cryptsy is notified and should be working on implementing the new wallet this week.
I sincerely believe that you as community should not be worried at all, but trust us to put it right. We are working really hard and we won't stop until it's properly done.
Regards,
Alex

Is the problem related to the dmd wallet or is it cryptsy that hasn't updated it yet?
dmd wallet is able handle transactions without problems
yes we have problems with pool mining now and we work on that
but that have no impact on all wallet abilities that are used by a exchange
so

Hi, I would like to withdrawn my DMD from cryptsy.
Will everything be ok if I use the new wallet?
And if I want to send the fund back to the exchange, will it be possible?

I did withdrew my coins after the update and it was alright but now no deposit is possible. They work on it.

Hopefully they implement a proper coin and not another clone.

Is there any working exchange? Where you can deposit DMDs? 
send a cryptsy support ticket it seems they need some pressure.....
I already did. They've said their team is working on it. They weren't very sure when will exactly happen.

I just sent cryptsy a support ticket in hopes they hurry up and get things up and running for DMD.

So what seems to be the issue with the pool? I mean, the NOMP stratum works out of the box with grostl algorithms without issue. What seems to be the problem with the pool? From what im reading the wallet is not accepting blocks? Can someone shed some light on this?
There are several things, that pool software needs to adapt to. From my research so far, here is what it takes:
1. You obviously need an stratum server that properly supports groestl.
2. You need to take into account, that current DMD wallet *does not support tx messages*. Team, please add this to the first posting, as this is important difference.
3. You need to modify stratum server to pay to the dev address for each found block 0.05 DMD (this is 5% if your software expects percents). You also need to make sure that bout is the second one, because this is hard coded in the wallet code.
4. You need to figure out why the wallet refuses to accept the MerkleRoot of any shares you throw there... I am struck here, mostly for lack of enough time to research the issue.
Someone must know the answer, so please guys, speak up!

Ok after a few more hours of playing around I think I might have gotten this pool thing up and running again but of course I need some guys to help test Must find a block!

No registration is required throw ur diamond address in the mix and have at!
NOMP default frontend will be changed if blocks are found to be valid!

I will point some hash this way.
It only updates when a block is found correct ? so you wont see how many workers are on there etc until then ?
show pools overall hashrate.. but other than that not much info is displayed on default nomp frontend
EDIT: bout to head to bed I'll leave this thing up, if this thing doesnt register your hashrate at all or if it goes on for hours without finding any blocks please send me a pm and or post here, I'll read it in the morning.
Can keep an eye on blocks found/rejected @ http://173.175.115.172:15555/tbs
did you solve a block yet?

@cryptonit: do you know anything new about the cryptsy situation?
transactions seem to still be stuck. "generate new address" also doesnt work.

we provided them all required data
its now their turn to implement it
